X.RAY TO RESTORE REASON.
New Aid to Locate Tumors That Press oil
the Brain.

Chicago, Jan. 25.-Recent develop
ments Of number of scientific expert
ments made with the Roentgen X-rays
have started members of the medical
profession in Chicago and other cities
and it is now firmly believed that this
wonderful invention is to become
medium through which reason may be
restored to insane persons. 1t has been
found that by the use OF the rays brain
tumors, responsible for so many cases
of alienation of mind, can be located
and in consequence an operation will
be performed this week the result of
which will be watched by many emf
nent physic ans skilled in the treatment
of mental dis asses.
Dr. j. b. Murphy will be the first to
undertake that which may prove to be
an achievement heretofore considered
as impossible as to restore life to the
dead. The patient will be young man,
the son of wealthy parents. who for
six years has been confined in the ward
for incurables at the Kankakee insane
asylum. The operation is to be the re-
suit of recent experiments in which the
patient was submitted to the X-ray
process. Those who conducted the ex-
pertinent say that the skiagraphs pro-
duced plainly showed the tumor press
ing on the brain which no doubt Is the
cause for the pitiable condition of the

Dallas, Tex, Jan. 25.-In the lower
house of the Texas legislature at Austin
a sensation was created by Dudley G.
Wooten of Dallas, who is regarded as
the house leader, introducing a resolu-
ton favoring Texas withdrawing from
the federal Union because Of alleged in
Justice and violation Of the states
rights through the policy adopted in
enforcing the war revenue law.
A short time ago Attorney General
Crane of Texas protested to Internal
Revenue Commissioner Scott against
the requirements that the official bonds
Of county and municipal officers must
have war revenue stamps attached.
Mr.. Crane took the position that this
was Illegal and an encroachment on the
rights of the state. Mr.. Scott ruled adj
versely. This ruling led to Mr.. Woot-
ems resolution. After a bitter denun-
citation of the federal government by q
number of members who took part in
the debate the resolution went over for
final action.
