VICTORY NOT EXTRA SWEET
sissbee Bibbs Accomplished Aim Of
Life, but Achievement acked
Supreme satlsfact on.

At last Sigsbee Bibbs had amassed
the fortune for which he had been
striving for 20 years.
At last he was ready to crafty
that ambition which had helped to
keep his spirits up during the long
years of hard work.
Twenty years before, while sell
ing newspapers in the fashionable
seaside resort of Shrimpbeach, he
had peered in the windows Of the big
hotels and envied the men as they
ate pate de foie fritters in their full
dress suits. And he resolved that as
soon as he had made his pile his
first act would be to walk into one
of those dining rooms in a full-dress
suit and order pate de foie fritters.
That thought alone, that cleaning
beacon, had lighted him through the
years Of struggle in the buttonhole
factory.
And at last the time had come.
In a perfectly fitting, made-to-or-
der $S5 dress suit Sigsbee Bibbs
staggered into the dining room Of
the largest and most fashionable hO-
tel in Shrimpbeach.
The immense room was crowded,
but with the exception of the head
waiter not another man beside Sigs-
bee Bibbs was wearing full dress

TROUBLED BY THIRST
Arabs Endure Life On a Very Small
Amount Of Water, as Compared to
Needs Of Europeans.

According to a traveller who has
journeyed across the great Sahara
desert, the Arabs there have an idea
that Europeans are a sort Of amphib-
ious race, for only on this theory can
they understand the great quantity
of liquids we absorb as compared
with themselves
To us, two days, or even less, in
the desert without water would mean
madness or death. But the native
will cheerfully march for three days
at a stretch without drinking. He
will even endure a fourth days abb
stinence without much suffering, but
after that the Arabs mind becomes
clouded, and he will fasten himself to
the saddle of his camel, trusting that
the instinct Of the animal will lead
him to a pool of water. The author.
ity, however, described as a fable the
old story that the camel carries
reservoir of water in its body, an(
that the Arab when dying Of thirs
kills his camel in order to Obtain
the precious fluid.

COURSES
IN AGRICULTURE
A Door of Opportunity for Mis-
souri, Teachers and Others.

souri, Teachers and Others.
The best time to teach agricul-
.ture is in the summer. The Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture, in
common with all other colleges
of agriculture, has recognized
the school year as beginning in
September and ending in June.
AS a result, the very best
months of the year for teaching
many phases of agriculture have
not been utilized. During the
Summer Session of 1916 the
Missouri College of Agriculture
will offer for the first time all
of the prescribed agricultural
subjects which are accepted to-
ward the degree of Bachelor OF
Science in Agriculture.
The special agricultural work
for men and women will include
cutting and curing meat meth
DDS of analysis Of soils, feeding
stuffs, and fertilizers; stock
Judging; animal nutrition; ami.
NAL breeding; the production
and marketing or diary pro.
ducts; judging, grading ant
testing grains and seeds; croI
production and rotation; or.
charding; gardening; poultry
raising; soils; food selection
cooking and sewing. Thus thu
women will have an opportunity
to take courses in home econom
les Just as the men take tn
courses in agriculture which ar
of special interest to them.
These summer courses in agri
culture will offer a rare oppor
tunity to teachers who desire t
secure instruction in agricultur
al subjects. The credits mad
in these subjects will be accept
ed for the Bachelor of Scienc
degree in agriculture.
A new feature offered thi
; year for the first time will b
=. field courses in farm manage
/ ment. In these courses student
will live on a successful farl
and study the business of farm
ing right on the ground. A fu

FUNSTON, M OF
BAD MEN, is ON JOB
AguinaldO's CaptOr Rose to Top
By a Series of Daring
Exploits

