The Death of Custer,

This season Cody will present here on
Tuesday, June 2lSt, the crownng historic,
heroic aud warlike achievement in his
famous managerial career, by introducing in
his "Wid West performances stupendous
representation of Gen, Clusters last battle on
the Little Big Horn. Nothing in the way Of
living and martial spectacle has ever been
devised or attempted which could, in any re
,pect, approximate to this production. 1t
dwarfs any imperial exploitation ever given
in Rome's Coliseum, and no four walls ever
erected bound sufficient space for its tremend-
Gus action Again, the living characters and
material indispensable to its presentation are
virtually monopoli1cd by Col Cody, and in
cude elements the prototypes Of which p ss-
ng time has already almost entirely de-
stroyed. The spectacle and tableau require
the cooperation of some eight hundred men
aud horses, including tribes Of SionX war
rors, scouts, plainsmeu and regular troopers
The opening scene reveals an Indian village
the inhabitants of which are discovered by
a scout while iuduIging in wild orgies over Il
recent victory.
