ant with the Twenty-first Infantry,
serving in the Philippines. But the
actual beginning of his military ca
reer was one evening in the spring OF
1896, when he happened in the vicinity
of a Cuban meeting in New York City.
He listened 10 the eloquent portrayal
of the suffering of the Cubans. and
the long and short of it was that he
abandoned his project of purchasing
extensive coffee plantations in Central
America and sailed for Cuba, 10 aid the
insurgent cause.
He had long and active service In
the island. under Gen. Gomez and Gen
Garcia Although he never joined the
Cuban army. except as a volunteer, he
rendered them very effective aid, and
was instrumental in winning some i'm
portant engagements. He was good
marksman and played havoc with the
Spaniards by his unerring aim OF the

the thick of it. At Calumpit Col.
Funston acquired wide notorlety
throughout the country for his feat In
swimming the Rio Grande River in the
face of heavy fire and establishing a
rope ferry, by means of which the
United States troops were able to cross
and win the battle.
TINS achievement was undoubtedly
chiefly instrumental In his promotion
May 2 1899. to the rank of brigadier
general of volunteers. A severe i'll
ness, caused by his old wounds. led to
his being relieved from duty the fol-
lowing August. and he returned with
the Twentieth Regiment to the United
States. He was given a most fiatter-
ing reception all the way back from tho
Pacific coast to Kansas. which State
presented him with a beautiful sword.
His name was even suggested for the
Vice Presidency on the Republican
ticket In the campaign OF 1900.

not many months distant. He spent
some weeks in New York City hospi-
tai, and when his health was fully re-
covered he started out to recuperate
his fortunes by lecturing. Soon after
wards Gen. Miles was starting South to
supervise the embarkation Of troops
for Cuba, and Funston sought an APP
pointment on his staff. Gen. Miles is
said to have contemplated his appoint
ment. but Gov Leedy of Kansas offer
ed him the colonelcy of the Twentieth
Kansas Volunteers. which he accepted.
That regiment, under Col. Funston's
command. became famous during the
operations in the Philippines. Al
though composed at the start OF raw
jayhawkers, they were thoroughly dis
ciplined, and made excellent soldiers.
He insisted on his own selections for
the promotion of officers. and Gov.

succeeded to the gubernatorial chair.

was brought to bear upon him TO do
otherwise.

heart. Together with 1.-THE Robbers"
Kabale und Liebe" Glove and In
trigue) is more strongly associated with
the name. and fame of Schiller than
any other of his works. There is no
drama written in a foreign tongue
more difficult than this powerful play,
and so when he determined to make a
production of the modern version of
the great classic, Manager Edward c..
White soon discovered that the under
taking was not only a difficult one, but
very expensive. The Schiller play was
written in five acts and thirty-seven
scenes. In 1.-The Power Behind the
Throne" there are four compact acts
and four scenes. Miss Holland per-
Sonally took an active interest in the
production of 1.-The Power Behind the
Throne" Accompanied by two en-
inent artists she spent an entire sum-
mer in Austria and in the libraries of
Berlin and Vienna. After months of
study and research, Miss Holland re-
turned to America and the work of pro-
ducing 1.-THE Power Behind the
Throne" began. Before the curtain
rose on the first performance upwards
of $4,000 had been expended on the
production.
Human Hearts" comes to the Grand
the first half of this week. To be
transported from the strife of town to
the atmosphere of hill country, with
It's simple, honest lsople, pursuing
their lives of affection and trust, is in
itself a refreshment. To hear the sing
oil do
associated with the farm, to hear and
see all things that flood the memory
with pleasant experiences or excite the
imagination to a realizing sense of the
poetry of common things, is not only
a relief from the cares of the day, but
a renewal of the better side of our ma
ture. In the realistic melodrama, HUI
man Hearts, whose scene is laid chief
ly among the hills Of Arkansas, we
find power and charm that takes us
from our present surroundings into
others that have this effect. The de-
tails of the drama are true to nature
and to art. Everything has its purpose
and furthers the main intention of an
all-absorbing story of love, hate, in
justice and retribution. The play en-
cages our sympathies for the suffer-
ings visited on family of plain. hon.
est people, through the unfortunate
marriage of village blacksmith with
q New York adventures, who thought
to reform but failed, the temptation OF
the old life proving too strong for her.
Not only these two but all associated
with them suffer by their mistake.
The dark side of this powerful story
is well balanced by humor, adroitly in
troduced and made necessary element
of the action.

at the Grand last week was fair, with

of THE Power Behind the Throne" is
an interesting dramatic event, not only
; on account of the ability and standing
of the eminent actress herself, but be-
cause in a way the play is novelty,
in that it is founded on one of the
earlier Schiller dramas (Kabale and

cassie German tragedy is a task
