Dolls OF All Ages
Brussels Cable to the Chicago Inter
Onaan

Brussels Cable to the Chicago Inter
Ocean.
Princess Clementine Of Belgium,
King Leopold's youngest and only
maiden daughter, owns remarkable
collection Of dolls, whieh was lately
put on exhibition here for the benefit
Of the Calvary guild for poor tubercu-
loss patients In Brussels. 1t is said
to be the most extensive collection OF
this kind in the world, containing
every imaginable kind of doll, ancient
and modern.
The oldest dolls in the collection
were found in theauins of Babylon and
presented to Queen Louise Of Belgium,
Princess Clementines grandmother.
These dolls are small terra Gotta
figures and worries, beautifully carved.
which must have been most fascinat-
ing for the children of Babylon.
Next in point of antiquity are Ro-
man dolls, of which Princess Clemen.
tine owns three varieties dolls of ivory
wax and clay The Roman clay dolls
with jointed arms and legs. are among
the oldest ana most valuable in the
collection There are several Greek
dolls. Though less ancient than the
Roman dolls, they are more valuable
as the number in existence is very linn
tied, and the Princess Clemeetine has
some of the finest specimens. The
Greek dolls represent gods, heroes, and
common mortals. There is one kind
W it'll flexible limbs whose clothes were
made to take off and put on and every
doll had bed of is OWN. There is
likewise doll house, with lead dishes
and tiny kitchen utensils, which would
seem to show that the Greek maidens
were, in this respect, as advanced
as are their sisters to-day.
There are some queer dolls from
Greenland which were cut out of bon es
and mammoth teeth and dressed in
soft tanned skins. They were presented
to Princess Clementine by the Duke of
Orleans, who brought them back from
his latest arctic expedition. Anot her
I. re specimen is the Fosti doll from
Assam, British India. 1t is made
of stiff paper and cardboard,
painted red to represent an old man
holding a fan, and is supposed to por
tray one addicted to opium eating.
Still another novel specimen is one
of the first dolls taken into Frrnce dur
ing the reign of Charles vi by an
Italian from Padua named Pusmo.The
dolls PusIno took to the French court
were images of famous expresses and
ether celebrated women of the old Ro-
man mplre, carved after statutes and
coins. King Charles sent for PuEmo
to amuse him and was so gravity taken
with the statuette of Poppea, whom
Nero is said to have killed with kich
that he bought it. AS the King called
this doll Poppea, the courtiers did the
same, and thu. was derived the French
word for doll, "poupee' It is the origi-
nal Poppea which figures in Princess
Clemeatine's collection.

where Lies The Blame

Mr.. Bryan and his government
ownership scheme get another i'm
portant boost through the lack of duty
of the administration officials of the
great state OF Illinois. Their negi-
genoe to enforce the law and guard her
interests is the subject of general COM
ment. What are the facts? Harrlmsn's
financial jugglery Of the stock Of the
Chicago 4 Alton, an Illinois cor
poration, was gross violation OF the
constitution of that state. Did the
governor or attorney general Of Hi
nois make the slightest attempt to
stop or prevent Harriman's swindling
operations? Not a bit of it. SO far as
their guardianship Of the peoples in.
terests were concerned these officials
might have been doing business in
Congo Land. Hartman and his lieu
tenants were as free TO defy the law
and swindle the public as were the
governor and his attorney general to
look at the clock, dine Mt the proper
hour and pick their teeth complaeent-
ly under the belief that all was well
1t is this incompetence of state Off.
Gals and neglect of state Legislature to
do their duty that is burning the minds
of people from their allegiance to their
state. Seeing no redress at home for
their grievances and wrongs they seek
for help from the federal government
If state governments are "weighed 10
in the balance and found wanting
it not natural that relief be sough
elsew here? The interests of the ctL
zens of the state are subordinated to
political ambitions; powerful corpora (
lions WELD sufficient influence to both
prevent snd direct legislation and con-
troll completely the states executive
officers. West Virginia's Legislature
just adjourned is an exemplilicatlon Z
of being under the complete influence
Of the railroads, Standard OIL and Othsr
powerful interests. How are people
going 10 pseserve their respect and 3
fealty to state government when q
proves itself inadequate to do its duty
The Register regrets to note that
this weaving process is so rife, becau"
it bodies no good for the integrity and
preservation of the states as such. Aud
what is as patent as that water runs
down hill, the situation must become
worse unless it is within the power Of E
the citizen himself to esehew purtisan' 81
ship and elect men to Offices OF trua E
and importance on their merits, All
the law and the prophets hang on ths
one axiom.-W heeling Register.

The Greenbrier county grand jury, OF
Judge w. r. Benefits court has found
an indictment against Hon. A. S.
Johnson, editor of the Monroe Watch
man, growing out of an editorial in
the Waterman, some time ago, criti-
cising the finding Of the court in a
criminal case tried in Lewisburg some
months ago. We did not see that arti-
Gle in question and know nothing
about the NJ erits of the matter, but we
know sgd Johnson and while he is q
plain, outspoken man, he is a gentle
man of the real type and we are loathe
to believe that he is guilty of libelIng
any body. Again, we do not believe a
court can gain any public confidence
by indicting newspaper men who crit
icccasi deision it renders.
