REPORTS DEEDS OF
 CANADIAN HEROES
WOUNDED COMRADES BROUGHT BACK TO LINES DESPITE
 ACTIVITY OF SNIPERS.

OTTAWA, May 20.-An official report of the daring deeds of Can adians in rescuing wounded com rades on the front was received at the militia department today. Many of the deeds were accomplished at terrific bombardment that lasted two days,
 A particularly daring reconnais- sance, recounted by the eye wit ness, is that by patrol of the Royal Highlanders, who advanced to within twenty yards of the Ger man trench. Two sergeants then crept up to the trench itself, ex- amined it for twenty-five yards and then wrenched sniper's plate from it's parapet and brought it back to the lines under fire while an enemy searchlight revealed their retreat.
 On one occasion French Cana dian corporal, J M Lemieux, dur ing a heavy fire, rushed across 200 yards of open ground to assist a wounded comrade, shot by sniper, and succeeded in bringing him back safely to the lines.
 Another rescue was effected by two other French Canadians, Noel Savard and Joel Boiselle, who saw comrade fall in the open. The two men rushed out and also sue ceeded in bringing back the injured man in spite of heavy fire of snipers. Private Patrick Costello, of the Royal Highlanders. crawled out
  in broad daylight between the lines and brought back a wounded com rade.
 A British aeroplane that fell ip "No Mans Land" was the occasion of an eight-day battle between tine two sides. Efforts of the Canadians to reach the bodies of the aviator and observer We're beaten off by

KRAUSE CASE NEARLY READY FOR THE JURY
 
(Juneau Empire.)

The fourth case against Edward Krause will probably be given to the jury for decision late this af- ternoon, if the attorneys finish their arguments, both being the same nature, but different crimes and they are being tried together.
 In this case Krause is alleged to have forged the signature of K. Ya- mamoto to two papers which pro- vided for the payment, of certain sums of money to Krause and also for the transferring the entire bank account of Yamamoto to Krause. The testimony in this case is prac- tilally a repetition of the testi- money in the case which just pre- ceded and which resulted in con viction of Krause for fraudulent use of the mails. =
 The extreme penalty for this crime is 20 years on each charge. and if found guilty on both the court may give him the limit of 40 years which makes a maximum penalty of 7S years which can be given by the court on all convict ions so far.

NIKADO SCORES
 TREMENDOUSHIT
AUDIENCE APPLAUDS ITS AP- IRRIGATION AND ENTHUS- IASTIC APPROVAL OF
 COMPIC OPERA.

Under the auspices of the Ketchi- kan Lyceum the Mikado was pre- sented to crowded house last night at Red Mems Hall, and it may truthfully be said that another fea- ther has been added to Ketchikan's musical cap, of which she has many. and of which she can be justly proud. The Mikado is charming travesty On Japan and has been the greatest popular favorite of all comic operas since it's original pro- duction in the eighties, and curious ly enough it was this opera which first anticipated the rise of modern Japan. It has many musical gems and is ranked highest among the pure English classics in comrc operas.
 In it's Japanese setting of scenery and costumes, the effect was pie turesque and pretty indeed as the curtain rose on the first act.
 Lawrence Erickson, as Pish Tuch. a noble lord, is the first to- be heard in solo work and he does his "bit" admirably we'll, both in acting and in singing, and fully competent in the part.
 Pooh Bah, retailer of state sec rets at low figure, is character taken by Walter Janggen, who makes it big success. His bass voice was heard to advantage and in action he was all that Pooh Bah called for.
 The comedy of the opera falls principally upon Ko Ko. the Lord High Executioner. This part is talk en by Osborne Williams, who scores another big hit in the original and clever interpretation of this char acter. His voice of great power

German machine g'lnfre until Prf- yates H. H, Finlay and-W Gregory both of British Columbia, sapped out forty-fivs feet, reaching the wrecked machine, and brought back the bodies and tha aeroplane gun.
 Private A. R, Mowatr, of Van ,ouver, volunteering as stretcher bearer, was struck down by she'll and seriously wounded. Notwith- standing his wounds, he continued until he was wounded some twenty times when he was carried back in- to the lines.

were all very melodious and es- pecially pleasing. The chorus and soloists have distinguished them selves beyond the hopes of their most ardent admirers, while Martin E. Robinson, the director, should not be forgotten, as his master hand was evidenced in the finished pro duction of the opera. Those who haven't seen Mikado by this com pany might we'll take advantage of this last performance to witness a most pleasing and satisfactory presentation of this rare comedy

and mellow sweet tones was never heard to better advantage than in that beautiful gem, the "1it Will ow" number.
 As sweet singing lover, Theo- dore Browne makes a most ac- ceptable Nanki Poo. He has a splendid tenor of good range and knows how to use it most effective ly.
 MT. T. J. Pennell gives a fine conception of the "Mikado." His excellent baritone voice and dra- matic abaility, admirably portray this character of royal importance and pompousness.
 Mrs. A. B. Edmonds scored high in the success of the opera, both for her clever acting and the beau tifiil qualities of a supberb contraIto voice.
 In the star role of Yum Yum Mrs. c. c. Collens is all that is sweet and dainty. Her Moon and r was exquisitely rendered; her clear lyric soprano, with it's sweet and pearly diction, and the ease with which she sings is a joy to her listeners.
 Mrs. Warder is very enticeing Pitt Sing and does her part like a professional. Her conception of the school girl is a natural and de- lightful one, while her voice has very pleasing qualities.
 Miss Ruth Hall, as Peep Bo, was the third maid of this charming trio. and though hers was a minor. role where her sweet lifting soprano was but little heard, yet her part was charmingly done. The appearance and singing of these "Three Little Maids"' was the prettiest and most pleasing feature of the opera.
 The entire performance was splen- didly supported at the piano by Miss Martha Foosness, Ketchikan's most talented young musician.
 Among the gems of the Mikado, the dainty Brightly Dawns Our Wedding Day" is the most beautiful example of the Madrigale in ex- istence, for quartett number "The Flowers That Bloom In The Spring" "He's Gone and Married Yum Yum," "My Object all Sublime" and 'Be- hold the Lord High Executioner"

 As to the cause of the war, the Army and Navy Journal tells the following story as having been re- lated in debate before the City Club at Hartford, Conn.
 "Who caused the war;" That is long story. Richard Harding Davis went to Europe to find out that was his business as re- porter. He went into Bucking- ham Palace and said:
 "Now, George, on the level, as between two friends, who caused this rumpus ?"

COLLECTOR
RIVERS Mcneil

Chicago of the Laws They
Must Obey.

So much trouble was experienced
last year with persons who did not
understand the motor boat laws and
who, when arrested for violation, said
they did not know where they could
get copies Of the laws, that Rivers
Mcneil, collector Of customs, has in.
stituted a plan to give every motor.
boat owner chance to get the laws
this year.
Mr.. Mcneil is sending to the post.
master Of every town along the I'LL.
nois river and the Mississippi river
to the southern boundary of the state
letters asking them to supply motor
boat owners with copies Of the act
which he will send to the post Offices.
Last season 100 boats In the riv.
ers were boarded by the crews Of the
United States coast guard boats pa.
trolling the rivers to enforce the law"
said Mr.. Mcneil. II should much
prefer to supply motor boat owners
with copies of the regulations and the
pilot rules and thus prevent viola
tions rather than than impose q pen.
atty after violation, particularly
where It was committed through ig.
norance of the law"
