Accident Policy of
500, 900 Taken Out
By Giants on McGraw

NTEW YORK, Feb. 25.--John J.
Y McGraw, manager of the
Giants, who is reported to
receive the highest salary ever
paid a baseball manager, has Just
been distinguished along another
line. The New York National
league club has taken out an acct
dent policy for 100000 on the Lit
tie Napoleon, Not another man ac-
lively engaged in the pastime car
ries such a heavy policy.
Secretary John b. Foster, Of the
Giants. yesterday afternoon made
the announcement of McGraw's
record policy.
we carry heavy blanket insur-
ance on the rank and file of our
athletes" said Foster. In the case
Of McGraw, however, we figured
somewhat differently He had just
signed for five years at greater
salary than that paid to any other
man In the game, proving that the
New York club fully appreciates his
value.
In case of some unexpected ac-
cident, which would deprive the
Giants of McGraw's services for
ever, it would take at least the full
face value Of the policy to provide
competent successor. Figure it out
any way you wish and the policy
can not be considered unusual in
the light OF McGraws value.
All of which cheers the soul of
Christy Mathewson, the insurance
broker who landed this prize risk.

NASHVILLE MAY VOTE ON
SUNDAY BALL QUESTION

NASHVILLE. TENN, Feb. 25.-Any
action by the Mems Christian union of
this city toward having an anti-Sunday
baseball bill passed is certain to be
violently opposed. The supreme court
recently declared the law against sun
day baseball TO be unconstitutional, but
DR. J. d. Blanton, leader of the anti
Sunday baseball forces, says that he
will have this changed when the after
recess sessions of the legislature are
held.

opposed by the Young Mems Christian
union, which was also responsible for

club from playing i'm the state Of Ten
nessee and placing it in the hands of a
receiver AS far as state laws now
stand. the Vols can play ball on sun
day without fear of interference. but
they will play no Sunday ball until the
matter has been put to the vote of the
people Should the majority Of Nash
Niile's voters decide I'm favor Of SUNDAY

ERED CLARKE and his Pittsburg
club will, 1t is thought be the
bugbear of the Giants this year.
Clarke is taking things easy. as
usual. in the matter of training. 1t
is true, he will reach Hot Springs
a little. earlier than usual, but he
is always one of the latest to reach
training quarters And no one will
say that the Pirates have been i'm
properly trained. For more than
ten years the Pittsburg club has
been right up in the first three at
the finish
IF this early start keeps on. it
would be a good idea for the
baseball magnates to pass a rule
limiting the training period. In the
first place, the expense is very
great, and it looks as if part of it
were useless expense. If a rule were
passed forbiddiug a ball club to be-
gin spring practice before March t..
no club would be the loser by it,
either physically or financially.
COME ingenious person has in
- vented a device for warming up
pitchers that seems to lay away
over anything of its kind put on the
market. 1t ought to find a ready
market with ball players who lack
control-and control is absolutely
necessary if one is to remain in the
big leagues.
The device consists Of canvas
screen with a hole in it a foot wide
and of the average length between
batter's knees and his shoulder.
1t also has an indicator arranged
by which balls and strikes are re-
corded. Back of the hole is a kind
OF bag which stops the ball after
the pitch. The ball falls on a wood
en- chute and rolls back TO the
pitcher. who can thus practice
alone without having to retrieve
the balls.

ORDERS EXCLUDE
JOHNSON FROM
ENGLISH SOIL

~ UFFALO. y. Y. Feb. 25.-By
n the terms of a general order
issued by the Canadian gov
eminent to the immigration in
spectors at all border ports of the
Dominion. Jack Johnson, the pugi-
list, has been barred from admit
lance into Canada. The official rea-
son for this action Is that Johnson,
who is now said to be i'll of pneu-
mOnia in his home in Chicago, has
been designated as an "undesir-
able" Under the Canadian immi-
grafton law Johnson is 'debarred
from entry by reason of moral
turpitude."
Johnson endeavored to leave the
jurisdiction of the United States
though under indictment for yiolat-
ing the Mann white slave act. his
destination at the time being To
ronto. He was arrested at Battle
Creek. Mich, and returned to Chi
cago, his departure from the latter
city having been tipped off to the
United States authorities.
Johnson has two nigh powered,
expensive automobiles in Toronto
which were shipped there in ad-
vance of his attempted fight from
the United States. 1t is intimated
at Toronto that communications
from the department Of justice at
Washington to the Ottawa author
titles resulted in the order prohibit
ing Johnsons entry into Canada.
AT any rate, Johnson's arrest at
Battle Creek precipitated the order
for his exclusion. 1t is pointed out
that this is likely to have the eff
feet of barring Johnson from land
ing anywhere on British soil, which
makes a heavyweight white hope"
superhuous.
The Canadian order against
Johnson, it appears. kill him i'm a
sporting sense in any Anglo Saxon
country. whether he be convicted
on being placed on trial at Chicago
next week or not.
The action of the Dominion au-
thoritieS is in response to public
sentiment throughout Canada.

