SILVER PLUME
Making Great Preparation for Its
Grand 18th Of July Celebration

Silver Plume's preparation
for its big Fourth of July eel
bration is making unexpected
progress. The results have
been so gratifying that it is
planned to advertise it so that
state wide interest will be a.
reused. The feature that will
serve to do this more than
any other will be the machine
drilling contest. This contest
will carry with it a number OF
prizes that will make it worth
any drill-runner's while to
come into competition. The
entries will be by individuals
and not by drill companies.
Any drill-runner may enter
with any machine he wishes
to operate. The machine drill
contests will be OF two classes,
stoping drills and hammer
drills. There may also be
iackhamer and piston drills
classes if competitors are
found who wish to cnterthese
types of machines.
In the stopping drill contest
the exhibition will be out Of
doors, which will make It
much more attractive both for
the competitors and the pub
lie. A ledge Of sheltering
rock will be provided, which
will make it possible to. set up
the STOPPING drill machines in
the same position that they
are given in an underground
stope, but so placed, in this
contest. that they will be in
full view of the public.
There will be races and
other athletic contests and a
game of baseball between
picked teams. Clear Creek
canon has always been famous
for it's baseball teams, and the
Fourth of July game will be
of the highest class.
The Silver Plume Musical
and Dramatic Club, which has
acquired a high reputation
for it's ability, will do more
than its part in furnishing a
musement. The Private
Secretary" is being rehearsed
for presentation on the even
ing of July 3, one-half of the
proceeds to 60 toward the
prizes and other expenses,
and one-half towards furnish
ing money for music and in
struction tor the orchestra.
Orchestra music will be fur
nished where needed during
the celebration, and there will
also be a band. composed
partly of local musicians and
partly of outsiders. A dance
will follow the play on the
evening of Iulv Z.
