NEEDLE IN WOMAN'S
 WRIST SINCE G|RLHO0D
Plainville Doctor Discovers Article by Using
 X-Ray
lsneclal to The Heraldl.

Plainville, April 27.--A needle which had evidently been in her arm since childhood was extracted yester- day afternoon from the wrist of Mrs. Antoinetta DeRose of New Britain by pr. L. H. Frost.
 Mrs. DeRose called at the office of Dr. Frost on Wednesday afternoon, complaining that pain in her left wrist had made her hand useless and asked the doctor to make an examina- ton of the member. Dr. Frost i'm mediately took an N-ray picture of the hand and arm and told the woman to come back the next day and he would tell her if he found anything.
 When the plate had been developed, the doctor discovered that a needle, with the eye in plain view, was lodged in the back of the woman's hand, just below the wrist. When Mrs. De- Rose returned yesterday to the office, the doctor told her what he had found but the woman insisted that he was wrong and that he had gotten the pie ture of another hand mixed up with hers. The doctor, however, convinced the woman that it was impossible, and she consented to allow him to operate and extract the needle.
 Locating the spot, Doctor Frost drew the needle from the hand. It is of the small stitching variety, meas uring about two inches in length. Only about three quarters of the needle was left. the sharp point having been broken of.
 Dr. Frost questioned the woman. asking her to recall, if possible, any time in which she had plunged the needle into her flesh, but the woman stated that she had no recollection of ever having done such q thing. She said that the needle must have been in her wrist since childhood
 She had been bothered with the wrist for many months and had visit ed nine doctors in the state within that time. She said that most of them had been treating her for rheumatism. sciatica of the arm, or neuritis.
 Dr. Frost, in discussing the case this morning, stated that he has never at- tended such an unusual occurrence before. Sometimes, he said, he has learned of cases where a needle has passed through persons body, but it had always been intact and with a point. He believes because the point had been broken off the needle in Mrs. DeRoses hand, leaving the end blunt, that 1t was the cause of so much suf- fering on the part of the woman.
 Ant %la C., ,,4 nof thn randta was blackened, showed that 1t had been in the woman's body for some time. Mrs. DeRose said that the pain which had been intense had left her. and she was elated to discover that the cause of her aiiment had been removed for good

SABOTAGE RAMPAN IN OCCUPIED ZONE Five Bombs in Ruhr District
 Demoralize Traffic
 ATTEMPT TO RUN BLOCKADE
During Excitement. Germans Make Effort 10 Slip Quantities of Goods Past Guards Into Interior Germany. But Are Prevented.

Dusseldorf, April 2I (By Asso- c;ated Press) Hive separate bomp explosions on the Ruhr rallroads during the night cut railway tele- graph and telephone communicatlons' temporarily disorganizing traff'c. French headquarters said the explo- sions had caused most serious damage since the beginning of the occupa- ton.
 During the confusion the Germans made a series of efforts to run the customs barri,r into interior Ger many. but large quantities of goods which the Germans were trying 70 get through were seized by the French.
 Tracks Are Demolished.
 The explosions tore up sections or track and blew down the wires along side in each instance. In one case near Bomann a French troop train heavily loaded had a narrow escape. The explosions cut the line from the eastern Ruhr to Duesseldorf which is much used for troop movements and the carriage of supplies Four other

 Attempted Train Wreck.
 Besides these cases of violence, the French authorities report that an attempt was made to wreck pas senger train near Mayence by placing huge pieces of iron and steel on the tracks.
 The German efforts to run the French customs barrier into unoccu- pied Germany resulted in the largest haul of merchandise made since the occupation. The French seized six motor trucks. loaded with bolts of silk valued at 15,ooo,ooo,ooo marks that had just left the silk mills near vowinkel. The Germans claim a trap had been set for them in this case. They asserted a Frenchman came to them and offered for a con sideration to show how the customs blockade could be run along certain load left unguarded at night but that when the silk caravan they arranged to send arrived at this road a detach- ment of French soldiers surrounded the Germans and confscated the en- tire outfit.
 Much Goods Seized.
 4 truckload of scissors and knives and other fine cutlery from Solingen likewise was seized in the same manner in this district Thh con signment was valued at Too,o0o,o0o marks.
 Two trainlcads of goods also were seized last night while trying to run the gauntlet. The French at Apler- beck got ls cars loaded with coal and merchandise consigned to Berlin. while the Belgians at Glapbech seized a trainload of manufactured articles.
