EXPELLED MIR. FLOOD.
Independent Club Fired a Supporter
of MIR. Partridge.


of MIR. Hartridge.
There was a lively time at the meeting
of the Osborne Independent Club at the
Duffy Street Hail last night President
Henry Garwes was in the chair, and as
soon as the meeting was called to order
he proposed the expulsion Of Elliott p.
Flood, a member of the club, on the
ground that Mr.. Flood had spoken al a
Liberal meeting on Tuesday night and had
announced himself in favor of Mr.. Hart
ridge
Mr. Flood came to the Morning News
Office after the ting with
statement of the affair, in which
he said MIR. Garwes made the
motion and put il to a vote. The
majority present being city employees, the
vote was carried. Mr. Flood endeavored
to defend himself, and to explain that he
did not deny that he was a Hartridge
man, but the crowd would not allow him
to finish his address. Seeing that the
meeting was one-sided affair, Mr.. Flood
and his friends withdrew Most of the
rest of the crowd being city employees,
Mr. Flood stated, they did not dare to
leave the hall.
Mr. Garwes was recently appointed fore
man of dry culture for the eastern divis-
ion of the city, to succeed the late w. f.
Clark.

FOR MALARIA,
CHILLS AND fever
The Best Prescription Is Grove'a
Tasteless Chill Tonic.
The Formula Is Plainly Printed on Every Botth
So That the People May Know Just
What They Are Taking.

1mitators do not advertise their formul,
knowing that you would not buy their medi.
cine if you knew what it contained. Grove,
contains Iron and Quininc put up in correct
proportions and is in Tasteess form. The
Iron acts as tonic while the Quinne drives
the malaria out of the system. Any reliable
druggist will tell you that Grove is the
Original and that all other so-ca]ed "Taste-
less" chill tonics arc limitations. An ANALYSIS
of other chill tonics shows that Groves is
superior to all others in every respect. You are
not experimenting when you take Grove's-its

walks had dimmed their briiliancy. He
was approaching a crossing. Just
ahead OF him a young woman was
wheeling a baby carriage in the same
direction. The gutter was more than
ankle deep with ice cold water. The
young woman hesitated. To the res
