It is in Starr County, just west of Rio Grande City, on a large tract of ind being developed for cotton, fruit and truck farming. Its name was announced today by promoters of the development. more, directly over Wilmington, Chester, Philadelphia and Trenton, and thence across New Jersey to New York.

Over lower Long Island, the pilots spied Lindbergh returning from. Mitchel Field, now in an Amphibian. They turned, and followed flying: at a much greater altitude. In the narrows, the newspapermen watched Lindbergh's plane alight in the water while craft of all kinds turned in his direction, leaving long lines of white wake, like the spokes of a great wheel whose hub was Lindbergh's plane. That was all the newspaper men saw of the flier, their planes turning directly to Mitchel Field, where they alighted.

LINDBERGH IN DASH FROM WASHINGTON (Continued from First Page.) that that was Lindbergh, who, unable to fly his own ship, had taken to the air in an army pursuit plan-e. The reporters were whisked away into the air in a trice, making for the rapidly receding plane of the famous tlier, but it was to no avail.

Viewing the great spectacle for the fraction of a second, she bowed. A half smile, a timid wisp of a smile, played across her lips. She waved a gloved hand and aat down.

The crowd roared Its approval and the aon, proud of her, btamed. Mrs. Lindbergh arrived' In New Torli from Washington at 8:05 o'clock in the morning. Traveling In a private car, she was received by MaJ. "William F.

Deegan. for the- Mayor's Committee, and then was driven to the apartment of Harry II. Frazee at 270 Park Avenue, where she and her aon are to live while in New York. There the reporters found her. If they had hoped to overwhelm her reserve by their numbers or their persistence they were disappointed.

She smiled at them and then parried their questions. Would she like to fly with her son, they asked. Well, she had flown with him a good many times but hadn't hopped across the Atlantic. Could Bhe pilot a plane? Yes, she could, but not very well. Had she wanted her Charles to become an aviator or bad she made other plans for him during his boyhood.

As for that well, they had better ask Juim. Did she, want to fly to San Diego with him? She hadn't been asked. Did bring her anything from Europe? If he had, she hadn't seen To Go On Teaching. And then: "Will the historic flight of your son have any effect on your teaching plans?" "I have signed my contract, this unassuming mother. The interview was over.

Pelting for an hour or so in tne apartment. Mrs. Lindbergh was joined hv Mrs Walker, wife of the Mayor, and the two drove to City Hall. "It's Lindv's mother," the crowd derided as tha automolnlo bearing the two women turned out of Broadway into Citv Hall I'laza. And a great cheer went up as Mrs.

Lindbergh, a bit bewildered, it seemed by the magnitude of it all, alighted bearing a big bunch of American beauty! Taking Mrs. Lindbergh from the crowd before it had had more man a glimpse of her, Mrs. Walker led the way into the hall where the aviator's mother was presented to the Mayor. She remained In his office, chatting and resting, until it was time to start for -the battery. The throng on Bowling Green gave her a prolonged cheer, too.

As she turned to look back at the Broadway Canyon, smothered in bunting and ticker tape, the realization of what mfphty New York was doing for her boy seemed to come over her and she said: This la simply wonderful marvelous! I cannot express my appreciation. DRIVER OF CAR THAT KILLED CHILD HELD Funeral services for George C.

(Continued from First Page.) the four men succeeded in crossing the yard to where Markgraf's automobile was parked. Staleski forced the Sheriff Into the driver's seat, with a pistol pressed against the Sherfff's side.

Rizzo and Duschowski climbed into the rear seat. Police arrived just as the Sheriff was being forced Into the automobile. Fearing they might shoot the Sheriff, as the convicts used him as a shield, they withheld their fire. The policemen ran to the front of the jail and brought the guards to the back gatee. Together they waited In ambush outside the jail gate as it creaked open and Sheriff Markgraf, desperately stalling for time, drove his big sedan slowly through.

