About 6 o'clock yesterday morn ing Francisco Padillo, with a num- Der of others, was discharging dyna- mite cartridges on Monroe street. near the Union saloon, in celebra- ton of Victor Emanuers Day. Thinking the fuse in one case had gone out, Padillo picked it up and proceeded to light it with his cigar ette, just as the fuse stood project ing short distance from the deadly explosive. A terrific reverberation followed. Celestine Ceschetti, who stood close by, jumped several feet over a gutter ditch, as though he had been shot from mortar.
 After the smoke had cleared away Padillo was seen bending over hold ing his left arm. The hand had been entirely blown of, only few shreds of tendon, muscle and skin hanging from the bloody wrist.
 The injured man was taken into the saloon where he sat uutil pr. Helm arrived. It was apparent that amputation must be performed. With the assistance of Adjutant General Gill, who attended to the chloroform, an operation was quickly performed half way up the arm and the patient was taken home to the south side of town as soon as he could be moved.

Territorial University.

The University of Arizona is al ready eliciting wide and favorable comment, which is very gratifying to the people of our territory. The building being now about compile ted, the chemical laboratory equip ped and in working order, supplied with gas and water, and everything will be ready for students at the beginning of the first session, Sep tember 30th. This institution IS intended to meet every want of the citizens of Arizona without being compelled to send youths abroad for educational purposes, and we believe that under the present man agement it will meet this expecta- tion, and furthermore, that it will in time attract students from other states and territories. Our citizens throughout the territory should be- come acquainted with its course of instruction and obtain such general information concerning the univer- sity as will enable them to speak in telligently of it and good word for it when necessary. Thus will its patronage be speedily built up and its fame and usefulness widely extended; and in due season it shall become the pride and glory of the future state of Arizona.-Tucson Star.

Judge Sloan has just made a de- cision in favor of the Cochise county sheriff which will interest that officer in other counties. Sheriff Kelton took a number of prisoners to Yuma. He took with him a deputy guard, and Tn due time put in his bill for mileage for each prisoner, besides his own and that of his deputy, besides the expenses of the trip, fares, etc. This the board refused to allow claiming that the mileage on each prisoner was not warranted by law. Sheriff Kelton took exception to this ruling and an srreed case submitted to Judge Sloan who has decided that the board must pay mileage on every prisoner sonveyed.-Phep1 Herald.
