MAYOS.
Thoso arc the Indians who bave been
 Doing Some Of the Work.
P.6pcctOr.

P.Ospcctor.
 The capture of one of the Indians who robbed Gattrell's camp subsequent to driving him off with fusilade of bull lets, has been made. He is a Mayo h. dian and ere this, is in all probability i'll the Happy Hunting Grounds. From w. c. Green who was on the trail of the four horse thieves who stole ore of his horses, the Prospector learns that the ono who was captured was taken by the Mexican rangers and that all efforts to capture the others were unsuccessful.
 The fellow who was taken was not Mexican but native Mayo Indian of tribe who live in the mountains far in tho interior. He talked good English and stated that he had been in Tucson with the Pspagoes, also at Si c lrlos He wore long hair gin front iu t as Apaches do, also long behn d. His features, dress and face were similIr to that of an Apache. He carried ia his belt red handkerchief, which he used to tie around his head in place of som brero when after plundsr. MT. Green says that if placed among Apaches on the San Carlos reservation it would take on expert to detect the difference, If any, from an Apache.
 When captured he was crouched be- hind rock watching the rangers who were approaching from the front. The latter had prepared for a fight and had adopted the tactics of the Apaches, had the fellow surrounded. While he was looking in front one of the rangers came down from behind and before he knew what was up, the muzzel of his rifle was within ten feet of hIs head. He turned, saw his predicament and surrendered. He had U. s. carbine and two belts of U. s. government cartridges. Where he procured them is mystery. The car tridges were covered with a white grease, denoting that they had been very re- gently taken from 8 box.
 The camp in the San Jose mountains where they had been camped, showed signs of four Indians. The evidence Of this band having robbed GattrelPs camp were there in the shape of pieces of salvation army papers torn up ln small pieces and used for cigarette papers. They also found pair of bro gans which answer to ths description of the pair taken from Gattrell's house. Gattrell and Connolly, it will be re l membered ars ardent supporters and | active workers in the army of the Lord, or salvation army.
 If Mr. Gattrell insists that an Indian | attacked him, he IS certainly correct from Mir. Greens statement.

FROM SAN XAVIER.
Grasshopper rPest-Indians as Garden
 ers-More Tools-Progress.

The grasshopper pest struck the San Xavier reservation a month ago, mak- ing havoc in the crops. A quantity of wheat and many vegetables were des- troyed by them, and they are now work ing on young beans coming through. One plat of 300 fine cabbages was destroy ed by them.
 The vegetable crop is new depart ment with the Indians, and the onions they have sold in town this year ere very large. Many more of the Papago, 6 will be market gardeners next ear, and promise strong opposition to the China men, who at present have monopoly on that business.
 The work of the reservation has been delayed by lack of tools, of which twslve blows were finally obtained in this city through orders from the government. More tools are expected soon.
 Little ram has fallen at the reserva- ton of late.
 The Indians are all working very well.
 The number of visitors 10 the mission has fallen off of late, due of course to the warm season.

Walker, the Southern Pa cifc engineer and other gentlemen of the party. They were the first ladies to view the grand scenery of the beautiful scope of country to be seen from the mountain top.
 A mountain lion brought into camp a few days ago, killed by Papagoes from the neighboring village, was theme for many comments.
 A dance;tendered the party at Arivaca last Monday night is reported as most enjoyable affair.

COURSE OF INSTRUCTION

The studies to be pursued art similar to those of several of the wei known agricultural colleges and mining schools in the country, modified to suit the special requirements of the territo ". Both courses include a four years curriculum of scientific studies, and the university is well equipped with laboratories, furnaces, and other apparatus for giving students equal advantages with those that may be found in older institutions.
 Hereafter, young men of Arizona who desire to follow any branch of agriculture, or of min ng, will not be compelled to go to ( (a'ifornia or to eastern colleges, to secme an education.
 To establish and equ ? these two schools, in first class CO ldition, the board of regents have wisely determin- ed to concentrate the energies of the university on the two schools, leaving other departments to be established when the the territory becomes a state and We have a greater population and more means.
 The instruction in the school of agriculture is designed to impart a knowledge of the natural sciences and their application to the arts of life, particularly agriculture.
 Chemistry, Botany, Horticulture, and the use of water in irrigation will re- ceive special attention, both in theory and in practice. The studies of the class room will be supplemented by laboratory and field work practice. The university grounds and the several experiment stations in the territory are to be used as means of illustration.
 In addition to the prescribed work of thirty-hve weeks in the university, students will be required to spend three weeks at other stations and on the fruit farms of the territory during the year, studying and practicing the details of experimental, and farm work, and irrigation, under the supervision of members of the faculty.
 Facilities will be provided for instruction and practice in the several branches of agriculture and horticulture, such as surveying, levelling, general ar rangement of farms, road making, plan ming and constructing buildings and fences, care of machinery, laying out canals, and ditches, measurement of water, etc.
 Provision is made for two regular courses leading to the degree B. s. Bachelor of Science and advanced studies leading to to the degree NJ. S. (Master of Science,) C. F. Civil Engi- neeT and I. E. Qrrigation Engineer.)

may be given in the theory and practice of mining and metallurgy, and related subjects. Dr, Theo. B.

