This Woman a smasher.

Mrs. Thomas Woods, of WARSAW,
Ind, has begun an active war against
the saloons Of that place. Some
time ago she served notice upon the
proprietors of several saloons forbid
ding them to sell liquor to her hus-
band, who is an ex-county clerk and
prominent in the business world.
These notices we're uniformly disre-
garded, and a few days ago she
entered one of the drinking places
and smashed a costly mirror.
On Tuesday she went into Ros
seau's saloon threw hammer
through large mirror, and broke
the front window of the place. She
has not been arrested, and public
sentiment is in her favor. She says
she means to keep up her peculiar
style of warfare till the sale of liquor
10 her husband is discontinued.

Spd fn-vs-s-
An InvcstigntIS.2 .O " Wade OF ttfs
OFFICIAL Course In the Pension
Office.
A Washington special says; An In
yestigation was begun t-day into the
pension frauds Of which Commissioner
Tanner is said to be guilty. The first
thug Secretary Noble did when he
reached his office to-day was to issue on
order appointing Frank l.. Campbell OF
tho assistant attorney generals Office; DR..
George Ewing and II. l.. Bruce Of tho
pension appeal board, committee to
make n thorough investigation Of the
charges made against Commissioners
Tanner.
The three gentlemen were notified and
they Immediately repaired to Commits
sioner Tanners Office, where they In
formed him of Secretary Mobiles order.
Mr.. Tanner was exceedingly affable and
said that he courted full investigation
and would facilitate matters as much as
possible. he gave directions that room
should be given the commission and all
their wants properly attended to.
The work was begun Immediately, and
in less than an hour the three examiners
were up to their eyes in mass of PEN
sion papers.
They have work of more than ordi-
nary magnitude on their hands aud it is
impossible to estimate just how long 1t
will take. They have been instructed by
Secretary Noble 10 pay particular atten-
ton to the rerating Of pensioners en-
ployed In the pension Office and make o
full and clear report without regard to
whom may be hurt.
In addition to pension papers, each
employe In the department will be ex-
amined and there is quite dutter Of ex-
citement among the chiefs and the clerks
as to the outcome of the investigation.
The examination will be made of cases
coming before the commissioner Of PEN
sions for one year back and the commits
sion have the liberty of going even fur
Their back than that date.
Some Of the pensioners who are en-
ployed In the department have, since
Commissioner Tanner was appointed.
been rerated without application on their
part. Numbers Of these fortunate indi-
viduals were olassed $40 month higher
than they were before, and received their
back pay in full.
Secretary Noble il uneasy as to the
outcome of the investigation, but he has
ordered the commission to leave no stone
unturned that would assist them in max
ing complete and thorough report.
