UNEARTH FORTUNE IN ART
Windsor Castle in England Yields COL
lection Of Antiques Valued at
Fully 81 ,25o,OOO.

Heterogeneous of the state apart
ments at Windsor Castle, England, IN
anticipation of the forthcoming visit
of the king and queen of Portugal has
brought to light collection OF price
less treasures, the existence of which,
or at least their startling value, has
been entirely overlooked.
When the attention of the king was
called to ''some mementos collected by
your august mother" he had an ex-
pert enter the castle and look over the
collection.
At the end of an hour, after the ex-
pert had examined the contents of a
single cabinet, he sent word to his
majesty that he would pay 100000 for
the contents of that cabinet alone.
Then more searching investigation
was instituted, which resulted among
other things in the amazing revelation
that the collection was one that had
been made by King George Ill, and
that the rarest articles it contained
had been gathered by that monarch's
favorite cook, Laurens by name. The
collection had been entirely forgotten.
This man Laurens, while chef by
profession, was one of the best in
formed and most expert authorities on
art matters in the period of the third
| George. 1t appears that he was only
nominally a cook, his master using
| him chiefly as an agent to attend the
| important art sales in England and on
the continent, at almost every one of
which he picked up, frequently at mod
est prices, art treasures that are now
invaluable.
A most important feature of the eco
nomical kings plan was that, buying
in his own name, Laurens concealed
the fact that he was seeking treasures
for royal master, and thereby saved
thousands of pounds on his purchases.
1t is said that these treasures, which
are now properly displayed for the first
time in a century, have no equal in
any other royal castle or palace in
Europe. They comprise pictures,
china, plate, rare old clocks and ar
ticles Of vertu, miniature, old armor
and odds and ends that mount up in
value to considerably over $1,250,000.
At the direction of the king they
have now been arranged to advantage
at Windsor Castle.
