sails and running gear were burned at
the fire In the Erie Basin in December
and she would need TO be rerigged and
have new suits of sails made. This, how
ever. could be done II Mr.. Post or Sir
Thomas Upton would agree 10 spend the
necessary money. In his reply Sir Thorn
as says he Is willing TO let Mr.. Post have
the use of the Shamrock. TO be sailed by
her own skipper. but this, according to
Mr.. Post, would not prove what he wants
and he says he will send representative
10 London To talk with Sir Thomas.
Ii Is not at all likely that this offer
will come to anything. The Columbia Is
owned by ex-Commodore j. Pierpont Nor
gan. and IL is not thought that he would
allow his yacht 10 be used for any such
purpose as Mr.. Post suggests. Capt. Barr
who sailed the Columbia in her last races,
has been engaged to sail the Mineola for

available to handle the Shamrock III IL

MIR. Post of Battle Creek May Use
the English Yacht for the Sea-
son Free of Charge.

New York, March i.-Some time ago G.
w. Post, who lives at Battle Creek, Mich,
wrote to Sir Thomas Upton. Offering 10
charter the Shamrock III. and race her
against the Columbia I'm the coming sea-
son.
He offered $4,000 TO Sir Thopas Upton
for the use of the Shamrock for the sea-
son, and wanted 10 put the English
skipper and crew OF the Shamrock on the
Columbia and the American crew on the
Shamrock. lie suggested this TO show
that with crews changed. the Shamrock
would beat the Columbia. and that Amer
ican sailors are the best in the world.
Sir Thomas Upton has sent the following

be manned with n British skipper and
crew provided by myself. In the first

A LINN GREEK VICTIM
Boniford Langdon Seven Years
Of Age, Loses His Life in
Swollen Stream.
Fell From an 0verhanging Tree
on Which He Was Playing
With Companion.
Searching Parties Now Seeking
the Body...Father Is Great
Western Employee.

Linn creek claimed another victim
today, when Boniford Langdon, years
Of age, was drowned while playing
about she stream. The body has not
yet been recovered.
Langdon, with companion named
Clarence Hart, about the same age,
were playing along the stream at q
point ree-Quarters of mile west of
the South Sixth street bridge. The
stream is all but bank full because Of
the heavy rains of the night, and the
current is rapid. The swiftly running
water attracted the boys and they in
dulged in dangerous feats. Finding a
large tree which had grown across the
stream both boys climbed out over the
water. Langdon lost his footing and
fell into the creek, and was swept
down stream rapidly.
The Hart boy says he saw him but
one after he fell, and that was about
seventy feet down stream. Langdon
rose to the surface of the water and
called FOR help. but that was the last
made.
Langdon has been living with Mr..
and Mrs. Swanson johnson, who reside
Just outside the city limits sotheast of
the city, and south of Linn creek.
Young Hart ran to the Johnson home
and informed the family, and aid was
summoned from the city, word having
been brought up town about l o'clock.
The drowning occurred about 11:15.
Searching parties We're at once or
ganized and boats were secured from
Archie White at the river and taken to
the creek. Because Of the swift cur
rent the rising waters and the amount
of brush and debris in the creek, the
search has been difficult and 1t may be
several days before the body is recoved.
Langdon Is son of X. j. Langdon, an
employee of the Chicago Great Western.
The father is now employed with the
surfaaing gang at Haverhill. He has
been summoned. The mother is dead.
A sister, Miss Mamie Langdon, is en-
ployed as a waitress in the Paragon
restaurant.

WOMAN'S BRAVE DEED
Succeeds Unassisted in Swim.
ming English Channel TWEEN.
ty.eisht Miles Wide.
Feat Is Accomplished by Cora
Beckwith. Champion Europ-
can Lady Swimmer.

It is twenty-eight miles across the
English CHANNEL which separates Eng
land from France and no roughsr or
more violent stretch of ocean may be
found anywhere in the world. Thous-
ands of swimmers have attempted the
crossing but to fail and it was reserved
to woman, Cora Beckwith, to ac-
complish the wonderful feat. Miss
Beckwith is the champion lady trick
and fancy swimmer of Europe. She is
the only human being who has accom-
plished the remarkable task of floating
forty days in water. Her novel exhibit
tons in the water were among the mar
vels of the Pan-American exposition
and the wonder of the press and people
of the entire country. 1t may be truth
fully stated that she is her own only
parallel. No other approaches her mar
velous feats. She is the greatest of in
door and outside swimmers, and her ex-
hibitions in tanks or open water attract
crowds to witness them.
Miss BeclSwith has been prevailed
upon to devote the week of June 80 to
luly 6 to Marshalltown where she will
give her wonderful exhibitions at the
carnival grounds. The carnival com
irany has been most fortunate In Sc
curing this great European attraction
even at a heavy expenditure of time and
money. That the company succeeded
in inducing Miss Beckwith to come
west is simply another proof Of it's en-
terprise and determination to give
Iowans the greatest show ever seen in
Iowa. From June 80 to July all roads
will lead to Marshalltown.
