number of informal addresses by prominent
speakers. Colonel George A. Jlardcn, of
Boston, read an original poem. General
Henry V. Slocum deliereu the following
address :
The Address of General Slocum.
Mr. Prcs ident and Comrades:
.Since our last annual meeting death has
removed from our midt one who has fre
quently been our honored guest, one who is
universally accorded a position as one of
the greatest and purest American Generals.
Our love for General Sherman, personally,
and our admirution for his great militarv
genius will grow brighter as the year3 roll
by, and as each vcar brings forth new inci
dents in his wonderful career.
"When the Secretary of this society in
formed me that the honor of addressing you
on this occasion had been conferred upon
me. I at once wrote requesting him to send
j:ie a list of the speakers who have enjoyed
this privilege on former occasions. I re
ceived in reply a lit embracing the names
of all who have cveraddresscd the society
at its annual meetings. The committee, in
its selection of orators, has not confined it
telf to distinguished soldiers, but has
frequently resorted to the clergy and the
legal profession. I And in the number the
names of such renowned orators as Bev.
' Henrv "Ward Beccher, George 'William Cur
tis, Chauneey M. Depew, Daniel Doherty,
Cortland' Palmer and Dr. Behrends.
The LUt or Soldier Orators.
"In the list of soldiers I find-thc names of
Generals Dix, Chamberlain, Woodford,
Devens, J. K. Hawley, Horace Porter, Cal
vin E. Pratt and others. I have attended
most of the meetings of the society and have
observed that as a rule the orators from
civil life have spoken of the patriotism of
thearmy,of its great service,and of thegrand
results flowing from the war. Many of
those selected from the military profession
have indulged in criticisms on the conduct
of the Mar, and have discussed the errors
committed during the struggle.
"The thought has occurred to me that the
committee believe an address of the charac
ter last named to be desirable at times, and
for this reason I am indebted for the honor
conferred upon me. 1 shall, therefore, fol
low the precedent set by some of my dis
tinguished military predecessors.
Treatment of the Press.
"The met difficult qncstion a Government
like ours lias to encounter in time of war is
the proper treatment by the Government
and the army of the press of the country.
'o administration in this country can carry
on a great war without the active and earnest
aid of the press. It is this tremendous
power which keeps alive the patriotism of
the people, supplies recruits to our armies
and money t our treasury. And yet a
soldier who attempts to jioiut out the evils
that beset our army during the war, without
fpeaking of those we suflcrcd from t he action
of the press, would be an arrant coward.
"Thoc evils, of course, are far greater
under a Kepublic, where the liberty of the
press is jealously and properly guarded,
than under a monarchy; and yet, under the
monarchies of Europe, the course of the
press in recent years has become almost in
tolerable. A Military Writer's Onslaught.
"A very able military writer, Lascelles
"Wrarall, who. long ago, published a work
entitled 'The Armies of the Great Powers,'
in commenting upon the campaign in the
Crimea, tiys. Another great grievance
under whicS the English army suffers, and
which, so long as it is permitted to con
tinue, must impede any successful opera
tions, i the unbridled discussion by the
press of all m.htary movements during a
campaign. Tar be it from us to wish to lay
auy letters on the press, or to ignore the
r.rivan:ages derivable Irom a thorough
ventilation of all army questions, jet we
honestly think that when matters arc
car-ied'to such a pitch as before Sebastopol,
whc-i General Codnugton was compelled to
issue a general order to prevent the publica-
iiun oi me most lmponant secrets, the
efficiency of the array must be materially
injured by such indiscreet publicity.
41 'Even the Duke of Wellington "was tor
mented by newspaper correspondents, and
vc find in his dispatches repeated allusions
to the tsubjccL But what would he have
said to the swarm of self-constituted critics
who beset our army in the Crimea, and sent
home the most absurd reports to delight the
readies public as to the inefficiency of our
generals. These letters found their way
back to camp in printed form, and were ad
mirably adapted to cuhance the feeling of
insubordination among our men.
