RIDING IN AUTOS
Villa Bandits Live in Style OFF
Chihuahua Loot.
Capture Three Carloads of Food
Not Far From Border.

Ell Paso, Tex, Dec. AFTER re-
equipping his army with supplies TAX
en- from Chihuahua City, Villa is NOV
ing again, according to reports made
to United States authorities here to-
day.
In official circles here it is believed
the bandit chief is making his own
headquarters at San Andres, from
which point he is scattering his forces
in small bands and directing their
operations.
In the past three days a rear guard
action between Villistas and govern
ment troops took place south of
Fresno, eight miles southwest of Chi
huahua City. The movements of gov
eminent troops are hampered by lack
of railway equipment, as Villa took
with him practically every available
many automobiles away for the use
of his officers.
Durango Evacuated?
Unofficial reports coming to mining
companies here state that the city of
Durango was evacuated December 2
by General Gavira before an attack of
bandits and discontinued members of
the Carranzistas garrison. Confirma-
ton of these reports could not be OBJ
tanned thru official channels.
A Mexican Central freight train was
held up and looted yesterday by ban
dts, presumably under Quevo, at Gal

1t would have been a dreadful way
to have life end, but it would have

But she didn't poke her head through
that little loop of wire. Instead. she
stepped in another little loop cunningly

snapped up straight when she had

1t had snatcher her up in the air with

But it wasn't the pain OF this from
which Mrs. Grouse suffered most. In
deed. she hardly felt 1t at all. It was
the terror Of being helpless and won
pen to her. Many. many times had
Mrs. Grouse been terribly frightened,
for she had had many narrow escapes
from those who had hunted her, but
with her fright always had been the
feeling that she could escape il only
she used her wits. Her wits, her legs
and her stout wings she had been free
to use excepting once when she was
caught under an icy crust which had
formed over her while she slept. That
time she had felt something of the
same helplessness and hopelessness un-
til Farmer Browns Boy had found her
and set her free, and yet 1t had not
been as bad then as now. for under
that crust starvation was all she had
to fear. None OF her enemies could find
her there. But now supposing fierce
Mr. Goshawk should happen along!

night when Hooty the Owl began hunt

neither OF them found her she might
hang there until she starved to death,
or. worse STILL the terrible creature
who had set that snare should find her.
Poor Mrs. Grouse. She beat her stout
wings until she was SO tired that she
could hardly move them. but all 1t did
was to tighten that wire around her
leg. Big tears filled her eyes she
hung head down painting for breath.

White Is Ahead of Colors.

The introduction Of white suits at
Palm Beach in January was not as sig
nificant as their appearance on 5th ave-
nue. in the same month. No layman can
enter into the question of the shortage
of dyes or put down the fashion for
white to that alleged shortage alone
the important fact is that white cloth
and white serge suits have made their
appearance earlier in the season than
ever before.
Taking this as a forerunner it ar
CUES that white will have good run
in the spring and summer. an item of
news that should interest the cleaners.
To the average mind there is nothing
very attractive about a white cloth
suit unless it is heaped with brown or
black furs and worn in midwinter
In spring suits of shantung or heavy
iah silk are much cooler-looking and
more appropriate to the season, and
i'll summer a frock is better than a suit
The chance for jersey cloth, there
fore. is to GUST broadcloth and take
the place of shantung. which it can
do with authority. The all-white suit
touched up with color, so the new
French designs give us ideas like those
in the suit which is sketched today.

The collar on this coat of white jersey
cloth is worth special attention. 1t is
one of the many new shapes that have
put the position collar out of fash
ion. 1t is a kind of small cape that
reaches well out over the shoulders
and is somewhat high at the back of
the neck.
Capes are in such high fashion that
collars naturally follow their exam
pie and take upon themselves unusual
dimensions. Some of them hang down
tho back like the old fashioned sailor
collar: others are lifted high in the
hack and draped down the front in
the style that men adopted in the late
eighteenth century.
A few of them are small and nearly
all are plain, except for the edge Of

of the meanest of all traps. Had she

opening in the brush fence she would
