V THE 'MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA, OREGON. FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1908. S101EN ASHORE !!! , Ken From the Battleships joying Themselves En ACCORDING TO THEIR LIKES finme Go Bueev Riding, Others Horseback and Quite a Number In vaded a Bicycle Shop and Rode (or Hours Round the Town. SAN DIEGO, Cal.. April ld-The formalities of official welcome are at an end, and the big parade a thing of the past, the officers and men of the Atlantic, fleet began today to enjoy themselves largely according to their bent, although many hospitable re ceptions were planned in their honor. The sailors came ashore in large num bers, a quarter section of the entire force entitled to liberty being allowed to land. The sailor men find many nique ways in which to amuse them selves, but generally seek out some thing that the limited quarters of a ship cannot afford. Some have lto cfay been riding horses at a high gal lop through the street and looking extremely picturesque in their blue blouses and flapping, bell-shaped trousers. Quite a party of the sailors invaded a bicycle establishment and rode the wheels around the city and outlying roads for hours. Buggy rides also were popular with the wen. The uniforms were, everywhere to be seen. Refreshment booths with lemonade, fruits and dainties, to be had for the asking, were erected about the city and proved extremely popu lar. ' - Seventy of the officers of the fleet started off on an automobile picnic shortly after 8 o'clock this morning and will be gone all day. They were taken to a ranch some thirty-five miles away and entertained by a num ber of the young clubmen of the city. The officers' wive3 and families who were in the city entertained at lunch eon by the ladies' auxiliary. Boat races on the bay and a baseball game this afternoon between the team from the battleship Ohio and a San Diego nine divided tthe interest of the sail ors. ' Tonight an elaborate display of fire works will mark the end of the third day of the fleet's visit. ' The ships were thrown open to visitors today between the hours of "10 A. 51. and 8 P. M., and were open to sightseers. Visiting hours will be ebserved tomorrow. MARVELOUS SECRET. Discovery of Process to Change Liv- ing Organisms Into Metal. CHICAGO, April 16-The ' Inter Ocean today says: Wolfram C. Fuchs, an X-ray ex pert, of Chicago, who died a year ago with X-ray cancer, a martyr to science, discovered a mervelous se erte by which he was able to work certain chemical changes in living or ganisms that transform them into Hietal. For two years before his death he conducted a series of experi anents, which reached their climax in the metalization of a rose. R.. C. Fuchs, his brother, took up the work where he lett ort, ana brought the secret process to prac- tical perfection. Mr. -Fuchs is plan- REMARKABLE RECORD MADE BY COOPER IN MINNEAPOLIS The remarkable success that has attended L. T. Cooper during the past year has not been confined to' any one locality, but is -so widespread that the young man is now. a well-known figure in most of the leading cities f the country. . Mr. Cooper believes that the stom ach is the foundation for most ill health, and claims that his prepara tion, by regulating the stomach, is a true specific for most diseases. Trie following extract from the Tribune of Minneapolis gives an idea of the sur prising number of people who are ac cepting Cooper's theory. Tie article mr,c t,n nf manv that appeared dur- Coooer's stay in Minneapolis, and is as follows: "The sale of Cooper's preparation is now phenomenal in this city, and an estimate made today seems to in dicate beyond all doubt that it will equal the large figures reported from ning to metalixe a human body, wrticn he proposes to put on exhibition in a downtown shop; window. The body will be that of A. Hauper. , By the direct process of metalixation it will be changed into a statute, which, to all external appearances will be of solid gold. The cost of this strange conversion of a human corpse, into metai according to ' the inventor's estimate,,, will be $300, CHINA'S AWAKENING. Much Faster . Than, Japan was Missionaries say. , so CHICAGO. Aprjfl 16 That China is undergoing an awakening much greater in extent and more rapid in its progress than that which in Japan has startled the world during the last generation, was asserted by several speakers at the Interstate Men's Mis sionary convention in the. Centenary Methodist Episcopal Church yester day, v Three of the speakers were the Rev. W. N. Brewster, ofHankow, China; Dr. John R. Mott, head of the stu dent volunteer movement in America and Bishop J. W. Bashford, of Shang hai, China. ... t , All agreed that in the last three years there had been as great changes in many lines in China as in the pre vious decade and that in the field for missionary effort is unequalcd in the world.' Bishop Bashford prophesied that at, the present rate-ot progress me Chinese would soon outstrip us even in political matters. The fight against opium now being made by the Clinese was compared to the fight in this country against liquor, much to the advantage of the Chinese. - Rheumatic Pains Relieved. Mrs. Thos. Stentonl postmaster of Pontypool, Ont., writes: "For the M If .. past eight years 1 sutierea irom rheumatic pains, and during that time I uesd many different liniments and remedies for the cure of rheumatism. Last summer I procured a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and got more relief from it than anything I have ever used, and cheerfully rec ommend this liniment to all sufferers from rheumatic pains."

CHICAGO, April 16 "I am liter ally driven from Chicago, where I came for a week's rest, by over-solicitous friends and citizens and news paper reporters, and I am obliged to leave Chicago at once," testily declar ed Dr. Robert Koch, the German scientist, last night. He packed five large trunks a'nd had them sent to St. Louis by ex press, tagged: "Hold until called for in two or three weeks" Dr. Koch then paid his bill, bundled his wife and brother into a carriage and was driven to the Union Station, where he board- led aitrain for Milwaukee. The interruptions which so disturb ed the scientist reached a climax yes terday when a party of local scientists and several citizens stormed his apartments with pressing invitations for banquets and social gatherings. INSURANCE COMPANY LOST. SAN FRANCISCO, April 16.-The California Wine Association was awarded a verdictin Judge Murphy's court yesterday of $2,500 against the Commercial Union Insurance Com- Pittsburg during the 30 days Mr. Cooper spent in that city. "During the past twenty-twq days Mr. Cooper has been in Minneapolis, the sale of his preparation has aver aged about two thousand bottles a day. When the amount of medicine disposed of throughout the state is added to this, the amount will be doubled. Therefore, the young man has sold in 22 days 88,000 bottles of his medicine in the State df Minne sota alone which is a truly remarkable record. - ',..; ......, "During the past week so many hundreds of Minneapolis people have been calling to thank Cooper for the good he has accomplished with .his medicine, that it is safe to say that his visit will long be remembered by the sick of the city." , We sell the famous Cooper prepa ration which has made a similar rec ord to the above wherever introduced, Charles Rogers & Son. pany. wine was stored at Fifth and Bluxon-strccts and was destroyed in the great fire.

' i " : -'V Mr. Fred. ,C.' Hanrahan, a promi nent druggist of Portsmouth, Va.. says: "For the past six years have sold and recommended Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarhoea Remedy. It is a great remedy and one of the best patent medicines ' on the market. I handle some others for the same purposes that pay me a larger profit, but this remedy is so sure to effect a cure, and my custom er so certain to appreciate my recom mending it to him, that I give it the pVeference."
