THE ROMANCE OF A REGLUSE.
ENGLISH KNIGHT'S WILL REVEALS A
·BECKET.
One of the most pathetically romantic Carara known is recalled by the news that letters of administration have been granted to the British Crown of the estate of Captain George Lindsay Anthony Wilson, who died at Folkestone worth something over £150,000.
The son of Sir John Wilson, who at one time commanded the forces in Ceylon, he anamed to have the world at bis feet. But his brilliant career was cut short by the discio. sure of a dark socrat."
Rich, handsome, and a favourite, he was educated at Cambridge, became a captain, in the Guards, and travelled across the world. He in the best Society, and in his young day often visited Buckingham Palace. In fact, in olf-painting of a dog which Queen Victoria gave to him long hung in the dining room at his Alexandra Gardens' House in Folkestone.
With the death of his father 'came the die closure which altered his whole life. He learnt for the first time that he was illegitimate, and that the beautiful woman who lived with his father, and whom he had always known as his'nunt, was his mother.
The news was a terrible blow, and the favourite of royalty and society cat himself adrift from everybody and sought solace in seclusion..
He threw up his commnisalon in the Guards and, attended only by a few servants, went to live on a small estate at Brentwood, which, with a huge fortune in consols and property, had been left to him by his father. But he made no attempt to keep the place in order: horses and other animals roamed about at will, and the property was rapidly going to rack and ruin Then, people ibinking that his queer conduct amounted almost to mad. ness, communicated with the Lord Chancellor, and presently the rich recluse found, himself in Brentwood Asylum, Hip 'friends, however, exerted themselves to such an extent that his immediate release was ordered,

PIĠMIES OF THE ITURI FORKSTS.
Ever since the days of Herodotus it has bean claimed that a race of dwarfs. Ilved in the in- terior of Africa and this ausertion has given rise to a great deal of truth and sable. Stanley found traces of them, but was hever able to come in touch with the little people; and only recently has this been accomplished. „M. V. Forbin, in La Nature of Paris, describes how Colonel Harrison of England has succeeded not only in meeting dwarfs, but in bringing six of them back to his country. The English explorar last year entered the Ituri forests, sub-

Europe.
The average height of the men is 4 feet 6 inches and of the women a feet 1 inch, but this size is neither an accident nor an abnormality. The dwarfs are a clearly defined race, and form without question a separate branch of the great African family. The two traits which chiefly characterize the little people, other than their small size, are the shape of the nose and of the upper lip. The bridge of the nose is scarcely appreciable, the base is very broad and the wings wide and prominent, while the upper lip is longer and protrudes more than is the case with other negroes. In addition, the chin is short and retreating; the neck.is very short
