 New Haven people will to-day have the opportunity of seeing here Buffalo . Bills great Wild West show. Fully 300 men and horses will be presented, including war Indians from the Co., manche, Sioux Blackfeet, Cheyenne, Arrapahoe and other famous tribes of red men, the broncho-busting coW- boys, audaeious Roosevelt Rough Rid CTS, Cuban insurgents cavalry and the Baden Powell South Africa Horse will represent their respective types of ire gular horseback fighters. The United
 States cavalry and artillery, German cuirassiers and Irish lancers will show us how trained mounted soldiers per- form their duty in camp and field Be- sides these, the Cossacks, Arabs, Vaqueros and Gouschos form a re- markable contrast, coming as they do AlOIll lLt ollOW GlGbPES Ol INlScId, lLlG sandy deserts of Algeria, the arid plains of Mexico and the South Amer ican pampas. To those who have seen the Wild West it is unnecessary to describe its character while for those who yet have this pleasure before them no description can do justice to the merit, originality and brilliant char acter of an exhibition without a peer or parallel.
 A grand mounted street parade will be given over the principal streets this forenoon.
 One of the unique features of Buffalo Bills Wild West is the display of horsemanship by the Don Cossacks, who belong to the army of the czar. It may look like surprising circus business, but the Cossack mind re- gards it simply as a drill. The wild looking fellows stand up in their stir rups, stand on their saddles, stand on their shoulders, stand on their heads-their horses going madly all the while--and whirl their swords until they look like buzz saws
 On horseback they made good all we have ever read of the mounted Bedouin's skill, but they are even more astonishing in their athletic exercises and gun juggling. Circus tumbIers are tame In comparison with them, and theirs is evidently the school that has produced the surprisingly strong Turk ish wrestlers.
 The great military drills of the for eign bodies of soldiers, the battle scenes, the buckng horses, Indian war o11 A+h o11 1r,,n features will be seen, such as the Bedouin Arabs with Buffalo Bills Wild | West are ex-soldiers of the Turkish ar my.
 Buffalo Bill was warm friend and l great admirer of the late Professor | Marsh of Yale, whom he met out on | the Plains and guided on his hazardous ] journeys in the far west. Then there was formed a mutual friendship and regard between the great scientist and his guide that lasted up to the end of | the formers career. On Buffalo Bills | first visit to New Haven it was to be the guest of the professor, who gave him reception dinner at the Tontine hotel. Cody was then paying his first visit east after the Grand Duke Alexis hunt and the hunting expedition of which he had charge and that was headed by the then young James Cor don Bennett and the flower of the Nim- rods of New York, including Larry Jerome, John Hecksker, August Bel mont and others. At that time even was discussed the feasibility of bring ing to the east some of the features of what was the American frontier Pro- lessor Marsh always encouraged Col onel Cody in his efforts to reproduce excerpts from western history, scenes from its rugged life with men and anil mals to the manner born. On each re- curing visit of his old scout and guide with his Indian allies, many of them old friends of the prfoessor, it was al- ways the savant's holiday.
 Twenty years ago Colonel Cody evolved and launched upon the sea of success his realistic exhibition, world widely known as Buffalo's Wild West, Its grand career on two continents and its recognized ethnoogical merit has now passed into history. It returns now in the, full ripeness of its matur- ity probably in the zenith of it's career
 THE PARADE. h The great parade will start at 9:30 this forenoon and will pass through the business section of Chapel street as part of it's tour.
