Buffalo Bill's Wild West Exceeds Expectations In City

A Journal reporter notes crowds far surpassing Buffalo Bill Cody's forecast with about eight thousand in the afternoon and nearly four thousand at night. The show travels to Oskaloosa and Des Moines, employing 620 on payroll, including 500 touring. Performances featured cavalry drills, Indian dances, frontier acts, and Annie Oakley shooting. Col. Cody fell ill but show continued amid police vigilance and two intoxicated youths being jailed.