A Destroyer of Confidence.
" 'Newspaper articles do not,after all,pos
ecss the weignt of siiecches uttered by pop
ular men in Parliament, aud these certainly
djd their utmost to destroy all confidence in
our army. A General commanding, who,
while he is standing in the preserice of an
enemy, is compelled to hear such things as
Were uttered about Lord Baglan aud his
successor, cannot possibly secure the neces
sary confidence ot his men, aud must at last
lose confidence in himself.
" 'And then again! that notorious Boebuck
commission did it not subvert all ideas of
military honor and discipline? Ofiiccrs
were compelled to appear before a commit
tee ot ci-iliau8 and publicly express their
opinion as to the merits of their superior
officers. If the originators and defenders of
this inquiry could have heard, as we did,
the sarcastic remarks of the French officers,
or heard the openly expressed disgust of alt
who bore any love for England, they would
not have permitted such a disgrace'to their
country to go on.'
Applicuulo to Our Anny.
"1 have quoted from this excellent mili
tary book more freely than I .hould have
done 5at fcrthe fact that, by the substitu
tion throughout the chapter, or 'the press
of the united States' for that of England,
Congress for Parliament a:id thcCoraihittee
on tne Conduct of the War for the ltorbuck
Coiiiuin-ion, the entire chapter, though
svritttin pner to the ilcbrili-in, is an ad
mirable criticism upon some of the great
evils with which our army was
during the war.
"At the commencement of our conflict a
venerable, kind-hearted olil philanthropist,
who hated war and everything pertaining to
it, seated in a little room on an upper floor
on Spruce street, in 2ew York, issued a
peremptory order for a movement against
the enemy at Bull Eun. No officer dared
to oppose the edict. I was in "Washington
at the time commanding nearly 1,000 young
men from this State. None of them had
been drilled as soldiers except for a few
days, and not one-half of them had been
taught to load and fire the miserable old
Austrian musket with which they were
armed. The inevitable result followed.
Over a tenth of these boys were left on the
field either killed or wounded, -without hav
ing done any real good to the country; but
we had obeved the orders of a cood old man
who deeply repented and humbly apologized
for his action.
Valuable Secrets Revealed.
"During the war. correspondents of the
press accompanied all our corps and divis
ions and most of our brigades. In many
cases they were on terms of the utmost
intimacv with the commanding officers. In
a very short time many of these correspond
ents were assigned to stall duty, and Kept
up their character as correspondents at the
same time. The result was a daily revela
tions of secrets which should have been
carefully preserved, the promoting of dis
cord among officers and of jealousies be
tween the different commands. Month by
month they became more independent and
more defiant of military authority.
"Finally, in the spring of 18G3, a corre
spondent of one of the leading daily papers
or New York published statements as to the
strength of General Sherman's command,
his contemplated movements, etc., all of
which it was important to keep secret. At
last he openly abused Sherman and some of
his officers highest in rank, and his letters
were published, and the papers containing
them were soon distributed through the
camps. Upon being remonstrated with, he
openly defied Sherman, saving to him: 'We
newspaper men are a fraternity, bound to
gether by a common interest, and we must
and will write down-any man who stands in
our way.'
Sherman's Decided Action.
"Then Sherman replied: 'And I belong to
a fraternity that can put down at least one
newspaper man,-' and this he proceeded to
do by ordering him to leave camp, and tell
ing him if he caught him within the lines
again he would hang him. The man sub-
sequentlv appealed to President Lincoln to
revoke Sherman's order and permit him to
aecompanv the army, whose commander he
had deficit But Sherman was sustained by
General Grant and President Lincoln, aud
from that date to the close of the war there
was less vilification of the officers, fewer
attempts to destroy the confidence, not only
of the country, but of the army, in our
military leaders.
"The'question will be asked, Why allude to
these old matters, the war being now closed?
