The Alabama alumni of Sewanee from near and far re-assembled at a banquet last night at the Country club. The occasion was enjoyable in the extreme, especially as regards the manner in which old chums were brought together once more to discuss and live over the happy days spent in college life.
 The ultimate end of the banquet was to effect the united effort of all the sons of the University of the South in a great movement which has in view the en- dowment of the institution with all the necessary enlargements of her depart ments which have become inadequate for maintaining a standard of efficiency along with the rapid growth of the college.
 The purpose of the banquet last night was organization among the alumni and the affair proved to be one of the most enthusiastic college movements ever se. on foot in Birmingham. The Country club was tastefully decorated with smi- lax and hot-house flowers in the Sewanee color scheme, and to begin with the college men were made to feel at home with the familiar blue and white pen- nants and other decorations.
 Bountifu courses were served and about the board, which was presided over by H. G. Seibles in most gra- cious manner, gradually rose the spirit of buoyancy which only the college elect can understand. There were about 45 of the old men who came together last night to toast the name of Sewanee and there was not a man who failed to re- spond with a pledge to do all in his power for his alma mater.
 The Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, Bishop of Tennessee, and chancellor of the Univer- sity of the South, was guest at the ban quet last night and he made an eloquent plea to the Alabama alumni in behalf of their alma mater and complimentei them on the manner in which. after 50 many years they could come together with the same college spirit as formerly when they were students. He said that it meant much to an institution to have such loyal support from the men who were turned out finished product from her walls.
 There were many fine responses that

IS MONTGOMERY
 DRY? WELL, YES

Montgomery, April 1s.-(Special.)- Montgomery is very dry Saharan thirst was never more acute in Alabama than it is at the present time in her capital city. And by "all the eternals" 1t is going to stay dry, for Sheriff Horace Hood has said so in terms that are not in the least equivocal.
 ''So far as I can ascertain," stated Col Hood today there Is not a tiger in operation, nor any saloon. l have heard that there Is some hip-pocket business going on, but so far I have not been able to vouch for 1t. At any rate, you can put 1t down that If l find any such violations, no matter how covert they are, the violators will be punished to the fullest extent of the law
 The sheriff is receiving the co-opera- ton of the jursts of Montgomery in his taking every precaution to see to it that statewide prohibition is enforced as long as the laws are on the statutes. He has his deputies paying almost hourly vis- Its to the various soft drink stands which have at various times been found guilty of selling other brands of thirst quenchers.
 According to the best opinion In Mont gomery, an election cannot be held here before July to determine whether or not the city will go wet" but up to and beyond that time the law has got to be enforced, the official says, strictly to the letter.

MEDINA SAYS HIS DEFEAT WAS
 DUE TO DRUNKEN SOLDIERS

their line and advanced and twice were repulsed. After the third repulse l re- turned to Agus Prieta and found the men left in the town had been drinking and were in bad shade. l ordered the boxes of beer that had been opened. de- stroyed. I left guard over the unopened cases but before returning to the firing line found one of our officers drinking and allowing other soldiers to drink. I had troops disarm him and placed him in the guardhouse.
 During the day I had no opportunity to return from the firing line.
 ''In the dusk the enemy concentrated heavy attack on the center of the line. Garcia's men had been drinking and had deserted their trenches with the ex- ception of six Mexicans and three Amer icans When Garcia noticed this he left his position and rushed into the camp to get ammunition and round up his men but found them disposed through out the town and so drunk they could not get back to the central trenches the enemy had advanced and had taken them. Informed of this by a scout, I gave or ders for our troops to mount their horses and prepare to evacuate, so that we could form a new stronghold in the ad- jacent hills.
 At this point man with a shattered hip appealed to me for help. I picked him up and started toward the line. The United States patrol had been moved to Fifth street and I believed the ground between was neutral Just beyond this line an American soldier arrested me From this time on I hardly know what happened

GAR CRASHES INTO TWO AUTOMOBILES Considerable Damage Done By Accident at Noun
 tain Terrace

