BARREN BLACK ] HILLS CRAVE OF , WOMAN'S HOPE fioneer Wife Met Only Grief and Hardship in Her Quest for Gold. f BY C. J. LILLY WASHINGTON, June 20.—Fiftytwo years ago the first white woman Uvent into the Black Hills of South Dakota, but her journey was far different from that so recently made by the First Lady of the |Land. Mrs. Annie D. Tallent, the first {White woman, alternately walked or jrode in a canvas-topped prairie jschooner. Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, the first lady, traveled on a special train, tone of the finest ever assembled. Mrs. Tallent suffered the hardships and privations of a pioneer venturing into a land where only iarmed military forces had ever (dared to go before. Mrs. Coolidge enjoyed all the icomforts and luxuries that a prosperous nation can lavish upon the {wife of its president. Story of Hardships The story of Mrs. Tallent is one cf suffering and bravery with an end scarcely worthy of the hardships that she endured. Learning of gold in the Black Kills, she set out Oct. 6, 1874, with fcer husband, 25 other men and a Boy, from Sioux City, lowa, in a Wagon train heavily stocked with piunitidus and food. Their destination was a secret befcause to tell anyone in those days Hhat you were going to the Black Kills was to invite government intervention. The hills were part of (the land set aside for occupancy by {the various tribes of the Sioux Indians and any trespassing was likely to be resented by an uprising and ideath to the trespassers. Fewer than twenty miles a day tyere traversed by this pioneer caravan in striking contrast to the presidential train, clicking along at more than twice that many miles an hour. Death Stalks on Trail. Homesickness,athirst, hunger and death traveled along with the Tallent party, coupled with the everpresent fear of attack and possible annihilation at the hands of roving* Indian bands. Months passed before the Black Hills were sighted. It was Christmas before the bedraggled party, much of its cattle lost, its food practically gone and its members virtually in rags, came to a final resting place at k spot now historically treasured as the location tof the “Gordon Stockade.” Here five rude cabins were built, and around them was erected a high fence to make more difficult an attack by the hidden but always present enemy. w The first white woman sjJent her in the Black Hills in a rude little loom with a cloth window bearing the following legend in large red letters: “XXX Extra Superfine.” Here she ate, slept, worked and lived through a long, hard winter. Mrs. Tallent had to help build her modest residence. Ousted by “Army” No visitors penetrated into those hills‘and the little stockade where for several months Mrs. Tallent and her companions extracted gold from the creeks near their homes. A couple of lieutenants and a small crew of privates finally called upon Mrs. Tallent on a morning in early spring. - When they came, the first white woman ever to visit the Black Hills w'as hoisted onto an Army pack mule and placed under technical arrest. She was taken to a nearby Army post and ordered back to civilization under penalty *ipt to return. The first white woman is now {buried somewhere in the West ♦where she went in search of a fortune she never found. But a monument has been erected Jn the hills in her honor and another marks the site of her little log cabin. And the First Lady of the "Land is likely to hear the appealing tale of this woman who preceded her into that romantic country. NEW THEATER OPENS I * Jhousands Flock to View Indiana Playhouse.

