Social Chatter.

evening was not financial success. and

tlemen who came here travelling on their
brains, have "Jonahed" everything but
themselves and have sunk the ship, while
they escape comfortable seat in the
whales stomach. IL is u great pity that so
worthy cause as the Mission should not
have received more encouragement.

fully supported young woman probably
Pittsburg has ever seen socially. Moreover,
Nature has been very kind 10 her also, so
between this and that, Miss Watson is moth
