MEXICANS SHOW BUT LITTLE FEELING AT EMBARGO'S REMOVA L Natives of Mexico City Do Characteristic Thing1 in Do ing Unexpected,? flnllMl Vmm ij-nwA W'lrfi.) MptJc i City. ;i, si. The Mexicans in the c-t-ltal look lrfetleri Vilson'tt 'l of Mixing- '4ht; fitiM'so In th'.-lr rtiHrarterUtlc way. .That Jm. thay dli,n't d wht liiey were expected to do. While the new came as a bonib hell to the Kovtranient oftlclals, the public seemed to be In no way excited by the fact that Washington had. In a manner of speaking-, decided to give as sistance to Carransa and the rebels all the war munitions they could use. Truwt the Mexicans to do the unex. pected thing-," sa,y American oldtlmers here. And, In tils instance, the Mex icans followed the rule. Americans really expected them to do omethlng; , to riot or Insult Americans on the streets. On the. evening; of the day that the news reached the capital the American club was aerted; Ameri cans were sticking- to" their homes. But the evening passed without-event, and the next day, though the newspapers, under big headlines, scored the Ameri cans and Frealdemt Wilson, Americans wh ventured on the streets saw no in dication of 111 feeling; Then th word went around among the Americans In the colony that the Mexican people In the capital were mostly In favor of Carranza,. and that, Instead of blaming Americans for ald- . Ing the rebels, they were delighted with President Wilson's assistance. Within a few days tt became appar ent to American that this was true: the average Mexican man on the street or In the store showed no resentment, Ttut only pleasure- that Is, he showed his pleasure, secretly, to the American friends he could trust in America's ' action. There is no one general In the world who has had as much fighting during the past three years as General Pancho Villa, rebel leader. Military attaches of the embassies and legations in the Mexican capital constantly pay tribute t' Villa's military genius. An instance of Villa's military cleverness was de scribed by a European military student thus: , ! "Villa never overlooks an opportunity to take advantage f the enemy. All of his fighting lately has been dona by means of a long, thin firing line. He distributes his troops over a vast space. It's one of the cleverest things he has ever done, for he knows well that the federal soldiers are men who havs been forced Into, the army, and " their generals must keep them bunched as they dare not let them get too far nway, for fear of desertion. Duraneo, Victoria and OJlnaga were lost in this way, Just because the federals didn't dare to spilt, their bodies of troops into small bands." Huerta'has all of an Indian's stoic ism. This in the way he spent the eventful day on which came the news .that President' Wilson raised the em bareo on arms shipped to the rebels: About 10 o'clock, after breakfast, be fore word came ef the raising of the eti.bargo. he. went to the Cafe Colon, near Ms home, merely stopping off for a drink, on his way to the palace. Of course. In every cafe in the capital there Is always some one ready to take a drlnV with "the president." At noon he was still there, with secret service men waiting around at various tables and standing on the sidewalk outside the cafe doors. At 1 o'clrvck came news that the em bargo had been raised. The Mexican and American newspaper correspond ents began a wild search for Huerta. At- last, at 3 o'clock, ?one American photographer and an English newspa. tier woman, seeing his car outside the cafe, entered the place and demanded to see th president The secret serv ice men Immediately bundled them .both Into an automobile and took them to cells in the nearest pojice station, in the meantime other correspond- inii hail f mi nil Moheno. the minister . of foreign relations, at W home 6 lunch. "I don't know where Huerta is." he said. "He leads a very informal life. Come to my office at 5 o'clock." There were a dozen correspondent! there at the appointed hour. After a long wait. Moheno got into his car riage, and the correspondents trailed him to the Palace, where the elusive dictator wa located. A score Qjt newspaper men immedi ately sent in their cards. Out cam a secretary. "The president wilt probably make a statement." he said. Another long ' wait until 9:30, when the secretary an- ' Bounded: "The president can't see you. Ha Is verv tausv. . Maybe he will make a statement tomorrow." Within 10 minutes Huerta was in Ills ' automobile speeding toward another cafe.

Under Vigorous Competition This Store Becomes More and More Powerful BetweenOurselves -Again we must repeat that this is a season of ribbons. Were I to devote pages in stead of paragraphs to the new use of ribbons, I should still leave! much unsaid, for the amazing ingenuity of the ribbon designer brings forth new ideas s every day. -Madame; is to be clothed from head I to foot in ribbons, it seems. Her hat, if it be not made entirely of them,, is sure, at least, to be decorat ed airily with an aspiring stick-up" graceful, perhaps fantastic, but very chic. -Next come the girdles, de signed artfully to conceal rather than to define the waist-line. Wide swathings of silk defy even an anatom ical expert to find it, and add at the same time the desired note of color to an otherwise somber costume. One of .the cleverest ideas which has! yet come from the versatile fingers of the rib bon designer is called the vestee girdle." It is a wide belt of crushed ribbon made to simulate a waistcoat in front, with a row or two of tiny buttons to heighten the resemblance. To be worn with the new short cutaway or bolero jacket. Could any thing more attractive be imagined? Another; happy thought of the ribbon expert is the flar . ing tier tunic attacnea to a high girdle, which will speed ily transform the plainest of skirts into the beruffled, bouffant affair that the sea son requires. Made with .two or three tiers and of moire or satin ribbon. Orders taken for the mak ing of these ribbon novelties I First Floor Latest Books "The Ascent of Denali" (McKinley) by Hudson Stuck.
