tolS ANNOUNCES HE JSCANDIDATE factory Man Wants the Progressive Nomination For Mayor of Richmond.

fGIVES HIS PLATFORM promises to Spend All His Time on th Job and to Be Economical. Alfred Bavis. 411 North Thirteenth street, today announced his candidacy for the Progressive nomination for mayor, in the following: The Palladium: In response to a very substantial request I am asking for the nomination to the office of Mayor subject to the will of the voters at the Progressive primary, the date of which has net yet been set. I am not entering this contest unknlndful of the Importance of the office to which I aspire, or to satisfy 'a personal ambition. I believe a very large part of our people appreciate the need of a change at the City Building. The city for many years has Byfferid from "acute flnancialitis" which the present "doctor" seems unable to cope with or to abate the onward march of the disease, and a change of "doctors" seems imperative. I realize, the functions of the city's executive, justifies the selection of a man with definite ideas leading to definite and certain results, always, of course, in the direction of conservation of the financial resources up to a point consistent with the necessities of the Municipality. Entire Time. If nominated and elected I shall consider my time as sold to the people, and I pledge my entire time to the duties of the position and will establish an office in the city building that will be open during regular stated hours and accessible to all. Publicity. The business of the city is the business of the people who are entitled to know, and whose rights shall be recognized, and to this end I pledge free access to all records, and invite the co-operation of the press in giving publicity to the administration's actions. Economy. The chief concern of any conscientious executive should be in saving the tax payer from unnecessary exactions, to save money, prevent waste, and stop leakages. To this end I pledge myself to re-organizing the present system so sadly lacking in the essentials of economy. If elected I propose to place every department, in its expenditures, upon a unit of cost and in preparing their budgets for the ensuing year they must confine themselves to that unit, the equation of unit and actual cost of operation to be the standard used in determining their fitness as head of their respective department. Another source of waste is the haphazard method of buying. It is my purpose to inaugurate a purchasing bureau. I believe in the contraction of responsibility, without too great a centralization of power, in placing the power of purchase in the bands of such a bureau will insure a substantial improvement, reducing temptation and minimize suspicion. This will not be a new office, but new duties devolving upon the chosen i heads, or chiefs, of departments so designated Utilities. The day has long since passed when franchises can be granted to private corporations to be exploited for private profit. The future holds in store for the chosen executive the granting of franchises that will vitally affect the people of our city, and no man should ask for the honor without defining his HERE IS A REAL E ""Pape's Diapepsin" Settles Upset Stomachs and Ends indigestion in Minutes.

WTO.v?.vK..Jaf.A.....W-.Jj. Scene from "The Light Eternal," which position on these important questions. Water Works. My position on the water works franchise is too well known to require repeating but briefly. 1st. I am opposed to the granting of a franchise whose proposed rates are based on an exaggerated value. 2nd. Every advantage offered by the utility commission bill should be improved. 3rd. The propriety of granting the franchise subject to the commission's subsequent review is questionable and inadvisable. 4th. I favor an indeterminate franchise revocable upon violation of its conditions. 5th. Any action of an amendatory character should be a legislative prerogative. Gas. Recognizing the distinction between gas and water, one being a natural product, while the other is a manufactured, before granting a franchise, I would obtain by expert testimony the cost of entering into the manufacturing of gas and its distribution and provide for such cost as a ixed charge against its earnings. A gas franchise should contain the following conditions: 1st. Maximum rate consistent with a fair return on its investment. 2nd. Specific conditions as to the liabilities between producer and consumer. . 3rd. The establishing of a standard of purity, that it shall give, at least ue of not less than 600 British ther-1 mal units per cubic feet of gas. the initial point of production also one at the remotest point, and where the heating and lighting quality falls ; below the average standard, a discount for such deficiency shall be deducted from the bills of the consumer. Electric Light. I am not opposed to a competitive franchise for the supplying of electric current to the city. Competition assures a better service it has an emergency value and is at the same time a contributing factor to the business advancement of our city. Such a franchise however should be restricted by a minimum rate as a preventative to unfair competition, such rate being based on our experience of the cost of production plus a fair profit. Municipal Light Plant. That perfect justice be done to our light plant, and the success attained might be shared in by all patrons of the plant, I do, as I always have, favor the city paying for its public lighting. Advisory Board. I favor an advisory board of citizens, to meet with the administration officials, in the solution of public policies, to the end that a better and broader understanding be had. I propose to pursue such a campaign as becomes the dignity of the position sought. There will be no "grand standing," and I might say with equal truth, J there will be no "bench warming:" If the will of the people say no, I shall be content to abide by their decision, if victorious, the best services at my disposal will be given them. i Very truly yours ALFRED BAVIS .4 musements At the Gennett.

