LOnS THIRTY DATS. Talks of the Medicines He Controls That Have Rem a f mrsulon tn the East and Have Made Him the Large Fortune Which He Is Now Bald o St. Louis, May 10. L. T. Cooper, or the "Greatest Cooper," as he Is called, was seen in the hotel this morning by a reporter and proved to be a com paratively young man, as he Is little over SO years of age. Mr. Cooper Is the man who Is said to have created a sensation In eastern cities by his extensive charitable work nd the enormous sale of two prepar ations of which he Is the owner. While talking his face lights dp with smile, almost boyish in Its expres sion, and he seems very young to have acquired the enormous fortune he Is said to possess. When asked about his plans for his visit to St. Louis, he eald: "I shall remain In this city about four weeks. I have come here to In troduce my preparations in my usual way and I will give the public ample opportunity to ascertain whether the claims I make for these medicines can be verified. "It Is one of my beliefs that every successful man should devote a part of his resources In aiding the unfor tunate. I rely to a great extent on the public for Information concerning families, or Individuals who are in need, and I will, therefore, be very grateful to all who will send me the name and address of people who are destitute." Upon being asked about the public removals of deafness, which he has made In Pittsburg and other cities. Mr. Cooper said, "I have appeared each night In the cities I have visited, before audiences that ranged from two to ten thousand people, and have stated that I - would remove in less than three minutes' time, deafness of years' standing. "I have treated In public in this manner over a hundred people each night. I shall do this work In St Louis to some extent, and I will then prove whether I am successful or not It will be time to discuss this work after I have given one of these dem onstrations as my claims would now seem extravagant. "The preparation with which 1 give these demonstrations Is not the one to which I owe my success, as my New Discovery Is my principle rem edy. Ahis preparation Is for the re moval of all forms of stomach trou ble. ' 4'J'ltSI "I have not yet decided where my headquarters will be while here, but will know within the next 24 hours."

Readily Yield to Soothing, Healing Treatment nf HyomeL Bronchial troubles are purely lo cal. They cannot be helped by stomach losing. They are caused by Irritation in the air passages and can be relieved and cured by medicated air alone. In this lies the secret of the great success of Hy-o-mel In the treatment of bronchial troubles. The Hy-o-mel medication, laden with nature's remedies, is breathed through the nent pocket Inhaler that ' comes with every outfit reaching every part of the bronchial tuhjes and killing at once the disease germs. It allays all Irrigation and heals the Inflammation of the mu Scous membrane with astonishing ra pidity. Treatment with sprays, douches and atomlseis In bronchial troubles Is condemned by the best physicians, as they cause further Irritation. The first breath of Hy-o-mel's medicated air seems to sooth the In flammation, stop the cough, and thus relief soon becomes permanent and a cure results, Hy-o-mel pas made many remark able cures in the worst and most chronic forms f bronchial trcubles and Is sold by Tallman A Co., with the same guarantee as they give when Hy-o-mei . Is - purchased for catarrh, that It, to refund the money In case the remedy does not give sat isfaction. Th complete outfit costs but Itlitrj" K-r-. -:., i.trv. . Walla Walla Rector Flays "Mrs. War- ren's Profession." The Walla Walla Bulletin says of Rev. Andreas Bard's disapproval ofw Mrs. Waren's Profession," Bernard Shaw's new play. Rev. Andreas Bard flayed "Mrs. Warren's Profession," Bernard Shaw's play, which will be seen here soon, In his sermon at the Episcopal church yesterday morning. While In Spokane Mr. Bard witnessed the production of this much-discussed drama, and he spoke of It yesterday In no uncertain terms. He gave a brief history of the drama from the days of Sophocles to those of the modern problem play. "The stage Is one of the most powerful factors," he said. "In the evolution of society. The Greeks preached power ful sermons through the presentation of Aeschyles and Euripides. In them the almighty power of the conscience as a test of human action Is classically portrayed. "In the middle nges the morality nlav had the endorsement of the church, and In fact, Illustrated the les' sons of the pulpit. Shakespeare, too, had this Idea In mind when he made Hamlet say 'the play's the thing by which I'll touch the conscience of the king.' King Lear shows the vice of Ingratitude; Macbeth the vanity of Amhltlon: Hamlet the danger of thnuKht without corresponding action, "All these dramas are sermons. But from Shakespeare to Bernard Shaw there Is nulte a toboggan slide. I have seen 'Zaza' and found In It some re deeming ff-atures, although I regret thnt It dwells with unnecessary leisure over the coarser aspects of life. But in 'Mrs. Warren's Profession' 1 have viUnly looked for a star In a gray sky. The dialogues are not only coarse, but nnuveatlng. The 'profession' can not be mentioned without causing a hlush on the check of the most cal loused. Leaving the theater one woul ak himself 'what's the use trying virtue Is a sham; religion hypocrisy society a make-believe; vice a mere circumstance.' "Hernard Shaw holding the torch to modern civilization, reminds me of Ilerostratus, who lacking legitimate talents to mke hlmsaelf Immortal, at Inst set afire the magnificent temple of Diana. I admit that there are many things In modern life that need th hammer of the Iconoclast. But when we apply it we should reconstruct as well as destroy. We should be like the old Jews who, when they rebuilt the temple held In one hand the sword with which they fought the enemy, and In the other the trowel with which they rebuilt the ruins.- There Is but one legitimate writer of problem plays; the man who criticises the weakness of our Ideals, and then shows us how we can do better." NEW RAILRLOAD RULES. Washington Railroad Commission Makes New Orders. A correspondent at Olympla says of the new orders Just issued by the Washington railroad commission: The railroad commission has issued the rules and regulations which have been under consideration for several weeks past, governing the transpor tation of passengers, record of car distribution, passenger depot require ments, bulletining of trains and safe ty appliance devices on the railroads within the State of Washington. The regulations become effective on June 10. Several conferences have been held between the commission and ral'.rond officials during the prep aration of those regulations, and while concessions were granted by the commission In some particulars wherein railroad passenger officials convinced the commissioners that certain proposed rules would work needless hardships, the rules as fi nally promulgated are substantially the same as Originally drafted by the commission. Tbe rule requires the Issuance of interchangeable mileage books, which has been under discussion for some time past, has already been rut Into effect and the books are now on sale. Rule 10 requires the railroads to have the rules and regulations print ed and a copy posted at each pas senger depot In tho state. It Is probil able, however, that the rnllroad com mission itself will have these notices printed and sufficient copies supplied the . railroads, on upplieatlon, for posting In their depots.
