Zapata Sends Courier to Blanquet
From Suburbs, but Order

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY, I)er. IS.—General I
Emiliano Zapata, leader of the rebel i
bands that for several weeks have '
been pressing <’loso to the capital, to
day demanded the surrender of Mexi
co City. His message was brought ,
into the city by a courier under cover
of darkness and taken directly to the
home of General Ulanquet, Minister
• Wai
Without waiting for a reply the
courier hastened nack to Zapata's .
headquarters near Ajusco Mountain
The demand will be Ignored by the
Government.
Officials of the War Department ad
mitted to-day that the supply of am
munition in the possession of the
Government is very small. This may |
hasten the downfall of General
.Huerta, as the Zapatista rebels are I
firmly intrenched at several points in I
the Federal district, and by their
guerilla tactics will attempt to wear
down the capital s garrison.
Vast quantities of ammunition have
been wasted by drunken soldiers sent
out to tight the Zapatistas, but th4
rebels have carefully husbanded their
supply. They advance day by day
closer to the capital, and messengers
have brought word that traitors
among the- garrison soldiers w re
selling ammunition to the revolu
tionists.
In an attempt to win the support of I
iiis bitterest enemies. General Huerta
will release on Christmas Day many <»f
the Deputies who were imprisoned when

to be due to representations made bv

Gomez Followers
Plot New Revolt.
EL PASO, TEXAS, Dec. is The j
arrest here to-day of a dozen men
revealed the fact that a new Mexican
revolt is being fomented, with the
purpose of landing Emilio Yasquez
Gomez in the presidency. Dr. Gomez
was a candidate for President in the
recent Mexican election, opposing ,
General Huerta on the anti-election
ticket, but was compelled to flee the
country several weeks before the
election took place.
The new uprising ha3 the support
of General Felix Diaz. Ex-Governor j
Gayou, of the state of Ooahuila, ar
rived here last night from Havana,
where he was In conference with
General Diaz.
According to documentary evidence
which was seized, together with a j
large quantity of arms and ammuni
tion. representations have been made
to General Puscual Orozco, General
Ynez Salazar and other Federal com
minders at Ojlnaga to join the re- I
volt against Huerta.
Dr. Gomez Is be^eved to be in El
Paso living quietly in some obscure
house. letters seized by the Federal
authorities indicated that the Gomez
insurgents planned to strike the llrst
blow- about Christmas following the
entry of Gomez into Mexico at Ha
Palo m as.
A committee consisting of General
Enrique Gomez. General Felipe Ci
ceros and Major 8ylvest.ro Quevedo
was appointed by the local junta of
Gomez rebels to go to Ojinaga and
lay an alluring proposition before the
Mexican Federal commanders The
office of commander in chief of the
northern forces was offered Orozco
and bounties were offered the sol
diers.
The junta has a number of circulars
printed giving the platform of the
Yaaquista-Diaz insurgents and an
nouncing that General Emiliano Za
pata has embraced the cause. The
platform calls for seizure of ull lands
owned by the rich and equal dis
tribution of wealth among the poor.

Devotees of Waltz Should Learn
Single Steps of This New
Dance Easily.
Here is the first dancing lesson
for Georgian readers by Miss
Donna Bain, beautiful instructor
of Atlanta society and brilliant
expert in all the latest steps.
By MISS DONNA BAIN.
The popularity which the hesitation
waltz has recently achieved in Amer
ican dancing circles is an indication
that the old-time glide waltz, so pop- I
ular in the days of our forefathers, is
coming back into favor, for the hesi
tation retains many of the beauties
of the glide with distinctive varia
tions that give it what might be
termed individuality.
And. incidentally, it is to be great
ly hoped that the favor with which
the return of the glide waltz, even
in a modified form, is being greeted,
will means the extermination of those
dancing abominations called turkey
trot and the bear and all the other
freak dances that require exagger
ated. unnecessary and foolish move
ments of the shoulders and the body
to give them a thrill and carry them
to success.
Full of Grace and Beauty.
There was never a dance, perhaps,
so tilled with natural grace and
beauty as the glide waltz, and you
will still find that the majority’ of the
dancers, though they bow to the dic
tates of fashion and dance the new
dances, still have a tender spot in
their hearts for the glide waltz and
dunce it at every opportunity. And
for these the hesitation is a suitable
and satisfactory substitute. It is a
combination of the Boston and the
old glide waltz, combined in just the
right proportion to suit devotees of
both dances. The Boston steps give
it vim and go. while there is retained
enough of the glide waltz to pre
vent the dance from being awkward,
and to give it a sort of bewildering
beauty that neither the Boston nor
the glide waltz alone has.
The hesitation is not hard to dance,
anti to learn it one does not have to
have any special fund of natural
grace, although the more graceful the
beginner is the quicker will she learn.
| Grace is an inherent quality of the
j dance, and any recognized dance,
I danced well, is graceful. The aver-
I age person, even with no knowledge
I of dancing, should learn the hesita-
I lion waltz in & few lessons, and :\*r
a good waltzer the task should be
even easier.
Instructions for dancing the hesi-
i tation waltz could be spun out in al-
j most an endless thread, but I think
the following will suffice to give ar v-
| one an idea of how to dance it
Here Are the Steps.
I In the hesitation waltz the g
should start on the right foot, and
balance back on the left, taking four
Boston walk steps forward; waltz
l back on the left and 2iesita;° • ;i \
right; starting on the left foot, take
four Boston steps, reversing to left
and hesitating on the left; repeat,
starting on the right foot.
Another step in the hesitation waltz
is made by waltzing on the left foot,
alternating forward and back, and
hesitating on the right foot between
t^e waltz steps. There are numerous
others that come with practice and
that should not be attempted until
the principles of the dance have been
well grounded.
And in dancing, remember that the
more you try to be graceful, the more
graceful you probably will be. And
above all do not shrug your shoulders
or w'ggle y rar body. There are some
dances, notable interpretive and clas-
sica. dunces that require certain
movements of the arms, shoulders
and t >»* body to convey the full mean-
''ng < ’ 1 he dance—but in the modern
bal: oom dance such movements are
ou< of place and ungraceful.

