HEAD IN
Child Taken to Hospital to Pre
vent Suffocation.
Boy Pulls a Kettlo Over His Ears In
Play and Efforts of Ten Phy3l- ,
clans Are Needed to Re
lease Him,
New York. It took physicians and
nurses In Bellevuo hospital more than
half an hour to remove an iron pot
from the head of Peter Szusca, two
years old. Young Peter was protend
ing that the pot was a hat, whon sud
denly it slid over his ears and noso
until tho rim touched his neck. Then
Peter began to yell.
His mother, Mrs. Jennio Szusca,
hoard tho cries reverberating in the
pot and ran into the room in which
Peter had been playing. Sho could
not seo tho lad's tears, for the pot
covered his face, and so Mrs. Szusca
thought at first ho was laughing. She
eald it was hard to toll whether a per
son with a pot over his head was
laughing or crying on account of tho
weird noiso that echoes from tho pot.
So tho mother laughed too.
When she thought Peter was becom
ing too hilarious she attempted to
move the pot, and ,it wouldn't como
off, and Petor yelled something that
sounded, in infantilo idiom, llko "it
hurts." Tho more Mrs. Szusca pull
ed at the pot tho tighter tho Iron mask
Beeraed to hold. Then she summoned
George Deyer, a neighbor. Deyer's at
tempts wero futile, and ho suggested
that a plumber should bo summoned.
Meantime Peter's wails began to
Bound llko stage thunder, and Mrs.
Szusca became frightened. Some one
was said to have sagely suggested that
Peter should bo taken to a cold stor
age plant, turned upside down and wa
ter poured into the pot; tho water
would freeze, and the pot would bo
broken by the bulging Ice. But Mrs.
Szusca said that the hospital was
the place for Peter. She wrapped tho
pot up in a shawl, and took It, with
Peter still attached, to Bellevuo. In
tho hospital Dr. Savok took mother
and child to a ward and tried to pull
the pot off. Tho pot wouldn't budge.
Several nurses came in to assist, but
tho pot was tenacious.
RELICS FOUND IN GOTHAM
Celebrants at Fraunce's Tavern Make
Interesting Discovery on Their
Way Home.
New York. A party of Sons of the
Revolution returning tho other night
from their annual Fourth of July
gathering at historic Fraunce's tavern,
were halted a few rods from the old
tavern by a series of streot excava
tions. Casually examining the heaped-up
earth ono of tho party noticed that
the material thrown up by tho diggers
was studded with reminders of old
New York. Chief among the objects
thrown out were many fragments of
tho old spruce water pipes that once
carried tho drinking water for the
city.
Near by wero hundreds of old pipes
of another kind, long "church ward
ens" of tho old clay pipe smoking days,
and probably reminders of many a
winter evening at Frauce'a.
Hundreds of oyster shells of a big
ness unknown today, wero also found,
and a considerable number of bones,
Bome of them having tho appearance
of human relics.
Colt Drags Boy to Death.
Cheyenne, Wyo. Bert Pearson,
twenty years old, was dragged to
death by a wild colt. Tho young man
was leading tho animal by a ropo
which ho had passed around his
wrist. Suddenly tho colt bolted. Un
ablo to check the animal or loosen the
rope, Pearson was carried off his feet
and was dragged at tho rope's end.
Tho colt galloped close to a telephone
pole, dashing the young man against
the polo and knocking his brains out.
IRON POT
-
"We'll have to get a tinsmith at
once," said tho physician.
A tinsmith wa3 not available. Then
a nurse suggested that soap suds on
tho pot's insides might easo it off.
Peter was placod on his head and suds
and soft soap was poured into tho pot.
The pot remained obdurate for half an
hour, but finally the soap had the
proper effect and Peter was released
from his iron prison.
Petor was nono tho worse for his ex
perience, and soon went to sleep in his
mother's arms.

a week-old boy, was crying lustily.
John McAree, a builder, of Corona,
