It is a matter of general .complaint, says
the Harrisburg Telegraph, that there h as of
lath grown up a class of dead-heads who, in
the name of professional service, claim free
admission to all places of amusement. Free
admission to all places of amusement grew
out of courtesies on the part.of managers to
dramatic afithors, critics, journalists and
reporter . As long as the system was, con
fined to these people, it was legitimat and
fair, but it baa grown far beyond them,
until tum . the people_ ho Claire them fans%
ark in noisitkin to ricitemrataiwnfession
sßy, and could not;-if they desireil,-writera
criticises or even" a notice of it theatrical
or'operatic performance. The consequence
is that the dead-head sYstem is hecoming a
bore to managers,':of places of amusement
and a disgrace to the press. The free ad
mission to places of amusement * the large
