 The Alabama Railroad Commission al 11:3o o'clock this morning. rendered decision as to the. site for locating the Union passenger station for Mobile. The site selected, after a careful hearing and personal inspection of the three proposed, is one the north side of Beauregard, be- tween Royal and St. Joseph Streets. The Southern Railway Company is authorized to erect and maintain the structure, which must be suitable to the needs and requirements of the railroads and the city and actual work must begin not later than May 9th. 7et el- .szE.
 In rendering the decision President Smith took occasion to say that the peoT pie of Mobile owed to Hon. F. O. Hoff- man a debt of gratitude for his active work in securing the needed structure.
 The new site is one mile from the site of the present alleged passenger station. Under the order all the railroads operat- ing in Mobile must use this depot for pas senger service. .'" ,"-

 That the said Injunction Issued by Judge A. A.

Defendants say that this court cannot nsurp Jurisdiction and then punish them for disobedience of such usurpation. Defendants say that said injunction fa also void because in said suit 1t is at- tempted to make the State of Alabama a. party defendant in an equity suit fin

Coffee Jackson of Birmingham, says an effort will be made by the Southern League to play baseball on Sunday in Montgomery this summer.
 The Birmingham News says:
 Will the Southern League play Sun day ball in Montgomery7 That is the scorching question of the hour. The adopted in Memphis Tuesday was Q biunder. and that the idea of playing Sunday ball m Montgomery is absurd. But a consultation of the magnates conn posing the crowd that adopted the sched- ule will show that the table of games was not made up without due consider ation. and that it is the intention of the City on Sunday.
 Coffee Jackson, Secretary of the Bir- fningham Association. who attended the meeting of the League in Memphis, stat cd yesterday that the schedule was based on Sunday ball iE Montgomery. and that it would be attempted just as 1t now stands. Before the opening of the sea- son, Jackson states that an exhibition games with some of the major league teams doing Eprirg practice in the South will he attempted on Sunday and would afford 8 test, case which would be ac- cepted by. tho Southern League officials. If the exhibition games were not inter- the date as arranged.
 If Sunday ball Is found impossible it is the purpose of the League to crowd the Sunday dates into double-headers each time team invades Montgomery.
 "As for Birmingham, Jackson states that the series can be moved back or for ward each of the three trips without playing double e-header. The sentiment of Montgomery Is strong against Sabbath sport" Ut '

In L. and N. Dividend is Again
 Predicted.
 The Wall Street Journal of the 17th says:
 "Unless a variety of predictions are all awry, the affairs of Louisville and Nash vile will interest the street very much during the coming months. The next dividend period of the Louisville and Nashville does not come until midsum- mer, but the old theory that an increase in the dividend rate Is due has been fe- vived. There is excellent ground for such a suggestion. It Is the opinion of many conservative men. in the financial district that the Louisville and Nashville dividend win be increased to per cent, at the July meeting. The earnings of the road are such as to warrant an in- crease in the dividend rate. but the con servatism of the management must be relied upon to determine when the proper times comes. Holders, of Louisville and Nashville, stock will receive the extra dividend, but in the meantime the earnest efforts of spectacular specplatofs to bet ter their position by forcing the payment in advance will not avail The speculative purchase of a big block Of stock In the hope of an increased dividend is one of the risks that operators. of thls kind must take"

For about five years," she says, "I had a host of physical ills that kept me an invalid and puzzled the doctors. Some of them thought l was going into consumption At times I was so weak that could not comb my hair or even wash my face. Then excruciating pains ran suddenly up my thigh and had to be carried to bed screaming in my agony. could not longer do my work and the drain upon my husbands purse was very heavy. I craved food but what ate only gave me discomfort. My liver was torpid, and of- ten had to be carried to the door for air to save me from suffocating.
 The worst was the pain which seemed as if my thigh were being pushed out of my body. The best doctors could do was
 to deaden 1t by narcotics. Once they
 thought I could not live for more than
 two days. When my husband was teie-
 phoning for the doctor to come in one of
 my worst attacks. a friend said; Why don't you try pr. Williams Pink PtIls;
 they are the only thing that has ever | helped my rheumatism?
