sails and rigging slowed away in the

ly caulked and frightened, and her un-
derbody cleared of the long marine
growth which has accumulated after
more than twenty years in Chelsea
Greek, Fort Point Channel, and Law
ley's basin. The topsides Wiilfbe re-
painted, and decks cleaned and lOther
necessary renovation carried out. The
Lawley Company has agreed to per-
form the work on cost minus basis,
in other words to charge only for the
actual expense of putting the boat in
shape and contributing something per-
haps in the way of paint.
Every effort will be afforded yachts
men along the coast especially the
younger portion of the fraternity, to
inspect the winner of the Royal
Squadron Cup, which bears her name
Some of the youngsters will be asked
to hold the wheel for a part Of the
trip. The wheel is in excellent con-
dition while the rudder and rudder
post are quite sound. In fact that
boat shows surprising little signs of
decay, and Mr. George Lawley de-
clares that she is good for seventy
years longer. provided the Govern
ment takes proper care of this old
craft. The copper was stripped of the
bottom four years ago., but the plank
ing is firm and the ends of the wooden
bolts are in good state Of preserva-
tion
1t is expected that the America
will be manned by members of the
United States Junior Naval Reserve
for part Of her trip from Buzzard's
Bay to- New York. This organization
asked permission to participate in the
"trip early in the summer. and ar
rangements are being perfected fol
several of the young sailors to board
the yacht at New Bedford.
Before leaving Boston. the Amer

The historic schooner yacht
America" will start about the mid
die of next month on her homeward
bound voyage to Annapolis to be re-
stored to the Naval Academy after
forty-eight years of private ownership.
The necessary order to the George
Lawley Company, where the boat has
been ever since she was purchased
four years ago by Charles H. w. Fos-
ter, was given few days ago by the
Advisory Board of the SAmerica"
Restoration Fund. sufficient amount
having been received for the work.
Secretary Denly who accepted the
boat last spring with the proyiso that
the Government be permitted to pur-.
chase the boat for s10o has been
notified that the America will be
in the Severn River ready for delivery
about the first week in October, and
it is expected that the transfer of the
yacht to the Government will be at
tended by some simple formality, with
possibility that President Harding
may be present.
The itinerary of the trip includes a
visit to Marblehead. Marion. several
rorts in Narragansett Bay and Long
Island Sound; a brief stop at New
York. and run through the Raritan
Canal. the Delaware River and the
Chesapeake Canal to annapolis. The
towing will be by sub-chaser which
Secretary DENNY agreed to furnish at
the time he accepted the tender of the
yacht.
The America will be mastless on
her last voyage. The advisory board,
after a careful survey of the yacht
and consideration of the fact that
her 20 foot spars ON end would not
clear the bridge over the Raritan
Canal at New Brunswick, n. J., de-
cided that to attempt to step the sticks

sWARTzEL NOT GUILTY

Joplin, June ia verdict OF mot
guilty, on the four counts against
Walter L. Swartzel, was returned by
the jury in federal court yesterday
afternoon after decision Ct almost
four hours.
Swartzel was charged with steal
ing shoes from freight car in Monett
on May 8, 1920. The four counts
against him were breaking seal on
the car, entering the car, taking the
goods and possessing them.
The case was opened at the start
of the afternoon session of the court,
Wednesday and all the testimony
was not heard until shortly before
noon yesterday. 1t was $3.50 o'clock
Wien the jury returned its verdict.
The case was first tried in the
State Court before Judge Hobbs, and
preliminary examination was held
in Monet. Mr.. Swartzel denied any
theft of the shoes and asserted that, ne
found the shoes in a quincy sack in
an empty coal car in the yards, and
merely picked them up and started
towards the yard office with therh
for the purpose of reporting his find
and was arrested while carrying the
shoes to the yard office.
In the preliminary examination
Judge Hobbs discharged Mr.. Swartzel
and held that he was doing nothing
more than his duty as yard master i'm
! taking the shoes and reporting them.
After Mr.. Swartzel was discharged
by Justice Hobbs, Special Officer
Huff appeared before the Federal
/ Grand Jury at Joplin, and procured an
incident. One means Huff claims
he had of identifying Mr.. Swartzef
was that he saw his legs underneath
! the car as he carried the sack, and
that Mr.. Swartzel had on khaki trous-
ers, but, the defense showed by a
number of switchmen, and other dis
interested witnesses, that Mr.. Swart-
eel wore new pair Of blue bib over
ais on that day.
The government was represented by
Attorneys, Carmean and Coon, and
Mr.. Swartzel was represented by the
law firm of Sizer & Gardner.

There are scores of people who
drag out miserable existence with

from nervousness, dizziness, weak
