New , York. Jan. 2. Some Im cortant, changes In the rules govern Ing football were decided upon to-day at a meeting of the new Joint rules committee. These changes will come before, the Joint rules committee for final disposition probably in March. Among ihe changes is the lens-then ing -of the halves from 30 to 85 min utes ."each. The new rules In refer ence to , the passed ball, provide in stead of a penalty of the loss of ball on an unsuccessful pass, a 15 yard penalty on the first and second downs. when a foul is committed It counts as -a down. The proposed eubspitu non ior me present forward pass rule is as follows: "If a forward pas before reaching the ground, or a kicked ball either before or after reaching the ground, goes out of bounds the ball shall be long to the opponents at the point where is crosses the side Una." Another 'important, change-1 the creation of a new official, the field umpire. The new game, it was stated to-day, ften made It difficult for the referee and umpire to settle contested plays. so the new official was created, to be on the neld In the defending tern tory and close to the scene of the play. Rule 19 of last year was changed so that on a kick out after a touch back or a safety, opponents may not come within 10 yards of the side having a free kick. In the present on-stde rule a pro vision was inserted that -a line player is permitted to carry t: c ball, pro vided he does not leave hln position In the line until the ball is put Into play. It was also decided that a player may at all times pass the ball to another of his own side who is behind him. A new section to rule. Ave states that a .player shall be considered as having opportunity to make a fair catch If he is. In such position that it would be possible for him to reach the ball before It touches the ground To the same rule was added: "In case a signal for a fair catch Is made by any player who has an opportunity for a fair catch and an other player of his side who has not signalled for a fair catch, catches the ball, no run shall be made, and a fair catch shall not be allowed, but the ball shall be given to the catcher's aide for a down at the point where the catch was made.

H.,;? Allen against' the Durham Traction ,Com pany,. and- whose- name haa been prominently mentioned In; connection with th congressional race, was -een by your- correspondent and asked abdut the matter.. He did no care to. .talk ivery much,- but; whert; uoia that many prominent citizen,", were mentioning his name n this connec tion and he was asked for an an swer to the questlonr.he admitted- his. candidacy, or rather- the fact: that he ha. Sor some ; time thought about entering the, race. . V, tk Speaking of the candidacy of Mr. Kltchln for Governor, he said that he did not know of his candidacy Until he arrived here this week. He had heard , the matter ; mentioned, but there was nothing certain' Until he met Mr. Kltchln this week and j was told that he was in the race. He said further -that It 1 -true that a large number of representative citi zens in various counties in the fifth district have requested him to be a candidate for Congress. In this con nection it might be added that. many prominent people In thl county would be delighted to- see him in the race and will read of his decision with pleasure. Mr. Brooks has Just begun his third term as solicitor . for this dis trict. He said that he aDDreclated this expression of confidence on the part of the people and added that if the people think that he is the proper man to De the successor of Mr. Kltchln in Congress, then he will enter the race. "I shall leave the matter to the Democratic voters of the district to decide.'" he said. Mr. Brooks Is a great believer In the prin ciple that the great messes of the people are thoroughly competent to select their representatives In the various branrfhes of the government. He believes that the masses know who to trust and know who have been true to the charges placed In their keeping. On this ground he Is a candidate and will leave the mat ter up to the voters to select the suc cessor. Many of the friends of Mr. Brooks were to-day talking about reasons why he should be the nominee of the party to succeed Mr. Kltchln. One reason given Is on account of his ex tensive acquaintance In the district. A PROTEST AGAINST "SALOME." Directors of Metropolitan Opera A Real Estate Co., Owner of Metro politan Opera House. Obiect to Pre- mentation of Sensational Opera. New York, Jan. 26. A .'.protest! against further presentation of "Sa lome," the sensational opera by Rich ard Strauss, has been made to Direc tor Conreid, of the Metropolitan Op era House, by the directors of the Metropolitan Opera & Real Estate Co., owner of the Metropolitan Op era House. "Dear Sir: The directors consider that the performance of 'Salome' is objectionable and detrimental to the best Interests of the Metropolian Op era House." The protest says: "Salome" Is based on Oscar Wilde's dramatic variant of the Biblical sto ry of the beheading of John the Bap tist, by Herod's order, to satisfy the caprice of Salome. The presentation last Tuesday night at a benefit performance for Director Conreid was the sensation of the opera season in Npw York and excited a great amount of comment and criticism, mostly directed at the character of the text of the opera, the "Dance oj the Seven -Veils," perform ed by Salome before Herod, and the kissing of the Hps of the severed head of John the Baptist by Salome. To-nlght the protest was discussed at. a meeting o the directors of the Conreid Opera Company. Iater a statement wa issued in which It waa Intimated that the production would be continued. It said: "Mr.- Conreid hopes that the direc tor of ' the Metropolitan Opera A Real Estat Co., upon full considera tion of the subject, will withdraw their objections and will share his view that the musical public is en titled to an opportunity to hear this master work adequately produced."

Mr. Leare told of a Masonic meeting that he attend ed In England, In 1901, at which the report was made that 1600,000 had been . spent on the education of or phans and' for charity during the preceding year, He said that the Masons in this country were still far behind those of , Europe In these essentials of true Masonry.

He said that the lady of his right (Mrs Ashcroft) had warned htm not to let his eloquence get too hot and bring upon him the fate of that now famous coffee-urn. The supper 'wa excellent, the speeches were fine, and when the company broke up at 11 o'clock it was the unanimous sentiment that the affair wa a thoroughly enjoy able one and that Monroe Lodge Is composed entirely of princes of hos pitality. ; i.
