Claim of Central Figure in Recent Contro-
 verSy Is Novel.

The new theory advanced by l.. T. cooper relative to the human stom- ach has attracted such widespread attention that the public in cities visited by the young man has been Joined by many physicians in a dis cussion of his beliefs and medicines.
 Mir. Cooper says that human health Is dependent almost entirely upon the stomach. He says that no dis. ease can be conquered without first alleviating all stomach disorders. He further says that most men and wom- en of this generation are half.slek, owing to degenerate stomachs. And lastly. he claims that his New Dis covery medicine will rejuvenate the human stomach In 90 days.
 Cooper has been travelling from one city to another. conducting in each what he calls campaign of education. For the past year he has met tho public In the larger cities of the country, and his success has been phenomenal. Thousands of people have flocked to his headquar- ters wherever he has gone. and tho sale of his medicine has been beyond anything of the kind ever before witnessed.
 Possibly the most interesting fea. ture of the attention this young man has attracted is what his army of followers. whom he has converted to bis beliefs through his medicines, have to say on the subject. The fol lowing statements are from two well known residents of Chicago and Bos- ton. respectively. and the enthusiasm of these Is characteristic of Cooper s admirers generally.
 Mrs. H. B. Mack. of 3201 State street. Chicago. says: q have been suffering for 12 years from com. bination of stomach troubles, catarrh and constipation. I had gnawing pain in the pit of my stomach. a sort

Hidden Hand.

On Thursday night of last week there was presented at the Becker & Lewis opera house, the dramatization of Mrs. Southworth's famous novel, "The Hidden Hand. This was the second company travelling under the management of Fred G. Conrad, of Chicago, which has played here this season, the first one being the Count of Monte Cristo. The Hidden Hand, like Dumas drama, was excellently staged and faultlessly' portrayed. All the characters were good, and where there was so much good, it is hard to particulariZe. This attraction, as did Monte Cristo, drew a crowded house, which points again the moral-adyer- Using pays-when, like Conrad com panies, you can deliver the goods
