Count MOntaignac.

The Count, who resided in Tomb stone for several months, making it his headquarters, is now in France The .Nogales Record furnishes the in- formation that he has perfected ar engagements to establish two colonies of one hundred families each, of French agriculturists, in Sonora, one near Fronteras and the other at Cacita.
 Fronteras is about 90 miles south- east of Nogales, and Cacita is some 35 miles south of Nogales on the line of the Sonora railroad. The purchase of the Cacita and Cibuta ranches, owned by Don Jose Pierson, is now pending, the price and all arrange ments having been agreed upon and settled. The Cibuta grant is one of the finest locations, for small colony in the state; plenty of water and very rich soil.

THE supervisors of Yavapai have been overhauling the county records and have discovered thousands upon thousands of uncancelled mortgages on record which have not been record ed in the assessment roll. Parties in whose favor these mortgages have been made, will be invited to attend session of the board and explain why they have not been reported to the assessor. In fact the board has asked for legal advice, to ascertain whether an action for perjury may not hold against parties who have sworn to their assessments where such omission have been made.-Journal Miner.

Sonora Coal Mines.

L B Howard of San Diego who re gently visited the coal fields neal Guaymas, says that the main oper A. tions now being carried on arc some forty miles from Ortiz, town on the Sonora railway between Hermosillo and Guaymas.
 The concession, which is owned by Mexican company, covers about 100000 acres. The enormous extent of the anthracite deposit may be com. prehended when it is said that borings fifty miles apart have found coal. The diamond drill has gone through four veins; the first being 2 feet, the second feet, the third T feet and the fourth the drill had penetrated P feet and is still working in coal. The coal is by actual test equal to the finest Lehigh valley product of anthracite. It can he traced for miles oa the surface, and the different borings of the drill show the same four veins of the same thick. ness.
 A railway sixty or sixty-five miles will bring the coal to the harbor at Guaymas, and the entire distance is 'ery smooth, offering no engineering obstacles.

Fetal Flames.

Richard, son of Thos. and Jane Har- ris, died in its mothers arms last night while being brought to Tomb stone from Turquois. The little fel- low was playing with bunch of matches on Tuesday last and set fire to his clothes but before being burned was caught by his parents and saved from a horrible death. While the parents were congratulating them- selves upon their good fortune in sav- ing their little one, the grim messen- ger was slowly and imperceptibly doing it's work. The little fellow complained yesterday of not feeling we'll and the parents started in the cool of the evening for Tombstone with him. When near the old San Diego smelter, the child breathed his last. The fatal flames had done their work without a warning. Although he had escaped disfguration of his body he had inhaled the deadly air.
 The distracted parents received all the condolence that sympathetic friends could offer in their unhappy hours.
 The funeral took place this after noon and was attended by a large concourse of friends and acquaintancea of the family.