I allude to them because I hope to see our
country, if it becomes involved in war
again, start with the efficiency- and military
skill that it possessed at tue close of the
war. Many of the evils that beset our path
way were exterminated bv experience. "We
besran the strusrcle with little better tlianan
organized mob: we closed the war with an
efficient, well-trained armv, suffering from
as few evils as would usually beset the path
or the best trained armies of the old world.
An End to rault-Fimiln.
"Now, comrades, I have indulged so
much the spirit of fault-finding, I fear you
may think I see no bright side to the pic
ture. But I do see a very bright side. Few
armies ever had such "heavy losses, none
ever accomplished such grand results. We
fought to sustain the best Government ever
devised by man, and in accomplishing this
grand result wc conferred more and greater
blessings upon the South than upon the
North.
"Notwithstanding all that has been said
to the contrary, the debt due to our veter
ans is fully np'preciated by the people. If
you ever had a doubt of it, look about you.
Go through the streets of this beautiful
city. It seems to me that all the people of
Buffalo, without regard to party or nation
ality, have been vieing with each other to
honor you, ts testify their gratitude and
their high appreciation of the services of
the veteran? of the war.
The Question ot Tensions.
"But it has been said that in the matter
of pensions our Government has been un
just and niggardly. Is this true? Our
nation never will have done enough while
a single worthy veteran remains an inmate
of a pauper house or is permitted to suffer
from want It has long been the boast of
our statesmen thai we are the. most favored
people on earth, for the reason that we need
no great standing army to insure our safety.
And yet we are now paving nearly as much
to support our disbanded army as two of
the most powerful militarv" nations of
Europe expend to support their immense
btandmg armies.
"In lbG7, two years after the close of the
war, the interest on our national debt
amounted to $125,000,000, and our pension
roll to 525,000,000. This year the figures
are reversed, our interest is 25,000,000, and
our pension roll 5125,000,000. Does this
look like ingratitude or meanness?
"I take pride in the glory of my country.
I take pride in the good nameVf the gallant
men who defended her in the hour of peril.
For this reason I earnestly hope that in the
future, if charges of ingratitude and mean
ness are to be brought against the Govern
ment, the task of bringing them may be left
to demagogues and pension agents. The
truth is the nation is grateful to its de
fenders, and no people on earth ever before
gave such ample proofs of this gratitude."

BURLEIGH A WIfflER.
The Popular Assistant City Attorney
Succeeds Dick Johnston.
ONLY TWO VOTES AGAINST HIM.
Bearing of the Appointment On the Present
Judicial Contest.
YESTERDAY IN -TIIE COUNTY COURTS:
Assistant City Attorney Clarence Bur
leigh yesterday was appointed District At
torney to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of B. E Johnston. Yesterday
morning Beven of the Common Pleas Judges
met, Judges Stowe and "White being absent,
and proceeded with the election. Mr.
Burleigh was the choice, the vote, it was
stated, standing five for Mr. Burleigh and
two for other gentlemen. After the elec
tion the Judges adjourned to Common Pleas
No. 2, when Judge Ewing administered the
oath of office to Mr. Burleigh. He will as
sume his new duties at once and retain in
office all of Mr. Johnston's appointees.
They are County Detective Beltzhoover and
Clerk Thomas Johnston, a brother of the
late District Attorney, and N. E. Dorente.
Both the appointment of Mr. Burleigh
and his retention of the old force of the
office'gives general satisfaction.
Clarence Burleigh was born in Boston in
1853, and is consequently 37 years of age.
He received his education mostly ia the ex
cellent schools of New England, and came
to this city while yet very young with his
parents. He commenced the study of law
in 1875 in the office of Bruce & .Negley, and
27ie New District Attorney.
was admitted to practice in 1&77. In appear
ance he is of medium height, compactlv
built and has a face which is stamped with
firmness of character.
The effect of the appointment of Mr. Bur
leigh upon the judicial situation as respects
Common Pleas No. 3 was canvassed in cer
tain quarters. Through the week there has
been a vigorous working of sentiment in
favor of having the Republican County
Committee indorse the Governor's ap
pointees, Porter, McClung and Kennedy,
instead of going into a convention. The ap
pointment ot Burleigh to the District At
torneyship will operate in that direction.
