dramatic finale today when a jury
led by a Baptist preacher decided
that the husband, heir to the Duke

charges of indiscrctions and intoXi-
cation against the daughter of an
Indiana clergyman.
With the decision, Roy c. Barrct,

ceive $4,000 annually until rcmar-
riage.

YAGRANTS SHUN
Ell CENTRIC AND
ITS CHAIN GANG

Migrants, providers and that spe-
cics of men who don like to work
and won't, have evidently already
received the tip that to get picked
up in Ell Centre means a soiourn ON
the chain gang
That is the opinion expressed to-
day by chief Oswalt who started IA
convicted vagrants to work on the
city streets this morning under the
watchful eye of G. l.. Pennington,
police officer.
Night police officers reported the
railroad yards and other favoritc
haunts of those who are travelling
the country without visible means OF
support were without their usual
quota the past two nights.
Chief Oswalt stated today thc
drive on vagrantS was not to be
construed as an effort to keep out
the honest man who was looking for
a job but to protect the citizens
from those who were potential
prowlers, petty thieves and burglars.
Actual job hunters are welcome,
the chief stated. This type win he

not will learn how on the city

SEARCHERS FOR
SOUTHERN CROSS
ARE NOW SOUGHT

SYDNEY, y. :. W, April II. U.P)
With the safety of the four South
crn Cross airmcn assured today and
rescue parties preparing to bring
them back to civilization, anxiety in
creased for Keith Anderson and his
mechanic Hitchcock, who failed to
return from flight in search of the
trans. Pacific plane.
Anderson and Hitchcock took off
from Alice Springs Wednesday for
Wyndham, planning to scout over
the northwest wastelands for Capt.
Charles +. Kingsford Smith and his
three companions. No word has
been heard from them since.
Unless it is found the Sout thcrn
Cross is damaged or embedded too
deeply in the mud flats ON which it
rests to take off, no overland rescue
attempts will be made.
The terrain near the Southern
Cross is not suitable for another
plane to land, Captain Holden re-
ported, but the four men below sig
nailed eyes when he dropped them
a note asking whether they could
take off if fuel were dropped to
them.

On Spectators Gets Ace
On GridirOn.

WASHINGTON, April Is. U.P) --
An editorial criticizino ne conduct
Of Col. Charles \. Lindbergh during
his brief landing here yesterday APP
pcarcd in the Washington Daily
News, a Scripps Howard newspaper
today under the caption Colonel
Lindbergh Spashes Mud on Him
self. =
The editorial was in comment on
news articles printed in morning
papers here under headlines reading
as follows:
Lindy Splashes Admirers With
Mud and Water,' ''Flyer, Evading
Crowd at Boiling Field, Lets Propel-
Ter Guard Him. - The Washington
Post Headlines said Lindbergh
Sprays Mud on Admirers -" Dirty
Water Is Splashed on Big Crowd, In
Guiding Many Women"
The newspaper accounts said that
when Il group of persons, including
a number of young women, rushed
forward to see him after he landed
at Boiling Field yesterday, he start
ed up his plane and TAXED to the
far side of the field, the spectators
being splattcred with muddy water.
'The phone has been ringing fair
ly constantly since yesterday after
noon and our readers want to know
whether or not we intend to tell that
smart aleck where he gets off, > the
Daily News editorial said. 1.-The in
quiry relates to a thing Lindbergh
did yesterday afternoon at Boiling
Field. 1t seems he expressed his
steadily growing disdain for the
crowds that wait to worship him, by
manipulating his machine to throw
mud. He splashed reporters, pho
tographcrs and women tourists inn
partially, so it is told, in his un-
bridled expression of impatience.
We don t feel the least inclined
to scold. We would rather like to
take him alone for a quiet half hour
and relate a little of the human his
tory that we have learned, in the
hope that it night help to guide his
course and prepare him for the in
cvitable day when his popularity
will have turned to unpopularity,
1--WE would like to preach a little
and explain that one must resign
himself TO life as it is. People who
have warts on their noses learn to
bear their crosses bravcly and make
the best of things. People who have
become popular heroes should do the
same thing.

DESERTIONS AND

END OF REVOLT
Questionable Optimism of
Escobar About Only
Thing Left.

