Hlarh chairs for dolls come in largre sizes verj r nearly large enough for a real baby, and dolly sitting in one of them would be almost as Jhigh as her little mistress if she were taken to the family dining table. The very smartest things are to be found in doll's mackintoshes. They are to be had in red, blue and tan, made in raglan shape, with a pocket on the outside, and they are quite the most attractive things 1n the lady doll's wardrobe. Long coats for dolls come in the empire styles, a yoke and a broad, panel-like front, tfhe re3t of the coat In long broad plaits, very smart Indeed. These are just the things for the doll to wear over her evening gowns when she is going to receptions. They are to be? found in different stylish shades of brown end tan. They have, of course, velvet collars, which "re very smart. Box coats for the doll come in different col ors, and are trimmed with large pearl buttons of white, and have velvet collars, cuffs and pocket flaps. A little red box coat is one of the. nicest little garments which can 'be found In the cold weather. There are more dressy coats also; box coats which come in velvet. They cost a trifle more, and some little mama* prefer the cloth coats as being the smartest. Chatelaine bags are the most business-like things in the doll's wardrobe. They are of leather, metal trimmed, and have a metal chain and hook to fasten them to the belt or top of the skirt. Chatelaine watches are used by many dolls without regard to the fact that a watch worn in this way will not keep as good time as others. Nice little velvet hoois are trimmed with white ruffles of fluffy white stuff. So are little—no, they are quite large—chif fon bats, shirred, and with big rosettes of a ribbon of a fancy weave at the side. REFORM IN TAXATION MIM tioßsrin mid Miss Haley Speak In Slonx City. Special to The Journal. Sioux City, lowa, Dec. 20.—'Miss Catherine Goggin and Miss Margaret Haley, leaders of the Chicago Teachers' Federation in its suc cessful fight for taxation of Chicago corpora tions, spoke in Sioux City last night to a large audience. The teachers announced they would take uj> a campaign against Illinois railroads. "There is law enough in Illinois, and the supreme court has sustained it." said Miss Haley. "For tweuty-three years no railroad in Illinois has been assessed on the value of its franchises; yet in 1874, when the law was properly administered, they were assessed $31,000,00 on the franchise values, aside from their tangible property. To-day it should be immensely more. It would bring their actual value assessment up to $98,000 per mile, in stead of $40,000 as now." A meeting will be arranged for Dcs Moines after the legislature sits, that the two teach ers may assist the movement for more equit able taxation of railroads in lowa.

INSCRIPTION PUZZLES SAVANTS Half Obliterated Characters Thought at First to Be Aztec—The Filial Solution. A discovery of rare scientific value "was made this morning by laborers employed at Hennepin avenue and Tenth street, in the fourth ward. The men, while at work, found a peculiar piece of metal, closely re sembling tin, on which was an inscription, almost obliterated by time. » Swan Olson, the original discoverer, did not realize the value of his find, at first; but passed it carelessly by until a pedestrian noticed the thing and advised the foreman "'in. charge of the work to preserve it. . _ Then a friend of Librarian J. K. Hos mer happened along. He gazed curiously at the relic until a peculiar twist of the inscription caught his eye. Then he turned and rushed across the street and into the Library building. A moment later he reappeared, accompanied by Dr. Hosmer. The doctor examined the inscription closely; and when informed that it had been found in that locality, seemed very much surprised). "Can you make it out, doctor?" queried his friend. "Looks like Aztec," replied the doctor, excitedly; "but I can't understand how the thing came her. "Similar inscriptions have been found in Yucatan, where the Montezumas came from. I'll just take this over to my office, where we can ex amine it thoroughly." "No, you don't," replied the foreman in charge. "If that is worth anything it goes to the city hall. Just leave it alone, will you?" "But my good man," expostulated the doctor. "Say, let up on that, will you I.' Go chase yourself. That ain't nothin' but a piece of old tin; but it goes down to the city hall, see?" The doctor saw. He returned to the library and called, up the archeology de partment of the state university. When he got an answer he told of the discovery that had been made, and an expert on Aztec writings was soon on his way across the river. Then the doctor telephoned to the mayor; and he, too, hurried to the scene of action. ' * Wise Men Puzzled. When the university savant arrived he brought .with him a delegation of students. The mayor was accompanied by his body guard and by Thomas Brown, his honor's private secretary, who has dabbled in archeology himself, and) who knows the difference between Aztec and a hand saw. All of them crowded around the little piece of metal and gazed at it intently. "What do you make of it, professor?" queried Doctor Hosmer. "I scarcely believe it's Aztec," replied the celebrated savant. "It may have been left behind by even an earlier peo ple; possibly by the mound builders. They have a similar curiousity in the Smithso nan Institute in Washington; and its origin has never been definitely deter mined. The mayor said he had never seen any thing like it in all his experience; and Secretary Brown added that no license had been issued for the erection of any such inscription during his administra tion. The university man took a rule from his pocket and carefully measured the figures. "You see," he said to Dr. Hos mer, "this peculiar line down the middle, here; almost like our letter "n" has no counterpart in the Axtec writings. What a find this is for our university! It will attract attention all over the scientific world. No one looking at it can doubt its genuineness. ; Its .great age is too obvious; and could never have been coun terfeited. Finally Secretary Brown had an idea. "I think I know someone who may be able to help us out on this," he said. Then he called a hack and drove off, down town. Easy When You Know. About an hour later he reappeared ac companied by a. young lady whom he in troduced as Miss Dottie Lingerie of the comic opera chorus. Miss Lingerie looked at the inscription delightedly. ' "Why," she said, "I haven't seen one of those in Minneapolis since I first went on the stage. It must be the only one left in town;" and she beamed as though she had discovered a long lost friend. "What it it?" demanded Dr. Hosmer. . "Why, don't you know?" with affected surprise. "That was put up here ages ago. It was when Eugene Wilson was mayor. I use to live here then.
