gents, commanded by half breed named
Santollano, have invaded Aanisdro, in the

the largest of the Philippine islands, and
have imprisoned the governor, his secreta-
ry and other officials and have committed
many outrages. An official dispatch from
General Blanco, governor general of the
Philippine islands, announces the disooy-
cry Of fresh conspiracy against the Span
ish government He adds that the new
plot unearthed Is widespread in its ramifi-
cations Numerous arrests have already
been made, and the authorities are arrest
ing many more people. The first re-en-
forcements have arrived at the Philippine
islands from the Mindana islands, and the
cabinet decided to send two battalions Of
marines there Serious rioting occurred
at Barcelona during the elections for mem
bers Of the councils general. The electoral
college ballot box was smashed, and knives
and revolvers were freely used. Several
persons were wounded during the disturb
ance. The elections have resulted in the

CT scenic fairy spectacle, and an abund-
ance Of bright specialties. These are
thrown together in a purposely helter-
SHELTER style. and the result is solid
three hours of merriment.

of the author, has the chief part of a
mischieyous boy, with an ambition to
look like Corbett He is a clever dan
Ger and singer, and is sure to be fa-
vorite with every audience. The re-
mainder Of the cast is made up of ex
ceptionally, clever speciality artists.

TO BE HELD IN GRAND RAPIDS.
IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO BE
CONSIDERED.
The Letter-carriers National Con-
vention opens in Grand Rapids, Michi-
gan, Thursday, and already the dele
gates are on the field working hard.
Nashville, St. Louis and San Fran
cisco are candidates for the next con-
vention, and each town is conducting
q lively campaign. There are several
candidates for the presidency. and the
election contest viii be spirited. Presi-
dent Quinn wants a second term. and
w. NJ Hohan, Of Chicago, Goodwin. OF
Providence, and John Parsons. of New
York, are also candidates.
Some of the important questions Ia
be considered are whether to push a
bill to increase first-class city carriers
salaries from $1,000 to $1,000 and sec
ond-class from $500 to $1,000. or ask for
a uniform salary of $1,000. The letter
carriers want the tenure of office un-
der civil service extended to all the
small towns as well as cities. Reduc-
ing the basis of representation from
one delegate for twenty carriers to one
for fifty will be considered, each office
to have at least one delegate, and the
question of holding conventions every
two years instead of annually will be
brought up. The establishment Of a
pension fund for the benefit of carriers
who have served twenty-five years. bv
Withholding per cent. of the salaries
paid, will be discussed, and, if favored
such bill will be pushed in the next
