LOCAL MATRON'S
LIFE A BURDEN
Renewed Hope Came to Her Re-
Gently Through Eastern-
er's Preparation
Would Like to Tell Her Expert
ence to Every One in
San Francisco

The astonishing record made
throughout the east by the Cooper
preparation is rapidly being duplicated
in San Francisco. Cooper seems to
have convinced an immense number of
people that his theory is correct and
that his medicines will do what he
claims.
The most interesting feature of the
tremendous amount of medicine Cooper
is now selling at the Owl Drug Store.
in the Phelan building. where he is
meeting the public, are the statements
made by those who have been taking
the young mans preparation and who
have become enthusiastic converts to
his beliefs and his treatment.
The following Is among statements
of this character made by some of
Cooper's callers Monday afternoon.
Mrs. e. L Lewis OF 1911 Guerrero
street said: II am well again, after
six years constant suffering with
chronic indigestion. When I say I am
well mean it. for I am today in per-
feet health. For the last two weeks
have eaten meat twice day. with no
bad results whatsoever. Prior to this
l had not been able to touch meat in
any form for two years.
When 1 got the Cooper treatment
1 was a physical wreck. I had grown
so thin and weak that 1 was afraid
I had consumption. The gas in my
stomach was at times so bad that it
pressed on my heart. causing intense
pain. The slightest exertion would
make my heart pound until I grew
faint and I was sure 1 had heart
disease.
Il began to feel better after taking
the medicine four days. From that
time on 1 have been getting better
every day. For the past week 1 have
been happy and we'll. with no signs
of indigestion or heart trouble. and
with a fine appetite / now wake in
the morning anxious for breakfast and
full Of energy. 1 eat a big breakfast,
in fact l eat three good meals day
I have gained weight so fast that 1
do not look like the same person.
When 1 began this wonderful medi-
cine my life was a burden; now every
minute is a pleasure. l can never say
enough about 1t. Any one who has
been sick can realize what health
means. especially if they have had
chronic indigestion. 1 should like TO
tell every one in San Francisco about
Mr.. Cooper's medicine; 1t is marvellous.
Any one who has stomach trouble and
does not try it is missing a chance
of a lifetime"

KILLS SELF RATHER
THAN SCHW[RIN
Captain Robinson of the Indiana
Dreaded Wrath of His SUI
perior Officer
4 am afraid to face schwerin. "

This statement was made by Ceptain
J. f. Robinson of the Indiana to his
third officer James Walsh, and was
given in testimony by Mate Walsh
yesterday before United States Inspec-
tors of Hulls and Boilers Bolles and
mine the cause of the loss of the
steamer Mate Walsh further testified
that Captain Robinson spoke to him
frequently about the loss of his ship,
and intimated that he would never re-
turn to San Francisco, expressing at
odd times the definite statement that
he feared his superior.
Besides the fear of facing R. P.
Schwerin, vice president and general
manager of the Pacific Mail steamship
company, Captain Robinson worried
over the prospect of his license being
revoked by the local board of inspec-
tors But this was secondary to the
dread he had of standing in front of
r P Schwerin and hearing what that
official of the steamship company had
to say on the loss OF the Indiana. In
stead he chose death, and after all
was accomplished that was in his
power, he calmly fired a. outlet through
Second officer Charles Santana said
that there was a heavy fog at the
time the vessel struck and that they
had been running at full speed with
out sounding fog whistles. He, too,
after the wreck, noticed that Captain
Robinson was worried, but his superior
did not confide in him in any way.
Mate Walsh, before telling of the
fear Captain Robinson had for
Schwerin. gave in detail all that hap
pened from the time the fog settled
and his return from the cruiser AL
bany from Magda1ena bay. Mate Walsh
also testified that the steamer was run
ming at full speed and not sounding
the fog whistles.
In fact. when the fog settled during
Mate Walsh's watch he notified Cap
tain Robinson, and asked him If he
should sound the whistles. The cap
tain said that it was not necessary
down there, and returned to bed. 1t
was the contention of Mate Walsh that
if the whistles had been sounded he
could have told from the echo that he
was nearing the land. Allen Fl. Brown
and William Afford, quartermasters,
who were on duty in the wheelhouse,
gave the same testimony.
On account of several of the wit
nesses being at sea the hearing was
continued indefnitely
