Changes At The University.

temerb 18th. The prospects for
an exceedingly large attendance
the coming year are very bright,
as an unusual large number of in
quiries have been received, the
majority coming from students
who expect to enter the collegiate
department. Many of these in
quiries come from students who
have been attending some Of the
largest colleges in the east. Sew
eral families will locate in Tucson
for the purpose Of educating their
children at the University.
During the summer months elec-
tricians have been busy wiring the
different building which will be
lighted this fall by electricity
furnished by the local light COM
pany. The poles have been pIac.
ed and the wires are now being
strung to the University. The
main building was heretofore
lighted by dynamo belonging to
the University, but this will be
sold and the buildings will all be
lighted and supplied with power
from the city.
The botanical laboratory is be-
ing removed to the room formerly
occupied by the museum and the
entire south wing of the main
building will be occupied by the
chemical laboratory. Part of the
museum will be stored until it can
be placed in the new library build
ing which will be erected this fall.
The new library will without
doubt be placed in front of the
main building, facing south. 1t is
expected that work on the CON
struction will begin sometime this
fall, so that the building will hard
ly be ready for occupancy until
some time next year.
George NJ. Evans, who has had
charge Of the commercial depart
ment in the Redlands High School
will enter the University this fall
and act as registrar. A. &. P.

has been appointed instructor in
chemistry, will also enter the
course in mining engineering.
He is spending the summer ut

in Florida. Mrs. Mann, who re-
turned with him, has gone for a
months stay on the coast.

Professor and Mrs. Thornboro have
returned from camping trip in
the Santa Rita mountains.
Professor Adams, who recently
returned from the session Of the
National Educational Association
at Minneapolis, visited four state
universities on his way back. He
says that the Universities Of Mon.
tana and oregon do rot equal the
University Of Arizona in buildings
and equipment, and that the manu-
al training department here eX'
cells those at the Universities Of
Minnesota ond California.
Two new advance courses in
chemistry will be introduced al
the University the coming term
and advance courses in steam en-.
gineering and in engineering con
struction and hydraulics will also
| be introduced.
Professor Hall, who is in the
northern part of the Territory eX,
arnining university land with I
view to relocating it on the forest
lands, was joined by his wife this
week. He has found that his work
there will be more extensive than
at first supposed and consequently
he has been allowed larger sun
| for expense with which to secure
guides to lead him to the tracts
which the University proposes tC
relocate in order that he may
make personal examination o
them.
