able diversion for British adven-

for English lovers of cham

pagne was purchased for syndi-
Gates operating off New York,

ground had it not been for his belt,
The unconscious man was lowered to

MAMMOTH JULY FOURTH CROWD
EXPECTED IN N0CALES SUNDAY

The greatest Fourth Of July
crowd ever in Nogales Is expect
ed to be here today. Annually
hundreds Of out Of town people
flock to Nogales to spend the
Fourth, but the number here in
former years is expected to be far
surpassed today and tomorrow.
Two things cause the prediction
to be freely made that q mammoth
crowd will be here for this years
Fourth of July. They are the
staging Of the Bob LawsonJack
Lynch prize fight in Nogales, So
nora, Sunday afternoon, and the
fact that Monday is a holiday
since the Fourth this year falls
on Sunday. Monday being holi-
day, joy seekers have the opper-
tunity of spending two days on the
border.

It has been rumored that the

road, will take away from the port
of Nogales, quite a lot of gar
banjo shipments, but brokers here
are somewhat doubtful of that and
are optimistic, because they feel
that launching, wharfage, and 9th
er facilities at Yavaros are in
dequate to handle the garbanzo
shipments. It is believed that
heavy shipments Of garbanzos will
continue to pass through Nogales,
probably all shipments consigned
to American and Cuban points. It
is estimated that $4,000 bags will
pass through here during the ship

performers, excellent riding; and
mirth-provoking clowns, made up the

Efforts To Secure For Him A Car.

Five This Summer.

So efficient has been the work at
life saving of young Elisha v. Bunt-
ing, member of the U. S. Coast Guard
Station at Ocean City, Nd, that eff
forts are in progress to secure for
him Carnegie medal from the Hero
Commission at Pittsburgh, Pa.
The fact that a representative from
the Commission was at Ocean City
last week ,lends color to the story
that Mr.. Bunting will receive the
recognitions he so richly deserves. :.
This young man has rescued no
er than five persons from the
Beach this summer, one of whom was
Mrs. Heals, wife of the man drown
ed Sunday of last week. Bunting
probably would have saved Mr.. Heal
is had the young guardsman arrived
in time.
On Friday morning of last week, I.
S. Mumford, Justice of the Peace
at Ocean City, was rescued, when he
went out for an early morning dip.
On August 9th Mr.. Bunting rescued
three persons, all at the risk of his
own life.
He has been in the service for four
years and is a native of Ocean City.
He stands fifth in the service, and is
highly spoken of.
1t is evident he is richly deserving
the honor of medal, and all his
friends will delight to see him receive
the merited reward.
