Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show performed in Prairie du Chien Wisconsin on Monday after a Sunday arrival from Dubuque. A clash between showmen and local deputies led to a riot with the ball knocked down and spectators driven away. The deputy marshal was beaten, windows smashed, and the crowd dispersed as the showmen defended their troupe, then departed for the next stand. Local officials telegraphed for funds and the town recovered as Buffalo Bill's company moved on the following day.
