 IN STENOGRAP
Mechanical Shorthand Writ CTS of 1887 and Present
 Year Are Shown

There are at least two people in Phoenix who have been amused con- sid"rahly this fell and winter re- Edrdng some of the statements that have been made about shorthand machines. They are. Colonel F. NJ. [ Lamson. president of the Lamsuu Business College and Dr. omar X. Turney. A number of people have called at the LamSou Business Col l lege and stated that they wished tu see the new invention for writing shorthand
 When Dr. Turney came to Phoenix
 in the eighties part of his work was l that of a steuographer He wrote Munson'S system of shorthand. but ! he had also learned Co operate a shorthand machine known as the Stenograph and he brought one of l these machines with him As he has i had mo use for this machine for years about year ago Dr. Turney made ] a present of it to the LumsOn BuSi- ! ness College.
 When Colonel F.. NJ I.lmson was a teacher in the Bryant and Stratton Business College. Chicago. in 1SSN. that school was selling and teach 1 ing the shorthand machine known as 1 the Stenograph It was capable of d I speed Il two hundred ana IlIlN words per minute and many who | learned To operate the machine at 1 that time are still using il for court Wug, and other work that requires very rapid writing
 ! The principal objection to the l lStenograph was the length of time that it took to learn to operate it ! rapidly, usually from five to eight months. Since then d. great deal of | experimenting has been done with ! shorthand machines and about five years ago new machine was put ] out by NIr. w. S. Ireland that has been quite successful This stimu- ! lated others to try their inventive genius in that line until there are a i dozen or more shorthand machines During and since the state fair the ! Lamson Business College has had on exhibition two machines. The old | Stenograph which Dr. Turney brought ' to Phoenix in 1SS7 and the latest and

J. Craig Mechanism. stenosra pher for The Republican and Miss Nerna Kelly of Phiripsburg Mont. were married at Los Angeles last Friday and returned to Phoenix yesterday morning. They are at home at 1912 West Washington street.
 This event is the continuation of a friendship of many years standing and which rapidly ripened into some thing more than mere friendsnip. So, what happened to MT McClanahan at Los Angeles was no surprise to him however, great .one it may have been to his friends here
 But even his friends who had never heard of Miss Kelly predicted that the fates had something pleasant in store for Mir. Mechanism and that he knew all about it. For days before leaving for Los Angeles he went about eNuding joy. Of course, at that season of the year. with Christmas in the offing. everybody was more or less joyful but with MT Mechanism it was such an extreme case as to be noticeable and excite remark and sus- picion

ItaIy's Deep Blue Skies.

The sky of Italy is noted for It's
clearness The blue is deeper not be-
cause the dust there is finer than In
the northern countries, but because
in the countries OF the North, due to
the greater GOODNESS of the air, the
vapor more readily condenses upon the
dust particles. The dust particles thus
become larger and consequently not so
effecti, in turning back the blue rays
alone, but others are also reflected
and a grayish effect is produced. In
a single location the blue OF the SKY
may appear bluer at one time than an
other. The sky is oftentimes said to
be very blue when some white cumu-
lus clouds are outlined against 1t. The
sky is then a deep blue by contrast
with the brilliant white. After a
shower. when the lower stratum OF air
is washed Of its coarse dust particles,
a deeper and purer blue is the result

that he had taken down the dictation

he came TO one curved outline which
entirely baftied him. II seemed to be

in his transcript and went on to write

troublesome outline. As he gave
hopeless sigh. gazing sadly at the out

paper Terror took possession of him.
He thought his mind must be going,
But It was only the outline. His sigh
really had solved the problem. The
outline was an eyelash which had

DRAYMEN SAY
THEY INTEND
To 0MAKEF|CHT
REPORTED THAT THEY HAVE
EMPLOYED COUNSEL AND WILL
CONTEST RECENT ORDINANCE
PASSED BY COMMISSIONERS

The draymen of the city, or at least
they are going to make fighth on the
recently enacted ordinance preventing
them from standing upon the main
street of the city. 1t has been report
ed that counsel has been engaged
and that an injunction will be their
first move to prevent the city enforc-
ing the provisions of the new ordi-
nance.
The draymen claim that the law
discriminates against them. They
maintain that if automobiles are al
lowed to stand on the street that they
should be, they also state that GER
being permitted to maintain their old
stands while they are compelled to
move elsewhere.
Street commissioner Dewitt stated
this morning that he had been in
formed that the draymen were prepar-
ing to take some action, but stated
further that in the event they were
successful in their contention. it
would but necessitate an ordinance be-
ing passed, eliminating all vehicles
from standing on the streets and com.
pei the city authorities to pass law
that will make all grocery and other
delivery wagons load from the rear of
the places of business. AS the situa-
tion is now, the city authorities are
apparently waiting for the draymen
to make the first move.
