THE WILD WEST SHOW


 Dr. Carver,s Great Exhibition .sTO- Hay at the Park-The Indians, Bufaloes, Etc.-This Mornings Procession.
 The Wild West show will be in this city to-day and Thursday and will exhibit each l afternoon at Hamilton Park. The entertain ment, which is novel and exciting one, consists of sham fights with Indians, glass
 ball shooting by Dr. Carver, the greatest ! rifle shot in the world, the lassoing of wild horses, cattle and buffaloes and many other | exciting features.
 l A great stir was created on Chapel street | last evening at about half-past nine o'clock 1 when the Indians, buffaloes, horses and equipage of the show passed up Chapel street | bound for the park. The show has been on | the road ten weeks. Great crowds have | gathered to see it in all places where it has appeared Its opening performance was in \ St. Louis before 87,000 people. Dr. Carver \ was about town last evening accom- panied by Captain Jack Crawford, the poet ! scout. He is looking in magnificent health. He has at great expense secured the aggregation of talent he presents. The Cincinnati Times | gives a graphic description of the exciting l attack on the stage coach witnessed in that | city, the counterpart of which will be wit l messed to-day and tells of the excitement and interest occasioned during the immense audience present by Dr. Carvers wonderful | skill in glass ball shooting. The skill of the Mexicans in lassoing buffaloes and steers and the illustration of the tragic death of scout who had been captured by the Indians are among to-day's attractions. See the advertisement in another column for details. The grand street parade this morning leaves Hamilton Park at 10 o'clock There will be several hundred persons in the procession, including Indians, cowboys, etc., and the line of march will be as follows: Whalley avenue to York street, to Chapel, to Church, to George, to State, to Chapel, to Olive to Grand, to State, to Chapel, to Church. to Elm, to Whalley avenue, to Hamilton Park.
