CAUGHT AT FIESTA.
MEXICAN REBELS KILLED. MEXICO CITY. Dispatches from Puebla said a citizens' vigilance committee, formed after an attack on a Tepeixco school teacher, surprised the remainder of a band of rebels and killed several of them. Among those slain was the alleged leader, Manuel Becerra. The report said the vigilantes found the rebels gathered at a ranch, celebrating. Four were arrested. Two weeks ago Senorita Maria Hernandez, the teacher, fought off the rebels from atop her home, killing two and wounding four.
