BUFFALO BILL

The Academy was well filled last evening on
the first appearance here of Buffalo Bill in his
new play entitled "May Cody; or Lost and
Won." The piece is much better than the
average border drama and presents many
good opportunities all of which are improved
to the utmost by the excellent company that
Mr. Cody brings with him. The rifle shooting
of the Austin Brothers, the whip-cracking of
"General Harney" and the appearance of the
aboriginal chief with the unpronounceable
names are great attractions.

Mr. Cody's acting has been mentioned so
many many times in our columns and is so well
known to the Cleveland public, that it is
unnecessary to say more than that the new piece
presents another phase of the varied life of
the great scout on the border. Miss Ada Forester
impersonated "May Cody" in exceptionally
good style and won the heartiest favor of
the audience. The "Darby McCune" of Mr.
George C, Charles is an excellent piece of
comedy acting and created much laughter
throughout the evening. The entire piece is
interesting and holds the close attention of
the audience. It is peculiarly free from the
usual blood and thunder features of the average
border drama.
