Abstract: Under the assumption of the existence of Stahl's $S$-compact set we give a short proof of the limit zeros distribution of Pad'e polynomials and convergence in capacity of diagonal Pad'e approximants for a generic class of algebraic functions. The proof is direct but not from the opposite as Stahl's original proof is. The generic class means in particular that all branch points of the multi-sheeted Riemann surface of the algebraic function are of the first order (i.e., we assume the surface is such that all branch points are of square root type). We do not use the relations of orthogonality at all. The proof is based on the maximum principle only.
