Give Up Hope of Rescuing
Crew of Steamer Myron
By Associated Press.
Sault Ste Maie, Mich., Nov. 26.
Owners of the lake steamer Myron,
lost in the storm that swept Lake
Superior Saturday, had practically
given up hope last night of rescuing
any of the sixteen members of the
crew who were taking to the boats
just as the Vessel went down ten
miles off whitefiah Point.
The submarine chaser 438 search
ed the region of the Parisian Islands
to-day without finding trace of the
crew or the lifeboats. It was in that
vicinity that Captain Walter R. Neal.
! apparently the sole survivor, was
! picked up by the steamer Franz and
it was thought some of the boats
might have drifted in that direc
tion with the wreckage to which the
commander clung for twenty hours
before being rescued.
It is generally conceded by ma
rine men that enough time has'
elapsed to hear from members of
the crew had they been picked up
by passing vessels.

DISAPPOINTMENT
With Helen Ware in Very
Mediocre Performance
at the Orpheum
After waiting patiently through
the evening for something to happen,
one of the largest audiences that
Harrisburg has provided in a long
time, liscovered that tho curtain had
come down and "The Lure of Gold"
was over. "Lou Tellegen, who col
laborated with Andor Garvey tn the
writing of It, had failed to put it
over.
The one redeeming feature of the
performance was the scenery of the
Canadian forest, which was worthy of
Belasco. That and the acting of
Hedwig Reicher, as the faithful
Flores. Kept some of tlge audience
awake: others were roused from their
doze by the noisily-impossible climax
of the second act.
Lou Tellegen and Helen Ware
would have liked to act and act
wonderfully, but they would only
converse. Harrisburg, although it
showed very poor manners by laugh
ing loudly at one of the scenes,
has been "done" again which is un
fortunate.
