The name in this record points to Haskell Institute in Lawrence, Kansas, a federally run boarding school for Native American students that opened in 1884. Baseball was among the sports the school promoted, and its teams competed against other schools and local clubs. Pictures like this one show a young player in an institutional setting, where sports were part of a curriculum that also emphasized vocational training and assimilation. The title uses the period's wording for the students, and it is worth reading the image with that history in mind.
