Special to Times Republican.
Webster City, June 19.-There Is to
be revival this summer Of agitation
favorable to the construction or a
Boone Webster City interurban. Judge
Dwyer of Boone, has gone over the
matter thoroughly with President Lor-
ing of the Fort Dodge, Des Moines d
Southern, and w. s. Weston, Of this
city, court reporter for Judge Mccall
Of Nevada, expects to devote some time
this summer in an effor. to arouse suf-
ficient interest hereabouts to warrant
campaign for the sale of stock in the
project
Eight years ago this project was up
and almost enough stock was disposed
Of when period Of money stress put a
stop to all railroad construction. Web
ster City has long wanted an inter
urban outlet to the southwest and the
Boone line would give it. The pro-
jected line would also run north OF
this city to Clarion on the old survey
made years ago and which runs east
of Webster City and straight north to
Clarion on the half section line.
lnterurbans Increase Land Values.
Interurban lines increase land values
from s. to $50 per acre. Under the
new Iowa law a tax can be voted on
all lands for three miles back on each
side Of the line. 1t costs about 100000
mile to build and equip an inter-
urban. Mr.. Loring who lives in Bos-
ton, tells Judge Dryer and Mr.. Weston
that II the amount Of $4,000 mile
can be sold, bonds can easily be SOLD
for the balance and the line built. He
also gives it as his opinion that line
from Boone north to Webster City and
on to Clarion would pay for 1t would
tap a rich farm territory which Is not
close to any railroad. Mr.. Weston be-
lieves that the people of Webster City
would be more than willing to vote a
tax and this along with a similar tax
in every township and some private
sales Of stock would be sufficient to
put the project on its feet. Webster
City and the country through which
this line would pass would benefit al
most an untold amount by the con-
struction Of this line and it is believed
that a special tax would carry big, once
Il was put up to the voters.

WAYS OF PICKING HUSBANDS
Maidens Have Various Methods, Some
of Which Would Seem to Border
on the Ludicrous.

To ninety-nine girls out Of hun
dred the most important duty in life is
choosing a husband Methods of
choice vary good deal, of course,
chiefly perhaps as between town and
country-bred maidsns.
To the town or suburban girl i
mans clothes count almost for every
thing. The bride is to the best dressed.
The cut of a coat or the color of
cravat weighs more with Clara than
character.
Her country cousin, on the other
hand, knows better than to pin her
faith to a tailor's dummy. She is
guided in her choice by more than oc-
cult signs. BY agitating with her
hand the water in q bucket she can
see the image of her future spouse.
If she desires confirmation she has
only to throw broken eggs over a
friends head and the same image will
appear.
The peasant girls of Russia arrive
at a similar result by seating them
selves in front of a small looking glass
in a seEidark room, when vision of
their future lord and master will be
certain to present itself.
Once a year an exceptional oppor-
tmity occurs At twelve o'clock on
Christmas eve every girl who can
contrives to steal out in order to ask
the first man she meets his name.
Whatever he gives is that of the
