From the Syracuse Herald
One of the most successful newSpa perS
in the United States is The Washington
Star, which, it goes without saying, is
also an evening paper. Just the other day
The Star took possession of it's new build
ing on Pennsylvania avenue and invited all
the newspaper men of the capital to the
''houSe-warming. The guests were as
charmed with the interior as they had been
previously impressed with its outward mag
nificence The building stands on cor
ned and towers ten stories in the air The
two fronts are of marble and the architec-
ture is most artistic. Inside the same de-
gree of elegance prevails, and every de-
partment of the paper is provided not only
with every modern convenience, but even
with luXuries. Carpets, tapestries statues,
etc, part of the furnishings, and lava
tories, bath rooms and dressing rooms are
provided for the entire staff The cost Of
the structure is not given. but il must have
been away up in the hundreds of thou
sands.
This magnificent newspaper home is the
triumph of an independent journal conscien-
ticusly run on business principles. The
Star was founded in 1852. and was a small,
four-page sheet, printed on a hand press

The Star Of that time and The Star of to-

its phenomenal success is in large degree
attributable to his able management. The

graduates Mr. Noyes upon their deserved

especially for its use. 1t is ore of the
finest and most complete newspaper offices

THE NEW STAR BUILDING
COMMENTS ON THE STRUCTURE By
THE NEWSPAPERS.


From the Washington Capital.
The glistening pile of marble at the cor
ner of Pennsylvania avenue and 11th street
Is monument to the untiring industry,
intelligence and business capacity Of the
editors and owners of The Evening Star.
And they have well earned this monument,
magnificent as it is. Those who have mar
veled at its splendor, from the PavanozZa
marble of the business office the first
on the tenth, will tell you that 1 use no
eAaggeration of speech when l say that
this building is the most complete as well
as the most elaborate newspaper home in
the world today. There are larger ones.
but none better. This glorious triumph of
Crosby S. Noyes and s. H. Kaufman,
that has come to them in the later years
of their lives, has not been without untir-
ing effort, not without many sacrifices in
the earlier days of the enterprise. and not
without full realization of the duty they
owed the people they sought to serve.

IS TT RIGHT For an Editor to Recommend Patent Medicines?

From the News, Brevard, NC.
 It may be question whether the editor of newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which flood the market, yet as Preventa- tive of suffering we feel it duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Reme- dy. We have known and used this medicine in our family for twenty years and have always found it reli- able. In many cases dose of this remedy would save hours of suffer ing while a physician is awaited. We do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for cure but we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand and administered at the inception of an attack much suffering might be avoided and in very many cases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty years. For sale by F. J. Wattron, druggist.

 Mrs. Reed, whose letters from abroad were such pleasant reading in the Arizona Republican, has re- turned, and writing from Cohasset, Mass, says of the day she left Troy, N. Y, for Boston: It was hot enough to put to shame any August day on the Colorado desert. Talk about hot weather; I do not think that we of Arizona have any cause to find fault with our climate. We came through Boston where every thing seemed to be fairly sizzling with heat, and there was no relief whatever until we reached Cohasset at six o'clock. Even here a few minutes from the beach, we have days that fairly prostrated us; there is no life left in you and everything you touch seems to stick to you.

Heretofore the Santa Fe Pacific

Heretofore the Santa Fe Pacific Railroad has held in force to points in Arizona the transcontinental min imum freight rate. That is, no package, however small, would be handled for less than about $2. This gives all the small business to the express companies. The Santa Fe has now recinded this rule and made p cents minimum to all points along it's lines in Arizona, and New Mexico. The effect will be to allow shippers to send by freight a great many small packages of fruit, vegetables and other mer- chandise at much less cost of trans portation than before. It will no doubt greatly increase business along the line from Los Angeles east.-Coconino Sun.
