73BUFFALO 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 Forster 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. | 73 |
