Walking or crawling through a
third story window of the home of
her parents here in her sleep short
ly after mdnight last night Carmen
Jean Vehrs, 11, daughter of Dr. and
Mrs. Oeorge R. Vehrs, 743 Stewart
street, fell 10 feet to the ground
below without apparent serious in-
Jury.
A badly bruised ana sunned arm,
believed to have been occaasloned
by striking a window sill or ledge, Is
thought to have broken the force
of her fall Into the loose dirt of a
bed of Iris.
Dr. Vehrs said today that no In
dlcatlons of serious Internal injuries
had developed, but that the little
girl was being kept under close
observation.
The first intimation the family
had of the accident was when Car
men Jean awakened them by ring

EMPIRE TRIALS
HEAVY BURDEN
TO TAXPAYERS
Efforts are being made by the at
torneys of Oliver P. Coshow, former
Justice of the supreme court, who
was indicted on a conspiracy charge
in the Empire Holding cases and
tried with a Jury disagreement re
sulting, to call quits on the case and
have no further re-trial.
It has been learned that they
have made an appeal to County
Judge Siegmund to recommend to
the Polk county circuit court that no
further trial of Coshow's esse be
had. It Is understood that Judge
Siegmund's recommendation was
sought to be based on excessive ex
pense to Marion county which is
paying the bills, although the trials
of the Empire cases are being held
In Polk county on change of venue.
Judge Siegmund has refused to
Interfere in the matter. In the first
place he states, It is entirely out of
his Jurisdiction, and declares he had
nothing to do with the matter In its
inception or otherwise and it Is not
within his province to in any man
ner attempt to Interfere or to make
suggestions as to whether or not the
former chief Justice of the supreme
court should be tried again.
The Empire holding cases have
been a heavy burden on the county,
already overdrawing the circuit
court appropriation and nearly sap-
nine the emergency fund, "inis I una
it Is expected, also will be overdrawn
when bills come in for the Jay
Stockman trial recently concluded
in which stockman was acquitted ny
a Jury. It is likely the ost of this
trial will be large enough to force
a transfer from the county general
fund to meet It

CIVIL SERVICE
BOARD BEFORE
COUNCILTONITE
The most Important thing before
the city council tonight, if the
council chooses to take the matter
up and not defer it for two weeks,
will be the election of a civil ser
vice commission as authorized by
the people at the recent election
when tlie fire department was voted
under civil service regulation.
An even half dozen candidates
for the three places on the unsalar- .
led commission are mentioned. They
are Lloyd T. Rigdon, Newell Wil
liams, Arthur H. Moore. Paul V.
Johnson, E. B. Orabeuborst and
Thomas B. Hill. Rigdon, Moore and
Orabenhorst are all ex-members of
the city council.
Whether Alderman W. D. Evans
will sit with tlie council tonight
had not been decided by Mr. Evans
during the day. He Is to be suc
ceeded by Adelbert S. Henderson as
soon as the latter qualifies for tlie
office, but Henderson cannot qualify
under the city charter until tlie
vote of the May 20 election is can
vassed, and It will not be oliiciauy
canvassed until towards the latter
end of tonight's meeting. This will
allow Evans to sit tonight if he
desires. It Is understood that Hen
derson will be on hand to swear
in as soon as the vote is can
vassed.
Not a great deal of business Is
before the council for tonight. The
most Important piece of legislation
will be the proposed modification
of the street bus franchise. This
has the' approval of the utilities
committee and probably will not be
strongly opposed. It provides for
30-mlnute schedules after o'clock
at night and on Sundays and holi
days, leaving the SO minute sche
dules for week days as at present.
