ARIZONA UNIVERSITY
MINING COURSE
STUDENTS Will STUDY PRAC-
TICAL MINING DURING
SUMMER.
Will Bring Mining Department to the
Fore.

That DR.. Wilde, the new president OF
the University of Arizona is determined
that the chief educational institution OF
the territory is not TO be behind the
other universities of the country is
evidenced by recent decision made by
the faculty in regard 10 work in the
mining department.
The mining class of the University
of Arizona will go north TO spend about
six weeks of their summer vacation
doing practical work in mine survey
ing under the tutelage of Mr.. Rice, a
prominent mining engineer of the
northern section of the territory. Mr.
Rice is at the university now and will
give his future class a little lecture
this evening on their equipment and
other things pertaining to such a trip
Mr.. Rice is a graduate of Texas A,
& VI. and also the Michigan College
Of Mines situated at Houghton. He
is a practical man, and no one could
be better fitted to take the class for
a trip Of this nature. The university
is especially fortunate in obtaining a
man of Mir. Rice's calibre To show the
prospective mining engineers few
points along practical lines in regard
10 mine surveying. Practical work is
one Of the most valuable things TO
young engineers at this stage of the
game, and this course is especially so,
since it viii help the men to eliminate
things that will probably bother them
later on in their work.
The mine in which the students are
to be drilled will be near Prescott and
will probably be the Poland mine, al
though it has not been fully settled as
yet. The boys will have the mine all
to themselves and can work to their
hearts content under the watchful eye
of Mr.. Rice. Mr.. Rice plans to have
the twelve men who will accompany
him work in squads Of about three
each. One squad will run the plane
table. another squad at the same time
will work on the tunnel in various 9TH
er ways The trip is looked forward to
by all with a great deal of interest.
The party will leave about June ,.
At Phoenix the men will do some sur
vey work on land near the capital city.
This is work that requires an unusual
amount Of accuracy and Is calculated to
be 2 great help to the class. They
will then continue on to Prescott and
there outfit for the trip to the hills.

BRIGHT FUTURE FOR SAN SIMON
The Lordsburg Liberal says:

The LordSburg Liberal says:
 w. D. Buck was in from San Sim on this week. He predicts a great future for the artesisn well town, he says the well that is now producing some 800 gallons ot water minute was sunk under great difficulties. The casing broke, the hole got crooked, the final 300 feet consists of small pipe, and yet there is good flow of water. With a well drilled that will go down the $50 feet straight and of one size, he expects to see a gusher that will make the valley famous. He says there are artesian wells in the Sulphur Springs valley that give a good flow of water that have oyer them windmills and are so disguised that a casual observer would never suspect they were artesian wells, and so their water is used to water cattle instead of producing alfalfa and other farm products.

SMOOTH ROBBERY OF
 A DARING BURGLAR
Mrs. James Baldwin HeId-up at Her Home Wednesday Night And Robbed of $4OO
 Worth of Diamonds

At the cottage home of Mir. and
 Mrs. James Baldwin in east Clifton
 there occurred Wednesday night a.
 bout one o'clock most bold and
 cowardly robbery of a lone lady at
 her home, the robber securing jewelry and diamonds valued at S4O0. At the
 time mentioned Mrs. Baldwin heard a knock at her front door, and aris- : ing, inquired who it was, when the answer came, ''I have a note for you from your husband," as MT. Baldwin often stays late at his place of busi- ness, Mrs. Baldwin had no suspicion of anything wrong and opened the door, when she was confronted by a masked man with big pistol point ed at her, who demanded her money and jewels. The lady was so frigh- tened by the fierce expressions of the thief, who had stepped into the room, that she handed him the jewel case from the dresser, declaring she had no money. He then backed out of the door and made his escape.
 The alarm was quickly given and Policeman Hamilton and Deputy Garnett secured that part of town until daylight, arresting two or three suspects, who were released as they proved to be good citizens of Morenci who had been down in Clifton for the night and were making their way home to go on at the II o'clock shift | at the works up there.
 Evidently whoever this vicious, cowardly thief is, he knew that MT. Baldwin was not at home, or he | would not have taken the chance he | did. It is hoped that he will soon be captured.

 would result in serious injury or the destruction of said building. That in
 order to prepare the premises so selected for the construction Ot said Courthouse building, it would be
 necessary to expend on said premises large sum of money and further necessary, for the protection of the
 building constructed on said premises,
 to construct a retaining wall at a
 large expense. That plaintiff alleges that the preparation of said premises for the construction of said Court house and the retaining wall for the protection thereof would eos t approximately the sum of Five Thou sand (S5, ,0OO) Dollars.
 Plaintiff alleges that the site select ed for a Courthouse is in the extreme southeastern portion of the town of Clifton, approximately one mile and half from the business center of said town. That the Arizona & New Mexico Railway Company does not have or maintain a depot on said Hills Addition for the accommodation for the travelling public; that t h @ only station maintained by said Company is approximately one aud one half miles in 8 northerly direction from said Courthouse site. Therefore plaintiff alleges that it would be extremely inconvenient for the citizens and taxpayers of said County to reach said Courthouse a nd extreme y inconvenient for parties having business with the officers of said Court and suitors and others who may have business in the several courts held in said Courthouse to reach the same.
 The injunction suit Is brought in the name of w.

 It is reported that before the injunc- tion papers were served an effort was made at compromise but failed and the matter will now go to the court.
