128 South Main Street. New Telephone 08. A Company Private is Deserving For His Courage as Much as Are His Officers. Topcta Capital In the press report from Manila occurs this paragraph: "Colonel Frederick Funston called for volunteers to cross the river and the Colonel himself, Lieutenant Ball, a private of Company a private of Company 'E, trumpeter Barsfield and Corporal Ferguson, of Company crawled along the iron girders." Kansans have had good reason before to feel proud of the valor which is Colonel Funston's second nature, and they are pleased to note that Lieutenant Ball, Trumpeter Barsfield and Corporal Ferguson exhibited a degree of courage which places them in the same class with their chief; but there would have been much more pleasure in reading the paragraph quoted had it contained the names of "a private" of Company "K' and "a private" of Company who had a share in the deeds of daring and who have the same claim to glory as the officers, if not more, because they have full knowledge of the fact that the personality of the private is too frequently lost, even though their courage displayed may be of the highest grade. It is hoped that later dispatches will give the names of these two boys.

Kansas sent a whole regiment of heroes over to the Philippines and of course don't expect to have each one receive personal mention whenever there is an engagement; but when six men out of a regiment, in the face of a fire from the enemy, crawl across a pertiou of a dismantled bridge and swim part of the way to shore, the name of every man ought to be given in recounting the episode. "In the meantime," quoting from the press report of the battle before Calumpit, "Company Twentieth Kansas led by Captain Boltwood performed one of the most brilliant achievements of the campaign. The regiment was being held in reserve and Company 'K' charged a distance of a quarter of a mile over a corn field to the bank of the river." If the Filipinos expect to ever gain one single point in the game they will have to use better judgment in selecting battle grounds." Those boys from Kansas will always win out in corn fields, as over half of them are onto the most ap proved method of making the best pos sible time across the furrows. COLLKfiE XOTKS.
