THE DIAMOND.
THE GIANTS
 DOING STUNTS
Gave Their Friends Great Exhibition Yesterday Closing Games Between
 American Leaders begun

New York, Oct 7.-The Giants were net Giants yesterday, but lot of schoolboys turned loose in their big play field for an afternoon of undilut- cd fun. For the sake of better name 1t was called the Giants Field Day."
 HAe program began with a five-in- hing game of ball-burlesque ball, in l which the rules of the game, as well as their diamond dignity, were thrown te the four winds.
 Several contests followed which were interesting to those who have 1 followed the work of the team. These { were throwing the ball for distance, ] throwing for accuracy, running the bases against time and going the circuit over the hurdles.
 Marshall captured three of the events. He threw the ball further than any of the players, making a throw of 367 feet 8 inches He won the base running contest against time, going the rounds of the bags in IA 1-5 seconds, and won the "fungo" batting contest. ,y-s ss.
 The race over the hurdles went to Browne. He took the jumps like a trained hurdler, going about two hun dTeu yards In what Announcer Hum phreys claimed was 9 1-5 seconds.
 Elliott won the pitcnIng for accur- acy event, throwing four balls out of six through an oblong frame 21a feet by 11a feet. r
 Several pugilistic stars of greater or lesser light boxed exhibition rounds. s'Terrible Terry and Johnny Bur- dick, Toby Irwin and Eddie Hanlon, Young Corbett'' and 'Kid' Broad, Jimmy" Kelly and "Kid" CurIey, and Hughey McGovern and Otto Moran; each boxed three one-minute rounds.
 George Bothner and George Fisher, Olsen and Fleming, and Leon Pardello and "Jim" Calvin wrestled seven minute bouts. There were no deci- sions given in either the boxing or wrestling bouts.

M'GRAW REFUSES TO
 PLAY AMERICANS

John J. McGraw, manager of the New York National baseball team, and Harry Pulliam, president of the Ma tional league, made known yesterday their views on tie subject of q post season series with the champions of the American league.
 Pulliam merely had to say to Ban Johnson, president of the American league, that the matter was entirely between the individual club owners, and that as president of the league he, had nothing to do with it.
 McGraw, however, had more to say, as the following letter shows:
 To the Baseball Patrons of New York:
 I want to go clearly and emphati- cally on record in the matter of the refusal of the New York club to play a post-season series. I was never ac- cused of being a coward. It is not my nature to hide behind any man: never yet did it, and am not going to begin now. The people of New York have been kind enough to give me some credit for bringing the pennant to New York and if there is any just blame fof criticism for the clubs action in pro- tecting that highly-prized honor the blame should rest on my shoulders, not MT Brush's, for I and alone am re- sponsible for the clubs acticn. How ever when the facts are known there will be no blame Mir Brush's only part in it is supporting me, as he has always done.
 I have my reasons for my stand and they are good reasons. I am willing to stand before the public and the patrons of the New York club with them and Be judged by them.
 When I came to New York three years ago the team was in last place. Since that time, on and off the field, have worked to bring the pennant to that the New York team has won this honor I for one will not stand to see 1t tossed away like a rag. The pen nant means something to me. It is the first have ever won It means something to our players, and they are with me in my stand. We are not a lot of grafters looking for box office receipts at the expense of our club. Tlhe club is not run on these lines. If we had wanted to sacrifice the sport for box office receipts we would not have won the pennant as we did. We could have eased up and made it close, but we didn't. We never stopped un- il we clinched the pennant, even if ii did rob the game of the interest of q pennant race. The club never com. plained When the fight was hot we played to thousands. After the race was run we played to hundreds. Bul

A HARD PRACTICE.

West Point, Oct 7.-West Point was put through hard practice yesterday in preparation for the Dickinson game on Saturday. The team's work was the best seen here this year and the strong scrub was unable to advance. Taking the ball on the 25-yard line the scrubs were allowed to retain the oval but failed to gain over 15 yards in as many downs. Graves dropped goals from the field from the 30-yard line with thea line charging him. .su DaEis, is still in the hospital with bad knee received in the Tufts game.

