Switzerland March 21, 1850. In
early life he came to the United
States, making his home at
Binghampton, N. Y. In 1879
he came to New Mexico and two
years later was united in mar
riage to Miss Charlotte Ruhe at
Santa Fe. Seven children, FIVE
boys and two girls, were born of
the union, all of whom survive.
Mr.. and Mrs Cortesy came to
Socorro in November, 1881, and
have resided here ever since.
Deceased engaged in various
kinds of business in the city and
was successful. Several years
ago he met with an accident that
seemed permanently to impair
his health. A short time ago he
bought some valuable property
in Douglas, Arizona, and only a
few days before his death he re-
turned home from there on ac-
count of the excessive heat. His
life was insured for a considera-
BILE amount and he left his family
otherwise comfortably provided
for. Mr.. Cortesy was a good
and a highly respected citizen
and his loss will be keenly felt
by the entire community.

A travelling man from Texas
who was in town one day this
week gave excellent reasons for
believing that the stranger who
was killed by lightning in Socor-
70 on the 9th day of last July
| was a man named Liuuen whom
he knew in Texas.
The oldest resident says that
for twenty years Socorro has not
experienced another such a "spell
of weather" as has prevailed for
ten days. The temperature has
climbed to loo degrees above
zero, there has been no rain for
weeks, and scorching winds and
sand storms are frequent day and
night.
Socorro has been blessed this
week by the presence of a
"healer. He wears long hair.
beard, and cloak. He appears to
be harmless, as his mode of opera
tion is to bless a handkerchief for
the afflicted which is then sup
posed to possess curative or pre-
ventive properties. If he sue
ceeds in making anybody believe
that he is not afflicted with a
real or imaginary disease he has
accomplished some good. A con-
tribution is entirely optional with
the patient. Large numbers of
of people have visited him.
One of the features of the en-
campment of Co. II will be the
bestowal of bronze medals upon
those members of the company
who have not failed in atteLd-
ance upon drill. There viii be
a medal for those who have not
failed during the first six months,
another for those who have not
failed during the second six
months aud final medal of honor
for those who have not failed in
attendance during the year. The
medals will be on exhibition next
week at Frank Abeytia's iewelry
store. Capt. Matthews is deter
mined to bring his company to a
