A Silver Quarter In the Esophagus-Starv-
alton Relieved by the Surgeons Knife.

GREENCAsTLE, Ind, March 12 "A boy
named Dodd of Roachdale, was brought
to this city last week in a terrible
plight from having swallowed a twenty
five-cent piece. The child was sent
with the money to store and put it in
his mitten for safe keeping, After re-
moving the coin he placed it in his
mouth while he drew on the mtten,
and the coin slipped down his throat,
lodging in his esophagus. This
happened on Saturday, the lst inst,
and, as he got no relief from the OBJ
struction, he was brought here to be
operated on. The doctors instrument
was broken in the operation, and an
other and more successful attempt to re-
move the coin was made on yesterday.
The obstruction prevented his swallow
ing any food during his nine days fast,
but he is now making up for the inter
mission. The boy is a ten-year-old
dwarf, and has suffered from diseased
heart since his birth.

"In England mustard is the great
