WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON, MAY 3lsT, 1897.
When the head Of foreign nation
objects to receiving the man nominated
bv the President and confirmed by the
Senate to represent the U. S. as ambas
sador or minister to that nation he is
merely exercising prerogative that is
recognized by all nations, and the min.
lister has nothing left but to resign.
Although it is denied at the State De
partment that any official notice Of OBJ.
lection has been received by this gov
eminent from Turkey, it looks as
though Hon. Jas. B. Angel, late Pres.
ident of the University of Michigan,
would be victim Of the persona non
grata hoodoo. 1t is admitted by off.
Gals that they have knowledge of an
attempt to poison the mind Of the Sui
tan against Mr.. Angel On account of
his prominence as an advocate of the
Christian religion, but they say that
statements have been made which will
satisfy the Sultan and that Mr.. Angel
will, within two weeks, start for Tur.
KEY. He may, but the impression in
Washington is, that he will not.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure Deaf

famed condition Of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infamed you have a rumb
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
che result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
t. its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused bv catarrh, which is nothing
but an inAamed condition Of the mu-
cous surfaces.

everybody is waiting to see what Pres

report. Everybody connected with the

down has grown reticent on this sub

The Senate is making fair rate of

paragraphs. Everything has go far

feared when the wool and sugar sched-

tee solidly, and upon nearly every par
agraph they have had votes from pop.
ullsts and upon several from democrats,
and in nearly every one yet passed
upon the duties have been raised. If
the talk Of republican Senators can be
depended upon, the increased beer tax
and the duty upon tea will both go, and
their places be taken in the bill by an
internal revenue stamp tax upon bank

900. It was the fashion to call him
the richest man in the world. At that
time he was virtually the king of the
London money market. In the autumn
of 1895, when the boom in the Kafirs,
the shares Of the comparatively new
gold mines of the T%ransvaal, South
Africa, was at it's height, every man,
woman and child in London with mon
ey to invest invested it in "Kafirs.'
The center of the tremendous financial
outburst was Barney Barnato, and he
was c~onservatively estimated at the
time as worth between 500, GOO, 900 and
$3.50, 0O0, 900. Among his assets was a
bank originally capitalized at S12, $780,
900. In q very few months it's capital
stock rose in value to $45, 900 eco.
Barnato was born in London. little
is known as to his early life, except
that he received his instruction from
a private tutor, instead Of attending
the public schools. He was a younger
son and at the age of 20 went to South
Africa, then a much more savage ter
ritory than it is now and scantily pop
ulated by Englishmen or persons OF
English descent. to seek his fortune.
The Kimberley diamond mines were
just beginning to be productive. With,
his few pounds of capital he began
dealing in diamonds in a small way.
He was clever and pushing. Every
thing he touched he made successful.
In five years he had earned enough in
the retail sale of diamonds to purchase
shares in the mines from which his
merchandise had come. Before anoth-
er five years had elapsed his holdings
at Kimberley had become very large,
aid when the Transvaal gold fields
were discovered he had profits to in
vest in them. In 1886 Barnato was a
definite money power in South Africa.
and began to be spoken of as the rival

ment n even more unlike in personal
ambition, the two men started in to be

their respective interests could be hest.

De Beers Consolidated Mines were the
result, n of the most valuable pieces
OF property of the kind in the world.
While in Africa he married and had
three children, two sons and a daugh-
ter. He always had, or professed to
have. boundless faith in the future of
the Transvaa., and his personal popu-
larity among all classes Of Afrikanders
was very great.
