70 THE HOME OF HISTORY AND HEROISM In concluding this sketch of the pioneer, military and managerial career of Colnel W. F. Cody, and of the historic characters and silent features with which Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World has mad emankind familiar, it is worthy of value and perfection even surpassing previous efforts and splendid successes. As indicated by the published programme of performances, the result is such an historical, martial and equestiran triumph as but one man could organize and but one country produce. It is at once a colossal Object School of living lessons and an entertainment radically and exceptionally differing from all other exhibitions, in that it is actually a part of the romantic past it perpetuates, and vitalized by the presence of some of the most noted makers of the frontier history they illustrate. There is no "make believe" about it; nothing that seems to say, "We will now give you an imitation of somebody doing something," and it does not in any degree rely for its success upon the display of sensational feats that have no other utility than mere spectacular exhibition. | 70 |
