Inc 1gorrote learns through the
shouting Of the message from hilltop

Real Wild Men Of Borneo.
In Borneo are found quite as horrible
looking creatures as the "bogie men
OF ch1ldhood's terrified fancy. The
true wild man Of Borneo' IL the
Dyak, or head hunter" He Is sinewy
and active from living in his house
among the tree tops, and his only garb
Is a monkey skin worn with the tail
hanging down the back. He carries q
slight wooden tube, the "blowgun,"
with which he shoots death dealing
poisoned darts. fatal to man or beast,
Around bis waist is strapped a heavy
snort sword for cutting of the heads
OF his victims.
When the head hunter starts out for
business he locates himself in a tree
over d waterway where travel is not
too frequent There, disguised as an
orang outang, he sits unobseryed,
while he other wild creatures Of the
forest chatter and hop about him. In
a small bamboo case he has a couple Of
dozen sharp pointed poisoned darts,
not over six inches long. and at the
rear end of each a little tuft OF cottony
stuff to hold the air as they are blown
through the tube.
The victim is allowed to pass I'M
! molested until his back is in view. and
then Il silent but powerful blast from
the Dyak's lungs sends Il dart hro,lrh
the tube, and as the wounded man
jumps he and his assassin both know
that death Will ensue within a minute

Interest in the African py2mics dates
back to he time Of thv ancient Greek
poets and historians. but The existence
ana special character of these people
were not thoroughly investigated until
late In modern times.
Great interest was aroused in 1910
by the discovery by the British Or
n1tho1ogists' union Of a new pygmy
