rne County Convention to Meet wednes. day at l O'Clock. P. M.-The Pro- ceedIngs win iss Quite
 Exciting.

All of the wards of the city held conventions last night (Monday) to select delegates to the County Dem ocratic convention to be held Wednesday, June 10, which will elect delegates and instruct the same to the State Democratic con vention to be held at Little Rock on Wednesday, the l7th day of June.
 The ward conventions passed off in an orderly and harmonious man ner. There was considerable rival ry between the adherents of the vari- ons candidates for State office especially between the followers of Judges Bum and Bryant-but this was of friendly and honorable nature, and there are no sore wounds or serious disappointments among the unterrified Democracy of Jefferson county today.
 Three wards instructed for Dan Jones for Governor-the 1st, End and 4th-but the Third ward, by an overwhelming majority, refused to instruct for the famous bolter.
 The race for Chief Justice, which was the most animated of all the contests, resulted in more or less of ''dog fall'-each candidate carry ing two wards. Bryant carried the First aud Third wards with total lvote of l5 in the county convention,
