Meanwhile the lady who presides at the

play has many amusing situations which

Music has been generously employed
in the construction OF the skit by Mr..
Hoyt, and to its preponderance over

success OF the piece is due. Music
abounds in every nook and corner Of the
piece, now breaking forth in the shape

with a view to speciality elaboration
and does not disappoint in this partic-

BISHOP ARRESTED.
Charged with Treason Against the
Government OF EcEado-.


NEW YORK, May S.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Panama says: Infor-
nation received from a correspondent
in Guayaquil, Ecuador, is to the effect
that Bishop Andrade, of RiObamba,
has been arrested, charged with trea-
son. Since the rebel attack on Rio
Bamba, few days ago, in which sew
eral priests took part, the government
has had cause to suspect Bishop An
drade in the revolutionary movement.
Following the arrest of Bishop Ravad-
necia, of Guaranda, who is charged
with conspiring to assassinate Capt.
Saltos, commander-in-chiefo of the gov
ernment battalion in Guaranda.
An alleged conspiracy to assassinate
Jose Luis Alfaro, brother of President
Alfaro, of Ecuador, and governor Of
the province of Los Rios, has been dis
covered. Five of the principal planta
tion owners and merchants of the prov
ince are now under arrest, charged
with completely in the plot to murder
Gov. Alfaro Among the men is ANA
dor r. Escandon. Information has
reached Guayaquil that Col. Morales
Alfaro'S troops met and defeated a
large band Of rebels near Cruz Agnatea
in the province of Chimborazo. After
short resistance the insurgents fled
before the we'll disciplined government
forces. It is asserted persistently, on
what seems to be good authority, that
the rebel leaders have sent commu-
nication to the government offering
to surrender if protection to life and
property is extended. There have been
no outbreaks outside of the provinces
of Canar and Chimborazo, though steps
have been taken in other provinces
by government supporters to form
volunteer corps to defend themselves
in case of an unrising.

WAR ON RUM.
People of Topeka Up In Arms
Against the Saloon.


TOPEKA. Kas., May s.-The people
of Topeka have declared war upon the
unlawful saloon. A week ago, hand
somely appointed saloon was opened
in the principal street of the city, after
an absence Of fifteen years, and it has
been claimed that liquor was being
sold there openly. This state of affairs
sufficed to provoke a mass meeting
at Hamilton hall, the largest auditor
ium in the city, last night which was
attended by 5000 people. II. A. Vance,
president Of the State Temperance
union, called the meeting to order.
Early in the proceeding a sensation
was caused when ex-senator William
F. PETER and A. L. Williams, general
attorney for the Union Pacific, made
speeches in which they advised that
the people take the law into their own
hands and destroy the open saloons
by force If necessary. When the as
semblage had been worked up to a
state Of more or less excitement, a
notorious negro joint keeper endeavor-
ed to reply to one of the speakers. The
secretary of the meeting took the negro
by the coat collar and thrust him from
the stage, when other men grabbed
him and threw him out Of the hall.
The meeting after listening to several
fiery speeches, adopted resolutions call
ing upon Gov. Leedy to remove the
Topeka police commissioners and de-
manding that the city and county Of
ficers prosecute violators of the law
The chairman was also authorized to
appoint a committee of fifteen, to see
that these demands be complied with
