HOW HE HAS
MADE A SUCCESS
L. I. Cooper Tells Chicago Reporter Why
He Accomp1ishes So Much.

No man in recent years has been
more successful in restoring human
health than L.. +. Cooper. During his
stay in Chicago, and while he was
meeting thousands of people daily, he
gave the following reason for the re-
markable demand for his medicine to
reporter:
Mr.. Cooper said: "My New Discov-
cry is successful because it corrects
the stomach. My theory is that few
can be sick if the digestive apparatus
is working properly. 1t naturally fol-
lows that few can be we'll with a poor
digestion.
L know from experience that most
Of the tired, half-sick people that are
so common nowadays have haIf-sick
stomachs. Put the stomach in shape,
and nature does the rest. The result
is general good health. My medicine
does this. That is why fifty thousand
people here in Chicago are using it
who never heard of me until a month
ago."
Among the fifty thousand mentioned
by Mr.. Cooper who used his medicine
in Chicago is Mrs. Hilda Pflueger, liv-
ing at 1908 Ainslie Avenue. This is
the statement she makes concerning
her experience with the medicine:
i have been sick for six years with

CHANGE IN RATES

A new table of insurance assessment
rates, cheaper for the young majority
of members, and correspondingly more
expensive for the old minority, was
adopted by the Minnesota grand lodge
Ancient Order of United Workmen, af-
ter several days of active discussion a,
their meeting in St. Paul last week.
The effect of the new schedule will
be that-on the basis of five annual
assessments-al members less than A
years old will pay less than they pay
now and that all members Al years
old, or older will pay more. At the
age of so this increase will amount to
one-third only. But at the age of
60 members will pay two and one
third times their present rates. And
at the age Of IS or more members
will pay three and third times the
The Sauk Centre herald., 1908-02-27
rates they are paying now.

rates they are paying now.
The rate, one should understand
does not increase annually for each
member. He will pay when the law
becomes effective the rate designated
for person of his age at that time
and he will pay at exactly the same
rate each year thereafter however
long he may live.
The number of assessments last
year was "a, the previous year, 23
Each assessment, was at the rate of
so cents per $1,000 of insurance for
every member regardless of his age.
In other words, everybody paid $12
last year on $1,000 of insurance. Ii
the new law is finally adopted and ii
it then goes into effect July that
being the earliest possible date-the
1S-year-old member who paid 81 a
year last year will pay but S. year
after the 1st of next July. The men,
ber aged 80 will pay s7.O5 instead of
$12 a year The Workman, 40 years
old will be assessed $1O.15 a year, in
stead of $12 The member who is
Al years of age, however, will pay
S12.05 a year-a trifling increase. For
80 years the figures will be SIG instead
of $12; for 55 years, $21 instead of
$12; for 60, $2S.2O, and for 65 or more
$3.50 instead of $12. And the many
old members who carry policies of 81
900 will pay twice the foregoing fig
ures-totals amounting, for members
IS years old, to $794O a year, in the
place of $24.

MAN IN KENTUCKY MAKES

HENDERSON, KY. March 1.-THE
feeling against negroes in Webster

news of the death of Jack Barry, of
Louisville, in an Evansville hospital.
Barry was one Of two travelling men
shot by negroes in ambuscade near
Diron, KY, Saturday night. Harvey

STATE CAN'T USE
THEIR POLICE POWERS

WASHINGTON, March 16.-By the
vote Of three to two the sub-commit-
tee of the Senate Committee on the
Judiciary today declared unconstitu-
tional all Of the bills intended to re-
move federal barriers against states
exercising control of their police
powers for the regulation of the liq-
uor traffic. Hearings on these meas
ures have been held covering almost
the entire present session and the
bills were advocated by representa-
tives of practically all the states
where there is a strong prohibition
sentiment. The members OF the sub
committee are Senators Knox, Mel
son, Fulton. Bacon and Raynor.

marked the high tide for shipments
during that month $4,000 tons going
to the markets. There was a de
| crease for September of 10000 tons
and a still further decrease in Octo-
| Der. but November shows the flatter.
ing total of $1,000 tons.
During the months of January and
February of this year there has been
shipped from the Mt Pleasant office
alone ever $4,000 tons of rock of which
more than $4,000 tons was for export
and about 10000 tons for domestic
markets.
Practically all of the phosphate rock
that is shipped from points on the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad
comes from the counties of Maury,
Williamson and Giles, a very small
amount being shipped from Lawrence
county. 1t is therefore safe to esti-
mate that approximately seventy per
cent of the rock was shipped from
Maury county as the industry in the
other counties will not compare to
that in this county. Those who are
thoroughly familiar with the industry
in this county are of the opinion that
the total shipments from the county
last year will aggregate not less than
$50 900 tons.
The average price of phosphate rock
last year, loaded on the cars, was APP
proximately IS per ton. Therefore
the total value OF the rock shipped
from Tennessee by the Louisville and
Nashville railroad was more than So !
100000. OF this sum not less than
50. 250, 900 came to Maury county This

is PLAYING BALL
MILITARY SQUAD rs PRAcTIcINe
EVERY AFTERNOON FOR THE
COMING SEASON.
SOME GOOD MATERIAL DEVELOPS
First Game Will Be on April
at Home With vandy
Scrubs.

] The ideal spring afternoons Of the
past week have been utilized by Coach
Hamilton at the Columbia Military
Academy in preparing his base ball
squad to mop up" with the various
teams which they will meet on the
diamond during the coming two
months. The academy ball park re-
sounds every afternoon with the music
of the ball and the bat the sweetest
melody In the world to the apprecia-
tive fan. The boys are being given
several hours daily of hard practice
and this will continue, the weather
permitting, until the opening of the
season.
There are from twenty to twenty
ave promising players from which the
team will be finally selected. Some
Of them have shown remarkable pro-
ficiency IN swinging the willow, while
others have demonstrated their SUI
periority both in the outfeld and in
the inheld The pitching star Is not
quite up to the standard desired yet
but 1t Is improving and when the
season opens it is expected that there
will be a star Of three good slabmen.
Some of the promising material for
this position have speed, but lack con-
troll, while others lack speed, but al
together it is expected that the "box
artists" of the team will show up
well.
There are six players from last
years team who are available for use
this season. They are among the
best who played last year and all
promise better work than they did last
season. These are Black, Elosua,
Burns, Dyer, Brock and Bob Taylor
OF the new men Moore is showing up
well behind the bat: Lee Is doing
some creditable work in the outfield,
while Foote has manifested a peculiar
talent for stopping everything that be-
longs to the infeld territory.
The pitching staff will probably be
of Bob Taylor, Dedman and
Neal The first games Of the season
will take place Friday and Saturday,
April 8 and 4, when the team will
cross bats with the Vanderbilt Scrubs
on their home grounds for two games.
On April II the team will meet
Bell Academy on the lo-
cal grounds and on April Is their OPP
ponents will be- the Mathews School
of Gainesville. The first game away
rom home will be played with Haw-
xins at Gallatin on April 25. The
,hree ensuing games will be played
here and will be with Wallace on
