to their country home next month.
 THE VIDETTE is pleased to an- nounce the almost complete recov- cry of the young man who was ac- cidently shot in The Palace on the Fourth of July by Mr. Lou Jordan No man regrets tine accident more than Mir. Jordan.
 On the Fourt of July Ralph Me Corkle's fine saddle horse was ac- cidentally shot in the neck, by some chump being too laze to raise his gun above his waist-band. Fortunately the animal was not hurt badly and Ralph is exceed ingly glad.
 A NJ Carter and F NJ Hummel of the Magdalena Exploration and Development company, spent the Fourth in Nogales, Mr. Hummel coming here from Guaymas and MT. Garter from Magdalena. The morning of the fifth the gentlemen returned south.
 Tuesday morning Mr. Ed. w Jones, the Mesa City mining mn, who is operating in the Magdalena district, returned to his mines after spending the Fourth pleasantly in Nogales. MT. Jones is one of the best practical miners in the country, having had many years experience.
 Charlie Castile is sporting a game leg, the result of too much ac- tivity on the Fourth. He was flirting with the south end of a wagon going north at rapid rate of speed, when he was thrown to the ground with terrible force. Fortunately, to the great delight of his friends, no bones were hroken.
 The Tombstone American, Bell & Semple, proprietors and publishers, will in future be published at Douglas, Arizona, under the name of the Douglas American. The American is a good paper and it's owners are first class newspaper men. THE BORDER VIDErTE hopes the Americans life in Douglas will be long and prosperous.
 H. w. Squires of the Montana mine stated yesterday that about twenty men are now employed at the Montana, doing development work only, says the Star. The Old Glory mine is putting in lot of new machinery, including concen- traitors, and is remodeling its mill. Work at the Old Glory will be started about August 1.
 This week F Mcdonald of the Mcdonald group of mines in the Gro Blanco district, was a business visitor at the county seat. The many friends of Mir. Mcdonald will be pleased to know he is now on ''easy street." His faith in the future of the Gro Blanco district has never been shaken and now he is reaping a rich reward.
 Thursday Hon. Geo. w Atkin- son of Calabasas appeared before the board of equalization with his annual kick. MT. Atkinson is one of the best single-handed takers in Santa Cruz county and we will wager a small sum, his "kick" will stick. THE VIDETrE has a great admiration for the gentleman's staying qualities. The honorable board will no doubt give him a run for his money, for while they are looking out for the interests of the taxpayers they have no desire to give any one the worst of it.
 The Los Angeles Mining Review of July 4th, published an interest ing descriptive article on the Uni versity of Arizona, and refers editorially to the same in words of commendation. It suggests that the time is not far distant when the university will be well endowed by the rich mining companies who are reaping such vast wealth from our mines. This will no doubt prove true, for the mining com panies ought to contribute some oi the vast wealth taken from the mines of Arizona to our higher educational institutions

 Nogales can i'll afford to lose Cap

 public spirited men and has done
 much toward the up-building O
 the town.