eral to report to Congress the prob- .
able cost of connecting a telegraph j
and telephone system with the postal
service by some feasible plan.’ are
evidences of the policy of this Gov- j
ernment ultimately to acquire and
operate these electrical means of;
communication as postal facilities, as i
is done by all the principal nations,
the United States alone excepted.
"The successful operation of the
parcel post has demonstrated the
capacity of the Government to con
duct the public utilities which fall
properly within the postal provision
of the Constitution.
Includes Telephones, Too.
"Every argument in favor of the
Government ownership of telegraph
lines may be advanced with equal
logic and force in favor of the Gov
ernment ownership of telephone lines.
It has been competently decided that
a telephone message and a telegram
are the same within the meaning of
the laws governing the telegraph ser
vice and therefore It is believed that
the statute enabling the Government
to acquire, upon payment of an ap
praised valuation, the telegraph lines
of the country will enable the Gov
ernment lo acquire the telephonic
network of the country.
"Parcel po. t reaches everywhere
whereas private expresses extend
their operations only to profitable ter
ritory," says the report. "Twenty-
millions of rural residents now have
house-to-house delivery and collec
tions of parcels, a service formerly to
be had only in cities and towns."
Telegraph Lines Useless.
Representative Lewis, of Maryland,
who has devoted months to the study
of the Government ownership of wire
lines, is not committed fully to the
plan advanced by Burleson. The
Postmaster General believes the Gov
ernment should operate both the tele
phone and telegraph lines. The I/ewis
bill contemplates taking over the
telephone wires only.
“We do not need the telegraph sys
tem,” said Mr. Lewis to-day. "The
Government may acquire and use the
wires both to send telephone and
telegraph messages. It is being done
now."
Mr. Lewis estimates that the tele
phone systems of the country, in
cluding the Bell and independent
lines, may be purchased for $900,000,-
000. The acquisition of the telegraph
would cost at least $200,000,000 addi
tional.
"The committee has not yet con
sidered the legislative features of Its
annual bill," said Chairman Moon, of
the Postoffice Committee of the
House.
Administration Bill Coming.
"The recommendations of the Post
master General are yetj to be digested
by the committee, but the Govern
ment ownership of telephone and
telegraph lines is such a big problem
that a party caucus probably will be
held before any definite action is
taken.”
It Is believed that Mr. Moon will
introduce, after the Christmas holi
days, the Administration bill.
"It is too big a problem to be de
cided offhand on the recommendation
of anyone,” said Representative Mad
den, Republican member of the Post-
office Committee. "You may depend
upon it, there will be a most thorough
investigation of the entire subject be
fore this Congress acts. Government
ownership of these properties may
come, but 1 am against that until the
subject has been thoroughly probed.” I
"Government ownership and oper
ation of the telephone and telegraph
Is coming," said Victor Murdock, Pro
gressive leader of the House. "It may
not be accomplished during this ses
sion of Congress, but it ought to be."
Underwood Ready for Caucus.
Majority Leader Underwood indi
cated that if Chairman Moon desired ■
a caucus of House Democrats the i
party conference would be called and
the entire question thrashed out

among the Democrats. He said that
undoubtedly the report of the Post
master General was reflective of the
views of the President, and that this
would have weight with the Demo
cratic Congress.
House leaders generally are con
cerned with the politics of the plan.
The question is whether it will be a
wise move to agitate at this time the
Government ownership of such a tre
mendous system on the heels of tar
iff revision, currency reform, pros
pective anti-trust legislation and the
Administration bill to operate a Gov
ernment railroad in Alaska. Conser
vative members of the House are op
posed to crowding the business world
with too much legislation, and are
now doubtful of the w isdom of incur
ring a public debt of approximately
one billion dollars to take over the
wire systems.
