4 Boston Boy Inhaled One and Had It

cent afternoon, one of tie operating
surgeons, DR.. John ". Elliott, showed
Globe man little child about three
wears old who had inhaled bean INTO the
lang, and on whom an operation was
performed for its removal The opera
ton has proved remarkably successful.
The bean, which was of the ordinary
size of a white bean, had been inhaled
into the right brouchus, and, as the
right lung was thus shut off from re-
ceiving its proper amount of air, the
danger of broncho-pneumonia with a
fatal termination became imminent and
tracheotomy was performed The in
cision, about an inch long, was made in
the rnedian line of the neck, and after
going through the superficial structures
OF that part the trachea was reached
and inciSed in q vertical line. The in
cision was made large enough to admit
a very long and slender pair of forceps,
which were carefully passed down the
trachea and into the right bronchus.
A short distance below where the wind
pipe divides the end of the forceps
touched the bean, which was firmly
lodged. Grasping the bean with the
forceps. the surgeon broke off = small
bit of the offending substance and with
drew it. Three attempts resulted in
getting only small particles. 1t had be-
come softened. and the soft part of the
bronchus had swollen and closed in
about it The next attempt was more
successful The fine teeth Of the head
OF the forceps buried themselves in the
substance Of the bean and with careful
manipulation it was extracted I'm

had explained to that functionary the
use of the burglar alarm, the fire alarm

put the cat and dog in the cellar and
had wrapped newspaper around the

then she was ready.
She locked the inside door and tried

Then she locked the outside door and

RIOTS IN BELGIUM.

Tradesmen Panic-StriciSen at Brussels -
Desperate Encounter at Another Place.
BRUSSELS, April 15.-The police made
vain attempt last evening to disperse
an enormous crowd outside the Peoples
hall. The crowd resisted stubbornly
and many workingmen We're wounded.
Great crowds afterwards gathered in
various parts of the city. Tradesmen
became panic-stricken and closed
their shops. Mounted gendarmes made
repeated charges on crowds in front of
the town hall and old Corn exchange.
Many persons were seriously injured
by being trau-pled under horses feet.
A mob in the Rue de la Violette eXtin-
guished all the street lamps and at
tackled the police in the dark. A num-
Der of shots were exchanged, and some
blood was shed.
During the rioting in one of the
streets Of this city the occupants of n
certain shop pelted the scndarmes with
wine glasses and tottles. A detach-
ment of the genda rmes ordered to ar
rest the inmates forced an entrance
into the shops, dealing out blows indis-
criminately with their rifles, while
other gendarmes stood Mt the
door and struck with their swords
those who tried to escape. Many
of the inmates received serious wounds
and nine were taken to the hospital. A
dispatch received from Liege this even
ing says that the strike there has
ended aud that all the mines are fully
manned.

KING ALEXANDER. mark. the regents,
and all the ministers of state were pres
ent as were also large number OF the
friends and supporters of the regents
For many months past the situation
in Servia has been critical owing to the
abuse of power by the regents and state
officials. Affairs had become so bad
that the king determined to take the
reins in his own hands. In accordance
with this determination, plans were Sc
cretly laid by means of which the
regents and the ministry would be
ousted without opportunity for oppos-
ing. Unsuspcctingly the cegents and
ministers attended the banquet and
while they were enjoying themselves
Mt the place detachments of soldiers
and bodies of police took possession OF
their houses and occupied the govern
ment buildings.
At midnight, while the festivities
were in progress, King Alexander pro-
claimed that he had attained his major
ity and that he assumed with the skupts-
china the government of the country.
As matter of fact he had not attained
his majority. According to Scrvian
law he does not become of age until he
is IS years old, and he will not be Is for
over year.
When the dcposed regents and minis
tiers heard the proclamation they were
dumbfounded. The king and his adj
visers acted with great promptitude,
and soldiers, who We're in waiting, ut
once placed the ministers and regents
under arrest and they were sent to
rooms which had been prepared for
them in the palace, where they are I'M
der guard.
The Servian army is loyal to the
king. Had it not been the coup detat
would not have been possible. After
the issuance of the proclamation and
before daybreak the king proceeded to
the barracks where the troops were
under arms and was received with
many expressions of loyalty.
The proclamation which was issued
everywhere in the country to-day bears
the kings signature. In it Alexander
declares that the constitution has been
in sore jeopardy. the rights of citizens
impcriled and the constitutional posi-
ton of parliament SO abused that the
king must end the unhappy condition
of affairs. He therefore declares that
he has come ii age and has assumed
kingly power. Henceforth the Servian
constitution acquires its full signifi-
canoe.
The regents have been dcposed, the
cabinet dismissed and new ministry
appointed. NJ. Doliitch is the new
prime minister.
MAY INVOLVE EUROPE.
VIENNA, April 15.-Thc situation in
Servia affords ground for the greatest
anxiety. 4 revolution there would
make breach for Russia, who. as
everyone knows. has always wished to
re-establish her influence in Servia.
Austria, on the other hand, could
not look on such change I'M
moved. She holds Milan in reserve
as last card. If the Russophiles
were to overthrow the reigning child
king. and Russia hurled her troops into
Servia on pretense of restoring order,
Austria would be forced to make a
counter stroke, war would be declared
and from Servia it would spread all
over Europe. France, too, would be
dragged into the quarrel, for IL y?culd
be impossible to prevent her from help
ing Russia.
