TEETH CAUSE
Of INSANITY AND CRIME

Cleveland, Jan. 11.-Prominent GRIM
inOlogists throughout the country are
interested in the experimental work Of
DR.. Henry Upson, distinguished neu-
rologist of this city, who believes that
criminal instincts, as we'll as many
nervous disorders and even insanity,
are caused in numerous instances by
defective teeth. Dr. Upson has al
ready produced marked beneficial ef-
fects upon patients at the Newburg
insane asylum by simple dental opera
tions.
Arrangements have been made by
which DR.. Upson will during the COM
ing week begin experiments upon pris-
Oners at the workhouse.
The X-ray machine Is used to deter
mine whether the teeth or their roots
are defective. This test also develops
any pressure of the roots on the var
ious nerves leading from the mouth
to the brain. DR.. Upson bases his be-
lief upon the theory that insanity and
crime are correlated.
The series of experiments will ex-
tend over six months and the results
will be embodied by DR.. Upson in a
monograph addressed to the medical
profession.

CUT OFF GRADE
WORK STARTS

East Liverpool, Jan. 11-Rinehart
Brothers, contractors of this city,
commenced work this morning at
Smiths Ferry, Pa, on the Pennsyl-
vania cutoff, which is to be built
from the main line of the Cleveland
& Pittsgurg railroad at Smiths Ferry
across Columbiana county to anoth-
er connection with the main line at
Kensington, and eventually on
through to connection with the
Fort Wayne at Canton.
The job of grading on which Rine.
hart Brothers will commence work
terday is only small one, compare
lively speaking, and may have been
let by the company merely for the
purpose of fulfilling some sttpula-
tion in the deeds for the right of
way requiring that work be started
within certain time if the purchas-
es of rights of way are to hold. How
ever, it is evident that the company
still has the project in view, with the
probability that work will be In pro-
gress all along the line with the
coming of favorable weather. The

The rights of way were originally
taken up five or six years ago by
Col. Harry Frease, of Canton, for

company A low grade is secured
by the cross-country route, which is
said to be designed not only as a
more direct line between Pittsburg
and Cleveland, but as one eliminat-
ing considerable of the distance be-
tween Chicago and the East, which
is now the great desideratum of the
trunk lines. 1t will be used for
heavy, fast, through freight traffic,
as we'll as for passenger traffic, and
in time will doubtless become the
main line of the Pennsylvania
through this region.
