The greatest wrong that is inflicted ON
The splendid work Dr.. Mccoy is doing for
hum anity comes from those so-callcd
Intelligent critics who say something like
this: "Oh. yes, DIR. Mccoy is a scientist,
an able pin ysician all right. He does as
much good as any doctor. probably; more
good than most doctors; but he don't t cure
There is no one who by tile science Of
medicine does cure. They may relieve
symptoms and benefit TO some degree,
perhaps, but they don't cure. Medicine
is not an exact science"
Those who talk like this are the most
dangerous enemies to this splendid work
The science OF medicine that Dr.. Mccoy
represents does core. Itis an exact science
There are no half truths in it. There is
only one answer to such dangerous criti-
tism ,andthat answers INVESTIGA TION.
Upon that answer DR.. Mccoy insists as
his right in this community, a duty that
all well thinking people owe 20 the noble
science of medicine, as a duty tn at all the
people owe to the brotherhood of Man. In
vestigate these cases.
Go and see them. Write TO them. See
and talk with their friends and neighbors
Prove the truth Of these words. Here are
these cases. They say they are cured
DR.. Mccoy tells you they are cured.
Now. when a so-called intelligent
critic launches his dangerous skep-
ticism, be prepared to answer him
with this: II have been to see these
people. l have written them. 1
have investigated their cases cir
cumstantiaIly. 1 know ali about
them. 1 know they were cured of
these diseases by Doctor Mccoy"
These cases in these Columns are printed
for no other purpose than to answer this
kind Of criticism. They are selected
from different sections of the city, from
people who are accessible to you, whom
you can go and see. Searching investiga-
tiun by intelligent, right-ninded people is
tAeanswer Ia this dangerous, though SUPER
ficial skepticism, which Doctor Mccoy has
the right to demand.

ORIOLES GET JAKE .STENzEL
Brodie and Donnelly Will Be With
the Pirates Next Year.
Pittsburg Throws in Three Other
Players for Good Mens.1re-Good
Trade for Both Teams..

The consummation of a deal between
Baltimore and Pittsburg by which the
Orioles get Jake Stencil, the star outfield-
er; Horton, a promising young pitcher;
TRULY, who ulnyed second base for Chi
ca go part OF the season OF / S95, and Bryan,
an outfielder of the Toronto team OF this
year, in exchange for Walter Brodie and
Jimmy Donnelly, does not so far TO prove
tnat Won der Horst believes the Monumental
City has tired Of a winning ball club.
The rumor that the baltimore, Cleveland
and ST. Louis teams will be punched, how
ever, may have more foundation and the
Baltimore Pittsburg trade may mark the
first step in an effort To '.corner' star
players, SO that the playing strength OF
Baltimore, Cleveland and ST. Louis after
a division OF the men has been made, will
be nearly equal as possible and at the same
time insure championship honors to one
Of the three cities; all Of which will come
Jut in the wash at the League meeting
In Stencil Baltimore secures one OF the
best outfielders in the League, and one of
the leading batsmen Of the country. He
has been with Pittsburg since 1888, and
has never failed TO be among the premier
batters of the League.
In 1893 he led the League with an aver
age of 400; in 1894 he was well up; in
1895 he was tenth; with an average of .3S4;
this year he was sixth, Just behind Joe KeI-
ley, with an average OF 1856.
In addition to his prowess with the stick
Stencil is one Of the fastest men in the
country on bases, and has always ranked
among the first half dozen of the Leagues
base steaiers. He viii help out the cham
pions wonderfully, and will be strong ex-
actly where Brode was weak.
For Baltimore's purposes the deal is Il
most excellent one. and at the same time it
VIII improve the Tittsburg team.
In Walter Brodie Hanlon is giving up
first-class man. He went TO Baltimore in
1893 from st. Louis. and has done great
work ever since. Up TO this year he stood
high VI in batting, but the past season he
fell below the 800 mark.
on bases and generally in what is called
Inside work Brode was weak and IL was
lust his weakness here that caused Hanlun
to part with him.
Donnelly will prove Just the man for
Pittsburg. He made a great record with
the Champions this season. and is fairly en-
titled to be ranked among the leading third
basemcn of the League.
But Baltimore could have no Use for two
stars like MEG and Donnelly and Don
nelly had to be traded.
Ofthe new me n that Baltimore gets Horton
is very promising young pitcher. HanIon
had his eve on him early this season, bat
Pittsburg slipped in and signed him.
Truby made quite a reputation in Chi
cago in '95, but could not get along with
Anson, and SO WAS | ct 60 to Pittsburg
Bryan is an OUtfielder OF more than ordi-
nary merit. These men have been with the
Toronto team this season, which was the
farm for Pittsburg.
OfcoUrse, HanlOn ma not retain all these
men. but he Will have abundant opportunity
To dispose of them advantageously.

STUDYING THE STARS
Lowell Astronomical Observatory

Lowell Astronomical Observatory
VIII Be Removed to Mexico.
Flagstaff. Ariz, Nov. 1.-THE Lowell
Astrono nomical Observatory, which was es-
tablished here in 1894 for the study OF tiie
planets, especially Mars, is in progress or
removal TO the City of Mexico. The lenses
of the great telescope have been removed,
and the machine is being taken down to De
shipped in few days.
The object in gong ssouth is to secure
good seeing during the winter months
and the experts who have studied the ques-
ton say thiscan be obtained mt MeAican
plateau which lies within the tropics and
has an elevation of some eight thousand
feet over the sea level.
The observatory was in active opera
ton here during 1894 and 1898, ana many
hundreds of fine drawings were, made OF
Mars, the result sho wing that our neigh
boring planet is covered with an extcn-
sive system of canals, arranged IN ara
ficial manner as If the work OF 1ntelligent
beings These researches were made Icy
Profs. Lowell, Pickering and Douglas and
have attained world wide celebrity
Prof Lowel's discoveries induced him
to order q new twentyfour inch telescope
from Alvan Clark & Sons. with view OF
prosecuting these studies still farther
The new telescope has been in use since
August, 1886, and many new discov-
cries have been made
The work has been centered upon the
planets and Southern stars Profs- Low
ell and Douglas have continued their
other observations Of Mars. while Prof
Lowell and Mr.. Drew have worked on
Mercury and Venus during the daytime.
In the clear air OF the afternoon these
planets have shown conspicuous workings
and the astronomers have been able, not
merely to make maps Of their surfaces,
but to prove conclusively that the bodies
rotate only in the course Of a revolution
about the sun. One face of the planet is
therefore turned toward the sun and heat
ed to an immense temperature, while the
other is wrapped in everlasting night. The
markings down by Lowell have settled the
question of the rotation of Mercury and
Venus, which had been partially studied
by Schiaparilii some years ago.
Lowell finds that Mercury has an ap-
preciable atmosphere, while Venus has an
abundance Of it, but for some reason She
possesses only very few clouds.
