CITY AND DISTRICT. &® A recently published work on “The Artof Advertising” says: “A point which will afford Teliable information as to the value of a publi- eution as au advertising medium is the close- ess with which the publisher adheres to his advertising rates.” Tux Star invariably holds to its rates; and, what is of greater importance to the advertiser, i charges everybody the same Price for the same service. This few papers do! OLD AND NEW FATHERLAND. The Banquet of the German-American Technical League. A great success was the banquet to which the members of the German-American technical Yeague sat down last night in Edel’s hall. All the delegates and the visiting and local mem- bers were & bay respective places at 8 o'clock —nearly tw6 hundred in all. A fair proportion of the diners were of the feminine gender and the combination of womaniy beanty, manliness, Bors) decorations, choice viands and free-flow- ing wines made the occasion one long to be re- membered. Mr. Carl Binder of Chicago pre- sided and President Charles Kinkel of the Washington society acted as toast master. “Technical science and the German-Ameri- can technical league” was responded to by Carl Binder, who sketched in a very interesting ner the mental differences in the respect- ive characters of Germans and Americans. ‘The former, he said, were theoretical; the lat- ter practical. The ‘combined distinctions re- sulted satisfactorily. “The old and the new fatherland” was the sentiment to which O. Luthy of Philadelphia devoted bis eloquence. He was heartily ap- plauded and at conclusion of his speech the entire assemblage sang “Die Wacht am Rhein,” the band accompanying them, fortis- ich of Cincinnati was more than complimentary in bis response to “The la- dies,” and S. H. sko® of Pittsburg made a number of happy lats in his brief dissertation ou “Social jo: “The office of the technical association” received justice end eulogy in the utterances of C. Hummel, while “The press” was attended tom comprehensive but not fulsome manner by Augustus Kurth of New York. lly invited guest present were F. ttkumer of the German legation, Simon Wolf, Wm. C. Fox (who was for thir- teen years a U States consul in Ger- many), and A. Holinger of Chicago. In response to persistent calls Mr. Wolf made aspeech. a very Lumorous one and bighly ap- Preciated. OFF TO MOUNT VERNON. This morning the members of the league ‘Went to Mount Vernon, and this evening at 7 o'clock they willinspect the naval observatory by invitation of Prof. Assph Hall, There will be a business session of the convention at 9 m. and another one tomorrow. The proceed- will end tomorrow night in a social gath- at Edel’s hall. Washington Horses at Frederick Races.

PENNSYLVANIA PROHIBITIONISTS. They are Going to Suppress the Saloon | Two Million of Dollars Sunk in Boring Outside Party Lines. The Union probibitory league of Pennsylva- nia, having for its object the suppression of the saloon outside of party lines, held its first con- vention in Bittsburg yesterday, with about 100 delegates in attendance. The committee on permanent organization reported as follows: President, A. J. Kynett of Philadelphia; vice presidents, A. J. Rickets of Wilkesbarre, A. C. Rankin of Allegheny; secretary, Wellington E. Loucks of Philadelphia; treasurer, W. W. Wal- lace of Philadelphia. The report was adopted and the officers declared elected, ‘The platform adopted recites the evils grow- ing out of the liquor traffic and declares that the constitutional prohibitory amendment failed in June last because of the unfair litical methods of those opposed to it. It, therefore, concludes that ‘mck a verdict cannot be bong eg as final, but as the constitution cannot be amended for five years to come it favors the most restrictive legislation and the enforcement of the present policy of probibi- tion in the counties which voted therefor. The league will favor the election of candidates to — office, without respect se ae ‘ty, who will est represent its principles and it urges the organization of union prohibitory leagues in every city, county, and town in the state, eee! THE HAMILTON BABY. Mrs. Rupp Does Not Think She Has Been Paid Enough tor Its Care. Mrs. Rupp, in whose cottage at Atlantic City, N.J., nurse Mary Donnelly was stabbed by Mrs, Robert Ray Hamilton, has returned to her home in Philadelphia and has with her little Beatrice, the Hamilton baby made famous through revelations brought to light during the trial of Mrs. Hamilton. Mrs. Rupp says Mr. Hamilton desires her to take care of the child until he ean otherwise arrange for it, Mrs, Rupp is dissatisfied with the amount of money paid her by Mr. Hamilton. She says that before leaving Atlantic City Mr. Hamilton told her that “if she needed money to address him through his New York lawyer.” She wrote to him asking for 1,000. She thought this a reasonable request as she had been put toa great deal of trouble through the scandalous aifair at her cottage, and her boarding house business had been entirely broken up. In re- ply to her letter she has received a check for Eabo., which insignificant amount she looks upon as an insult. She will care for the baby, however, until Mr, Hamilton decides what to do with it. Mrs. Rupp says that Mary Don- nelly. the nurse, has accepted an offer of 875 a week to appear at one of the New York dime museums, gO WISCONSIN’S BANK ROBBERY. Will the Bank or Express Company Stand the Loss? There is little likelihood that the money taken from the Iron Exchange bank at Hurley, Wis. last Friday night will be recovered, The cracksmen left no clue to their identity. The burg- tars and money have disappeared as completely, as if at the bottom of the river. This brings the parties interested in the rob- bery to the question as to who will stand the loss of the $39,000. It is understood that the U. S. express company will make an attempt to shift the blame for the loss of the money on the bank and litigation in the courts seems to be the inevitable result. From the fact that no reward has been yet offered tor the capture of the men_ gulity of the burglary, which is usually done in such cases by the express company, the conclusion is drawn that it is to show that they are not in- terested in bringing the x robbers to conviction. The Marriage of ithe Kaiser’s Sister. A London dispatch