Kansas Fighting Colonel is at
Last Rewarded.
President Mckinley Makes Him
Brigadier General.
OTIS AND MACARTHUR
Both Strongly Recommend the
Appointment.
His Value as Leader of Troops
is Pointed Out.

Washington, May 2.-The president
hassappointed Colonel Frederick Fun
ston of the Twentieth Kansas a briga-
der general of volunteers. This ap-
pointment was recommended by Major
General Macarthur and supplemented
very strongly by General Otis in a ca
BILE dispatch received yesterday.
General Macarthur said that the SER
vices of Colonel Funston during the
campaign and especially in the cross
ing of the Rio Grande river deserve
recognition such as his promotion to be
a brfgadier general. also that as a lead
er of troops Col. Funston was especial
ly valuable.
The president recognizes the services
of Colonel Funston and his first ofrlclal
act upon returning to Washington was
to make him a brigadier general.
The cable which Gen. Otis sent yes
+erdav saws: Macarthur strongly
recommends Col. Funston's appoint
ment brigadier general for signal skill
and gallantry crossing Rio Grande
river and most gallant services since
commencement of the war. I urge ap-
pointment. Funston able as leader OF
ynen and has earned recognition

AGULNALDO NOT IN IT.
London, May 2.-The Filipino junta
say that they have received a telegram
he states that his government has moth
gotiations, which he asserts are being
conducted by a group of half castles
and CreOleS, who are anxious for peace
in the expectation of getting high offices
under a new government. Several of
these men Aguinaldo says, are members
of the Filipino congress where they are
endeavoring to out vote him. Aguinaldo
added that he had had no dealings with
the Americans since the fall of Malolos
when certain proposals passed between
Mr.. D. c. Worcester of the American
Philippine commission and a represen-
tative of Aguinaldo looking to a peace
based upon independence with an
American alliance. AguinaldO diSavOws
the present negotiations and adds that
under no circumstances will he accept
an American protectOrate.
The. dispatch concludes with a con-
temptuous reference to Major Arguelles
, a Spanish officer who has no more
authority to act on behalf of AguinaldO
than has Luna himself

Wellington Journal Reports Lyman
Naugle's Boy is Missing.

Wellington, May 2.-The Journal says:
Last Thursday night Fred NaugIe was
sent to Wichita to assist in getting out
the special edition of the Peoples Voice.
Before leaving he was paid in full for
his interest in the Voice plant. Not a
word was received from him, and this
afternoon r. L. Collins telephoned to
Wichita to know how things were get
ting along. The publishing house in
formed him that things were at a stand
still and that Fred NaugIe had not been
there. An extra effort will be made to
get out the edition this week.
Naugle sent his wife and babies to her
parents home in Oklahoma a week ago
Saturday night. When he left Welling-
ton he went north over the Santa Fe.
r. L. Collins paid a number of bills
for Fred Naugle today, expecting to be

meath and swan under heavy fire right
into the face of the enemy. Such dar-
ing was unknown to the Filipinos and
they retreated in disorder, leaving Col
Funston and his qUintette of brave fol-
lowers in possession of their trenches.
He is deserving of all the honor it is
proposed to bestow upon him.
A NEW AMERICAN HERO.
The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
There is a new American hero today.
1t is Col Fred Funston of the Kansas
volunteers He is little, only five feet
high. Sheridan was little SO was
Bonaparte. He is red-headed, and all
his life he has been doing daring things
Once he made a journey of 1,500 miles
down the Yukon river in a canoe and
escaped with his life by one miracle
after another. Miracles seems to pre-
serve the lives of the few men who act
as if they despised death For nearly
two years he fought under Gomez in
Cuba. Wounded twice and crushed by
his horse, he fell into the hands of the
Spaniards, and on the outbreak of the
war between this country and Spain was
appointed colonel of the Kansas regi-
ment.
Three times now Col Funston has
swan across rivers in the Philippines
in, the face of the insurgents fire. The
third time was on Thursday, when he
swan the Rio Grande, with one end of
a long rope between his teeth, holding
his revolver with one hand above the
hand. The F'ilipinos on the opposite bluff
fired on him steadily, but missed their
target. The Kansas soldier, with one
soldier who had accompanied him, then
pulled a raft bearing ten soldiers across
the stream, and they in their turn pulled
other loaded RATS to the insurgent side.
Col. Funston then led a charge upon
the enemy's flank and the FilipinOs fled
from their stronghold, which they had
believed inaccessible, and straightway
asked for an armistice.
This daring feat of Colonel Funstons 5
has the appearance of being the most gal
1t recalls the daredevil acts combined
with cool ingenuity of which the civil war
was so prolific. In its results it was more
important than the act of HObson, for Il
