3000 MLE TRI ENDS INTHIS GITY Miss Hunter and Friend Gome From New Mexico Miss Katherine Hunter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George H. Hunter of 131 Winthrop street, returned home last night after a year and & half stay in Albuquerque, N. M. In company with Joseph Milam of the western city, she made the trip by automobile, eovering the distance. about 3,000 miles in 10 days. To seasoned 'autoists, there |is nothing remarkable in the journey just completed by Mr. Milam and Miss Hunter, but the extraordinary part of their story is contained in the fact that the car in which they rode, was a small coupe and over the/ entire distance, the conduct of the engine was uninterrupted by cven a spark plug fouling, no blow- outs were experienced and the tires needed no inflation during the jour- ney. The two left the ity in New Mexico & week ago last Sunday morning at 9:30 o’clock and arrived at the=home of Miss Hunter's par- ents in this city last night at 11:45 daylight saving time. The last leg of the journey was made from Reading, Pa., directly to this city. Starting from Albuquerque, they crossed the mountains of New Mex- ico and came into Tuncuncari, which s almost out of the Rocky Mountains. Continuing, they enter- ed the great plain section known as the Panhandle in Texas to Sham- rock where they spent the second! night of them journey. This town is one of the most recent oil boom towns which have sprung up in the far reaches of the Lone Star State. As it is very Infrequent in this sec: tlon for rain to fall, the travelers were surprised to encounter their first shower there. For miles along the great plain roadways, cars were oft on the sides and some even tarn- ed over attesting to the fact that the residents there are unused to driving along wet highways. From Texas, they entered the state of Oklahoma reaching Tuecson and staying third day in Oklahoma City. They passed through a beau-| titul section of country and entered | the southeastern corner of Kansas passing through Galina. Goihg over the hills here, they passed through the zine mining section where for miles upon miles can be seen piles of slag rock from which the ore is| taken, Entering Missourl they spent the fourth night in Springfield and the next day started over the Ozark rail which winds over the Ozark Mountains. A perfect road and per- fect weather gave the couple an ex- | cellent chance to enjoy to the fullest | possible extent the beaty and| grandeur of this passage, the most beautiful of their trip. Entering St. Louls, they passed the fifth night there and on Friday morning, they crossed the Mississippi River into Fast St. Louls. As this section is above the flood zone, the river ap- peared near normal to the travelers. Here they encountered a downpour which lasted all day. They passed | on the edge of Indiana and Illinois; with the rain coming In torrents all day long. They approached Terre Haute and along the road, hundreds of cars were drowned out. Strings| of automobiles were marooned be- | cause of wet machinery and heroic | struggles were seen all along to tow | the mired machines to dry country. Saturday dawned with the rain still falling but as the travelers kept on, the weather cleared. On enter- ing Columbus, however, they en-| countered an electrical storm which to their minds was the greatest they have ever seen. Again it poured but still the hardy craft of the local girl and her com- panion kept on without the slightest sign of a falter. Sunday, the pair reached Greensburg, Pa. and after rosting there that night, started out Monday to cross the Allegheny Mountains. Up grades five miles long the little car progressed and here the only mechanical trouble of trip was experienced. The brake bands were so badly worn that they had to be replaced immediately. But for the rain and the foggy weather, they would have seen for miles around from the high spots. They reached the Lincoln Highway and, drove into Reading, Pa., Monday night leaving there yesterday morn- ing at 9 o'clock and arriving home last night. Miss Hunter, who is a native of this state, plans te return to New Mexico in the fall. Her compari- son of climates is not very compli- mentary to New England although she states she loves the land of her birth. Mr. Milam is a hative of Tennessee and has been in Albuquer- que for several years in the tobacco growing industry. He was an em- ploye of the United States Depart- inent of Agriculture and was relicved of his duties to attend to others in the tobacco fields ot New Mexico. He plans to visit the tobacco planta- tions in this state this week and will @en re-enter the employ of the gov- arnment. He will be stationed in Tennessee and will return there next Monday. Share in Estate Cut If Wife Marries Again Provided that his wife, Catherine, does not remarry, the entire estate ot the late Joseph Schilling is left to her for her use during the re- mairder of her life. In the event that she marries again she is to re- ceite the use of only one-third of the estate. Upon her death the cs- tate i3 to be divided eually between two sons, Frederick J. Schilling and Henry A. Schilling. 8o rea will of Mr. Schilling, filed today probate court. Frederick J. Schil- ling, Henry A. Schilling and Isaac D. Russell are appointed executors and trustees and tho will asks that they be relieved of furnishing bonds in- sofar as may be possible. The docu ment was drawn January 19, 1925.

