THE SUN.
NEW YORK, $50

MORE people have read The Sun dur
Itl ing the year just now passing than
ever before since it was first printed. No
other newspaper published on this side of
the earth has been bought and read in any
year by so many men and women.
We are credibly informed that people
buy, read and like The SUN for the follow
ing reasons, among others:
Because Its news columns present In at
tractive form and with the greatest possi-
BILE accuracy whatever has interest for
humankind; the events, the deeds and
misdeeds, the wisdom, the philosophy, the
notable folly, the solid sense, the improv-
ing nonsense-all the news Of the busiest
world ut present revolving in space.
Because people have learned that in its
remarks concering persons and affairs The
BUN makes practice OF telling them the
exact truth to the best of its ability three
hundred and sixty-tive days in the year,
before election as well as after, about the
whales rs well as the small fish, in the face
of dissent as plainly and learlessly as when
supported by general approval. The SUN
has absolutely no purposes to serve, save
the information of its readers and the fur
therance of the common good
Because it ia everybody's newspaper.
No man is so humble that The SUN is in
different to his welfare and his rights. No
man is so rich that it can allow injustice
to be done HIM. No man, no ASSOCIATION
of men, is powerful enough to be exempt
from the strict application OF its principles.
of right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for
dozen years, without intermlssion and
sometimes almost alone among newspa-
pers, the fight that has resulted in the re-
cent overwhelming popular verdict against
Robesonism and for honest government.
No matter what party is III power, The
SUN stands and will continue TO stand like
a rock for the interests of the people
against the ambition of bosses, the en-
croachments OF monopolsts, and the dis
honest schemes OF public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily
by our friends. One man holds that The
sun is the best religious newspaper ever
published, BECAUSE it's Christianity IS un-
diluted with cant. Another holds that it
is the best Republican newspaper printed,
because it has already whipped halt ofthe
rascsls out OF that party, and is proceed
ing against the other half with undimlh-
is6ed vIgor. A third believes it to be the
best magazine of general literature III eX-
lstence, because lis readers miss nothing
worthy Of notice that is current in the
world of thought. So every friend OF IHE
SUN discovers one of its many sides that
appeals with particular force to his indi-
vidual liking.
If you already know The Sun YOU Will
observe that In 1883 il is little better
than ever before Ii you do not already

There appears to be almost no cad
to the novelties being perfected fol-
the Oriole festivities in Baltimore in
September. 1t will truly be as
termed, Summer Nights Carnival,
and certainly nothing like it was ever
before attempted in any city of the
continent. There will be electricity
in all its forms, are lights and incan-
descent lights, focus lights and fam
beaux, torches in various colors, Greek
fire, calcium and gas, until night will
be turned into day. The pyrotechnic
features will be on a scale of great
extent and variety, some of the set
pieces promising to be marvel QUE in
effect. The whole city will be lighted
as never before. The different mon
uments with which the metropolis
abounds will be girdled by electric
bands, while the lofty and majestic
dome of the City Hall will be fairly
ablaze. Every avenue leading to
novelty in illumination is eagerly
sought after, and old Baltimore will
indeed show herself this year. The
Mystic Pageant on the third night
will beyond all comparison excel
anything Of the description ever at
tempted not alone in this country but
in any country. Other cities are
content with from eighteen to twenty
two floats, the latter number being
the greatest ever embraced within
one pageant in any city. Baltimore
almost doubles this, as her pageant on
the night of the 18th of September
will include no less than forty floats
or tableau cars, larger, more impos-
ing and grander in every way, than
ever before shown. Ordinarily the
number Of chai acters introduced in
pageant is less than one hundred.
In the Baltimore pageant there will
be two hundred and thirty characters
upon the floats, every costume en-
tirely new and imported from Paris
direct. 1t will require thirteen hun
dred men, two hundred and forty
horses, over fifteen thousand gas Jets,
eight bands OF music, and other &C.
cessories in like magnificent proper.

sary to place the pageant upon the
streets ofBaltimore will exceed thirty
