CURIOUS THINGS IN HIS

Baltimore Sun.

Baltimore Sun.
A remarkable operation was per
formed on the little son of Joseph
DOward, proprietor of the Salisbury
Marble works, hy DIR. G. III. Cantwell
Of Wilmington. Del. one day last
week. For some time past the boy
had been troubled with restlessnes So
which could not he accounted for.
and at night he would awaken his
parents by the most fearful shrieks.
Nj edicine was given for the removal
Of tape worms, and the hoy was
relieved of tape worm measuring
l8 feet. Still his restlessness did
not cease and he was taken 10 Will
mington, where the surgeon took
from the boys stomach seven reptiles
resembling scorpions. Some of them
were dead and some alive. the others
having been killed lay the use Of cleo
tricity. The reptiles are about as
large as the end of the thumb of a
man and about an inch long. They
are perfectly formed and have the
usual head and tail Of the scorpion
When taken out they were fastened
on to huge tape worm. Physicians
say there is no such case on record
The largest of the reptiles is ON exhi-
bition at drug store in Wilmington.
The boy seems much improved AMI is
bright and lively as ever. Tie doc
tors cannot account for the appear
ance of the reptiles in the boys stom-
ach EXCEPT on the hypothesis that he
drank the eggs while drinking from Il
stream. 1t is thought by some that
the so called scorpions may be what
are commonly Enown as spring
cleaners" little reptile resembling
scorpion, seen in almost any spring.
