GEN. FUNSTON
AFTER VILLA
HAS PROVED HIMSELF PECUL
IARLY FITTED FOR THE
TASK BEFORE HIM.
Major General Frederick Funston,
in charge of the expedition of the
United States army into Mexico, is
called the “lucky dog of the ser
vice.” He is always on the scene,
ready to greet trouble when it ar
rives. He was the one chosen to
take Aguinaldo in the Philippines.
He was on hand at San Francisco
when earthquake and fire visited
the coast. He was the one office!!
handy and the one selected when
President Wilson ordered Vera Cruz
taken. And he was the one chosen
to capture Villa. When he went
after Aguinaldo, the fighting gen
eral displayed qualities which dem
<nstrated that hc is neculiarlv fit
ted ior his latest task. In the
Philippines he had conceived a plan
for the capture of Aguinaldo which
met with approval. On March 6,
1901, he left Manila on the gunboat
Vicksburg with two lieutenants, two
captains, three insurgent officers
and 80 Macabebe scouts for Caci
guran Bay, which he reached at one
o’clock on the morning of March
15. Funston and his party march
ed 90 miles over rough mountain
trails to the little town of Palanan,
the headquarters of Aguinaldo, ar
riving eight days later. He sent
scouts to Aguinaldo, and the lat
ter, thinking that they were insur
gent reinforcements, received them,
and then found himself surrounded.
Funston took Aguinaldo single
handed. Curiously enough, among
Aguinaldo’s officers was one named
Villa. Not a single member of
Funston’s little command was even
wounded.
Failing in a competitive exam
ination for entrance to West Point,
where he would have been the class
mate of many men now fighting
under him, he went to Mexico and
there learned Spanish and the Mexi
can character thoroughly.
He became a newspaper reporter,
a surveyor, a mining prospector, a
government agent in Death Valley
and in Dawson, Alaska, a ticket
collector on the Santa Fe and the
commander of the artillery forces
of Gomez and Garcia in the Cuban
war of independence. He did bot
anical work for the government in
California and Alaska and once
wandered for twenty-four hours in
the desert, after his horse had died
from exhaustion and almost expired
from thirst before finding help.
He is said to have made the long
est journey on snowshoes ever com
pleted by a white man. Later in his
Alaskan experience he paddled alone
in a canoe, 1,100 miles down the
Yukon, collecting and cataloguing
botanical specimens and reading
Kipling nights for entertainment.

One million, live hundred thous
and visitors have registered in the
huge record books kept in the
Chamber of Commerce main ex
hibit hall at Los Angeles, Califor
nia. This count has just been com
pleted by the secretary and, among
the names, are several well known
residents of this town.
The present register has space
for 84,000 names and now is about
half full. There are nine of these
books that have been filled with
the autographs of visitors, the larg
est of which contains 200,000
names.
Every civilized spot on the globe
is represented. Each state in the
union and Canada contributes names
of tourists every week, and the an
nual total of more than 100,0001
registering and attending the illus
trated lectures ranges from Siberia
to South Africa. Presidents, ambas
sadors, foreign potentates and dis
tinguished citizens in all walks of
life are included.
The exhibit of California pro

most complete of its kind in any
commercial organization in the coun
try. Two floors of the six story
Chamber of Commerce building are
filled. A daily program Is given
free. This includes illustrated lec
tures, moving pictures and organ
recitals- It is claimed that the num
erous number of visitors is due to
the typical Southern California wel
come extended to strangers, who
in turn tell their friends of the
interesting sights to be seen.
