Notwithstanding the edict against golfing as a wide line to our national pastime, Charlie Hersog and a scribe took advantage of the rainy afternoon and the clear field to practise some strokes with the brassle or something on the Polo Grounds. Dan Brouthers and Dasher Troy, heroes of the olden days, watched this exhibition for a walked away dolefully phaking thelr heads. REINFORCEMENTS TO THE FRONT.

THAT'S NO TIME FOR AN ARGU MENT. 2 .The Giant players think that a good joke about some of them having a run-| in, witb, McGraw. “Can you imagine,” esked Matty, “a ball player kicking on the way the team is being run when he is just on the verge of slipping into a ‘punch of world's series money? We've heard go many stories about that fight, though, shat we'll listen to anything in the hope of getting a new version: “ . Now they ure trying to put the job of getting Jimmy Callahan out of the management of the White Sox up to Hal Chase. A week ago Owner Comiskey was the goat, In tho face of it all Jimmy rofused to be impeached, IT CAN'T BE DONE. Not that it's any of our business, but the fans have a great curiosity to know hoy McGraw got @ uniform out of the lot on hand to At MoLean.

Otie Crandall sat in the press box Sat- urday, and when told of the Aght refused to believe that he wasn’t being kidded.
