Opera House "The Scouts"
[This line is illegible]
Morlacchi, Wild Bill, [?] was simply aston-
ishing. Probably the auditorium at that
building was never stormed by as large a
crowd of people [?]
packed full, when it appeared impossible to
get another person in it, but last night was
certainly [ahead] of anything ever seen there
before. Hundreds went disappointed away
as they were unable to get inside the door.
The seats, boxes, gallery, stools, aisles,
stairs, railings, and evey possi-
ble inch of standing room
were occupied, The doors on the side of the
dress circle were opened, and many [?]
took up their position in the halls, standing
on stools and peering over the heads of the
audience to try to catch a glimpse of the
stage.
The beauty and accomplishments of [Malle?]
Morlacchi are well known, and the celebrated
[?], as usual, charmed her audience
into the most enthusiastic applause. The
[?] must be seen to be appreciated,
and we advise those of our readers who have
not as yet witnessed her remarkably grace-
ful dancing and posturings to go to the opera
house tonight and see her.
In the farce which opened the performance
Morlacchi had a good opportunity of [?]
her peculiar talents. She speaks the Italian,
French, and Spanish languages fluently, and
her English has just enough foreign accent to
make it pleasent to hear. In this farce-
"Thrice Married" she sang one or two
Foreign songs in a splendid manner, showing
that she possesed a remarkable con-
bination of talent. [?]

[illegible line]
a fair shar of vocal talent, but [Morlacchi?]
is gifted with a [?] which
though not of much power shows
great [cultivation?] and sweetness. The drama
of "The Scouts of the Plains" is of the high-
est sensational order, and aside from the [?]
[?] who [prevent?] it [?]
[illegible line]
Wild Bill, Buffalo Bill [?]
[?] to draw out a crowd. These men ap-
pear on the stage with great [?] and of
course bring out the [?] of [?] life with
great power and natualness. Their [?]
is very good. The physique of Wild Bill is
splendid, and indeed the same may be said
of them all. The appear again tonight,
and probably the same [?] in regard to
the crowd will be expected.
