 Friends of Colonel N. J. Pur- cell, poet, mining man and prince
 of good fellows, will be glad to learn that he Is enjoying eX cellent health at his beautiful
 southern home in Hillsboro. Vir-
 ginia. Colonel Purcell is gen
 eral manager of Buena Fortuna Gold Mining Company, owning
 splendid properties in the Pinto
 mountain, thirty miles south of
 the international line. During
 the development of the mines
 several years ago, the colonel
 made his headquarters in No
 gales. His friends hope he'll
 return to Nogales in the near

 Pope Calderon, a prominent
 young HermOsillO business man,
 accompanied by a couple of friends, arrived in the city Thursday evening, overland by carriage. after having been on
 the road since Monday morning.
 Monday nine miles north of Her. mosillo, CalderOn and his party
 met Fred H. Moore, in charge of I. B. Bowers auto on his way to the capital city. The auto was being pulled by four mules, Fred being at the steering wheel. A telegram from MT Bowers states that Moore and his four in hand arrived safe, without having come in contact with the red faggers.
 With bag and baggage, Dr. w. c. Mabry, the well known Imu- ris, Sonora, physician and sur geon, arrived in the city the forepart of the week, and will continue on to California, where he and his family will make their home in future. The de parture from this section of Dr. Mabry will be deeply regretted. He will be greatly missed by many people here and in Sonora. He said he had stuck it out in Imuris during the Madero re volution, and last years small pox epidemic, but does not care to remain through the Orozco, and any other revolutions that may follow.
 That the Orozco rebels from undesirable citizens in that state, is evidenced by the way loyal citizens there are taking up arms to defend their homes and fami- lies from the strangers. Two i hundred of the best citizens of Sonora, have volun- teered to give battle to the red l flagglerS in case they attempt to | enter that city. More than a thousand REAL MEN have done | the same in Hermosillo, and from every town in the state comes the good news that red flaggers | will pay dear for all the damage | they do in our sister state, which | desires peace more than any thing else.
 This week another mining deal | of great importance to Santa Cruz county, was closed, when | the Copper Queen Company of | Bisbee, took over from Ed. Mo the Bradford group of | mines, situated about one mile | from BlOxton station on the No gales = Benson railroad. The | mines are copper producers, and | for some time MT. Mcfarland, 1 who bonded them from the Ferry has been shipping high grade ore to the customs shelter. Recently the property was in spected personally by Professor in company with his head mine expert, and this week the deal with Mcfarland was made. The considera tion was not made public. This means another big company with unli- nited capital at work near home.
