a NoUsE SWAT LO"".ED EY A Boy
A curious and very singular accident
happened to son of James O'Helan,
who resides OH Saratoga street,
Cnhocs, n. Y. It seems that Willie,
the Youngest child, bright boy Of
twelve or fifteen years ofagc, laid
down in The corner of the kitchen,
and being tired out from play, was
soon fast asleep. The flasher was
reading at Il table placed in the cen
trc of the room, the rest of the family
we're all in bed, and consequently the
house was perfectly still. Suddenly
Il startling cry came from the child,
which aroused the father, who made
Il rush for the boy and asked him
what was the matter. The boy clasp
eel his father in his arms, and with
starting eyes exclaimed, Gather, I
swallcd mouse, and feel him biting
me insidc!" In an instant the father
had the house aroused, and mess
engcr was sent for doctor, who soon
arrived and administered an cmctic,
which had the desired effect, and the
boy, after some terrible retching,
threw up the mouse, and, strange to
relate, the creature was alive and
active, and made his escape to 81 hole
in the floor. It appears that while
the child slept he had his mouth open,
and the mouse, which was a very
small one, got frightened by mus
cnlar action Of the child, jumped into
his mouth and down his throat; but
how he remained alive in the boys
stomach is mystery.
