RICHMOND, Ind., March 18.—A special city election to determine whether Richmond prefers the city manager form of government to the present mayor and council ferm is virtually assured by unofficial returns from ward chairmen of the city, who are circulating petitions. It Is estimated that 2.500 signatures will be obtained by tonight. Passage of the home rule bill by the Legislature has discontinued the announcement of candidates for mayor and councilmen of the city. Activity in all politlcsil matters seems to have been suspended in anticipation of the balloting on the city manager form of government.

HOROSCOPE “The stars Incline, but do not compel 1”
SATURDAY, MARCH 19. The sun rules strongly for good today, according to astrology. Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are adverse. It Is a most auspicious sway under which to push applications for appointments or positions. Political claims are fairly well directed. Wnile the planetary directions should be favorable to most persons who seek employment, there is a sign forbidding to soldiers, who may not be lucky today. Again treachery is foreshadowed on the part of a foreign power and a sensation is indicated. Persons whose birthdate it Is should attend carefully to business during the coming year. Those who are employed will be promoted. Children born on this day may be Quick tempered and difficult to manage, hut they are likely to be exceedingly clever.—Copyright, 1921.
