 o'clock the youngest child of Mrs. Mann, a coIored woman, who lives in the tenement block on Henry street between Orchard and County streets, fell from a third story win dow to the ground below, and was so serious ly injured that it died about three hours later. The child, which was playing near the window, the sill of which was quite near the floor, apparently reached out to catch hold of the blind, and losing his balance fell out of the window. Parties who were passing saw the child fall, and running to the spot picked up the nearly dead babe and carried it up stairs to the half frantic mother. phy- sician was called and he found that several of the child's ribs were broken and that it was otherwise injured internally. The little suf- ferer continued to moan piteously until death | relieved him of his suffering. The Messrs Blair, undertakers, very kindly donated coffin to the afaicted mother.
