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." For sale by
Frank Hart and leading druggists.
PENALTY OF POPULARITY.
Dr. Robert Koch Noted German
Scientist Bothered by Over Solicitous
Friends.
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." ,

ration which has made a similar rec
ord to the above wherever introduced,
