Rev. Mr.. OsbOrn's Nursery.

Rev. Mr.. Osborn's nursery, south
Of the courthouse, is doing much
better than was expected. The loss
throughout the nursery will not prob.
ably exceed five per cent, which,
considering the unfavorable condi-
tons last Spring, when the young
shoots were received and set, is sur.
prising, and a much better result than
is usually obtained in old established
nurseries, where climatic and other
conditions are favorable. The apple
and evergreen trees have thrived, and
are now in good condition; while the
catalpa, and especially the elms-
which are considered of slow growth
have more than doubled their hight
this season. The catalpas may not
stand the winter, but the success of
the elm in this climate seems assured.

The First Score for AntelOpe.

John Filshie says that he sold an
undivided one-t third interest in the
Highland Mary, on Antelope Creek,
to William Emery, yesterday. The
consideration was $4,000. This scores
the first mining sale of any Importance
on Antelope, and will give other own
ers, who have been slow to develop
their properties, a fresh impetus that
may prove very beneficial to the in
terests of that district, and themselves
also.
The Highland Mary is said to be an
excellent property, and showing up
splendidly Mr.. Filshie must be cor
rect in his statement, but the report
lacks confirmation. 1t is probable
that he has simply bargained, but has
not closed, the sale.

Will Return Soon.

Mrs. L. J. White, formerly Mrs.
Garner, who left Haley early last
spring for Aspen, Colorado, writes
that she is about to return, and locate
a ranch on Camas Prairie. Mrs.
White has not been we'll for single
day since her arrival at Aspen, and
she has concluded to leave that high
altitude; and as this section offers SUI
perior advantages to any other, i" her
way of thinking, she has decided to
return aud settle on Camas. 1t is
probable that few friends will come
with her. She expects to take the
back track as soon as her health will
permit.

FALL AND SPRING CROPS.
The Latter Seemingly the Best for "a.
mas Prairie.

Inc Latter Seemingly the Best for "a.
mas Prairie.
The experience Of the ranchers on
Camas Prairie this year seems to be
rather unfavorable to fall grain. None
OF the grain sown last fall has done
we'll, while all the spring. sown grain
has thr'ved. While this experience
is too limited to be accepted a. pos
tive indication Of the adaptability Of
the prairie, it is still sufficiently so to
cause ranchers to be more conserya-
tive in this respect than they have
been heretofore. The consequence
will he that while it is probable that,
owing to the increased acreage
brought under cultivation, more grain
will be sown this fall than last, vet
those who put in crop of fall grain
last year will not only not increase
their acreage of it this year, but actu-
ally diminish it.
The acreage Of spring grain next
year will, however, be fully double
what it was this year; and as the Weld
of the ground per acre will, owing to
the experience Of the past seasons,
and the fact that the ground will be
better subdued than heretofore, be
greater, the result will be much more
satisfactory.
An experiment of the greatest i'm
portance to the Prairie was carried on
there this year. A field of some 1000
acres was inclosed by Haley parties,
and at various convenient points within
that field lots of 10 to so acres were
placed in cultivation. As the condi.
tons of growth, ETC., were most unfa.
vorable on one Of these, it is taken
as an example. This is the lot known
as the TINES ranch, where 10 acres
were sown to fall wheat, 10 acres tc
oats, 20 acres to spring wheat, and 1C
acres were planted to walnuts. The
field was hardly looked at after SOW
ing. Not drop of water was turned
Ia any part Of this field, although the
entire crop was put in scotland very
poorly broken at that, since the GROUND
is so rough that sclf-binder can Gu
the grain only with great difficulty
the yield of wheat, as far as can bt
judged from appearances, will b.
quite satisfactory. The fall whea
will yield II to Is bushels per acre
and the spring wheat 20 to 80 bush
els. The yield Of oats will not b.
satisfactory, but that is evidently du'
to the fact that they were sown to-
late, as they were not put in th'
ground until the end of May.
The result of the sprirg-sown whea
in the field above mentioned, as vel
as on County Commissioner Abbott
ranch west of Soldier, and elsewhere
demonstrated beyond a doubt tina
grain can be raised within five or 81,
miles of Soldier, at any rate, withou
irrigation. And if, as is probable, thu
same can be done all over the prairie
settlers need not worry over the alb
sence of water-thcy, in fact, do no
need any except for domestic pur
poses, and this can be obtained any
where, from one end OF the prairie t
the other. within SIX feet of the sur
face.
AS previously stated in these col
umns, the Camas Prairie rancher.
have only been experimenting, so far
but now that they know what to SOW
they will begin farming in good earn
est.

