Public concerts owe their direct en
couragement to John Banister, who
had won fame by his playing on the
VicMn - and who succeeded the cele
bru ed Baltzar "as leader of Charles IL's
bsuJ. of twenty-fojir violins. Pepys, in
an entry in his diary for . February,
ICC", tells us the court gossip of the
day "how the king's viallln Banister
Is i-iad that the king hath a French
m:.'i come to be chief of some part of
the king's musique."
i:.inister3 concerts at the close of the
year 1672 were advertised In the Lon
flon Gazette as follows: "These are to
give notice that at Mr. John Banister's
hor.se (now called the Mnslck School),
over against the George tavern In
White Fryers, the present Monday will
be musick performed by excellent mas
ters, beginning precisely at 4 of the
clock in the afternoon, and every after
noon for the future, precisely at the
Bame hour." , '
Four years later on we read again:
"At the Academy in Little Lincoln's
Inn Fields will begin the first part of
the Parley of Instruments, composed
by Mr. John Banister." The admission
was at this time as a rule a shilling,
and these concerts seem to have been
held pretty regularly down to within a
short time of Banisters death, which
took place in 1679. Chambers' Journal.
BIRTH OF. THE BUS.
This Clasa of Vehicle Flrat Appeared
In Pari In 1662. . - .
1e omnibus appeared in Paris in
16." 5w a "carrosse a cinq sous" (coach
for i.tft-snce halfpenny), by authority
of Louu XIV., under the management
of Pascal, the mystic and philosopher.
Whether this eminent thinker originat
ed the idea is not clear, but there Is no
doubt that his Influence assisted In the
establishment of the service under the
auspices of a royal decree.
Later on - these earliest . omnibuses
ceased to run owing to lack of support,
and did not reappear in Paris t until
1827, when Lafitte, the banker, who
was among the largest proprietors,
was credltedwlth originating the re
vived serviced , ? , v
: The new coaches started to ply in
London on July 4, 1829, when the first
one left Paddlngton for the Bank of
England, and another ran from the
bank to the Yorkshire Stingo, New
road. These first British busses were
known from the man who organized
them as "Shillibeers," and the conduc
tors of the first two are said to have
been the sons of British naval officers.
Three horses drew them, and. they car
tied twenty-two passengers, all Inside
