Two II xican vsqueros arrived this forenoon from Couireras' ranch at tbe BaboqUiyaris, wita span of mules and 0 wagon, bringing the exciting news that ;he Apacies had jumped the ranches n that ueIghBorhOod on Sur- day night, nud that they had escaped in the darkness. They drove to kObles' ranch yesterday and remained there all night, and reached IdcsOn little be- lore noon to-day.
 In that ns,ghboFhoOd there Is a group of ranches containing many horses and cattle. fGese belong to Messrs. Lguer- gan X Holmes, COntreTGs, Redondo and O;ero, and tue yaquerOs thought the Apaches lad rounded up most of She stock without opposition by the fright ened men iH chlrge.
 The story Of the ysquCrCs is doubted.

| Desperahn Cap:nred.

There vas a sceDe Of unusual excite meut enacted upon the streets Of this ordinarily quiet city yesterday after noon, which, for a time. promised to culminate in tragedy.
 A Mexican who had imbibei Quan- tity of mescal and got into good fight InS trim, determined to shed oil the grIngo blood be could reach. and he purchased long knife aud whetted its edge almost as sharp Gs n razor and started forth on his sanguinary cam pHign. He made things uisagreeable around Congress Hall, and was cOmmu- nIng with one Ot It's GwnIrg posts when one of his cJuntrymsn notified Marshal Roche of the mUrierOus intent of toe iesperadO. Mir. Roche promptly went up to the m an and directed hun 10 give up his knife. Instead of doing SO the Mexican jumped out into the street and deted the officer. Mir, Roche followed him, 2 hen the fellow whipped ont his gleaming knife and threatened to carve the marshal into small fragments. Mir. Roche was not to be taken ID so easily and he drew hls little gun on the man And threatened that unless the kulfe was surrendered Es would shoOt.
 The Mexican kept dOl.Iug and jump ing about abd gralusl y worked hIs way down Mesiil,. street, and H bis crowd Of people gathered about 10 witness tbe siE- gle handed encJuater, knowing that the c1Ol-hcadsd officer would not shoot un less such an extreme measure became absolutely necessary. Billy Lucas final ly came upon the scene. and as he rushed towards the two men he grabbed up wooden bar used to iasten the doors of an Rdia- cent store, and coming suddenly up be- hind the dangerous man, dealt him Q stunning blow alongside of the head aud lad out at ihe feet of Mir. Roche. The blow WAS timely for the desperadO cad stooped for a >pTing at the officer and in sheer self-defense 1t would have been uece- sary fer MT. Roche to shoot him dead. The prostrate and conquered Mexican was conveyed to tue city iaIl and with a little care be came around al right. although badly bruised, and ste hearty supper and big break fast this morning.
 It k learned that the fellow WAS a convict in Sonora and WAS eerving out his sentence ID one of the regiments m that state. A short time ago he desert ed, taking one of the oificers horses snd other articles. He was pursued but managed to elude his pursurers after having killed six of the posste. lie is a bad man and 1t is to be regretted that the Marshais index finger was not sui ficienily nervous to have sent bullet through him when his Gim was taken.

Good Farming.

Rev. U. Gregory, who owns ranch of 67Is acres ou the Santa Cruz, near St. Joseph's hospital, is demonstrating the superiority of intelligent culture, by deep and thorough cultivation, over the prImitine methods followed by the nG- tive farmers His farm, although just merging from 6 condition of hHphsZzsrd culture into the better system of mod ern agricultural science, contrasts strIk- ingiy vi tn the adjacent fields Owue by Mexicans, and 1t furnishes them good working model If they chose to profit by the example. The peach, apricot, ts and other trees are growing with health ful vigor, and the alfalfa fields maintain their bright verdure when adjacent ones look parched and sIckly; tke corn fields produce with remarkable exnOerance and the ranch seems to be specIally ia yored by those who do not comprehend the value and utility of deep and thor ough tIllage. In another year this con- trast will be more marked and instead ot the usual barren scene Of desnlatIu u that chnracteriZes many of tie farms ID the valley. an attractive and pleasant home will be erected, where the shades of fruitful trees cool the earth and bios- sons smile their thankfulness for the care bestowed and tbe privilege they en- joy of embCilishing the face of the earth.
