LIEUTENANT COLONEL VICTOR D. DUBoCE.
fred a corner of the church. The old
building burned like tinder, and the
flames drove the little brown soldiers
out into the open, where a volley from
the Californians sent them scurrying
toward the suburbs
Colonel Duboce is built on Shafterian
lines. his weight being considerably in
excess of 200 pounds. Because of his
marvellous proportions and fine bearing
as an equestrian he was selected to lead
many a parade on San Francisco holi-
days.
Colonel Duboce loves his home, and
at his residence on Baker street, San
Francisco, there is pretty little wife
who eagerly awaits news of her husband
Brigadier General King, better known
to the story reading public as Captain
Charles King, has gained new military
laurels in the Philippines After using
the pen SO long and with such success
you might think that he had forgotten
how to use the sword. But be has not.
In the first charge on the Filipinos he
led brigade of volunteers against a
much greater number of insurgents and
not only dislodged them, but drove
them panic stricken into the Pasig,
where many were drowned.
This exploit is about as brilliant and
dashing as any of those which he has
written about in his thrilling novels Of
military life. General King retired from
the regular army soon after the war on
account of stubborn bullet wound
which seemed loath to heal. He thought
his fighting days were over, and he took
up the pen. But when war times came
again the fighting author took the first
opportunity of going to the front, and
in the thrashing Of Aguinaldo's forces
he has added to the brilliancy of his
war record.
Still another brand new hero is Colo
mel Fred Funston. R0 is the officer who
led three companies Of his Kansas regi-
ment against the strongly intrenched
Filipino position before Calcocan. Had
the Filipinos been any kind of soldiers
the little body of Kansas volunteers
would have been wiped out. But the
attack was SO audacious and the impact
of those 800 war maddened men from
the Sunhower State was SO great that
the natives were dislodged and ran for
their lives after desperate but brief
resistance.
Colonel Funston is young man Of
about 80, who has had variety of ex-
perience for his years. He 10 direct
descendant of Daniel Boone and seems
to have inherited from the old hunter
and Indian killer love Of adventure.
He scaled Chilcoot pass five years ago
and penetrated far into the interior Of
our great northern territory.
On his return he went to Cuba and
became colonel in the army of Gen
eral Maxine Gomez. He returned to
the United States shortly before hostili-
ties between Spain and the United
States were declared, aud when Presi-
dent Mckinley called for volunteers he
organized the Twentieth Kansas and be-
came its commanding officer

The Salt Lake Mormons and Gentiles are
having a violent controversy over the Local
ton of the federal building appropriated
for by Congress at the last session. Tho
appropriation is 500. 900 and the building
is to be fine one. The Treasury Departl
ment is catching the brHnt of the contro$
versy in endless letters and petitions, but
Assistant Secretary Taylor says that he Will
settle the matter tomorrow or next day.
The differences have gone so far that the
Mormons have sent George Q. Cannon here
and he has visited the Treasury Department.

ter. The Mormons offer to give a fine site
close to the heart of the city and CONF
handing a splendid view. Ii is on 4 corr
ner across the street from the famous Tenn.
pie, the tabernacle and assembly hall. 1t is
on the same square with the tithing yard
and building, where the faithful Mormons'
take their tithes. The Gentiles offer to give
several sites. The chief of these is on I'd
South street. two blocks from Main street,
Assistant Secretary Taylor will take one
of the sites, as the government will thus
save money. The money saved Will be ox-
pended on the building. Both sites are closk
to the business center, but It is claimed that
the one offered by the Gentiles IS nearer
the center of business.