He is so strong politically that no one will
care to oppose him for the Bcpublican nom
ination. Had any weaker man been named,
other Republican attorneys would probably
have wanted to contest for the nomination
and would accordingly have joined with
Fctterman and "Williams' friends in asking
for a convention. The appointment of Bur
leigh will withdraw that element. Some
question wns raised in a cotemporary last
evening as to the position of Messrs. Flinn
and Magee" upon the judicial question. It
may be stated with certainty that they are
both opposed to a convention, and in favor
of indorsing the Governor's nominees. Mr.
Magee favoredMr.Fetterman for the appoint
ment, but it is understood that he considers
it the best interests of the party and the
public now to have the appointees indorsed
since they are unexceptionable men.

GAS DRULEKS AT IT AGAIN.
A Coal and Coko Company Waging War on
a Lot of People.
A bill in equity was filed yesterday by
the Mansfield Coal and Coke Company
against "W. H. Huot, Frankltichards, E. G
Husler and John Davis, to restrain them
from boring oil and gas wells. The plaintiff
company states that it owns the coal under
a large tract of land in Collier township.
The defendants have entered on the land
and are about to erect derricks, etc, and
drill for oil and gas. They have already
drilled one well through the coal of the
plaintiff
It is impossible, it is stated, to drill such
wells in such a manner as to allow the re
moval of all the coal in the tract belonging
to the plaintiff without exposing the mine
to leakage from gas from the wells, and
rendering the mining operations hazardous
to the plaintiffs' property and employes.
An injunction is asked for to rcstrain'the
defendants from drilling wells.

CAPTAIN GRAY'S WILL.
An Important Decision Handed Down by
Judge Hawkins Yesterday Charitable
Institutions Loso Nearly 8100,000
Through a Flaw in tho Document.
Judge Hawkins, of the Orphans' Court,
yesterday handed down an important de
cision on questions involved in the distri
bution of the estate of the, late Captain K.
C. Gray. Captain Gray died May 28, 1888,
lcaving.a will dated February 2, 1888. The
document had no subscribing witnesses,
however, and though it was sustaine'd as a
will, the charitable bequests it contained
fell because there was no proof that it had
been executed more than 30 days prior to
death.
The instrument first bequeaths legacies to
relatives and friends, and then to charities.
The residue, it was directed, was to be di
vided between William G., David E.,
Bichard G., Margaretta B. and Eleanor G.
Park and the Allegheny General Hospital.
On the day before his death Captain Gray
told "W. G. and David Park that he had
made a will which had not been probated,
and he wished them to see that all its pro
visions should be carried out. The Parks
now, on the assumption that the charitable
legacies are void, claim that the whole of
the residuary estate snould be given to them
in exclusion of the next of kin of the testa
tor. The share they'were claiming was that
of the Allegheny General Hospital.
Judge Hawkins in his opinion reviewed
the case. He said that on the one hand it
was contended that because the bequest to
the Allegheny General Hospital was void
there was no analogy to the case of lapsed
legacies, which go to next of kin, and they
must consequently be read as though the
hospital had not been mentioned, and the
Parks were the sole legatees. On the other
hand it was held that the next of kin were
entitled to the residuary share ineffect
ually bequeathed to the hospital. After
referring at length o the-various decisions
in relation to lapsed and void legacies
Judge Hawkins said:
It was suggested that becauso the law pre
sumes Captain Gray knew the necessity of
attestation, ho never contemplated tho
hospital should take any part of the residue;
but that the Parks should take the whole.
This attnouies to captain tiraya vain and
useless act. The will speaks for itself. The
more reasonable presumptions are that he
intended' what ho wrote and being un
learned in the law was Ignorant ot tho
necessity of attestation. He gave the Parks
not the whole, but pro rata shares of the
residuo in common with tho hospital, and
the failmo of tho bequest to tho hospital
could not, as already shown, operato to in
crease their share as residuary legatees.
