the requirements Of the University
as it now is. This increase is re-
markable.
Yet, several reasons can be assign
ed for it. Among them are: The
summer school, which has enabled
so many teachers to become ac
quainted with the school, free tut
ton IN all departm ents, the system
of articulated schools, and a more
general realization of the fact that
the University is the cap-stone Of
the public school system. The en-
rollment bids fair to make as large
increase next year as last.

"At the Sernefia mine I am sink. ing a shaft and winze. An aver age sample taken from everything hoiste1 from winze in twenty-four hours, assayed 52.2 oZ. The shaft is in red iron with some copper stained quartz, and assays twenty eight ounces. There are over 500 tons of that kind of ore on the dump. There is also a parallel vein in the Sernefia. about eighty feet east, which isssabout seven feet wide which shows good grade of ore. No returns yet from samples, but can see enough silver to make good ore.
 "At La Fortuna 1 found the old workings in bad shape, so l started a new shaft which is now down nfteen feet. Average samples aS- saved thirty-one ounces. A selected sample went S26 oz. silver per ton.
 Tn about twenty feet more La Fortuna will cut an inclined cross vein that has produced a great deal of high grade ore, and in the old workings still shows good milling ore. A general sample of the crop pings off from the cross vein assay ed I5.S oz silver. In the next lot of assays I will have the ores assay ed for gold. A Mexican working an adjoining claim, takes out ore which yields sro to SI4, gold per ton, working with arrastras.

James Walsh, superinten- dent of the properties near Tubu- tama in the Altar district conveying an outline of the work progressing, which certainly presents a very gratifying showing. Writes MT. Walsh:
 Upon the Pehasco Quemado I expected to find rich streaks of ore which made the ledge average up; but such is not the case, as l find good values i'll every sample taken at different places clear across the vein for seventy-fve feet.
 q started new shaft about 500 feet east of the old workings where the croppings did not run over five or six ounces. Now, at depth of twenty feet, l am getting ore that averages I9.5 oz., taking every thing that comes from the shalt. On this claim there are over o,ooo tons of ore that can be quarried of from the vein.

DIANA NOTES THAT

It is much better for women that
| men, to certain degree, remain in
ignorance regarding the toilette
feminine.
White was and is favorite, while
among the smartest toilettes mauve
black and white mixed and gray
musiins figure largely.
For country wear you must leave the
long skirt out Of the question.
There are some blue and white and
black prints at 10 and II cents yard
which make useful garments for NOR
ming wear.
Night robes and evening chemises
are nearly all cut Empire style.
For the country nothing beats the
Dolly Warden hat, in coarse straw
trimmed simply with flowers or rib
bon.
The short skirt must not be fitted SO
tightly around the hips as the long
one.
Sets of glove buttons in cases are q
pretty idea, and as present for man
there are sets Of waistcoat buttons
with or without sleeve links to match.
