OWNER OF HORSES DID
 NOT DIE, BOUND OVER
Bubio Thought Approaching End Meant That He Could Retain
 Possession

If Umaldo Escalante had not been somewhat backward about tossing away the mortal coil, Francisco Bu- bio would not have been bound over to the superior court for trial when he stood before Justice of the Peace Johnstone yesterday. Umaldo Es- calante is very much alive, so it is quite probable that Francisco Bubio will have to stand trial on charge of having obtained two of the Mexi- cans horses by embezzlement.
 E,scalante told Justice Johnstone last week that he loaned the horses to his neighbor, Bubio. several weeks ago, and Bubio had sold at least one of them.
 Bubio told the justice a strange story on his first appearance. He thought that his kind neighbor was about to die, and that he might as well sell one of the horses anyway. because Escalante certainly would have no use for them after he passed into the beyond Devils are supposed to have hoofs, of course. but what is there in heaven which resembles a horSe2
 Later Bubio told another story He said he had bought the horses. Con sidering all the changes in his reel tation the judge decided he should be tried in the superior court.

The first operator was Fred Branch, who had never seen lino- type machine, but within a month or two he was a proficient operator and he is said by experts to have been the best on the Pacific coast.
 The life of linotype was said at that time to be about six years. That may be true, though this ma chine is now in active service after a score of years. But every part of it subjected to wear has been re- placed three or four times, so that with the exception of the frame work it is a wholly different ma chine.
 Three years later The Republican acquired it's second machine and a year later this paper absorbed the old Phoenix Herald which had ac- ouired a machine late in 1895 and thus The Republican secured it's third linotype. A fourth was bought when The Republican moved into its present quarters.
