Four hoys, >f ages ..pparenfy vaiyiog from seven to nine, were charged with moving rolling stock on the railway. Ah the boys dan* d the charge, but two oi them stated that Book, on? of their number, committed the offence with which they w'ere charged —The foil wing evidence was called by the police : David H. Brown said that when coming home from Church on Sunday Nov. 7 ho saw three boys tampering with the brakes of the trucks on the railway line. As the offence was of frequent occurrence, he ran after the keys, and caught one of them, named Kane, who turned informer to the police. <ne of the trucks had left the rails, and it took eiedit men to replace it._ If the truck had fallen on the other side- on the mam ]; ne ve>y serious results might have fo - lowed, as a special train passed through that night.—John Walsh sud that very frequently boys occasioned very great inconvenience by interfering with the trucks on the railway siding Sergeant Felton sail the gang in charge of that section of the railway had reported on the subject to the General Manager of Railways who bad requested the police to take action, ilie lad Kane said that on the previous day Rook had said, “Mind you come on my side to-morrow*, and blame it on iooley (one of the bovs charged).—lt was pointed out that neither of the two smallest boys, Tooley and Hgigins, were strong enough to lift the brake of a railway truck.— The Magistrate said that it was evident Book and K-ne were the ringleaders The eff nee w.vs a very reHons one, and In futut© any tuch charge won d df pnalfchcd henvilv.

Thousands give the most gratifying testimony. Bead thU certificate:-“2lth April, 1885.-Messrs Sander and Sons,—lt is with the greatest o pleasure that I testify to the excellence of your Eucalypti Extract. Having had in flammation on the bone of the leg, which came on after a severe attack of low fever, I was attended by Dr J. Boyd, who had made strenuous efforts to save my leg, but withou success. He then found it necessary to amputate my limb. Having heard in tin meantime of the wonderful cures worked by the Eucalypti Extract, I obtained a bottle, and the Extract had not been applied more than an hour when I began to feel greatly relieved. After applying the Extract every fmr hours for nine or ten days I was out of all danger. I would persuade all who may be affected with any such disease to give the Eucalypti Extract a trial, and I am convinced iliai mty wi'l find it the most wonderful of Msdioines.—Yours, &0., E. J.