The share intended for tho hospital hav
ing become ineffectual, it is thereforo dis
tributable under the intestato laws to the
.next of kin.
Continuing, it was directed that those so
benefited should take in the proportion of
the bequests made them by Captain Gray.
Another question decided by Judge
Hawkins was that the legacy of 20 shares
of Black Diamond Steel Works stock to
John Caldwell, Jr, was not cumulative. As
the stock was worth 5500 per share, $10,000
was the equivalent.
The charitable bequests which lapsed be
cause the will was not attested amounted
in all to $05,000, exclusive of what the Al
legheny General Hospital would have re
ceived as its share of the residue. The Al
legheny General Hospital lost a bequest of
520,000 and the following institutions each
lost 5,000: Allegheny Orphan Asylum,
Homeopathic Hospital, West Penn Hos
pital, Allegheny Ladies' Belief Society,
Colored Orphans' Society, Blind Asylum,
Deaf nnd Dumb Asylum, Improvement of

Bather a Bine Day for Producers in
All the Fields Yesterday.
FORTY-FIVE BARRELS AN HOUR
Is What the Butler lot Well at McDonald
Is Doing at Present.
GMST OP WELL NEWS PROM BUTLER
There were more dry holes reported yes
terday than for some time before. It was
not the fact that they were dry so much as
their location that surprised the trade. The
first reported was the old No. 2 of the Fisher
Oil Company, Hackett is bhirley, on
the Kiddle farm, in the McCurdy
field. It has been1 over 100 days
in drilling and when it did finally enter the
sand not enough oil was found to start a
fire. Everything was as dry as around a
powder house. The well is located in the
center of a group of good wells. Not over
100 feet south of it is a good well belonging
to Guffey & Murphy on the Kerr farm, and
300 feet northeast are the two
big wells belonging to the Fisher
Oil Company and "K. G. Gillespie & Co.
Late last evening the Eoyal Gas Company's
No. 2 on tho Ed McDonald farm at McDon
ald was reported to be three bits in the
fifth sand and dry. From the present indi
cations no well is a sure thing for a pro
ducer in either field. Cochran & McAfee's
test well on the Sterling farm at Montgom
ery, in the Butler district, was drilled in
yesterday and is dry.
Coming Ont Fast.
Mc'Curdt The McCurdy No. 7 of Pat
terson & Jones was reported yesterday to
be still holding up to CO barrels an hour. .
Mellon & Wilson's No. 1, on the Jane
Kiddie, will be due the first of the week.
Their No. 2, on the .same farm, is" down
about 700 feet. Their No. 5, on the Scott
farm, is down about 1,600 feet; and their
Dougherty No. 3 about 800 feet. Huot &
Itichards' well on the Cowan farm in the
southeast is down 2,000 feet and will be in
Thursday. It is one of the most important
wells in'that part of the field. The Fisher
Oil Company has a rig up on the
Neeley farm in the lower part of the field.
In the northeast there will be several wells
in next week provided they have no more
troublesome fishing jobs. At Black &
Guffey's well, on the Mink, they are down
35 feet alongside of the stranded tools
which they are drilling past, and
should reach the sand Tuesday.
They are ready to drill pasl the tools in
their Andrews farm well, and will commence
the job Monday. The old Ewing farm well
of Black & Guffey is making 25 barrels a
day. The Aiken No. 1 of the same parties,
also in the northeast, is down 1,400 feet, and
has the last string of casing in. Their
Aiken No. 2 is down 1,300 feet.
"W. H. Hoffman & Co. have
the first string of casing in their well on
the Moore farm. It is located between the
wells of the Forest Oil Company on the
"Wright and the Ewing farms in the south
west. The Forest Oil Company has not yet
succeeded in pulling the collapsed casing
from its Ewing farm well. Guffey &
Gailey's No.'l, on the Adams farm, is down
1,500 feet.
The Big Butler Lot Well.
