NO MORE RUNS ARE SCORED after that, and Mr. O'Day keeps improving his strike-out record, and the visitors come in for their half of the twelfth.

This claim ts based upon certain ‘Armly-established facts, which are weil worthy ‘Whe consideration of ail persons interested in com- municating With the public in regard to any busi. ‘ess proposition Whatever, It rests primarily oa ‘Whe broad and solis foundation that Twe Stax cir.

And not oniy is its circulation the largest and fullest, but 11 is also the wast, since the paper goes not alone into the hands of the People of the District of Columbia asa dody, Dut Into theit homea—into Che families of all classea, And Into those of the money-spending an well as ‘the money-carning portion of the commnuaity,—ta larger ratio than any dally journal of general circulation that can be Damned.

They not only show tue circulation and advertising patronage of (he paper for the several years named, but, by the remarks.

F. B. Noves, ‘Treasurer Evening Star Newspaper Co. Sworn to and subscribed before me this elg! Veenth day of January, A.D. 1888. | * Bea SEY | Of the total cireulation given above, the booksat the establishment show that an average Of 17,025 copies were regularly delivered each day by car Mers at the homes of permanent subscribers wit aia the city, Of the remainder a daily average of 6,421 copies were sold at the office, in the hotels and railway Stations, &c., and on the streets, by newsboys, making @ grand total average within the city of 24,046 copies dally, aud leaving an average of 1,438 copies to be sent toregular sum scribers beyond the District lines by mall, express and ratiway trains. In addition to the lange and constantly increas. tng fixed subscription list above referred to, it may bbe said that of the 6,421 copies sold within its lim- tsa larger proportigg, are vought by permanent Tesidents of the city, living in lodgings, &c., not householders, while the residue goes into the hands of transient visitors, from all parts of the couutry, Whoeach year come to the National Capital im greater numbers and for longer periods, and who, furthermore, largely represent the well-to-do and purchasing portions of the communities to which they respectively Delong. The last-named isa class of readers alone well worth reaching; but it 1s to the phenomenally large permanent ciroula- on of the paper, andespecially to its unparalleled hold upon the household and family circle, that the attention of advertisers is particularly a rected. A comparison of the foregoing figures with those representing the entire population of the District of Columbia will show that Tax Stax circulates ‘Within its limits something more than one copy for about every eighth inhabitant, of whatever call | race, creed, age, or station in life; and, realizing ‘the extent to which Its columns are scanned by CLAIR: | the several members of Uhe families into which tt goes, it 1s not extravagance to claim that the paper is read every day by fully two-thurds of the population of te District who are able to read! ‘Can this record be matched by that of any news ‘the facts and Agures given above, and the value of a circulation of such extent and character, with ‘out amplification or comment. In conclusion, it only remains to be said that the subscription lista, the books of the office, and ite press and delivery rooms are at all times open to ‘the welcome inspection of any person having © colorable interest in the correctness of the state ments beretn made. ‘The Certificate of am Expert.
