Big headltners with scenic investiture which have had prominent showings on Broadway will be the rule Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Emmett WeIch & Go. in a tabloid musical comedy holds the top position. This is one Of the big gest and brightest of tabIoids and as it requires ten artists Of replEta ton, it can be easily seen how pretentious this production is.
 Five other acts of sterling quality will augment the program. Kelly and Judge in a speciality of hilarious pro pensities. Mae Francis, ''tf1e sweetest girl in vaudeville, will be seen in an offering that eparkles with delight. She sings in an original manner with a change of costume for each. Hu- bert and Wi1lin are two entertainers who have made a reputation in the best theatres in America. They sure 1y will please Plaza audiences. Kriger in a surprise act, and Charles Buckley in one of the funniest sketches seen in this city are. the other numbers.
 The daylight photo plays are always good at the Plaza Theatre, but for the last three days this week they are exceptionally clever. The theatre is open from 1:30 to o'clock and from to 1O:3O; Saturday, continuous, 1:3o to 1O:3O Come when you like, stay as long as you please. The Plaza slogan is Get your moneys worth.

 We know of no other medicine which has been so successful in relieving the suffering of women, or received so many genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
 In nearly every community you will find women who have been restored to health by this famous medicine. Almost every woman you meet knows of the great good it has been doing among suffering women for the past 30 years.
 In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn, Mass, are files containing hundreds of thousands of letters from women seek ing health, in which many openly state over their own signatures that they have regained their health by taking Lydia E. Pinkhan's Vegetable Compound, many of them state that it has saved them from surgical operations.

 Oddly enough, a little sob broke from the girls throat as the colonel spoke. The next moment, with one hand nufter1ng nervouSiy at her DOS om, she closed the door behind him.
 Crossing the country road a few rods from the gate leading into the Doggetts' yard, Colonel Todhunter stopped to speak to Aunt Mirandy Ransom, the old negress whom he had last met in the Nineveh town square and who now stood at the door of her little cabin.

Brady at his seThe Playhouse in New York, and comes with a record of fifteen months uninterrupted run there. MT. Broad hurst's treatment of the theme on which he builds his play is daring in the extreme It is the story of a. marriage between a poor young girl and a rich man. The girl does not love the man at the time of their marriage, but she does, later on. A fourteen dollar a week shipping clerk and his wife. the sister of the girl who marries the millionaire, are big factors in the story. The sale of seats opened today.

POLI'S VAUDEVILLE
(By the PoIi Press Agent }

Nby the Ton HrGSS A2onGs1
 The largest audiences in the history witnessing the performances at Polls Theatre and wondering at the kineto- phone, or talking pictures, the most recent and greatest invention Of Thomas Edison, which were secured by MT. Poli at enormous expense. The ambitious manager, at one full swoop paid out twenty thousand dollars for the marvellous pictures, but from the way the public is responding, it is a foregone conclusion that he will reap a wonderful reward in packing his beautiful playhouse for the week and longer if he can arrange to keep the pictures here and change the sub jeots.
 The program, in general, is a re- markable one Wright and Dietrich, superIative singers in their unique moledy offering, are two of the most popular people on the all star b1ll while the Metropolitan MinstrelS with the six versatile little artists in a va riety Of comedy stunts keeps the au- dttors in an uproar. The Jungnan Family without doubt the clever est aerial workers ever seen here, both arnuse and startIe the spectators, while the comedian in the act affords all kinds of amusement. Stuart and Keely in an elaborate dancing novelty; 'tIn the Barracks Jesse LaSky' g beautiful military operetta with it's bevy of pretty girls and funny com edians, is one of the unsurpassable features on the program. The talking pictures and the seven other acts are proving a potent magnet and crowded houses result.
 The business this week at Polls is the largest in the history of the big playhouse and many requests are com ing to Manager Poli to retain the talking pictures for another week, with other subjects, if he is able to do so.

New York, April S.-After pursuing
an uncertain course with prices first
above and then below yesterdays

strength today, and trading ended with
a number of substantial advances.
Fluctuations seemed to be chiefly the
reflection of activity on the part of
the professional traders, who found it
about as difficult to now stock in
one direction as the other. Evidences

but the movement was short-Iived and

Renewed confidence was exhibited in
the upward movement of the last hour,
and best prices of the day were at

were especially strong.
The highly favorable character of
the government report on winter

the final upturn. The March decrease

DR.. CL|ZBE RESIGNS
As Professor Of Biblical Literature In
Alma College
IS YEARS MEMBER OF FACULTY
A Man Loved by Pupil, Teacher and Citz I
will Retain His Residence In Alma

At the recent meeting of the board
of trustees of Alma college DR.. jay
Clizbe rendered his resignation as
instructor of Biblical literature and
will upon the advice of his physician
spend his remaining years in less ac-
tive life
DR.. Clizbe came to Alma sixteen
years ago from Mason, where fol
several years he held the pastorate
of the First Presbyterian church. He
was born in Amsterdam, New York
where he acquired high school ed
ucation, later graduating with honors
from one of New York's state col
leges, going to Amherst where for a
number of years he was pastor of the
Presbyterian church of that city. In
later life he travelled extensively
through Europe.
DR.. Clizbe is different from the
majority of men, the almighty dol
lar not having for him the attrac-
tion it does for most of men, as
shown by the fact that for sixteen
years as professor Of Biblical liter
ature he has accepted from the board
OF trustees a salary of only 5000 per
year. This was at Dr. Clizbe's own
request, his desire being to assist the
college during a critical period of its
history and to inculcate in the minds
OF the student body the worth of the
Bible, not only as a character-b builder
but as the guide book to better life
here and an assurance of life here
after
During his sixteen years work at
Alma college hundreds of students
now scattered all over this broad
land have been benefited not only
by the instruction received but by
coming in contact with the person
ality of their instructor, DR.. Clizbe.
June 10th, 1913, DR.. Clizbe cele-
brated his nth birthday and the cit
izens of Alma who long have con-
sidered him the Grand Old Man" OF
Alma College, join with the alumni,
college faculty and board of trustees
in wishing him many, many years OF
health and happiness in this COM
munity.
