When diminutive, stuli nosed, red heuded Colonel Funston brought tlie Twentieth Kansas regiment to the Presidio on Its way to the Philip pines the San Francisco people poked fun at the “ country Jakes" and tlielr colonel. That was during the Spanish war. A few years later, when earthquake and fire had devastated that city, red headed Fn’ :;uii was the Idol of the Frisco people. The doughty little brigadier faced the most trying situation of his life. Fully 300.000 |>eople were homeless, disorganized, many of them distracted. Thieves preyed. Harpies attacked the dead licdles. The situation required more than courage Poise, keenness, vigor, were needed. l-'unston was equal to the emergency. When lie ordered the soldiers to shoot ttie looters on sight and to com pel Idle and unwilling men to work at the point o f the bayonet he took a great risk. Would the war department support him? Yes or no, Funston shut down the lid of the hell that was lieglnnlng to rage and sat upon It. No West Point man would have dared sueli n thing without consulting Washington. And that Is where tho volunteer officer has the advantage— If, like Funston, he has the brains to use the opportunity. They put another officer over Fun ston later on when the work was done. Hut history can never rob the little brigadier of the supreme hour when lie saved San Francisco from Itself. ‘Lucky Funston" they call him In the army. And they say he Is a poser. But how could the gallant red headed Kan san help It If the correspondents pic tured him as swimming the Ragbag river with a rope tn hts teeth? At their worst the correspondents only slightly exaggerated the real Fun ston. Because— Down deep beneutb his little swag ger the Napoleonic general has sa- gnclty, judgment and the grit of a bulldog. He has proved that ever since he went down lone handed to help the Cuban Insurgents. Lucky? He has been lucky ns Napoleon was lucky and Charles Martel and Plill Sheridan. Let no American boy read llie biog raphy o f Frederick Funston to fortify his theory that men go the upward way by means o f luck. Exactly tho opposite Is revealed In the brilliant «ire e r of this American general. I mangled body was taken from under the tangled mass o f twisted Iron Into , which the engine was smashed. The fireman who Jumped escaped j serious injury. Tho heroism o f Christopher Bentz saved the train. It was very clear that I had he left his engine many paasen- I gers would have been killed. Bentz knew It when he died for them. He saved others: himself he could | not save. With the rustle o f Haunting flags overhead and with the echo o f the ring ing tiugte charge In thetr ears men will die. With the flush o f coufltot on thetr cheeks and the Are o f fighting 111 their eyes men will lay down thetr lives In the mad impulse o f tho battle shock. But— When death ». snly np|>enrs In the guise o f hor- .ck; when It looks you In the lain t a Hush and dares you to duty, Instant, unflinching— That’s another thing. Fuller sueli n stress human flesh mid blood quails before the horrid ordeol, and ouly the mighty spirit o f a sn preme self sacrifice can hold It to such a frightful destiny. Behind the heroic engineer In the vestibule roaches the passengers lolled and chatted and smoked. They were unmindful, unsuspecting. They loved their lives. But so did he. They had their homes and loved ones. But so had he. Christopher Bentz, home and w ife nnd babies. Would he widow bis w ife nnd leave Ills fatherless children to the cold mer cies o f uncertain future? Yes! For duty calls. In olden days shrines were bullded In places where men died for thetr fel low men—and rightly, for that ground was holy ground. There Is no shrine at the side o f the Frisco track where Christopher Bentz laid down hts life, but It Is holy ground Just the same. A YOUNG FOOL. He sits on n high stool nnd works at the bonks of tils Arm fo r “ steen1 dollars per wee. He Is o f the k I that keep thetr eyes on the clock. hen It strikes S he closes his Mg ledger with a bang and hurries to the car that takes him to tits boarding house. H e eats a hasty Biipper and Inquires o f Ids landlady concerning his laun dry (the one hill lie keeps paid Is bis laundry bill). Putting on bis best clothes, he hikes away to the drug store corner to meet the gang. The gang Is made up o f such as he— glided youth who fancy themselves 24 carats tine. The gangsters smoke clgnrettes and ogle young girls until a drink Is sug gested. The stuff braces the crowd and suggests further libations. The young man hns forgotten a lot o f things. He has forgotten his board bill and Ills frequent promises to pay. He has forgotten that the boss said to him not long since: “ You are not making good, young mnn. You better be more careful or I shall have to let you out.” The motto o f the gang Is, “ Eat, drink nnd be merry, for tomorrow— who cares for tomorrow?" The young chaps seemingly go on the theory that the only way to be happy Is to make a fool of oneself, nnd they live up to thetr beliefs. They tip the waiters at the mid night cafes. They pose In luxurious admiration of themselves. They are not drunk enough to run tn; they are just mellowed to astnlnlty. Somewhere about 8 o'clock in the morning the young man tumbles Into bed with Ills clothes on. The alarm clock falls to wake him at 0:30, and the maid pounds on the door to tell him breakfast Is ready. It Is the cold gray morning o f the day after. His head feels as I f It were as big ns a cart wheel. He drags himself to a fnucet nnd lets the cold water revive him sufficiently to get down to the office at 7:30. No breakfast for him. There are many errors nnd erasures in his book. Ills hands tremble; his stomach Is nauseated; there Is a "seal brown” taste tn tils month; Ills liver 1» clogged nnd his vitality lowered. Will he reform? He will make re solves. but his will power will fall to grip. Next week he will be out again with the gang. And some day he will go to the hospital—or the morgue. Who Is this young mnn? His name ts legion. THE WAY TO HELL.
