Pap Prices Sons Preaching.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 2.-For two years
or more, three familiar figures have not
been seen on the streets of st. Louis and

teriOus disappearance. They are Colonel
CELSIUS Price, his brother, Quintus Price,
sons OF the famous confederate general
''Pap" Price. and DR.. Sylvester Nedelet, at
one time coroner of the city of st. LOUIS.
There was q warm intimacy between the
trio, who devoted considerable time to-
gether to psychic research. and the eXplana-
JiOn of the Infinite The three friends had
by their long study Of the Enys' cries Of the
universe, reached 4 state of eXaltatiOn that
was absolute belief in the power of the Di-
vine. A near and dear relative Of Colonel
Price, q lady now living and well known in
MissOuri-Mrs. Willis-Was compelled to
undergo dangerous surgical operation in
New York. The three friends on their knees
at the bedside registered VOW that If the
lady be spared they would devote the re-
mainder of their lives to the propagation of
the holy truths in which they believed would
rsnOunce the W3rld and for the spiritual
elevation of mankind. The lady lived and
the trio kept their vow. They preached on
the streets and were last seen by nephew
of Colonel Price engaged in that calling il

Horticultural society was allowed to publish
its report.
