An attempt was made Friday night to
get the Red Lodge board OF trade to-
gether again for the purpose Of consider
ing proposition to aid the patrons OF
the new Morris postotfice in maintain13a &
private mail route for the first three
months, the postal department having
stipulated that the route to the new
office should be self-sustaining for that
length of time. Inasmuch as the busi

al in securing the establishment of the
office and the route it was thought that
they should pay at least half Of the ex

The Masquerade Ball Given BY the Band Boys
Was Largely Attended.

The masquerade ball given in the OPP
era house last Saturday night under the
auspices of the Miners City band was
we'll attended and was, withal, one Of
the most enjoyable dances given in Red
lodge for some time. The band is u
musical organization Of which Red
Lodge is Justly proud, and this probably
accounted for the crowded condition of
the hail. inasmuch as apparently every
one wished to show their appreciation OF
the efforts of the band boys by attending
their ball.
There were a number Of original and
unique costumes, with the customary
quota of clowns, school girls, flower girls
and other characters. Although the
floor could by no means accommodate
those who attempted to dance, llseemed
to enjoy themselves to their hearts con
tent. Masks were removed about il
o'clock, the privileges Of the floor were
extended to those who were not in cos
tune and dancing was continued until
an early hour the following morning.
Music for the dancers was furnished by
the whole band, which added consider
ably to the enjoyment Of the evening.

Yesterday Was Quiet Holiday Which
Will Be Long Remembered By the
People Of Red Lodge.
EVERYBODY WAS HAPPY
Citizens Of This City and County Had
Many Reasons for Being Of a
Thankful Spirit.

a perfect day and feeling of content
edness in the hearts of the people made
yesterdays observance Of Thanksgiving
an occasion long to be remembered in
this city. It can be truly said that while
the nation at large IS prosperous, q
greater degree Of prosperity prevails in
eastern Montana and iii Red Lodge than
in the majority of places, and while the
Injunction Of the president and the
governor to suspend for the day the
ordinary affairs of life and attend place
Of worship to give verbal expression Of
gratitude to a bountiful Providence, was
not in the majority Of instances carried
out to the letter in this favored city, the
most Of the business houses were closed,
weary clerks and mechanics We're given
a holiday. and there were but few who
didn't feel that they had ample cause to
be thankful for the many blessings
which kind nature. supplemented by toll
and endeavor on their own parts, had
bestowed upon them.
This season is assuredly a season of
plenty. As result of bountifnl har-
vests and careful husbandry the gran
cries Of Carbon county are filled to over
flowing. A long crop of wool, which
commanded a good price, has added to
the credit side of the sheepman's bank
book, and cattlemen are daily shipping fat
cattle to eastern markets and coming
home we'll pleased with their margin of
profit. The merchants Of the city have
been favored with brand of prosperity
against which they cannot complain,
while he with only his daily labor to put
upon the market is receiving wages
worthy of his hire. Here employment
may be had for the asking, and want is
unknown.
II IL was this condition Of affairs which
made Red Lodges observance Of Thanks
giving noiseless celebration in which
all joined. The tables which ornamented
the homes of the citizens Of the com
munity-whether these homes were the
homes of the miners or of the substan
tial business men-Were heavily ladcned
The traditional turkey, with cranberry
sauce on the side, was there, and tn,
day was one Of feasting. Small dinnel
parties were numerous. Some were II
honor of the family reunion which ha
; become such a popular Thanksgiving
custom, while others were merely tn
gatherings Of friehds incident to th'
5 business and social relations of life.
In the evening ball was given nnde
) the auspices of the Daughters of Re
) bekah, Morning Star lodge, which wa
5 largely attended and proved to be one o
the enjoyable dances OF the season. ]
5 was not until an early hour this morn
5 ing that dancing ceased and the last c
; the merrymakers Wended their wa
: home, closing the rounds Of pleasure IN
cident to the celebration Of a nation
Thanksgiving day.

C. Schumacher & Co. said yesterday In their re-
view of the foreign exchange market:
After a further general decline In exchange duriny
the first two or three days of the present week the
market has shown decided Improvement durtps,
the last days Demand sterling rose from w
Q4S7A on Monday and Tuesday to 4s73.G4 s1iL on IN
Thursday and Friday. Even sixty and ntnetx
days sterling followed the movement, owing to a
simultaneous slight decline In the discount rate In
London. Continental exchange though also Some
what firmer in tone, shows no quotable advance In
prices owing to a proportionate slight advance In
the sterling rates In Paris and Berlin. The ad-
vance must be attributed to requirements in cover
OF returning stocks and bonds from abroad. Per
haps the small receipts OF commercial bills this
week also responsible for part of the weeks
advance. If the actual receipts very small
the offerings for future delivery also showed a
noticeable decrease. probably owing to the late ad-
vance and subsequent fluctuations in the grain
markets. which have rendered the legitimate ex-
port business very difficult AS the summer season
advances our banks and bankers showing an
increasing disposition to draw their long bills on
various2parts of Europe but find themselves hamp-
cred by their inability to sell their offerings as
readily in former years. owing to the narrow
and limited discount markets in London and Ber-
