C, BATUltDAY, MARCH 7, 1891. gp'era house. MoKee Backin Last Bright in The Canuck. A. fair house, the inclemency of the weather considered, saw McKee Rankin in "The Canuck" last night. The play was a new one to a Wilmington audi ence, and as it was unfolded, enchained the audience in rapt attention until the curtain fell. It was a success in every respect. The delicious humor was ir resistible ; the pictures of New England farm life charming in their naturalness. In the interpretation of the character of fohn Cadieux, the Canuck, Mr. Rankin surpassed expectation. His reputation as a conscientious actor of merit was firmly established in this city on the oc casion of his previous visit. 'But in this character of the Ca nadian farmer Mr. Rankin appears to far better advantage than in the previous roles he has essayed. This may be due partly to the high order of the play, but is also evidence of his advancement to a higher plane in the histronic art. Mr. Cowles as Gyrus Stebbins was very good. His interpretation of the character shows close study into the nature and heart of the typical Veymonter; an ac quaintance with the life of the man he essayed to create; a minute attention to details in the representation; all evi dencing the artist. Miss Mabel Bert in the dual role of Archange and Angelique was very pleasing. The supporting com pany contributed greatly to make the performance the success it was. RIVER AND MARINh. Commissioner of Navigation Bates has issued 3 circular to collectors of cus toms relating to an act of Congress, ap proved February 21, which is of great importance to vessel owners and mas ters.

Free raw sugar will be an importation on April 1, and a heavy advance in price this month and a sugar famine was feared in consequence. Mr. Henry O. Havemeyer say on the subject. "There is no danger of a sugar famine. With the exception of Havemeyer & Elder all the sugar refiners in the United States have given the $100,000 bonds, and are working the raw sugars in bonds according to the regulations of the Treasury Department. These bond ed sugars can be withdrawn during March by paying rates of duty similar to the amount of the drawback formerly al lowed on exportations. Under those rates granulated sugar would cost for March consumption 7 cents. The same sugar for April has been sold at 43 cts. It is an advantage to the consumers. There can be no sugar famine if consu mers are willing to pay 7 cents a pound for sugar this month as against 6 cts. a pound at the same time last year. The Havemeyer & Elder Company will give bonds next week. Contracts entered in to during last year prevented the com pany from giving bonds when the other companies did." - Capt. Jas. D. Cumming, of New York, is hi the city. "Weather Forecasts.
