People in High Society Say Appendix
cltiS IL Vulgar Disease.
The fashionable valetudinarian Is
threatened with a distinct bereave-
ment. Appendicitis has been declared
to be bad form, and those who wish to
preserve a true social eminence must
on no account suffer from 1t. There
was time when only the educated sut-
fered from appendicitis, because only
the educated knew the anatomical posi-
ton Of the appendix, but in these days
Of vulgar equality even the washer
woman knows where to put her finger
when she is asked where the pain Is.
AS a result the supergllded must find
new disease into whose domain the
great unwashed have not yet found
their way.
An eastern scribe has made inquiries
from prominent physicians and the
worst rumors are confirmed. One great
authority admits that but few opera,
tons are now necessary, and that 1--WE
are glad to send our patients from the
surgical to the medical ward, where
hot lamentations and a milk diet are
prescribed"
A well-known nursing sister sait
frankly that appendicitis has become
UNREASONABLE, and she added unkindly
that fashions In the medical world VAR
as much as in the showrooms of a styl
ish dressmaker. A well-known surgeon
admitted that appendicitis has follow
ed the example Of all fashionable craze
and Is dying a natural death, and To-
no other reason than that the laundr!
lady has dared to initiate the duchess
Needless to say, am not alludinl

NEW DEFENSE FOR cElME.
Psychic Epilepsy Is the Unique
Plea

Plea.
DR.. Elmore e. Elliott of New York
has escaped the meshes of the law
through a unique plea. He had BEEN
arrested for brutally assaulting, with
out provocation a man and his Wife
on the public street. Psychic epilepsy
defined as acute epilepsy, without any
external manifestations, was the de-
tense successfully offered.
DR.. Elliott in his own behalf, testi-
fed that he had been subject to at
tacks of psychic epilepsy since child
hood, and that during these attacks
he had no knowledge of his acts or
recollection of them upon recovery.
Medical testimony was offered to
sustain this plea, and the prisoner was
discharged.
Lawyers who heard the defense and
members of the district attorneys
staff continued to discuss DR.. Elliott's
strange statement long after the ply
sician had left court. They agreed
that it's scope was practically limitless
and asserted that psychic epilepsy
would undoubtedly prove a successful
defense even for murder.
at is the best defense l ever heard
and the best defense in the world"
said Assistant District Attorney Turn
bull mo man could be held account
able for any act if it could be shown
he suffered from this strange disease

EXONERATE MILLER
TRIAL OF THE POLICE CAPTAIN
 ENDS.
Charges Preferrsd By Mayor Atkins And Motion TO Dismiss Officer Defeated by Tie Vote In
 Cosncii.
Advertiser Bureau,

Advertiser Bureau, Selma, July 27
 The trial of Captain of Police F. B. Miller before the city council Friday night on a charge of negligence of duty in the case of the arrest and death of the late Ralph Lilienthal was concluded late that night. The charges against Captain Miller were preferred by Mayor V. B. Atkins and the evidence introduced was about the same as that which was heard in the case against Police Officer Burfitt about two weeks ago.
 At the conclusion of the evidence Councilman Patterson introduced a resolution that Captain Miller be dis missed from service. The voting upon this resolution resulted in a tie and by such Captain Miller was exoferated of the charges which had been pre- ferred against him. The office which Captain Miller holds Is an elective of flee and it would have taken a two third vote of the council to have em- peaChed him.
 The exonerating of Captain Miller was expected by that officers friends. During the years which he has served as Captain of Police Mir. Miller has made a capable and efficient officer and his friends believe that he was acting in good faith and believed that Mr. Lilienthal was under the influence of drink when he locked him in the city prison.

Railroad Commission is
 Restrained. CANNOT FORCE [. AND N INFO THE UNION STATION State Must Not Attempt to Outlaw
 the Railroad. Judge Jones of Federal Court Specific ally Enjclns Omcials from Pro- cceding in Any Manner to
 Forfeiture of Franchise
 of Road that Appeal-
 ed to Courts.

Judge Jones, of the Federal Court, yesterday granted the Louisville and Nashville Railroad relief from inter- ference by the State of Alabama, pend- ing a determination of the application of the Louisville and Nashville Rail- road for an injunction restraining the enforcement of the order of the Ala bama Railroad Commission, compell- ing the Louisville and Nashville to re- ceive and discharge passengers at the Gulf Terminal Station in Mobile.
 In view of the fact that the order of the Railroad Commission does not take effect until October l. which is ninety days from the date of its issu- ance. there was no immediate neces- sity for a temporary injunction at this time to prevent it's enforcement, and it was decided by Judge Jones that briefs and affidavits on this phase of the litigation should be submitted to the court within thirty days from yes- terday and that arguments on its mer- its would be heard later
 That part of the Railroad Commits sion's ordeS, which required the Lou 1sville and Nashville. within thirty days from the issuance of the order to submit a report to the Commission as to arrangements being made for complying with the mandate, was tenn porarily enjoined by Judge Jones. The State is prevented from taking any steps against the railroad for failure to make such report to the Commis- sion.
 State Cannot Outlaw Road.
 But the greater part of Judge Jones's order is devoted to the outlaw" stat ute, which the Federal Court enjoins from enforcement in this proceeding. In recent opinion handed down by Judge Jones' he declared unconstitu- ffonal this outlaw measure passed by the present Legislature, prohibiting a foreign corporation from bringing suit In the Federal Court or remov- ing suit from the State to the Federal Court, under penalty of forfeiting its privilege to do business in Alabama.
 Judge Jones says the Louisville and Nashville Railroad shall not be penal ized or proceeded against by the State on such grounds, pending an outcome rolf the litigation.
 In other words. he grants the rail- road full relief from being hampered or presecuted. until the Mobile Termi- nal Station question is settled.
 At yesterdays hearing before Judge Jones, the Louisville and Nashville Railroad was represented by Gregory l.. Smith of Mobile and George W. Jones of Montgomery. Attorney Gen eral Alex NJ. Garber and Assistant Att torney General Thomas W. Martin ap- peared in the interest of the State
 After a brief hearing, Judge Jones issued the following order:
