AMUSEMENTS.
'AMERICAN WILD WEST SHOW. “The mystery, fascination, bewitching spirit of the interminable American prairie, with ite gallant dashing men and women transported to your very doors. Daring and skill on bucking, plunging steeds. Daily happenings of ranch and cow camp. An exhibition in keeping with the progressive spirit of the age, and the name and fame of its world renowned owners.” So reads the advertisement of the Messrs Wirth Bros., circus proprietors, this year. The advertisement also goes on to say that the public will see this year what you have never seen before, an exhibition so unique, that it stands alone in its greatness. Besides Hillary Long, whose wonderful performance on his head is the talk of the land, there is a genuine band of American cowboys and cowgirls whose picturesque attire and remarkable doings with the lasso, bucking horses and buffaloes, acclaim them at once the draw of the show. The menagerie is full of weird animals.. The show will appear in Stratford on Friday, February 14th inst., and the menagerie will be open in tho afternoon from 4 to 5.