Sad Old Man Keeps Up Fight for 60 Years to Erase Deserter Stain. Bu yi'A Service SEATTLE, Wash., June 20. - A sad old man wonders her today if_the acclaim heaped upon Charles A. Lindbergh by his country might not wipe out an unjust stain on an honored name. v The old man is Francis A. Land, and he is Lindebrgh's great-uncle. For sixty years he has been on Civil War rolls as a- deserter; for sixty years he has fought bitterly and unavailaingly to clear the family name of that dishonor. And now, /at 84. he lives alone and friendless in one room in despair. His one hope is that, in the glare focussed on his nephew, he may win his last battle. Captured at Chancellorsville Land Jived in Buffalo, N. Y., and volunteered with the Grand Army when the Civil War broke out. Asa private in Company C. 3rd Maryland Infantry, he took part in the severe fighting of the Tamous Peninsular campaigns. Then, in 1863, his regiment was one of those overwhelmed when Stonewall Jackson Crumpled Hooker’s right wing at Chancellorsville. Land, wounded, was captured and confined in Libby Prison. According to Lancfi he stayed in prison until the war ended. Army records list him as having been paroled before Lee's surrender. At all events, he became separated from his company after his release. 111, partly delirious, he made his way to his home at Buffalo. For months he recuperated there. Then he sought to look up his old messmates. It was in vajp. His outfit was scatterred, most of the officers were dead and his records were gone. Land applied for a pension: and then he discovered that against his name on the Army records at Washington was the notation; “Deserter.” He took up the fight for justice—and lost. He could not locate the company records; most of his comrades were dead or scattered He wandered about the country, trying to find them—and failed. “I never deserted from duty or a job in my life,” he says. “I used to want justice for myself; now I want it for Charlie. I don’t think a boy that all the world Honors should have to bear that unjust stain on the family name. “Some of my friends have asked Charlie’s mother, now that she’s famous, to tell President Coolidge about it. “Mrs. Lindbergh was born in my old house in Detroit, and Charlie was born there, too. I am a brother of Charlie’s grandfather.” Justice only is what he wants, the aged man says. Wants Only Clean Name “Charlie can have all the honors,” he asserts. “He has earned them—and all I want now is that the Government shall clear up this old and untrue assertion that I tarnished the family name.” Two years ago Senator Wesley Jones of Washington introduced a bill in Congress to straighten the tangle out and give Land pension. The bill failed at that time, but Senator Jones is planning'"to revive it at the next session. (Copyright, 1927, NEA Service, Inc.)

138 CITIES RUSH CAMPAIGN FOR NEW AIR PORTS

Scores of Communities Are Awakening to Great Boom in Aviation. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Press Staff Cnrrcspnndcnt WASHINGTON, June 20.—The 1 boom period of aviation is due to ! set in. i Reports tiere show Chambers oi Commerce in 138 cities with active committees on aeronautics at work. Kansas City dedicates its new airport June 30. A million-dollar campaign has been started to suy Roosevelt Field on Long Island and make it a municipal airport named for Lindbergh. . The National Press Club formally has proposed to the United States Chamber of Commerce that It undertake to interest its 1,500 members organizations, including civic and commercial bodies throughout the country, in establishing World War memorial landing flplds. Officials of the Chamber, pending formal consideration, welcomed the suggestion and thought it might appeal to many cities.

Washington Awakens As an instance of the boom, Washington after viewing the air mail indifferently for years, suddenly has started pulling all wires to make, this a regular stop on the New York to Atlanta route to be opened probably iri August. Baltimore suddenly has become interested and the two cities have engaged this week in keenest rivalry to land the stop. Assistant Postmaster General Glover,' in charge of airmail warned Washington that it certainly would lose out as a part of call unless it immediately established a municipal landing field. His letter was so emphatic that it was plain that in future years a city without a municipal landing field will be almost as handicapped as a town without a railroad station. If Lindbergh does nothing else for aviation, the nation-wide interest he has stirred in the commercial possibilities of flying will make him a benefactor of the newest art on man. Auto Growth Cited Aviation is now in the same stage that the automobile was in twenty years ago when owners on those fragile horseless carriages set out on the muddy roads, trusting chiefly in providence. Automobiles then where more uncertain in performance than airplanes are now. Airport development will mean to the airplane what the good road3 movement did to the automobile. DependidDle planes and safe airways and'landing fields are almost here, aviation experts believe. All thatjs needed is sufficient popular interest to put public support behind the automobile, the radio and the movie. If enthusiasm aroused by Lindbergh succeeds in doing this, aviation followers believe in the next ten years the airplane will become as vital as these o.her great wonders of the twentieth century.

Bn United Tress VIENNA, June 20.—Another nation forgot the wounds of war to pay tribute to two Americans today when Austria enthusiastically acclaimed Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine.
