SHOCKING OCCURRENCE. BOY STABBED AT NAPIER. Napier, Sept. 8.
A shocking stabbing affair, which is likely to prove fatal, occurred this afternoon. Two boys named Hutton and Blom, neither fourteen years of age, had a quarrel in the morning, Blom getting the best of the fight. In the afternoon the quarrel was renewed, Hutton having armed himself with a stick and a large pocket knife which he borrowed from a comrade. Hutton 'first assaulted" Blom with the stick, and, when • the stick was taken from him, pulled out the knife and stabbed Blom in the abdomen. The wounded lad was oaken to the hospital, when the wound was iound to be so serious that his depositions were taken.