PARIS. FRANCE. Feb, 25-Raron
Pierre DeLoubertn, president Of the In

new scheme to assure the amateur stand
ing of all Olympic contestants. He pro-
poses that all men who take part i'm the
games be required to swear a solemn GA tn
TO the flag of their country that they are
amateurs
'If Jim Thorpe" he said. had been
called upon to swear upon the Stars and
stripes that he never violated the rules
Of anna teurism. it is inconceivable that
he would have told a lie
An Olympic vow such as suggested
would al once do away with the necessity
of numerous inquiries into the status Of
competitors and athletes would be put
upon their honor"
This is typically French idea and has
aroused enthusiastic approval from Paris

~ NE beer a day is the allowance
made by Manager Johnny
Evers to his players who are
training at Tampa, Fla. One beer
a day to some players is like one
peanut a day to a peanut-eater
With the general run Of men, If he
tries one peanut he can not stop
until the whole bag is gone. SO
with beer and some ball players.
But to hold the allowance down to
one beer is something that will be
found hard to accomplish. Looks
like a foolish rule on the face of it.
What is one beer? Either the
players should be allowed to drink
as many beers as they desire Gn
moderation) or they should cut it
out altogether.
I Asst season McGraw won the
l. dag with the Giants because he
got a flying start. While his team
finished staggering, the players had
enough left to pass under the wire
first. viii he repeat? Last year
he was one of the early birds at
training quarters. He worked his
players hard. They were in fine
shape when the season opened, but
did not the strenuous work in
training camp tell on them toward
the end of the season?
This year the Giants are again
the first to start spring practice.
They have been at Marlin Springs
several days, and they have big
start on all the other National
league clubs except the Chicago
Cubs. If, next fall the Giants
falter again, it will be pretty good
proof that their training season is
too long. Three weeks of the right
kind of work ought to be enough,
as far a the physical end of base
ball training is concerned. More
than that tells on the players. They
grow tired of training camp. They
long for the season to open. They

q OMETIME last fall l joined

the best sixteen golfers in Amer
lea. ] now propose to give each
week, if possible a little golf biog-
raphy OF these successful players
and l begin the series with the man
who was second in the list and
probably deserved first place.
Warren X. Wood began his golf
life on the short course at Jack
son in 1899, when he was about
twelve years old. His golf equip
ment at that time was composed
of one 95-cent cleelI and a Var
don flyer.
He played his first real golf,
however. at the Tuscumbia golf
course at Green Lake Wis
Mr. Wood played his first tour
nament at Milwaukee in 1901. He
qualified second but was beaten
in the second round. During the
same year he broke the record of
the Tuscumbia course and thus
won his first prize, a cup which oc-
cupies a prominent place among his
trophies. The following season he
went again to Tuscumbia and put
in the whole season practicing un-
his game.
Mr.. DeMoss died short while
ago and every golfer mourned him,
he was an exceptional player him
self.
In 1902 Mr.. Wood won the inter
scholastic championship In 1904
he was selected for membership on
the original Olympic team, and he
won the first flight cup at the
Olympic championship at St. Louis
In the fan Of 1904 he went to Law
rencevile academy and played on
the LaWrcuceville golf team
In 1906 Mr. Wood won the Unit
ed North and South championship
at Pinehurst and the Glen View
and Onwentsia open tournaments.
That same year he was runner up
to - T.. Sawyer in the Western
championship at St Louis, and he
was not beaten with the thirty
seventh hole He also played on
the Olympic team.
New Record at Jackson Park.
In the next year he played in the
National at the Euclid club, Cleve-
land. and was defeated by jerome
Travers on the last green This
was rather an unusual defeat, in
which the winner had a higher
medal score than the loser, it was
70 to 70. In the same year Mr..
Wood played in the Western open
AT Hinsdale and obtained fourth
place great distinction for an
amateur. That year he won again
the Glen View cup and made a rec
ord Of 80 ON the short course at
Jackson Park. This probably is
tho only score below On on record
for eighteen holes
In the Western open at Nor
mandie "a ST. Louis in 1908 Alr.
Wood finished hfth, making a new
amateur record for the course
During this year he won the
championship of Pinehurst and the