The bill offered at the Murray today is one of the best so far this season. The feature act being'Mons. G.

jugglers introducing "Prince." The wonderful dog comedian complete the bill. "The Light Eternal." The wheels of time will turn backward some sixteen hundred years at the Gennett theater Wednesday, March 26, matinee and night and disclose the mighty struggle then enacted between Christian and pagan the all-powerful Caesars striving to crush the followers of the lowly Nazarene as portrayed in "The Light Eternal," a spectacular devotional drama of the third century, now in its fifth successful season. It is an inspiring sight to see these exemplars of the early martyrs give their all in the cause of right; and it is encouraging to hear the audience, applaud the sentiment for which the play stands encouraging because it refutes the claim often made that theater goers want a touch of spiciness in their plays. "The Rose Maid." One of the annual society events of the gay resort of Ostend in Belgium is elaborately portrayed in Werha and Uueschar's latest operatic success, "The Rose Maid." This is the picturesque cavalry tournament which takes place during the height of the season at that fashionable watering place A crack squad of gaily costumed militarymen, representing most of the leading nations of the world go through the showy cavalry drill of each 'nation. In the second act of JR8.eMaild. the gorgeous caval- j . ry tournament is pictured in all its . j bursts into a mad gallop as the sol- j i diers prance by until Uncle Sam's ' rough riders march on. This is signal for a patriotic outburst of ap- j plause that stamps the "pony girls" is only one of the many features which will delight local theatergoers when "The Rose Maid" visits this city on Saturday, March 29th at the Gennett theater. Sarah Bernhardt. Sarah Bernhardt, posing for moving pictures, is Queen Elizabeth in her 68th year, and has rarely loomed more conspicuous midst magnificent surroundings. All the extravagant finery of the court of England's most famous woman ruler is reproduced in the pictures to be shown at the Lyric theater and the great French artist is always the commanding figure, "every inch a queen" except when her love for Essex asserts itself in an almost plebian demonstration or when she is overcome by grief and remorse following the death of her favorite, at her command. For the purpose of the photoplay, the love affair of Essex and his queen is condensed to a few episodes. Essex is lauded as a hero, and after a battle at Plymouth is appointed lord lieutenant of Ireland, but in departing for his new post, pays parting visit to the Countess of Nottic Hsratao feco; is a critical period weakened throats, delicate bronchial tubes and unsound lungs often follow; sometimes impaired sight or hearing. But if SCOTT'S EMULSION U token promptly and regularlyafter the fever subsides it quickly and effectually restores appetite, strength and flesh. THE PEOPLE'S MODERATE EnchjrtT

tingham. This visit proves his undoing, for the Earl of Nottingham is a witness of the meeting. The Earl plans vengeance and is assisted by Lord Bacon. Essex unjustly accused of treason is promptly found guilty to oblige the irate queen, who has learned of the affair with the Countess. Bernhardt, as usual, makes Elizabeth's death most dramatic. She plunges head foremost in a pile of cushions while attendants and courtiers gather around in awe, nor does she pass away without a struggle. Bernhardt always passes away impressively. Louis Tellegin, the tall young Frenchman who was Bernhardt's Armand in "Camille" when she played two years ago, is the Essex, M. Maxudian is the Nottingham and Mme. Boulanger, who was Madam Prudence in "Camille" is the gpysy fortune teller who shocks the queen and her courtiers, as well as Essex himself, by predicting the death of that young nobleman upon the scaffold. The music accompanying the exhibition of the Queen Elizabeth pictures was composed especially for this production. Consequently there are no jarring notes. The Elizabeth pictures will be exhibited at the Lyric Theater Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, March 26, 27, 28, and no doubt the best people will take this opportunity of seeing the immortal Bernhardt portrayed.

