The Star Looks Back Over 90 Years of Growth With the Ma

laboring classes who were employed on
the Washington City Canal and in i'm
proving Pennsylvania avenue, 1t was
used temporarily as q hospital.
Mr.. Stone needed only portion Of the
building for his own business and before
The Evening Star moved there 1t had
been the home of two printing offices.
For sometime Mrs. Richardson used the
upper rooms and the rear building as a
boarding house. Several Senators and
Representatives made their headquarters
there when Congress was in session.
when The Evening Star became q
tenant Of the building" we are told,
there was music store on the corner.
Next to this was an auction store, and
then came the entrance to the business
Office or counting room of The Evening
Star. Adjoining the business office on
the west was a variety theater.
In this old building The Evening Star
made rapid strides to the front. 1t
prospered as never before. The count
ing room was narrow, and on one side
was long counter that extended to the
rear where were located the Offices of
the owners and the business manager.
The pressroom was still farther back
and under the stage of the theater. On
the second floor OF the building, over
the business office and the music store
and auction room, were the Offices of the
editors and reporters. There was an
entrance from Eleventh street with
stairways leading to the second and
third floors, the latter Of which was
used for the composing room
I'm the composing room the stands
and cases were arranged near the
windows, that the compositors might
have plenty of light for their work, and
habitues of that part Of Pennsylvania
avenue from 1854 to 1881 will recall the
sight Of the little army of men who
were engaged daily in standing on end
the 1eaden messengers Of thought the
impression Of which they were to read
that day in the columns of their favorite
newspaper. The composing room was
heated by an old-time cylinder coal
stove that stood majestically in the
center Of the floor, and around it the men
gathered on winter mornings to warm
their fingers and steel sticks before
starting IN at their daily toll. In ex-
tremely cold weather a wood fire in the
old fireplace on the Eleventh street side
augmented the warmth of the room. This

Strong Partnership

no three men were better fitted to form
a partnership than Kaufman, Adams

been especially fond Of Mr.. Kaufman.
and feelinglv refers to him in his remi-
niscences written for The Star in 1902.
on the occasion Of it's 50th anniversary,
when he says:
"Of the four men-Alexander r. Shep-
herd, S. H. Kaufman, George w. Adams
and Clarence Baker, who joined me in
the purchase of The Star in 1867, only
one survives-the brilliant lovable Sam
Kaufman, with whom, during a close
association of SO years, I have never
had a word of discord and to whom the
success of The Star is largely due through
his intelligent work in all the depart
ments Of the paper"
George W. Adams was one OF WASH
ingtons early outstanding newspaper
correspondents at the time he joined the
group which bought The Star of which
company he was president at the time
OF his death in october, 1886.
All the stock in The Evening Star
Newspaper Co. is owned by the descend
ants of Crosby S. Noyes. S. H. Kauff-
mann and George w. Adams and those
directly connected with the management
OF the company. All of the original own
ers have descendants now connected with
The Star and others who are serving
with the countrys armed forces.
The editor of The Star is Theodore w.
Noyes, eldest son of Crosby S. Noyes, who
was associate editor with his father from
1887 to 1908, at which date, on his fathers
death, he became editor in chief, and has
served ever since in that capacity. Frank
B. Noyes, the only other surviving son of
Crosby S. Noyes. who for many years was
president of The Associated Press, is the
president of The Star Newspaper Co.
How The Star Has Grown
There has certainly been great progress
In journalism and newspaper work since
The Evening Star was first presented
to the public as four-page paper. the
type forms of which measured 10 by Is
inches. The size Of The Star today
draws quite comparison, as may be
judged by its readers, and although now

cumstances. Though until recently so
pages or more were Of ordinary occur
renee for the weekday issues, and, as a
matter of history, only q few years ago
Its record number of pages reached 80,
yet the Sunday issue consistently con-
tains well over 100 pages.
To set the type for this paper 43 lino-
type machines, 2 Ludlow and Mono
type machines are used. while 257 men
are employed in the composing room and
stereotype department. The total num-
ber OF employees today is close to l08s.

