pause beside the curb, was champing

Then he smiled approximately. All
the same. l thank you for the compli-

the porter.
But before entrusting himself to this
gratuitous conveyance he put himself
to the trouble of inspecting the chauf-
feur, who proved to be a capable-look-
ing mechanic logged out in rich black
livery which, though relieved by a vast
amount of silk braiding, was, like the
car in his charge, guiltless of any sort

last thirty-six hours was beginning to
tell on him. though his youth was still
so vital. SO instinct with strength and
vigor that he could. if need be. go as
long again without sleep.
None the less he was glad of this
opportunity to snatch a few moments
rest by way of preparation against the
occult elimination of this adventure.

which might interfere with General Funston's plans for secrecy.
 Officers of the general staff were on duty at the department until !a'a to- night but so far as could be learned no additional information of importance had been received. General Funston is expected to report only when there are devlopmnts and it is understood gen erally that there is little probability of a clash between the American troops and the bandits before Friday or Sat urday.
 Reports tonight told of General Obreson, Carranzas new secretary of war and chief military man, ordering General Gavira. commander of the way with the United States forces This was accepted as convincing proof of the attitude of the Carranza govern ment, and any remaining fears of trou- ble between the Americans and soldiers of the de facto government are based on the possibility of insubordination or of mistaken identity.
 Throughout the day the war depart ment maintained silence as to the si.- nation from the border. General Funston was moving his pieces in the game with Villa behind curtain of secrecy. IL probably was the m ;t co nplete censorship the country ger has known. The screen was drawn so close that the department itself was not advised of the crossing until l.pu~ after the troops were on the march.
 The only dispatch as to the border situation received by Secretary Baker during the afternoon dealt with the de parture of the Eleventh cavalry from Chattanooga to reinforce the border patrol
 Rum0rs flew about the corridors of the war department all day .:.ma dealt with reported fighting on both sides of the border. One said a regi- ment of American cavalry had been an initiated. Department officials had no reports on which such statements could have been founded.
 Only meagre news bulletins from the troops In Mexico are expected. Willie four correspondents of press dssoCid - tions have been given credentials to accompany General Pershing's com mand, they will be under strict censor ship. Regulations of the war depart ment under which they were desig mated give the commander control over the information sent back.

COSTUME WITH FASHIONABLE BLOUSE EFFECT.
The Patterns for This Desipn Besides Allowing for All Seams, give the True Basting Line and show Diagrams for Cutting and Making.

This is coat that can be made available for present needs and also tor between seasons and the spring. For the cold days 1t can be buttoned up closely about the throat with the collar turned up in. "chin chin style. Tor the mild days 1t can be rolled open as 1t is here. The skirt worn with 1t shows one of the very newest variations of the four-piece model. The back Is circular and there is q panel at the front forming a box-plait. An ornamental pocket is arranged at each side of the plait. The model is an excellent one for all seasonable ma terials. Incidentally it may be added the costume is very pie one to make, the bloused coat requires no htting and consists of just the body portion and a peplum joined by means of belt. In the picture. the material is sulting satin and nothing could be landsomer, but the design is as good for simple wool serge and poplin as 1t IS tor satin and broadcloth. For between-seasons, silk poplins are to be much worn. One of these with collar and cuffs of velvet would make an ideal costume for the milder days ot the early season. For the trip to the South, white broadcloth would be handsome with black velvet trimming
 For the medium size the coat will require, 4 Is yards of material 30 inches wide, 31s yards 14 or :, yards s1 inches wide, with F yard 20 inches wide for the collar and cuffs. For the skirt will be needed, $ yards of material 36 inches wide, 354 wards 44 or SIS yards 54. It is 5 yards in width at the lower edge.
 The May Manton pattern of the coat, SS7I is cut in sizes from s4 to 4 bust measure and the skirt. 887z. Tn sizes from 24 to B inches waist measure. They will be mailed to any address by the Fashion De partment of this paper, on receipt of ten cents for each.
