shot himself through the heart and
Dodds, with an ample supply of provis-
ions, was left to care for himself. with
the understanding that he was to over
take Martin and Hoffman should he re-
cover. Nothing was heard of him again.
Martin and Hoffman pushed on to Ke-
vollkog, Russian Indian village near the
Black Hole country. The village was
made up of Russian refugees from the
prisons of Siberia. They robbed Martin
and Hoffman of everything of value and
kept them prisoners. Hoffman was sepa-
rated from Martin and taken to another
village. where he was compelled to do
menial work. At the end of a month he
escaped and reached the small town of
Sisinan, on the Koyukuk River, where he
was i'll for several months. He never re-
ceived any further tidings of Martin.

his record for the morning. Captain Hop
per was so impressed with the reverend
gentlemans ability as a player that he
signed him for the season. Captain Mono

pass him were taken by the left fielder
Lieutenant Hanley persisted in going to

work. Major Mccarthy graceful form

Some of the ladies thought it shame
that he should injure his nice hands with
a horrid ball. DR. Sullivan played hard to
win as he had bet with a young lady
from Capitola. Although she lost. the
jolly medico sympathiZed with her during
their walk back to that famous resort
Captain McIntyre's glasses handicapped
him in catching. Lieutenant Kellys arm
gave out after the second inning and he
retired from the box in favor of Lieuten-
ant Winnie Carroll, who gave innumerable
bases on balls, hit the batters and COM
mitted all kinds of crimes, but redeemed
himself by. heavy batting. Adjutant
Jack Duffy was cleverly bunkoed by
Captain Powers. When Duffy reached
first he did not know Powers had the ball
in his possession and when he stepped
off the bag he was promptly put out. He
was so chagrined at buying the gilded
brick that he went off into a corner and
kicked himself. No amount Of kindly
words could bring back the smiles to his
face the rest of the game

pitched for Captain Hoppers aggregation,
