III YOU want the best doll to
make the child happy.
lit is here.

Our selection of undressed dolls Is the
largest and best this side of New York
city.
Our dolls are our own importations our
buyer visiting the market and personally
selecting all the dolls ordered.
His endeavor is to choose those dolls
which are not only large and well made,
but also those with the most beautiful
faces and sweetest expressions, and this
is his hobby-to buy dolls that are each
year more and more perfect reproductions
of the beautiful children of the world,
childlike and lovable in appearance, per-
feet in workmanship. and the largest that
can be bought without sacrificing this
beauty and quality Only one who has
had experience, and who is also a lover of
little children can make such selections.
1t is this happy combination that our
buyer possesses in a high degree.
Another proof of the superiority is that we
buy only the best makes, such as the
Santa dolls-the Kestner dolls-the Hand
werck doll and our own 24-inch VIOLA
DOLL at s1.OO. that has become quite IA
nous in the doll world.

The Growth of the Telephone.

"Hello, Central!" was first heard in
1873. Today the exchanges are num-
bered by the thousand, the telephones
by the million, Various industries,
unknown thirty years ago, but now
sources Of employment to many thou
the telephone for support, Numerous
factories making lead sheathing, dyna,
mos, motors, generators, batteries, Office
equipments, cables, and many other
appliances, would have to close down
and thus throw their operatives into
idleness and misery If the telephone bell
should cease TO ring. The Bell com
panies employ over $1,000 persons and,
it may be added, pay them well, Many
maintain; others support their parents,
or aid younger brothers and sisters. 1T
is safe to say that 100000 people look
to the telephone for their daily bread.
These figures may be supplemented by
the number of telephones in use $685.
000), by the number Of miles of wire
(6,043, ,0o0) in the Bell lines, and bv the
number Of conversations (4,479, 800
000) electrically conveyed in 1905,
The network of wires connects more
than $4,000 cities, towns, villages and
hamlets,
Such tremendous growth as these
statistics show would imply not only q
steadily increasing appreciation of the
telephone, but would also suggest i'm
proved instruments, more skillful oper
ators, and better service, There would
be no flattery in such suggestion,
Electrical science has undergone radical
reformation since 1876. Telephony has
raised the utilization Of electricity to
the height of profession. OF course,
such advances have not been won with
out cost. Fortunes were spent in ex
pertinent and investigation before a
dollar came back. Communication by
the first telephone was limited to few
thousand feet Now, conversation can
be carried on by persons 1900 miles
apart. Tomorrow long distance lines
Will span the continent; and the day
after oceanic telephony will be com
monplace of mercantile routine. But
science and money had to collaborate
for years before they could work the
miracle of enabling Boston and Omaha
to talk together.-John Vaughn in

GREAT DEVELOPMENT
OF AFRICAN MINING
Heart of Dark Continent Prom
ises to Lead in Copper and
Zinc Production.
Special to the Tribune.


WASHINGTON, Sept. o-Away up In
the heart of Central Africa some mar
relous developments are taking place IN
the mining way, especially in the line of
zinc, lead and copper. Consul General
Washington Of Cape Town reports on
them and says he has fully verified all he
says In regard thereto The Cape to
Cairo railroad is now $50 miles north of
the Kafue river. branch OF the Fam
besi. the northern terminus being a place
called Broken Hill The country north
OF the Kafue is plateau 1000 feet above
the ocean and at this time OF the year IT
hns a cool and bracing climate. ice an
inch thick forming on the pools at night.
Broken Hill is near the scene of the
mining activity, and the lead and zinc
mines are to be found in a number Of
kopjes or hills rising above the surround
ing plain, and 10 get at the ore all that
Is necessary is TO quarry II out as II It
were 30 much rock. The zinc mines give
so TO 60 per cent OF zinc and that metal
can be produced there for $6S per ton,
delivered In England. whereas the price
at the British markets now Is from S131
TO $1SS per ton. The lead ore Will be
turned into pig at the mines and can be
turned out at a profit OF S34 per ton at
the present prices The mines OF Broken
Hill are expected to furnish the railroad
with sbSi0 worth OF freight a day, which
is more by 40 per cent than It costs TO
operate that division OF the line.
The railroad has been surveyed to
Bwana M'Kuba, 100 miles farther north
and Il Will be pushed through to that
point as fast as It can done, as at
the latter place there are copper de-
dosits Of promising character. The old
workings by the natives go down 100 feet
and extend laterly $500 feet The ore
body is IL to 10 feet thick and has been
proved to a depth of $50 feet, the copper
averaging is per cent. A feature Of the
mines Is the malachite caves. going down
in some cases 60 feet through pure NAL
achite, and the malachite contains no
less than 35 per cent of pure copper. All
these operations as we'll as the railroad,
are TO be operated with coal found In
inexhaustible quantities in the mines at
Wankies, fifty miles south OF the zam-
besI river. The influx OF people Into the
country is described as resembling the
march OF an army, and il is predicted
that IN a short time the entire section
for 400 miles north OF the Zambes will
be thickIy settled by miners and farmers.
as the country Is said to be temperate
and adapted to all kinds OF agriculture

