 In Birmingham Yesterday
By WALTER HARPER.

He was unfortunate who was driven from home yesterday by business or any other combination of circumstances, of fate or fortune.
 Even the politicians and their omni- present camp-folowers furled their tents Saturday night and sought the bosoms of their families.
 Birmingham had but few visitors. and those who live here wanted to get away,
 The day was so beautiful and enchant- ing that to eonsign one's self to the cold hospitality of city hotel would have been suicidal. Home. the quiet prome- nades along the awakening dells and the parks were the retreats that called to the spirit of every man.
 One or two of the Birmingham hotels had a goodly list of travelling men who found themselves far from home Satur- day night and came into Birmingham to spend Sunday. Next to home Birming- ham is the best place in the world to spend Sunday. At one of the leading hotels only one name defaeed the clean page of the register up to o'clock yes- terday afternoon.
 The Hotel Hillman had the longest list, but men in the bunch were lonesome looking and seemed good for a quarrel Though the lobby was we'll sprinkled dur ing the close of the afternoon almost every man sat alone and seemed to be

WHY DETROIT WOMAN
 SUED FOR DIVORCE

Detroit March 1S.-tSpecial )--Mrs George Ward, the beautiful young wo- mar who created a sensation In divorce court last week by stating that her hus- band had esoped with her mother, got her dtcree today. She told how her mother long ago declared she would have ven geance on her for siding with her father In family disputes, and how this ven- gearce eliminated in the stealing of her husbands love.
 Friends of mine would tell me that I'd better keep my eyes open" she saId but I refused to believe gossip My mother had the nerve to lecture me about not being strict enough with George Nights when they had been out together as I learned later, she would tell me that if George was her husband there wouldn't be any such goings on The night of June 21 he stayed out until in the morning. He told me he had been bowling down town. I found two notes in his pocket, one making a date with my mother for the night before and the other telling of their plans to run away together.
 1T went upstairs and asked again:
 e Where did you say you were last night?'
 Bowling he said.
 ..,rhen I showed him the notes.
 ''They fled the same day. I got letter from George dated Chicago the day after he went away.

LIGHT PRACTICE BY
 BASEBALL PLAYERS

.4ot Springs, Ark, March 13.-A re- turn of balmy weather today brought out the full quota of visiting major league players but only light prac- tice was 1ndulged in. At Wilmington park the full Brooklyn team and mem- bers of the New York Americans all l Atlanta Southern league team worked morning and afternoon while at Ma Jestic park the Cincinnati Nationals and Boston Americans were collected together for three hours in the after noon.
 Lumley has joined the Brooklyn men, making complete the roster of that club here. The talk of the day cen- tered about the announcement that cy Young and Lou Criger, the veteran battery who won the worlds champion ship one year for Boston and after ward played d prominent part jointly in major league ball. would be the battery next Sunday, working together probably for the last time when Brook lyn plays an allAmerican team here.

ALABAMA MAN WRITES HIS
 IMPRESSIONS OF YUCATAN

correspondent here, to refute the libeloue statements made in those articles.
 It Is claimed here that the native wmone are never what We call bad women." They come, it is said, from Cuba and the United States. Crime is rare. Drunkenness is unknown, still barrooms abound in great numbers and are kept open every day of the week, Sunday included The Yucatan beer Is said to make .'Milwaukee jealous The poiteness of the people is refreshing. When a native comes in hotel or rail- road car or other public place he usually bows and smiles to the one he sees first, whether he knows the person or not. This salutation is intended for all present.
 The old ruined cities are the most in- teresting and wonderful sights of the country. They very much resemble the Egyptian ruins along the banks of the Nile Pyramids, palaces and temples of Q nation no one knows who nor when can be seen few miles from this city. Many of them remain nnyisted and untouched, as the natives avoid them with super sttious fear.
 The country is rightfully called the Egypt of America. Many archaeologists claim this to be the cradle of the worlds first civilization. The question is too deep for newspaper article.
 As l write in my room with it's two immense doors or windows opening from floor to ceiling I see roses, oleanders. hybiscus, poinsetta, ciematis, cape jesa- mines bougainvillae and many other tropical flowers, all in bloom.
 For one who has the time, inclination and other necessaries of travel, take a winter trip through Mexico. Stop in Mexico City, of course. Arrange to finger long at Cuernavacca, Orlzaba Cordoba. Jalapa and Oaxacca. These places give one glimpses of paradises. Stop at Vera Cruz for a day, then sail for Progresso, shake off the restless spirit of travel and spend as long a time as possible in the