NOGALES, Ariz., April Is. (U,H)
Retreat and dcsprtion ciouded
the outlook of the Mexican revolu-
tion today.
Weakened by the loss OF two Of
its most prominent leaders and
facing retreat ON three sides, the
revolution appeared to be losing
ground rapidly.
General Francisco Manzo, who
against the government, deserted
the cause yesterday and entered
the United States. Later, Gilberto
NalcnzueIa, candidate for president
of Mexico and an ardent supporter
of the revolution, followed Manzo
into the United States.
General Manzo, suffering from a
serious illness, took temporary
quarters in a home here aud an
nounced he would leave soon foI
California.
General Francisco Borqucz, rebel
commander at Nogales, Sonora, all
nounccd Fausto Topete, who direct
ora, would succeed ManZo.
ManZo's desertion left the rebel
army in northern Sinaloa without
a leader and in disorganilcd re
treat. The Manzo forces, retycating
northward from Mazatlan, were re-
ported trapped by two fedora
forces. The second army WAS at
Oromino, south of Naeo, Sonora
while the third, the army Of Cen
oral Jose Escobar, commander in
chief, was reported nearing Aqua
Prieta, Sonora, in its retreat from
chihuahua City and Juarez.
Despite all his troubles General
Escobar pretended not to be d7s
cOuraged.
This revolution is not ending
he said, cit is just beginning.
Escobar, it was said, advocated
the execution of Manzo but was dis
suaded from such IN attempt BY

France Delivers Body Of
Dead Envoy To His Ma

Ii y ID " PRESENT
Famous Flyer Is Member
of Funeral Party AT
New York City.
By HARRY r. zANDER
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent


NEW YORK, april 13.-America
and France joined in sorrowful tri
butte today to Myron T. Herrick
whose body was brought home with
! the most solemn honors the two ma,
tions could pay.
In death, as in life, Herrick was
bond of affection between the two
hepubIics. AS his body lay in Il
flag -drapcd casket on the deck of
the French cruiser Tourville, which
carried it from France, diplomas
and army and navy men of both ma
tions bowed in reverence. The rela-
tions of $50 years, begun by Lafay-
, cite, seemed closer than ever.
An effecting tribute was paid by
/ Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, Ameri-
ca s FLYING hero. With the family
and personal friends of Herrick, he
boarded the Tourvile when she
docked before noon at the French
Line pier in the North river, and
stood bareheaded by the coffin.
Lindbergh stood there for two
minutes, his hands clasped behind
him, and swift memories of Her
rick s graceful sponsorship when
Lindbergh flew from New York to
Paris were evoked. Two years ago,
Lindbergh landed in the midst of
/ 100000 cheering Frenchmen at Le-
/ Bourget field.
After the Tourville was warped in
by tugs and the gangplank let
down, she was boarded by the dis
/ tinguished reception committee at
the pier. 1t included Postmaster
/ General Walter f. Brown, represent
ing the president; Mayor James j.
Walker of New York; French Am
bassador Paul Claudel; Assistant
Secretary of State Wilbur j. Carr;
Major Gen. Hanson, B. Ely and
staff; Rear Admiral Lous R. De
Steiguer, L. S. ~, and staff, and
other notables
/ The ambassadors son, Parmely
Herrick, and his wife were escorted
! aboard. Mrs. Herrick, who was in
Paris when the ambassador died, was
heavily veiled. She was escorted by
Mayor Walker. Col. Lindbergh was
with them.
Sailors Remove Casket
They stood by the easket a brief
interval. Lindbergh, dressed in a
dark business suit and carrying no
hat, stood with grave face and bow
ed head. His bronzed features were
immobile. Herrick had been almost
father to him when he landed in
, Paris, alone, in strange country
and without even extra clothes or a
{ hat.
After their tribute at the coffin,
Lindbergh and the other members of
the personal party withdrew into a
cabin and the official committee
came aboard
At 1870 the body was taken
ashore. Fifteen French sailors were
unable to handle the heavy casket
and were joined by three more, as
many as could get around it.
When the casket emerged from
the pier and was placed on a caisson
to be borne through the streets to
the grand central terminal, the Unit
ed States army band played "The
MarscilIaisc. -
About 80 automobiles carrying the
official party accompanied the ppo-
, cession. 1t was escorted by French
sailors, United States infantry, ma.
rines and cavalry.
