equally reliable as preventive to invalids
whe travel by steamboat and railroad and
who sometimes suffer as much in those
conveyances as ocean travellers in steam
ships. Biliousness, constipation, sick head

by oppressive climatic influences or un-

FREEDMAN'S MAD VANITY
New York President Assumes to
Denounce President Young.
Andy's Brief Experience in the Ma
tional League Hardly Warrants
the Statements He Makes.

Andrew Freedman, of the New York
baseball club, sails on the Majestic to-
day for Europe. Heexpects to return early
in September. In an interview Mr.. Freed
man vehemenuy denounced Nick Young
and John B. Day, inspector Of umpires,
for the poor umpire system in the League.
Action must be taken," he said, 'or the
game as a sport and as a financial enter
pIise mus. fail. Never have SO many pro-
tests been made against umpires as this
year, and the public-even those who sym
pathize with the clubs receiving the benefit
Of this injustice lis becoming disguised.
Mick Young is to blame, and 1 am not
the only one disguised with his work. In
spcctor of Umpires John B. Day comes
back from his Western tour of alleged In
spection with whitew ashng report of
the work OF the staff Place it beside the
statements of press critics, presidents pro
tests and sworn affdavits Of drunkenness
on the field and disgraceful acts on the
part of umpires, and which is to be
credited?
Mr.. Young's salary is equal to that
OF a bank president. yet he retains aGovern-
ment position. which yields another salary.
The volume Of business of the League and
tscontrol OF minor associations is more than
enough for one mans whole time. without
even the matter OF umpires. II Young gcan't
give this important branch of his assumed
duties proper attention, somebody should
relieve him of 1t and avert the ruin of the
game"
Mr.. Freedman is a very young man in
baseball, and when he assumes to belittle
tile president OF the National League he
manifests q freshness so frequently dis.
played by minor Lacquer when he comes
into the major League. The truth OF the
matter is Andy is simply yearling and his
volubility Of talk.
The trouble is not so much with the
umpres as 1t is with the players some OF
whom wear New York uniforms. The bull