McDonald The well of Clarke & Ban
nister, on the Butler lot, which had dropped
to 22 barrels an hour yesterday morning,
was drilled one bit and increased to 45 bar
rels an hour. An offer of $2,000 for a six
teenth interest in it was refused yesterdav.
This would be at the rate of 32,000 for
the well, and is more than the
well is likely to produce. Thus far it has
put out between 1,400 and 1,500 barrels.
Mosier& Co.'s well on the Valantour lot
was due to get the fifth sand last night.
Finegan, Downing & Co. have located
another rig on their .Mongot lot. Pew &
Emerson, on the Steinheiser, will get the
-fifth sand early in the week. The Koyal
Gas Company's No. 3, on the Ed McDonald,
should be in the fifth sand next week.
A Howling Wildcat.
SHlPPENsrORT The Forest Oil Company
has commenced spudding at its wildcat on
the John Ingell farm, 2t miles northeast
of this place. It is also 2J miles southeast
of the dry hole on the John Todd farm,
which has just been completed by the Con
solidated Oil Company.
The Pioneer PooL
"Wildwood The No. 16 well of Griffith
and the Forest Oil Company, on the White
sell farm, was reported to be flowing at the
rate of 700 barrels a day last evening, but
the report could not be confirmed. At 10
o'clock yesterday morning it was flowing at
the rate of four barrels an hour, and
had a very strong pressure of gas.
Finegan, Downing & Co. 's No. 5 on the
Bynd farm was 27 feet in the sand and
standing full of oil. It was nearly double
the amount of sand that was found in the
other wells on the same farm. McGinnis &
Co.'s No. 2 on the August Kyle was shot
Thursday afternoon, and for several hours
afterward put out the crude at the
rate of 40 barrels an hour. It was doing 30
barrels au hour yesterday. Their No. 1,
oh the same farm, is doing 20 barrels a day.

Meeks farm will be due the first of the
week.
Still noplng for Oil.
Elizabeth The people of Lincoln
township still believe that oil in paying
quantities can be found there. The Ed
mundson well remains just as it was left,
and nothing has been taken awav from it
yet. The company still liolds the leases
taken in the vicinity, and the outside peo
ple who were attracted by the reports and
gathered up some territory are holding it
and keeping the. rents paid up. One
operator has secured a lease from Prosper
Phillips on what was thought to be the line
for a strike, and continues to pay 35 a
month to keep it alive. All of these things
lead many people to believe that there may
be some developments there yet.
From Greene County.
Watnesbueg The well on the James
Throckmorton farm was drilled in a few
days ago and proved to be a duster. This
well is located about half a mile west of the
Harvey well, and the unfavorable result
will tend to confine operations near the
Harvey belt. The well is the largest in cir
cumference of any in the county. There is
some talk of drilling the well "in the fifth
sand in hopes of securing the amber fluid.

Biggest Well In America.
The following description of the Ohio Oil
Company's gusher, near Van Buren, ap
peared in the Toledo Daily Commercial :
North Baltimore, O., four miles south of
this city, and located on the southeast cor
ner of the Hugh McMurray farm, situated
on the southeast quarter of the southeast
ouarter of section 11, Allen township. Han
cock county, the Ohio Oil Company struck
a rich and wonderful gusher on Tuesday. It
is a phenomenon among the many
prodigies of this wonderful oil territory.
