In spite of all tils plons, Kunstou was all but frozen from tbc presence of the Cuban Juuta. The story that 1 am now going to tell was that related to uie by Funston himself durlug the ten days thut I was his guest nt Sun Fernnudo, Immediately after he had received the Blugle star that raised him from a col onelcy to a brlgadlershlp In the volun teers. As he told the story on himself, and ns It Illustrates the extremely quiet audacity of the "bantam" general from Kansas, there can be no harm lu retell ing the narrative to-day. "We don't need recruits," said tho head of the New York Juuta, "and we can't avail ourselves of your services, but we are looking for a competent a highly competent artillery oltlcer. If you know of bucu n man we will feel deeply grateful If you will send him to us." Fuuston's eyes became alight as If by uiuglc. "An artillery ottlcer?" he repeated. "Then I think, gentlemen, that perhaps I may suit you." "Do you know anything about tho management of cannon?" Questioned the head of the Junta. In n twinkling Funston bad his watch In hand. "Gentlemen," he answered regretful ly, "1 have an appointment that de mands the rest of to-day and much of to-morrow. May I ask another meeting with you for tho day after to-morrow? If this suits your convenience, I shall then be glad to prove my qualifications as nn artillery olllcer." Receiving tho assent of the Cuban Junta, Fuustou withdrew. On the fol lowing morning he visited Fort Hamil ton, I believe It wns, where he made tho casual acquaintance of some of the artillery officers there stationed. With tho skill of one somewhat accustomed to Journalistic Interviewing, he suc ceeded In gaining from tho otllccrs Bomo vaguo IdeaB of the theory of bal listics. Of each Item of Information he mado mental note. At the same time he secured a list of the best works on the subject of artillery manipulation. Thus scantily equipped, yet with all tho assurance of the man who knows his opportunity, and who knows ho can seize It, Funston presented himself be fore the Juuta at the appointed hour. He came In with the breathless air of ono fresh from a previous and almost conflicting appointment. Obeying tho request of tho Junta to explain what he knew about artillery practice, the young Kantian rattled off all the prattle about big guns that he had picked up the day before. So glibly did he talk of matters of which he did not possess even tin academic Niuntterlng that he was commissioned on the spot as an artillery oltlcer In the Cuban service. He wus given passage on the next 1111 blistering steamer that left this coun try. . J "On my way to O'Jbu." Gen. Funston told me at Sun Fepiaudo, In the early summer of 1801), "II locked myself In my stateroom, spending all my waking Iioui-h lu devouring the works I Inid been recommended to read by United States artillery otllccrs. Ilefore reach lug the Cuban coust 1 tossed all but one or two of tho smaller books overboard and went ashore. In our Hint serious engagement ugaltist Spanish troops I found myself In charge of two small pieces of Held artillery. Tho fellow Who handled the other gun was a for mer non-commissioned olllcer In the Spanish army. I directed him as best I could, and sighted the other piece. "That battle resulted lu a Cuban vic tory, but I folt sure that I had mado a dismal failure. Gen. Gomez came stalk ing up to mo with the same stem air that always struck terror Into tho hearts of his subordinates. Guilty conscience made me feel certain that, for wasting ammunition, I was to bo shot dead within an hour. Gen. Gomez extended his hand, complimenting me upon my splendid service of tho guns! You see, most of tho Cubans hud less knowledge of nrtlllery pructlce than I had contrived to gleau on my few (lays' voyage to Cuba. That sergeant of mine was a genuinely good fellow. Ho held his tongue." II. I. Hancock, In Leslie's Weekly. Mixing Brains with tho Soil. Booker T. Washington says that the colored graduates of Tuskegeo have raised over 250 bushels of sweet potatoes from an acre of ground lu the same locality where the uneducated colored man raises less than tlfty bush els to the acre. Mr, Washington at tributes the great difference In the crops to the knowledge of the chemis try of the soil which the educated ne gro has acquired. He says that the white farmers in the neighborhood respect the colored graduates, becauso of their superior knowledge and skill, and that they come to them for pro gressive Ideas. Iron Smelting Many CenturleH Aj;o. The smelting of Iron lu Hheltleld, England, Is supposed to date from Ho man times, and there Ib distinct pioof carrying It back as far as the Norma n conquest, In 10CC. The town had be come famed for Its cutlery by tho four teenth century. The town was the capital of Hallamshlre from the Nor man conquest. Owing to the antiquity of the town It Is not known exactly when it was founded. Corns, I'erliaps. "Doctor," said the stingy man, who was trying to save a fee, meeting Ur, Sbarpo on tho street, "what do you think of this? Very frequently I get severe pains In my feet. What's that n sign of?" "I should say that was a blsu of rain," replied the doctor. 