It is not only sad but amusing as well to watch dyspepttcs regard friends as that friend talks about fine meal he has just enjoyed. To the dyspeptic there comes only the thought of the pain, the belch- ing, the Indigestion, etc.. that follows the meal and the awful sense of re- pugnance that occurs while the meal is being eaten.

FAIR PLAY FROM
PRES. MURPHY
Former Cub Manager Will Not

Sweeney and Purdue.
By Frank G.. Menke.

AYEW YORK, Feb. 12.-With base
~ ball interest centerlng to-day
on the fight between Charles
W. Murphy, of the Cubs, and the de-
posed manager, John Evers. the gath
ering of the magnates of the nationa
game took on all the attractions of E

2. Meeting of the National League:

OF the fact that he was after Evers
Early in the day Evers held out nc
hope to Gilmore, but he persisted in
his declaration that he would never
accept any proposition as a result OF
which Murphy would benefit in a
financial way. He asserted that
though he would be glad to play in
Boston, he would never accept the
deal by which he was traded to Bos-
ton by Murphy in exchange fol

EVERS said he appreciated the I'M
IL precedented action that had beer
taken by the board of directors of the
National League in giving him a
hearing and uphoIding him in his
fight against the Cub boss by guar
anteeing the salary to which he is
entitled under his contract, but as
serted that this would not cause him
to let down In his resistance. He was
subjected to pressure to yield from
many directions, however, his friends
advising him to accept Boston's
terms and drop the fight.
That the Federal League was cen
tering Its fight against organized
baseball on the league was confirmed
to-day by President Gilmore wher
he said: Ban Johnson is a man ]
honor and respect. I am glad the
American League has put the whole
question of our activities in his
hands"
GILMORE intimated that Murphy
~ team would be the main target In
the campaign. He refused either 70
affirm or deny reports that Evers had
been offered $4,000 for three years
service, but that was the proposition
according TO general reports around
