To Aid Interubs.

A bill will be introduced in the
coming legislature providing for the
construction of interurban railroads
by the same plan under which
drainage systems are now author
lied, says the LaPlata Home Press.
The. idea belongs to Mr.. Henry Funk
of Shelby county. Mr.. Funk has
had considerable experience lin the
construction of lnterurban railroads
and drainage bitches. He thinks
by this method that railroads can
be secured by enterprislng people
of almost any community. The ter
ritory is to be divided into ten
mile zones, with the railroadsin the
center. People will vote on the
proposition, according to the num-
Der of acres they hold. If carried
the matter is handled through the
circuit court; bonds are issued. a
board of directors chosen and the
work of construction will proceed
just the same as in the building of
drainage canal. Many practical
business men and farmers are said
to favor the plan.

Marie Corelli. after proving by
"Thelma." Barabbas," The Life
Everlasting" "Wormwood," The
Sorrows of Satan," and many an
other book that she has such inten-
sity of romance, has deliberately
set about writing the most exquisite
love'story, enshrinine the most low
able girl that she could make-and
she has succeeded in Innocent. To
the heroine she has not given mere
ly authors craftsmanship, but all
her warmest love.
There is all the medieval charm
with the conviction of modern life
in the picture of the ancient farm
where Innocent Jocelyn was reared
for old Farmer Jocelyn refused to
permit the use of modern machin-
cry, and here life moved sweetly,
beautifully, with the murmur of
doves in the elms and the stout
barns crammed with such great
crops as were found nowhere else.
The ancient place had once been
the refuge of the Sieur de Jocelin

strange mystery about her origin.
that not for her was quiet love with
