This is one Of James Gordon Bennett's
prime stock stories, as he relates it:
When Irving was playing in "Faust"
in this country, he made it very real
istic by employing a large number Of
supernumarie3 who alternately APP
peared as angels and then as imps of
darkness. One OF the grand scenes is
where the imps Of darkness descend.
At q signal from Mephisto the imps be-
gin to scamper AMI get down below
through trap door. Many had gone
down belowwhen big, fat. 50-cent-a-
nightimp started down. He was too
large fer the trap door and got stuck.
In vain he tried to push himself down.

Street Preaching and Street Assemblies.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
An interview in The EVENING STAR Of Satur-
day indicates that some of our English visitors
have been but partially informed as to the
status Of open-air assemblies in this country,
and that even our own people are not all prop
erly informed.
Tie conditions through the country at large
are these: Any unauthorized assemblage is an
obstruction to the ordinary use of streets or
public spaces and the parties so gathering are
liable to the policeman's direction, move on"
and in case Of refusal to move they are liable
TO arrest street parades and assemblages
require permits, and political managers are
more careful than street preachers to arrange
for them.
The municipal authorities of Boston had
great trouble some months ago with preacher
who insisted on freedom to preach on the COM
mon, and when fined refused to pay and went
to jail. notwithstanding he had been told he
could have permit for the asking
The police of a New Jersey city are currently
reported to have arrested whole circus parade
a few days ago out without q permit, which was
settled by paying fine and taking the pre-
scribed permit. Either the circus or the
preacher can be out of order or can take the
prescribed mode Of securing not only permits
sion, but protection, as all such gatherings in
crease the duties of the policemen.
In Europe. as in this country police regula-
lions can be misinterpreted, as in the interest
Of persecution.
The regulations as to size, ventilation and
light OF school houses are matters of govern
mental concern on the continent An enthusi-
astic gentleman from the United States opened
school In Rome, which was closed by the
police. He endeavored to rouse some sympa-
thy as victim of religious persecution, but it
seemed that he was attempting to have q school
in a building which was below the prescribed
sanitary standard.
The cities of the United States are extremely
liberal to all manner of street orators. and a
rule against unauthorized occupation Of public
ways should not be interpreted by anybody,
dom Even the national flag may be go hung
as 10 require police interference, which need
not be charged to unpatriotie sentiment

ERRONEOUS REPORTS,
Guatemala Not Excited by Revolution as
Stated,

Ne-N~@"@s ~SOs AASsteu W Rov0AuuOh 30
Stated.
The newspapers have been full Of conflicting
accounts with regard to an alleged revolution
in Guatemala These reports grew out of the
intense excitement which reigns in political
circles over the coming December elections.
During national holiday few days ago a
tumult took place, which, fortunately, was i'm
mediately put down. Neither the government
nor the president we're concerned in this dis
turbance, the hostile demonstrations being di-
rected toward DIR Lorenzo Montufar, gentle
man who was once minister to the United States.
DR. Montufar has been nominated a candidate
for the presidency by small circle of ambitious
men. who are but little loved by the people at
large on account of their bad record IN the
past In the afternoon Of the day mentioned
Dr. Montufars son Manuel, who shares the
general dislike OF his father provoked the
masses in an impairment speech. The crowd
III their Indignation stoned the house of the
elder Montufar, shouting: Let us lynch this
scoundreL" The police interfered most OPP
portunely to save his life and order was soon
restored.
Guatemalans in this country have been much
incensed at the exaggerated reports which have
found their way into the newspapers of the
United States to the prejudice Of their COM
mercial interests. President Barillas is q man
of marked ability and unquestioned integrity
and much beloved by the masses of the people,
whose best interests he has always had at heart
Great social and commercial progress has been
made during his wise administration. and it is
ridiculous in the extreme to imagine his follow
ing in the steps of the unfortunate Balmaceda

Treasurer Boyer OF Pennsylvania on Trial.
The senate at Harrisburg, Pa, yesterday
changed its plan and took up the case Of State
Treasurer Boyer first. The attorney general
conducted the proceedings against Boyer and
created surprise by admitting that the state
treasurer was not responsible as implied in
the governors message for s2s6, 232. 90 Of per-
sonal property tax, because at the time Of
Eardsley's arrest the payment was not yet due
the state and Boyer could, therefore, have had
no official knowledge that it was in the Phila-
delphia treasurer's possession. The evidence
presented by Mr.. Hensel was principally that
OF the governors and mayors experts, which
has already been published.
