lists HAVE YET TO BE
REckoNED WITH.

Managua.-Jose Madriz. judge OF the
Central American Court of Justice at
Carriage, who has been put forward
as candidate for the presidency to cuc-
coed Zelaya, received an enthusiastic
reception on his arrival here Sunday.
Long before he reached the capital
Madriz was the idol of cheering
crowds. He was met by delegations
from various departments and was ac-
claimed all along the way from Co
rinto to Managua.
At this place the crowds awaiting
the appearance Of the candidate were
extraordinary. Troops and police
were out in force for the protection OF
Madriz, who proceeded on foot to a
hotel through an almost inextricable
mass of people. the soldiers and de-
tectives breaking a way through the
solid ranks, pushing and throwing
aside the frantic people.
In front of the park there were hos
tile cries against the attempt of the
soldiers to clear the street, and i'm

whipped out revolvers, brandishing
them in the air. They formed a COM
pact mass around Madriz, acting as his
bodyguard and escorting him to his
quarters.
For a moment the situation was
critical. There were shouts of viva
Leon: to hell with Managua."
No shots were fired, however. and
the procession went on its way. The
face of the presidential candidate was
flushed and wore a look of anxiety.
He was accompanied to the hotel by
the Mexican minister and from the
place the crowds were shut out.
DR.. Madriz arrived about o'clock
Sunday morning at Corinto aboard the
steamer Acapulco from Punta Arenas.
Costa Rica. He was received by COM
missions representing Congress. the
Supreme Court. and the municipalities
OF Leon. Managua. Chinandega and
Masaya.
A salute was fired In his honor. Sol
diers stood at attention and enthusi-
asm marked the greeting Of the
crowds. DR.. Madriz. though seemingly
well pleased at his welcome. made no
speech. Soon after he landed he said
in an interview:
Il shall accept the honor that has
been offered me. am not the candi-
date of Leon, but I am the candidate
OF the entire republic. Chief concern
will be to appease the ancient Sec
tionalism that has divided certain 10
calities.''
DIR. Madriz said he was not certain
how the revolutionists would receive
him. He had sent q delegate to Blue
fields to confer with the revolutionary
leaders there, but his representatives
had not been permitted to land. Cen
eral Estrada sent word that II he had
come to treat for peace it was useless.
Madriz was hopeful. however. that he
would succeed in making peace with
the revolutionists.

That the old-fashioned comic opera
type of entertainment Is as popular as
ever was proved yesterday at the
Grand when 1.-The Toreador" played to
two big and we'll pleased houses, mat
inee and evening. The piece has six
authors the best known among them
probably being Ivan Caryll and Lio-
mel Monckton, who composed the
music. James Nj. Tanner and Harry
Nichols are responsible for the book,
and the lyrics are from the pens OF
Adrian Ross and Percy Greenbank.
Francis Wilson once starred in "The
Toreador" and it has enjoyed many re-
vivals since.
In this weeks production by the
big Hartman compay great credit
is due those responsible for the
lavish staging and costuming given
the piece. Both sets are specially
painted and have that dainty
quality which adds so much to
the general impression of a musical
show. The music at times is not un-
pleasantly reminiscent of Bizet's
"Carmen" score, as though the English
composers had attempted a travesty
without slavishly confining themselves
to that idea. The lyrics are so good
that we wish we could understand
every word. In most musical comedies
of recent manufacture we do not care
what is sung; the tunes the thing. In
''The Toreador," as in the Gilbert-Sul-
livan classics, the verses have value
in and of themselves. More distinct
enunciation by singers would empha-
size it.
For the first time during his present
engagement Ferris Hartman lost him
self in the character he was embody-
ing-that of Sammy Gigg, Sam Wei
ler's twin brother, I believe, and as
comical cockney as ever crossed the
Atlantic. We forget Hartman in adj
miring Gigg, and this is the surest