PREPARATORY COURSE.

A preparatory course extending through one collegiate year has been provided for, embracing studies in Arithmetic, English, Grammar, His tory, Elementary Algebra, Physical Geography, Drawing, and writing.
 This course is designed for such students as do not have facilities at home, to prepare them for entering the regular classes in the university schools.
 In the establishment of this depart ment of the university it is not the intention at present to afford op- portunity for a common school education, but simply a school that will prepare students for taking up the technical work of the schools now organized in the university,
 For entrance into the preparatory school students will be required to pass an examination that will show that they have some knowledge of arith- metic, grammar, geography, and be able to write legibly and spell simple common words correctly.
 Students in this department must be not less than sixteen years old, and they will be under the same rules and discipline as other students of the uni versity.
 The university has ample facilities to instruct large number of students. but no provision is made for boarding students.

Mangled and Torn.

The body of an unknown man was found by the section foreman today, about two and half miles east Of San Simon mangled beyond recognition. The man was apparently about 45 years of age, sandy hair and whiskers, hair curly and turning gray. He wore an old white slouch hat with broad brim, blue overalls, gray vest, and about a No. shoe. There was nothing on his person which might lead to his identity, the only articles found being pipe and piece of plug tobacco.
 Justice R. A. Alfred, ex -ofhoio coroner, was notified of the ghastly find, who came to San Simon and summoned a jury as follows, to hold the inquest: Fred Ruch, G. J. Gardner, Jesse M. Henley, John l.. Baldwin, G.S. Stone and W. E. Pierce, who gave it as their opinion that the man was killed acci- dentally by some train passing over the road on the night of the 26th inst, no blame being attached to any one. The remains of the unfortunate man were inferred here, after the inquest. The clothing worn by him were preserved to possibly aid in identification at some future time.-Stockman.

REQUIREMENTS FOR AD-
 MISSION.

Candidates for admission into the freshman class of the university must be at least sixteen years of age, of good character, and must pass thorough examination in Arithmetic, Geography, Grammar, and History of the United States, and show evidence that they have sufficient knowledge of language to write short essay in good English on some assigned topic.
 Provision will be made for receiving the graduates of the high schools of Arizona without examination, provided the course of instruction IS such as to warrant suitable preparation.
 Recognizing the fact that there are in the territory certain persons of mature age who feel that they cannot spare the time to take up regular course of study, but who feel the need of instruction in certain things that would materially assist them in their callings, the board of regents have made provision for short course of technical study in the two schools of the university, subjeet to certain hraitations.
 llhS class of instruction must, of necessity, be restricted to those subjects which are not dependent on prior l training in special lines.
 It IS not proposed to encourage superficial work, nor can the time of the faculty be given to those who desire to study subject for which they are not prepared. For this reason ap- plications of students for a special course must be considered Individually, with a clear understanding of all the circumstances.
 Applications of students should be forwarded to the head of the school of agriculture, or of the school of mines, stating what is desired, and what qualifications the applicant may have to fit him for the course.
 At present the special subjects which can be taught in the school of mines are assaying, photography, drawing, possibly some others. In he schoo of agriculture, propagation of plants, budding, grating, pruning, preserving fruits, destroying injurious insects, ir- rigation, use of level and compass, laying off ditches, and such work as may be understood without special training.
 Applicants may begin such studies at any time during the year when members of the faculty have time for the work. While at the university they will be enrolled as students and be subject to the rules of the institution. No charge will be made by the univer- sity for entrance or for such instruction, except for materials used.
 No entrance examination will be re- quired as q rule, and no formal certificate of proficiency can be given; but any special student who has compiled with all the requirements will be entitled to a written document simply setting forth the facts.
 Applicants must be at least eighteen years of age, and they will be expected to present references with application in regard to character and industrious habits.

Longer Terms for Country Schools.

Judge Wood, county superintendent, intends making a request that longer terms be granted to the country schools of Pima county, at the next session of the board of supervisors.
 'The average length of term in the country schools through the county" sad the judge, 'is a little over six months. Now who does not know that what is taught in six months is pretty nearly forgotten in the other six? The additional two or three months, which is what l want-two months more at least-will make very material improve ment in the pupils. think the addition al levy 1 shall ask the board to make should be granted. Whatever grumbl- ing there is heard of too high taxes, it will be noticed that it is not on school taxes From the outside there will be little fault found with an addition fer this purpose"

 Arizona has received the appropria- ton of $I5 5000 for 1890, and $I6,ooo for 1891, and these sums are being ex- pended in the equipment and support of the university.
 In 1889 the Legislature of Arizona passed bill appropriating three-fourths of a mill on each one dollar of the as- sessed value of all property in the ter ritory, for the support and maintenance of the university. This act was amended by the last legislature, making the annual appropriation one half a mill. From this source the university has had placed to its credit to June 3oth, 1890, the sum of $33,395.89. The territorial appropriation is being expended in the completion of the university and other buildings.

SCHOOL OF MINES.

The board ofregents, recognizing the vast resources of Arizona in metal iferous deposits and the great import ance of their thorough and economical development by well trained engi- neers, have appropriated large portion of the available university funds for the establishment and equipment of a school of mines, in which instruction
