COOPER AROUSES INTEREST
OF QUEEN CITY RESIDENTS

An adequate idea of the intense in

young Mr.. Cooper during the past year
with his theories and medicines is
Given in the following article which
, appeared in the Cincinnati Post while
Cooper was introducing his ideas to
| the people of that city. The article
avs: The beginning of Mr.. Cooper's
second week in Cincinnati gives every
Indication that he is to enjoy the same
| 'stonishing success here as in other
cities.
| From the first day of his visit the
crowds that call to see him have stead
| lily increased, until now it has reached
a point where several thousand talk
with him each day. The entire city
seems to have become interested in his
theory that the human stomach is
degenerate, and he already has an
army of followers in Cincinnati who
seem positive that his claims are cor
lrect.
"A number of Cncinnations We're
interviewed at Cooper's headquarters

statements. showing their intense faith
in Cooper's preparations, were secured.

statements and are characteristic of

SAN DIEGO, April 14.-Hours be-
ore the time set for the arrival of the
fleet. hundreds of people are clustered
out on Point Iona and the Point OF
Rocks to secure the best spots to view
the coming of the fleet. Soon after
dawn many were on their way with
binoculars and lunch baskets prepared
or a wait.
The city never looked so beautiful
The finishing touches were put on
this morning and the city is a mass OF
bunting and streamers of gold.
Although the fleet was not expected
to arrive before one o'clock, hundreds
of craft were out on the bay by eight
o'clock. Scores of sea going vessels
took on loads of passengers and went
down the coast to meet the fleet.
The Coronado hotel is packed to the
