FOR INSANITY.
X-Rays Reveal the Causes That Cause
Loss of Mental Faculties.

Chicago, January PAS the result
of a number of experiments with X
rays in this city it is asserted that the
rays are to become a medium through
which reason may be restored to in
sane persons. 1t has been found that
by the rays brain tumors responsible
for many cases of alienation of mind
can be located. Preparations are be-
ing made by several eminent physicians
for a test operation in what has been
considered an incurable case. The pa
tient will be a wealthy young man who
for several years has been confined in
the Kankakee asylum. The patient
has already been examined by the X
ray process. Those who conducted the
experiment say that the skiagraphs
plainly show a tumor pressing on the
brain. The physicians claim that the
removal of the tumor will not be dan
gerOus and that they expect the young
mans mind will be fully restored.

1t is said that when Sparrow, the
great juggler, who comes with Vanity
Fair" on Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day, January rs, 27 and %, to the Grand
Opera House, was a child, he was ever
tossing up his toys into the air and
catching them. Of course no particular
attention was then paid to this trait;
but the first time he a permitted to
see a juggler, he went into ecstasy over
the mans ~manipulations of different
articles, and it was noticed that from
that time he initiated all the juggling
tricks he had seen. From that early
age of seven years, he has been devoted
to it as an art. His combination of
comedy and juggling is certainly very
clever and his work is one of the feat
ures of the olio in Vanity Fair"

Plans for school Building.

The school board of Nogales district have received from Phoenix the plans for the proposed new school house, bonds for which will be voted next Monday.
 The building is to be of brick. with stone copings, two stories in height, with basement In the basement will be store rooms and a furnace for heating the structure with hot air.
 On the first floor will be four school rooms 26y32 each, one in each corner of the building.
 Two halls, forming cross, will traverse the building, with an en- trance from each side. The halls will be about twenty feet wide. On each side of two of them will be ward robes, while the space nf the other two will be partly filled by the two ,talrways leading to the second story.
 In the second story are four school rooms, immediately above and the same size as those upon the first floor. Between two of these school rooms is recitation room 22x32 feet in dimen sion, with sliding partitions separ- ating it from the two school rooms, by moving which the three rooms can be immediately converted into one large auditorium for exhibition pur- poses which will be 64x32 feet. The corresponding space between the other two school rooms in the second floor will be occupied by the princi- pals office and wardrobes, while a hall twenty feet h width will divide that part of the floor from the rooms de- scribed as convertible into aD audi torium.
 The plans are excellently arranged, and when completed the structure will be credit to the school district and the town of Nogales.
