The Great Newspaper OF the Great
West

| In inviting attention to the merits of the
Kansas City Star it seems proper to point to
few facts demonstrating its very great success
as a newspaper. The Star is the largest Gus
toner of the Kansas City post Office. Last
year it paid Uncle Sam over $3.50 for post
age.
| Though it receives daily the full news re-
ports of the Associated Press-the greatest
newsgatheing organization in the world
| it receives in addition such an abundance of
of both the Western Union and Postal tele-
graph companies in Kansas City.
1t consumes $4,000, 900 pounds of white pa
per month.
1t is printed upon FIVE Quadruple Perfect
ing Presses-the largest equipment of news
paper printing machinery in the United States
vast of Chicago.
Such facts as these indicate large revenue
and vast expenditures.
To print in Kansas City-the seventeenth
city in size in the United States newspaper
which is not outranked by any other, any
where, as is the fact in this case of the Star
is an achievement that is only possible when
the friendship and appreciation of the reading
public is attracted and mainland upon great
scale. A multitude of readers, making the
advertising space valuable to merchants and
manufacturers and thereby producing the
large revenues necessary for the expense of
publishing such paper, can be obtained only
by years of persistent endeavor to improve and
and develop the publication to the utmost
limit of its possibilities.
That, in brief, has been the history of The
Kansas City Star. From the day it earned
its first profits it has steadily turned back its
revenues into improving its qualities and scope
This policy, consistently adhered to for twen-
ty-two years, has brought its reward. The
Kansas City Star is now unquestionably the
Great Newspaper of the Great West.
1t has larger circulation, in proportion to
the population of the city in which it is print
ed, than any other newspaper. Its daily cir
culation is above 1867 900. 1t was the first
newspaper to.give its readers full weeks is
sue, delivered by carrier, seven days for 10
cents. 1t was the first to establish weekly
edition for IS cents year. Thr Weekly Star
contains the concentrated news of the world
and good reading'for the whole fanily-has
over zz5, 1000 paid in advance subscribers.
The Stars news gathering facilities are un-
excelled and the news Is untainted by preju-
dice OF partisanism. Its market reports are
complete, intelligent and accurate. Its mis-
cellaneous reading matter is chosen with ut
most care
Its illustrations add value to its news and
literature.
Its editorial policy is for advancement and
progress.
1t advertisers are the best and most trust
worthy merchants and manufacturers, with :
range of products meeting every need.

Million Dollars.

INCENDIARY Is SUSPECTED

Four separate fires in Portland Tues
day mocked at the efforts of the toiling
fremen and destroyed property to the
value of nearly $500, 900.
1t seems reasonably certain that at
best two, and possibly all, of the con-
fiagrations, were of incendiary origin.
The first alarm was turned in at 80
o'clock. The residence OF William
Faber, at tne corner of Market and
Eleventh streets, was in flames, and be-
fore the fireman could extinguish the
flames, the building was completely
gutted.
Before the department had left the
smodering embers OF this handsome
home, an alarm was sounded for fierce
confagation in Lower Albina, at the
corner of Mississippi avenue and Russell
street The fire sent property valued
at $25, 900 whifling skywards in smoke.
at 30 O'Clock in the morning the
fire-fighters wealied with night OF
facing seething flames and strangling
smoke, were called to combat the
hercest conhagration of them all, a fire
at the Victoria dock, where the fierce
heat on one side and the hurrying river
On the other prevented the tiremeT from
occupying any vantage ground from
which they could reach their enemy
And here also the fire died only when
the swirlng flame could find 70 further
thing on which to prey. The loss is
estimated at 1919, 900.
In the evening at 9 20 O'Clock the last
alarm of the eventful day was sound I'd .
A messenger boy passing the candy
factory of Canning Il Wallace saw a
tiny tongue OF flame flicker fro n a win
dow on the second floor. He ran to the
police station near by and shouted,
"Fire" The engines were soon on the
spot. On either hand OF the candy
factory were Warehouses filled with
paint and oils, brooms and rattan ware
The flames were held in check by tht
thick walls The loss was about $40 900

Washington, March 5.-Senator Fu-

Mitchell and there took the oath. He

Salt Lake, March "A buffalo hunt
rare occurrence even in the West
where formerly they roamed the plains,
in herds many thousand stroi g-took
place today on Antelope Island, in the
Great Salt Lake, 80 miles from this city.
The hunters were a party OF Salt Lakels
and their game was three magnificent
bulls among a private herd of buffalo
on the island. These animals had be-
come so vicious that their presence WAS
a constant menace, not only to human
life but also to the herds of cattle graz.
ing on the island.
The hunt was an exciting affair and
several of the party had narrow escapes
from death. Several times, the animals,
maddened by the singing bullets, turn
el uopn their pursuers, who escaped
only by urging their mounts to the ut
most sreed. The buffalo fought with all
the traditional courage and fierceness o.
their race and not until their bodies
were Utterly rddled with bullets did
they give up the struggle.
