On Sunday afternoon 2 year old child
of Mr.. Korn, of Lone mountain, pushed
an iron staple an inch and half long
down the throat of the youngest child, an
infant about months of age. The staple
was pushed down SO far that Mrs. Kern
could not get it out and the baby seemed
to he checking to death. just then Mrs.
0. s. Warren and Miss Koehler, of Silver
City, who we're driving by, were stopped
by the cries of Mrs. Korn. Mrs. Warren
realized that the services of physician
must be had at once and took Mrs. Korn
and her baby into the buggy and drove
to Fort Bayard, a distance of five miles,
as rapidly as the team could be made to
go. The surgeon at the post and his as
sistant worked for about three-quarters
of an hour before the staple was removed
from the baby's throat. The points of
the staple were pointing upward, which
made its removal much more difficult
than it would have been in any other posi-
ton. The baby is doing we'll and it is
belle ved that twill recover.
