The music was fine and the spec
tators many.
The prizes were awarded to Mrs
Arthur Satran, who, masked as
Dutch Cleanser > was highly
original, and Earl Bartlett, who
was costumed as a swell coon, both
of whom sustained their characters
amazingly well. The prizes were
gold watch fobs on black ribbon.
Honorary mention should also
be made of the laughable hit of of
the evening, V. A. (Red) Sather
and Miss Hazel Van Arsdale, who
were the exact counterparts of
THE Newlyweds' of universal
fame, and of course "Snookums'
was along, too. They created a
whole evening of mirth and merri-
ment by their well-acted personifi-
cation of the now popular married
couple and their tantalizing, idol
lied baby. Their masks came from
New York and were made TO order.
The grand march was led by Mr..
and Mrs. Doonan. The dancing
was kept up until past three in the
morning, when all agreed the whole
affair had been great success
from every standpoint.

.SN0WSH0E GOES
TO RECEIVER
Believed to Be Temporary Arrangement and Work Will
Continue on Big Silver-Lead Property.

The Montana Smelling company
commonly known as the Snowshoe
properties, has gone into the hand,
of receiver, owing to compli.
Gated state OF affairs, of which it is
unnecessary to speak at this time
The Snowshoe is the big silver
lead mine of the camp, and within
the past two weeks made a strike
of fine shipping ore on the 5oo-foot
level. There can be no doubt of
the value of the property and it is
generally felt the receivership will
be short lived.
In the meantime the mine will
continue to be operated under the
management and direction of w.
F. Jennlson, who was appointed
receiver yesterday by Judge Erick-
son, upon the application of a num-
Der of creditors. The appointment
is good one, Mr.. Jennison being
a man of much knowledge of min
ing affairs, of we'll known honesty,
level headed and thoroughly famil.
lar with local conditions.
He sent up Mine Superintendent
Wilson with crew this morning
to the mine to pump out the water
and put it in working condition.
Messrs. Booth & Maiden, attor-
neys for Receiver Jennison, and
also for some of the creditors of
the Montana Smelling company,
interviewed by a representative of
the Herald, make the following
statement
Owing to complications of
legal character, which had resulted
from the transfer of property of
one corporation to another, the
Montana Smelling company were
unable to meet the obligations in

been able to learn, were all salts

TROY PEOPLE SAY
MISUNDERSTANDING
IN BRIDGE CROSSING
Visitors During Week Say No
Quarrel With R.R. Company
and Scout Idea Of Road TAX
ing Hand in the Injunction.

Troy people who have been in
Libby during the past week all
scout the idea of the Great North
ern being back of the injunction
suit against roads and bridges or
that the change of location of the
bridge at that point has anything
to do with it.
They declare there are no differ
enCes between the town and the
company over any crossing to
reach the bridge !; that they have
merely requested a crossing with
out insisting upon any particular
point, that feature being up to the
company. The wrong inpres sion
which prevails, they say, probably
arose over the fact that the Troy
ToWnslte company is about to plat
some acreage near the river and
has asked for crossing which will
pass through the heart of the
yards. Moreover, they say the
election proclamation described the
proposed bridge to be "at" Troy
and not mile below the town,

Laziness a Disease,

Laziness should be regarded as dis
ease when no organic cause of i'll
health exists, and people should be
compelled to get through their allotted
work as they would have to take their
powders of quinine If they were suf-
fering from influenza. There are
scores of self plying loafers on the
sick list of every doctor who need, not
drugs, not treatment" of any sort,
but simply work. To prescribe rest
cures for this type is directly melting
them to a lazy life, when their dissat-
Isfaction, general seediness and lack
of vitality are the direct outcome of
having too little to do already. 1t is
not more rest that they require, but
compulsory, methodical, regulated work
six days out of seven. Work Is the
best medicine in the world, the ideal
stimulant, because it leaves no Ill eff
fects.-London Express.
