To Know That He Will Approve Your
Christmas Purchase—Buy It At Muse's
Shopping for personal belongings is nearly always a matter of necessity with a
man. To do it for him in the perfectly satisfactory way is the great certain way of

The great certain place is MUSE’S, where everything a man may wear is shown

Little Toilet Luxuries
Full Dress Appointments
It would be a truly happy thought to
present some good man with a perfectly
new outfit for evening—Full Dress Suit or
Tuxedo, if you like—or maybe a handsome
waistcoat, a modish soft silk shirt or pearl
dress set; ribbon watch cord with gold slide
dress set; ribbon watch cord with gold slide;
evening ties or silk muffler. All of these are
essentials that never grow out of favor
And these may be the silk sox and ties
that come in pretty cases, the leather bag
that will keep) his collars in order, the tie
rack for convenience sake; a box of hand
some initial handkerchiefs, suspenders and
garters that match; gloves, of course.

M ,;es in this city, who are in the pay
General Erniliano Zapata, are keep
ing the Zapata in'surrectos in touch
vPh the movements of the Federal
troops.
General Huerta to-day ordered
General Blanquet. the Minister -of
War, to overhaul his department
th. roughly and arrest all on whom
suspicion might fall.
The rebef bands are increasing in
strength and are enlarging their ac
tivities. Twelve villages and hamlets
have been wiped out in the past 48
hours within 25 miles of this city,
l ift-, non-combatants were killed and
each place was looted before it was
burned.
Federals Kept Divided.
By means of guerrilla tactics the
Zapatistas have kept the Federal
forces divided and by means of
knowledge of troops' movements se
cured through secret channels they
are enabled to ambush the Govern
ment troops in the mountain districts.
Jt is estimated that there are now
MOO Zapatista rebels within the Fed
eral territory which surrounds this
city. As Zapata is said to be co
operating with the northern rebels,
inp indications are that the capital
will fall on the first assault made
upon it.
Ammunition Short.
A grave ammunition shortage faces
the Mexican Government. There are
1.000.000 rounds of cartridges left in
the arsenal owing to the reckless use
of ammunition by the Federals. This
would be insufficient to resist a con
certed attack on the city. No more
ammunition can be secured unless it
is taken from the Vera Cruz arsenal,
which is already short. An ammuni
tion shipment from Europe is not ex
pected for some time. v
Five hundred Federal ''soldiers are
reported to have deserted at Axo-
c ;ipan. near the boVder of the States
of Morelos and Puebla, joining the
Zapatistas.
The Government to-day advertised
the gambling privileges of Federal
district for $50,000 and a share of
the profits. This shows the dire finan
cial straits of Huerta.

CHICAGO, Dec. 19.—Presidents of
railroads to-day hailed the announce

rate increases as assurance of pros

River.
“If the report is true and rates are
to be advanced 5 per cent by the In

said Frederick A. Delano, president of
the Wabash, “it means that not only [
the railroads but business enterprises j
generally will benefit.
“A 5 per cent increase means $40.-

restore the credit of the roads and
permit them to borrow the money
needed for necessary improvements