As the car cleared the stockade a volley crashed. One bullet tore its way through the shiny back of the automobile and found its mark between Staleski's shoulder blades. He slumped just as a hail of bullets hit the car, the guards firing from either side, but carefully, to miss the Sheriff. Nevertheless the Sheriff tonight pointed to bullet holes in his hat as evidence of the narrowness of his escape. Attempt Made At Lynching.

After the second crash of gunfire, Duschowski, Schader and Rizzo lifted their hands in surrender, and the Sheriff signaled to the guards to ease firing. He reached into the back seat and collared Schader and Rizzo. Other hands snatched Dus chowski and Staleski from the machine and the four were herded back into the stockade, but not before 200 men tried to seize them and lynch them. Duschowski, who still showed a willingness to fight, was severely mauled before he was subdued and rescued from the crowd by other guards. In the excitement Schader and Rizzo escaped again.

Rizzo tried to fight his way out in a final desperate bid for liberty. Jailor Leo Land, firing from a window in the Sheriff's home, sent a pistol bullet through Rizzo's head, at the same time E. A. O'N'eill, motorcycle pblicemaji, sent i bullet into his body. O'Neill stood upon the scaffold as he fired.

Schader had better luck and lost himself in the crowd. He was not missed until Staleski, Duschowski and Rizzo had been taken back into the jail. At first it was believed he had gone to the roof to hide until darkness, but a search proved he was not there. Rizzo never regained consciousness and died within an hour. Staleski was very weak from loss of blood, but prison physicians expressed "fear" he would live.

Lindbergh Misunderstood. Army officers at Boiling Field ascribed the trouble Lindbergh had with the gas feed of his P-1 plane to the flier's misunderstanding of in structions given him just befora he hopped off. Informed of his statement at Mitchel Field that he had made the entire trip to New York on the aux iliary fuel supply, the officers pointed out that there was only one supply of gasoline aboard and that was In the main tank.

They expressed the be lief that the flier turned the wrons gasoline switch, draining the fuel trom the main tank into the auxiliary. It was explained that the P-1 car ried two tanks, one divided into "main" and "reserve" tanks, with the former holding forty gallons and the latter ten, and a fifty-gallon "aux iliary" tank which was emntv. The main and reserve tanks are so linked that if the "main" switch on the control board is employed, the engine will stop when the forty gallons are consumed, after which the ten-gallon reserve is drawn upon. If tne reserve switch is used at the out set, the entire fifty gallons, it wa saio, nows into the engine without giving warning when only ten gallons remain.

Covington, an attorney representing certain railroads and corporations, but particularly that he is retained by various text-book concerns and the tventucKy jockey Club.

Mr. Lucas set forth as one of the principles of his platform, free textbooks for the sons and daughters of Kentucky taxpayers, and asserted that an act calling for free textbooks, after having been passed by the lower house of the Kentucky Legislature, was defeated in the Sen ate in 1920 by four votes after a hur ried trip to Frankfort by Maurice Galvin and an adjournment of two hours by that body. Favors More Roads. He said that if he is elected Governor he would advocate more roads better roads and cheaper contracts, especially for Eastern Kentucky, say ing that Eastern Kentucky had been neglected in the past in road building programmes. He promised further that he would "throw the sunlight into the rat hole of certain highway commission manipulations.

Mr. Lucas said that politics in Kentucky were under a system of bi partisan control with the Kentucky Jockey Club directing, if possible who should be nominated in both the Republican and Democratic parties with a complete swing by that organi zation after the primaries. He declared that Kentucky normal ly is Republican, predicted that in the coming- election "some people were going to be greatly surprised, and that there were going to be some changes made. Mr. Lucas said he was coming back to Hazard and Eastern Kentucky ac companied by Mrs.

Christine Brad-lev South, daughter of the late Gover. nor and Senator, Bradley, to visit every county seat and that he believed that Eastern Kentucky was going to take its side upon that of justice and clean government.