1'hlludnlphla Press. HELENA NEWS. W J. Whcntoll. The festival of racing in Hutto lias culled n number of stranger to tlio city. Ainonj; tliem wo notice Frank Golden, the old time progrumcr. Mrs. Williams, of Missoula, is visiting Sergeant and Mrs. Owens at Fort Harrison. Mrs. Williams is quite u favorite in tho community and tlicro uro numerous pleasure par ties planned for her during her .itu.v in our midst. A number of ladies from Helena ami adjoining cities have concluded to visit llutto during tho street fair and carnival. Among them will be Mies Clurindti Crump. Miss Crump will bo tho guest of Mrs. Louise Henry dur ing her stay in tlio smoky city. I hope it will not bo necessary very soon for any of us to need the services of Herman k Co. in their capacity of undertakers but wo can call and look over his lino lino of furniture, carpets, rugs, pictures, etc., tluvso things that delight the eye and catch tho fancy of tho most fastidious housekeeper. The advertisement of Herman & .Co. will be found in our columns. Albert Marshall is classed among tho old timers of Helena. For years ho has l)cen in tho employ of Uncle Sam as a messenger in tho United States assay olllce. . Mr. Marshall is a property owner in tho city. Ho has ii beautiful home, presided over by a charming wife who makes u hostess worthy of tho man. Albert, Jr., is a veritable chip oil' tho old block and bids fair to follow in tho footsteps of tho father. Arthur 1'nlmer nnd A. G, Mason havo left on a pleasure trip to Denver unci tho Southwest. Tho young men will undoubtedly havo n good time It is rumored that Arthur will bring baok a young lady who formerly was ono of tho Queen City's leading belles. Ho has been very reticent ulout tlio matter, although a blush would mantle his cheek whenever tho topic, was mentioned. It is hoped by his and the numerous friends of tho young lady in Helena that such may bo tho case. Another young man who is rapidly coining into public notice is Henry Baker. Mr. Baker is at present the head waiter at the Grundnu hotel, and is also acting as the Worshipful Mas tor of Byrd Lodge. Ho is very popu lar among tho men, and good iiutured, amiable mid public spirited withal. Ho has been recently married and comfortably domiciled, and if nothing should happen to mar tho forecast of tho future, tho friends of Mr. Baker arguo for him a splendid future. Among tho numerous nflloiaU who have mado themselves popular is Daniel Sweeney, county auditdr for Lewis and Clarke county. W hen Danny runs for olllce all partisanship is thrown to tho winds, and as a gen eral thing Democrats, 1'opulists and Republicans tint the cross before tho miino of Daniel Sweeney. What is the caiiNU of his popularity, you ask? What spell does ho weave around therewith whom he comes in contact? It is his invariable good humor, his unparalleled courtesy that wins. No dill'crcuco who may claim his atten tion, bo it tho poor indigent who craves tho succor of tho county, or homo political autocrat, each is met by that good humored salutation that makes and retains friends. Mr. Sweeney is a young man and hu has his political future in his keeping, and unless by some overt act of his ho throws his chances to the winds it is an assured fact that thu llrst rung in thu ladder of his ambition has only lwon readied. It tieems strango to us, located hern in tho heart of tlio mountains, where every night ono can have an invigor ating sleep, to read of the distress created in tho cities of tho Kasteru states by tho excessive heat. Our climate can Ihj excelled by no spot in these United States. In the inline diato vicinity of Helena tho winters have an equitable temperature and no ditVoronco how sultry tho day, thu night has a .delightful coolness that makes ono's sleep an invigorating, restful pleasure, ami you awake ready to lx-'gin tho duties of the day with energy. The sympathy of Montana goes out to tho poor of the great cities of tho East who havo recourse to tho heated pavements in order to gain even thu semblance of repose. Heait felt words of sorrow aro spoken for tho helpless little ones who succumb to tho terrible conditions. It is a con dition that philanthropy can do nothing to assuage. True, tho socie ties can and do partly alleviate tin) sufferings of tho poor who crowd thu tenements by u system of outings, hut tho in asses cannot bo reached, no dilterence how thorough tho organiz ation. I'itiablo ut the best, this great heat wavo has mado tho sufferings of tho poor in tho largo cities a dreadful thing to contemplate. Never before lias tho St James A. M. K. chapel presented such a lcau t if ti 1 uppcaruueo us it did on Sunday. The occasion was the annual sermon of K. J. Fletcher Jodgo No. 101, A. F, & A, M. Flowers in Montana are not very prolific, yet the committee of ladies from tho Eastern Star, which organization also turned out in a body, did themselves proud. An arch, from which hung tho square and compass, extended from one end of tho chancel to tho other. It was twined with smilux. lluro potted plants and palms were banked in the chancel, stands containing vases of cut flowers wero profusely inter 'itemed and the whole formed u pic turo that was the admiration of all who witnessed it. Tho artistic de corations wero duo entirely to Mes dames Marshall, Gordon, Nappor and Taylor. Arriving at the church, the lodge, preceded by tho nieinliers of thu Eastern Star, marched into tho chapel to the strains of a march played by the organist. Calling tho lodge to order, Worshipful Master David Gordon .introduced the cere monial master, who was Past Wor shiplul Master W. H. Dorsoy, who in a few well chosen words introduced the ltev. J. F. C. Taylor, who deliv ered u good and wholesome Masonic sermon. It was fraught with good things, and teemed with brilliant thoughts and bright ideas. Tho ser mon completed, tho muster of cere monies called upon MrB.-Fannio War field, Worthy .Matron of tho Star, who read an excellent paper, citing its origin, praising ita aims, and prophesying its future. 'I ho lady acquitted herself with credit. W. J. Wheaton, tho S. W. of tho Lodge, was called upon and responded to tho call by speaking to tho query: "Am I my brother's keeper?" Tho address was favorably received. After givilig a substantial donation to tho Jlov. who delivered tho sermon, tho service was closed by singing tlio closing odo of tho Star. Everything moved off nicely, nnd thus closed one of tho Jirettiest ceremonies of tho year. H. K Fletcher lodge voted thanks to the ladies who contributed to tho beauty of tho occasion by tho artistic floral decorations, Carl Hocbor. Furniture, uphol sterer and carpet layer.
