THE TwENT1RTEs TRIP HOME
Left Manila September 8, Hong Kong
September IA, and Yokohama
September 25.

San Francisco, Oct. 12.-The Twenti-
eth Kansas, after an active campaign
IN the Philippine of over eleven months
embarked on the chartered transport
steamer Tartar at Manila for home Sep
Iember 3. On the day of sailing the
numerical strength of the regiment was
fOS men and forty-One officers. These
We're all that were left of the regiment
which left San Francisco in Nav 1898
On board the Tartar, besides the
command under Colonel Metcalf, was
General Funston, formerly colonel of
the regiment. Colonel Little was in
Japan, as was also Lieutenant Whis-
ner, who expected to join the regiment
upon its arrival at Yokohama.
The hOmeward journey began on the
afternoon of September 8 and the Tar
tar sailed into the harbor al Hong Kong
three days later. Here the transport
was put into dry dock where extensive
repairs were made. The regiment spent
enjoyed the hospitality of the British
troops.
The BritOns proposed a shooting con-
test, which was quickly accepted by the
Aansans, and although the men from
the trenches were beaten. the English
men generously acknowledged that
their victory was due to the superiority
of their guns.
At Hong Kong the Kansas band

thing was put in order for sailing and
the Tartar's nose was pointed outward,
when a most VeXauOuS incident Oc-
CURED which might have taken an in
ternational turn had not public senti-
ment in Hong Kong finally overcome
the exalted obstinacy OF an ofhcious
harbOrmaster.
The transport was not given clear
ance papers, without which she could
not leave Hong Kong harbOr. In vain
did Colonel Metcalf plead that the har-
bormaster had no right to delay the
hOmeWard voyage of the soldiers. The
harbormaster claimed that the tran
sport was overcrOwded. There was no
complaint among the KansanS and the
whole trouble was stirred up by the
volunteer regulars abroad who found
their accommodations somewhat too
limited for their personal convenience
and who sought to gain greater COM
fort on the voyage by getting rid of a
portion of the Twentieth regiment.
In his provoking dilemma, Colonel
Metcalf wired the state department at
Washington, but before an answer
came the harbOrmaster changed his
mind and allowed the Tartar to leave.
1t was at Hong Kong that Corporal
Robert NJ. Lee, company F, died of dyS-
entery. The body was embalmed and
brought home. Lee lived at Manhat-
tan, Kan.
On the way from Hong Kong to
Yokohama the health of the regiment
rapidly improved. When the beautiful
,
delay in landing was caused by the ex-
asperating delay of the health officers
in visiting the transport and passing on
the health of the command.
At last the troops were allowed to
land, and in a few hours hundreds of
the Kansas boys were on the trains
bound for Toxic, the capital Of Japan.
Here they were deliberately entertained
by the American colony. On the morn
ing of September %, the Tartar ran
out of the harbOr of Yokohama and
started on her trip to San Francisco.
Before leaving Yokohama, two
deaths occurred, both privates. John NJ.
IngenthiOn of company L, died of dys-
entery, and John S. Bowman, of the
Fourteenth infantry, succumbed to the
same disease.
For several days out from Yoko-
hama the sea was quite rough and
many suffered keenly, but after the
first squaIly weather was passed the
trip was made in comfort. Everyone
seemed to improve wonderfully, stim-
ulated by the bracing sea air and the
prospect of once again seeing home and

FUNsToNs FATHER-1N-LAw.
Tells the Story of the Generals Rapid
Courtship and Marriage.

San Francisco, Oct. 12.-Otto Blank
art, father-in-laW of General Fred Fun
ston, had never seen the general until
the latter's return from the Philippines
on the hospital ship Solace. Mr..
Blankart was in New York when Fun
ston and his daughter become engaged,
and as they were married two days
later, it was impossible for him to reach
home for the wedding; and the groom
sailed the day after the ceremony. Mr..
Blankart today told the story of the
cOurtship. He said:
General Funston-then Colonel Fun
stOn-Was introduced to my daughter
on the San Francisco pier. They, with
my wife and younger daughter and
some others, had been invited to spend
the day with a family at Belvedier.
When Funston saw my daughter, he
said to himself, as he afterwards told
the family, that he would make that
girl his wife, or live single all his days
A few hours later he began the attack
and in three weeks the victory was
won.
This was on Sunday. Funston ask
ed permission to call at our home,
which was granted. He called often
The second Sunday following, Funston
proposed. My daughter rejected on the
ground of short acquaintance. He per-
sisted in his campaign all week, but
without success. My daughter admit
ted that she was in love with him, but
wanted to wait till his return from the
Philippines.
The following Sunday Funston, Col
onel and Mrs MetcaIf, Lieutenant Col
onel Little, Captain Clark and perhaps
two or three other Kansas officers were
at our house. Funston asked Sadie
that's my daughters name-to take a
walk around the block. His plan of
battle was perfect, and ne began the
attack with vigOr. Well-they were
married the following Tuesday, and on
Wednesday Funston sailed with his
troops to Manila.
Am I pleased with General Funston? ?
My boy, 1 might answer that question
by asking you, Who isn't pleased with
Funston? And my daughter-she is as
