 It doesn't cost much to do an errand, perhaps. You are to be in town and can take bundle. You are to be near and can squeeze out ten minutes to take message into an office.

 It doesn't cost much to go around the corner after dinner and ring the doorbell of your sick friend. You can say that you missed him from business during the day, learned or inquiry that he had been i'll these three days, and, of course, had an in- forest to know how he was. The mere inquiry of itself will be worth more to the caged Invalid than his doctor s does. To go in and sit with him a half hour would be worth more. The cheery. healthful air of your presence is about all that Is needed; you had better assume that he is not very sick listen kindly to his narrative of ills I say it is worth much to him. But fl is worth incalculably more to you. For mark you, he will never forget 1t. He might forget it if you loaned him $1 900; but sick days call? Never forgotten! That's one of the ways to make friends.

road Commission, Attorney General Massey Wilson and Solicitor R. c.
 Hunt. of the North Judicial Circuit, filed a bill in the Marshall Chancery
 Court seeking an order to compel
 obedience on the part of the railroad company.
 Chancellor W. H. Simpson decided
 against the Railroad Commission, de- nying the order on the ground that the commission had not the power to com
 pei a railroad to move one of its de- pots. From this decision an appeal
 was taken.
 The counsel for the Nashville, Chat tanooga and St. Louis Railway contend
 that not only Is the Railroad Commis-
 sion lacking in power both under the
 constitution of Alabama and the act of February 2S, 1908, but that the or der of the commission Is in violation
 of the fourteenth amendment of the federal constitution. The contention
 in the latter case is that such an or
 der deprives the railroad of its prop erty by requiring 1t to move depot i from one town to another, necessitat- ing destruction of one depot and the
 construction of another, without hav- | ing an opportunity to be heard. It will be recalled that the order
 of the Railroad Commission referred | to is a repetition of an order issued before the last legislature. An appeal
 was taken from a similar process of law by the State but the Supreme
 Court decided against the Railroad Commission.
 In the appeal to be heard this week, however. the State claims that 1t has re-inforcements in the shape of a spe-
 cial act which was passed in 1903, pur- posely to confer the powers on the Commission which the Supreme Court
 held were previously insufficient. Counsel for the defendant railroad company alleges that only. the legis-
 lature has the power of locating and
 causing to be built passenger and freight depots.

This Interesting Question Is to Be sub- mitted to Supreme Court Today Tn Case From Marshall
 County,

Once more an effort will be made to establish the power of the Railroad Commission of Alabama to order de. pots from one town to another.
 This time 1t Is an appeal to the Su- preme Court of Alabama from the Mar. shall Chancery Court with hopes based on the special act of February 2S 1903.
 The appeal will most likely be heard by the Sumpere Court today or before the end of the week.

STARS FALL BY HUNDREDS
Special Policemen Lose Their Author
ity by Order Of Commits
sion

Through the action of the police COM
mission yesterday morning every star
held by special policemen in the city,
with the exception Of those employed in
the various departments of the NUM-
cipality was called in and the special
policemen relieved OF their authority.
Thts will leave the street railway COM
panies, theaters and other interests that
depend very largely on their special
policemen for their protection on the
regular police department for two
weeks and probably longer.
Commissioner Gates, who was respon-
sitle for the move, gave two reasons
for calling in the stars. One was that
many persons. who have been granted
special police authority for some special
purpose have left their places of en-
ployment and the reasons for which
they were given police authority no
longer exist. The other was that many
different kinds of stars are being used
by the specials, and the commission
desires to have all stars uniform.
There are 200 special policemen who
have full police authority, although
they are not on the payrolls of the
police department. A number of these
are employed in the city street depart
nent and some ether municipal
branches, but the large majority are
employed in some capacity by private
individuals and corporations.
Under the rules of the police COM
mission this is the limit of special
policemen who may be appointed and
numerous applications for the privilege
are received at every meeting of the
board. Until a vacancy occurs another
appointment cannot be made and the
applications on file are piling up at a
rapid rate. BY this last move the COM
mission expects to grant all reason
able requests and keep about twenty
stars in reserve.

Serious Collision on Maple
AUapnA

In a collision between car number
1893 and car number 102 of the Los An
geles Railway company, running on
the Maple avenue line, at the corner
of East Seventh and Maple avenue yes
terday afternoon shortly after 2:3O
o'clock, two women were injured and
the other passengers of the two coaches
badly shaken up.
Mrs. G. F. Marquard of 445S Walrath
avenue sustained bruises about the
body and suffered from a severe ner-
vous shock.
Another woman whose name is un-
known and who was quickly taken
from the scene of the accident is said
to have had her arm crushed between
the colliding cars.
The cause of the collision is said to
be due to a shoe which had been placed
on the track by boys. The rear wheels
of car number 1893 struck the shoe just
as car number 1O2 came around the
curve in the opposite direction. The
rear platforms of the cars were torn
away and the windows smashed.
