4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ae ---Juy 2, 1889. SHE EVENING STAR has tne fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the Worid, and as en Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published Washington. = es Bow York Offices Room 93, Tribune Building. ——__ Figures that Talk. By the sworn tabular statement published in this column yesterday it was shown that the Bverage daily circulation of Tur Eventxe Star last week wns 1,775 greater than for the cor- Fesponding week in 1898. This isa very grati- fying exhibit, and indicates in a perfectly plain ‘and conclusive manner the steady and rapid Srowth of the paper, and the firm hold it has on the confidence of the people of Washington. It does not, however, tell the whole story of progress, Acomparison of the circulation and adver- tising patronage of the paper for the month of Jane, 1839, with that of June, 1888, and forthe first six months of this year with the corre- Bponding portion .: 1888, is even more signifi- cant and convincing, since the periods thus covered are longer, and the constant and large increase in the two branches of business is thereby more clearly and firmly demonstrated. ‘To illustrate: The average daily circulation for June, 1988, was 27,453, while during June this Year it was 30,173, showing the very band- some increase 2,720 .»,ics,—this, too, in the face of the fact that there were abnormally large demands for daily papers during a large part of June, 1888, consequent upon the sittings of the two great nati» val political conventions held in Chicagothat month. And no less satis- factory has been t.¢ growth of the advertising business of the z\per 2June of this year, as compared with that of the corresponding month last year. In June, 1889, the numberof new advertisements printed in the columns of ‘Tur Stan was 5,529, against 4,606 in June last year, showing the handsome increase in that department for a single month of no less than 923 new announcements. But evidences of permanent growth are not te be found alone in a comparison covering merely thirty days. The exhibit for the first six months of the two years shows an average inerease in circulation of 3,177 copies, while the number of new advertisements printed during the firstsix months of this year ex- ceeded those of the corresponding period last year by 4,612, or an average increase month by month of 768. These figures need no comment on the part of Taz Stan. They show what the public think of it as a newspaper and as an advertising medium, and that testimony it submits as more substantial and convincing than any thing it could itselZ say on the subject. Other papers can blow their own horn, to their hearts’ con- tent. The popular voice speaks for Tux Star. a The report that Major Lydecker is real angry, don’t you know, to be ordered away sev- eral thousand miles from the scene of his club- room inspection of tunnel excavation, is caleu- lated to alarm both the big United States and the little District, each of whom has contrib- uted a million dollars tobe buried in the ground and lost by Major Lydecker, and each of whom is deeply interested in removing that officer as far as possible from tunnels and club-rooms. The pleasure of the major's presence at the capital is a too expensive Turury, and despite his dissatisfaction it must be firmly, if reluctantly, insisted that he go. It mey be added that Major Lydecker’s anger is unreasonable. If it be sweet and pleasant for the patriot and soldier to die for ‘one’s country it ought to be sweet and pleasant for a patriotic major to travel for the good of his country and for the good of his country’s capital, Major Lydecker’s lot is not an un- happy one. His neglect has wasted two mil- lions of dollars. He is punished by a fine of $900, payable on easy terms in monthly installments of 2100, and is “banished” to Vancouver, which ranks next to the Presidio at San Francisco as the most agree- able post on the Pacific coast. This exile is not to a solitude “where rolls the Oregon and hears no sound save its own dashing,” but to a picturesque situation on the banks of the Co- lumbia, close to one of the oldest towns in the region, and connected by a narrow-gauge rail- road with Portland, six miles distant, the sec- ond largest city on the Pacific coast. It may be added as of special interest to the exile that the society is considered to be excellent. There is nothing pathetic in such banishment, or in any feature of Major Lydecker’s case. ‘The District of Columbia is the only party to the tunnel transaction deserving public sym- pathy. The government exacts from ita mil- lion dollars to pay for worthless work for which it is not responsible and from which it has derived no benefit. It is punished by a heavy fine for no fault of its own. It has pleaded for water and has received instead a million dol- lars’ debt. It would like, if it could, to ex- change punishments with Major Lydecker. It may be well to wait for Captain Rockwell's ‘written report to his employers, in which he will be likely to confine himself to a cool and measured recital of facts, before forming a final opinion on the affair of the Clyde steamer Ozama in Haytian waters, But the story this Officer tells orally of his adventure, and espe- cially of Captain Kellogg's share in it, is re- freshing to the ears of Americans, so long ac- eustomed to hear their navy derided as worth- fees because of the stinginess of Congress in providing for its improvement. Evidently wo are not to be bullied. at any rate by little Hisyti. So far as the navy and its officers are concerned, however, an opposing force even ‘vastly superior has not modified the vigor with which the national honor has been maintained. ‘The Kellogg incident carries the mind back to the day when Captain Ingraham on his sloop St. Louis took his position off Smyrna and pro- posed to blow the blue lights out of a whole Austrian fleet because a man who had declared his intentions to become an American citizen had been roughly handled. The grit on the part of our Yankee officers ought in all fair- ness to have something substantial in the way Of ships and armament behind it, The Ameri- an people, when occasion demands an act of special gallantry, have, however, reason to feel proud of their navy in spite of its present in- significant proportions. As the juvenile patient said of his pill: “It’s littic, but—oh, my!” $$ The New York Herald makes out an interest- ing showing for its theory regarding the dis- appearance of Dr. McInerny; but it has a case harder to unravel than that at which the Chi- ago police have been working, for it lacks ‘what the lawyers know as the corpus delicti, No dead body has been found and identified as that of the New York doctor, who may merely Ihave fied and hid himself on learning that he was marked for removal.

Our buyer—and we've one con- tinually in the market—heard of them—Lunted them up—made an offer. It was accepted and now we've added these suits to our #10 line. There wouldn't have been tho slightest trouble earlier in the season of classing them with 818 qualities, But time works wonders, It was our offer, or total loss to the manufacturer. Our offer makes "em $10 suits,but the quality’s still there, Tt was quite an addition—the more appreci- ated because it was unexpected. We needed them, too. The two weeks that we! ve been call- ing your attention to our $10 line has seen hundreds of them go out, aud we were running alittle short, but this last addition of a half- thousand puts us in apple-ple order again, We're glad to seo the way you take hola of ‘these suits, You don’t look upon them in the light of 810 creations. Neither are they. ‘There's not asuit in the lot that was made np for the $10 trade—12, $15 and $18 are the tracks they were built to run on, but wo switched them on to our $10 main-line, and they're making fast time, beating all records, w to speak. We don't want to praise the cut, fit and finish, for according to our ideas they must possess these virtues linked in perfection; if they don't they are not suils—only botches. You ex- pect them to fit, to be well made, and to be eut in the latest expression of fashion, and s0 long as taks and Company are offering them you can wagor they are, whether the price is 810 or 850. The quality of tho fabrics and the little em- Dellishments that are used in $15 and g13 suits are in these. The patterns are those of the higher-class goods, and the weavings you'll re- cognize at once as belonging to the “upper crust.” Caasimeres and Chevicts in designs that reach the vanity. “Takers,” every one of thom.
