Gus Williams.

Opera house, Owosso, Wednesday, March
18TH Toledo Bee, Sept Is, 'S7, says:
'Keppler's Fortunes" as personated by the
cver-welcOme Gus Williams and his excel
lent troupe at Wheeler's last evening, was
thoroughly enjoyed by an audience which
filled the house. The play; recently and ex-
pressly written for Mr.. Williams gives him
rich and wide field for that humorous de-
lineation of the German character for
which he is so famous. The plot is held to-
gether by series of amusing situations and
frightened by catchy songs, sung as only
Gus Williams can sing them. The rise and
fall OF the vain but ever-hOnest Tcuton
brings to the surface all that Is good with
some that Is evil in the human character.
The fidelity to old friends and honest alb
florence of dishonesty when circumstances
make him immensely, but fortunately fOi
his own peace Of mind only temporarily
wealthy more than counterbalances tn,
vanity displayed In the futile and amusinl
attempts to excel in the high station t.
which he believed his newly-acquired riches
give him clear and undisputed title. The
cast OF characters is strong.

who for few minutes stirred the happy
memories and ''the light fantastic toes" of
some OF the guests as though they were all

Altogether, the occasion was most enjoy
able, and 1t was not until near midnight

Passengers Of the Denmark Rescued
LONDON, April 21.-By the arrival ol
the steamer Eutruria it is learned that
on the morning Of the 9Th OF April the
steamer Missouri on her voyage from
this port to Philadelphia, fell in with
the disabled steamer Danmark and
offered her assistance. This, the
Captain accepted, and knowing the sea-
worthiness of bis ship thought she
could be towed. At this time the Dan
mark Xas pr0NssdiaG. .Rp1sa-Gail, -hsz
engines having become disabled.
The Missouri offered to give the
Danmark o tow. This offer was ac-
cepted and after much difficulty line
was taken from the disabled steamer
to the Missouri, and the heaviest chain
cable brought her up. The Missouri is
slow vessel and was heavi y laden, SO
progress was nece sarily slow. a squall
coming up making things look very
bad. Soon its course changed and the
Danmark began to start new leaks.
On the sixth the case seemed hopeless.
There was SO much water in the hold
that she lost her balance and every
time she hove with the trough of the
sea the passengers thought it would
be the last plunge. The Missouri
stopped and Capt. Kundsen then went
aboard and after a short conference
with Captain Morverill from the
Missouri it was agreed to jetison por-
ton of the cargo. This relieved the
Danmark of 12l tons. The work OF
jetsononing the ca'go and transferring
the passengers began simultaneously.
Before night all of the Danmark's
were transferred on board
the Missouri and the order given to let
go the cable. The passengers were
each allowed to take q reasonable kit
of clothing and personal effects but
this was necessarily limited. Many
lost heavily.
The nearest land was the Azores and
the bow of the Missouri was turned to-
ward it. Nothing of incident occurred
to mar this part of the journey. The
gale having subsidized, on the arrival at
Azores the Missouri landed 320
Capt. Kundsen, with
the first and second officers,
three engineers and AZ sailors, togeth-
er with 40 passengers and the rest of
the crew Of Missouri then sailed for

that the poles on the Tacoma and

Northern Pacific will not recede from

TORONTO, April pa special from
Ottawa to the Empire, The government
organ, says: Colonel Prior some day
next week will initiate discussion in
the house with reference to the
Behring sea seizures. The people OF
British Columbia are anxious to secure
a termination of the unpleasantness
which has existed for the last three
years, and until the question OF juris.
diction in Behring sea is determined
some irritation is likely to exist. It is
understood that negotiations are still
in progress on the subject, and the
general bslief is that there will be an
international conference to deliberate
on the question of whether or not
Behring sea is a mare cldusun.
The prepo-terous claim of the Uni
ted States to exclusive jurisdiction in
those waters is one that affects all the
great maritime powers. France, Ger
many and Italy are almost as much
interested as Great Britain and Can
ada, and the support OF the govern
ment of these countries is confidently
relied upon to sustain the contention
of the Canadian government.
At the presen, juncture the premier
will doubtless not feel justified in
speaking as openly on the question as
he or the people of British Columbia
would like, but doubtless he will be
able to give such assurance as will sat
isfy the country that the government
has not been neglectful of his duty or
of Canada's interests.
A special from Victoria, B. c., on
the subject says: The seal fishers are
going out armed and prepared to resist
seizure by the American cutters. The
Globe, commenting on the possibility
OF conflict, says: In order to OBJ
viate this danger, the British govern
ment should order q man-of-war to
protect Canadians in Behring sea, or
should plainly abandon the apparently
shallow pretense that Great Britain
will stand by Canada's rights against
any American aggre 'sion whatever"
