othors prosent, which wore mount to be
good-byoe.

Cecil Rhodes' Career.
Cecil John Ithodos, tho English
colonial statesman, whote ambitions
and ability won for him the title of tho
Napoleon of Africa, was born at JISnIi
op's Strotford, Hertfordshire, England,
July 6, 1853, His grandfather was a
well-to-do dairyman in the Islington
suburb of London. His fathor, Nov.
Francis Will'ani Rhodes, was for many
years vicar of St. Michael's church in
tho parish of Bishop's Strotford. Cecil,
the third eon, a weakly youth, received
Ills early education at tho local gram
mar school, one of King Edward VI's
foundation, as did his numerous broth
ers, one of whom died in the heart of
Africa and others did honor to the rolls
of the English army, A term or two
at Oriel college, Oxford, followed, and
then phyt-icians ordered him to tho
Cape.
He landed with moderate means and
took to diumond mining, ultimately
cnntolidutiug all the mining intere-its
and controlling tho diamond mpply of
Africa. 'J he warm Alrican climatohad
made a mountain of energy of a weasly
English youth. Capo politics noon at
tracted him. Ho entered tho colonial
parliament nsa member for ISarkly West
and later took ofilio in tho ministry of
Sir Thomas Scan Ion. On tho fall of
Sir Gordon Hpiiggx' ministry, July 17,
1800, lie became premlei of the colony.
In 181)1 ho visited England, nnd while
thoro donated $50,000 to tho Irish
Homo Hole fund. In September, lHD.'l,
ho took (ho field against Lnlnmguoln,
tho warlike king of Miitnbelehind,
with u Hying squadron of (100 trooper?.
When tho Anglo-Hoar war broke out,
Mr. Ithodos was at Kimberley, whore
ho romaltiud during tho siege, placing
hlnifulf at tho head of a regiment of
guards that ho organized nnd main
tained. On the relief of tho city, ho
hurried to London and mot Mr. Cham
berlain, but the subject or result of the
conference was never announced His
health being bad, ho returned recently
to the Capo in tho hope that the South
African air would benefit him, but his
condition steadily grew worso.
