Special to the EVENING NEWs.
New Brunswick, Feb. 25-A drown
ing accident occurred at the College
Farm pond last night in which two
girls, Miss Barbara Schmidt, twenty
four years old of SO Henry street. and
Miss Edna Bantz, thirteen years old,
of Commercial avenue, lost their lives.
They were out skating with a party of
friends when the ice gave way and
they went under. Thomas Cleary, Jr.,
son of Thomas Cleary, the night bag
gao master at the Pennsylvania rail
road station, had a narrow escape, his
life being saved only through prompt
action being taken upon his rescue to
revive him.
The girls with Cleary and David
Strang went out to the pond early In
the evening to skate. The ice was
treacherous, having thawed consider
ably lately and commenced to crack
when the skaters got out almost into
the middle Of the pond. Before they
could get back to the shore the ice
gave way under their weight and all
four vent in. Strang managed to get
out and he threw his coat to Clearly
to aid him, but he made an effort to
save the girls.
Caught Around the Neck.
One of the girls caught hold of young
Cleary around the neck and he was
pulled down into the icy water. He
| could not free himself and was soon
| unconscious. In the mean time Strang
gave the alarm at the College Farm
and secured the help of John Gibson
who lives at the farm, and his son.
Some of the students at the Short Col
lege also assisted. They got Cleary
| out and started at once to resuscitate
him. DR.. A. Il. Smith of this city was
summoned and went out in his auto

the twelve indictments handed in by
the grand Jury yesterday afternoon
was n against Lawyer II. B. Cook
charging him with embezzling $3.50
from an Italian named Espisito who

banker there, and that this italian

Espisito lost it gambling. Lawyer

elo SAVING IN PENSIONS.
Method 70 Pay Without Vouchers
Would Benefit Soldiers.

Washington, Oct. ia saving, es-
timated at $1,00 900 annually to the
pensioners of the United States and
eventually about $3.50, 900 a year to the
government. is contemplated by a sim :
plifed plan for the payment Of pensions
without vouchers which Commissioners
of Pensions j. L. Davenport submitted
to the secretary of the interior in his
annual report.
I During the year $751; 1925, 160 was paid
as pensions, a6decrease of $3.4sS,15A
from last year making the total amount
paid in pensions since the foundation
Of the government 1920. 3S1 .73o. There
were 55,1s5 names dropped from the
roll and 1920 added, leaving a net loss
Of 1885 pensioners.
The total number at the end OF the
lear was ss2.0as. the smallest since
1892. Methods of economy resulted in
by $14o,546. the amount being $751;
1877. the lowest since 1882.
Commissioner Davenport's plan
which was devised at the request OF
congress and which will require the
assag Of a law. would greatly sim
plify the methods Of paying pensions
result in the mailing Of pension checks
on the date upon which the pension
falls due, eliminate h cost to the pen
sioners in a large majority Of cases
Of the execution Of pension vouchers
which varies from 81 to SO yearly: de-
crease to a considerable extent the
work in drawing and mailing of pen
sion checks, and eliminate the sending
Of 1000, 900 letters yearly thru the mails
saving about $4,000 thereby.
The plan contemplates payment d.
rect by checks mailed to the last ad-
dress OF the pensioner. Besides the In
| dorsement on the back Of these checks
the government would require certtf-
cation by " witnesses as to identity
In a few instances. Commissioners Dav-
enport said, vouchers still would be re-
quired.
The number Of soldiers and sailors on
the pension roll al h close OF the
fiscal year was 570.o50; dependents and
widows s21.642. and army nurses 406
There were 529.sS4 survivors OF the
civil war: 35.423 having died during the
wear. It Is believed that only about 25
per cent of the estimated 2.213,3s5 In
Iaiyiduals In the United States service
during the civil war are now living
the death rate Of he survivors being
now slightly in excess Of 6 pc cent
yearly. The average age of survivors
is now about 70 years.
