The new theory advanced by L. T. Cooper relative to the human stom ach has attracted such widespread attention that the public in cities visited by the young man has been joined by many physicians in a dis cussion of his beliefs and medicines. Mr. Cooper says that human health is dependent almost entirely upon the stomach. He says that no disease can be conquered without first alle viating all stomach disorders. He further says that most men and wom en of this generation are half-sick, owing to degenerate stomachs. And lastly, he claims that his New Dis covery medicine will rejuvenate the human stomach in 90 days. Cooper has been traveling from one city to another .conducting in each what he calls a campaign of educa tion. For the past year he has met the public in the larger cities of the country, and his success has been phenomenal Thousands of people have flocked to his headquarters wherever he has gone, and the sale of his medicine has been beyond any thing of the kind ever before wit nessed. Possibly the most interesting fea ture of the attention this young man has attracted is what his army of followers, whom he has converted to his beliefs through his medicines, have to say on the subject. The fol lowing statements are from two well known residents of Chicago and Boston, respectively, and the enthusi asm of these is characteristic oli taste good. Anyone who knows what of a dull pain that I could not quite understand. Then there was a dull headache, and my mind seemed to be wandering continually. I could not eat, and what little solid food I did eat I could not retain on my stomach. I tried every remedy I could think of, and also tried out a number of patent medicines, but without any ap parent result It was through one of my friends that I heard of Cooper's preparation, and I immediately de cided to try some of it. It is two weeks since I thook my first dose of it, and I feel like a new woman. The headache seems to have disappeared, and the pain in my stomach along with it. The medicine is worth its weight in gold, and I want to thank Mr. Cooper for what he has done for me." Mr. Edwin F. Morse, of 20 Oakley street, Dorchester, a suburb of Bos ton, says: "For three years I had not a well day. My stomach was in frightful shape; the mere thought of food would nauseate me, and I really had a horror of anything to eat. All solid food would cause me extreme indigestion, bloating and gas on my stomach, and nothing tasted right Some time ago I got some of this Cooper's medicines, about which there is so much talk. I actually feel as well and strong as a boy ever since the first bottle. Every sign of stom ach trouble has disappeared, and I have a hearty appetite and eat three square meals; every thing seems to change; Mr. Nikkendcr of the Ar meria going to the Heather, and Mr. . Amcratram, of the latter vessel tak ing the billet on the flagship of that fleet. The French ship Andre Teodorc is on the way up from the Bay City on the hawsers of the tug Dauntless, to load wheat out of Portland for Liver pool and she must fill her charter date of March 2nd, hence the des patch used by her owners.

Mack, of 3201 State street, Chicago, says: "I have been suffering for 12 years from a combi nation of stomach troubles, catarrh and constipation. I had a gnawing pain in the pit of my stomach, a sort, chronic indigestion is can appreciate what this means to me, I consider this the most remarkable medicine I ever heard of."

Id the big pass tarpon can beat bo caught from near the bottom of the channel and should bo Ashed for with fifty feet of line and a heavy tinker. In shallow water the tarpon leaps high in air the Instant ho feels the hook, but In the pats ho often flgbta for a minute or two before coining to the surface. More than once when I had coine to fear that my tarpon was a shark he has suddenly shot above the surface like a bullet from a gun and in the first wild shako of his hoad thrown hook and bait fifty feet In the air, and oue even sent a four ounce leaden sinker dying over my head from nearly twice that distance. Other tar pon when struck came straight up ' from the bottom, one grazing our gun- j wale as he rose and another leaping j over the stern of the canoe. As toon as a tarpon was tired enough to let us , pall the canoe beside him wo removed the book from bis mouth and let him swim home to bis family. It happened once that a tarpon was less tired than i wo had assumed.- On that occasion we swam home, and be bad a good man story to tell bis friends. ; It had been counted a poor year for i tarpon, yet in fifteen consecutive days j of fishing we were fast to forty-four : tarpon, each of which had Jumped for as from one to twelve times. This I high water mark of twelve Jumps was I made by a tarpon which was stlmn- j lated to his later efforts by the pre- ence of a pursuing shark, and the twelfth Jump was a double number, j There was commotion in the crimsoned I water, new vigor at the other end of j my line, and it was an hour later when I finally landed on a sand bar a shark with an aldermanlc stomach. A knife drawn across this distended organ dis closed the tarpon in sections, with the hook still fast in his Jaw, and enabled the camera man to photograph to gether the subjects be had recently photographed separately. Although this shark was only one-fifth the size of our big hammerhead, yet he made bnt two bites of his victim. Our work at Boca Grando ended with the red letter day of the season of all seasons. I was fishing in the pass with fifty feet of line and the bait was dl rectly under the canoe when a tarpon struck fiercely, quickly carried away a hundred more feet of line and then swam so swiftly toward us that I fear ed from the loosened lino that he had escaped. Then, fifty feet from the ca noe, there shot Into the air a giant tar pon, measuring, as we learned after ward, an even seven feet Up, up, np, he rose until the camera seemed to be pointed at the zenith, and before the rattled camera man could get bis aim the silver king had turned gracefully in the air and was plunging downward. The captain swears that he saw, swing ing clear of the water, the ribbon which marked twenty-five feet on the line as it hung plnmb down from the. tarpon. Once I gave my own estimate of toe height of the Jump to a group of friends and after a glance at their grieved expressions appealed to the one of most experience on the coast and with the tarpon. After a single mo ment of hesitation he remarked firmly: "We fishermen must stand together, 1 believe the story." A. W. Dimock In Appleton's. When "Drammert" Come Easy. At the Players' club in New Xork one evening there was a guest from out of town, a playwright well known for bis extraordinary facility In turn ing out the alleged "drammers" that do the "ten-twenty-thirt" drculta. It is no uncommon thing for this pro ducer to grind out five or six of his plays annually. Some one Innocently asked the play wright if It was rather difficult to find new ideas for bis plays.
