THE NIGHT HAWKS
OF A GREAT CITY,
AS SEEN
BY THE REPORTERS OF “THE TORONTO NEWS.”
This series of sketches of the night side of life was commenced in The Toronto Daily News on Monday, May 19th, concluding on June 7th. They are but a sample of the interesting specialties which appear daily in The News, which is certainly the most readable and spicy newspaper published in Canada. Every Saturday, Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage’s sermon of the Sunday before, Clara Belle’s New York letter, a cartoon by Mr. S. Hunter, and two columns of dramatic gossip, including many glimpses of life in the Green Room, are regularly given, besides an endless variety of humorous sketches, and a complete compendium of the news of the day. The News has no Canadian rival as a first-class family newspaper, one which will be read through every day by every member of the family.
