Buffalo Bill

William Cody greets children from St. Joseph's Orphanage at Hagemeister Park, July 19, 1915. Cody's Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show featured cowboy tricks, event reenactments, Native Americans, military veterans, and female entertainers. The Press-Gazette arranged and funded a trip to allow the orphans to see the performance, providing not only the ticket, but chartering an interurban streetcar to carry them to the park for the show.
