The Celery Crop Sold.

There we're forty acres of celery grown
in the immediate vicinity of jamestown
last year, and gardeners report that the
entire crop has been sold long since, and
could have been sold twice over.
Jamestown celery has come in direct
competition with the famous Kalamazoo
plant and has been in every case pre-
fsrred to the Michigan product. The
quality OF the celery raised here is
becoming known all over the country.
The quick growth of the plant and the
peculiar prope rites of the soil, render the
stalks unusually tender, brittle and we'll
favored. In most localities the celery
retains slight taste OF the ground, or
just enough to impair the fine flavor of
this splendid table accessory. Ip this
valley, however. under the combined
influences of soil and climate, all objec-
tions that can be cited by the most
fastiilous Eplcure are removed. James
town celery, freshly iced, is delicacy
indeed. It can be eaten with relish,
from the root to the leaf, and the con-
sumption of each fragrant stalk only
begets an appetite for more.
Gardeners are raising the dwarf vari-
etv, known as the White Plume, more
extensively, each year. 1t does not keep
as we'll in the winter as the large stalk
varieties, but is more tender and deli
cstely favored. The plant is ready for
the table in August.
The shipments have been unusually
early this year, the markets of the west
ern states requiring tho most Of the sup
ply. the greater part of which has been
sold for 20 cents dozen punches. The
present price is SO cents dozen, but the
crop is all disposed Of. One complaint
of buyers Is the excessive express charges
on goods Of this character, sent long dis
tances. The establishment of fast re-.
frigerator tralns,on the Northern Pacific,
TO make nearly the same time as pass
enger trains, will greatly stimulate the
demand for jamestown celery. at Pacific
coast points, where, in spite of cost of
shipment, most of the crop has been sold.
The soil of Washington does not give
the desired flavor to the plant, aud the
growth ls too rank, also.

Death OF an Old Settler.

Mr.. Charles Lees died Thursday morn
ing, Of lagrlppe, at the home of his son
IL miles north OF this city on the James
river. Deceased was 81 years of age,
and had lived the past twelve years in
Stutsman county coming over from
Scotland 10 1880 to make his home With
the son who survives him, Mr.. James
Lees. we'll known and highly respected
farmer. The latter located in this sec
ton in 1872. He was here yesterday
making arrangements for the funeral,
which was held Sunday afternoon at
the farm. None but kind words are
spoken Of the deceased, and the CON-
munity feels the loss of an honest, manly
man-one possessing traits Of character
that commanded the respect and friend
ship Of every acquaintance.

st. Paul Wasn't In 1t.

A special dispatch says Chicago was
chosen as the place for holding the next
democratic national convention, on the
18th ballot. Milwaukee received eighteen
votes on this ballot, against twenty
seven for the Worlds fair city, and the
balance scattering. No great surprise Is
felt over the result, however, as st. Paul's
chances we're never considered the best,
and Chicago has been generally looked
upon az q winner in case she wanted the
convention. Milwaukee put up the best
fight and made good showing, but failed
by considerable majority. 1t was a
contest OF beer against wind, and wind
won the battle. The selection will, how
ever, probably give very general satisfac-
ton.
St. Paul had seven votes on the first
ballot, the same number on the second,
nine on the third, and 13 on the fourth.
In the next eleven ballots constant
loss was sustained, until the last, when
St. Paul quit with but three votes to her
credit. New York, San Francisco, De
trolt, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Kansas
City, and Des Moines we're the other un-
successful applicants.
Tuesday, June 21st, just two weeks later
than the republican convention Will as
semble at Minneapolis, was determined
upon as the date for holding the conven.

EN yEMA COUNTY.

Written for the Prescott Journal-Miner.l
 We left the Congress mine Friday morning and drove to Cullen's Wells, forty miles distant, arriving there about half-past six. MT. Drew is keeping the station there at present, and is watering about one hundred head of cattle from his well, which contains about 40 feet of water, and is about 260 feet deep.
 Mir. Drew informed us that Mckay & Davis, of Tucson, are intending to put up fve-stamp mill on a mine which they own in the Harqua Hala mountains, just back of his place.
 Mr. Wilson IS also watering 8 small bunch of cattle from a well at Mes quite station, on the old Wickenburg and Ehrcnberg freight road. He has a new Gem windmill on the ground and expects to have it up and pump ing water in few days,
 Saturday night we camped at the old Desert Station, which is situated in the center of what is known as Rangers Plain; very old and dilapi- dated looking place it is, too. A few of the old adobe walls are standing yet, but most of them are nothing but heaps of earth. The well has a little water in it, and is about l20 feet deep, the water being unfit for man to drink, but answers the purpose for animals.
 The next day we drove to Tyson s Well, which is owned at present by NIT. Mike Welz. We found things there rather lively. MT. Welz has several very good gold claims in the PlomoSa mountains. There is an ex- pert there at present examining the mines, and he expects, to dispose Of one or two of them in a short time.
 Mir Anton Haegle also has some very promising copper and lead pros poets, and is making preparations for developing them as soon as possible.
 There is considerable excitement there just now over the Yum Yum mine, owned by Messrs. Hamilton, Wilson, Agard and Baker. They have recently taken out some very rich ore, some of it running up into the thousands. When we arrived there they had just finished putting through an arastra, three tons of the ore from which they cleaned up $500. We saw the bullion at Mir. Lard,s on the Colorado river, Mir. Agard being on his way to Yuma with it. At pres ent the ledge is small and inclined to be somewhat broken, but there is every indication of coming together in well defined ledge lower down. It is about pine miles from Tyson's Well, in he ShoIla mountains.
