Tho Origin of a Slang Term Very Much in
Vogue In Great Britain.
This is slang term, meaning to de-
fraud. 1t has grown into considerable
popularity in England, in this sense,
and is being picked up in the United
States. 1t is well known to readers of
history that England was alive, in the
reign of Elizabeth, with the spirit of
adventure and discovery. The finding
of America was a new wonder to be
goSsiped about. There were wars and
expeditions on every side, and every
pluc:;y young Englishman wished to
sail away to find new inheritance
with his ship, or conquer an old one
with his sword. A great many offered
their services to foreign powers. One
of these soldiers of fortune, Sir Robert
Shirley, was employed by the Grand
Seigneur and King of Persia and sent
on various missions, the most important
being a commercial embassy to Eng
land. By this time King James was on
the throne, and anxious to encourage the
trade with Turkey and the East, which
Elizabeth's advisers had begun in a
small way about twenty-five years be-
fore. This shrewd Sir Robert sent over
a Turkish chiaus, or envoy, in advance
of his own coming, to get the good
will of the London merchants in the
Turkish and Persian trade. The chiaus
exerted himself so successfully that he
pocketed some four thousand pounds
of their money "a large sum for that
time), and ran away with it, leaving
his master to stand the loss and laugh
against him as best he could; for the
tavern wits were as much delighted to
get hold of bit of new slang,
and they adopted "chiaused" (now
''cboused" in the sense of "defrauded. =
johnson and,Shirley mention ''chouse''
as slang, and in Lander, two hundred
years later, it is put down as good

STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION.

Invitations have been issued by Mr.. ].
R. Belts, the secretary of the Press
Association, to the meeting which is to be
held at Helena on the 9Th, 9TH and Sth of
May.
These meetings are always delightful,
and we mention especially the two last
meetings, one held at Hot Springs in 1883,
and the other held last year at Eureka
Springs, which were attended by several
of the ladies of our paper, and all that
courtesy could demand, and that the heart
of man could imagine was done for the
pleasure of the guests by the two cities
just mentioned. We are assured, therefore,
of cordial reception by the Press of
Helena, as the hospitality Of the city is a
well-known fact, and some of the most
cultivated people of the State reside there.
AS the Lads JOURNAL will be repre-
sented, the ladies will doubtless be inter
ested in the programme, which we give.