Lindbergh in the Ford Reliability tour which will start from Detroit June Zl were made today at meeting of the Lindbergh reception committee which will go to St. Louis Thursday to invite the flier to visit here after his trip to the Missouri city. John C. Lodge, a granduncle of Lindbergh and president of the Detroit City Council, announced that the committee will ask the flier to time his vfrit to Detroit, so he will be here at the opening of the tour. It is hoped.

Lodge continued, that Lindbergh will consent to pilot a Ryan monoplane, similar to the "Spirit of St. Louis," which has been entered in the flight. KILLS 11 AT PARTY.

NOISE KEYNOTE DF CELEBRATION Lindbergh Alarmed for Safe ty of Watchers From Skyscrapers. (Continued from First Page.) bitious attempts reproduction oc curred in restaurants where the flier's portrait wag done In cake. For once there was some advantage In being In the Tombs.

Six hundred and eight prisoners, peering from be hind the bars, had much better places to see the parade than the milling thousands beneath them. They joined In the cheering when the Lone Eagle appeared. Lindbergh, who flew across the Atlantic alone, was concerned today for the safety of many of his New York admirers whom he saw perched high on window sills, ledges and roofs. "Some, of those people sitting on the edges of roofs seem to be taking great chances," the flier told Mayor Walker as they rode along the parade route. Burglars did a neat Job of decorat ing the show windows of a tea shop along the parade route last night They placed Lindbergh posters on every inch of glass.

Then today, be hind the decoration, they opened the safe and removed $904. "Trudy" first woman to swim the English Channel, paid horn age to Lindbergh by saying she en joyed his reception more even than her own. She said it, too, at Gover nor Smith's side in Central Park Hall peering very charmingly from a special Lindbergh style hat, which has the airplane propeller on it just be hind one ear. WThen Lindbergh landed at Bour get. the Associated Press' flash to Mayor Walker and the police and fire departments released the steam whis tles on harbor craft.

New York sat up. It needed no flash today. And those, who thought they had heard whistles had heard nothing up to that time. The Colonel's landing was in plain sight of thousands and that which and those who couldn't whistle yelled. Lindbergh's eardrums, although kc customed to the roar of an airplane motor, could scarcely stand the strain of the din of whistles.

As ho stood on top of the pilot house of the city tug Macom, he put his hands to his ears to shut out the long sustained noise. Park Avenue forgot its customary dignity today in its enthusiasm over having Lindbergh and his mother as temporary residents in the apartment of Harry H. Frazee, theatrical mag nate. Cheering crowds gathered along the streets as Lindbergh was driven to the suite at the close of the exercises in Central Park. When he reached the Park Avenue end of the journey windows were thrown open and resi dents leaned out to catch a glimpse of the flyer and wave their greetings Ir, Frazee, a personal friend of Mayor Walker, offered the use of his suite when he learned a quiet, seclud ed retreat was desired for the Lind berghs during their stay.

The apart ment is on the eleventh floor at 270 Park Avenue and consists of twelve rooms with a full retinue of servants In charge. Mr. Frazee's family is out of the city.

Planes Form Escort. Lindbergh left Washington, where he was taken directly from Europe on a warship for his first welcome home, just before 10 o'clock this morning. He flew "solo," aa he flew on his great adventure overseas, and behind him was a convoy of twenty-one, similar planes, one of them piloted by Commander Byrd. At noon he dropped out of the skies In his golden nosed piane onto Mitchel Field, close by the Roosevelt Field runway from which ha took off May 20 for France. hile the escorting squadron circled above the field, Lindbergh transferred, as a passenger this time, to an amphibian plane, which carried him to a landing In the waters of New York Bay at Quarantine.

There the ity tug Macom was waiting and he went aboard, his welcome beginning with a din of steamer whistles as he climbed the tug's sides. On the way up the bay to the battery, some 500 craft moved ahead their funnels laying down a smoke' screen which almost hid the Macom from sight. Behind were almost as many more and all had their whis'les tied down. Other craft all over the harbor took up the greeting and so, with flags flying and fire boats spouting fountains of water in salute, Charles Lindbergh came back to New York. An estimated BOjoOO persons were jammed in the comparatively small battery park, on the ground, in windows, on roofs and as the Macom appeared they all went wild.

