C. Harris, hla private secre tary, waa ill the'city yesterday at the Exchange and referring to Mr. Coop er's coming visit, said: "Prominent business men and drug-' gists 6t Montgomery and other Ala bama cities have for sometime been very anxious to have Mr- Cooper visit here and give the people a»f your city the same benefits of his study and medicine that be has given the people of Atlanta, Birmingham, Louisville, Nashville, and other cities, whers he has been for the greater part of the past year helping the hundreds of thousands of people who Hive sought his advice. “Finally yisldlhg to the solicitations of these Montgomery ' clttsens Mr. Cooper has made deflnlte'arrangements to come here, and ..prove to everyone how easy It Is to guard against the inroads of ill health by hygienic living and scientific treatment. "Mr.. Coaper is a man of rare talents, magnetic force, and charm of manner. He never ceases to surprise you with the infinite Variety or hla knowledge and its absolute correctness and thor dughness. "I sincerely hope," continued Mr. Harris, “to be able to Induce Mr. Cooper to deliver at least one lecture while here. Especially Interesting are hls talks on practical philanthropy aifd, as announced In yesterday's papers, his establlshmsnt of the now famous Free Bread Line' at Louisville during the past winter, where he distributed at hie own personal expense 50,000 loaves of bread absolutely free and without, question to those In want In that olty. >nd at Knoxville, where he alao die-1 tributed many thousand loaves. Is al ready familiar to the charity workers' of Southern cities. "One of the most unique of, his charitable acts, and one which Is still fresh In the-minds of the people was performed in Atlanta recently, when he distributed over 1,000 dressee of excM lent quality to the poor women and children of that city. He Aeo perform ed * similar service at Birmingham and at Nashville—in fact. It has al ways been- his policy to give a large part of hip Income each year to char ity, and he Invariably shows his great sympathy for the poor and unfortunate in some material way In all cltlee he visits. "Tanlac is the result of many years of arduous atudy by Mr. Cooper and his principal chemist. In fact the two of them have carefully watched its de velopment from tl\p beginning of the sxperlmantal tests to Its present State of -eflotency. "In cases of catarrhal affections of the mucous membrane, stomach, liver and kidney complaints, I believe there la nothing so far discovered that will equal the action of Tanlao. "Ever and anon, someone suggests something that may tend to better our conditions, our business or our socio logical state. It has, therefore, given Mr. Cooper pleasure this time to offer the world Tanlac. "The success the preparation has achieved )n the larger cities of the country and especially In your neigh boring cities of Atlanta, Nashville, Bir mingham, Louisville, Chattanooga and Knoxville is ample evidence that my confidence In Tanlac is well placed." Mr .Harris declined to State posi tively that an exclusive Montgomery agency had been awarded, bpt Indi cated that an important announcement along thie line might be expected sometime this week. —Adv.

Watson Party Had Safety Assurance , WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Whether the-Carranza: government in Mexico is to-be held responsible by the United States for the death of the American mining men slain by bandits near San ta Isabel may depend upon the out come of an investigation of a circum stantial story W-hich reached the state department today telling how the mur dered Americana had been assured a safe conduct by Carranza authorities. Officials indicated clearly tonight, however, that the evidence so far was not conclusive, and that no decision would be reached pending a thorough Inquiry. They painted out also that ahouUi Carranza eventually be held responsible, that would not mean a break In this government's relations with blm, though It would result In, a .demand for Indemnity In addition to punishment of the murderers, already demanded and promised. Not Credited. The story of the safe conducts came from Collector Cobb at El Paso, whose dispatch repeated a statement "by a person connected with one of the com panies operating In Chihuahua." This informant said that before the depar ture of the Americans from Chihuahua he had been told by C. R. Watson, head of the party, and one of those killed, that the trip had been arrang ed after Carranza (authorities had-giv en Wapson a personal passport and had Issued a general passport for the oth ers. Watson It was said, had been assured In addition by the authorities that no military escort was necessary In that region, i The general disposition of state de partment officials is to regard this story as difficult of proof. T. H. Holmes, the only survivor of the par ty, has advised the department that If any safe conducts were granted, It was without hls knowledge.
