THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: FRIDAY larch 18, 1987. e OSBY Ss. NOY _ ee ‘The Evening tar has a regular. permane bona fide daily circutation more than trebie that of any other daily paper published Im Washington, and much greater than that ef all her daily papers here added together. Advertisers Will serve thefr own purpose best, and at the ume time greatly accommodate Tae Stan, if they will send in before noon to-morrow their announcements for the extra lange eidition of Saturday's paper, the forms of which must be sent to press much éarlier than om the other five days of the week. One of the witnesses! the investigation of the Bussey bridge disaster says that he notified the Failroad company some years ago of indications (f weakness in the bridge, and, on a second notin cation, Was told that he wes borrowing a good Geal of trouble about that bridge, and that if he was afraid to ride he had better walk. It 1s very hard for these corporations to put up with a med- dlesome and inquisitive public, which 1s con- stantly wanting to know why things are not cleaner, of more conventent, or safer, and 1s for- ever borrowing trouble becanse a few people are Foasted in a burning car or dashed to death through a broken bridge. The malignant persist- ence of certain busy twxlles in examilning and test- ingthe Bussey bridce, and proclalming open! the discovery of flaws must arouse the deep ind! nation of the annoyed rafiroad. What have these meddiers to do with the matter? If they are afraid, or don’t like the strie of can't they walk? If corporatioz wants instead of pubile m would have noright tocomplatin of the unbearable officious- ess of the publi Stokes says he never saw or possessed the Alleged Sparks anti-Cleveland letters, but that somebody came to him evidently with the inten- ton of showing the letters or of talking the mat- ler over, probably always provided, however, that such letters exist, and there Is anything to talk about. And Sparks dentes that he wrote such letters. Now who and where is the man who evidently Intended to show Stokes the letters which Sparks did not write, and what would the Sparks letters (not written by Sparks) have been found to contain, if they had been shown to ‘Stokes, in conformity with this evident intentlon? ——— Mayor Hewitt, of New York, has begun a cru Sade against the obtrusive horse-car nulls which destroy the comfort and imperil the safety of travel through the streets t city.

Itisa bright, neat, lively sheet, but We see it uses couspicuousty, erediting it to a Western paper, the interview with Congressman Milliken, of Maine, on presidential eandidates that appeared originally word for word in THE STAR as Jong ago as March 14, The Sun has inadvertently onseveral other occasions credited other papers With Stak matter. If the Sun clipper would bear in mind that interesting Washington matter of this sort almost invariably apoears originally in ‘THE Stak, he could, by seesiuc 1 In this paper, Rot only get the news more seasonably, but could— asthe Sun always conscientiously alms to do— give credit in the proper quarter.

The proverbial small boy to whove credit is placed & long list of Juvenile depredations, has yet some in- alienable rights which his elders are bound to respect, among which are life, liberty and fashionable Gar ments. This busy old world seems to bein too much of ahurry to consider this last article of boys’ rights and treats him as though his pride was going to devel- ope about the same time his mustache does.

BOYS’ AND CHILDREN’S SUITS, ‘With your permission we'll now say afew words about more substantial covering—Suits, for instance. ‘The cool weather of to-day reminds us that we still have quite a number of heavy weight suits for little fellows, with which it might be well to “patch out” the balance of the season. Ages 4 to 13—-All-wool Suits at 82.95, would be good values at $5: not one kind alone but quite s number of different patterns, including ‘4 line of Corduroy Suits at same figure.

SAES AND COMPANY. EILT SvITs. ‘There is no wider field for the exercise of “Art’* in its broadest sense than in the manufacture of Kilt ‘Suits for children. We have too much respect for your intelligence to imagine it necessary to say the child- Fen we refer to are BOYS, not girls. In the frst Place, the greatest care and the most refined taste are Recessary in selecting the material and trimmings to match. then the designer's genius is drawn upon, and lastly the most skillful operative alone can make up & Kilt Suit as it should be made—as oursare made—and wikn complete the Kilt is a thing of beauty, ‘We are offering some handsome little Kilts as low a8 $3, some a trifle better for $3.50, others ‘$4, $4.50 and up to the choicest product of the artist's skill—a dream realized—a poem mate- rislized—for which we charge $15. It would be idle to attempt to describe these Kilt Suits, be~ causethere are so many colors and combine- tions of colors enter into the tout ensembdie of = Rilt Suit that it would take an entire column of ‘The Star to describe one well. Can we—without taxing your credulity too much—impress on your mind the fact that we have in stock every- thing in the line of Kilt Suits that’s worth hay- ing. Styles to suit every taste, from the plain- est and quietest to the most extravagant. Kilts are like Shirt Waista. To make success of the ‘business they must be carried in quantities large enough tosuit everybody. That's how ‘We've got ‘em. BAKS AND COMPANY. SEPARATE PANTS.

A short time ago Thad the extreme pleasure of lis- tening to a lecture delivered by an eminent minister, who Felated that when he was » young man he was asked to makes speech. Not knowing what to say, he consulted an old bishop, who advised him to speak of “his own experience,” which he did, and he did well for the first time, T have taken the hint, and it reminds me of my Younger days, when I was about thirteen years old. Dur- ing the time of the German Revolution in the year 1848 sume riots and disturbances took place in a small town of Hesse-Cassel, where I then lived. While, one day, Brent excitement was going on, an old hard caseof = man called at our house and proclaimed himself “The Protector of the People,” and for this protection he demanded five cents. My fosterfather handed the five cents with the remark: “God havemercy on our people Sf they have to rely on that sort of Protector.” ‘And 80 you hear throughout this country “MONOP- OLISTS” telling you: “We are your benefactors and Protectors.” May God save the “American People” from such “Benefactors!” ‘The undersigned hereby informs his patrons and the Public that our discount of TIT REE NN N t EO NNN a: T KEE N NN PPP, ERE RRR CCU EEE NN N TIT BoP Ee Eat § ° Be NEN F ER FE NNN T Br oge 68 og BON RN OT Pe ERE ROR COO ERR NNN T ‘will continue for one week.
