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 re dissolved Congress. This is believed to be due to representations made bv die* American Government that Justice,' be done the prisoners. 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.

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.

Wal- Iran . 1 ’inale, Ac 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.

Continued From Page 1. 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 GET A KODAK From $t> up.

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. Kenly New Head of Atlantic Coast Line NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—J. R. Kenly, of Wilmington, N. C., to-day was elected president of the Atlantic Coast Line to succeed the late Thom as M.
