(Continued from Page One.)
Greek Persisted in Strangling
When Falls Were Even and
k Was Disqualified.
Fritz Hanson was awarded last
nieht's match with jpnn; Kelonis art
Sumter, S. C, after each bad won a
fall, the referee disqualifying the
Greek when he persisted in attempting
to use a strangle hold on the Wilming
ton .wrestler. Hanson did not know
the identity of his antagonist when he
left for Sumter, but after reaching that
city was informed that Kelonls was
the man he was to meet.
According to information received
here today, Kelonis won the initial fall
of the evening in 35 ' minutes with
double arm lock, and Hanson took the
second in 20 minutes, the Swede using
a head scissors and ankle grip. The
third fall went over 20 minutes before
the Greek was disqualified and only
then after, he had been warned re
peatedly by the refeyee. Information
is that Kelonis appeared to be running
on his last leg and preferred to lose
by a foul rather than be defeated.

Marshal; Joffre is the only man in
France since the close of the Franco
Prussian war in '1870, who has been
authorized to bear the illustrious title
of Marshal of France, and this dis
tinction Was conferred on him by " un
animous action of the1 French ' Cham
ber in recognition of his splendid serv
ices as military leader. Joffre . was
commander-in-chief of the French
army at" the beginning of the war and
remained in the position until. Decem
ber last, when he gave place to Gen
eral Nivelle, to become marshal and
military adviser of the "government. In
responding again to the call of active
duty, his services are placed at the
disposal of the American people whom
he comes" to advise in the best way of
organizing, disciplining, equipping and
perhaps transporting to Europe the
greatest army which the country has
ever called into being. 1
The marshal was born in 1852 at
Rivesaltes In the Pyrenees of France
in the middle station of life. At 17
he became a student in the great
French school, the Ecole Polytech
nique The Franco-Prussian . war In
1870 found him a sub-lieutenant In
the artillery defending the Paris fort.
After the war he devoted some time
to engineering works and these carried
him into Indp-China, Tohquin, For
mosa and Africa. In the Timbuctoo
he led a charge which gained him a
lieutenant-colonelcy and the legion of
honor distinction. His thorough mas
tery of military science brought him
rapid promotion and in 1911 he was;
vice president of the Superior war
council, chief of the general staff and
practically head of the army. In that
capacity, he pushed the 1913 law for
three years' military service, which
is now conceded to have been the sal
vation of France.

the devices which have proven to be
of notable service in trapping these
underwater craft are believed to have
been originated by him. He is the
one man above all others in the French
navy whom the American navy general
board is anxious to consult on the de
struction of German submarines.
Americans hold in high esteem Mar-
iquis de ChamDrun, a member ot tne
Chamber of Deputies, because he is a
grandson of LaFayette. He was born
in Paris, June 11, 1865, and after study
ing law, he entered politics and was
in 1898 elected deputy. He centered
his interests on foreign affairs and has
become, a' notable authority in that
line. He is a son of the Marquis de
Chambrun, who was legar adviser
many years of the French legation in
Washington. The marquis spent his
youth here and married Miss Rives

interests of French citizens there.
M. Hovelacque, inspector-general of

highest French university and is a
great admirer of American institutions'
particularly the public school system.
Surgeon Major Dreyfus is not the
famous Major Dreyfus whose; case
nearly disrupted the French army a
decade ago. He was a private prac
ticing physician at the beginning of
the war, when called into military serv

of General Joffre, whom he has accom
panied on every trip.
