TWO FLEETS OF
SPEEDY YACHTS
IN OCEAN RACES
Fast Ships viii Compete in
Contest From N. Y. to
Spain.

By United Press
NEW YORK, June 2e.-Wittin
the next eight day two fleets OF
yachts will be racing against time
across the Atlantic.
Saturday a group Of chooners less
than fifty feet long, will sail from
Sandy Hook to Santander Harbor,
Spain, where cup donated by
Queen Victoria awaits the Einner.
Then on July 7 larger group of
vessels will follow the same route
for the cup donated by King AL
fonso XIII.
The last great ocean race was
held in 1905 and in that year the
schooner Atlantic led the way over
eleven starters for the German en-
peror's cup.
The Atlantic also is entered this
year, set the North Atlantic sailing
record Of twelve days, four hours
and one minute.
The present course, with Ambrose
Channel Lightship as the point Of
departure and the buoy off the light
at Santander as the finish, follows
the southern steamer course to
longitude "a and then the so-called
Great Circle to the Splash coast
1t is a distance of some 1882 miles
although any yacht whose master
dared the ice fields of Cape Race
could save a couple Of hundred
miles.
Scores Make Crossing
Since the 1905 race scores of
yachts, large and small, have ira
versed the Atlantic and many of
them have made fast time.
In recent years two little schoon-
ers particularly have distinguished
themselves.
Primrose w, owned by Frederick
L. Anes in 1925 ran from Newport
to Falmouth in % days and II
hours, while last summer the Mica
nor, manned by a group of Harvard
students, Scudded across from Bos-
ton Light to the Lizard in 20 days
and 7 hours.
The lagest vessel entered in the
race for the Kings Cup is the brig
Aloha, owned by Arthur Curtiss
James of New York. 1t is 218 feet
over all and is conceded an excel
lent chance Of winning.
Two Spanish Entries
An international aspect is given
the race by the entry, in the first
race, of the small American built
schooner Santa Maria.

JOHN ]. REITTER
APPOINTED SHERIFF
Sleepy Eye Man Wins Appoint
ment on Fifteenth Informal
Ballot of Brown Co.

1t required fifteen informal bal
lots to pick a sheriff at the special
meeting of the county board of Brown
county, which was held at the court
house in New Ulm, Tuesday of last
week. The board met at ten o'clock
and began informal balloting. The
board was in executive session and
the ballots were secret. On the first
ballot Mrs. w. j. julius, widow of
the dead sheriff, received two votes
and John j. Reitter, J. S. Hanson and
Fred Prahl received one each. 1t is
assumed that the two New Ulm CON-
missioners voted for Mrs. Julius and
the other commissioners favored
their home candidates.
AS the balloting progressed Ed.
Wagner of New Ulm, VIM. Gieseke
of New Ulm and Ben Frantz of Cob
den, an eleventh hour candidate, re-
ceived some votes. Most of the cam
didates received as high as two votes
at one time or another. On the fiji
teenth ballot Reitter obtained three
votes and Ed. Wagner two. The
meeting was then thrown open and on
formal motion Mr.. Reitter was I'M
animously elected. Mr.. Wagner was
the only candidate present. He was
a candidate against Julius at the last
election and polled a large vote Reit-
ter was a candidate against Julius
six years ago.
Mr.. Reitter lives at Sleepy Eye,
where he conducts a soft drink par
lor He is an old baseball player
having played with Morgan and
Sleepy Eye. He will move to New
Ulm June /. Until then he will make
daily trips to the county seat. The
county board met yesterday to APP
prove his bond.
The salary of the new sheriff will
be only $1,000, which is the minimum
provided by law. Mr.. Julius was
drawing $4,000. The county attorney
ruled that the minimum applied at
the time of the appointment, but the
county board has the right to raise
it at the July session, which will quite
likely be done.
The choosing of a sheriff has been
a serious problem for the commission
ers. New Ulm businessmen brought
great pressure to bear on the county
board to appoint Mrs. julius. The
board was in secret session from ten
O'Clock in the morning until the mid
die of the afternoon. Sentiment in
New Ulm was strong for Mrs. JUL
ius, but in the three commissioner
districts outside of New Ulm, the pub
lie demanded the appointment of a
man who would personally attend to
the duties of sheriff and that merit

VIM. MEYER, WAR
VETERAN DIES
Minnesota Early Day Settler
Dies at Sons Home in Eden
Thursday, April 10.

In the death of William Meyer last
Thursday, April 10, Eden township
Brown County, lost another of her
odl time settlers, and one of the few
remaining Indian fighters who saw
service during the stirring massacre
days.
Only boy in his teens, Mr.. Meyer
troops in the Union service but he was
not too young to be pressed into SER
vice against the crafty red men when
the scattered homes of the settlers
were burned to the ground and the
settlers themselves having to flee for
safety.
He was living with his parents in
Nicollet county at the time of the
outbreak and first they went to ST.
Peter and then to New Ulm, where
Mr.. Meyer helped defend the city in
two day battle.
The next time he went to Brown
county it was as settler but this
was nearly twenty years after the
Indian had been subdued and pio-
neers had broken up considerable of
the prairie, yet farm conditions were
not well developed. Eden township
was his home for forty-two years
and here is where he passed away at
the home of his son Paul.
The funeral was held Saturday at
the Emmanuel Lutheran church in
Eden. Rev. F. E. Traub, pastor, had
charge of the service. Interment was
made in the church cemetery. Mr..
Meyer had been member of this
church for many years.
William Meyer was born in Han
over, Germany, November II, 1849,
being in his 10Th year. His parents
immigrated to this country when he
was only three years old. They To-
Gated in Illinois but later learned that
many of their countrymen were To-
eating in Minnesota and decided to
come further west themselves and To-
Gated in Nicollet county.
While residing near Nicollet, in
August, 1874, Mr.. Meyer was united
in marriage with Hulda Hopp, who
survives him. They celebrated their
golden wedding anniversary four
years ago this summer. Fourteen
children were born to them, five of
whom are dead.-Morgan Messenger.
