That Postal Card Shower.

The postal card shower" given TO
Senator Chase last week was quite a
success, numerically speaking, but
failed to convince the senator that
improvement over the present high
way commission law is impossible.
Many cards were received by the
senator, but the senders were by no
means unanimous in asking for the
retention of the present law. Print
ed upon the cards were these words:
1--WE urge your support of the pres
ent highway commission and the
present system of permanent road
building" Quite large percentage
of those sending the cards to Mr..
Chase altered the printed wording
and urged the senator in substance
to support the Johnson bill. Perhaps
a majority of farmers who sent cards
oppose the present methods of road
building. 1t appears that Col. B. F.
Keltz is the gentleman who evolved

MINNEAPOLIS SYM
PHONY ORCHESTRA
J. A. Boeye and w. H. Cook Have an
Option for Afternoon of
May 28th.

John A. Boeye and w. H. Cook
have acquired an option on the Min
neapolis Symphony Orchestra for
the afternoon of May 2Sth for a con-
cert in the armory opera house. I'm
der the management of this combin-
alton of local pride, alert enter
prise and musical experience, the op-
tion should be converted into posi-
tive engagement and such, it is hop
ed, will be the case, if the project is
submitted to the public promptly. In
the past Manager Cook has been var
iously importuned to bring us a
real orchestra; full, first-class Or
chestra; one of the very BEST" ETC.,
but owing to the excessive aggregate
expense of the several attractions in
the Cook concert courses and the lin
it price of season tickets, it has here
tofore seemed unfeasible to incur the
large individual expense of a SYM
phony orchestra. However, with the
present combination of enterprise
and experience and with their efforts
concentrated on the single event, the
prospect for a big concert on the af-
ternoon of Friday, May 2Sth, looks
good. Advance subscriptions will
tell the tale and the advance sale is
likely to be greatly facilitated by the
combination of large orchestra of
fifty instrumentalists and a quartette
of noted singers, thus affording an
opportunity to hear the biggest ag-
gregation yet presented in Webster
City. While the famous Boston
Symphony Orchestra enjoys the dis
tinction of being the worlds finest
symphony orchestra, the Minneapo-
lis, owing to the positive genius and
untiring efforts of Conductor Obber-
hofer, is now ranked by many critics
as being next to the Boston orches-
tra-not excepting the Chicago Sym
phony. After several days of negoti-
tions, Messrs. Cook and Boeye sue
ceeded in acquiring the above option
upon terms which, considering the
greatness of the aggregation and the
further fact that the orchestra is
booked for Fort Dodge on the even
ing of May 2Sth, induced them tc
try for the Webster City concert and
it is believed it can be brought to g
successful issue.
Those desiring reservations should
notify the management promptly.

the plan of a postal card shower and
it is understood that the colonel was
quite active, in conjunction with Of
ficers of the automobile club who
happen to be civil engineers. OF
course it can be readily understood
why civil engineers are so favorable
to present plans, and the colonel is
always ready to give of his time and
money for anything that is for the
general welfare. The fact that the
colonel has relative who is in the
pay of the highway commission
could not possibly influence him in
the matter.

CHEAP HEAT RATE
FOR ELECTRICITY
Webster City Might Build up Quite
an Extensive Business in
This Line.

Some of the towns of the country
owning their electric plants are CIV
ing a very cheap rate for heating
purposes and are finding that they
are making money by it and still
serving the public well. Possibly
Webster City might build up a large
business in the heating line by
adopting a rate that, would induce
people to use electricity for cooking.
There is no heat equal to it in clean
illness and convenience. The follow
ing dispatch tells of the experience
along this line in a Nebraska town:
Hastings, Neb., March 27.-The
city council Monday night ordered a
cut in municipal electric heating
rates from to is cents per kilo-
watt hour, and struck blow that
will force the local gas corporation
to cut it's present rates or lose pat
ronage.
When current for heating was Of
fered at 4 cents last summer, several
electric heating stoves were install
ed by the city at actual cost.
'These stoves have proven so sue
cessful that every user of electrical
current for heating has become a
walking advertisement" Mayor In
graham says, adding, "the stove in
stalled in my own home exceeded my
expectations.
When light rates were reduced 90
per cent a year last January, the city
cut it's earnings about $4,000 but
the city had more than $4,000 left
in it's light plant earnings for the
twelve months that followed.
The day load problem, according
to Light Commissioner Cloyd, has
been rapidly solved by the use of
fuel current for cooking. Without
using more men or machinery, the
city is now selling current for heat,
made by energy that formerly was
not being utilized.

