'THE SCOUTs or THE PRAIRIE."-The rate
at which Buffalo Bill and Texas Jack disposed
of the red skins at Wallis Opera House last
night, would be very satisfactory if practiced
in earnest at the lava beds, but from some mis-
take in the arrangements out there it is the
ModCcs who do the shooting and our men who
do the dying. Ii the Indians got up a drama
for an Indian audience they would probably
present the war OF determination" in a light
in rafara -,
Anyhow the audience at Wallis Opera House
last night seemed TO greatly admire the dexter
Gus way IN which Buffalo Bill and TeNas Jack
haneIed their pistols and threw their laSsoes,
showing facility with both weapons which
would make il lively for a real opponent. The
ease, too, with which the athletic Buffalo Bill
picks up hundred and fifty pound dead In,iiau
by the belt and carries him or as If he was a
kitten. shows there is no make believe about the
hero's muscle. There was a large audience
present last evening, and the frequent and
hearty applause testified that all were well
pleased.
