Cy Dahlgren's fame has reached the

strengthened when Dahlgren refused
to report during 1912, and amused
himself by pitching in the woods.

lumber camp, and how he ran a sa-

Not long ago a platoon of American

band Of notorious head hunters. Near
ing the home village Of the savages
they heard a tremendous uproar.
Thinking that some war dance or
blood-curdling tribal celebration was
on, the soldiers advanced their rifles
and charged at a double quick through
a thicket Of bamboo. They came out
on an open space, crowded with
shrieking natives. and found. not a
sacrificial dance, but a full-fledged ball
game, with palm leaves for bases and
