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 pleasing. The great certain place is MUSE’S, where everything a man may wear is shown in the good form and the good quality that can’t miss his approval. 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.

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.
