vention of the General Federation OF

Of recovering his healtht. He was one
Of the wealthiest men of St Louis,
the owner Of several hotels and thea
tiers, and OF large interests in many
commercial enterprises, and it was
pressing business needs that caused
him to return to St Louis rather than
remain heer some months.
Mr.. Cella's death will perhaps mean
that the extensive property interests
he has controlled will pass into thc
hands of Mr. Joseph Martin, who had
been associated with him for many
years, and who is a first class business
man. Mr. Celia had always cooper
