In order that the reader not now familiar ‘with the paper and its strong hold on the™) He may understand at a glance upor what elements Its great popularity is based, the opinions of some of its contemporaries as to ‘its merits are appended. It is needless to add ‘that no person is so good a judge of the value of any given newspaper as the men who con duct newspapers themselves. -What Other Papers Say About The Star.

JOHN GREGORY, Pastor of the Wesleyan Methodist Church at Pittston, Luzerne County, Pa. My Dear Sir:—Having at various times, person- ally, and in my own and other families, tested the great value of the medicine called PERUVIAN YRUP, Or PROTECTED SOLUTION OF PROTOX- IDE OF IRON, I most cheerfully recommend it, especially to those who are suffering from dyspep- tic and nervous disorders. As a reliable and pow- erful alterative, it is, I think, unsurpassed: and aga tonic, free from all the objectionable features of alcoholic remedies, it is a most efficient auxil- jary to the temperance cause, Oneof the greatest hindrances to the temperance reform at present is, as 1 think, the medical use of alcoholic stimulants. ‘Whatever may be argued as to thelr necessity In certain cases, we have in the PERUVIAN SYRUP & safe and efficient substitute for those dangerous remedies. This testimony is given unsolicited, with the hope that some who are not y quainted with the valuable properties of the medi. cine may be induced to give It a trial.

TRUER ADVERTISING.—Millions of dollars are annually thrown away in this country in useless and illegitimate advertising. The experience of all enterprising and successful business men is that nothing repays so well the money invested as adver- Using in a paper which EVERYBODY reads, That is the true way to secure publicity. The best bual- hess men know the value of advertising in such @ paper—and such a paper is THE EVENING STAR. It has the largest circulation in proportion to the Population of the city in which it is printed of any paper in the world. J¢ practically covere the whole field, The Boston Defalcation. John G. Tappan, the Boston defaulter, was interviewed in North Andover, Mass., and on being shown the newspapers with the state ments of facts coming from gentlemen who had been connected with him in business he expressed surprise. He at once declined to say anything in explanation, saying that “there could be nothing said that affected his character or standing in the community After hearing the sketch read, he declared the main statements to be absolutely and un qualifiedly false. William P. Hunt, president ot the Atlas bank, who was appointed ou the committee of investigation, gives the follow ng facts about the defalcation: The statement made at a meeting of the creditors on Monday was that Tappan had involved the company to the amount of $815,000.

The credit of the company had always been good, but for the past two or three months the banks had become somewhat suspicious, and some had declined to renew the paner which they had. His own bank held | the company’s paper to the amount Tappan be | private debts of from # $1,000, and it is very probable that his credit. ors Would object to the transfer of his prop +as made to the company, on the ground it was an attempt to favor the company | when expecting to fail. In this case a settle: ment between the company and Tappan would be delayed and made more difficult, but the payment of the company’s debts would not | be elected in consequence.
