SANTONS RIVER.

"Streets of New York" will he presented
at Odd Fellows hall on Wednesday and
Thursday evenings next week. This famous
play is rarely presented outside the large
cities, but The local management being pro-
vided with all the necessary scenic and stage
equipment, feel safe in assuring the public II
faithful representation of life in the metropo-
lis as depicted in this great moral and realistic
work. The new scenery, representing Union
Square in winter with the falling snow, ice
effects, etc, and the burning of the tenement
house in five points will alone be worth the
trouble of coming miles to see. The lodge
committee have fulfilled their obligations to
the public in the past and have spared no
time or expense to make this also success.

Harbor.

Passengers and but Few
Are Rescued.
WHITE sEAMEN GO DOWN.
Men From American Cruisers in
Port Pick Up Many of the
Unfor Inmates.

VICTORIA, B. c., May 20-The British
steamer Onwo, 1877 tons, commanded by
Captain Johnson and belonging to the
Indo-China Steamship Company, and the
steamer Newchang, craft of 558 tons,
collided in Woosung harbor on May l
with disastrous results to life and property.
Nearly 300 lives were lost.
The Onwo was on its way out OF the
barbor when they struck, and in less than
ten minutes after the accident it sank,
only the second officer and the third en-
gineer of the crew and officers aboard be-
ing saved. Two hundred and forty-five
Chinese passengers were drowned, while
seventy-fve escaped.
The Newchang was also badly damaged,
but was able to reach shore before sinking.
Many of those saved were picked up by
the boats of American cruisers. several of
which were in port at the time. The
Philadelphia's men lent valuable service.
1t was o'clock in the morning when
the accident occurred and owing to the
darkness and the terrible excitement which
prevailed, men who might otherwise have
been rescued persisted. Further partlcu-
lars of the terrible collision are not re-
corded in the Japanese advices received
to-day by the Empress OF India.

a crew of six Victoria sailors and twenty
native hunters left here for the sealing
grounds early in January. 1t touched at
Tattoo Point, near Cape Cook, and there
received the last of its hunters, then pass :

After the big blow of January 25, which
severely tried the mettle of much larger
craft, the cook of the Penelope picked
