Girls" A NEW OPERA.
Mascagni Talks of the Time and Place
of Production.

New York, Sept. lin an interview with
Mascagni the italian composer, publish
ed here, he tells about his new opera,
Iris" which is soon to be produced. The
composer says:
1.-The time and place at which my new
opera, Iris, will be put upon the stage
for the first time is now definitely settled.
My arrangement with my publisher Sig.
Fefcordi of Milan, was that should have
finished the opera in April last and that it
should be brought out in Milan. ms cad
of that l have succeeded in having Rome
selected for the premier of the new opera
this out of certain grateful feeling to-
ward the Eternal City. Iris will be first
produced there on the evening of Thurs
day. November 8, at the Costanzi theater.
First OF all, may tell you that my
plot and music are tmpregnated with Jap
anese color. Iris, the heroine or. rather,
the, Protagonista, is a Japanese maiden.
had long been thinking of striking out
something new in the domain of music.
There is something in Oriental music
IN general, and in japanese music in par
Iicular; which has always appealed to me.
It's melody is often superb. But it has
note OF savagery, of primitiveness, WHICH
predomlna ties. Our italian music, on the
other hand, has been cultivated up to a
point or almost exaggerated mechanical
perfection. My idea has been to carry
the two styles of music, to weld together
the beauties of the two classes, to take
away the uncouth harshness of the Asia tic
strains, and to infuse into our italian
notes something that will be departure
from that polish which clogs when it be-
gins to be observed"

GOAL FROM FIELD COUNTS 8
Football Rules Have Not Been
HumaneIy Amended.

New York, Sept. 1.-The football rules
for 1899, as revised and changed by the
rules committee of the University Ath-
letic club, have been issued in book
form by the American Sports Publish
ing company.
Walter Camp, chairman OF the COM
mittee, explains in the introduction to
the rules just why certain changes were
made and why others were not. No
change was made unless the committee
voted unanimously for it.
The rules stand almost as they did
last year except in the matter of scOr-
ing. Under the old rules and under the
new points can only be made as fol-
lows:
Goal from touchdown. 1; goal from
field, 5; touchdown, 5; safety, 2.
Many important features of the rules
have been emphasized by footnotes, and
as these notes are by the committee
they are as binding as the rules. Wal
ter Camp says:
The play this year should not differ
materially from that of 1897 in its gen.
eral characteristics 1t is possible that
there may be a still further advance
along the line of concentrated plays
where as many as five men succeed in
getting into the Interference. There
will be the same progress as for the last
five years in the better direction Of

especially valuable 1t is doubtful if

probable advance, but development of

BOLD ROBBERS IN OMAHA.
They Hold Up Street Car Passengers
Near the Exposition.

Omaha, Neb. Sept. 1.-Two daring
highwaymen of long and short proper
tons have succeeded in creating a reign
Of terror in Omaha in the past week by
the holiness of their operations. They
hold up street cars, citizens, messenger
boys, and in one instance are believed
to have held up and robbed a policeman
while he was walking around on a down
town street. Crooked work has been
going on since the exposition opened in
the city but it was only last week that
the criminals manifested a dangerous
disposition. They started in by holding
up a number of people in broad day
light near the center of the city. Sat
urday night they started in on the
street cars and have succeeded very
well along this line.
Cars were held up within 100 yards of
the exposition early in the evening.
Each time the robbers seemed to be the
same. One conductor failed to put up
his hands fast enough and one of the
men took a shot at him. The police
have made numerous arrests, but fail
to catch the right men.
The bandits showed their deliberate
nerve by one of them jumping from a
motor car as a bicyclist was passing,
and while his companion kept the crew
and passengers under his gun, the other
stopped the bicyclist to prevent him
giving the alarm until they were through
with their work.

eeSCRAPPY JEN'S0 BOXING.
Bested Five Policemen in One Round
in New York Court.

