SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Great Falls, Nov. I2.-The pretty sex
tettt OF "Florodora" will not dazzle the
youths and baldheads Of Great Falls during
the present tour unless John Cort OF Seat
tie, the manager of the Northwest
ern theatrical syndicate, braves the
opposition Of the Great Falls Minis
terial association and plays the com
pany here in the face OF direct information
TO stop the performance.
The gentlemen OF the cloth are not oh
jectng to the character OF the show
What they don't like is the fact that
Manager W. S. Fray OF the Great Falls
Opera house booked the aggregation Of
pretty maidens for next Sunday evening
Sunday performances ut the opera house
have been frowned on in the past and the
ministers do not propose to yield a point
during the present season.
Rev. Mr.. Agar, on behalf of the asso-
citation Of ministers, waited upon Manager
frary today and served formal notice that
II the management attempted to give the
performance next Sunday evening both he
and the managers Of the show would be
arrested under section $50 OF the penal
code.
Manager Frary saw the prospects OF
large box Office sale shattered and he was
loath 10 call the engagement off. Mentally
condemning blue laws and purianical Gus
toms, he wired John Cort for instructions.
IT is up to Cort to say whether the opera
will be given here. The company will
probably agree to this, for If they were ar
rested they might have to remain here sew
eral days to fight the case, thus losing
other engagements.

work Of lowering the tools, horses and
mules has been finished and the men are
being put back to work as fast as possible.
II may be a day or two longer before

essary to have the men at their posts.
Great Falls Going.
Over at Great Falls a large amount of
ore is on hand and work has started up.
Not only is the industrial activity felt
OH the hill, but in every line OF business.
Clerks who had been discharged OH ac-
count OF the shutdown have been recalled
i'll several of the big stores and the gem
eral feeling is one OF confidence.
There are few idle men in town at
present, where but few days ago thou
sands walked the streets. The corners
where the men usually congrcgate are all
but deserted today Those who wish to
work have reported for duty and have
been assigned TO the several shifts.
Many OF the men who left town under
the impression that work would not be re-
sumed for several months will doubtless
return TO their old positions.
Reports Cheering.
From every part of the state reports are
most encouraging. Towns that were de-
pendent upon the mining and milling in

SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Great Falls, Nov. Ia.-Judge Leslie in
the district court today decided the case
of David Leadbettor against ]. P. Fitz-
patrick which involved q small amount of
money but large principle.
The plaintiff is the Neihart constable
and the defendant the justice of the peace.
Some time ago the justice of the peace,
during trouble with his constable, appoint
ed another man special constable and gave
him some criminal papers to serve.
Leadbettor sued for his fees and the
question involved was the right of Judge
Fitzpatrick to appoint special constable
when there was already one regularly
elected.
Judge Leslie decides he cannot and holds
that Leadbettor is entitled to his fees.

Far more than Panama ever dreamed Of

will give up the movement; even eternal
