“In appearance French is hardly an

ideal cavalry ofhcer. There is little of the ‘beau sabreur` about him. He is short and thick, and of rather ungainly figure. Although he can stick on a horse as well as any one, rides’ with a strong seat, and is indefatigable in the saddle, he is not at all a pretty horseman. His mind is more set on essentials, on effective leadership with all it means, rather than on what soldiers call ‘spit and 'polish,’ the external ‘ appearance and not t-he true inwardness of things.

“His mental caliber is undoubted`y

high; he is _sound in judgment, clear~ headed, patient, taking everything quietil ly,the rough with the smooth; but he is

A very readable character shetch of Ce:-,il Rhodes appears in Ainslees, written by Allen a correspondent recently returnedfrom South Africa. He says, in part:

“In the land that bears his name, Cecil

Rhodes receives the homage of a monarch. I-Ie stands for the country`s~risc or fall. He is praised for conipletinga railroad and blamed for a continued drought. Among white men he is a subject of hero worship. To black men he represents the whole Anglo-Saxon race. They call him 'Separator of Bulls.’ ‘Son of the Great- _\\'liite Qneen,` and ‘the man who eats a country for his brcakfast.` To them he is Destiny itself. "The first thing you notice about Mr. Rhodes is an absence of affection. He re-

ieigri minister. In voice, manner and con- _diictlie is ever the same. Nothing is
