the Yelled Prophet will come within tht
gates OF ST. Louis to lead the parade OF
the faithful when II starts from the Den
at the corner OF Twenty first n Walnut

bear down upon the city in one OF Profes-
sor Langley's airships. as automobiles are
so extremely out OF date now. while ev-
erythinE that the prophet does is said to
be strictly up-tO-date.
