 Selma. June IS. Near BurnsvilIe, about dark yester- day afternoon, Arsula Wiley. a negro woman, was run over by freight train on the Southern Railway.

He expected the woman to step from the track and did not slow up until too late. The pilot of the engine struck her and knocked her across the rails and the wheels of the engine passed over her legs mangiing them very badly
