NEW YORK, 1888.

M ore people have read The SUN during the
NA 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 following rea.
sons, among others;
Because Its news columns present in attrac.
tive form and with the greatest possible accn-
raey whatever has interest for manklndi the
events, the deeds and misdeeds, the wisdom,
the philosophy, the notable folly, the solid
sense, the improving nonsense-all the news
of the busiest world at present revolving in
space.
Because people have learned that in its re.
marks concerning persons and affairs The
Sun makes practice of telling them the exact
truth to the best of its ability three hundred
and sixty five days in the year, before election
as we'll as after, about the whales as well q
about the small fish, in the face of dissent as
plainly and fearlessly as when supported by
general approval. The Sun has absolutely no
purpose to serve, save the information of is
readers and the furtherance of the common
good
Because it is everybody's newspaper No
man is 80 humble that The Sun is Indifferent
to his welfare and his rights. No man is 10
rich that it can allow injustice to be done him.
No man, no association of men, is powerful
ton of its principles of right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for dozen
years, without intermission and sometimes nj.
most alone among newspapers, the fight that
has resulted in the recent overwhelming popu-
lar verdict against Robesonism and for honest
government. No matter what party is in pow
er, The Sun stands and will continue to stand
like rock for the interests of the people
against the ambition of bosses. the encroach
nients of monopolists, and the dishonest
schemes of public robbers.
ALI 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 its Christianity is nndiluted with
cant. Another holds that 1t ia the best Repuh-
ican newspaper printed, becauseit has already
whipped half of the rascaIs out of that party +,
and is proceeding against the other half with
undiminished vigor. A third believe it to bv
the best magazine Of general literature in ex-
istence, because its renders miss nothing
worthy of notice that is current in the world
of thought. SO every friend of The Sun dis
covers one of its many sldes that appeals with
particular force to his individual liking
If you already know The Sun, You will oly-
serve that in 1893 it ia little better than ever
before Ii you do not already know The Sun.
you win find it to be mirror of all human ac
tivity, storehouse of the choicest products
Of COMMON sense and imagination; a malnstay
for the canse of henest governments a sentnc |
for genuine JeifersOnian Democracy. scOurgc
for wickedness of every species, and an uncunI-
monty good investment for the coming ear.

Not since the days of PinafOre has public
interest in any entertainment run so high as
in the coming presentation of Pepita. Nor
will the public expectation be in any wise
disappointed. The preparation and drill has
been thorough and complete. The leading
parts are admirably taken. 1t would be in
vidious to mention names, but glance at the
cast Of characters will show the high order of
talen. of which it is composed. The chorus
under the admirable instruction of Mr.. Fred
Ii. Rowse, has reached q high degree of ex-
cellence. Though the leading features have
been retained, new interest has been added
to the opera by the introduction of new music
and new selections, so that those who have
seen it will only desire the more to see it
again. To the old familiar songs which have
won and long held our hearts, has been added
the sparkling music of the operas, Iolanthe,
Esmeralda, Trial by Jury, &C. To listen to
these as sung by trained chorus of full fifty
voices is something to stir the blood and
warm the hearts of the old as we'll as young.
Nor should we omit reference to the rich and
elegant costumes which have been brought
from Boston for the occasion. We predict
for the company the brilliant success which
their faithful and painstaking effort deserves.
