ZAPATA DRAWS NEAR TO JOICO CITY Bandit Outlaw Captures City Forty Miles From Capital After Bloody Fight

BY THOMAS P. COATE3, Special Staff Correspondent of the International News Service. ViiRA CRUZ, May 11. Huerta's apital is now the "city of dread." General Emiliano Zapata, the barbarous cut-throat, whose depredations have terrorized southern Mexico for several years, has captured Cuerna Vaca, according to information received here. Cuerna Vaca is only forty miles from Mexico City. Tampico has fallen or about to fall to the Constitutionalists. Saltillo is menaced by General Villa's brigades. Vera Cruz is in the hands of the

Americans. Mazatlan, several times reported captured, can not held out much longer. President Huerta's power is steadily crumbling. He is awaiting the end, and at the same time three thousand foreigners are sharing his vigils, wondering what is in store for them when the capital falls to one or the other f the fierce revolutionary leaders. News of the capture of Cuerna Vaca by Zapata, the man who delights to call himself the "Antilla of the South," was brought her by William Smiley, who came out of the capital on a refugee train that left Friday. He had fled with a number of other Americans from Cuerna Vaca, and the train on which they were taken to the capital was fired upon by the Zapatistas. Federal soldiers guarded the train from Cuerna Vaca to Mexico City. Two of them were killed by the rebels' bullets, and a number were wounded. The passengers escaped injury by lying on the floors of the cars. Sends Ultimatum. Smiley said that before Zapata opened his attack on Cuerna Vaca he sent this demand for surrender to General Breton, the Federal military governor: "Sir I have the honor to inform you that I have absolute knowledge of the scanty garrison of Cuerna Vava. My superior force will enable me to take the city forthwith, but being desirous of avoidable loss of blood by four troops, we are prepared to receive terms you deem convenient for your capitulation." Breton's only answer, said Smiley, was to strengthen his outposts, and Zapata immediately attacked from the south. Reports from Tampico were anxiously awaited here today. There were rumors that the oil town had been captured, but no official advices to this effect had been received up to 7 a. m. The Ward liner Mexico, sailed under rush orders yesterday afternoon from Vera Crus and should reach Tampico today. This vessel .will receive refugees taken out of the town while fighting between the Federals and Constitutionalists proceeds.

LADIES! SECRET TO DARKEN GRAY HAIR

Bring Back Its Color and Lustre With Grandma's Sage Tea Recipe. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol .added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant; remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 60 cents a large bottle, at drug stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy," thus avoiding a lot of mues. While wispy, gray, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because It does it so naturally, so evenly. Vou just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and you appear years younger.

NATION PAYS HONOR TO VERACRUZ HEROES (Continued from Page One)

the stock from which they came. Therefore, they were in a peculiar sense of our blood and they proved it by showing that they were of our spirit, that no matter what their derivation, no matter where their people came from, they thought and wished and did thipgs that were American; and the flag under which they served was a flag in which all the blood of mankind is united to make a free nation. "War, gentlemen, is only a sort of dramatic representation, a sort of dramatic symbol of a thousand forms ofduty. I never went into battle; 1 never was under fire, but I fancy that there are some things just as hard to do as to go under fire. I fancy that it is just as hard to do our duty when men are snearing at you as when they are shooting at you. When they shoot at you they can only take your natural life. When they sneer at you, they can wound your heart and men who are brave enough, steadfast enough, steady in their principles enough, to go about their duty with regard to their fellowmen, no matter whether there are hisses or cheers, men who can do what Rudyard Kipling in one of his poems wrote: "Meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two impostors just the

same,' are men for a nation to be proud of. Morally speaking, disaster and triumph are imposters. The cheers of the moment are not what a man ought to thi(t about, but the verdict of his conscience and of the consciences of mankind. "So when I look at you I feel as if I also and we all were enlisted men. Not enlisted in your particular branch of the service, but enlisted to serve the ' country, no matter what may come, what though we may waste our lives in the arduous endeavor. "We are expected to put the utmost energy of every power that we have into the service of our fellowmen, never sparing ourselves not condescending to think of what is going to happen to ourselves but ready if need be to go to the utter length of complete self sacrifice. As I stand and look at you today I think of those spirits that have gone from us, I know that the road is smoother for the fu

ture. These boys have shown us the way and it is easier to walk on it. because they have gone before and shown us how. May God grant to all of us that vision of patriotic service which here in solemnity and grief and pride is borne in upon our hearts and consciences." Arrives Behind Schedule. - President Wilson was a few minutes behind his schedule in reaching the navy yard, the procession having been held. up by the enormous crowds which jammed the streets. At the navy yard about 50,000 people were massed behind the ropes stretched about the parade grounds. Twenty

thousand more were in the streets and grouped upon nearby housetops. The parade ground area was set aside for the placing of the caskets, for soldiers and officials. The nearest line of lay spectators was about 300 fet removed from the speakers' stand. Women Faint. So great was the crash when the head of the funeral procession arrived that a number of women fainted and others were injured by being jostled. As the bluejackets fiom the Texas and Wyoming drew into the yard the marine bands played a dirge. These sailors took up positions near the speakers' stand. The caisson drew up right In front of the speakers' stand, while President Wilson looked on with deep realization of the solemnity of the occasion in his eyes and the lines of his face. Bluejackets from the Montana were drawn up as an honor guard for the president. Nearly thirty minutes times was taken up in removing the caskets from the caisscns to the ground, President Wilson meanwhile standing with bared head.
