X RAYS CAUSE INSANITY.
Robert Dixon Talked About Nothing
Else and Lost His Reason.

NEW YORK, March 7.-Robert Dixon,
twenty-nine years old. Of this city, has been
reading everything in the newspapers ard
scientific journals of late about the X and
cathode rays. He was a firm believer in
the new discoveries, saying they would prove
not only of great value to science, but that
they might mean life or death to mary
theories on the phenomena of heat, light and
magnetism. He spoke of the invention OF an
apparatus which would enable a person to
see in the dark and said 1t was a most
marvellous thing. For the past few days
he has talked of nothing but these discover
les. He acted ir a strange manner and to-
day his wife informed the police Dixon was
removed to Bellevue Hospital and placed in
the insane pavilion.

fatally and wounded six others more or less
seriously. Sykes lives in the Peru neighbor-

cause has incurred the enmity Of his Eeigh-'

underneath the statement that unless he left
Immediately he would be killed. Sykes de-
termined not to leave. and prepared to defend
himself against the expected attack. The
attack came Thursday morning about
o'clock At that hour a mob OF fifteen
masked men broke down the door and en-
tered Sykes's home. Sykes was ready, and
as the regulators entered he opened fire with
a Winchester rifle. Sykes fired as rapidly
as possible. and soon four of the regulators
were down and the others fed in terror.
Sykes continued to fire at the fugitives as
long as they were in range, and is confident
six others were wounded. Sykes tore the
masks from the four men who had fallen.
and found that they were John and Alonzo
Barnes. John Gililand and Dennis Driggers.
The Barnes brothers were shot through the
head and cannot live. Gililand and Driggers
were shot in the chest. and their wounds
are also fatal. Sykes Immediately came here
and reported the tragedy and swore out war
rants for the regulators. Officers went out
to arrest the members Of the mob. They
found the four men named dying and report
that six others are too badly wounded to be
moved. Nearly every man in the neighbor-
hood was hurt. There was a wounded per-
son In nearly every house. Sykes says he
