Deer Lodge, May 80, 1899.
The miserable weather that came III
in advance of Memorial day was a sore
disappointment to the different omn
tees that worked so hara to make Tic
occasion q success. Late Monday even
ing after a fierce storm it became eVldehl
that none of the exercises could be helo
outside. and in accordance with the re-
quest of the executive committee MI IL.
A.. Smurr had bills distributed an
nouncing that the exercises would take
place at Cottonwood hall at O'CLOCK TO-
day. Many outside visitors were in town
and the hall was crowded The pro-
gramme as given in a previous issue "
the Inter Mountain was carried OUT 70
the letter. The hall presented a patriotlc
appearance decked IN the prlliian.
national colors and the address or d.
Martin maintained that gentlemans
reputation as a patriot and orator. All
of the different organizations OF the Guy
were out in uniform and aside from It's
excellent music on the street the Deer
Lodge band rendered most credltably. a
number of selections in the hall. Inc
choir was praised by every one present
for it's share in the programme, for II
there is anything that Deer Lodge is
proud of it is it's thorough vocalists.
