In presenting interesting phases OF

the fame Of a product is extended be-

Syrup Company. The merits OF tals
well-known excellent laxative were
first made known to the world through
the medical journals and newspapers
Of the United States; and is one OF the
distinct achievements of the press. IL
is now well known that Syrup OF Figs
is an ethical proprietary remedy, ap-
proved by the most eminent physicians
everywhere, because 1t is simple and
effective. yet pleasant to the taste ana
acceptable to the system, and not only
prompt in its beneficial effects, but
also wholly free from any unpleasant
after-effects. 1t is frequently referred
to as the remedy Of the healthy. be-
cause it is used by people who enjoy
good health and who live we'll and feel
well and are we'll informed on all sub
jects generally, including laxatives.
In order to get its beneficial effects. 1t
is necessary to get the genuine Syrup

The officers and sailors of the navy
are frequent sufferers from seasick-
ness, even after they have got their
sea legs on" observed a naval surgeon
to q Washington Star reporter. In
deed, / think I can safely say that,
young and old, one-third OF the entire
navy officers as well as men are seasick
during storms as well as at other
times. In theory naval officers and
sailors are entirely free from such So
called weakness. but, in fact, they have
stomachs and are sufferers at times the
same as the rest OF humanity. The
sailor, in this respect. has many ad-
vantages over the naval officers, and Is
less sensitive to seasickness, for the
reason that he seldom has what Is
called shore duty to perform, and he Is
on the ship all of the time, barring the
days on now and then Of liberty. When
an officer it is entirely different, for
he seldom has to spend as much time
on the ship as he does on shore. The
three years sea duty Is generally fol-
lowed by three years shore duty, during
which time his sea EGGS and stomach
entirely disappear, and have to be built
ND again. 1t is rare that an officer on
return to sea duty does not have to

FIELDER TIERNAN RELEASED.
He Has Played with New York Thir-
teen Years.

New York, Aug. 2.-Panic reigns in the
ranks of the New York baseball team, and
the new manager, Fred Hoey, who got
John b. Days job, is having his troubles
Tiernan, who for the last thirteen years
has played right field for the locals, has
been released. Tiernan has declared on
several occasions that he could not play
ball under the present club ownership, but,
at a reduced salary, he has been forced
to fill his old place against his will. He
has been i'll at different times, but has re-
ceived no leniency from the management.
In fact, he has been fined and laid off
without pay on several occasions.
Like other players on the team, Tiernan
has not had the heart to overwork him
self in view of the treatment accorded
to him So now the veteran has been re-
leased and is free to sign where he pleases.
He will not be idle long, as several League
managers believe that, with a liberal sal
airy coming to him, and proper handling.
Mike can play ball with the best men in
the profession.
Tiernan made his bow with the New
Yorks in 1886 as a pitcher, being drafted
from the Jersey Citys. He did not have
much success in the box, but his ability
to hit and run bases made him valuable
in the outfield. Pitcher Nichols, of the
Bostons, once said that he would rather
face any other batsman in the League than
Tiernan in a tight place, and that Mike
had a wonderful eye. During the constant
acts of rowdyism and disorder practiced
by the New Yorks under Freedman
tutelage, Tiernan always behaved himself
admirably and was a great favorite every
where. He was never fined by an umpire
in his life and is well liked In the pro-
fesEion.

THE ST. LOUIS END.
Not Much Hacking There for the New
League.

St. Louis, Aug. 2.-The facts in connec-
tion with the alleged formation of base
ball club in St. Louis to oppose the Ma
tional League team conducted by the Robi-
sons, are these: George Schaefer, member
of the House of Deputies, and son OF the
owner of a Unknown downtown resort,
owned, with George P. Heckel, former city
councilman, an eight-year lease on old
Sportsman's Park, now known as Athletic
Park The property was sold under the
hammer and Schaefer bought it in
Schaefer's father is wealthy, and the young
man has some money, but Heckel is not
thought to be wealthy. the park, so
Schaefer says, has been turned over to an
association, formed of himself, Heckel,
Chris Won der Abe, AL Sphinx, and several
Others names not mentioned, to be used
by the new club. Al Sphinx is sporting ed
itor of an afternoon newspaper. Won der

indicate the extent of the interest he might
have in the deal
This is the financial backing of the en-
terprise, so far as anybody has been able
to learn, except. that Schaefer says "A
well-known business man OF means Will
be president of the association, to be le-
galIy chartered to operate the club" The
park is there, but it will take 100000 to
put it in shape As to whether the asso-
citation story is a mere bluff or reality
no one can find out further than to ac-
cept the statements of Schaefer, who has
been doing all the talking. Generally
speaking, 1t is safe to say that unless
more capital is interested in the enter
prise than is represented by the hackers so
far mentioned, not very strong team can
be placed in the field here. Sehaefer is
not very specific in speaking of the new
club. He says 1t is forming, and that
money is behind 1t. In local sporting cir
cles the opposition team is still very much
OF a bubble.
