4 CONSTABLE AND sUNDRY CREDITORS IS HOT
 PURSUIT.

The firm of Caldwell S Levalley, who
 have been running an indepeadrnt stage
 line between Prescott and PhcniX, that is
 to say, q line without mail contract. with
 lhe expectation of receiving the contract
 when mail should be put on, were disap-
 pointed, Messes. Kerens and Griffin having
 under bld them, and in the meantime hay
 ing run largely in debt to station-kccpers,
 merchants, mechanics, etc, found them selves near the close of their career, when the mail was tobe put on by the contractors, on the first of October, unable to liquidate, and. as appears by their action they con- ciuded to il@c from the wrath to come ~ and strike out with such property as they coald easily move, and try to get beyond the jurisdiction of Arizona officials before their absence was observed. They accord ingiy announced that they had reduced their line from semi-weckly to weekly, this was to keep people from wondering
 why they were not making their regular trips twice a week, and on leaving Giilett last Saturday they refused to bring the reg ular shipment of bullion, saying their coach was disabled, and that it would be fixed al Prescott, 50 that it could bring the bnllion next trip.
 Instead of making the ;rip to Prescott. however, they came as far as their own station on the Agua Fria, and there getherc,9 lp their loose stock, some twenty horses. put Levallcy's family in the coach and with l Mexican employe 10 drive the loose stock 1 started for New Mexico, via. Little Colorado. |
 l. was some days before it became known 1 hat they were gone and they were well on | their way across the Mogollons before | from Gillett, accompanied by | Tom. Cusack a man from Sessions ranch. | md perhaps others, started ia pursuit. The | we learn was armed with aa at | achment for the property but had no war ant for their arrest. So that il he over akes them and they can satisfy the de- hands he has against them they will prob bly be allowed to go on with whatever else hey may have.
 So far as we can hear of their indebtedness { IS as follows: James Patterson, between our and fivehundred dollars, L. Bashford X Q. about the same, Tom Cusack, nearly the ame, HOwey & Patterson two or thre hun Ired, Campbell X Parker, nearly the same, '"SsiOns at Agua FIia, over three hundred, tc. In addition 10 these amounts there are cveral smaller bills here in Prescott. and hey are said to owe nearly everybody at illicit. PhenIX has not vet been heard rom but it is presumed they owe consider bic there.

\ SHoi;T LESSON IN GEAMMaR.-''I have saw, sounds very badly, even to the school boz or girl who has the least smathcrinr of hngiiSh Grammar, and yet we sometimes near IL on tine streets among childeren who ought to know better. Always use the partcipie seen instead see" or s'saw'' after such words as hare, has, ras, Je. been. etc
 You might just as well say q have sec or have go" or have went" as to say "I have saw" We are now speaking to those Who are just forming habits of speech, and Who, If they start out wrong, may find if difficult to change when they grow older. Another prevalent error that should he avoided Is the use of the verb ..to learn 10 ie1r8, means to find ont. so as to under- Stah@ matter. Ton cannot, therefore. 'learn parson anything Instead of ssv- Ing "i icarped him to re ld, or to work or to Go anything else. Ton should say "I taught hin," etc. And instead of .I will learn hlm better" say II will teach hi,n better" If you learn boy, you simply ma out something about him: but if von teach hlm, you make him know sometbino
 ihlS lesson doesn't cost anythino and may De ot service to some of our yopno readers whom we sometimes hear makin9 oHd use ot the Kings English.

The proposition of Hon. A. E. Davis to leave the matter of running single candi- date m opposition to Hon. II. s. Stevens. to an informal election at Phenix, Prescott and Mineral Park, the homes of Woolsey. Campbell and Davis, is one of more impor- tanee than many are inclined to attach to it.
 Davis IS so confident of his strength, over the other two, that he has written his friends to urge the proposition, and is willing to pledge himself, in case one of the others should succeed in receiving more votes tLan he, to pitch in and do his level best to elect i.lm, requiring the others, of course to do the same for him is case of lis success.
 The time IS growing short and whatever IS done ID the matter should be done at once. The undersigned, a, Prescott. are au- tlnriZcd to arrange the details on the part ot Davis, with the other candidates or their representatives.
