Well Stopped Flowing.

One of the most popular bored wells in the city of Selma was what Is known as Martins well on Broad Street, just across the railroads beyond the depot. This well had fiow of about an inch and a quarter to an inch and half and hull dreds of people in that part of the city have been going there for years to get water.
 It was flowing as usual yesterday. just like it has been doing for many years, but this morning not a drop of water WIS flowing from the spout. This water was soft and had very little minerals in 1t, and on that account was most desirabie as drinking water. A great many washer women in the neighborheed also got wa ter from 1t for washing purposes, claim ing that 1t was softer than the hydrant water and was preferable.
 John Bixler is now engaged putting down a six-ineh well at the Buckeye Oil Mills, which is less than half a mile west of Martins well. He struck overflow wa ter at a depth of about 250 feet, but the stream was not large enough and he paid no attention to this first stream, but kept on down until he could strike a big stream. He succeeded day or so ago and now the we'll at the Buckeye oil Mills is flowing a stream of about 800 gallons per minute.
 It is thought that the stream that has been feeding the Martin we'll found an outlet into the one that commenced to flow in the big Buckeye well and changed its channel and now flows out through it instead of the former channel. Others are of the opinion that it may be the Elkdale well, three-quarters of mile to the north, or the big Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans we'll a>half mile to the east that has stopped the Martins well stream, and caused 1t to cease to flow. But the most plausible theory Is that il was the Buckeye well, which commenced to flow only few days ago, that has done the work.
 Whatever the cause. it gives those whc have made a study of underground streams a fine field for speculating on the reasons that caused the well to cease to flow.

ACCIDENT TO MIR. RUDULPH.
Arm. Caught in Gin and Will Be
 Amputated.

Pleasant Hill, Oct. O.-(special.) )-Yes- terday about1l o'clock R. B. Rudulph had the misfortune to have his hand and arm severely cut in his large gin. His hand got caught in the saws, and was cut into fragments as was his arm half way to the elbow.
 pr. Riggs, whose oIIice is just across the street from the gin, was summoned immediately and had 1t not been for the doctor being so near, MT. Rudulph would have died before medical assistance could be obtained. A Montgomery surgeon has been summoned to help pr. Riggs and 1t Is thought that ampuation will imme- diately follow the consultation of the doc tors.
 Mir. RuduIph's home is in Livingston, he having moved there from this place about twelve months ago. He has quite large farming and mercantile interests here. He and his wife came here yes terday on a visit to Colonel Rudulph. his father.

Dr. Pitts Resigned.

Aas. just leaked out that an interest i'm episode took place in the meeting of the Dallas County Medical Association at It's last meeting.
 Dr. Pitts. as president of that organiza- tion. Is also Health Officer of the County. He has been urging the city officials to force the residents of the city to connect their premises with the sewers of the city. There are several hundred residences not yet connected.
 On account of the city not forcing these parties to make connections Dr. Pitts rendered his resignation as President of the Association; giving as his reason that he could not enforce the laws of health without the cooperation of the city au- thorities.
 The Board, while sympathizing with Dr. Pitts in his efforts to enforce the law, declined to accept his resignation. It Is said that some very warm speeches were made, but as the session was an execu- tive one. the physicians reuse to discuss the matter.
 representative this morning. absolutely re- an opinion.
 It is evident, from what has transpired. that there Is a lively war on between the doctors and the city officials The Coun- cilmen say that there is a law on the statute books and it is up to the execu- tive department to enforce the law. All that Dr. Pitts would say is, that certain newspaper articles. published in the local press, were overdrawn and misleading, and that a mountain had been made out of a molehill. But 1t is expected that there will be some new developments along this line.
 It is said that the Board of Health has been making some quiet investigations on its own account and that it has the name of every property owner in Selma who has not connected with the sewers and that these names are booked for publiea- ton.
 In spite of this, it Is said that the health of Selma has been better during the last sur ner than ever before In history of the city. But the doctors want to force every one to connect with the sewerage system of the city, believing that the death rate of Selma Will De greatly diminished thereby.
