What the pretty mornings glory can do when 1t sets out to be nuisance Is described by California correspondents of the Baltimore Sun. In the heart of one of the richest sec tions of San Joaquin county are the ''norn- ing glory lands" They are ovsrrun with these beautiful oonyolvuli, trailing on the ground and interswined into an impsnetrable mating. Locking from short distance 1t is a vast carpet of variegatsd flowers that never cease to bloom. No aowery lawn in the world can compare with It for winsome witchsry. Yet It Is hateful and distressing to land owners, and supreme barrennsss to the far mers. In this climate, where growth never rests, all efforts to get rid of the beautiful pest havs been of no effect It never dries enough to ba fired out. Some Chinamen, tempted by the extreme fertility of the soil, freedom from rent and confidence in their own patience and perseverance, undertook to clear carefully bagging the vines and every seed they found. In December. the crop being narrowed, the gentle rain sprouted 1t and rich harvest was assured. But one morning, after a very growing shower, the whole face of the earth was covered, grain and all, with morning glories more Iuxuriant than before The Chinanen had, to make sure carried In sacks to distance far away every vestige of seed, and bonfired the whole. But this SCOUT ing only gave new life and spread to the flow CTS. The land Is now condemned to everlast- ing barrenness, and any one who can reclaim it can get it for song.

Neyada's First Nugget.

Neyada's first nugget was mined with
n butchers knife. John Orr started
across the plains in lSi0. The roads
were bad the weather was worse, and he
was obliged to remain through the win
ter at Salt Lake. In April he resumed
his journey. He Ind partner named
Nick Kelly, after whom kellys ravine IL
named, and III the company was William
Prouse, now living in Nurb City, about
forty miles southeast of Salt Lake.
Prouse had worked in mines before gold
was discovered in Colonn, and was n
good prospector. One day the tram
stopped on the edge Of what is now
known MS Gold canon, near the Carson
river, to let the animals feed on some
bunch grass found growing among the
sage brush. Prouso ut noontime took
milk pan, and going down to the g1lch
began washing dirt, IN few minutes
getting color TO the value of n few cents.
Orr then named the place Gold Canon.
The train soon after resumed travel,
going to the head of Carson valley.
There they met a party OF seven, who
had left the train Mt the sink of the Hum
boldt, intending TO go in advance to Cal
ifornia and select good locations for the
remainder of the party. They had been
unable to CROSS the country and had
been los, in the snow III the mountains
four or five days, unable to find the
divide to Hangtown. 4 stay in Carson
for three weeks followed, when Orr,
Kelly and several others returned to
Gold Canon and resumed prospecting.
Kelly and Orr went up the canon until
n little fork was reached, when work was
begun. The party had few tools, and
Orr had nothing but "A knife. While
Kelly was working he noticed very mar
row place at the fork, where the water
barely covered slab Of slate rock. Idly
he examined it, and noticed small crew
ice near the edge, drove the knife into 1t,
breaking out piece. The water run
ming over it washed away the underlying
dirt aud in few seconds he discovered
a gold nugget where the rock had COW
cred it. IT was quickly removed, and
afterward found to weigh $3.50. This
was on the LIST Of June, 1850, nearly
thirty years ago. Prospecting was con
tinued, and though dust was found III
several places throughout the canon,
Orr's was the only nugget He still has
it in his possession, the first ever found
in Nevada.

ciaim that the state convention was comnetent

snch right IN convention as AGAINST district
instructions. The Utah case is discussed more
utlehy' put the conclusion is reached in favor of
the contestants. The West Virginia case il
considered with the same result Tho renorts
are differently signed. Some of the minority
90 not sign the report ON each case. Their
conclusions are that the regularly elected and
sitting members should retain their seat that
the others should not.
After considerable discussion over the two re-
ports, i was finally agreed to take recess until

The convention reasSombled nj 1888. The
Louisiana delegates took their seats. The chair
announced that the question was ON the ndop-
ton OF SO much OF the report of the committee
on credentials as related 10 the state Of Ala
bama.
Mr.. Harrison, of Indiana-Before entering
upon the discussion Of this question, | think the
convention should fix some limitation of time
for ITS consideration. lApplauso,l II was agreed
that each side i'll the Alabama contested case
have 20 minutes. Mr.. Congor spoke in favor of
the majority report, allowing Rapier to take the
seat. MIR. Turner followed ON the other side.
Gen. Tracy of New York supported Mr. Iur-
]
majority report. Mr., Conger moved as a sub
stitute for the pending motion on the adop-
ton Of the minority report, that Mr.. Rapior
be admitted as q delegate, but withdrew It.
The motion TO substitute was lost, and the re-
port of the committee adopted. One hour was
allowed for discussion in the Illinois contested
| cases. A motion that the minority districts be
substituted tor the majol1tyrepot was lost, and
the roll of states was demanded. The roll on
the adoption o! tho minority report on the second
district of Illinois, m place of the majority. re-
suited IN favor OF 3S3; against 3s7.
Finally, MI the coltcstiug Illinois delegates,
whose admission was recommended 10y the COM

thermore agreed by the committee that no ac-
ton should be taken until the views of the
minority were ready. Mr.. Frye asked Chairman
Garfield II this was correctly stated. Gen.
Garfield, upon rising, WAS warmly applauded,
but refused to take the platform in answer to
calls. He said vote taken upon Cen.
Sharps suggestion to delay action upon the ma
jority report until the minority was ready. The
committee would not, therefore, report, but
would await the pleasure Of the convention and
obey its instructions.
Mr.. Frye then withdrew his motion and moved
to adjourn until o'clock.
Mr.. ConklngMr. President, as oGe member
of the convention intend to vote for this reso-
luton, but my conscience would not permit my
doing so until after l congratulate our friends

which must stir the patriotism of every delegate

The convention reassembled at $50 p NJ.
