Prince Rupert the latter part of
December to visit his father in
Sheffield, England, returned to
the city on the Prince George this
morning. He is looking extreme-
ly well after his trip and is glad
to report that his father has
quite reeovered from his illness.

In England, business condi-

manufacturers are almost
swamped with the orders that
have piled up on them. The
weather in the old country dur-

fine but March was wet and un-
pleasant,

Mr. Parkin returned via New

“TEDDY” 1S FORGOTTEN

Colonel Roosevelt Testifies That
He Never Drank a High-
ball.

(Special to The Daily News.)

Marquette, Mich., May 28.—
Colonel Roosevelt was on the
witness stand yesterday, in the

trial of his libel suit against Edi-

tor Newett. He testified that he
had never drank a highball nor
a cocktail; that he does not

smoke but drinks beer and takes
liquors only as medicine.

On his way here the one time
president of the United States
spent two hours and forty minu-
lies in Chieago, learning how hol-

 

liow and fleeting is fame, He re-
ceived his lesson at the door of
the Lincoln Park animal house.

row cop,” who the colonel de-
leided later on must have voted

NO DISAPPOL
IN “PRINCESS CHIC”?
Bostonians Exceiled Themselves

in A Difficult Production at
the Westhoime Last Night.

 

Since the first announcement
that the
during their present engagement
would present Kirke La Selle and
Juilan Edwards’ famous produc-
tion, “The Chic,”’ the
theatre going public of Prince
Rupert has looked forward to its
presentation with the greatest of

Juvenile Bostonians

Princess

interest and possibly with some
degree of misgiving as to the
ability of a company of juveniles

to handle successfully a comedy
requiring the best efforts of sea-
soned actors. The packed house
that witnessed the presentation
at the Westholme last evening
was evidence thet the Bostonians
in five different bills since open-
ing their engagement have dem-
onstrated that they do not under-
take anything beyond them and
it is safe to say the expectations
of every of the large
audience were more than real-
ized. The scenery was beautiful,
the costumes gorgeous and the
music extremely pretty, with suf-
ficient humor throughout to keep
even the most sedate in roars of
laughter. The plot which was
somewhat more than ordinarily
interesting introduced several
notable persons in French his-
tory, the Princess Chic of Nor-
mandy finally winning the love of
the Duke of Burgundy.

Patsy Henry as Chambertin,
stewart to the Duke, was as usual
the star comedian of the com-
pany while Dixie White and Stub-
by Myling as soldiers of fortune
were exceptionally funny.

In the musical numbers Thom
Hellen’s rendering of “I Hear
You Calling Me” was beyond
question the feature of the even-
ing. She responded to repeated
encores. She also renderea ‘Weak
as a Woman” and “Come Love,

member

Go Love’ in a most pleasing
manner. “That's How I Need
You” by Blanche Ogden in the

last act was also a favorite and
was again and again encored,
The duett “The Story Book” by
Vera Lockhart and Ina Mitchell
is a very pretty song and was
well rendered. The trio “A Sol-
dier of Fortune” and the quar-
tetie “How Are We to Know”
were of a humorous’ character
and brought forth hearty ap-
plause. Doris Canfield in “Roll-
ing” brought down the house,

Beyond doubt the Juvenile Bos-
tonians are living up to the repu-
tation they have established and
the splendid notices re-
ceived elsewhere.

tor car, broke the world’s record

AMERICAN VISITORS
ARE OPTIMISTIC

Men Pay First Visit to
Prince Rupert.

Messrs. H. E. Parkhurst and
W. G. Fortmann of San Franci-
sco, arrived in the city by the

Prince George this morning and
are registered at the G. T. P. Inn.
Both gentlemen are interested in
the fire insurance business and
are en route to various points in
Alaska to look over the situation
in that territory. They expect to
leave for Ketchikan tomorrow
evening. Interviewed by a “News”
reporter they said they were most
favorably impressed with Prince
Rupert on this, their first visit to
the city. Considering the many
difficult problems the city has had
to grapple with they were sur-
prised to see that such wonder-
ful development had taken place
in so short a period. They are
optimistic as to the city’s magni-
ficent future.

CY WARMAN TO BE GUEST
OF CANADIAN CLUB

Eminent Writer Will Be Guest of
Honor at Luncheon on Sat-
urday.