THE WALKER OPERA HOUSE.
Probability. that Mr.. Fred. e.
Wright will Take the Manage.
ment of This Elegant Place
of Amusement.

During our interview yesterday with
Mr.. Fred f. Wright, manager of the
minstrels, the conversation turned upon
the management Of the Walker Opera
House. Mr.. Wright informed the re-
porter that he had been offered the man
agement of this place OF amusement, and
that he had seriously considered accept
ing the office; in fact, if Mr.. Haverly will
release him from his engagement, of
which contract there remains but six
months unexpired, he would shortly re-
turn and take charge of the house. We
hope such will be the case, and for more
reasons than one. In the first place, it
is desirable that this costly and
well-appointed temple of amuse-
ment should have as manager a
man of professional experience
and personal acquaintance with
other managers, actors and companies.
This MIR. Wright has. He is also gentle
man by nature and scholar by travel
and education. He takes no stock in
"snide" shows and will not trife with
ANYTHING that is not frst-class. He. has
been eight years with Haverly, and, being
on the best terms with him, insures the
appearance at the Walker of all Haverly's
attractions sent out on the road. We
think the Walkers will do wisely if they
can get Mr.. Wrightefor manager to install
him. The public would have reason to
rejoice and the house itself would take its
legitimate place as one of the most popular,
as it is now one of the most elegant,
theatres in the West.

" THREE OF A KIND. /.
SalSbury,s TroubadOurs at the The.
atre Last Night-An Amusing
Entertainment.

Notwithstanding the strong attendance
at the Opera House, there was splendid
audience at the Theatre last night to wit
ness the opening of Salsbury's Trouba-
dours in their farcical comedy, "Three of
a Kind" Although the piece. like many
others, is without any particular plot,
unlike many others, it. is full of fun,
action, situations and crisp and sparkling
dialogue. Nate Salisbury was very anus
ing as Jack Potts, his songs, rotations
and s'gags" receiving much of the ap-
plause, the soliloquy, 'To draw or not
draw" being one of the taking bits. The
vivacious acting OF Miss Nellie McHenry
as Dolly Eastwood, the lady boarder,
secured very liberal applause. The bal
ance of the performers were fully up to
the standard, the piece was nicely set on
the stage, but the music was not the
finest in the land" This evening the
Troubadours will repeat "Three of a
Kind" and tomorrow evening will APP
pear in an entire new bill.

At the 0pera House.

There was splendid attendance at the
Walker Opera House last night to see the
Minstrels in their third performance. As
on the previous night, the show was first
class, and thoroughly enjoyed by the
auditors. The neatest acts were the Cragg
fanaily's acrobatic feats, and the Pythian
Knights dress parade. 1t is safe to say
that it is many day since more artistic
and prettier thing has been seen than this
last mentioned piece. 1t was well done,
and Mr.J German, the inventor, is en-
titled to great credit for the originality
of it. ~
The Minstrels 90 East from here, The
company has done good business during
this engagement, which not only shows
that ssblack face" entertainments are not

rate company atthe Walker Opera House,
the public will patronize the place, with
out preference for the other house.

Bryant and His Friends.

Such is the title of volume of sketches
from the pen of General James Grant
Wilson, which we have received from G.,
ii. Parsons & Co. The author has given
full biographical notes of the chief writ.
ers who, in beginning the career of let.
tiers IN what was known as the " Knicker-

lork-that is, about the first fifty wears
OF this century-were pioneers of Ameri-
can literature at large. William Cullen
Bryant is taken as the centre around
which the others are grouped, because he
was among the very earliest, and became
and remained the most eminent of the
brilliant circle. The more complete
sketches are of Bryant, Paulding, Irving.
