The adjective, as in "What a kind young man that was" means helpful, generous, understanding, sympathetic. In some places it apparently can also suggest politeness, possibly by extension.

The noun, as in "What kind of young man was that?" means type, class or subdivision. "He was the kind of young man who is more likely to put five bucks into your pocket than take it out." "Ah, a kind young man."
