Buffalo Bill and the troupe are becoming more popular as the time for the close of the engagement draws near. The "Red Righ Hand" last evening drew a perfect jam. The play is in some respects more exciting than "Life on the Border." There is an air of reality about it which helps the ideal presence of the play wonderfully. There is also any amount of fun in connection with the play, as well as much that is thrillingly sensational. We cannot particularize as to the rendition of characters. The play gave good satisfaction, and the players were frequently applauded. The closing tableau, representing the first scalp for Custer, is very fine. There is a running fight with the Indians, and Yellow Hand and Buffalo Bill meet. It is a hand-to-hand conflict, fierce and soon over. [Illegible] Buffalo Bill snatches the recking scalp from the head of the chief, and holds it up, the tableau represents Custer dashing at full speed into the thickest of the fight. It was encored vociferously. This evening a new sensation, entitled the "Scout of the Plains," will be presented, with new scenery and improved stage effects. Friday evening still another and greater sensation of Buffalo Bill will be at the matinee Saturday afternoon, when the "Red Right Hand" will be presented. Saturday evening Buffalo Bill will be in Carson. Next Monday Tony Pastor and new attractions at National theater. | 191National Theater.
