"BUFFALO BILL" - Park Opera House
was well filled last evening to witness
the five act drama entitled "Life on the Border"
as rendered by "Buffalo Bill," (Hon.
W. F. Cody;) ably sustained by Kit Karson, Jr.,
and a talented Metropolitan Company.
Mr. Cody, as "Buffalo Bill," the
western judge, jury and executioner, a
gentleman of commanding figure, enacted
the role of the frontiersman admirably,
and with his fine looking contemporary Kit
Karson, Jr., was frequently applauded
"Old Sloat," Joesph V. Arlington, a trapper
and one of the boys, filled the bill to a nicety,
and T. Graham as Jebadiah Broadbrim.
A Peace Commissioner showed himself
equal to any task, except killing red skins,
hugging bears and winning the love of
"Ireland," the fair Betty Mullany. Grasshopper
Jim, H. having performed his part
excellently, sang an Irish song and kept
the audience in the best of humor. But
we can not particularize, suffice it to say
further that all the parts were well sustained,
and that the entertainment was
well received.

The season's engagement will conclude
this evening with "Scouts of the Plains."
