178PRINTERS SEE THE WILD WEST. Buffalo Bill's Show Crowded--Parade of the Company and Cowboy Band To-Day. That Buffalo Bill's Wild West is one of the most popular entertainments in the city was given a thorough test yesterday, when at both the afternoon and the evening performances the immense grand stand was packed to suffocation, as it usually is on Sunday afternoons. Over 30,000 people witnessed the two performances yesterday, and at the night performance hundred were turned away unable to gain admission. Among the guests last night by special invitation of Messrs. Cody and Salsbury, were 400 members of the International Typographical Union. By special invitation of the board of directors of the world's fair, Colonel Cody, with the entire company and the famous cowboy band, to-day paraded through the White City, and will do so twice or thrice during the summer. Through the medium of the management of the "Wild West," Governor Russell, of Massachusetts, and Governor Cronse, of Nebraska, were made acquainted with each other yesterday, as they occupied boxes adjoining the grand stand. Messrs. Cody and Salsbury and Major Burke, because of their popularity with all classes of people, are in a position to make acquainted, one with the other, nearly all of the distinguished visitors to Chicago during the present summer, and it goes without saying that no one of note will visit Chicago without having their respects to Buffalo Bill and his show. | 178PRINTERS SEE THE WILD WEST.
