The Prairie Waif.

Buffalo Bill in his play of "The
Prairie Waif '' appears at the opera
house to-night. William has never
been slighted with a small house in
Logansport in his many comings and
goings, and there is no reason to believe
that to night will be an exception
to the rule. The Council Bluff's Nonpareil
says:

"The entertainment afforded at
Dohany's last night by the celebrated
Buffalo Bill company, appearing in
"The Prairie Waif," was witnessed by
one of the largest audiences ever assembled
in this city. Mr. Cody representing
three distinct western characters
showed himself to be an actor of
considerable merit. His exhibition of
marksmanship, shooting slices of potatoes
with his gun in all conceivable
shapes, was not only interesting but
wonderful. Hans, the Dutchman, was
personated true to life by Jule Keen,
while Miss Jeannie Gilbert, as Onita,
and Miss Nellie Lingard, as Sadie,
came in for a good share of applause.
The trick donkey Jerry, 'took the
house by storm,' and the band of genuine
Winnebago and Sioux Indian
Chiefs, in their wild and weird songs
and dances entertained the audience
in a novel style."
