DeleSate'S Report.

Madam President and Ladies of the
Patton Anderson Chapter:
The 18th annual convention of the
U. ID. q. held in the beautiful and
progressive City of Jacksonville was
a grand success in every particular.
Martha Reed Chapter certainly did
herself proud on this occasion. We
were so highly entertained and had
so many various social functions to
attend, that very little time was left
to transact business; consequently,
the last evening, which was Histori-
cal evening, after listening to
lengthy program, we had to then
proceed to business; and before de-
parting from the auditorium of the
Windsor hotel, believe ME, ladies,
when | say 1T was two o'clock in the
morning. was invited by Mrs.
Bishop Weed to take luncheon with
her the next day, an invitation
which | accepted in the early part of
the evening; but when l had re-
mained up until two o'clock in the
morning, | simply had to decline the
invitation on the plea that / didn't
know whether l would be able to
wake up the next day, at all, after
having led such a strenuous life for
the past week.
No doubt, you have all read q full
account of what was done. and the
program of entertainments, so it
would be useless for me to mention
same.
The Taliaferro reception, also the
reception rendered us by the Wo-
mans Club, as well as the Elks lun-
cheon, was grand and lovely beyond
description. You may rest assured,
your youthful delegate enjoyed them
all to the fullest extent. But MOTH
ing, ladies, appealed to my better ma
ture more than the tea so beautifully
arranged at the Old Soldiers Home,
where | had the pleasure of seeing
for the first time, the famous Patton
Anderson Room, furnished so COM
fortably by our own chapter. And
wish to state right here, that it is the
only chapter that has furnished
room thus far, and | didn't lose an
opportunity to inform the people of
the fact, for which all honor is due
our most able, indefatigable worker,
and beloved President, Mrs. Patton
Anderson. To look upon those dear
old soldiers who fought so bravely
through the war, attired in their new
uniforms of grey, especially for this
occasion, and to see the tears roll
down their borrowed cheek as the va
rious little girls recited in a charm
ing and touching manner, beautiful
and appropriate poems for the occa-
sion. sent a thrill through my entire
being that | never before eXpe-
rienced.
Madam President, ard Ladies. |
return from the convention a more
enthusiastic worker for the u. d. g.,
and especially for the patton An
derson Chapter" than ever before.
The only thing that marred my
pleasure, in the least, during the con-
vention, was the absence of my sis
ter delegates, Mrs. Coke, Mrs. Will
lard, and last, but not least, our
most highly esteemed and distin-
guished President, Mrs. Patton An
derson. MRS. S. J. HILBURN.
Delegate.

PHYSICIANS DISAGREE
Different Opinions on Cooper's Remarkable Sue
cess Held by Cincinnati Medical Men.

proved very obstinate in treatment
81 am the last man on earth tC
stand in the way of anything that
may prove for the public good simply
through professional prejudice. and
| am inclined to give Cooper and his
preparations credit as deserving to
some extent the popular demonstra-
tion that has been accorded them in
this city"
Another well known physician who
was seen took the opposite view of
the "Cooper-mania," as he called it,,
which now has this city in its grip.
He said: II can only liken the pres
ent state of affairs to certain kind
of hallucination. For want of bet
ter name / might call it Cooper
mania" The people of Cincinnati
seem to be firm in the belief that this
man Cooper has health corked up in
a bottle
"Some of them imagine that he
has completely cured them of vari-
Gus ills judging from their state
ments. 1t is beyond me to say why
the city has gone crazy over the man.
1t may be safely put down, / think,
to one of the passing fads that so Of
ten attack the American public"
Sooner or later the people are
bound to regain their senses and will
then realize the reputable physician
is the one to whom their health had
best be entrusted"
In the meantime Cooper meets sew
eral thousand people daily, and only
smiles when statements of the above
character are quoted to him. His
charitable work still continues TO be
very extensive.

Cincinnati, O., May l6.-The aston.
is1ing sale of Cooper's preparations
in this city has now reached such
immense figures that the medical
fraternity at large have become fore
ed into open discussion of the man
and his preparations.
The physicians as whole seem to
be divided with regard to the young
mans success in Cincinnati-some be-
ing willing to credit him for what he
has accomplished, while Others as
sert that the interest he has aroused
is but a passing, fad which cannot
last, and which will die out as quick
ly as it has sprung up.
The opinion Cf these two factions
is very well voiced in the statements
made recently by two of number of
physicians who were interviewed on
the subject.
DR.. J. E. Carass when questioned
about the matter said: II have not
been believer in proprietary prepa-
rations heretofore nor can | say that

Judge M. /. Coke was selected as
chairman of the meeting and RI. E..
Merryday secretary.
A general review of the situation
filled the workers for this cause with
encouragement, and they are deter

tematic campaign against the licen-
sed saloon. We believe that our

for moral reasons this fight must be
won, and if they feel it must be won,
it will be.

mittee of able, influential, deter
mined citizens to press this matter to
a successful issue.

After the adjournment of the meet
ing, the newly selected committee
was organized by the selection of Mr..

SONORA SETTINGS.

The Pedrazzini Company has been incorporated at Phoenix, to take over and operate Las Chispas mines, in the Arizpe district.
 During the storm of three weeks ago the engineers of the c. R. r. & P. Railway lost team of mules and a wagon load of provisions in Cocospera river.
 Mir. Luis Proto brought from the Cocospera ranch Wednesday of the present week 300 head of fine beef cattle, that were crossed over the line at Nogales, and shipped to Mir. Nidifer at Bakersfield, California. Brady-Levin Co. negotiated the sale.
 Mir. Hugh White of Chicago, formerly a resident of Nogales, having been one of the owners of the Nogales smelter when that was in operation, has been in So- nora this week visiting his anti mony mine, in the Altar district, about thirty miles west from Ca borca. MT. White has an exten- sive deposit of that metal, and has been working there with twenty men for nearly a year, having shipped five hundred tons of ore within that time, and having another five hundred tons ready for shipment, part of it being already at Caborca, en route to the railway. He hauls the ore to San ta Ana by wagons, thence by rail to New York, the market being at the latter place. The ores are of high grade, and with the enlarged demand in the arts due to the wonderful and world wide pros perity, it realizes handsome prices.
