The dance is to be introduced in Anderson by a beautiful American girl who has lived practically ail of her life in Mexico City and who is now' in An derson for a short stay with rela tives. "The Bullet," as its name indicates, had its origin in the stormy revolu tion which has been raging in Mex ico and Anderson's attractive visitor has danced it in that country when sure-enough leaden bullets actually crashed into the windows of the ball room. The visitor here is the daugh ter,of a rich factory operator and the family ?ive in the old palace of the Maximilians, which is just across the street from a Madero stronghold. Many of the bullets from the rebel guns lodged in the wall of the young lady's home and she says that it was nothing unusual for her to be awak ened by a bullet flying through her window, lt was in this house that the "Bullet" was first introduced and even the whining and whistling noise tho Winchester bullets failed to dampen the ardor of the happy American boys and girls as they away the hours and cantered to the tune of the cannon's roar and the battle cries. Rumor says that invitations are shortly to be sent out in Anderson b> the prominent family where the young lady is visiting, for a magnifi cent ball, at which time the new dance is to be introduced and those Anderson people who. are fortunate enough to secure "bids" for the event will doubtless be present. VILLA PROTESTS HIS PATRIOTISM Disclaims any Ambition to Be Come President of Mexico; Backs Carranza t (By Associated Press.) Juarez. Mex.. Jan. ?ft:-Gen.

"As proof of mry loyalty and as evidence that I have no aoribltion to become presi dent, I would leave the country If he ordered me to do BO." Gen. Villa's interview was given in his little plastered adobe house, where he went immediately on his arrival from Chihuahua. On the florr of the. front room where he stood were 16 bags, each containing lO.OOO Mexican dollars, and on the windcwslll were half a dozen newly purchased dia mond rings, glittering '.n their plush boxes. Thc coln wi* purchased from the banks In Fl PasQ,-.ir use tn Cbi hunhua, wbece silver has been scarce, ?sd th? aisonond rings were presents from various rebel commanders. Gen. Villa was garbed in a now olive green uniform, the first tailor made uniform he ever wore. The general answered questions with a show of characteristic fierceness in his clinched nats and black, gleaming eyes. "I have never been in anything but the 'fullest'accord wnh Gen. Car ranza," said Oen. Villa. "I never had any personal. ambition to reach high office. 1 am a fighting man only, and I am fighting* tor the liberation of my country. t:ot to elevate myself."