Two automobiles were badly damaged at Mountain Terrace last night about o'clock when they were struck by g Mountain Terrace electric car. The oc cupants of the automobiles had jumped to the ground so that no one was in jured.
 The big White steamer of J. H. Jobsor of the Southern Welding and Reclaim ing company, 51o North Twenty-sixth street suffered the most damage, al though the E M F. touring car of Dr. J. F. Frazier was considerably bat tered up.
 From the accounts it appears that Mr. Jobson was taking Dr. Frazer's car tc the shops for some repairs when dlffe~- ential trouble caused the rear wheele of the Frazier car to lock and they could not get off the track.
 We were bringing Dr. Frazier's car to town for repairs" said MT. Jobson after the accident. 'and 1t was hitched to my car with a two and a half inch rope. When the wheels of pr. Frazier ear locked 1 saw the Mountain Terrace car coming. Jumping from my car ran down the track about a hundre yards and tried to wave the motorman down. He paid no attention to me, bur ran on and crashed into my car first. The terrific jar opened the steam valve and what was left of the car dashed up the hill at the side of the street tearing up stumps and young trees as it went.
 "The rope which was fastened to the Frazier car snapped but even then the motorman did not stop. but ran on and smashed into Dr. Fraziers car. I es.s- mate the damage to the Frazier car at about $2OO, but 1t will take fully s12O0 to put my car in shape again.
 'The motormans name was J. H. Rat Tiff and the car was No. 3os. The electric car had no conductor and no headlight.
 Fl. N. Royster, my assistant. wno was riding in the Frazier car. jumped out just in time to save himself and so1 eff with a skinned knee"
 Conductor No. 755 on the Highland ave- nue line, who passed the party In dis tress immediately after the smash-up, said that Motorman Ratliff had made a statement to him explaining the cause of the collision. The motorman was un- der the impression that the two men who had come up the track to stop him before he reached the crossing were mak- ing an effort to board his car between stations, and therefore he paid no at tention to their signals.
 He claims that the place where the accident occurred is very dark and that he could see only a little way ahead, and he stated further that having few occasions to make any stops at all at that point, he is accustomed to making fast time. He told the conductor on the Highland avenue car that the acci' dent was simply unavoidable on his part.

 Douglas, Ariz., April 1S.-The rebel de- reat at Agua Prieta was attributaby wholly to the over indulgence Of the insurrecto soldiers in intoxicating liquors fourd in the saloons and stores of the captured city, according to Col. Juan Medina, commander in chief of the rebel forces who fled into this city and sur rendered to the United States author ities. Accounting the story of the bat tie and it's ending, Colonel Medina said:
 Shortly after we occupied the city I issued orders for the destruction Of the liquor supply in the various stores When the federals arrived and the bat tie opened I took a position on the east side of town. Balasario Garcia com manded the center and Rico and Escan- don the right wing to the west.
 q gave orders to my men, except those who had Mauser rifles of long range, not to fire until the enemy was within 800 yards. With me in the center was one sharpshooter who cut down all who attempted to man the federal ma chine guns in the attack on the center. The officer who commanded this gun was among those shot down. Another man took his place but l saw immediately that he could not handle the gun ef- fectively.
 "I ordered my troops to withhold their fire and permit the enemy to advance. This they did until within 800 yards, when we opened fire along the line, 400 in ac tion. All Douglas is witness to the fact that the federals had to fall back under this fire.
 Twice again the federals reformed

 Lack of Provisions
 The rebels were seriously handicapped also by the lack of provisions.
 Both of the federal machine guns were in the bull ring today with a plentiful store of ammunition
 The federal army appeared today to be in good fighting trim despite the hard campaign and continued march, ing of the last three weeks. Twenty rebels, one an American, ap- peared today a the home of rancher, four miles north of Douglas, and asked for breakfast When the rebel com mander announced the lack of ammuni- ton they crossed the border The American member of the party said he knew other Americans who fought with the rebels yesterday.

No deaths have occurred among them and hope Is held out for the recovery of all Under orders from Washington Post master Caldwell has held all mail ad- dressed to points across the border for several days.

 Washington. April 1s-The official yer sion of the evacuation of Agua Prieta was given in a message from Nogales, Ariz., to tho Mexican embassy. It fol- lows:
 T beg to advise you of the complete triumph of the federal army in taking Agua Prieta from the rebels, who were completely routed. The federals displayed great heroism and abnegaton in spite Of the tremendous odds and the disadvant- ages they had to surmount in order to fire and capture the town without doing damage to persons and property in Doug las, Ariz.
 q am unable to state as yet the num- Der of dead. Those of the rebels are heavy. Many of the latter, including the 11o a1a a,s1 1,l surrendered to the American forces. The federals captured great number of arms and ammunition. The public has not been allowed to enter and the serv- ices of the Red Cross have been grate- fully declined as the Mexican troops have all the necessary elements to at- tend to all of the wounded"
