. A AA AA AAA aa FFF ERR Ww ow Fr y Weww on Wwwww r Fre w w PPP A PoP a RX PPP AA ERX - AAA NN aa NNN THE EVENING STAR is a PAPER OF TO-DAY, not of YESTERDAY nor of LAST WEEK. It prints ALL THE EWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPERS. This is conspicuously true of all classes of news, but especially so in regard to Local News and District Affairs. | THE STAR has a very much LARGER and BETTER force of LOCAL RE- PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS than any other paper in Washington ever thought of employing, and ITS MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORE T NN THREE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY OTHEE WASHINGTON PAPER. Itis therefore able to print each day a full report of every transaction of public in- terest occurring in the District up to the very hour of going to press. 20%. By the free use of the OCEAN CABLES for REGULAR AND SPECIAL DIS- PATCHES, and with the difference of time in its favor, it is also able to give its readers every afternoon the news of the WHOLE EASTERN HEMISPHERE for the entire day, and up to 12 o’clock midnight, thus leaving literally nothing in the way of news from Europe, Asia, and Africa for the morning papers. Equally does THE STAR lead all its contemporaries in the publication of the NEWS GF OUR OWN COUNTRY. Receiving the regular dispatches of both News Associations; with alert and enterprising special telegraphic cor- respondents at all important points; and with wires leading directly from its own office to the general network of telegraph system touching every city, town and hamlet in the United States and Terri- tories, it is enabled to receive and print atonce a full report of every event of consequence occurring during the day anywhere between the Atlantic and Pa- citic Oceans. 202 = NOTE THE RESULT: ¢9 R HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR SUBSCRILGERS and MORE THAN YE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It is de- ivered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THE DAY ARE OVER, and it is thus read leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. They know that it prints all the news, and has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisan measures to advocate, and no private schemes to forward. They know it,in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, and nothingelse. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSO- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It is in fact worth more as a means of rtach- ing the public THAN ALL THE OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE CITY TOGETHER. - Furthermore, in proportion to the re- turns it gives its patrons, ITS ADVER- TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPEST IN THE CITY. 20; —— In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one significant fact: THE STAK does not rely upon empty boasts toimpress the public. ITS CIRCULA- TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL TESTS, which few papers invite, and which those that boast most are least able to stand. = The esteem in which THE STAR fs held by the reading and advertising public is conclusively shown by the fig- ures given below. In the first six mont of each of the five years named the average daily cir- culation of the paper was: In 1885........ 22,507 copies “« 1886.. 24,382 ** - 25,702 “ 1888. 1889. Equally significant is the showing in regard to the advertising patronage ot the paper, which is the surest Indication of its acknowledged value as a medium of publicity.

Liverroor, Aug. $.—In the Maybrick trial to-day Dr. Stevenson testified that all of May- brick’s symptoms indicated the use of arsenic. Maybrick’s nurse testified that when the prisoner tried to persuade Maybrick to take medicine he objected on the ground that the wrong medicine was being offered to him. Witness testified on crose-esamination that no improper food or medicine was given to brick while she was attending him. Mrs. M brick, she said, apeeired to be tender and con- siderate toward her husband. A waiter at Flatmann's hotel identified Mra. Maybrick as having occupied a bed room at the hotel with Brierley. After the introduction of this memesnange | the ecution announced that its case was closed. Bir Charles Russell ‘opened the case for the de- fense. He made u forcible speech, in which he urged that the j could not render a judgment ainst the ac- cused based on a probability, even if sup- ported by an apparent motive forj the commis- sion of a crime, if there was a show of doubt. He would prove that Mr. Maybrick had been a confirmed taker of arsenic for years. fesheba sadbumedl THE CREEK MONEY, Ex-Gov. Crawford May Be Indicted for Prepared by Maas.

New York, Aug. 8. — Notwithstanding the fact that it has beer raining almost steadily since a week ago yesterday, there is still no sign of clearing weather.
