MATCHES SET FIRE TO
A GALLERY BOYS COAT
Flames Are Put Out After Almost Gre
ating Stampede at Metropolitan.

There came near being a stampede in
the gallery at the Metropolitan opera
house Sunday night during the per
formance of 'The Daughter of Ham
Hear" when, during an internission
between acts it was discovered that the
coat of small boy was on fire.
In some unknown manner matches
in the pockets of the youngster had
become ignited, and before the boy
or anyone near him knew what had
transpired the coat was in a blaze and
1t. was with some difficulty that the
names were extinguished before any,
one was seriously injured.
The incident caused considerable ex-
element among the occupants of the
gallery, but the fire was extinguished
in time to avert a stampede. An
other bay had his hands badly burned
in extinguishing the flames.

with alcohol. The smelling expert
judges the quality Of pomatums. An
other and even more remarkable part
of the business is to examine a popu-
lar imported perfume, determine from
the smell of what it is made and enable
his employer to procure it here.
Like the experts in the distilleries,
who will take any given wine or spir-
it's, and after examination produce
counterfeit which only a connoisseur
could detect as such, the smelling eX-
pert by means of his unerring nose
makes possible the production here of
any perfume that it is desired to imi-
tate.
Possessed of so valuable a nose, he
takes the utmost care of it. He does
his best to avoid taking cold, and
guards himself with special care when
the influenza comes round. A single
bad cold may disable his nose for weeks
and throw him out of employment. He
avoids, also, as far as possible, all
strong odors, good or bad, to preserve
the delicaey of his olfactories.
The profession on the whole is less
injurious to health than that of the
tea faster or the wine taster.-New

WILL CHARGE A DOLLAR
TO FISH IN LAKE COMO
Park Board Proposes to.Get Even With
Mercenary Anglers.

With the river and lakes enjoying
an icy covering fully twenty inches in
thickness to talk fishing is a little out
of season, but the disciple of Walton
who happens to be a guest of the park
board at Como next summer will have
to pay for his sport
Last year when the lake for the
first time in many years was thrown
open to the public it was found that
many were fishing simply for the gain
that they realized from the sale of the
fish caught. Not a few made a hand
some thing out of it until the traffic
was stopped.
From now on, however, anyone de-
string to fish in Lake Como will have
to pay 81. This includes a boat with
the usual charge for the time it is in
use. The park board has so decided.

YANeER REsTs CALLAHAN.
But He Has Only Small Margin the Bet
ter OF the Eiohtinu

CHICAGO. Jan. Benny Yanger. of
Chicago, won a decision over Tim Gala
han, of Philadelphia, in a six-round con
test here tonight. Although he received
the verdict, Yanger had but a small mar
gin the better of the fighting. The first
round was Callahan's. He used
straight left jab that Yanger was unable
to eyade, and when the Chicago man
took his corner his right eye was closed.
Yanger forced the fighting in the next
round and landed several hard swings to
Callhan's stomach, but the latter evened
up matter by the excellent use of his left
hand. The third and fourth rounds were
full of action, both men receiving con-
and sixth rounds Yanger reached Gala
hans stomach repeatedly with blows that
Were full of force. Towards the end of
the last round Callahan fell into cIinch
at every opportunity to avoid punish
ment.

Taxpayers Viii Have to Pay About go
Mills Next Year.

The tax levy for 1904 was officially
fixed by the two council bodies last
night and will be transmitted to the
county auditor today to be spread on
his books.
The total levy amounts to $2,o46, 435,
or about p mills on the dollar Of as
sessed valuation and is coIlectabIe in
1904. Based on the valuation of 1902,
taxpayers next year will have to pay
about 80 mills, but this may be reduced

a levy of less than 80 mills.
Tonight the two council bodies will
meet and authorize the comptroller to
issue large amount of certificates of
Indebtedness, for which he has been
receiving subscriptions.

though there is division Of opinion
among the members, it is possible that

The reason urged in favor of the in
novation is that the club is compoS-

days occupied and who are often I'M
able to pass the evenings at the club,
and that, therefore, it would be ad-
vantageous to have, the billiard room
