BUFFALO BILL'S PLAN.
What the Great Actor and Buffalo
Slayer Thinks of the Modocs.
He and Texas Jack will Clean the Reds
Out With Neatness and Dispatch.
[Correspondence St. Louis Democrat.]
PHILADELEHIA April 29.
Walking down Chestnut street, last evening, musing upon the Quaker City and its peculiarities, its Quaker hats and the Centennial to come with Quaker guns and Indian Commissioners, I was startled by the appearance before me of two noted Western. characters, namely, "Buffalo Bill" and “ Texas jack!” who have recently closed a very successful butchering engagement here at one of the theaters. As most of your readers are familiar with these two men. I will not attempt any description of their dress or manner, which was much the same as when they were “staring” it at the Grand opera-house in St. Louis, save that the always ruddy countenances of each seemed still more so, and there was a display of ornaments in the jewelry line that show money had not been scared with two worthies. Ascertaining at which hotel these knight of the
MOCCASIN & BUSKIN
sojourned , I sent up my card requesting and interview, and which read as folllow:

This style of card at $2.00 per hundred
Discount to the Trade.

If not accepted please return to the undersigned as never carries a large stock.
J. NOEL DE SNOOLS,
Perambulating Laar and Moral I mizer.

The bell boy returned in a few minutes bearing a sadly-worn three spot of clubs, upon which was written in bold but not perfect hand.
Pass bearer to Buffler Bill’s room. That's the kind of a man I am.
WM. H. CODY
Alias Buffalo Bill.
