According to a paper read before
the recent meeting of the Literary as
sociation. shorthand has tiourished
more o. less for 1000 years. Cicero's
famous writer, Trio, is known to have
had rivals in his own time, and C;csar's
feats in debating several letters stimuli
taneously while travelling still remain
unequaled. But shorthand, as nov
understood, is the product of the
present century. Lit is computed that
the literature relating to the subject
would fill no fewer than 1000 volumes,
and England alone has given birth to
BOZ different systems.

Devices OF thu Imp evident to Keep
from Getting Broke.

Two young crooks were arrested some
time ago on suspicion of committing
highway robbery by knocking down a
drunken man and rifing his pockets.
When they were searched before being
sent to their cells, the halves of two
one dollar bills were found in a pocket
of one Of the young men, and the natu-
raj inference was that the bills were
torn in getting them out of the drunk
ards pocket. After the young men
locked up, another Of the same
gang heard of the arrest and hunted
up one of the detectives. He learned
about the finding of the bills. ..Were
they like these?" he asked, taking the
other portions of the same bills from
his pocket.
@Yes," said the detective, land I
guess I want you, too"
Hold on" said the crook. Come
with me into this saloon and I'll prove
to you that this is dead straight"
!, The detective accommodated him
and reaching the bar the young man
said to the cashier: "What did I say
this afternoon when I tore them bills in
half and gave half to EddieY
'You said, as near as lean recollect,
Take them and keep them until you
meet me in the morning. There will be
one Sunday that we won't be broke"
"That's what I said" said the crook,
land there's lots of fellows to prove
it,"
There was no reason to doubt the
STORY, and the cashier said he had seen
done before nv fellows who we're

Statement From T. l.. Stiles.

To MY FRIENDs:-I am utterly at a loss to account for the manner in which 1 have been assalled from certain sources in Arizona, where I lived for nine years. While there no man ever brought a suit against me, or, so far as l ever heard, raised his voice to charge me with any dishonest act. On the 9th day of May, 1884, I became the assignee of the bankrupt firm of Hudson & O., without bond, because l was trusted to the extent that 1t was not deemed nec- essary. For three years stayed there, to my own personal loss, financially, ow- ing to the general collapse of all busi- ness. ard did the best l knew how to distribute the estate in my hands among the creditors of Hudson Gc O., paying to them over 5iJ0,O00 in cash. During that time not a man ever asked me to give a bond, or complained of my management of the affairs entrusted to me. In June 1887, removed to Tacoma, where 1 hoped to make a living, after talking about Tacoma, and my personal remov- al here with almost every English speak ing person in Tucson, for nearly a year.
 Now, not less than two years after ev- cry act of my conduct of business en- trusted to me has passed and was widely known, 1t seems that just as I am nomi- mated to a public office in Washington. some person has got me indicted for al legged embezzlement of Hudson & Co. 8 assetts. Conscious of no wrong-doing whatever, in the matter, never having received a dollar from the estate that was not my well-earned compensation for services rendered, l simply desire to say to you, not as party friends or enc mics, but as personal friends, that the respect and confidence you have placed in me has never been abused or betrayed by me, that 1 know what 1 say when I state that not all the courts in Arizona can fasten one dishonorable act upon me, though pliant grand jury may have found indictments. After the coming election is over l shall be upon the spot to meet whatever calumny may be ut tered. but in the mean time I am to be neither frightened or run off the track by any such stale and outrageous meth ods. To each end every allegation of wrong on my part l hereby, once for all, give the emphatic li

Something New and Good.

Col. Durr has again made a step for ward as a public benefactor. It had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucson were complaining about the beer sold in this city being bitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, famous old lady who has spent her life in studying the likes and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her. explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grandmother knew at once the remedy, and straight way sent carload of the celebrated Extra Pale Erlanger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the best judges in this city, and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is car ried with it. The Colonel asks that every family try few bottles of this beer, and feels confident that they will have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new beer with her reputation, which is good.
 The Colonel has been instructed to sell this beer at SIP per bbl. and s2.20 per doz, |, so that all may share in the luxury and benefits afforded by it's use.

The Pioneer News Depot.

There is hardly business house in Arizona that is so well known, especially Southern Arizona, as MT. J. $. Mans fields Pioneer News Depot in this city It is the pioneer news depot in Arizona, and there was time when MT. Mans field furnished nearly everybody with their newspapers, and he does large business in that line yet. He now has his building crowded with goods. Not only every known periodical or news paper can be obtained there, but books of every description is kept in stock: also paper. of all kinds and stationers' supplies. Mir. Mansfield has perhaps a system of doing business that is not surpassed by any other business house in Arizona. As result his customers are always promptly served. His liberal dealing have brought to hin: a large trade, and he keeps his prices down to a figure precluding any demand for con- petition in his line.
