THE FIRST STRIKE ON RECORD.
It Occurred In Rome and Took Place In
the Year 800 3. @.

It Occurred In Rome and Took Place In
the Year 800 3. G.
Livy, in his famous book, ''The An
nals' 9, 80, relates in the following
suggestive words the story of singular
strike which occurred in Rome in the
year 800 B. G. and was probably the
first strike ever known:
That year occurred an event little
worthy of being related, and which
would pass in silence had it not appeared
as involving religion. The flute players,
dissatisfied because the latest censors
had forbidden them to take part in the
banquet in Jupiter's temple, according
to the ancient custom, withdrew, every
one of them, to Thur, so that nobody
was left at Rome to play during the sac
rifices. This incident shocked the reli-
gious sentiment of the senate, and the
senators sent messengers to invite the in
habitantS of Thur to make every effort
in order that the players should be re-
stored to the Romans. The Tiburtines,
having promised not to neglect any
thing necessary for that purpose, caused
the flute players to come to the place
where the senate met and exhorted them
to 60 back to Rome. Seeing that they
could not prevail upon them to do so,
they employed strategem in keeping
with their character.
On day of festival, under pretext
that music would increase the joy of the
feast, every citizen invited the futs
players individually to his house, and
wine, of which people of that profession
are usually fond, was given to them in
such quantities that they fell into
deep sleep. They were then thrown into
wagons and transported to Rome They
only became aware of whs., had hap.
pened on the day after, when dawn
surprised them lying on the carts,
which had been left in the forum a
large crowd had assembled, and they
were induced TO promise that they would |
remain at Rome. The right of attend |
ing the banquets was restored to these |
finite players New York T1;buna
A brilliant scheme was adopted the
other day by a theatrical company
which found itself stranded at Dayton,
o., and its next engagement at Cleve-
land. A plan was made for the arrest
Of one Of the members of the company
on the charge of opening letter be-
longing to another member. The ac-
cused was taken before the United
States commissioner at Cleveland, where
The other members. of the company were
as witnesses. They of course
secured his acquittal and also their fees.

most profitable engagement they have
played this season, but the commission
r is willing to bet that they can't play

Anybody desiring an exciting occupa-

usual risks in such business the work
men daily encounter the danger of being
blown up by bombs. A good deal of
scrap metal bought for the melting pots
comes from the continent, where it
seems, carelessness has almost reached
the rank of virtue. 1t is a common
thing to find loaded military bombs
among the refuse. The workmen must
always be on the lookout for them.
For the second time within week one

blown sky high. First it was an old gun.
