GUATEMALA, Jan. 29.-President Barrios has

countries TO Guatemala in such event, thus
showing that the question directly all Central
America standing united to repeal any invas-

The Costa Rica legation is to arrive soon, and

The Funke will formally open the
season of 1886 September 4, when
Roland Reed will present "The Politi-
cian," by the late David D. Lloyd,
who was the author of THE Senator" in
which William H. Crane scored such
signal success. THE Politician" was
revised and frightened by Sydney
Rosenfeld, and it is regarded as the
most attractive play in which Mr.. Reed
has appeared in recent years. Mr.. Reed
will be supported as usual by Miss
Isadore Rush. Along with Miss
Rueh and Mr.. Reeds brother. Julian
Reed, the company will include Miss Rose
Brahm, dau ghter of Dave Brahm, the
composer. Roland Reed and Miss Rush
have many friends and admirers in Lin

interest.

After Roland Reed will come Pauline

attic comedy "Dorcas." Pauline Hall and

recently returned from Europe. They
purchased abroad the American rights
for light opera which wss one of last

London. This new play will probably
be presented in Lincoln.
1t will be remembered that "Thrilby,"
the Trilby" burlesque produced at
Richard Mansfeld's Garrick theatre in
