Success of the Wild West.
Buffalo Bill appears to be undergoing again the experience he met with m London. The big arena at Sixty-fourth street and Stony Island avenue, where his hordes of Indians and Tartars and bands of soldiers are giving what is undoubtedly the best and most exciting exhibitions of rough riding, marksmanship and other feats of wildlife, is overflowed with spectators twice daily, notwithstanding the fact that there is seating capacity under the ample roofs for 18,000 people. There is a spirit of recklessness that pervades the entire performance which affords an absorbing interest for all kinds of people. The arena is situated at a point where all means of transportation to the World's Fair come to a common center, so there is but little more difficulty in reaching the place than if it was located downtown. Not the least interesting part of the Wild West is the camp of the Indian and Asiatic riders, and the lines of tents and tepees are visited daily by hundreds of sightseers.
