BABYS HEAD OPENED THAT T MAY LIVE
Surgeons Supply "Soft Spots" Where Pre-NataI 0SSifica- ton Had Closed Brain in Solid Vail

NEW YORK, March IS.--An expert ment in surgery that may have far reaching and important results was made at the Cumberland street hos piesi in Brooklyn today on a three weeks-old baby. It may be that the operation has been performed some where. but the doctors Of the hospit al, which is a branch Of the Flatbush hospital. have not been able to find records of such an operation.
 Briefly, the operation is designed not only to save the life of the child, which nature sent into the world most severely handicapped. but to give the child the use of its brain, which na- ture has so far denied it. den cd it even the instinct of nourishment. The child was bonn microcephalous and the small cranium, normally ten der and 10 a degree plastic, has suf- fered premature justification. Because of this prenatal justification. which had given the small bra no chance to develop. the child did not even know enough to draw nutriment from its mother. and during its three weeks of life it has been forced to feed by the insertion of a rubber nip pie in it's mouth on milk drawn by pumps from the mother.
 Surgeon Initiates Nature.
 The Operat on of today was deter mined upon with the idea of giving nature a chance at an early date along her own lines. as the physiolo- gists understand them. In other words. 1t was determined to take this child at its tender age Of three weeks and open up it's skull after natUre's pattern in the normal child. that 's with the anterior and the .posteriof fontanelie (the soft spots) and the open suture between them. The op eration was performed late this after noon at Dr. Herbert C. Aliens clinic at the hospital.
 The child was etherized. The op eratiBg surgeon then made an incisiOn n the scalp and turned back a triang uIar fold of sufficiently liberal dimen- siOns to permit his further operations | designed to give the skull the open l ings nature normally supplies.
 Brain Has Chance to Grow.
 He then drilled an oriiice In the 1 bone sufficient to enable h'm to use l fOrceps. and with these made two somewhat triangular excisioDs In the ! location of the normal ~soft spots and connecting lane between them The hope is tbat by thus initiating nature the child's brain win have 2 chance 10 grow.
 The child w'thsiood the operation and was reported az doing well this | evening

DETECTIVE SPEAKS.
Tells Of Black Hand Methods and Of
Fight Against Such Criminals.

Owen O. Wizard of the Wizard de-
tectiye agency of Springboro, Pa,
made two addresses in this city last
week. On Thursday evening he adj
dressed the W. G. t. u. at the Presby-
terrain church. He told of experiences
N his life and of the work of fighting
vice and crime for twenty years; of
the dangers a detective is constantly
in.
On Friday evening he made another
address in the same church on 1.-THE
overthrow of the Black Hand" Mr.
Wards detective agency has had
much to do with fighting this lawless
society. From his remarks one
learned that few people know the
truth regarding this death-dealing
organization. In originality of con-
ception, centuries of operation, in
genuity of operation, organization and
base heartedneSS of methods, the
Italian Cammora OF Black Hand has
no rivals in history. AS an example
OF federated iniquity the world has
furnished no parallel. In comparison
the operations of the Bedouins OF
Asia, the Head Hunters of Africa,
the Mollie McGuires and the Klu Klux
Man OF thlS country SINK into lnSlg-
nificance.
No adequate idea exists of the i'm
portant part the Commora or Malta
has had in Italian and Sicilian life
Few outside the membership know
the truth. There are few, If any, men
In this country better qualified to
speak on this topic than Mr.. Wizard
When the work of these trained pro-
fessional cut-tilroats was most in evil
dence in lEe coal and iron region
tributary y pittsburg, and the local
officers Lad failed in their efforts to
gun She Williams to earth, T. c..
Cochran, district attorney of Mercer
county, Pa, called Detective Wizard
20 the job. He entered alone and
single handed upon a task which had
batfled all the officers of that section.
His success in the accepted mission of
oyerthrowing the Black Hand. has
made his name dreaded one among
the Italian criminals of both conti-
nentS.

OVERCOAT AND SUIT
CASE STOLEN
Attorney Fred Cenrich, While on His
Way to Superior, Last Wednes-
day Night, Has Lively
Experience.

Attorney Fred w. Genrich departed
from Wausau last Wednesday evening
for Superior and Duluth to attend 10
some important legal matters. Whep
he got on board the cars, he deposited
his overcoat and suit case on seat
and went forward into the smoking
car to enjoy \ smoke. On reaching
Eland Junction he hurried back 10
get his belongings, but to his astonish-
ment, they coald not be found. Reai-
iZing that someone had stolen them
he remembered seeing a suspicious
looking individual in the car when he
went in and hunting him up at the
depot, he accused him of the THEFT
and told him that if he would give
him back his grip and the papers con-
tanned therin he would not prosecute
him. The fellow strenuously denied
having taken his property, upon
which Mr.. Genrich arrested the man
and had the constable of the town
put him in Jail. Mr.. Genrich, with
the help of others, instituted search
for the missing grip and oyercoaL.
The former was found up near the
water tank, all cut to pieces and the
papers, various pieces of wearing ap-
parel, etc., scattered in every direc-
ton. Everything was found except
ing toilet set. The overcoat was
found rolled up and tucked in dark
place IN the depot. The man in jail
was confronted with all this, and con-
fessed TO having committed the theft.
He was taken to Shawano and we
learn was sentenced to term in
states prison yesterday. Mr.. Genrlch
borrowed another suit case and went
on his way rejoicing, returning TO
WauSau on SATURDAY..