SPOKE at Christian Church.

A very fine address was given
Sunday night at the Christian church
by a Mr.. Smith, an attorney of
Charleston, w. Va, who was in the
city on legal business. The topic
was King Solomon" and the speak
er, after outlining the search Of
King Solomon for the most necessary
thing in life, closed with the finding
of the wise king-"Fear God and
keep His commandments, for this is
the whole duty of man."

Back from Exposition.

Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Dakin, and the
Misses Minnie Helmick, Nettie Bos-
sert and Ethel Row, who left this
city about one month ago to take in
the Panama Exposition and visit
other western points, arrived home
Saturday evening. They were loud
in their praises of the climate of
California, but did not enjoy the ex-
position as much as they had expect
ed to.

taken up by men and young men
who never would wear the old style.
Another angle of mems clothing for
spring is the quantities of imported
fabrics being shown. The struggle
over seas doesn't seem to have af-
fected the fabrics up to now. Glen
Urquharts and Tartans are among
the favorites, although the stripes
are holding on strongly. In cut the
tendency is toward broad lapels,
form fitting backs and straight hung
trousers; and away from padded and
stiff-fronted coats. One standard
style that is very popular with young
men has thirty inch coat with a
soft front. The back fits in at the
waist; and has a vent. Of the three
buttons the top one is to be left open,
to allow proper roll to the broad,
notched lapels. The waistcoat has
either roll collar or none at all,
and has five buttons. The trousers
are medium English effect, hanging
in straight lines and having mar
row cuff. ....
Hats offer a wide variety-stiff
and soft. In the soft hats medi-
um crown with rolled brim seems
a little ahead in popularity, particu-
larly among the younger men.
Diagonal stripes, some Of them
quite wide, seem to have the call in
the early showings of spring neck
wear. A large number Of bows, In
mixed colors, are being shown.
Everything in shirts seems to In
cline toward plain, soft effects; few
tucks or plaits are shown. 1t looks
like a big season on silks and flan-
nels. In colorings there is an i'm
mense variety with new and odd pat
terms and color combinations.
This seasons shoes show fiat
soles, in a rather narrow effect and
low, fiat heels. The cloth top is
gaining in favor.

mine BELOW ZERO,
| March q, 1894
Severe Blizzard Swept Over This Part
Of Iowa on April 5th of
That Year.

| Some of the papers of the state are
calling attention to the fact that
Itwenty-one years ago, on March a.,
the mercury in some places dropped
below zero and that on April 5th
following a severe blizzard swept ov-
er this part of Iowa. In speaking of
these cold waves the Boone News
Republican says:
F. P. Wylie has more than one
reason for remembering 21 years
ago today The mercury dropped to
9 below zero AID the community was
in the grip of cold spell. The
weather prior to that time had been
almost ideal spring weather and the
farmers had progressed splendidly
with their spring work. Some even
had oats up. Then the cold wave
came and ruined everything. So in
tense was the cold that the wave
swept on to Florida and the orange
crop there was ruined. Shortly af-
ter this cold wave blizzard struck
this community, this being the 5th
of April, and made the inhabitants
feel that winter had returned for
fair.
Another reason Mr.. Wylie remem-
bers twenty-one years ago today was
that he was severely injured in an
accident a. the Twin Crossings, east
of the city. His team went over an
embankment and he was seriously
hurt.

Preserve the Lakes.

Winterset News: Senator Chase
has done the state great service in
fighting the encroachments of the
land owners on the lakes of the state.
Instead of draining the lakes the
state should be building them larg-
er. Such bodies of water as Blue
lake in Monona county and lakes
like it on the Missouri bottom should
be carefully surveyed and carefully
preserved by daming the outlets in
stead of draining them by bitches.
The few beautiful lakes we have in
Iowa are priceless. The state can
not go too far in preserving them
from encroachment of land owners.
Iowa has plenty of money but she
has few places where her people can
go to enjoy out door life. The peo-
pie are hungry for the out doors. It
is getting harder and harder as the
years go by here in southern Iowa
to find a place where one may camp
by a considerable stream. What few
places we have should be preserved.
