 The Rev. Pastor, Father Du- val and his efficient committee of ladies are much encouraged by the response of the people. An excellent novelty has been introduced in the form of con cert interlude. A violin over ture of Irish melodies with piano accompaniment will be given by two promising young musicians, Mir. Jack O'Keefe and Mir. Flu gene Peltier. Mrs Ferd Van Mouriclk, the talented elocution- ist, will render a selection, and Mrs. Frank Barry, the popular soprano, will sing an appro- priate selection of Irish ballads, with violin and piano accom- paniment.
 MT. Jose Pierson, the accom- plished tenor is secured for the at least one classical number, and his gifted pupil, Mir. Jesus Garcia, will also sing with his customary success, q number of Spanish songs.
 Prof. F. V. Balsells, the re- gular tenor of the Catholic church choir, will graciously add his able efforts to complete the programme.
 Many are expected who will be attracted by this extraordinary combination of artists, all well known and highly appreciated by the community of Nogales, on both sides of the boundary.

"COLD FEET ."
Cause of dost Departures From
 fueFte Valley.

That Americans who feel great uncaSineSSN on the West Coast of McXich and are haStening to the United States are more the victims of cold feet" than of a well-founded apprehension is, in effect, the statement of F. F.. CouvillOn, who has written to Tucson from his home at Los Mochis. Sinaloa.
 In regard to statements given out in Tucson to the effect that every American who has money to pay his railroad fare is com ing out of Mexico, 1 wish to say that in the valley of the Fuerte river there are now at least 23O Americans, men, women and children. Other than a few sporadic cases of cold feet amounting in all to some five or six persons, no Americans have left this valley for the United States on account of the recent political disturbances; in fact, a party of eight ladies recently arrived here at Los Mochis, direct from the United States, to spend a few months with re- latives. Other Americans are coming in from day to day, on their regular business trips" he writes.
 ''The anti i-American feeling" indicated by the interview party is in no way evident here. Here at Los Mochis there are some 1GO Americans. and there has not been the slightest hint of i'll feeling toward them on the part of the natives"

Tom Turner, ex-sheriff o1 !! Santa Cruz county, one of the best peace officers any county in
 Arizona ever had, was a visitor in the city a couple of days this
 week from his ranch near Elgin,
 where he and Major l.. l.. Carri-
 llo have a big bunch of cattle
 From here Mir. Turner went to
 Sonora on cattle business accom- panied by Hon. o. F. Ashburn of Patagonia.
 David IT. Lawrance, mining engineer, who some ten years ago was interested in the Jeffer- son mining district, this county when the late Arthur COffey, of Buffalo. New York, was manag- ing the Jefferson mines, stopped over in NOgaleS q couple of days on his way to San Antonio, Lower California. Mexico, where he is connected with a big oper- ating mining company. While here he met a number of old friends and acquaintances who pleasantly remembered him, all of whom were pleased to known he is prospering.
 A. A. Hudgin, manager of the City Dairy, was nOrthbOund passenger yesterday morning en route to Tucson on private busi- ness, expecting to return home this evening. Nfr. Hudgin, is one of the most experienced T and his Jersey herd at the City Dairy is among the best in the country. The gentleman's nu- merous friends will learn with genuine regret that he contem- plates leaving Nogales in the very near future, for his old home in Canada, where he owns valuable property which needs his personal attention.
 Hon. Ignacio Bonillas, of No gales Sonora, President of the Congress of Sonora, is here from Hermosillo to enjoy visit with his interesting family. Senator Bonillas is one of Mexi co.'s most prominent, progressive citizens. Being highly educated, he naturally takes great inter est in educational matters in his state, with the result that better and more public schools are constantly being established throughout Sonora, the queen of all the states in the United States of Mexico. As presidente of the city of NogaleS, Sonora, he did much for that city in the way of improvements, his own residence being the finest in the city.
 Thursday morning State Sen ator- elect J. H. Harrison left for the state capital, accompanied by his wife, son and sister-in- law, Miss Hill. Senator Harri son and family made the trip overland, via Florence, by auto mobile driven by himself. To- morrow morning Representative Harry Saxon and wife will de- part for Phoenix to attend the session next Monday, March 18th, of the first state legislature. Messrs Harrison and Saxon are among the states best citizens. and can be depend ed upon to carefully guard the peoples every interest. Both have held responsible public DO sition of trust, which they filled faithfully and well. Being pion eers of Santa Cruz County, they know the needs of this section of the new state, and will not neglect to make themselves heard at the proper time.

Nogales now throughly alive to the fact that she has a host of development possibilities, is los ing no time at all in making the most of every suspicious moment. Witness the activity of the Nogales and Santa Cruz county board of trade which within the past few monhts, has instituted a number of really big enterpris- es for the benefit of the county. One of these is designed to end the Baca Float litigation, and another to secure a government reclamation project for the Santa Cruz valley. There are many others of various degrees of importance, taking a wide range of improvement. The in tereStS of Tucson are so closely intermingled with those of Noga- les that this city can only wish for the enterprising border people the utmost Success.- Citizen.
