SuICse&O, oCts "a, 1UOts-OpccidAs-
The people Of this city are greatly
excited over a number Of remarkable
cures which have been effected by q
wealthy philanthropist by the name
Of Cooper.
His headquarters at the Public
Drug Store Is besieged with crowds
Of men and women eager to be cured
of their ills.
Cooper is a quiet, gentlemanly per-
son, with the appearance of stu
dent, rather than a business man. He
Is apparently about thirty-one or two
years of age. He first came into pub
lie notice by his philanthropic work
among the poor. The large fortune
he possesses has made it possible for
him to distribute many wagon loads
Of food and clothing among those in
INDECENT circumstances since his ar
rival in Chicago.
The first that was known of Coop
er's power over disease was when Mr..
John Stauber, of 1907 Broadway, Gin
cinnati, Ohio, who was in this city
on business, neclared that Cooper,
the philanthropist, was the same
person who saved his life last March
after he had been given up to die by
his physicians. Mr.. Stauber stated
that last March the doctors had told
him he Would not live until May, as
he was In a terrible condition. every
one said he had consumption he had
nasty cough, with frequent hem
orrhages, dizzy spells, and was so
weak that the least exertion or ex-
element would completely PROSTATE
him; there were severe pains in the
stomach and back, and his kidneys
were in bad condition.
"Aftes-my physicians give me up,'n
said Mr.. Stauber, 'Mr. Cooper heard
Of my case and called to see me. He
left q peculiar medicine which be-
gan taking and Immediately began
to improve. My cough stopped, my
stomach no longer distressed me, and
my kidneys were in perfect condi-
tion. 1 gained seventeen pounds in
seven weeks, and to-day 1 am as well
as ever was in my life."
A few days after this Mr.. RI.
Sidwell, a justice of the peace living
at 1922 Dearborn street, reported that
Cooper had cured him of severe
case Of stomach trouble with few
doses of his peculiar medicine.
His trouble had been of long stand
ing and he had tried many different
doctors and medicines without re-
lief. From the first dose of Cooper's
medicine he began to improve, and is
to-day in apparently apparently per-
feet health.
This was followed by the still more
remarkable cure of Mr.. Thomas Web
ster, employed at the Omaha Pack
ing company, and living at 5210 South
Morgan street. Mr.. Webster had
suffered for years with pain in his
stomach, dizziness, palpitation of
heart, backache, and all other trou-
bles. He came to Cooper's head
quarters and displayed an enormous
tapeworm, which he said had passed
from his system after he had taken a
few doses of the Cooper medicine.
Mr.. Webster said all his suffering
had left him as If by magic and he
felt like new being.
The report of these remarkable
cures flew through the city like wild
fire, and the Public Drug Store, where
Cooper is making his headquarters,
is besieged by people suffering from
all manner of ailments.

POLICE TRY BLOOD HOUNDS.
May Use Dogs as Part of the Detective
Force of City.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Police Com.
missioners Bingham has practically de-
cided, if the experiments now being made
with bloodhounds prove successful, TO
add corps of four footed detectives to
the force in this city. For three weeks
at a small town up the State blood
hounds have been daily set to work fol-
lowing trails OF make-believe criminals,
and when the Commissioners has re.
ceived a complete report as to the achi-
evements of the dogs, he will come to a
decision as to the employment of the
animals in running down murderers anI
other criminals in New York.
1t is set forth that the perpetrators of
many deeds of violence that have shock
ed the residents of this city in recent
months, especially crimes against WON
en- and children, might noSv be behind
the bars had keen-scented bloodhounds
been ready to take the trail immedi-
ately when the crime came to light.

NAVY PAY STANDARD FINE.

WASHINGTON, Sept, S,-Will the
Government, through the Navy Depart.
ment. be compelled 10 help the Standard
Oil Company to pay its $2o,0000o0 tine
recently imposed upon it BY Judge
Lands! This is question that has
arisen in the minds of the officials OF
the Navy Department since it became
apparent that the oil company is the
lowest bidder, through an agency or
auxiliary company, on large amount
OF lubricating oil, for which proposals
were opened at the Navy Department
yesterday afternoon.
Although the Standard Oil Company
did not appear openly in the bidding, it
was represented by the Vacuum Oil
Company of New York. This company
was by far the lowest bidder on 100000
gallons of oil to be delivered to the At
lantic coast navy yards and stations, its
price being $4,000 whereas its closest
competitor. the New York Lubricating
Company, named figure OF sl0lG75.
1t was also the lowest bidder on $4,000
gallons, to be delivered to the Pacific
coast navy yards and stations, naming
a price OF S3s,7s0, as against S4O.775
named BY the New York Lubricating
Company.

Another interesting question raised by
the adverse Judgment reported, is
whether the uuconstitutionality OF the
bin. as a whole, NvNes the efficacy and
operation of the Pilot Commission law
which il was supposed to have repealed,
Il is held by such lawyers as United
States Senator Gearin and ex-united
States Senator Joe Simon, both attor'
neys for the late, lamented law, that
the Judgment OF the Supreme Court be.
! ing comprehensive adverse opinion, it
affects the full scope and tenor OF the
bill, leaving no part nor parcel of it
operative nor existant, and therefore OF
no force in perfecting that repeal and
that the old law under which pilots and
pilotage were governed, is still the law
OF the state. We sought opinions from
. leading local sources last night on this
| important phase Of the subject but the
matter had not been weighed here and
an avowal in line was not to be had.
But it would seem that the gentlemen
quoted have the true gist OF the situa-
ton and have expressed it, as indicated.
The whole city is unqualifedly glad
the vexei question OF the Port OF Colum-
Ina is laid, once for all. and trusts the
great business it was designed to hog
and hamper, may develop and flourish
when and where and how the best wis
dom OF whole section involved, may de-
termine in all honesty, sagacity and with
truer sense of the varied interests at
stake.
