Complete House Furnishers Oakland, California, Finds It Pays to Own Public Utilities. ' (Special to Tho Times.) OAKLAND, Cal., April 29. Municipal ownorBhlp of public util ities Is gaining n strong foothold In Oakland. Tho lntcst plan, which has been endorsed by all tho mayors of tho cast bay cities, Is tho ac quisition of tho Peoples' Water com pany, which has been offeree for salo at a prlco to be fixed by tho biato Railroad Commission. Oakland already owns a short municipal railroad, a million dollar auditorium, ono of tho best systoms of wharves In tho country, many hundreds of acres of laud along tho waterfront for Industrial sites, and a high pressure water system. An election will bo called short ly to allow Oakland citizens to de cide whether or not thoy wish to buy tho water plant. Tho water company has offered a 46 day op tion on the plant, and If tho cltlzons voto In fnvor o Its purchaso, this optlo.i will bo extended to gtvo tho ..nllroad Commission au opportunity of appraising tho property and fix ing tho prlco.

Perhaps It puiiiu uu uuitur iu any men ui method, unless It may bo that tho motnou or tho court IB to cxpond tho cash of thu taxpayers whore tt Is least needed. For instanco a ploco of road in tho Fair Oaks locality which has Ijeon In almost perfect condition for tho last fifteen years, Is bolng worked over. Why? Wo aro llko Brother Coo; wo wontior why. Tho court is spending a noat llttlo sum of money on n plcco of rond that absolutely did not require It, whllo within a comparatively short dlstanco Is n rond upon which that inonoy would bo well spent. Wo suggest to tho county court that It would bo well to wako up and hear tho birds sing. Slither lln Bun. HOW TO DANCE THE MAXIXE i By ODGER5 T.

The prlncplo' of Uie Maxlxe step in somewhat on the order of a lengthened polka step. It is. a gliding motion, with the feet at right angles. The ad rauced foot alternates between heel and toe, wllllo tho other foot slides up ontil they tpuch. Tho rotntjon of the figures is as fol lows; Four Btntlght steps, the roan golua forward, ij'our stops In open position, with man's left und girl's right heel advanced. Next comes tho basic step of tho Mnxixo, tho turn. On tho fifth for ward step bend forward from the Wnlst, turn slightly on tho hocl and, going forward on tho other foot, re peat tho step'. Continue Uits turn, at tcrnaUng heel and toe, for four counts. Next come four moro straight steps. While theso steps are bolng taken the position of the arms is changed. The left bauds are clasped over the head, and tho right hands nro clasped be hind tho girl's back. Four turns are done from this position. Following the fourth turn, swing the girl around so that you are in an open position, but she has her back toward you. Hold tho left handa out straight to tho sldo and hold her right hand on her hip. From this position the nknt Ing stop is dona 'This consists of the regular Maxlxo stop on first the left and then tho right foot. On the sec ond count of the step to the right do a long gliding dip, turning Just a little to be In position for the next step. From tho skating step the man stands directly behind the girl, holding beth arms outstretched. They do the Maxlxe atop on alternate feet, but the man must take longer steps, carrying him from side to side, so that on the right stop the girl's head Is on his left shoulder, and vlco versa. With the man sUll bohlnd the girl, eight side steps aro takon, In tho course of which the girl must mako throe half turns. This brings thorn face to face, and four turns .on heel and toe follow. It is now time to do the famous Mercury step, Tako four straight steps In ono step position (facing each oth er), follow with a half cords from the tango and you are ready. The actaal step of the Morcpry is as follows: On tho last step of the corde the man's right foot is slightly advanced, his left flat on the floor. Tho girl's right foot Is also flat on the floor and hor loft back n few Inches. The man must tako a firm hold on the girl's shoulder with right hand and hold hor tight hand down on a level with Ms waist Ho raises his right kneo until it touches the girl's left kneo, and sho then Jumps into tho ntr about n foot, throwing the left leg hack. Tho touch of the man's knee must bo very slight all of the Jump coming from his left hand aad a slight spring on the girl's right foot This ends the series of steps, and one can go into the turn and repeat them if desired. Any number of semt-origtnal stepe can be devised for the Maxlxe, but care must bo taken that tbey are ia keeping with the spirit of the dance. It Is better to use variations of other standard stepe. For instsnee, the turn from flirtation position and the Jump- loss Mercury are very pretty figure. ow w 'ARE YOU BOTHERED With Corns?

VILLA IH TREACHEROUS. Fow pooplo who know General Villa and understand tho man's mind and his mothod of living for tho past fifteen years place any credence In his protestations of friendliness for this country. Villa will keop faith with his, word only so lqng as It payB him to do so. He Is unscrupulous, vicious and un reliable. His word has no more permanency or faith than the word of tho lowest nnd vilest of those peons who follow him and pall them selves his "gonto." People who know Villa and havo had dealings with him would Just as quickly trust themsolvos In a cage with a man eating tlgor us to trust themselves In a tight place with Villa, His word to this country and his protestations mean nothing. He will bear close watching, Carran w l a square, conscientious man who. Is patriotic In the extreme, and hi lovo for Mexico may be great enough to force him to abandon the pursuit of his own ambitions and Join his lot with Huerta to repel what he terms "the American In vasion." Villa has no country love, he Is not capablo of It. his only ambition la power the power of po sition and with it tho power of life and death be Is an autocrat who would be a dictator moro cruel than Huerta and more implacable than Diaz, If fortune should ever place him In Buch a position. Villa's word Is not worth ono hot, fetid breath of air from tho desert, where for fifteen years he has been a ban dit and a companion to the loath some creeping things whose nature he has absorbed.
