MANY ENTHUSE
AT MELODRAMA
Big Audience Greet Players
at Opening Of the Opera
House Season
YOUNG BUFFALO SCORES HIT

Young Buffalo scored a strenuous
success last night and incidentally
opened the fall-winter season at the
Grand Opera House. A gallery and
auditorium we'll filed with an audience
that was appreciative. excitement ga
lore, real Indians and COW punchers,
were the features Of the evening. The
gallery held a representation Of boys
ranging in years all the way up the
scale who enthused to a considerable
degree at the right moments Young
Buffalo was the Sheriff of Angel
Gulch," and he was a wonder.
There wasn't anything yet made that
Young Buffalo was afraid of. cepting
the heroine with whom he was in love
and who was in love with him. She
loved him like everything and he loved
her in true western fashion; and when
they met, as they did many times
throughout the evening, because the
stage wasn't big enough for her TO
dodge him successfully he just Rugged
her as II he was a big bear and she
didn't mind it in the least The hero
was just as brave as could be and for
that he won the admiration Of the gall
lery fellows. He was dressed in bar
must have itched terribly If IL was
anything like it appeared from six
seats back, and had hitched to him a
brace of "barkers" that could bark
some.
There was a william and paper; and
incidentally the villain was the sup
posed father of the heroine. till It was
found out that he was an imposter,

sly game" on innocent victims. But
he couldn't fool Young Buffalo, the
missing other half of the paper was
discovered, the right father OF the
"beautifur' girl was found, the denoue-
ment was made. the gold mine came
into the hands Of the righA persons and
made 'em all rich, and everything end
ed as happy as a prospective wedding
and home in the gulch in a quiet
place could make it.
Colonel Redmond and Godfrey Law
son incurred the hatred Of Young Buff
falo almost from the very start. 1t was
caution to see the way Young Buff
falo talked to these two and told them
what he thought of them. In the third
act, ford on the ella river. there was
real battle. The beautiful crystal
waters OF the river-except that they
wasn't crystal but just plain board with
few strips of canvas stretched
across where blush light worked from
the inside did the twinkle twinkle
little-star act to make ne waves
were placid in the moonlight and
everything was as quiet as a Sabbath
afternoon in New Jersey, when sud-
denly there was a noise and by ant
by some more. The heroine was being
carried away by the terrible youna
Lawson to be married to him against
I her will.

scheme and astride OF his white charg
