[SIn Francisco Chronlcle.l
On one of the delightful days last
week q young lady we'll known in the
exclusive first circles of San Francisco
society for unrivalled personal charms
and elegance of accomplishments, was
driven around to make a congratulatory
call upon married lady who was hap>
pily convalescent from that occasional
sacred event in the lives OF welded
ladies, which, far from beinga sickness,
is the perfect elimination Of their
health. She was shown into the parlor
and for the few minutes required to
arrange for her reception in the room
where mother and child were doing as
well as could be expected, was left with
no other to entertain her than the only
son and heir to the house, Master
Charles, Thea in his fourth year. But
Charles was equal to the situation, and
promises to grow up into an ornament
of society that will never be abashed by
beauty, however brilliant, into the
painful negative of mo conversation"
After some unessental preliminary re-
marks, Master Charles approached
nearer the visitor and, lowering his
tone into the confidential, asked:
Miss -, 90 dot baby"
The young lady gave one swift glance
around to assure herself that there
was no other nearer to this pertinent
question and replied;
mo Charlie, dear, / have not.

Newspaper Dead Beats.

In his oration before the Arkansas Press Convention of Fort Smith, Col J. R. Pettigrew, of the Fayetteville Sentinel, referred to the amount of gra- tuitous labor which the press is expected to do, and m a manner which shows that he has had some experience of the impudent demands of classes of people who like to use, but are unwilling 10 support newspaper. He truly says:
 "Never in the whole history of busi- ness or commercial relations have the people demanded of any avocation so much graiuitons labor us of the press, and in no other has so much been con ceded, and may add, in no other would tho demand be granted without the clai- mant being branded as sponge or 'dead-beat Ii. has got to be considered a part of the duty of every man who in vests his money, his labor and his brain in newspaper to exert them in building up 0fCly VtuCi uuoiHCoo III tHo COilliIlu- nity, whether that building up be recip- rocal or not This is too wide field for me to enter into details I only re fer to the popular custom of demand ing free publication for every extended marriage notice that the confectionery writer can manufacture, for every obit- uary notice that the talented member of the family is expected to perpetrale, and other private matters of no general con cern. At the general conclusion of every society meeting it is pompously resolved that the procee dings be published in the town paper, without that other necessary resolve that they be published at the pub fishers expense, and this might be con tinued indefinitely. Suppose that we should resolve that we would have dozen baskets of champage can see now the look of indignation that would mount the cheek of the dealer if we offered to pay for it in copy of the re- solutions. Yet that is precisely the kind of compensation the enlightened populations of our towns deal out to the publishers of newspapers. In that l can say their liberality is unbounGed."
