Committee Adds Finishing Touches
for July 4th Celebration.
MANY ENTRIES MADE
Contest Centers on Pie and
Creased Pig.

From reports coming in, there are
indications Elk, City's celebration on
July End, 3rd and 4th will be the largest
attended event ever held in the mining
districts of central Idaho. People on
the outside are taking note of the pre-
parations being made; there are many
who for a long time have promised
themselves a trip into the gold mining
districts, and they are just going to cut
loose this summer and take an outing
in the mountains at a time when the
metropolis is prepared to entertain and
show everybody good time. Grange
vile and Sites are not going. to cele-
brate, and each promises Elk City big
delegation. AS far west as Cottonwood
and Vollmer they are coming and all
the towns along the Clearwater liver,
including Lewiston, are to be repre-
sented.

bition of the national game. The mirth-
provoking and side-splitter events, such
as rolling peanut, kicking a mouse in
the face, catching CREASED pig, climb
ing CREASED pole and eating pie are
getting more conte stants than can be
cared for. 1t is wonderful the number
who think they can throw half-nelson
on a feet-footed' and we'll CREASED
porker, and hold him there just like he
did in his days down on the farm. And
there are just as many who think they
belong in first division when it comes to
eating pie. In fact the real contests at
the big celebration center around the
pig and the pie. There are several
entries now in the pie contest, includ-
ing an ex-merchant, saloon man, a
school boy, an editor, a "sour dough"
prospector, a darky and a chink.
Nearly all of these are in the hands of
their seconds and are to fast from June
27, and will be salted and watered on
the morning of July End. This pie con-
test is strictly an amateur affair, and
to date a surveyor and two other men
from Buffalo Hump and one man from
Salmon river have been barred by the
judges from participating in the event.
You can drown your sorrows in the
joy of the occasion in Elk City, July
End, 3rd and 4th.