There was a great surge toward the pier, in which women fainted and severai thousand policemen had their hands full to maintain order. A pandemonium of cheering broke forth and Lindbergh, who had been in the cabin talking to reporters, mounted the pilot house roof and waved his laughing reply. Ha less, As Usual. lie was wearing a dark civilian suit and he was hatless. His curl hair blew in the fresh breeze and he looked less than his 25 years.

There was something very boyish in his appearance as he stood there facing the surging sea of his admirers who cheered again with delight. The flier was placed in an automobile with Grover A. Whalen, chairman of the Mayor's Committee of "Welcome and the car took its place in the apparently endless parade which for almost an hour past had been steadily marching by. The crowds in lower Broadway were such as police had never seen before. The sidewalks were packed tight, all skyscraper windows were filled with heads as close as bunched grapes, heads peered over the rooftops and adventurous youths perched on cornices and window sills.

Many a window in the miles of plate glass must have caved in before the pressure of the packed bodies but for the foresight of building owners who had boarded over practically all the glass along the line of march. The paper snowstorm with which New York greets its favorites had bvrun to fall while Lindbergh was still down the bay, but when he road up Broadway it became a blizzard. Nor was it confined to Broadway and Fifth Avenue, over which the parade marched. At the signal of the harbor crafts' whistles the air became full of paper over the whole city. Miles from the route that Lindbergh had to pass the artificial snow drifted downward and coated the city.

Mayor Walker Greets Him. After passing through the canyons of the financial district Lindbergh was greeted at City Hall by Mayor Walker and was reunited with his mother, who had come from Washington by train. For the rest of the parade Mrs. Lindbergh rode In a car behind her son. She, too.

was vociferously cheered. She contentedly smiled and bowed. Mayor Walker presented a scroll and then complimented the flier on his deed. "We are not giving you the city," he said. "It is yours.

You have won it." Lindbergh, the youngest Immortal, was at his best during the ceremonies. For the first few moments after taking his place from which he looked out into the faces of thousands, the flying diplomat appeared to be under a strain. His face wore a serious expression that was becoming. But as the Mayor began to heap compliment after compliment upon 'him, putting touches of humor into his remarks, Colonel Lindberg quickly seemed to realize that the great throng assembled to pay him honoi, was human too. The Mayor's speech brought frequent shouts of merriment from his hearers, which pleased the famous flier and he laughed with them.

In Washington, and in Paris, Brussels and London, the speech-making and other ceremonies arranged in his honor had much of dignity but 'dlo not have the human touch that Mayor Walker injected into his address today. The Colonel, time and again, had stood his ground, as serious as could be, but today when he heard what the Mayor had to say, Lindbergh not only smiled and grinned, but laughed outright. So did his admiring mother, s. Evangeline Lodge Lindbergh, who fat within a few feet of her tall, slender boy. The parade then continued to Madison Square, still through crowd- lined streets close-packed with men and women who, waiting since early morning, now struggled I for a glimpse of the aviator.

At "the eternal light," in memory of the war dead in Madison Square, there were brief ceremonies and then the flier continued onward to the hall in Central Park, i Fifth Avenue was as crowded as Broadway had been and Lindbergh rode its stately length as he had through the narrow highway of the lower city, seated on the folded top of the open car and waving saluta tions to the crowd. In Central Park he was presented with New York State's medal of valor, which never before had been given to any but a native New Yorker. Governor Smith made the presentation, saying that Lindbergh was hailed in the Empire State as "an ideal and an example for the youth of America." Smith Praises Character. "New York is proud to bestow upon you her medal of valor," the Governor said, "not only for your achievement, which is beyond the power of words to describe, but in admiration of the personality which your exploit and your daring has painted for us." The medal was inscribed as fol- 'ows: The medal for valor of the State of New York is hereby awarded to Captain Charles A. Lindbergh.

