AT SHORT RANGE.
Albert Belt, the man who spent Christ
mas as the richest man in tue world,
is a good-looking fellow of middle-age.
He might be called handsome ii his eX-
preston were little more cheerful, and
he might be called u stylish man If he were
dressed as other men are.
Belt is the most sensible of all the African
kings. He is close friend of Barnato and
very near to Rhodes. He goes in higher
society than the former and in more general
society than the latter. Barnato still in-
sjsts upon liking his old chums OF early
days, the acrobatic performers and the
tIght-rope gentlemen. He will not turn
them from his door. There is place for
them at his table, even at his Christmas
spread, for he is to dine 100 OF them on
Christmas Day In his great spreading din
ing-room, one corner of which is large
enough for his whole family circle.
Belt has kept no poor friends from his
humble beginning. If he has any, he
has either forgotten them or, as his friends
declare, has pensioned them off. And that
is why there is nothing tostandin Belts way
IN his march into London society.
Albert Belt lives in very good style
in London. He generaly-for he is only
q visitor to the capital-occupies bach
lor chambers in Trafalgar Square, the
most expensive part of the town. and
his dinners are taken at the tables of
lords and dukes, OF counts and earls,
yes, and at the board of princes.
Belts friends in London are the Duke
of Fife and the Prince of Wales. An
other close oiIum is Prince Adolphus
of Teck who has put the Duke of West
minister's gift into the African hot-bed of
gold pounds. Belt is q companion also OF
Lord Rosebery. who dabbles in Kaffirs,
and he knows well everybody of im-
