 agricultural; industrial and education al Apart from an opportunity of
 hearing the Hon. Champ Clark and
 other notabies-of city. state and nation speak on Labor day. visitors have the biggest programme of sport for the

She does it, however, and seems to take great de- light in it, at that. This will be a free feature every day. as will Mme. Ma rie's burlesque circus, which includes a big company of actors. horses. po- nies. donkeys monkeys dogs and cats, all doing their utmost to chase dull care away. Every night there will be a great spectacular reproduction of Commodore Perry's victory at the bat tie of Lake Erie, a production involv ing an enormous company of actors, carloads of scenery and a wonderful display of fireworks.
 Cattle will be shown at the fair every day from 12 to 2 o'clock. with blankets off. This time is selected as it is the warmest part of the day, so that the animals will not catch cold. On Tuesday, Ayrshires and Holsteins
 will be judged. On Wednesday, Jerseys and Guernseys will be judged. The l big cattle parade will take place Thursday afternoon, headed by a band and mounted horsemen. About 300 b1ooded stock will be in line.

A DIsCoURAGING TALE.

There was a pnilanthropic watch Deserving emulation; For each hand gave with modesty Devoid of ostentation. The minute hand gave back the past, A priceless gift and golden, Nor did 1t tell it's brother hand How folks were made beho1den. The hour hand the future gave Twas worthy of attention. But never to the other hand Did 1t make any mention. Ingratitude befell this watch Of charitable leaning; The owner sought a Jeweler Who said 1t needed cleaning.

All his life General Funston has
been man OF quick action. Whether
in Cuba. the Philippines. after the
San Francisco earthquake or i'll Mex
leo to think with him has been to
do. He has made the ideal soldier
brief. decisive and thorough. His
military campaigners have been
short. aggressive and always victo-
rious, and his life's one romance
when he wooed Mrs. Funston. waa
carried out with the same expedi-
ency. w.. f. 49,.
Funston was colonel OF the Twen-
tieth Kansas in 1888. The regiment
was at Camp, Merritt. Sat- Fran.
cisco, daily expecting orders either
to return to Kansas and be mustered
out. or to go to the Philippines. All
summer the. regiment and Funston
had fumed and fused preparing tor
. war that apparently wasn't conf
ing. ,...... .-.
One day, early in October. among
the visitors to Camp Merritt might
have been noticed a dark-eyed. hand
some girl on the arm OF q grey-beard-
ed man, unmistakably veteran OF
81. The Kansas colonel and the vet
sran met. The veteran introduced
his daughter, Miss Edna Blankart,
and there Funston's romance began.
All the world-rich man, poor
man. beggar man. thief-can feel a
thrill In the way the bantam col
onel" conducted his suit. His tao
tics were the direct ones OF a SOL
der. Here was a woman he could
love, did love; 80 he told her.. There
is no word on record to show Mrs.
Funston's feelings when the impet.
uous colonel wooed her. But she.
perhaps seeing the star Of destiny
that apparently is Funston's personal
property. yielded after three
weeks assault on her heart. october
rs they were married.
".This was by far the smartest
thing / ever DID, said Funston
years. later.
Mrs. Funston became veteran
army wife without further formality.
Two days after her marriage her SOL
dter-husband nailed for the Philip
pines with two battalions OF his
regiment. but the bride was not
made in the stay-at-hone pattern
November she followed on the
transport Newport. carrying the
Third battalion OF the Twentieth
Kansas.
A month later the bride and groom
were reunited in Manila harbor
Surely not much stranger honeymoon
was ever had. The first man aboard
the Newport when It arrived was
Colonel Funston, and there were
plenty OF other wives. and two OF
yhem brides, aboard.
All sorts OF vexations now arose
to tax the young wife's patience. a
quality she has shown in hundreds
OF ways since. Ne house could bu
obtained. She lived aboard the
transport Indiana several days. Then
she went on a mild rebellion. She
was married to man who was work
ing and getting ready to fight some
where in the city before the ship.
she reasoned, and she might be OF
help. SO. with Mrs. whitman, wife
OF one OF her husbands majors. she
went ashore. For three days the two
women slept in Colonel Funston's
office. Then a house was found.
The outbreak OF the Filipino re.
beilion February e. 1899. forced the
Fnnstons to give up their home. The
colonel led his regiment to the front
while hts wife, with other army wonl-
en-, moved into the vacated barracks.
Then began the long days OF wait
ing, the hourly fear that the next list
of dead and wounded would have
his name.
