The Millers' show dicers somewhat
from ths stereotyped Wild west exhibit
tion. The idea IS to show life on a
big ranch--the biggest in the COW
country. One of the scenes Will be
the lynching of horse thief, little
every day transaction of the West OF
some years ago. The COW punchers
will show what broncho busting really
is and what it is to round up" the
cattle on q ranch. of course there Will
be exhibitions OF riding. shooting, lariat
throwing, besides all the feature acts
usually seen in a wild west show.
Most realistic win be the attack and
capture of an immigrant train by In

Buffalo Bill Show.
Buffalo Bills Wild West and Con-
gress OF Rough Riders Of the World
has returned from it's four years' tour
of Great Britain and Continental Eu-
rope. During this tour the great show
was seen in eighteen different coun-
tries. Its homecoming tour began at
the Madison Square Garden. New York.
where it attracted many thousands.
The show will be seen in Richmond on
the 18th of this month.
Buffalo Bill is said TO have come
home with practically a new exhibit
tion. Colonel Cody. as plainsnan. hunt
er. scout and guide. lived the early
days OF his life on the Western prai-
panton. then as his enemy, and finally
as his friend. Colonel Cody himself
occupies a unique position In the an
mails Of Western history. and his show
is unique in the history of amusement
enterprises of the world.
One OF the features OF the exhibition.
is the battle of Summit Springs, in
which Will be illustrated one Of the
most thrilling chapters Of Indian war
fare. The newest sensational feature
Of the show, however. is the great
train ilold-up. in which is depicted IN
a realistic manner one of those lawless
events which ITdaE carly EalIEDdG
