A Shining Star. The strides which the Toronto Daily Star is making are the feature of news- paperdom • in Canada. Within a few weeks it has been put in the front rank of oily dailies, It has out away from the Torontotradition about afternoon papers arid has enlarged its size and the aoope of its news so that it is now on an even keel with its morning con- temporaries. Its splendid special cable servioe is a costly feature of the paper's improve- ment. In London, New York, Chicago, Boston and Washingtoi it has he own correspondents, as well as in the chief 'cities of the Dominion.. In war neWs The Star has forestalled its competitors on many important oc- casions. 114 11 15. correspondence from the Cana- dian contingent in South Afrioa inoludes 2010 SOille of the most interesting 'letters thet come to tell the people of thie minion of the trials and the gallantry of our soldiers. Seeing that the markets and ex- changes in the world's great trading centers are all closed before the atter- noon papers are printed, it has been otte of the unaccountable things that the morning papers should ever have been looked for and waited upon for their Commereial and inancial pages.. The Toronto Star takes full advantage of the time of its publication at 4 (Voice* in the afternoon to present full and reliable reports from all the trad„ ing centers, as well as the .local ex- ohanges. These reports are published fifteen hours Awl of the morning papers. ' • ' • It has lately engaged one of the best drawing cards in the newspaper busi- ness in the'person of Sam Hunter, the tartoonist, who went over this week to The Star, whose front page hereafter his humor will go to enliven. .Another addition to The Star's staff of more than passing interest is the engagenaent of Mr. Joe Clark, “Mack" of Saturday Night, The Star's management are going the way to make the paper the most readable in Canada.

There seems to be a nabiapprehension respeoting the medal now in course of distribution to those of the militia and She regular forces who served during the Fenian raids and in the Red river expedition. Because tio many of the 1860 men are entitled to receive it, and because the statements in the press have been rather misleading, most peo, ple believe it to be the 1806 medal. It is a "General Service niedal" for Can- ada, and the several oecasions for which 15 1. now bestowed are simply indicated by olaps, viz., "Fenian Raid, 1866" ; "Fenian Raid, 1870' ; ''Red River 1870" .
