The Rialto Club held its nightly
meeting at the Beanery last night.
The Josher called the meeting to
order and every member except
Handsome George and Red Cook
was present. They, however, sent
their regrets via freight, which are
expected to arrive next week.
Much business was transacted and
further time was granted to the
Committee on Hash and Laundry.
The Amateur reported that the
Morton-Kress combine refused to
join the Trust, and had placed an
ad in the N. Y. Clipper calling for
professionals for the coming season.
The Roaster casually suggested
that judging from the number of
actors wanted, it seemed that when
the Combine" exploded in stock
car near water tank at Mande-
vile, all that appeared to be saved
was the NIX title. After passing
the cigarettes around the meeting

Senator James X. Jones has intro
duced a meritorious measure, that
should be pushed through congress
to prevent and punish blacklisting
by railroad companies, sleepingcar
companies, express companies, tele-
graph ard telephone companies
aud steamboat companies engaged
in interstate commerce, and also to
provide a civil remedy in damages
for blacklisting. 1t is a very lengthy
measure and goes into the subject
of blacklisting and provides meth
ods of obtaining information con-
cerning the same. Corporations are
directed to keep a record of en-
ployes, and every employed is entitled
to see his record. The bill prohibits
blackIisting for participation in a
strike or labor troubles. Officers or
employees of a corporation convicted
of blacklisting any person are to be
punished by Imprisonment not less
than two nor more than ten years.

An Expensive Fad.

That music is useless and ex-

med up by the London Musical Standard:
He points out that there are 100000 souls
in the British Isles. housed in. say, 1000
000 homes. At least one in seven of the
latter contains a piano; that means L.
oo0.0o0 pianos, which, at, say. SEQ apiece,
works out at f2o09o,o00 for pianos. A piano
lasts. say, ten years. and these figures
show a yearly expenditure of e2,0OOO10
for the instruments alone Of the six or
seven people in such homes, probably two
t1earn to play the piano and each spends.
say, two hours each day in learning"
This means an expenditure of 1000 900
hours-eauivalent to 100000 working days
of eight hours each-spent every day in
the British Isles in learning the piano.
''ro what purpose he demands, Ms this
waste and then goes on to say that
probably one in every 10000 proves
good player, and with exception of this
small fraction OF eco out of 100000, the
net result Is the turning loose of 1899, SEQ

that. Hurry Becomes a Habit; so does
Worry. 1t is as impossible to throw off
one as the other. The man who has been
in hurry all his life is no greater victim
to the habit formed in youth than the
woman who continually worries Every
phase Of existence can be turned into
some excuse for worry. When worry
gets the upper hand housekeeping is an

LYNCHGURG AND IT'S PEOPLE. By
Rev. Asbury Christian. j. p. Bell Com
pany, Lynchburs, publishers. Fer SAFE
by the Bel Book and Stationery Com
pany, Richmond. Va.
Lynchburg is fortunate in having KEY.
Asbury Christian as its historian. he IS
80 the manor BORN his family has had
much to do with making Lynchburg
fine city, and the author is devoted 10
Iynchburg and her interests. In the work
under, review Mr. Christian has traced the
history OF Lynchburg from IT'S foundation
by the man for whom the city was named,
and it is an interesting and instructive study
to follow the narrative and see how, step
by step, a rich and prosperous city vas
built UP, and that, too, in the lace OF many
and seemingly, iusurmountable Obstacles
The Times has often remarked that it is
the men and not the location that make
CITY. and this fact is abundantly exploited
In the history of Isynchburs, for physically
speaking, the location OF Iynchburg was
certainly against the city growth me
founder builded more extensively IMAM ne
knew He had no idea of building city,
but only small town, and the single hiI
that he selected was ample.
But the single hill was not large enough
for LynchburS. for very early in The game
Lynchburgers showed that they We're true
eXpansonists, and when the one MI nau

to seek other building sites, ana mat was
a problem not easy OF SOLUTION But Lynch
burgers had the tr'le grit OF eApansionlsts,
and they made {. ctt5-even il some resi-
dents do occupy positions Whlch endp-e
them 10 look down their neighbors' CHM
neys.
Necessarily Mr. Christians narrative is
largely local, but collateral history OF q
general character is followed from era to
era and the part that Lynchburg played
in the history Of the NATION is exploited.
Especially is this true of that period COW
cred by the war between the States. and
the battles around Lynchburg are described
in detail. A feature Of the book IS the per
sonal history of the men who nave Insured
conspicuously in the history OF LynchburS
and the State. The Lynches, the Chris
tians, General Early General Oearlns'
John Warwick Daniel, solder ana states
man, and many others are sketched, and
their work for city, State and county duiy
signalized.
Mr.. Christians style is simple, but fluent
and engaging, ana there Is thread OF
humor which runs through from preface
to finish. He is preacher who sees the
laughable side as well as the serious sue
OF life ana while in tracing the rel'siot's
history OF Lynchburs which IS q feature OF
the book, he does not ignore me luhly
things that occurred, and the entire Worh
sparkles with humorous anecaote. bu'
the author would not be an ortnodoA y: Nett ,e
