Men On Board Train Bound For willcox County, Who Had Heard Debate were In-

By VIII T. sheehan.

Pineapple, June 15.-(Special Cor respondence )--In train crowded with excursionists who had made trip to Selma from Wilcox and Monroe to be present at the big debate pr. R. M. Cunningham made today the first stage of his journey through Wilcox eoun- ty.
 If the passengers who were aboard the train reflected the sentiment of this section, which three years ago was decided as Conner mad" a wonderful -evulsion of political statement has taken place.
 Tn the continued political discus sions and in the good natured badin- age aboard the train, it was manifest that Dr. Cunningham had more than a substantial majority of the crowd. The Conner men were challenged to make a test, Tn a poll of the voters on the train, but they declined the challenge.
 They freely admitted that most of the mer aboard the train were Cunning ham supporters. To offset his admis- sion, they offered to bet on the State election, this being their refuge from their disappointment at the outcome of the Selma debate.
 Cunningham Men Jubilant.
 The Cunningham men were jubilant. So great a victory, had not been ex- pected They had nor expected so great crowd or CunnlngHafH men, HoT Hdu they expected the enthusiasm which shouted down Mir. Conner while he was making his rejoinder. And this. too, In Dallas County where the whole county was being confidently claim ed for Mir Conner. No wonder the Cunningham men aboard the train were more than satisfied.
 This train of men, in the heart of the country that three years ago, was "Con,er Mad" the meeting of the preceding night, held in what was be- lfeved to be Conner county and which proved to be so enthusiastic for Cum ningham, are things which evidenced the great revolution that has been going on and is still going on in Ala bama political sentiment. If there was any doubt about 1t, the doubt was dissipated by the talk of the men aboard the train.
 Out of this talk there was continual ly reflected the change that was in progress In Wilcox and In Monroe Counties where MT. Conner three years ago received such an overwhelming g vote In such communities where an even break Is prophesied between Co., mer and Cunningham there is at the same time assurance that Cunningham Is making rapid advance in popular favor.
 Sam Erwin Converted.
 Sam Erwin, a prominent citizen of Camden was one of the ardent Cum ningham men aboard the train. T came to Selma Conner man.. an, going back a staunch Cunningham man. That's the effect the joint dis cussion had on me. That speech of MT. Comer's was enough for me. The man

Last evening Luther, the nine-year-old son Of
Clarke Gilbert, whose home is in Short street,
together with companion, was standing on the
bank on the North side of the c. and 0. track
throwing rocks into the river.
Shortly before o'clock freight train took

pass.
Young Gilbert says when the passenger tran
approached be passed over to the South side,
and caught hold OF the ladder, intending to
climb over the car in order that he might reach
his home. He caught the bar and thought his
foot was resting in the stirrup. Instead, how
ever, It was resting on the rail, and at that in
slant the train started, catching and mangliDg
his right foot.
Drs. Reed, Narrower and Brand amputated the
limb last night Just above the ankle.
The boy is handsome aud bright little fellow
and it is a sad misfortune that he should be
