DEsPERADoEs IN MANILA.
They Had Intended to Cooperate with
Aguinaldo.

Manila, Feb. IS p. m.-There are
many indications that Manila is full of
desperadoes who had intended to CO.
operate with Aguinaldo. The police
are continually capturing men and wonl
en- with weapons concealed IN their
clothing. The vigilance of the authori-
ties in this respect is highly reassuring.
Last Saturday about midnight two
Englishmen accidentally encountered Il
gang of armed natives in a dark side
street.
The natives, fearing discovery, impris-
oned them until morning and threatened
to kill them unless they maintained ST.
lence.
Many native clerks, employed by mer-
camille houses, are missing. AS it is inn
possible that they should have passed
the lines, the inference is that they are
in hiding in the city.
Several attempts were made to assassi-
nate Americans on the street. but that
danger is now a minimum. The natives
are terribly cowed and the precautions
taken. especially against incendiarisn,
are admirable.
The rebels. who have been sweDt in
every direction, like pheasants in a bat
tue die by the hundreds in the trenches
for the most part passively, except the
Ygorotes, who charge desperately and
uselessly.
The rebel prisoners declare that the
outpOsts fired and then everybody fol-
lowed in accordance with IA sort of gen
eral understanding.
KILLED IN THE JUNGLE
Manila, Feb. $50 a. m.--Lieutenant
Afford "a. L. FordD, Company |, Twen-
tieth Kansas infantry. and a private
of that company. were killed and six
other members of the regiment We're
wounded near Caloocan last evening
while accommodating. The party was in
Jungle when it was attacked by the
enemy.
Two companies of the Kansas regi-
ment We're sent to the relief of their
comrades and drove the Filipinos into
Caloocan. penetrating to the very heart
of the town. Meanwhile the gunboats
shelled the suburbs.
General Otis finally recalled the troops,
but the natives. misunderstanding the
retreat, failed to take advantage of it.
The outskirts of the town were burned.

VAUDEVILLE IN DIsFAvoR.
Great Bend, After One Experience,
Decides to Draw the Line.

From recent reports 1t does not look
as though that lively hamlet known as
Great Bend will be liable to pose before
the world as the home of burlesque. a
few night ago a troupe from Bingham
ton visited the town and prepared to
show the rising and the risen genera
tion something genuine in the way Of
high class vaudeville. The patronage
was generous enough, but the greater
portion Of the audience seemed desirous
of taking part in the performance. Be
fore the show was half over some one
tore down the sheet at one corner Of
the hall which divided the dressing
room from the auditorium. Following
this the lights went out and free fight
took place in which neary everybody
was forced to join.
There Were many broken noses and
bruised craniums when the smoke Of
battle cleared away and the Amigos"
Jared almost as badly as the warlike
patriots. The burlesque company left
the town in sections, carrying the
remnants of their wardrobe In bundles,
never to return. The town authorities
of Great Bend are willing to encourage
almost anything in the amusement way
from church festival to a wild west
show, but in future they will draw the
line at burlesque. Anything in the
popular melody and living picture class
that hereafter is allowed to sell tickets
in Great Bend will be obliged to travel
incognito

AND STILL MORE DELAY.
Instead of Signing the Company
Only Agrees to Sign.

Another hitch has occurred in the
South Side sewer preliminaries, but 1t
is one that. it is thought, will be easily
straightened out. For the past week
the citizens committee which is deal
ing with Contractor Koons has been
waiting for the Lackawanna Iron and
Steel company to sign the waiver of the
lien irregularity.
Yesterday the company was heard
from but what they agree to do is not
satisfactory to Assistant City Solicitor
Davis, who has the city's end of the
affair in hand, and the contract conse-
quently is not yet executed.
Instead of signing the waiver as was
expected of it, the company, through
General Manager Wehrum, drafts and
signs an agreement promising to sign
the waver when all other property
holders have signed or the committee
Of citizens makes provisions for the
assessments of those who refuse to
sign. These conditions have already
been complied with, so it is very likely
the company will sign the waiver with
out delay.
Mr.. Davis called up Jessup & Jessup,
the company's attorneys, yesterday af-
ternoon and laid before them the con-
dition in which the matter now stands.
Judge Jessup said he would transmit
the communication to Mr.. Wehrum.
Contractor Rooms is bringing up his
paraphernala from Kingston and hir-
ing men so that he will be ready to be-
gin the construction work as soon as
he gets the word.

FACTS ABOUT THE CENSUS
Supervisor John E. Ed.
ward About the Enum-
orators.

Attorney John r. Edwards, who has
been appointed supervisor of the CEN
sus for Lackawanna, Monroe and Pike
counties is already overrun with APP
plications for positions by persons who
are anxious to do the actual work of
enumerating which will begin June /
of next year.
The enumerating is to be done in
month and the enumerator is to be al
lowed a compensation of not less than
$3 or more than Sc per day of ten
hours. 1t will require about $50 enum-
orators to take the census.
Mr.. Edwards has obtained from the
census department a circular which
contains q great mass of information
about the employing Of enumerators
and other matters in connection with
the census. Some of the things it
contains are:
The supervisor must consult with
the director of the census in regard
TO the subdivision of his district for
the purposes of enumeration. He has
the power of appointment Of the enum-
orators for the various subdivisions
within his district, subject to the ap-
proVal of the director.
He must thoroughly examine all re-
turns and must use great diligence
in correcting all mistakes. He must
send in to the director the accounts
| showing the amount of compensation
due each enumerator.
He is to assist the director in SUBJ
| dividing his district The law pro-
| vides that no enumerator have any
| district assigned to him with over 1000
| inhabitants. 1t also provides that
! enumeration commence on June /, 1900,
| and the returns of each enumerator
| must be in the hands of the supervisor
| by July l Of the same year. In cities
! of over 5000 inhabitants the returns
| must be in within two weeks from
| June !.
The appointments for the office of
! enumerators must be nonpartisan. The
| appointees must be active, energetic
| persons of good address. 1t is advised
| that physicians living in the country
would make good enumerators. Post
masters In small offices are to be given
a certain preference.
No person directly or indirectly con-
| cerned in the assessment of property
| shall be appointed. Persons under
p years of age may be appointed if
| desirable.
Women may also be appointed il
deemed advisable. The rates of COM
pensation to be paid enumerators will
be announced later.
The schedule of inquiries covers four
points: Population mortality, agri-
culture and manufactures.
The supervisor is to receive $125 and
in addition thereto 81 for each thous-
and or majority fraction there of enum-
Grated. He Is also allowed actual
and necessary travelling expenses and
an allowance for subsistence not eX-
ceeding SO a day when absent from
his usual place of residence. He is
also allowed clerk hire when deemed
advisable by the director.
