Isaac Khan, Persian minister to the
United States, is reputed to be the
handsomest man in the diplomatic
corps. He stands nearly feet, is of
perfect proportions, with a splendid
oval face, just tinted with amber
There is a rudy glow in his cheeks,
his eyes are large and gray-blue, soft
with oriental repose, but speaking in
their intelligence.
The Persian diplomat is popular in
all social circles, and is noted for his
courteous bearing to everyone. He is
the aide-de-camp of the shah, and ac-
companied his sovereign on a tour of
France during the exposition year. His
royal master is said to ne very fono
of him, and has bestowed upon him
many decorations. One is a massive
pearl and diamond pendant inclosing
a portrait of the shah. 1t is worn only
on state occasions, and is suspended
from the neck of the tunic by a string
of pearls.
Isaac Khan is making a close study
of American methods and is deeply in
terested in railroad operations. There
are several lines projected in Persia at
this time, not the least important Of
which is the Russian railway from the
