Beattie’s PopularPriced Department Store BECOND AVENUE, BETWEEN SPRING AND SENECA General Joffre, Frenc Amy Head, Served First in Prussian War 10.—The man of the hour in France fs Gen. J, J. C Jethie asmmnanaechien of the French armies. | ‘The French idoltse the dashing type of general—-the slim fellow, with pointed mustache and eagle leye—the beau ideal like Gen. | Beauregard of the American con- | federate army. Joftre is none euch. He's rather stocky and heavy of jaw. He looks more like an English or American officer. And the French are cot toning to him because, they say, he’s solid, he’s not impulsive, be won't throw away the armies of that dear France. Joffre is credited with being an organizer of victory. He does not believe in flashes of genius. He knows that long and careful prepar ation is necessary He has been at the head of the army for three years. Never for 4 single waking hour in those three years has he forgotten the purpose for which he was appointed—to prepare for the struggle in which France ts engaged today. If @ month or two ago you had gone to see him at his home fn Paris you would have found a stout man, heavily built, apparently liv. ing the ordinary life of a profes: sional Parisian with his wife and daughters. His wide brow, under close-crop- ped white hair, is tranquil. His blue eyes are calm and clear. Be neath a heavy, white mustache hir lips are firm; they show his teeth a little when he talks. He does not talk much, What he says is pithy and to the point the result of quiet reflection and @ é study, expressed in quiet, stra " lorward sentences, A man of gen tle, kindly manners, slow-moving, Gen. Joffre contemplative. That is Gen. Joffre at home, In the field, as in his office at the ministry of war, he 1s another man, a man “as hard as pails.” He gives orders and expects them to be carried out exactly; if they are not, there 1s trouble. He may sym- pathize with the incompetent, but he cannot overlook failure, After the maneuvers of last year he dismissed five generals. France, which had known little of this masterful chief of the general staff before, suddenly became aware that its armies were being reorganized by an exceptional man. When war was declared, jn 1870, he had scarcely finished one year | at the Polytechnique, which is the French West Point. At 18, there fore, he was given his commission | part in the defense of Paris during the siexe He attracted attention; he was employed in the reconstructing of | the Paris fortifications | and one day Marshal MacMahon, after inspecting his work, put | upon his shoulder and sald: “I congratulate you, Captain Joffre.” Captain at 22! A few years later he went out to command troops in the field, He was victorious in Tonkin (French Indo-Ghina), After this he won distinc- tion in Formosa, in Madagascar, in Dahomey, and then in Timbuctoo, whither he led the remains of the broken column bf Col. Bonnier, after he had put new spirit into the men. WON’T LET OTHERS TACKLE HIS JOB hand declared a strike.
