LAST NIGHT OF BUFFALO BILL.

The performances of the Buffalo Bill Combination commence with a farce, and as there is a brace or two of excellent comedians in the troupe, there is no difficulty in presenting the best of the farces and light comedies in the most acceptable manner. This has been noted in the present engagement. Last night, and at the matinee yestarday, "Slasher and Crasher" was played. But the centre of attraction is in the play in which Buffalo Bill appears. At the matinee yesterday afternoon the house was crowded, which was something unusual in a mid-week performance, and the house was largely filled in the evening, when the afternoon's play - "Life on the Border" - was repeated. It is a better play in all respects than the "Red Right Hand," but partakes of much of the same characteristics of border warfare and Indian fighting and slaughter. There is something of romance that runs through the play, and considerable comedy that relieves its sanguinary features.

LAST NIGHT OF BUFFALO BILL.

The performances of the Buffalo Bill Com-
bination commence with a farce, and as there
is a brace or two of exxcellent comedians in the
troupe, there is no difficulty in presenting
the best of the farces and light comedies in
the most acceptable manner. This has beenj
noted in the present engagement. Last night,
and at the matinee yestarday," Slasher and
Crasher" was played. But the centre of at-
traction is in the play in which Buffalo Bill
appears. At the matinee yestarday after-
noon the house was crowded, which
was something unusual in a mid-week
performance, and the house was largely filled
in the evening, whwen the afternoon's play--
"Life on the Border"-was repeated. It is a
better play in all respects than the "Red
Right Hand" by partakes of much of the
same characteristics of border warfare and
Indian fighting and slaughter. There is
soemthing of romance that runs through the
play, and considerable comedy that relieves
its sanguinary features.
