A Now Treatment furlnaanlty llluormil
by a Yuuus I'hyslclnn.
Cincinnati, Nov. 28.—Last February
Emma Schwerman, the 5-year-old
daughter of souud parents, residing at
Newport, Ky., was brought to the Cin-
cinnati hospital a paralytic idiot. She
had uo nse of hur limbs and lintl never
even recoguixeil her name. When not
quite 1} years old the bones of the skull
became finally hardened nnd brain de-
velopment was Impossible. There were
nine children in the family beside her,
a'l mentally normal except one.
The family physician, a bright young
man, iuduced Km ma's parents to try
trephining as an experiment. LaU
February, after some preliminary treat-
ment, a piece of bone somewhat larger
than n dime was removed from the top
of her head. The result has been almost
startling. The child has secured almost
perfect control of her arms, can move
her head at will, speaks u nttmlter of
words, knows her name and the differ-
ent members of the family. The lower
portion of her body And limbs remain
holpless And tho legs are little larger
than those of a year-old baby.
The surgeous are preparing to remove
another section of the skull. This time
n wedge- ha|ied piece will be taken out.
They believe with one or more opera-
tions the child's b iu will be given
sjiace to sufficiently grow so that it will
beaabrigbi aa thie average child. All
the effect* following each operation will
be carefully noted and preserved for fu-
ture reference, the idea being to find, if
possible, what portions of the brain con-
trol certain portions of the body.
The physicians will next operate on
tho 17-year-old sisfer of Eiuina. Her
body is perfectly developed, but her
tqitid is n blank.
Derides these sisters, two other pft-
tieula are being brought from Texas to
bo operated on. Those who have stud-
ied the present case believe that a very
Inrge percentage of idiota may be greutly
restorcd by tho trephining process, and
that a new field in surgery bus been
opened.
From tho t'nwual City.
new Oki-kans, Nov. 28.—A freight
train on the Illinois Central vallwiiy
went through a trestle at Buyou La-

wera wrecked, but no one was injured.
All the trains over the road were de-

Peoma, Nov. 88.—A very important
case to the cattlu interests of the wust
lias lieeu ou trial here for the putt two
weeks under tho title of Greoubut v*.
tho Illinois live stock commissioners.
Tho case grew oob of the condem-
nation of a number of .cattle urteotc|J
with lumpy Jaw belougjpg to tho dn
tillers' and aiUitt^ruvuiV uouipmy.
Greenhut of tlic distillers' company
bronght suit, to recover damages from
tin: livo stock commissioners with a
view to determining whether lumpy law
Is a 'contagious disease or not. Much
exis'rt testimony was giv- n by wittu - cs
on both sidea of tho ciise, iiil-ii of praeli-
cul o.x|>erienc« geiidi'ully testifying that
Iho disease was not contagious. When
the case was given to tho jury it
wrestled with tho ottcstiou forty-five
hours and then reported a disagreement,
the hibt vote standing seven to four in
favor of Greenhut. All bnt ono man
held that the disease was not contagious
and three were in favor of a compromise
verdict.
The attorney for Greenhut at once
gave notice of a new trial aud says uhto
will be no compromise until the statu
boil ml will desist from the slaughter of
lumpy jaw cut tie.
Thebusu has given rise to much Mfti r
feeling among cattlemen, as condemn-
ing lumpy jaw cattle means a Ions of
millious of dollars to their interests.
Cattlemen insist that the disease is
harmless and that the Illinois board has
overstepped the bounds of its authority.