New York, Sept. 1.-"Scrappy Jen, %
the flower of Chinatowns Amazonians,
held a little boxing bee in the Center
street court yesterday. Had articles
of agreement been drawn up they prob
ably would have read, "open to all com
ers, policemen preferred Lacking
these, however, preferences ruled, and
five stalwart bluecoats were groggy be-
fore the mill was called off
When the court clerk called Jennie
Allen to the bar" broad shouldered
strapping woman, with an arm like
saw log, and a suspiciously meek de-
meanor stood up before Magistrate
Flammer, and listened quietly while he
imposed a fine of $40 for disorderly con-
duct in front of her home. When the
sentence was pronounced she remarked
tersely, mo dough to cough up" and
submissively followed Patrolman Zorr
toward the Tombs.
Half way up the aisle a change came.
The lamb became honess. Turning
suddenly she caught the policeman an
uppercut on the jaw that stretched him
at full length. Four other policemen
rushed to the PROSTATE ZOrr's assist
ance. The first got a straight right
handler on the eye, and the second jab
in the solar plexus, and then there were
only two. They closed in and caught
a few half arm jolts that had them GO
ing fast when reserve force consisting
of every policeman in the room formed
a flying wedge, and piled in a confused
heap on top of the prisoner.
When she finally was pulled from I'M
der the mass, somewhat disheveIled,
but fresh as ever, there was a smile of
ineffable content on "Scrappy Jen's"
face.
Judge" she said. as the magistrate
imposed an additional fine of SO, "I
never lost a scrap but once and then
some one pulled a knife. If it want for
the benches would have done them

Four wary policemen then escorted
the woman to the Tombs.

JERSEY KNOWS JUSTICE
Man Fined SIS For Disturbing Sleep
ing Policeman.

Orange, N. J., Sept. caleb C. Jones
of West Orange was before Justice
Condit. today, on the charge of Inter
fering'' with Patrolman George Busold
of West Orange. Busold was acting
sergeant on July 81 last and fell asleep
while sitting in front of the station
house early in the morning.
Jones passed, and, seeing the sleep
ing policeman, it struck him as being
a good joke to take Busold's watch and
badge from him. Jones gave the prop
erty to Patro1man Brothers to be re-
turned.
The police committee of the township
committee had Jones arrested, the tech
meal charge being interfering" with
Busold The case was tried today, wit
nesses telling the story substantially as
above. Jones declined to make any
statement.
Justice Condit in passing judgment,
said: Il want the people of this town
ship to know-and I do not wish to be
misquoted by the newspaper men pres
emit that am bound by the oath that
have taken to treat this matter in
serious, honest and sober light. I no
tice that some of the journals have
treated the matter as a comedy, but
must emphasize the fact that this court
will treat this matter not as a joke but
as serious case.
''It matters not to me whether George
Busold as a police officer of this town
ship, was neglecting his duty or not: He
was properly punished by his SuperiOrs,
the township committee, for not doing
his duty This is no business of mine.
Caleb G. Jones has been charged with
interfering with George Busold and
taking his watch and badge; he has
been given a chance to prove himself
innocent, but he has not done SO.
TT costs the taxpayers of West Or
ange nearly $4,000 a year to maintain
their police force, and, in view of this
fact, is it right that the members of the
force must always be targets for our
fun-loving citizens? I cannot see the
matter in this light.
"a section of the ordinance concern
ing vice, immortality etc, plainly states
that any person is liable to a fine for
obstructing or interfering with any per-
son or persons being in or upon any
street or place. andJones is charged
with interfering, which means entering
into or taking part in the concerns Of
others This court, therefore, imposes
a fine of SIS and costs on the accused,
Caleb G. jones'
The fine and costs amount to $50.
Notwithstanding the ideas Of the justice
on the case, the majority Of Weston
ange citizens think it ridiculous for
policeman TO be robbed" while on du-
tV.

LOVERS USE KNIVES.
Young Farmers Engage in a Tragic
Duel Over Girl.

Nishawaka, Ind, Sept. IA Jealous en-
nifty existing between Bert Davis and
jeremiah Powers, prominent young farm
ers, eliminated near Lake of the Woods
Wednesday. Both men hail from Walker
usa and are suitors for the hand of Miss
Mabel Patton.
Davis engaged the young woman for a
drive. While securing the buggy Powers
appeared and took her away in his own
rig. Davis returned, and learning that
he had been outwitted, gave chase, over
taking the couple.
Both sprang from their buggies and
terrible fight ensued, each drawing a
knife. Davis sank exhausted from wounds
in the roadway. His condition is precari-
Gus. Powers wounds are not necessarily
