GEN. FUNSTON IN IDAHO.
Noted Warrior Buys Land and Lots
in Irrigated Belt.

Brigadier General Frederick Funs-
ton attended the land drawing at
Twin Falls this week and took a
chance at the land. He failed to Sc
cure a favorable number from his
own drawing but purchased an eighty
acre tract near Hollister. He also in
vested in a business lot at Gooding.
General Funston expressed himself
as greatly pleased with the outlook
for southern Idaho and indicated his
faith in the country by his purchases.
Edward 7. Barber, of the Journal,
and General Funston were boyhood
friends in the years of long ago in
Kansas before the General dreamed
of Cuba or Aguinaldo or a general
ship in the army. But years of hon
ors and glory have in no way affected
the honest frank-natured nature of
the man as he was known when
boy. This was their first meeting
for thirteen years and during that
time General Funston has written his
name high up on the tablets of fame
