tion In the Academy OF Music.

During the third act of the opera at the
Academy last night there was cry OF
"Fire!'
The house was crowded. People sprang
to their feet and for short time it looked
as if there would be stampede from the
building.
At the time Miss Abbott was singing. a
solo. She continued with her song, dis
PLAYING great nerve.
The excitement, which for few seconds
was intense, was soon over.
A few pieces of paper thrown into the
aisle had been trampled upon until they
fell into the register. where they remained
IN a smoulderiug condition. The fumes
first reached the nostrils of few sensitive
persons. who began to whisper "Fire.p
and then the smoky odor became noticea-
bic all over the house. and the alarm be-
came general. Everybody began to look
about for way TO escape. Some few peo-
pie retained their seats. but most of the
audience sprang 10 their feet and began
preparations for escaping in the event that
there was really danger.
The cause of the excitement soon became
known and the people returned to their
seats and the play continued.
There was not the slightest fire nor
could there have been from this source.