says: The alleged reluct- ance of Emperor William to give his august ap- proval to the marriage of his sister with the crown prince of Denmark is merely assumed for effect. Protestant princes are not so plenty en the continent that there are many sprigs of royalty eligible for the hand of the Princess Margaret. The condescending terms in which the German official press speak of the contem- plated alliance are sufficiently amusing in view of the desirable position held by the northern power, which, if the marriage tukes place, may be in future considered as vir- tually if not openly bound to the destinies of Germany, Asa maritime power producing a famous race of sailors and covering practically the few German seaports Denmark will be able to prove herself no despicable friend in the hour of need, It may be easily believed that the czar is furious at the prospect. und in view of the ties which bind the Danish royal family to him it will hardly be wise for the arrogaut German monarch to display any real or pretended dis- like to the match too openly. SS tage “Si ce John Burns to Go to Australia. Jobn Burns’ desire to show himself to the Australians and receive their plaudits as the man who led to a passably success- ful end the greatest strike in his- tory is very natural, As a new country, containing a warm-hearted and easily aroused people, who gave £25,000 to the Lon- don strikers Australia must be particularly interesting to him and he is shrewd enough to sec that with the disbandment of his army he resumes his former position asa commen workman whose further vociferation would merely stamp him as a disturber of the wace, or, far worse, a bore. Among the free- hearte men of the fifth continent Burns may pose a while as a knight errant of labor reform and his lectures will probehiy net him a sufficient sum to enable him to accept a seat in parliament on his re- turn home without calling on his constitu. ents for monetary mprert. Asa member for some metropolitan district at the mercy of electors whose purse strings would be closed 2 the sightest sigu of independence of opinion, same tenacious will ond voluble tongue t at gained him bis celebrity would probably consign himpermanently to private life, Brad- laugh has guined his assured position by a rare patience and tact which the suddenly suc- cessful Burus has not yet shown that he pos- sesses, ee. Forty-five Victims at Quebec. At Quebee the body \of Richard Maybury shockingly disfigured, was found Wednesday night under the ruins caused by the recent landslide, The remains will be in- terred today with military honors. The num- ber of bodies recovered to date is 44, and one. that of young Pemberton, is stilt buried under the debris. The fourteen wounded victims are in a fair way for recovery. ‘The relict committee have expended about ali their funds aud will apply to the federal gov- ernment for assistance. —————see Father, Mother and Child Burned. At Chicago Wednesday night ‘the little daughter of Mrs. Henry Tennes overturned the lamp and her clothes caught fire. The mother, seeing the danger the child was in, tore the blazing clothing from her and threw them to one side, As she did so the fire from the burn- ing oil caught ber own dress, Enveloped in flame she ran frantically down stairs. At the second landing Mrs. Tennes fell helpless, her clothing burned from her body and her flesh being literally roasted. A moment later her husband appeared, also fearfully burned, but still able to walk, Ho aided in carry- | ing his wife toa bed. Then his strength gave out and he fell to the floor unconscious. Doctors pronounce Mrs, Teunes’ condition hopeless. ‘The injuries.of Mr. Tennes and his daughter are much less serious, although Mr. Tennes will be badly distigured by the burns about his head, A eee Shot by His Traveling Companion. The inquest on the body of Samuel E. Rei- ninger, found near the Pan Handle railroad bridge, was held at King Kensington, Ii, the returning a verdict that he met his th by gunshot wounds and bruises received from weapons in the hands of Wm. Ernest Purdy, who was bis i Bese ion, and the latter was held to the out bail. ~ eee —_____ A Big Mining Transaction.

THE EVENING STAR ts a PAPER OF TO-DAY, not of YESTERDAY nor of LAST WERK, It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPEES. 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 MORB THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY OTHER WASHINGTON PAPER. It is therefore able to print each day a full report of every transaction oi public ine terest occurring in the District up te the very hour of going to press. —e: 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 iu the way of news from Europe, Asia, and Africa for the morning papers. —:0: — Equally does THE STAR lead all its contemporaries in the publication of the NEWS OF 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 AUantic and Pa- cific Oceanus. —0:— @ NOTE THE RESULT: <3 THE STAR HAS MORE THAN THREE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR | SUBSCRIBERS and MORE THAN | BIVE TIMES AS MANY REGULAR READERS AS ANY OTHER DAILY PAPER IN WASHINGTON. It is de- livered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THE tAY 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 koow it, in short, tobe THE PEOPLE'S PAPER, and nothing else. As au ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSO- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL, It is in fact worth more as a means of reach- 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, —0o: — In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one significant fact: THE STAK does not rely upon empty boasts to impress 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 leust able to stand. —:9: — & The esteem in which THE STAR is held by the reading and edvertising public is conclusively shown by the fig- ures given below. In the first six months of each of the five years named the average daily cir- culation of the paper was: “ 1886... -24,382 25,702 .27,063 30,241 Equally significant is the showing fn regard to the advertising patronage of the paper, which is the surest indication of its acknowledged value as a medium of publicity. Thenumber of NEW AD- VERTISEMENTS printed in the col- umns of The Star during the first six months of the years named was as fole
