Martin Moore, lad about IA years
Of age, had one Of his hands badly
crushed by the cars in the yards near
this city two or three days ago, and
this morning It was supposed that
amputation Of the wounded hand
would be necessary. 1t We have
been correctly informed the boy was
playing brakeman when he received
the injuries which may main him for
life.

men. The wou.d is considered very
serious by DR.. Hinsey. the attendant

Tetsr, who had one of his legs fear
fully injured by rsilrosd tie falling

Of his father in this city, Friday last.
It 10 said that he is in . precarious
condition. His physicians, Messrs.

hand.
Kiser & Pierson have been, to-day,
trying the machinery in their oat
meal mill. The kiln 10 completed and
the machinery to it was put in motion

needed. They will commence this
