Brilliant gatherings have been assembled in the various sections through-
the store that breathe an air of Springtime freshness and reminds one of
the near approach ot Easter And let us suggest With the earliest Easter
April 4th) we have known in a decade-It is not too early to make selec-
tions NO W! Stocks were never more complete.

"The Prper Styles t Show at All
TTtaes are Garments That Will Ap-
peal t All Woiquoh As Fit Hon? Amy
Woman to Weair."
And in this we are sure the women will gladly agree that this
broad collection of Garments-to-Wear for Spring presents the most
complete showing of the new fashions to be found anywhere. Here
at this store one may try on garments of character each with a
distinctive feature of its own and not rely wholly upon the judg-
ment of any one person for the vagaries of fashion find expression
in many charming phases this spring. Those creatures of impulse
the style creators are surely leading us a mad chase in their excur-
sions with the waist line. We know what the past season gave us
first every indication of Moyen age effects and then a gradually
increasing vogue of Empire bodices. But as for the accepted waist-
line placement for spring this feature alone varies as much as does
the collar. Of one thing we can reasonably assure ourselves the
short-waisted style is not to have everything its own way. Its vogue
is to be sharply contested by the bodices ending anywhere from a
po'int two inches below the regulation waistline to -a girdle draped
. low about the hips. In tailored suits favoritism seems about evenly
divided with perhaps a shade of difference accruing to the empire
modes.
The vogue for Shepherd checks holds steadily with that for the neutral
shades and the blues and black. One thing tb)at is certain to be retained
throughout the season is the pocket. Femininity Is to be pocketed as never
before. To be or not to be pocketed as to he within or without the pale of
the best dressers. And we invite you cordially to visit with us every day
and keep in touch with the new modes as they arrive with éach express
for In this way Is a continuous expose of the latest fashion features brought
to El Paso and the Popular.

seriously hampering tho operation or th"
railroads as well as smelters and other
plants employing huge forces or Mexican
workmen. An average of some üou ears
or coal has beso going through juanpt
monthly for oes in northern Mexico and
ofrielals of the American lines say they
have experienced the greatest dirrieulty In
securing the promtit return of the cars.
General Joae Roarlguei general mutiager
of railroads In Villa territory arrived In
El Paso yesterdsv anil i nnre went Into
conference with local railroad officials in
sn endeavor to straighten out the dirri-
eulty. The generul denies that tin-re has
been any wllirul delay In returning the
cars but points to the tart that a con-
siderable portion or the coal has been
delivered to points remote from the burder
hence the many delays are orten required
ror the trip rrom and hack to Juarez. The
frequent necessity or using practically all
the available locomotives lor the movemén4
of troop trains he says Is anotfler cause
of delay. General ltodrlgue expects to lie
shle to nrranae ror the immediate lirtliiir
of the embargo.
"The claim Tbat we an- willfully delsylng
the return of the coal cars to the i mi' i
state-." said lieneral iloilrigiiez vcst'-rda.v
morning "Is unjust. I have given strict
orders that all rolling slock b-loiiglng 10
American Hues must bo returned to Ibe

Lately we have been delivering an average
of Bo empties dally at the border. I have
every reason to hope the embargo will be
lifted at once when the Aui-ncaii officials
are convinced that .wo are doing everything
possible lo svold depriving them or the
use ot their rolling stock. The serious
psrt ot the embargo wire It lo be

it would cause to the large plants In l)d-

dosing down or these plants would nat-
urally ' mean the curtsllment If not the
suspension of mining oiierallon in many
districts and the eonscquonl throwing out
of employ mint of large numbers of work-
men to whom Idleness at this time would
