The Democrats Of St Louis at An enthusi-
astio ma0 meeting held at the Jefferson
Club last night. voiced q vigorous protest
to the action of the House OF Delegates In
noioinG- up public measures, particularly
the street improvement bills and the World s
Fair bond bul
1t was emphadcally announced from the
platform by Harry B. Hswee and others
that the Democratic party IN st. Louis stood
for clean politics, and that Democrats in
the House Of Delegates who did not hold to
this principle would be considered both as
party traitors and as venal public servants.
The general sentiment Of the meeting As
evidenced from the bursts Of applause which
followed the condemnationS Of nlibustering
tactics showed that all present were in q
serious mood. and that they intended to
demand and force tho House to cease de-
laying the legislaton necessary for the New
st. Louis.
The fact that such q demonstration of
public feeling greeted their action Of last
Tuesday night in laying over the street
Improvement bills has already brought GER
tain House members to their senses and It
was common talk yesterday afternoon, be-
fore the Jefferson Club meeting. that the
combine was on the rum" that the street
bills would be reconsidered at the House
meeting Tuesday night, and that they
would go through without opposition.
Jim Croning. who opposed the bills said
yesterday that he himself would make the
motion for reconsideration.
Il made a bad break" said he. 'in vot-
ing against them
SPEAKER KELLY INVITES
CITIZENS TO ATTEND MEETING.
Speaker Charles F. Kelly declared that
Cronin. Sweeney and Stannard would not
stop the reconsideration Of the bills.
Il extend an invitation to every citizen OF
St Louis who favors those bills to attend
the House meeting Tuesday and help me
throw every member who votes against
them out OF the window. I'll start the
ball, necessary. and keep 1t rolling. Those
bills are going through"
Bad weather did not prevent a full at
tendance at the Jefferson Club last night
President Hawes called the meeting TO or
der and made a brief address. at the con-
clusion Of which It was moved that a COM
mittee Of five be appointed to draft resoIu-
tions to express the sentiment of the meet
Ing. The following were named as COM
mitteemen: Judge Daniel Dillon. r. F..
Combs. Eugene Karst Doctor John simon
and George w. Harris.
Mr.. Hawes stated that the Board of
Directors OF the Jefferson Club had fully
discussed TIE action OF the House of Dele
gates in killing certain bills for public i'm
provements. and could ind no reason for
such proceeding.
1T seems said Mr.. Hawes. that per-
sonal differences between the members of
the House are largely responsible.

Catarrh is systemic disease durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve centers. This Is
what Peruna does. Peruna Immediately
invigorates the nerve-centers which
give vitality TO the mucous membranes.
Then catarrh disappears. Then catarrh
ia permanently cured.

THE eruption Of Mont Pelee Of May s

The electrical phenomena are also new.
