Against the Removal of the
U. P. Express Office.
THE MINES AT GARNET
DR.. MuSSigbrOd Satisfied With His
PrOpectS--Exercises OF the
College of Montana.
Deer Lodge. June IA.


Considerable comment is now being
made upon the action of a representative
of the Northern Pacific Express npan
who visited here early last week. The
office is nicely located uptown. and is
presided over by J. G. Shaubut, q most
obliging gentleman. The representative
has under consideration the remove of
the office to the depot, and our
people-the business people to a man,
have expressed their disaDprOval of the
change and have forwarded to the COM
pany at st. Paul their disapproval and
have given good and sufficient reasons
why the office should remain uptown.
The patronage accorded the p
here is exccllent-it exceeds that Of any
other town of the same size in this coun-
try, and our people feel that their request
SHOULD met with a satisfactory decision.
We believe that it will. for right is right.
DR.. Peter Mussisbrod is in town from
Garnet and is being entertained by
friends. The gentleman is one of the
men in Montana tina believes a man can
make himself, and being Of strong char
acter and possessing excellent traits, DR..
Mussigbrod is happy and pleased With
the world and its resources. Certainly he
has been very fortunate in his mining
and milling operations. Hc began as a
"pilgrim' and has come to the front in
a manner that would do justice to many
OF the old manipulators. and while he is
pleased at his own success, the gentle
man is also glad that others are bone
flied by his success. Dr.. M~ussigbrod's
visits in Deer Lodge are always pleasant
as he is a most companioIable and en-
PERTAINING conversationalist.
The commencement exercises of the
College of Montana. just ending it's 2Oth
year of faithful work, frausht with good
results, was begun last Sunday evening
at the Presbyterian church, when the
Rev. j. c. Coleman preached the bacca-
laureate sermon. being greeted by a very
large and appreciatiVe congregation. The
church was beautifully decorated with
flowers and potted plants, and 4 special
and pleasing musical programme was ar
ranged for the occasion.

lie church begins tomorrow (Thursday).

every morning and evening.
The lady white minstrels," home tai
ent, will in two or three weeks appear
before the Deer Lodge public. A party
OF children are being taught some catchy
rag-time songs, as well as to rag. and
altogether it will make a fine entertain
ment. The picaninnys will have their
faces BACKED, but the ladies will have
theirs whitened, going to the other ex-
IRENE. Miss Bette Williams has been
chosen for middle woman, and well.
that's about all we know about it now.

1t up, which means success. and the pro-
ceeds are to be applied to the Episcopal