AVhen the pay streak was struck at
the depth of 43 feet in the sand, the well
flowed natural through a two-inch pipe into
a 600-barrel tank, which was filled in just
90 minutes, with the tools in the hole. The
well has been Tut at 10,000 barrels. Yester
day it was only allowed to flow 2,000 bar
rels. This morning a large crowd of people
were out to see the tools taken from the
hole. They were lifted at precisely 11
o'clock, when the well became wild and
belched forth oil and gas at a tremendous
rate, throwing it high above the top
of the derrick and covering the ground
with the precious fluid for a distance
of several hundred feet. The well was
opened for two hours, while several men
were making efforts to get the gate over the
casing head and shut the well in, in which
they succeeded alter being nearly suffo
cated. During the two hours th'e well
flowed up out of the casing and through
two two-inch lines a solid stream, well
known and experienced oil men put the well
at 3,000 barrels an hour, which if
left open and would hold up at
that gait would in 24 hours pour
forth 72,000 barrels of oil. It is un
doubtedly the largest well ever struck in
the United States. After a steady flow of
two hours the well was put under control
and turned loose through a two-inch pipe
into a GOO-barrel tank, which it filled in 63
minutes. Four pumps have been placed in
Sosition to carry a portion of the oil to
lount Carey, but this resource seems un
available to check the .onward and upward
flow of the giant. A new pump station is
being erected just cast of the well by tho
Buckeye Pipe Line Company. The oil,
from the heavy pressure, has become some
what soiley.

DR. . H. COPELAM).
Returned From Vacation and at His
Office at 66 Sixth Ave.
FIVE DOLLARS A MONTH TO ALL.
It will be a matter of more than usual in
terest to the many friends and patients of
Dr. W. H. Copeland to know that he has
returned to Pittsburg after his vacation and
will be glad to see personally all who wish
to consult him at his office at 66 Sixth
avenue. The remarkable success of this
skillful specialist and his associates in the
treatment of catarrh and diseases of the
throat and lungs makes all the more notable
the departure in terms of treatment that
signalizes Dr. Copeland's retnrn. Dr. Cope
land has decided to treat all patients, old
and new, for the remainder of the summer
season at the uniform rate of 55 a month.
The reasons for this departure are herein
after stated.
FIVE DOIXABS A MONTH
To All Patients, Old and New, From July 1
to September 1.
It is beyond question that the summer sea
son is the best time for the treatment and cure
ofcatarrhaltroubles. The climatic conditions
are then most favorable, liability of catch
ing fresh cold being then reduced to the
minimum, and the even temperature and
condition of the atmosphere favoring the
progress of the patient.
Dr. Copeland has decided in order to give
all anopportunity of availing themselves of
his skill during this favorable season, to
treat all patients, old and new, applying to
him for treatment during July and August
at the merely nominal rate of ?5 a month,
furnishing all medicines. This applies to
patients by mail as well as patients in the
city. It is to all patients old as well as new
and for all diseases. AH patients taking
treatment from Dr. Copeland during July
and August will be treated until cured at
the rate of 55 a month.
A CONTKACTOK-SPEAKS.
Time Proves That Onr Claims Are Just.
A speedy termination of the labor war ex
isting between the carpenters and builders
has been promised to the watching public
for some time, but as yet has not been ful
filled. Should these troubles be satisfac
torily arranged there is no surety that the
matter will be permanently settled, but
may reoccur at some future time. With
Dr. Copeland's treatment of catarrh there
is no doubtful results. The disease once
cured, the cure is permanent. This asser
tion is indisputably shown in the following:
3Ir. H. T. Fishel, who is widely known as a
contractor and rig builder, residing at 23
JIawhinney street, Oakland, says: "A little
over a year ago I treated with Dr- Copeland
for catarrhal troubles, and in a short time I
regained my health and wns cured. Since
that time 1 nave had no recurring symptoms
and to-day I am as much cured a3 I was a
year ago. I have recommended Dr. Cope
land to any number ot my friends nnd in no
case has tho results following the treat
ment been otherwiso than highly success
ful. The results
in their cases
have been as per
manent as my
own."
"What was your
condition when
you applied to Dr.
Copeland for
treatment over a
year ago?"
"I had suffered
from catarrh for
years, mv head
anunose stopping
'up, eyes were
weak, constant
noise in my ears,

"Sharp pains in chest, sleep broken, tired
and wornjout .in mornimr, appetite failed,
sick after eating: my stomach wm so soro at
time I culd not bear the weight of my
clothes; was reduced from 133 to 128 pounds.
In fact, I was more like a dead tlmnalivc
man. While to-day I feel heathier and
better than ever before taking Dr. Cope
land's treatment."
