A BOY BADLY INJURED.

A BOf BADLh
Another boy was yesterday injured near the
New Cut road shaft by the rolling on his feet
q some Of the huge stones blasted from the
underground tunnel during its construction.
Charles Hoskins is his name and he was out
cunning. Desiring to make short cut over
the branch that runs beneath the culvert he
attempted to climb over the great pile, but had
gotten only half the way up when the stones
beneath his feet became displaced and he roll ed
down to the bottom, his gun, loaded breech-
loader, in his hands. Luckily it did not go off.
but the unfortunate boy had his feet crushed
SO badly that it was with the greatest difficulty
his companion, who was some distance off at
the time Of the accident, assisted him to the
road, where gentleman in q buggy lent his
hand and fix" and brought him to his home
in an alley back of Water street.

dered by the choir and the congregation filed
the body OF the church. In the afternoon the

Jacques st. Cere" telegraphs the following
interesting facts from Paris to the New York
Herald relative to the obligations Of the differ
ent members of the triple alliance in case Of
war:
According to trustworthy information, by the
terms Of the alliance binding Italy to her Ger
man and Austrian neighbors, in the event OF a
conflict between France and Germany. Italy
would be compelled to mobilize 200, 600 men
without delay in the Alps, to mobilize her
fleets, to make . naval demonstration off Cor
sica and to lombard the Algerian seaboard.
In case Of war breaking out between France
and Italy Germany would mobilize the eighth,
fourteenth and fifteenth army corps Of Alsace
and Baden aud hurl them into the Vosges.
The engagements binding Austria and Italy
are less precise and Of q wholly diplomatic ma
ture.
The Austrian feet would only 20 to the as
sistance of Italy if the statu quo we're disturbed
