Cooporf tho mun who has created n, sonsntlon throughout the East, and who Is rapidly acquiring a national ropntatlon, urrlved In St. Louis yesterday. Cooper Is president of tho Cooper Mcdlclno Company, of Dayton, Ohio, nnd hns mndo a fortune within the past fow years estimated at several millions, by tho sale of two prepara tions, which nro claimed to bo very uniiBiial, nnd which aro said to ac complish romarkablo results. Cooper sponds his tlmo traveling from city to city Introducing these remedies nnd In this mnnnor ho hns acquired tho fortune ho now pos sesses. Cooper Is said to bo n very re markablo character, nnd a man with eccentric Ideas; ono of his beliefs Is thnt n certain part of his lncomo should be dovoted to chnrltablo work, and ho Is said to glvo thou sands of dollars to tho poor In each city that ho visits. . His charltablo'work is orlglnnl, ns he Is continually devising now moth ods of making money glvo the most plenBiiro and relief possible. Tho most romarkablo fenturo of Cooper's work Is what Is known ns his "Thrco mlnuto removal of donf ncss." In cities vlBltcd by him with in the past yoar ho has appeared nightly boforo lnrgo audiences and offered to mako any ono hoar within loss thnn thrco minutes, If thoy would come on tho Btngo. Reports from Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Detroit, Cleve land and Louisville, nnd other cities, seem to Indlcnto that Cooper actu ally did as ho claimed. Each night ho Is said to havo re moved, boforo thousands of people, cnBcs of deafness In about thrco min utes' tlmo with ono of his prepara tions. Tho accounts of his work ap peared In all tho loading "dallies" of tho East, nnd pcoplo havo flocked to him from nil parts of tho country.

Qulncy Adams Sawyer. At tho Grand opora houso tonight will bo seen thnt tromondotiBly pop ular rural play, "Qulncy Adams Sawyer," which scorns to bo repent ing' Qvorywhoro Its Now York suc cess nt tho Academy of Music. It hns many strong comedy fcaturoa. yet It poBsosaoit touohos of truo pnthos which provo'that author, pro ducer and the management hnvo lnb ored with good rosults to nppenl to tho sentiment thnt la closo to tho sttrfneo to ovory thentro nudlonce. Tho surroundings, tho mls-on-sceno of tho Inst net. for Instance, are most offectlvo In a novel, straklng nnd poworfitlly appealing way. Tho rising curtain discloses tho oxtorlor of a farmhouso, wrapped in tho folds of a Now England snow storm. A moment is given to this picture, and tho front wall of the house disap pears and tho action of tho play goes on within It. Tho storm with out is indicative of tho stress within, and tho visual Impression intensifies sympathy with tho tribulations of the characters'. Hopo blossoms into fruition, ns tho actions proceeds, nnd Joy suceceds grief. When tho story hns come to Its happy end, the family group, which has been about the supper table, Joins in singing the "Doxology," and an In stant later tho houso exterior Is shown, bathed In soft moonlight. Tho storm without has paBsod, as has that within, and tho smoke which culs lazily from tho chimney betokens peace and comfort. These contrasting scenes aro most magnlfl-. cent in symbolic benuty; like tho fa mous "last scone" of "Shore Acres," tho last act of "Qulncy Adams Saw yer" has moments which will bo ro mombered long after recollections of the main Btory of the play have passed out of tho mind.
