OF SMALLEST DOLLS
Isabel Belaunsaran Designs and Con-

CALLED QUEEN OF THE NEEDLE

This is The story Of Isabel Belaun-
saran, maker of the smallest dolls in the
world, who is the quaintest figure in
Mexico's quaintest town, Cuernavacs, as
told by Russell Hastings Millward in
q communication to the National Geo
graphic Society.
= This little girl is called Queen Of the
Needle" writes Millwari. THE natives
Of the village will tell you that no clev-
srer Mexican Indian maiden has ever
been known. The diminutive dolls she
makes, both in point of construction and
design, are the most remarkable in the
world. ..
"The operation Of making consists in
forming a tiny framework Of wire bare
ly three-fourts of an inch in length and
winding II with many turns Of silk
thread. After the frame has been prop
erly formed. it is ready for dressing. The
clothing is cut according to the char
acter of the doll and fitted carefully
about the small figure. The most dill
cult work, that OF embroidering, is then
begun. With a needle that can scarcely
be held in the fingers and the finest of
keilk threads, various designs are actual
ly embroidered on the clothing. and SO

through a. powerful magnifying glass the
details of the design appear to be per-

necessary to add the lair, and what is
undoubtedly an example of the tiniest
and most marvellous hair dressing
known is then performed on each doll.

be placed on sale in, the village sfop.

ator Norris, of Nebraska. calling on the
Attorney General for information as to
whether the New York Central and Hud-
son River Railroad had been operating
in violation Of the Sherman ANTITRUST
law as q result Of its acquisition OF other
lines of railroad
Senator Norris produced correspondents
10 show that he had brought the New
York Central situation to the attention
of the Attorney Geperal more than
year ago. and that officer intimated that
his department was investigating the
whole general subject Of unlawful rail-
way combinations
Senator Weeks asked Mr.. Norris why
he could not broaden his resolution 10
include other railroad systems OF the
country, such as the Southern. Louis
VILE and Nashville. Chicago. Milwaukee
and St Paul, and others, all OF wnlcn
had acquired other railroad properties
since the passage OF the Sherman Law.
The senator from Nebraska replied that
some Senators were objecting because
his resolution was not dennite enough
and specific in its charges ana susees,ed
that II Mr.. Weeks desired TO proaoen
the inquiry, there was nothing TO pre-
vent him from introducing a resolution
to that effect.
The resolution went over without
prejudice" at the request OF Senator
Norris, and will come up again Mon
day.
