EANDBALL.
Some Spirited Contests at the Y. vi,
C. A. Court Last Night.

Shortly after s O'Clock last night the
contestants for the second set of hand
ball in the tournament at the Young
Mems Christian Association stepped
into the court. Alex McCaw and Bruce
Philip We're the young men, and they
were both in fine trim.
AS was expected, the first game was
closely contested. At the first serve
McCaw made six aces and Philip made
seven. Then there was a series of
hand outs. with an occasional ace for
one side or the other, until finally the
game was won by Philip with a score
of u to II.
The next two games were also won
by Philip by scores of respectively 2t
to 8 and p to s. The boys were well
matched. Philip had the advantage in
reach, but McCaw's quick recoveries
served him many good turns.
The third set was played by John
Fechter, Jr., and e. A Brown Fechter
won three games over Brown, the scores
being y to II. 21 to II, and p to IS.
These two young men play well, and
are very good in placing the ball, while
some of their recoveries We're splendid.
Brown failed in judgment, being some
what over confident at times
On the whole, the evenings games
were well played, and those who come
after will have work to do to win
Thursday evening is set apart for
handball, and there will then be some
good games. Both men and women
are invited to come and enjoy the
games.
All the members of the association
are especially requested to remember
the annual meeting of the association
on Friday evening at O'Clock.

The Staunton News serves notice on
those who are forever talking about the
great scarcity OF money IN Virginia that
IT knows OF considerable money TO lend
on the usual terms on real estate In the
city and county, but which is lying idle
because there are no borrowers, although
they have been repeatedly advertised for.
We doubt If there has been a time since
the war when money was as easy to bor-
row as IL is at this time. But, as we said
yesterday, that counts for nothing with
the free silver bowler. He says, and we
have heard him say, that the man who
had the necessary collateral does not need
TO borrow money, it is the man who has
no collateral who is in need and he is the
man that free silver is going to benefit.
II is Just that sort of humbuggery that
is largely responsible for the free silver
sentiment to-day. For our part. we have
never yet learned how 20 get something
for nothing, and no matter how plentiful
money is no man is going to get It with
out giving value received. The circulation
in this country might be doubled to-mor-
row, but the man who goes borrowing
must give q good well secured note or he
will not get his loan.
II amuses us no little 10 hear the con-
slant cry of the silver people that the
''gold bugs" are opposed to free silver be.
cause II would make prosperity for the
masses. We cannot think that any reas-
enable man really believes that absurd
thing. If there should be general pros
perity in this country from any cause,
free silver or what not, we are just vain
enough 10 think that We would get our
share OF H. If we believed that free sill
yer would bring the blessings that its adj
vocates claim FOR 1t, The Times would be
the liveliest free silver paper in this State.
But we 90 not believe It. On the con-
trary, we believe 1t would bring disaster
and ruin and for that reason, and that
reason only. we are opposed 10 it and
have fought It and will continue to fight
II TO the bitter end.

A DEAD ISSUE-

Inc salem Sentinel, a strong advocate
Ok Tree silver, reproduces from The Times
an editorial on the decision of Great
Britain with reference to the proposed
international monetary conference. with
the following comment:
The above editorial from the Times
states clearly the present condition Of
our monetary matters. Tho Issue be-
tween bimetallism and monametalism is
now clearly drawn. The subterfuge OF
international agreement" upon which
President Mckinley was elected Presi-
dent for the coming four years is now
removed and the gold standard must
stand upon It's own merits. Hiding be-
hind other issues is no longer available.
The goldites must stand or fall upon the
single gold standard. and when they at
tempt to maintain the righteousness OF
this standard their former speeches and
records will rise up as a veritable Ban
quos' ghost to confront them. The fu-
ture is 10 decide this momentous Ques-
ton and the bimetallst will have a fair
chance at last
1t cost the United States 800, OOO TO
get Great Britsin's answer to this ques-
ton, but the money was well spent.
Many people had pinned their faith 10
international bimetallisT so-oalled and
others, as we remarked in the editorial
which our Salem contemporary quotes,
had used II as a miserable subterfuge.
The people would never have been sat
isfied until they made a test Of the
matter. and we are genuinely glad that
the case has been finally decided. Tho
verdict is just what we predicted It
would be, but a verdict is not verdict
until It has been rendered. One thing
is very sure. international bimetallism IS
a dead issue and that phase Of the silver
question Is done with.
We are ready at all times to meet this
question and when we meet it we de-
sire to meet it face to face and in the
open. We want no lodges or subtcr-
fuges, but a fair and square fight, let
the result be what 1t may

from the Southern TobacconIst, whose
editor Mr.. william u. Dibrell. has done
so much for this market. What MT. d.
brcll now says is what he has said time
and again before. But he says II this time
with, perhaps, more force and vlgor than
ever, and we hope that his article Will
have the desired effect.
lie tells us that the loose sales In Rich
mond attracted more home buying OF
hogshead tobacco and brought more buy
ers here than before. This is important.
The building up OF large loose tobacco
trade in this city must necessarily help
every other branch Of the tobacco indus
try. The loose trade Is OF first Importance.
because every other department Of the
trade is dependent upon a good supply
OF leaf. This is so manifest that II does
not need to be demonstrated even TO a
layman. IL Richmond should sell during
the next year forty million pounds Of leaf
tobacco, we believe that the tobacco IN
dustry of this city in fits entirety would
receive such an impetus as it has never
known.
On the other hand, Richmond cannot
possibly be rated as an all-round tobacco
market, until IT has established Itself as
hrst-class loose market. That too. we
think, Is a proposition so plain that 1t
needs only to be stated.
Give us the loose market, and other
branches Of the industry will take care
OF themselves.