The Star will begin its e1st year Of
public service to the citlzenry of the Ma
tion's Capital when 1t celebrates its
birthday next wednesday. 1t was on the
18th day Of December, 1852, when the
first regular edition OF this paper was
issued.
Starting back when Washington was to
all intents and purposes a real City Of
Dust and Mud, The Star has Travelled
along with the people Of the District and
at all times has been found In the front
ranks fighting the city's battles and
strongly advocating all that seemed best
for its welfare, happiness and prosperity.
Its record is one Of the brightest spots in
Warrington history.
Through the years The Star, we be-
Neve, has lived up to this policy as ex-
pressed In its very first issue:
The Star is designed to supply
desideratum which has long existed
at the Metropolis Of the Nation. Free
from party trammels and sectarian
influences, it will preserve q strict
neutrality, and, whilst maintaining
fearless spirit OF independence will be
devoted, In an especial manner, to the
local interests Of the beautiful city
which bears the honored name Of
Washington, and to the welfare and
happiness of the large and growing
population within its borders. To de-
velop the resources Of the Metropolis
to increase and facilitate its mer-
camille operations-to foster and en-
courage its industrial pursuits-to
stimulate its business and trade-to
accelerate its progress in their march
to power and greatness-these shall
always remain objects Of the paper"
Founder of The Star
Capt. Joseph B. Tate, printer, started
The Star, or which was at first called
Daily Evening Star" He was a man
with aspirations, and one Of these was to
own and edit his own newspaper. He
had previously been associated with
three other men in the founding of the
American Telegraph, political organ
created to help Gen. Winfield Scott in
the presidential campaign of 1852, but
which soon went out of existence after
Cen Scott's defeat
Capt Tate was probably a good mixer,
but not altogether a good businessman.
But at least he was courageous in
founding The Star, since during this
period, particularly, papers were being
born here, seemingly, most every day,
and were dying here just as fast, and,
indeed. two previous attempts to found
a Star had resulted in failure-the
Columbian Star in 1852 and the Wash
ington Star in 1841. But, according to
an early account, Mr.. Tate knew his
Washington and he thought that
neutral paper, which would take an
interest in the development of the city,
keep it's skirts clean, refuse to be en-
tangled with political parties and report
the news fairly and decently. would
succeed" And it did!
But he was proprietor of the paper
for less than year, for in July, 1853,
w. D. Wallach and w. H. Hope bought

down by jolly old fellow who was driv-
ing into Washington with a load Of prod
uce for the Washington market. I very
promptly accepted his invitation to ride
in with him to the city. but afterward
concluded that had better walk For
it soon appeared that he only wanted to
get to Washington in season to place his
wagon in a good position for the market
next morning.
He stopped at every grog shop on the
road and there were a good many Of
them at that time on the old, much
travelled Baltimore and Washington

were ringing the old year out and the
new year in.
The market house then was a set Of
tumble-down sheds. moss covered, door,

and vagrants of all sorts. Back of it was

lation many times what it had in Its most
prosperous days in the olden times.
These were all weekly papers, and as
my pay averaged only about dollar a
column the income was not large. But
as was said in explanation OF George
Washington's remarkable feat Of throw
ing silver dollar across the Potomac
River where it was mile wide, dollar
went further in those days than now
MY first work on The Star was in 1853,
when I helped Wallach & Hope to es-
tablish a carrier system for the paper, a
task for which had some fitness from
experience as agent for the route delivery
of the Baltimore Sun in Washington.
There were times when Wallach
and myself and local reporter, named
Bill Tucker composed the whole editorial
and reportorial force upon The Star.
Bill Tucker was not very much Of .
reporter at best and he was subject to
epileptic fits, which came upon him at
the most inopportune moments. When
Wallach was away on his farm and Bill
Tucker had fits, used to have some
pretty busy days. My work commenced
at Z in the morning, when. with tin din
ner pail in hand, reached the old Gen.
tral Guard House, presided over by Capt.
James Birch, to report the proceedings
there The Central Guard House, with
its lookup and trial room, was a little
brick building In the Center Market
space.
From the guard house sped to The
Star ofiice, where made up The Spirit

In the morning I paid levy for my
lodging and ftp for cup of coffee and
some doughnuts at the market house.
In those days the old Spanish silver cur
rency was in use. and the small coins
were the levy worth 1917 cents, and the
'np,' 81 cents. When the coins were
worn beyond recognition they were
scratched with cross and then passed

1t was in 1867, while at this location,
that The Star was bought from its owner,
w. D. Wallach for 100000, which then
seemed to be an enormous amount of
money, even to Crosby S. Noyes, who
made the deal with Mr.. Wallach. Mr..

the cashiers cage, continuing as cashier
of the paper until his death five years
later. Until May /. 1853, The Star was
put in type In small office at Eighth
and D streets and another office on
Sixth street between Pennsylvania ave-
nue. and Missouri avenue. A few doors
avay from the latter address the paper
was printed by Buell. e. Blanchard,
rrinters But in May, 1858, the of1lces
of The Star were moved to the south
side of D street, between Twelfth and
Thirteenth. adjacent to where the fire
house formerly stood and where is now
the east end of the new Post Ofhce
Department Building.
Soon afterward. on September 30,
1854, 1t again moved, this time to
three-story- -and-attic building of brick
at the southwest corner of Pennsylvania
avenue and Eleventh street, where the
present massive granite structure OF the
former United States Post Office De-
partment now stands.
This early building was erected by
william J. Stone, an engraver. In the
late 2os. The property was known as

oficial plats of the city, and was in
cluded In the original grant Of the farm

The building was one of the largest
in the city at the time 1t was built.
Mr.. Stone carried on the business OF
engraving. and was engaged to con-
siderable extent in Government printing
and furnishing maps in addition to his
private work.
This old building. which was the home
OF The Evening Star until 1881. was
