BIG HAT PREVENTS
GIRLS INJURY

TT. Wayne. Ind, Feb. 22.-Miss Ber-
tina Schroeder escaped facial disfigure-
ment and possible serious injury when
her head was thrust through one of
the large windows in street car.
sending the shattered glass flying in
every direction. Her escape was due
to the fact that she wore a big hat.
The car on which Miss Schroeder
was passenger was crowded, and
many persons were standing in the
aisle. The car rounded curve so
sharply that many of the passengers
standing lost their equilibrium. Two
or three of them lurched over against
Miss Shredder and her head was fore
ed through the window Showers of
glass fell about the young woman. but
the protection of the big hat enabled
her to escape injury. The millinery
creation. however. was ruined, and
It Is probably up to the street railway
company to supply Miss Schroeder
with new spring hat.

An INDICTMENT Of
BOSS GEORGE COX
Charge of Perjury Returned
Cincinnati Politician
Gives a Bond.

Cincinnati. Feb. aas-Georse b. Cox,
Republican, leader of Hamilton coun-
ty anu well known as an important
factor in state and national politics,
was indicted yesterday by the Hamil-
ton county Grand Jury on the charge
of perjury. Mr.. Cox received the
news at the office OF the Cincinnati
Trust company. of which he is presf-
dent, and went at once To the court
house. where he gave bond In 81 ,eea
for his appearance when trial is call.
ed
The indictment alleges that he COM
mitted perjury on March II, 1906 when
he appeared before the January term
of the grand jury of that year and de-
MED that he had ever received any
portion of the requisites or interest
gratuities which for many years banks
had paid to county treasurers for the
use of money left on deposit with
them. From the fact that former
Treasurer Gibson had been instructed
by the court Monday to answer Ger
tain questions propounded to him by
the present grand jury the Inference
is drawn that Mr.. Gibsons testimony
was regarded by that body as suffi-
cient to warrant Mr.. Coxss indictment
on the charge of perjury.
Dramatic incidents attended the
presentation of the indictment in the
courtroom, but the sensation that or
dinarilly would have been produced by
individual had been largely discounts
ed by persistent rumors of such ac-
ton.
When he returned to his office ut
the bank Mr.. Cox dictated statement
reiterating the truth OF his testimony
Of 1906 and expressing his view OF the
proceedings OF yesterday. He seem
ed especially hurt that attack should
have been made on his veracity. de-
claring that more than anything else
he had always prided himself of being
a man of his word.

HE WOULD REDUCE
OFFICIALS WAGES
Rep. Wise Enters Bill on the
Theory that Party Econo-
my Begins at Home.

Indianapolis, Feb. 22.-On the the
CRY that Democratic economy should
begin at home Representative Wise
Tuesday introduced a bill In the house
changing the method Of paying state
onicials, which would result In a big
saving to the state. The bill fixes a
sum for each Office out Of which the
incumbent Is TO pay his help, retain.
ing the remainder for himself. Ten
omces are affected and in every case
tho amount named In the bill is less
than Is now appropriated for those Of
Sees.
The salary for the governors Office
IL hxcd at $4,000. which is $1,000 less
than the chief executive and his as
sistants now receive. The biggest re-
duction IL made In the auditors Office
where the salaries now total $42.560.
Representative Wise thinks the of.
fec could be $4,000.
The bin allows $4,000 for the secre.
tary OF state, whose office now uses an
appropriation OF $12.S40.
The treasurer OF state whose Office
now uses $12,700 would only have
1000 with which to pay himself and
deputies.
The appropriation for the attorney
generals once would be reduced from
$4,000 to $4,000 under the bill and
the clerk of the supreme and appellate
courts would get $4,000 instead OF
3lO.8SO as at present. For the report
er Of the supreme and appellate courts
the appropriation would be cut from
$4,000 to $4,000.
struction who now uses $500 would
DO compelled to get along with only
$4,000 and the state geologist would
DO reduced from $500 to $4,000. The
state statisticlan would only have
200 to run his department.
Representative Wise says the bill
In his own idea. He believes state Of.
hces should be provided for In the
same manner as are county Offices.
