The deal in Norcross seems to be
giving some of the Bay papers a
great deal of trouble. Their prin-
cipal mission in life appears to be
to ascertain who is making the deal.
Failing to discover the source from
whence the coin is coming, they as
sumo that the deal is bogus and
not made on developments. The
question of ascertaining whether
or not there is an ore body does
not seem to have formed any Part
of the Journalistic prog nme.
What they want more than any
thing is the men who are buying so
much stock. 1t is said upon
pretty good authority that Virginia
City people, especially miners, are
purchasing a good deal, because
they believe there is actual merit
in the mine. Yesterday the stock
was very strong and there were
large transactions. The stock
touched 81.

ROUGH on BUTLER.

The following reminescence of
Butler is from the fantastic pen Of
Ruff. Schcemaker:
When General B. F. Butler was
a young man, two girls dwelling in
the same boarding house, we're sim
ultaneously in love him. Both la
dies were sitting in the parlor one
evening, and Ben was making yio-
lent love to one of them, much to
the chagrin of the other, who sud
denly founced to the piano and
sang "Rock of Ages" at the top Of
her voice, laying particular stress
on the line:
Simply to thy cross-eye cling"
The mean part of this is that
Ruff. was also counting the other
girl.

NH. DHYoUNe.

Since the death of Charles De
Young his brother H. NJ. DeYoung
has come into considerable promi-
nence and has received good share
Of newspaper abuse. Newspaper
abuse is about the best diet a news
paper can take to thrive well. The
Chronicle is the leading newspaper
of the Coast and this fact cannot be
wiped out. A correspondent Of the
Stockton Mail says:
"The Chronicle is a mint of
money to Mike DeYoung, who is
reaping the harvest that his brother
Charles sowed. Mike has no
brains. Imean as journalist. He
cannot write line, and his share in
the management of the Cronicle is
to order that the expenses be kept
down, and to draw profits. He has
a good. head for business, though,
and has made investments in real
estate that will turn him into mil
lionaire one of these days. He is
also building at an outlay of $780,
coca big place of cheap amusement
ON Eddy street. Already it is
popularity know as the Mikeleum,
though the name its owner has
picked out for it is the Afcazar.
The one drawback to Mr.. De
Young's perfect happiness is that
he may not get the credit of being
abe to run as good paper as his
brother did. Charles had not been
in his grave a week when his low
ing successor was asking his en-
ployes to tell him what the public |
were saying about the management
of the paper. Indeed he would i
stop newspaper men on the street |
and ask them if they didn't think
the Chronicle was as good or even
better under his direction as it was
when Charles was alive. Mike is
destined to be one of the most |
prominent men of this city if God
spares him. His wife is a woman
of education and intelligence, who
is exceedingly ambitious socially,
and she has inspired Mike also
with aspirations for drawing-room
greatness"

A long yellow ice-cart, heavily laden, slid
the other day into gutter in Chambers
street, near west Broadway. The rear wheel
stuck firmly against the curb. The driver
dashed his horses and swung them around,
but to no purpose. Ingenious philanthropists
offered all kinds Of suggestions, patted the
trembling, sweating horses, and some put
their shoulders to the side OF the truck, but
without avail The cff rear wheel would
not turn. A barefooted little colored boy
watched tho proceedings with q child like
look Of sympathy for the overstrained ami
mails He suddenly ran down Chambers
street and returned painting, carrying In bis
arms lot of banana peels
"Say, boss" he called to tho driver, "rll
make yer wheel turn with these ere, IL yer'n
let me put EN- down.
Gan right, sonny" said the driver
The little darby sprang under the wheels,
and carefully laid down the skins. He pressed
some close to the curb, where the W eel was
jammed Then he spgang back and shouted,
Nov, boss: pull away"
The crowd laughed; the driver pulled tau
his lines and gave his horses q lash. The ami.
mails sprang forward, the wheel glided along
the layer Of banana peels, and the heavy
wagon rolled out Of the gutter. The on
lockers cheered a. il drove away.
''Oh," said the little darby, I've seen POP
move barrels and boxes with oil, and POP
tole me a little oil makes hebby dings go
round seen hebby men fall on banana
peel, and guessed dey move dat wheel My
name, boss, am Abraham Lincoln George

A French SURGEON.

In France surgeons like to manufact.
ure little p~leasantries to show the un.
certanties of medicine, and the doctors
delight in doing the same thing fol-
surgery. The doctors are now telling
the following: The victim of an ex-
plosion was pierced through and
through by an iron drill. The surgeon
felt his pulse. "You are wounded, sir,"
said he; you have fever" I know I'm
wounded" said the patient; I've
three feet of iron in my stomcch." do
these accidents often happen in your
family?" Not very often" "Have
you ever had such q trouble before ?"
"First time I ever had it." TT must
embarrass you to lie upon your back"
Eyes, sir" "And upon your stomach"
every much So" "You would be easier
On your SIDE" eyes, slightly" every
well. You have a drill through your
body; two courses are open to you
leave the drill where it is and die of in
fammation or extract it and bleed to
death. Science will do it's best, but you
must choose for yourself and take the
responsibility as to your life; all our
patients do that"

der that some mothers weep when
their daughters are born, and CRY: "Oh,
that it had been a son!!" There are
some sad experiences that would lead a
mother to pray that every one of her
children be men.
Mary A. Livermore.-I reluctantly
accepted the invitation to visit q very
wealthy lady in a city where I had
been lecturing on the subject of "What
Shall We Do with Our Girls" As she
closed the doors of her grand house be-
hind her she said: "My daughters are
q source of no uneasiness to me, but
what in heavens name shall we do with
our boys?" There on the bed, with
his overcoat and boots on, lay her son,
q handsome young man, stupid drunk.
A few months later she wrote me that
she had gone to his room and turned
back the overs of his bed to find him
with his throat so terribly cut that he
had almost decapitated himself, while a
note lying on his table explained that,
unable to break of his depraved appe-
tite for strong drisk, he had put an end
to himself.

When you come to study the matter
you will find Just as much difference
between the Southern negro's dog and
the white mans dog as there is between
the canine owned by an Indian and one
which comes when . Senator snaps his
fingers.
The Southern colored man who is
too poor to have a mule, OK, pig, fowls,
doors, windows, or fireplace in his
cabin, has . dog-sometimes four or
five. When he comes to town at least
one follows him. When you pass his
home the whole family of CANNES bark
at you from q distance, or silently gaze
at you from the doorstep.
The negro's dog is . SLOUGH. He is
built on wrong principles to begin with.

A Bad Indictment.

A highly respected citizen was ar
raigned before court for shooting and
killing a friend. The evidence was di-
rect, and after exhaustive arguments
had been made the Judge said:
1T is clearly proved that you are
guilty as charged by the Indictment"
"But 1 protest my innocence" replied
the prisoner. "The Indictment reads
that I did shoot and kill the gentleman
with powder and q leaden bullet. This
is a mistake. I had no bullets at the
time, SO I loaded my gun with powder
and a horseshoe nail"
"That, indeed. alters the case" said
the Judge. or" im'lrtment said bull
