GUSTAvUS ". BROOKE.

This emiHent tragedian, whose sad fate
calls to mind the similar unfortunate
termination of the career Of another
great Irish actor, Tyrone Power, wal
well known in this cou ntry to the dra'
matte world, having at one time held q
high position on the stage. In theii
fortunes Power and Brooke were not
unlike, and they have shared the same
fate-a watery grave in an iron ship.
The President, which never was hea nd
from, carried the first to the bottom, and
now, the second has gone down in the
London; but more fortunate than poor
Power, Brooke was permitted to send q
last message to that world he was leav-
ing forever. We clip the following from
the Londen NeWs:
Down into the waves with so many
others has sunk G. V. Brooke, the
famous tragedian, who was bound for
| the country which had been the scene
of reverse of fortune to him, but pre-
viOusly of many brilliant successes. He
will be remembered as q tall man. of
powerful build, and he is stated by the
rescued passengers to have exerted his
strength TO the utmos. in helping to
keep the ship afioat. The Dutch por-
ton of the crew, twenty-one In number
refused to work, and, according To the
English sailors who were saved. these
men went to their berths and remained
there, so that the passengers had to
work at the pumps weariedly for MANY
hours with the English seanen. MI
Brooke exerted himself necessarily
Attired only in red Crimean shirt and
trowsers, with no hat on, and barefoot
ed, he went backwards and forwards to
the pumps until working at them was
found to be Useless: aud when last seen
about four hours before the steamer
went down-he was leaning with grave
composure upon one of the half-doors
at the companion. His chin was resting
upon both hands, and his arms were on
the top of the door, which he gently
swayed to aud fro, whilst he calmly
watched the scene. One of the passen-
gers who saw him has said: l"He had
worked wonderfully, and, in fact, more
bravely than any man on board of that
ship" To the steward, who made him
self known, Mr.. Brooke said: "If Won
succeed in saving yourself give nv fare.
well to the people of Melbourne.T The
rescued men remember with gratitude
and respect the efforts put forth bv min
listers on board. The Rev. DIR. Wooley.
said to be Bishop, encouraged the pas.
sengers to work at the pumps, i'm which |
he was seconded by the stewardess, who |
had a son on board, and eheered the /
passengers by her collected demeanor |
and constant attentions.
