DRAWF RACES. what Or. Park Thinks cf the Let ter Africans. According to Dr. T, H. Prrke. the genuine pygmy races, whom tve possess relible imformatiuii, are the Bat was, discovered ; n ISB6 by Dr. Dudwig Wolf, occupying ths Sankuru region in the mid- Congo basin; the Mkaka tribe, near Lake Akkaa. of Central Afri ca, with whom Emi i Pashas peo ple would connect the dwarfs of the Central Forest. Os these average height has been respectively reported to be: the Mkaba, 4fe 11 inch • the Batwas, 4 feet 3 inches; and the Akkas, 4 Yet 10 inches. Related to them in shortness of stature are the Bush men of Southern Africa, overag ing about 4 feet 7 inches in height the Andumanlslanders, whose stat ure is under 5 feet : the Javan Ka langs, the Malayan Samangs, and the /Etas of the Philippine Is lands . The Lapps are also notoriously of diminutive stature, so are the Fuegians, the Ailws,and Veddahs, although a little taller. Dr. Park's experiences of the forest dwarfs of Africa during his travels were very varied. [He had many narrow escapes from their archers,and certainly owed his life to one of their woman. He purchased the latter from a slave owner for a handful of beans twelve cupsof rice, and six cups of Indian corn. But of ccurse he did not buy her into but out of slavery. Dr. Parke was obliged to be very marked in his kindness to her at first to prevent her running away; but when she ceased to be afraid of cruelty, her “devotion knew no bounds. Had it not been for her unweary ing attention and care, Dr. Parke would have endured absolute star vation through months of forest life. The first of the forest dwarfs meas ured was exactly 4 feet high. In marked opposition to the giants, dwarfs are very often strong in pro portion to their s ze, ; e 1 ve well pro portioned, and very intelligent. In regard to In ova experience, Dr. Parke says: “The intellectual iferioiity of the dwarf specimens whom I have my self met with was not at all in pro portion to their relative bulk. I would rather try to teach a pygmy than a Nubian any day, and feel cer tain that alter a few months' i’ tima cy I could turn him out as reliable in intelligence and in honesty as his overgrown negro brother.” —Illustra- ted Mission News, A MIRAGE AT BUFFALO Fully 20,000 People Witnessed the Wonderful Phenomenon. The citizens of Buffalo, N. Y , were treated to a remarkable mirage be tween 10 and 11 o’clock on the morn ing of August IG. It was the city of Toronto, with its harbor and small island to the south of the city . To ronto is fifty-six miles Lorn Buffalo, but the church spire i could bo count ed with the greatest ease. The mirage took i n the whole bredth ot Lake Ontario, Charlotte, tbe suburb of Rochester, being rec ognized as a projection east of To ronto. A side wheel steamer could be seen traveling in a line from Char lotte to Toronto Bay. Two dark objects were atlast found to be the steamers of the New York Central plying between Lewiston and Toronto. A sailboat avas also visible and disappeared suddenly. Slowly the mirage began to fade away, to the disappointment of thousand who crowded the roofs houses and office buildings. A bank of clouds was the disappear ance of the mirage. A close examination of the map showed tljat the mirage did not cause the slightest distortion, the gradual rise of the city from the water being r ndered perfectly. It is estimated that at least twenty thousan i spectators saw the novel spectacle. 'llijs mirage is what is known as a mirage of the third order. That is the object looms up far a bove the real level and not invert oil, as is tiie ciise with mirage of the first and second class, but ap pearing like a ])eri'ect landscape far away in the sky.
