WRITING go WORDS A MINUTE.

II was only Saturday that at a con-
test in Providence a New York girl
showed a speed Of eighty-six words a
minute on a typewriting machine and
now comes news of man, s. H Cod
frey, who mas won the English cham
pionsnip cup as a shorthand writer,
he having developed a speed Of 23O
words minute. This is an amazing
rate, although It is claimed that there
are some stenographers who in a
squirt can beat that by twenty words.
There are but few men who can speak
at such a rate and even those who
can only DO so for two or three min
utes.--New Britain Herald.
