REMARKABLE CASE
OF MISS CAROLUS,
BlZEHAN GIRL
Carries Needle in Body Is Years;
Operation Monday Results
in It's Removal

One of tha most remarkable eases
in surgical avlals Of the Treasure
State is that Of Miss Margaret Car
Olus, a B0zeman girl, who for is
years carried In her body needle
which defied all efforts Of surgeons
to remove. .--
Monday morning Miss CarOlus, now
a nurse at the Murray hospital, Butte.
was successfully operated en- and the
needle, in two pieCcs, rusty and COW
cred with a mineral deposit, was re-
moved She is reported to be re-
covering, although she is not yet con
sidered out Of danger.
Thirteen years age, while Miss
Carolus was a pupil at the Fort Ellis
school, she one day complained Of a
pain in her back Examination by
her teacher revealed the head Of a
/ needle barely protruding from the
flesh. By the time a physician WAS
reached, however, it had disappeared
and efforts to locate it were unavail-
ing.
The needle then began a pilgrimage
that, during succeeding years, took il
to various parts of her body. At one
time it appeared near the skin at ons
Of her knees, but again, before sur
gical aid could be had, it worked bach
into the flesh. At another time i
was lOcate1, by means Of the X-ray
in her back and an operation was re
sorted to which proved fruitless. 1t.
presence from time to time in variOu
parts Of her body was manifested b.
pain and other physical disturbances
but the most skilled physicians wer
unable to remove it.
Miss Carolus entered Murray hos
pital as a nurse about a year ago
; Last Friday she was taken i'll wit
severe pains in the region of the kid
neys. A series Of X-ray pictures fl
ally reReuled the needle, (which hs
lodged in the right kidney. On Mon
day she underwent an operation an
the needle, which had broken in tw
and one portion of which, cOvere
with a stony deposit, had lodged >
the head Of the urinary canal, was re
moved.
DR.. Witherspoon Of Butte, who pei
: formed the operation, declared th
! case one of the most extraordinary b
had encountered in his many year
: of experience.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob CarOlus an
: Mrs. Charles CarOlus of BOzemal
S and Mrs. F. J. Olsen of Livingsto
were with Miss CarOlus at the tin
: of the operation and during the crit
q cal period that followed it. Upon r
= turning to BOzeman Thursday the
Y reported that she was getting alon
e nicely, but that she is not yet col

Death Turks in
power lines; KITE
FLYERS WARNED

With the advent Of the lzite-flying
season, W. II. Rief. manager Of the
Bozeman branch Of the Montana
Power company, has issued a warning
to children in connection with en-
tanglements of those playthings with
power lines.
It is natural, Mr.. Ref says, for
boys to tug and pull on kite lines
that have become entangled with
power wires, but the practice, he
points out, is. a dangerous one.
"When high-tension wires are
drawn into contact, a short circuit
results, the wires are burned in two
and the ends drop towards the ground
Automatic break-switches are pro
vided for such contingencies, but &
for any reason they should fail Il
operate, the wires would remai1
charged highly dangerous thing
for anyone who might unthinkingl,
grasp them.
''The Montana Power COMPANY
would far rather buy any boy a new
kite than TO have him endeavor Il
dislodge one that has become en-
tangled in its power lines. Childrel
do not realize the danger, and shouh
be warned.