The Western Union tower here vibrated violently for 20 sec- onds. The first shock was felt at 8:27 a. m. (daylight saving time). Washington, June 1 (M—George- town university seismographs showed no indications of earth tremors today and Director Tondorf believed the disturbance reported along the New Jersey coast was as- soclated with a movement of sands along the beaches, which has’ not been an unusual occurrence. He at- tached no significance to the tremors from a selmic standpoint. New York, June 1 (P—Three dis- tinct “local” quakes were recorded on tse seismograph at Fordham unfversity today. The shocks were recorded at 8:23, §:31 and 8:40 a. m. The Fordham instrument is equip- ped mainly for long distance record- ing and, as the local quakes started so near by, it was impossible to es- timate the origin of the disturbance. Scientists at the University, how- over, were not surprised when in- formed that the coast bhad been shaken.

It has been decided, however', that after his velcome here Lindbergh will go to New York by airplane to receive the plaudits of that city. The cabinet committec decided to- day to turn over to the commission- ers of the District of Columbia de- tails of Lindbergh's stay after he has been received by President Coo- lidge and awarded a distinguished flying cross citation. A general impression prevailed that the capital ceremonies could be concluded within the space of one day and that Captain Lindbergh then would be free to go to New York. St. Louls backers and friends of the flier indicated to the cabinet committee that they were willing to waive their claim to Lind- bergh in order to permit New York to pay him tribute. Reception By Coolldge In view of the fact that Captain Lindbergh was recelved by the president of France and the kings of Belgium and England ‘it said here that propriety virtually demanded that he be received President Coolidge on the first day he spends in his own country, rath- er than wait several days to visit the president &t his summer resi- Is of the captain’s journey to New York will be worked out later but it was suggested as fitting that he might fly from Washington to New York either in bis own plane, “The Splrit of 8t.

Is the Flagship The Memphis is the flagship of Vice-Admiral Guy H. Burrage, com- mander of the American naval forces in European waters. She is one of the most modern and fastest cruisers in the navy, having been launched in April 1924. She is of the light scout type, 555 1-2 feet over all, with a displacement of 7,- 500 tons and has a #peed of 33.7 knots. Captain H. E. Lackey com- mands the ship which has a crew of 33 other officers and 400 men, The Memphis is the third vessel of that name, the first having been a screw steamer of 791 tons used as a blockade runner in the Civil war, and the second an armored cruiser originally named the Tennessee, which was driven ashore by a tidal wave and completely wrecked in 1916.

Court Hears of Killing During Troopers” Siege Flemington, N. J.|June 1, (P— The trial for manslaughter of 14 state troopers and two agents of the society for the prevention of cruelty to animals today entered its second day with the state prepared to re- late its version of the all-night siege by state troopers of the farmhouse in Jutland during which Miss Beatrice Meaney was shot. The slege by 24 state policemen of the Meaneys occurred last December 21 and followed alleged resistance of service of a warrant charging under- feeding of cattle. The jury, comprised of farmers and merchants and including three women, yesterday heard Assistant Prosecutor Large charge in his open ing address that the troopers brought large quantitics of firearms and ammunition to the siege and finally “decided that dead men tell no tales and that the best thing to be done was to slaughter them all.” Reviewing the day of the alleged crime, Large referred to the society agents, Lester Dusenberry and Harry Hanoway, as “rough looking strang- ers” and said Miss Mcaney's brother Timothy, liad refused to receive them when-they called in the late | afternoon because he had cash in the house. Large said the agents left hut returned twice with warrants, the second time with Corporal Alfred K. Larsen. Timothy Meaney, he charge was manhandled and his brother, James, was shot in the knee by Larsen. “Then,” said Large, referring to Larsen, “this brave and nervous of- ficer ran away.” Returning later Daly and Trooper Smith, however, Larsen and his companions, he said, ransacked James Meaney's house, fired “some shots,” entered home of Timothy Meaney “without a war- rant” and threw through a window. the rock in court. With arrival of 24 troopers from Morristown and Trenton, the siege that resulted in Misg Meaney's death began, Large said. He declared the young woman, hidden in a closet $2,900 He exhibited the walls. He charged the troopers house all were Killed,” tossed in gas bombs and en- tered. Both the Meaney brothers were in gourt throughout vester: sion but showed little concern in the proceedings, The only witness called was Dr. Aaron L. Stillwell, -of Somerville, who treated Miss Meaney before her death and performed an autopsy on her body. He told of the wound.

The Chinese press strongly de- nounces the Japanese move, and of- ficlal protests are being prepared both by the Peking foreign office and the headquarters of the An- kuochun. The question is asked by some as to whether Japan is seiz- ing the present opportunity to re- sume her former privileged posi- tions in Shantung, which she relin- quished at Washington in 1922. The headquarters of Marshal Chang Tso-Lin, the Manchurian war lord, and the Peking foreign office have sent a protest to the Japanese legation against the land- ing of 2,000 Japanese troops at Tsingtao.
