ROUGH RIDERS.
ssBu6alo Bill, Has FiIipinOs and other
Strang Folks.

Colonel Cody ("Buffalo BilI'), who will be
here with his Wild West show on May 5,
has added some new features to his we'll
known exhibition. For the first time there
will appear a contingent of the residents of
the Philippine islands, who are experts on
horseback, also some of the queer charac-
tiers from the recently annexed Hawaiian
islands, who not only perform feats in
equestrianism but also introduce through
the female representatives the unique and
astonishing religious dances as they are per-
formed in their country when the occasion
requires. Cubans who hav served in the
last war and who come here with visible
marks they have received in the different
encounters. Porto Ricans who illustrate
their native style of riding, Indians, cow
boys, German and English cavalrymen,
Cossacks, Arabs, Gauchos, Mexicans and
others.
A military masterpiece, entitled the
charge on San Juan Hill" will be shown
for the first time. This is made as nearly
realistic as it is possible in the limited area.
The management have gone so far as to en-
gage a detachment of Roosevelts Rough
Riders who were participants in this heroic
event.

from an Indiana man who recently entered