M,GRAW,s SPEECH AT NEW YORK

< A benefit was given the members of
 the New York National base ball club
 at New York theater the other even
 ing. Every player had to wear a dress
 suit, There were various tokens,
 among them loving cup for Manager McGraw from his players. The Her. aid says:
 It was a surprise to McGraw, and for a moment he was discomfted. But
 the nerve that has pulled him out of many base ball hole asserted itself, His voice was full and strong as he said: s'I want to thank this audience for their appreciation of the efforts of these boys. While stood on the fir ing line they aimed the guns, To the members of the New York team belong the honors. This token of their esteem | touches my heart. I want to thank them. as I thank you, for the support you have given us the last year, and l by the eternal order of things we will win again if we don't go lame." One of Senator Grady's significant remarks which took the audience by storm re- l ferred ill a measure to the controversy existing over a series of games with l the members of another league. He said: s'This is the first time in fifteen years that this championship has come l to New York. It has been won by a team that needs no other games to be ' recognized as the champions of Ameri ca and the champions of the world Before the Giants filed onto the stage 1 they were forlorn set of individuals l One infielder wanted to know what he l should do with his hands. Mathewsor | was white and quivering Only Fay l loF ekept his nerve. And these boys t,haye-bee playing with no concern be fore multitudes throughout the year?

SCRUBS WORKED HARD.

New York, Oct With five of the varsity team laid off and Thorp hurt so that he had to drop out of the practice early, the Columbia scrub team yesterday gave the varsity a gruelling that made up the fiercest practice seen on South field this sea son. Morley had strengthened the second eleven as much as possible, giving them a powerful set of backs and a good line and the scrubs played horse with their opponents. Neither side scored during the practice, but the scrub backs made substantial gains.

 Wurts White, 'O5, first substitute fullback, and the man on whom the Yale coaches have relied when $hev- lin was not in the game, was so badly injured yesterday afternoon that he was taken to the city to have his in- jury attended to. After a brilliant run on a kickoff he was thrown heav- fly to the ground, with mass of pur- suing players heaped OH him. When released it was found that his left leg had been badly twisted, and he is probably out of the game for some time He is the fifth man to be put out of the game.
 Lydig Hoyt of New York city, one of the most promising members of the Yale football squad, was severely hurt in the contest with Holy Cross We'd nesday, and as result he may be out of the game for the rest of the season.

INDIANS IN POLITICS.

Rev. G.. L. Hall of the American
Missionary Association says: ''The
Fort Berthold, N. D., Indians
have recently become voters. The
coming fall elections are import
and, consequently the caucuses
held this spring were Of some
moment. In the county coRven-
tion eleven delegates out of
twenty-six were Indians. They
might have a deciding vote of con-
siderable consequence.
There was an effort to control
the ignorant part OF the commun-
ity for private interests. The
better educated young men, how
ever, were alive to their duty and
opportunity, and many Of the old
er ones were sensible enough to
put forward the younger and bet
ter informed to represent them.
The consequence was ,thae when
the delegates arrived at the county
seat they were found to be an in
telligent and we'll dressed COM
pany, who could understand what
was going on. Two of them went
from the county to the Fargo
state convention to nominate dele
gates to the national presidential
convention. One went to the
judicial convention. and two are

tion at Grand Forks to nominate

made o good impression, and were
not led into the self-indulgences
that disgraced some whites.

older boys found it rather tire

MOVING PICTURES
AMAZE The IN
dams.

Burton Holmes, the lecturer,
visited the home of the Moki IL
dians in Arizona to witness the
weird snake dance which those
Indians have practiced at intervals
for centuries. While near the
home of the Mokis he set up his
moving picture machine and made
film showing Apache Indians
and cowboys in horse races and in
feats of daring while on horseback.
The film was developed and proved
to be excellent. A year later Mr.
Holmes visited the same region
again and one night gave an ex-
hibition for the benefit of the
natives. The Indians observed
the pictures which Mr.. Holmes
threw on the screen, which was
stretched on the side Of store
building, with stolidity, and made
no comment until the moving
picture machine was started and
the film made in the neighborhood
a year before was thrown on the
screen.
"Then there was almost a riot"
said Mr.. Holmes ia telling of the
affair. Several of the Indians
who had taken part in the races
the year before had died, and when
they were shown on the screen,
riding for dear life, their friends
we're amazed. The dead had been
brought to life. It was astound-
ing. The Indians gazed at the
picture, then looked at each other
as if uncertain that they saw what
they saw. Then they began to
