ing closed for the season, there was

CAPTAIN GIVES DOUGLAS \
 NEW SESSION IN BURGLARY

the same time there were three bur glaries of private houses. all of which resemble affairs of the same kind that followed previous visits of Fl Capitan.
 Last week the police learned that Capitan had been seen around Agua Prieta and that he had with him a number of the most hardened crimin- als of northern Sonora This was the signal for watchfulness and they took extra precautions. but were still unable to prevent the recent depreda- tions. However, they believe that they will be able to recover the stolen goods, capture the thieves and break up the present gang.
 Capitan was said to have served several times in the Mexican army when he was a convict at different times and to have pulled 0R at least |one big affair in Cananea- On this side of the line he has never been known to make any desperate moves. and he would not be classed as des- perate man, though it is hard to tell what he might do if cornered. He is considered a tricky and crafty criminal, who lets others do his work. At one time he was termed a Pagan and ultimately was given a jail sentence. Last time he was be- fore the court in Douglas he was sent to Tombstone on a vagrancy charge and given, six months sen tence. He was believed to have been connected with a series of petty crimes at that time, but the necessa- " evidence to connect him with them was not obtainable so well had he planned them.

DOUGLAS, Oct. g. - (SpeciaD -
 People of Douglas will do well to take extra precautions in seeing that doors and windows are locked, and in leaving their homes vacant at night for Capitan is about and has made his presence manifest in his usual manner by a series of house breaking and thievery of the sneak thief variety. Capitan is well known in this section as leader of thieves though 1t has never been possible to convict him of anything worse than misdemeanor, so shrewd is he in his conduct. He generally has others to do the real work. he attending to the planning of their escapades, accord ing to the officers. At one time he was said to have been at the head or a party of boys and to have thrived on their stealings. while at others his associates are grown men. When ever he is to be found in the vicinity q series of crimes are reported, al ways of the same general character. He was recently released fgrom a six months term at Tombstone and did not lose much time in returning to old haunts.
 For a week past the city and coun- ty officers have been keeping an ex- tra careful watch in anticipation of housebreaking and burglarizing of stores, but despite this the latter part of last week there was a series Of crimes committed that bear the Capitan stamp. The jewelry store Of A. E. Warren on c avenue was en- tered by prying open the front door and a number of watches, rings and silver spoons were taken and about

BABc0Ck TO our
 THE UNIVERSITY

TUCSON. Oct. 25.-At a meeting of the board of regents of the Uni yersity of Arizona which was held on November 10. President Kendrick c. Babcock will tender his resignation from the presidency of the uniyer- sity, and he will sever finally his connection with the institution at the end of the year. A report to this effect was received here today, and was confrmen by Dr. Babcock.
 His resignation will be made. he stated, in order that he may accept Ia newly created position in Wash ington as specialist in higher educa work will be of an advisory nature as related to colleges and universities in the United States. Further than that he does not know just what his duties will be.
 Il was appointed to the position without any solicitation on my part by Secretary R. A. Ballinger of the department of the interior upon the recommendation of Dr. Elmer Brown, commissioner of education" he said. .'The appointment should be officially announced from Washington today have known Commissioner Brown personally for many years and was associated with him in the Uniyer sity of California when he was ma jor professor of the department of education.
 T do not know much about the new position yet, but estimated that it is man's-sized job, and I want to try it."
 Dr. Babcock stated that he had no idea who would be called for the board of regents to succeed him in the presidency of the university.
 President Babcock has occupied his present position seven years, having accepted the presidency in Septem- Der. 1903. Prior to that time he was assistant professor of American his tory in the department of the Uni versity of California

SURVEYORS REACH
 ORACLE ON ROUTE

TUCSON, Oct. .25. = SpeciaD =
 Large new hopes of securing the El
 Paso and Southwestern for Tucson was born today, together with an entirely unexpected prospect of secur- ing an almost ideal summer resort right on the line of the railroad. when the news was received in the city this morning that crew of survey ors claiming 10 belong to the Fl Paso and Southwestern forces has reached Oracle.
 The surveyors were apparently run ming line from the main line of the Southern Pacific, beginning at point about six miles west of the city, to the GeesemanLea mining properties lately acquired by the Phelps Dodge interests on the north east slope Of the Catalina mountains
 and now known as Apache camp. In so doing the surveyors are apparently cutting in on, and following for a considerable distance, the old survey of the one-time proposed Tucson, Globe and Northern railroad, passing
 by Dry Lake, Steam Pump and Oracle.
 It Is known that the surveyors have surveyed from the San Pedro
 valley to those mining properties, and 1t is now presumed that they are trying the Santa Cruz-Oracle route.
 Those who are familiar with the country claim that the grade over the latter route Is much easier than that of the San Pedro valley. for whereas by the Santa Cruz route the grade calls for rise of POO feet in 40 miles by the San Pedro route the same all titude must be obtained in about IF miles.
 At this point the new hopes for a Tucson summer resort arise. An Fl Paso and Southwestern railroad ex- tended west from Benson parallelling for a distance the main line of the Southern Pacific, and debouching just west of Tucson to swing around over the easy grade to Camp Apache, will enable Tucsonians, citizens of Benson, and even all Southern Ari- zona to travel by rail almost to the foot of Mount Lennon. where the temperature is said to range from 50 to 70 degrees in the warmest weather.
