OPERA HOUSE BOYS CHAMPAGNE ADVENTURE.
Naw Your, July lab
An extraordinary comedy of boyhood was unfolded to-day in the Children's Court bera. In the prisoner, dock were thres urchins, aged between 10 and 11 years, who confessed with many tests that they were the ring-kaders of a pira club, the members of which found their way 10 days ago into the closed halls of the Metropolitan Opera House,
It was only yesterday that Mr Emil Katz, the esterer who supplies suppers after the performance, to Bignor Caruso and other world-famous stars made the Painful discovery that his store-roum had been raided and the content reduced to chsos Detectives were set to watch Fam building, and late in the evening they saw the three urchins cautiously climbing up the fire escape to the roof, whence they descended by trapdoor into the interior of the Opera House
After their capture the boys explained the history of their great adventure, U
olested they had conducted their pirates: ciab for many rollicking days and nights. By emptying bags of sugar on the floor they had constructed a good imitation of a sen beach on a coral island. The foam- ing contents of rare champagne bottles had produced the effects of surffter pour ing some £300 worth of this procion, liquid on the beach the lads discovered that the resulting mixture had a most accept- able taste. A boxing ring was, their next | enterprise. The spirit of commerce then tooved them to remove the champagne, which the eaterer values at £9) a bottle, and to sell the prohibited beverage az Ba a magnum. With the proceeds they chased fireworks
The boys compain that a pair of opera glasses they offered for sale in the street near the Opera House was seized by a lady who disappeared into an under- ground railway station without paying the half-crown demanded of her. The caterer estimates that the escapadle of the pirates cont him over £1,000 ---Zimex.
