Hon. Timothy Guy Phelps, Collector of
Customs, to answer charge of being a sub
ject Of Kwangsu, the Emperor of China,
illegally soj0urning In the United States and
contrary to its peace and dignity.
The little brown woman was brought
here, it is belived. for purposes not TO be
discussed in public print. Quite a strife

rescueTs that she wanted to go back to her
parents in kiungchow. The Gu inese men

to give bonds for her release from The NOM

her liberty by the mission people. The only
way to prevent her from falling in to their
hands was 10 arrest her upon another
charge. which explains the action OF the au-

II is TN open secret that Santa Claus
brings the greater part OF his vast stock
OF Christmas toys from the continent
w hen he desires an expensive mcchan-
zeal toy, however, he goes 20 France for
1t; to S;iXony for his Nouh's ark and all
the other carved wooden toys; to Nu-
rcinburg for his toy tin trunpcts and
magic lanterns, and to Thuringia for
his toy China tea sets.
Far more important than all other
toys are the dolls, and nine dolls out of
ten arc little German girls In whole dis
tricts of Germany the country people
spend the winter in making dolls, tillinr
their fields i'll summer. The cheap wax
doll, commercially known rs Compost
ton wax" such as may be bought ut
retail for fifty cents, furnishes perhaps
the best idea of how dolls are made. A
"modclcr" who has nothing further to
do with the making of dolls makes
plaster of Paris models of the styles of
heads and limbs most in demand, and
sells them, singly or in sets, to the
peasants who make the dolls. There
arc all sorts of faces among the models
pretty girls, smiling boys, old women,
negroes and crying babies. Throughout
the winter, father, mother and all the
larger children unite in making papicr-
4 machc Gusts from these models, each
cast being, of course, an exact counter
part of the models. but thin and light
and gray in color.
The legs and arms are dipped in
flesh-colored paint, and the painted
shoes are put on with brushes. These

When she is sufficiently dry she passes
into the hands of u girl operator, who
quickly paints the pink tingc upon her

while the paints are drying. In six
hours six girls are expected to paint
nearly 1,5oo dolls complete. This re-
quires rapid work, and the girls re-
ceive about S1.50 week each. Flowing
locks of mohair are fastened to the head
and dolly is ready to emigrate
For the real wax doll, a more expensive
article, the molds for the head are made
in three parts-onc back and two fronts
The mold is filed with melted wax,
which is allowed to remain for min
ute or two, and then all that has not
hardened is poured out. This leaves a
hollow wax head about Il quarter of an
inch thick, which is afterwards strength
ened by backing with quarter of an
inch of papicr-lnache. Some patent
washable dolls are made OF hardened
papier-mache, and, when these have
cloth feet, which will not break, they
are valuable addition to the nursery
The most desirable doll in the mar
kct, however, according to an expert
German toy manufacturer now in this
country. is the ''lid body doll" The
kid bodies are stuffed with hair and
finished with bisque heads. Occasion
ally sawdust is substituted for the hair