The ceremony In the mall was the last public appearance for which Lindbergh was scheduled on his first day back in New York. With four days still left which will be filled with activity, it was thought best to permit the airman a little rest on the day of his welcome. Arrangements had been made for him and his mother to attend a private rece'ption this evening at the Long Lsland summer home of Clarence Mackay, president of the Tostal Telegraph Com pany, and to spend tha night at th Mackay home. Police, trained in crowd computa tion, help up their night sticks in dis may and inability today and declined to hazard within 500,000 as to how many persons actually participated in today reception to Colonel Lind bergh. Newspapers, however, for headline purposes, seemed agreed that 2,000,000 persons and upward saw Lindbergh, or tred to, within the citv limits.

Those who couldn't see the solliers nor yet hear the music from the ground numbered even more, for the National Broadcasting Company estimated thy told 15,000,000 persons every visible detail of the parade and reception over the radio. And when the annouifcers were not talking they w-ere letting the millions who were seeing give their cheers circulation over the "mike." At the Battery, a small crowd of a few thousand stood from early to late or until Lindbergh set foot on Pier after 1 o'clock. By that time the small crowd was up to 50,000 and still swelling. Here and there women fainted, and occasional attempts were mads by the hardier males to break throueh polies lines. These attempts failed in nearly every instance, or were pushed back after only a few hundred rad got "beyond bounds." At the Mall in Central Park the greatest aggregation of persons had assembled, including Governor Smith who arrived an hour before Col.

Lindbergh and spent some of the spare time trying to reach agreement with those in his party. Agreement, as to numbers, was, however, frankly, they said, impossible. 500,000 In Tark. Estimators started at 50,000, reached 200,000 twenty minutes before Lindbergh arrived, and then hovered, climbed, rose and fell until for "statistical purposes" it was asserted there were ''around 500,000." New York's mass salute today was the capsheath of a hundred years of parade and procession. When the Twenty-seventh Division returned from France on March 25, 1919, it was estimated that 3,000,000 people saw the great parade which moved up Broadway and Fifth Avenue.

Admiral George Dewey on September 30, 1899, received for his triumph in Manila Bay the greatest reception accorded an individual before Lindbergh. Thirty thousand persons marched in the parade and speculators offered as much as $3,000 for the use of windows in a four-story house on Fifth Avenue. Ticker tape, confetti and torn fragments of telephone directories came into greatest use, before today, in the celebration of August 21 last for Gertrude Ederle after she had conquered the English Channel. In 1S5. 50,000 men marched behind the body of Abraham Lincoln when it passed through this city on its way to Springfield, 111.

Five years later, 12,000 troops accompanied the body of Admiral Farm gut as it was carried down the Avenue. A procession of 40,000 persons, in 18S5, -escorted the body of General Grant up the Avenue to Riverside Drive and to the tomb in which his body lies. Four years later, 50,000 paraded in celebration of the Centenary of the inauguration of Washington. Manhattan also remembers one "noiseless parade." In 1883 900 bicyclists of the American Wheelman's Association pedaled in solemn dignity through lanes jof people in the same Avenue which today shouted itself hoarse for Lindbergh. Only two events are on tomorrow's programme for the entertainment of Lindbergh.

At 1 o'clock in the afternoon 100,000 New York school children in Central Park will participate in a musical programme. It is planned to have four speakers, Mayor James J. Walker, George J. Ryan, president of the Board of Education; William J. O'Shea.

City Superintendent of Schools, and Lindbergh. What has been announced as the largest municipal banquet ever given in this city will take place In the evening, when Lindbergh will be the guest of the city of New York. More than 3,000 persons are expected to attend this banquet, which will be held at the Hotel Commodore. Mayor Walker will be the toastmaster, while Governor Smith and Lindbergh will be the only speakers. Guests At Dinner-Dance.
