has been arranged for the evening.
Mayor L. V. Ray will deliver an ad

say after which Mr. Morford will pre
sent to her the diploma. There will be
music by the school orchestra and
songs by the school. Two short plays
will be presented by the High School

dance. Everyone is invited to the ex

GREAT FALLS, May 20—Half a
dozen mansions of forty years ago,
paneled still with the chipped and
marred remnants of expensivv woods
with bits of stained giass adhering to j
the windows and the bars of old land- \
scape gardening imaging into the sur- i
rounding prairie two miles from this
city, are to be tunned by order of the |
state fire marshal.
These decaying relics of finance and |
romance of the early days in Montana
will be destroyed at the same time
that the stack of the cS;l silver smel
ter which was the excuse for their ex
istence is dynamited.
Since !Sb3, when silver ore from
Canada, northern Idaho and the long
worked-out silver mines of Montana
ceased to flow to the prairie smelter,
the mansions were deserted.
The old three-story brick buildings,
in exterior and interior the equal of
the most elegant clubs of the Atlan
tic seaboard in those days, were erect
ed by the promoters of Montana’s first
smoker. In them were entertained cap
italists of New York and Boston, brot
to the place for the purpose of secur
ing investments.
