THERE WAS a wild scramble
at the Brownsville municipal air
port Saturday when Colonel
Charles Lindbergh flew in with the
first Mexican air mail.
When the crowd finally dis
persed, that area over which they
rushed to him in the plane looked
like a section of a battlefield.
Torn programs, handkerchiefs.
and a much-trampled hat dotted
the path of the crowd.
Spectacles, smashed by hurrying
feet, were found ground into the
dust.
One of the most tragic finds was
the remnants of a set of false
teeth, broken into several pieces
and scattered along the path of the
rush.
1T IS PRESUMED that some in
dividual cheered well but not wisely,
the force of his vocal enthusiasm
being sufficient to expel his false
teeth.
In that crowd it was impossible
for him to retrive his lost masti-
Gators.
Hundreds Of feet had passed
over them before the force of the
tide subsidized.
1t was the only serious casualty
Of the day.

CANADIAN DRY CRITIC
STIRS COAST GUARD
Ontario Customs Collector Is Told
Niagara River Is Not in Ships
Patrol Territory.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BUFFALO, N. Y, May 25-A Cana
dian customs collector. whose letter,
written year ago. criticizing American
officials as lax in checking rum running
on the Niagara River, was read recently
in the House of Commons, declared to-
day he referred not to American Gus
toms men, but to the Coast Guard.
This statement led Lieut.. Martin w.
Rasmussen, in command of the Coast
Guard in this district, to issue q denial
Of the charges.
In answer to Frank T. Pattison, COL
lector of customs of Bridgebufg. Ont,
Lieut.. Rasmussen said the patrolling Of
Niagara River was not handled by his
men.
Asked as to the charge in his letter
that a bootlegger had told members Of
his staff that members Of the American
dry squad" had helped him unload his
boat, Pattison said he had been told the
officers referred to were Coast Guards
men.
"All can say Is that Mr. Pattison is
Ill informed" Lieut.. Rasmussen said.
THE Coast Guard has nothing to do
with enforcement of liquor laws on the
Niagara" Rasmussen continued. I'VE
work only on Lake Erie and In Buffalo
Harbor. Nor we're we working the Nj
agara year ago"
Mr.. Pattison said today he had the
highest regard for American customs
officials and that they we're doing their
best to enforce the law"

NEW HEARING SOUGHT
IN De KING Staying
Illinois Legislators, Closing Their
Inquiry, Favor Selection Of
New Prosecutor.
~ the Associated Press.

4y the Associated Press.
AURORA, Ill, May 25.-The State
legislative investigation into the Staying
Of Mrs. Lillian De King by dry raider,
two months ago, was completed today.
Several members of the committee said
emphatically that conditions In the
county, as revealed by their inquiry,
needed changing.
It appeared that an immediate result
Of the legislative inquiry would be the
filing of a petition in Circuit Court for
the appointment of special prosecutor
to reopen the grand jury investigation.
Attorney Albert j. Kelly, representing
the De King family, was advised to file
such a petition and said he planned to
do so next week.
The first grand Jury returned only
one indictment, one for perjury against
Eugene Boyd Fairchild, the investigator
who swore falsely to the warrant on
which the raid was based.
The committee learned that Carbary'S
Investigators had spent $4,000 since he
took Office last December 4. Their ex-
penses, as itemized for the county
auditor, included horse racing bets,
cigarettes and cigars and incidental items
which the committee inferred might in
clude the entertainment OF women.
Auditor Fred Butke, however said Car
bary's Office had collected $4,000 in
fines and forfeitures since he took
charge.

day kept her word, taking three of her
children in death.
The mother, Mrs. Mamie Shey Shoaf,
was found dying in a cemetery here TO-
day, and near her were the bodies OF
Tom, Q; Ina, T. and Catherine, II, her
children, all with Threats slashed. The
mother apparently had killed the chill
dren, then cut her own throat. She died
soon after being found.
Groans coming from under tar
psulin in the cemetery led two colored
youths to find the dying woman. She
pointed weakly to field nearby, where
the bodies of the children were found.
Mrs. Shoaf was the wife of Carey
Shoaf. lumber company employe. The
couple moved here from Lexington, Ind,
II years ago. There are four more chill
dren, ranging in age from IL to IT years.

Gently made a 4,ooo-nile archaeological

To be lost In the desert-for awhile the
party did get lost, but it managed to
get back on its course again-meant
the danger of running out OF fuel,
which in turn meant the peril Of at
