and Appears Authentic

st. Louis (Speciai) May g-On Wed
nesday afternoon some remarkable dem
onstrations were given in public by L.
r. Cooper. or the Great Cooper as he
is called, who Is introducing for the first
time in ST. Louis the preparations
which created sensation In eastern
elites.
The demonstration took place al Mr..
Cooper's headquarters and were wit
messed by several hundred people As
nearly as could be learned the facts were
these:
At three o'clock In the afternoon tho
young man offered to show what one Of
his remedies would do for deafness. and
agleed tc make any one present who
was afflicted with deafness hear again IN
less than three minutes.
There were many deaf people present
and about a dozen OF these were given
the demonstration, consisting OF one Of
the Cooper preparations.
Tho hearing Of these people was then
tested after an interval Of between two
and three minutes. The test consisted OF
questions put TO them in an ordinary
conversational zone at distances varying
from five to thirty feet
The results were remarkable In tho ex-
treme. Some OF these people who were
treated had been deaf for a number OF
years. When the first question was ask
ed look OF amazement would spread
over their faces and they would forget TO
answer the question. As the questions
were repeated the surprised look would
give way to one OF delight Many were
so anected that they burst into tears and
were scarcely able to answer the aues-
tion.
In no single Instance. SO far as conld
be learned would an Individual fail TO
hear Many were able to hear a finger
snap at a distance OF thirty feet At
the request Of MT Cooper questions were
put to them by their friends or by yari-
GUS spectators in an ordinary tone OF
voice and the questions were. readily
answered.
Among those who were treated was
Mr.. VIM II. shearer living at 2i5J s.
18TH ST. When seen by reporter short
~ after the demonstration Mr., Shearer
said

In giving an account OF these demon
strotions Mr.. cooper sid rhe prepa-
ration used is not tb, one with which