Cy Warman, the noted Canad-
ian writer who arrived in the
city on Saturday last, has been
invited by the Canadian Club of
this city to be the guest of honor
at a luncheon at the G. T. P. Inn
on Saturday of this week. Fred
Schaefer, representing the News-
paper Enterprise Association of
San Francisco, who has the repu-
tation of being a humorist of
more than the average type, will
also be a guest. The members
of the Canadian Club will un-
doubtedly enjoy a rare treat in
hearing these distinguished writ-
ers.

Mr. Warman and Mr. Schaefer
returned last evening from a trip
to the end of steel, the guests of

General Superintendent Mehan.
Both were delighted with the
magnificent scenery along the

line and extremely optimistic as
to the future development of the
interior both from an agricul-
tural and a mineral standpoint.

Tomorrow they wi!!l be the
guests of the Canadian Fish &
Cold Storage Co., Ltd., on the

trawler “James Carruthers”. Mr.
Warman is particularly anxious
to get first-hand information
concerning the great fishing in-
dustry that promises so much for
Prince Rupert. They will be
taken to the fishing banks where
the immense quantities of hali-
but are now being harvested.

 

Raid on Opium Joint.

At midnight last night the po-
lice raided the place of King Tai
off Fulton street, and arrested
six Chinese, two of whom were
then smoking opium, They were
brought up in the police court
this morning and were each fined
$35 and costs, it being a second
offence with most of them, Two
smoking outfits were confiscated.

 

 

Ordered to Leave Town.

Two Indian women, Emily Ryan
and Martha McKay, were brought
up before magistrate Caras
charged with creating a nuisance
on the streets and were ordered

 

to leave the city.

The Butte and Rocher de Boule
Mining Co. are now prepared to
begin operations on the Highland
Boy group which they purchased
last winter upon the report and
recommendation of P. J. Jenn-
ings who was here all last year.
Mr. Jennings is in town again
and he will have charge of the
work this year. He stated to the
Herald that his company had
$20,000 available for develop-
ment purposes and that they
were going to get busy immed-

jiately. He is leaving for the
mine Sunday and upon arrival
will first erect a camp on _ the

Highland Boy claim close to the
tunnel site. A trail about a mile
long has to be built to connect
the Highland Boy with the Roch-
er de Boule, but as there is con-
siderable snow on the top of the
mountain yet a snow trail will be
made first to enable them to get
supplies in and to get the work
under way. On the property is a
small basin through which the
veins run, thus giving an ideal
tunnel site. The company will

drive several hundred feet into
the vein. They will get a depth

of 500 or 600 feet and the devel-
opment will be in ore all the
time. As soon as the necessary
preliminary work is done Mr.

(Special to The Daily News.)

Calgary, May 28—At the trial
of the prize fighters and promo-
ters yesterday the crowr set
aside the verdict of the coroner's
jury exonerating Pelkey and those
connected with the fight, on two
grounds; first that Coroner Cas-
tello had no right to sit as cor-
oner in the case because he had
attended the fight, and second,
because the jury was padded by
friends of Burns. Upon this rul-
ing by the Court MeCarney, man-
ager for the fighter MeCarty who
died in the ring Saturday, and
Referee Smith were taken into
custody and placed upon their
defence.

Explorer Wright Invited

A hearty invitation has been
extended by the Vancouver Ca-
nadian Club to Dr. Charles 8.
Wright, of the Scott Antarctic
expedition, to address the local
club at whatever date will be most
convenient for him, when he
passes through Vancouver on his
way from Prinee Rupert to his
home in Toronto.

 

Another Red Devil.

The fire committee reported to
the council last night in favor
of purchasing another Red Devil,
at a cost of $7,650, similar to the
one at present in use by the fire
department, and on the motion of
Ald. Sutherland the report was
adopted.

E. F. Doyle returned this morn-
ing after spending a couple of
weeks in the lower coast cities.
Some of his most intimate friends
were surprised to see him re-
turn alone.

The cases of pugilist Pelkley,
and his manager Tommy Burns,
ex-champion of the world, were
first heard, and after evidence
both were committed for trial on
the charge of manslaughter.

sion of the assize court will be
ealled for the trial of these and
other committments that may be
made in connection with the death
of MeCarty.