Exploits
The fighting man who has
struck into the deserts and
mountains strongholds of Mex
leo to "get Villa, dead or alive"
is the same Fred Funston who
was ordered just fifteen years
ago this month to get Aguin-
aldo" The long arm of coinci-
dence has reached out to push
the little General from Kansas
to the forefront as the dependa-
BILE man, when nerve combined
with guile, is required by Uncle
Sam.
Gen. Funston has been getting
what he went after, whether it
was bad men or imperative re-
suits, ever since he was gradual
ed into long trousers. He is 81
years of age now and his career
has been crammed with adven-
turous episodes. He was 16
when his father, Foghorn Funs-
ton, moved from Carlisle, Ohio,
to Southwestern Kansas. In
1885 young Fred entered the
state University Of Kansas,
where he had for a classmate
William Allen White. There was
a negro in the college town who
started for Funston one day
with a cleaning razor. The
negro weighed 200 pounds.
Funston barely 100. The negro
was 6 feet tall, Funston 5 feet
8 inches. In fifteen minutes
Funston had the half-crazy mar
in the lookup and hadn't musseC
even his own clothing.
When he left college Genera
Funston got a job as city edito-
of a paper in Ft. Smith. 1t wa.
Democratic of course. The da.
before the election the editor-in
chief left town and he wa
temporarily the boss. Next da,
the paper appeared as a Red no
Republican sheet, %reviling a
things Democratic. AS a crow
gathered at the front door youn
Funston retired by the back an
from journalism. He explaine
later that he was weary Of news
paper work, 'tired of a rotte
town, a rotten sheet and its 70
ten politics, and l thought
would wake things up a bit b
fore l left, just to show them
was alive"

His next job was as a condu
tor on the Santa Fe. A COY

whiskey, shot holes in a car ce.

sought for it in 1898, during a
hard Klondike winter, when he
made his escape after spending
weeks with a band of Indians.
Gen. Funston was in this city
in 1896 when the late Gen.
Sickles made a rousing speech
at Madison Square Garden in be-
half Of the oppressed Cubans
Moved by the appeal for Cuban
Libre, Gen. Funston offered his
services to the Cuban Junta,
although he knew nothing about
military affairs.
The Cubans were glad to have
this vigorous youth and Gen.
Funston set himself to study
the intricacies of twelve pound
er Hotchkiss rifles and other
things that a soldier should
know. Gen. Gomez made him
second in command to Winches-
ter Dana Osgood the Cornell
football player who had charge
of the insurgent artillery. Gen.
Funston distinguished himself
for bravery at Guimaro in Oc-
tober, 1896, when Osgood was
killed. He took command and
with a dynamite bomb in his
hand led a charge that broke the
Spanish front and ended the
fight. At Bayamo he was
wounded three times and his
horse killed under him. He was
in the thick of the fighting at
Las Tunas. After this battle
the Cubans insisted on shoot
ing fifty prisoners. Funston
protested, was waved aside ant
promptly resigned his commiss'
ion. Gen. Garcia gave him al
order for transportation and {
safe conduct. He fell in will

| documents. On reaching tn

blow that won a battle. For this
he was made a Brigadier- Gener-
al of Volunteers. Gen. Otis des-
.cribed him as "the greatest
daredevil in the army, a man
who would rather fight than

Aguinaldo was footloose then
and a nuisance, as every one re-
members. From inaccessible
mountain strongholds he sal
lied out to raid American pa
trolls and burn villages. 1t was
certain that his capture would
break the backbone of the re-
volt, but nobody seemed to know
how to reach him. He was hid
ing in the mountains near the
northeast corner of Luzon. 1t
happened that cipher letters
sent by Aguinaldo to one of his
Lieutenants fell into the hands
of Lieut.. Taylor of the Twenty
fourth Infantry. The letters
revealed that Aguinaldo was
awaiting reinforcements at "a
definite time. Gen. Funston
conceived the plan Of Disgusting
a force of seventy-nine Filipino
scouts as Aguinaldo expected
achievements. At the head of
this command and accompanied
by four ex-insurgent officers

IIjungle where no white man ever
