Buffalo Bill's Dutchman and the Prairie
Waif Combination opened a three
night's engagement at the Threatre last
evening in the sensational border play.
"The Prairie Waif." The audience filled
every seat, and was as enthusiastic an
audience as could be desired. The play
is the same that Mr. Cody gave on his last
visit to Buffalo, but it has been judiciously
revised and re-written until it is as good
as new. It is, of course, a story of the
far West, and gives the hero ample opportunity
for the display of his peculiar accomplishments.
In the second act, he
gives an exhibition of fancy rifle shooting
which is very interesting. The plot of
"The Prairie Waif" is connected and
more interesting than the usual run of
border-dramas. The indians with the
company are genuine, Indians, and their
songs and dances are at least novel. -- Buffalo
Express.
