Never Before Has Such a Terrific Scramble Taken Place at the Manhattan En- trance to the Brooklyn Bridge. You will never be able to appreciate just what happened at the Bridge entrance at “rush hour” last evening unless you were there or have braved the attack of a herd of buffaloes on the Western plains. It was close to 6 o'clock. The surge of crowding humanity was at its height. The very air seemed laden with forebodings that something terrible was soon to happen. Through the evening papers it had been announced that the entire tirst edition of the World Almanac and Encyclopedia for 1909 —100,000 copies—had been sold during the last week, when they were first placed on sale, It was true that the second edition was about to be distributed—but that is neither here nor there. Word was passed along that a few more copies might still be had at the Bridge news-stand. The news spread, and this informa. tion proved the bomb that fired the people’s minds. The rush began. Now, just imagine, if you can, a hundred thousand people rushing, falling, climbing, crawling, yelling and mauling in one great, wild effort to get those few remaining copies of the greatest Ready Reference Book ever set in type and printed, To be sure, the coveted volume comprised 880 crowded pages— 45,000 important facts and figures that every New Yorker should have close at hand every day of his lite—but even so, well—why try to explain? It's all over now. Quiet reigns, ‘The books were sold—25,000 more of them during the last six days than during the initial sale last year. And, furthermore, the second edition is now ready and copies may be had at any news-stand, Now, in explanation, let it be added that this was merely the dream of one of the World Almanac’s enthusiastic editors, But some say there is a lot of truth in dreams. So take warn. ing and get YOUR copy of the World Almanac and Encyclopedia for 1909 this very day and take it home with you to-night rejoicing, It will cost but 25 cents at news-stands (30 cents west of Buffalo and Pittsburg), or 35 cents by mail.