The Murrelte. "The Honeymoon Lodging" at the Murrette today is a comedy picture sure to produce plenty of laughs. "Billy Wins," featuring Billy as the new Look Lady another comedy and "Her Friend the Bad Man" a Victor drama with an interesting plot complete the bill. The Palace. At the Palace today a special Easter program has been arranged which includes four excellent photo-plays of a quality characteristic of the famous Mutual films. "The Orphan's Mine" a western drama, tells a gripping story"Father Tames," is a comedy. "A Regained Reputation" is the title of a thrilling Reliance drama. "His First Kodak" is another comedy which proves to be an appropriate conclusion for this offering. The feature tomorrow will be "Two Glasses" from the celebrated Ella Wheeler Wilcox poem by the same name.

ATTEMPT TO SWIM

III AMJCY RIVER Four Athletes to Try Feat At Spokane Next Sunday. SPOKANE. March 24. In wa ter whose temperature hovers around the freezing point induced by chunks of ice floating down from mountain streams, four athletes of the Spokane Amateur Athletic club will endeavor to swim across the swift Spokane river next Sunday. At the outset they will have to stem some swift riffles, so treacherous that none but a powerful swimmer could pass them under the best condi tions. They expect to be carried 300 yards down-stream while crossing a distance of 75 yards. The feat will be attempted just below the biggest cataract in the Spokane river. An idea of the swiftness of the stream may be had from the fact that it has a fall of 1.2S0 feet in less than 100 miles, and has always been considered first class for power purposes, but poor for swimming. Lawrence Allen, Ernest Crueger, A. G. Stall and Herbert Sutherland, who will start, have been going through a vigorous course of training for several weeks. Every day they have taken a plunge in water just above the freezing point. Each man will have two assistants to attend him. Two boats with life guards and physicians will accompany the swimmers. Almost as important a personage will be the moving picture man. Added interest attaches to the event because all four swimmers have applied for membership in the United States volunteer life guards. They will start soon a series of tests required to quality in the organization. The quartet of swimmers will represent Spokane in an aquatic tournament at Portland, Ore., during the Rose Festival in June. They also will give a series of exhibitions in the Spokane river during the Pow Wow in June, the annual playtime carnival in Spokane country.

To Arouse Interest

In the hope of arousing interest in a greater production of dairy products in Southern Indiana, the Southern Railroad, in connection with Purdue University, will operate a special Dairy ProducUon Train. AprH 1-7.1913. In speaking of this movement, the Purdue people state that the future prosperity of the Indiana farmer demands not only that the fertility of our farms be maintained, but that our high priced lands yield larger crops. The productive power of the soil responds to no form of agriculture more readily, more abundantly and more permanently than to the stocking of our farms with live stock, and no form of live stock brings as large returns consistent with the rational Improvement of the soil, as the dairy cow. It is estimated that the fertilizing value of the manure produced annually is $27.00 per cow. When sold in the form of butter the product of the dairy cow removes from the soil annually ; about eight cents worth of fertility. She returns to the soil over three hundred times as much fertility as she removes. The increased demand of a growing population and the numerous creameries, milk plants, condensories and ice cream factories all call for milk and cream. Indiana is not producing as much dairy products as she consumes. We are capable of producing j more and sharing in the world's mar ket. Experiments carried on by the Purdue Experiment Station and experiment stations of sister states prove conclusively that it is possible to increase the income from the dairy business on the average Indiana farm from 60 to 100 per cent. Investigations also show that Indiana farms are supporting thousands of so-called dairy cows without receiving any profits. If the dairy business is to flourish in CASTOR I A For Infanta and Children. The Kind You Hais Always Bough) Bears the Signature of Sulphur Hair Remedy," ready to use. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre of your hair and is the best thing known to remove dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Everybody chooses "Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur because it darkens eo naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time which requires but a few moments. Do this at night and by morning the gray hair has disappeared and after another application it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy, lustrous and abundant. It certainly helps folks look years younger and twice as attractive, says a well-known down-town druggist.
