It has not been so very long since Buff
falo Bill and his Wild West aggregation
were in this city. At that time, it will
be remembered, q spectacular production
OF the battle of San Juan was given. Ii

one Of the most elaborate affairs that has
been seen in the open air. This year
Messrs Cody and Salisbury announce that
they have succeeded in placing a success
sor TO that famous Santiago scene. which
is acknowledged 10 be one Of the most
elaborate war dioramas that any amuse-
ment purVcyors have ever attempted.
IL is called the Battle of Tientsin, or
the capture OF Pekin In this production
the allied Powers OF the United States,
England, Germany, France, and Russia,
are seen to assemble in grand review pre-
vious to the battle. The allied armies
advanced to the conflict at Tientsin in
the same friendly spirit of rivalry begOt-
ten by the mimic warfare OF this charac-
ter first inaugurated by Col. w r. Cody
buffalo Bid. under whose direction the
entire entertainment Is supervised.
Having in this remarkable manner an
ticipated history On connection with the

bitten, and that powerful. realistic and
stirring representation of the battle of
Tientsin be presented 10 the public in
order to round out this great historical
record of the last century's remarkable
achievements. II Is more than appropri-
ate that this should be the grateful task
OF this organization, since il Is the only
one which includes in itself the personnel
of the various armies OF the allied forces
and is thus enabled TO present accurately
the uniformed and equipped soldiery, vet