directors of Philadelphia Real
Estate Trust Company Agree
to Receivers Plan.
THREE MILLION LOSS
WILL BE MADE GOOD
loans of Five Million by Nipple
to Segal Worth Only
Two Million.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept All OF the
directors of the wrecked Real Estate
Trust company have agreed to Receiver
Earles' plan for reorganizing the COM
pany. Today Mr. Earle received a telegram
from DR.. S, Weir Mitchell. the only mem
Der OF the board of directors who is away
from the city, agreeing to the PROPOSE
tlon that the directors contribute the
amount deemed necessary by the recelv-
er. Mr.. Mitchell expresses his willing
ness TO bear his portion of the burden.
The other directors had previously as
sented to the plan.
Receiver Earle spent today nt his home
at Bryn Mawr working on tho details OF
his proposition, which he hopes to be
able to present TO the directors tomor-
row. He also expects to call general
meeting Of stockholders and deposltors In
order to thoroughly acquaint them with
his purpose.
The loans made to Segal by President
Hipple aggregating moro than S6,O0O.O0o,
and his securities are believed TO be
worth about 81 900 900. Consequently the
directors will subscribe more than S3,
1000.
A statement made tonight by Rev.
DR.. Roberts, stated clerk of the General
Assembly of the Presbyterian church. an
nounces that in addition to the 100000 of
the trust funds of the trustees OF the
OF the Trust company, the deposits.
amounting to about $4,000. are also in
volved These deposits were the current
funds of the board OF ministerial relief,
the trustees of the Board OF Publication
and Sabbath School work, the trustees OF
the General Assembly. the stated clerk
OF the General Assembly and the Wom-
ems Foreign Missionary society.
Another Suspicious Note.
A note that is regarded with suspicion
by District Attorney Bell and Receiver
Earle has been found among the papers
of the wrecked Real Estate Trust COM
pany. 1t is for $1,000. and bears the
signature of Joseph A. Baker, who has
been dead three years. The loan is Sc
cured by $4,000 in first preferred elk per
cent bonds of the Champion Iron and
Separator company, one OF Adolf Segafs
many enterprises.
Baker, whose name is signed to the
note. was in the real estate business at
the same time that Segal was conducting
brokerage business. The two were
close friends. Members OF Bakers fam
lily said they were unaware that he had
ever given President Nipple his note for
any amount In fact, they did not believe
Baker was acquainted with Nipple. In
view Of the fact that similar notes for
large amounts secured by worthless coll
lateral and signed apparently by hcti-
tious persons, Mr.. Bell and Receiver
Earle express the fear that this note may
be another evidence OF Hipples wildcat

Wright of Carberry, Manitoba. During the
winter OF 1855 he was shantying at Stur-

some companions strolled out on the Ice
of the lake TO look at the logs there.
They heard the hunting cry OF wolves,
then a deer "a female) darted from the
woods to the open Ice. Her sides were
heaving, her tongue out and her legs
cut from the slight crust on the snow.
Evidently she was hard pressed and had
been running for some time. She was
coming toward them, but one Of the men
gave a shout which caused her to sheer
