EX-MAYOR OF DIES MONIES
DEFEATS ENGLISH WRESTLER
James Brenton's Enormous Weight
and Strength Prove Too Much
for Champion.

DIES MONIES, Ia. Aug. 2S.-Ex-
Mayor James Brenton of Des Moines
threw James Parr, champion wrestler
of England, last night in eight min
utes, securing a haIf-Nelson and bear
ing his $50 pounds of weight down
upon the sprightly young English
mans shoulders.
The match was for three rounds of
fifteen minutes each, Parr to throw
Brenton best two in three. The ex-
Mayor and County Superintendent of
Schools. despite his portly pro-
portions, exhibited some clever breaks
from PARIS holds and managed to
battle against the Englishman for nine
minutes before his shoulders went
down in the second round.
Some one in the crowd cried fake"
when Brenton appeared at the front
Of the stage and offered to bet 500
he could throw any man in the house
in ten minutes.

FrOlic Takes Contest for
Twenty-Footers Which Is
MARRIED by Two Accidents

The owners cup race and class flag

was sailed yesterday afternoon under
weather conditions that were all that
could be desired.
The Jessie E, owned by John Rosen-
field. covered herself with salt spray
and glory, winning the owners cup
and also the thirty six class flag in
two hours and three minutes. Close
behind her came the lola, owned by
Robert Vincent, and the Gypsy owned
by Charles e. Clark. All three boats
finished seconds apart. the race being
closely contested from the start.
The thirty foot-class flag was cap
tured by the Gypsy, owned and sailed

which was open to all classes, and in
the class event.
A series of minor accidents marred
the twenty-foot class, which was won
by Harry Brindle's little salmon boat
Frolic. The other two starters, the
Anita, owned by E. Fratgo, and the
Pollywog, owned by Tyler and Bi1by.
met with mishaps which put them out
Of the race. The Pollywog lost her
rudder at the start. The Anita shipped
so much water off Mission Rock that
Tyler, who was sailing her, was forced
to give up and run for the clubhouse.
The course of the owners cup race
was from the Oakland mole, around
Alcatraz Island and Mission Rock to
the Alameda mole, twelve miles in all.
The twenty foot-class race was sailed
on the course from the Oakland mole
around Mission Rock, thence to the
Alameda mole. The water was fairly
smooth, although a stiff breeze was
blowing during all the races.
