Wintermeier, died at tlie home of the latter In Eugene Wednesday, March. 20, 1918. Mr. Gossler had been ill for some , time. The body is at the Gordon and Veateh chapel and funeral arrangements await the arrival of a daughter, Mrs. W. H. Curtis, of Cherokee, Iowa. The in terment will be in the Odd Falows ceme- ' 'A TRIBUTE. ' ' The timo comes to all of ns when those we loved, quietly pass through that cur tain of twilight we call death. We who are left behind and in life called him father and friend take pleasure in listen ing to tl e memories he left behind. And when mi the 30th day of March, 1918, the spirit: of William H. Gos.j'-r was called by its Maker from its material abode, and all that waa mortal was laid to rest by true and loving hands, to some it may appear that he has gone forever, but to those who knew him his memory will ever be a Jiving thing. Mr. Gossler was born at Banbury, Fens., in 1834. On August 21, 1868, at Lower Augusta, Pena, he married Char lotto Weaver. In the early part of their married life they moved to. southeastern Iowa, which at that time waa a wilder ness. But there came to him now and then a few words of a wonderful country on the Pacific coast. The wonderful posibllities of the Oregon soil and cli mate found a responsive cord in him, and from that time to his dying day there has never been a more ardent lover of the magnificent Willamette valley. In 1892 he began to prepare for the Journey to the Padfio coast, and in the spring of 1898 he started for that country that he loved. And yet, his Journey waa one of sorrow, for Just prior to his departure he lost that true companion whom he hoped to win back to health in this new won derful country. Mrs. Gossler died on the 22nd day of February, 1893, and her body is laid at rest at Ida Grove, Iowa. Upon his arrival -at Eugene, Or., he purchased a farm. This farm he sold in 1900 and after investing in Springfield and Eugene property he retired from active work. Since 1904 he has made bis home with his daughter, Mrs. C. A. Wintermeier. Mr. Gossler started In life without i dollar, but by his fine business qualifica tions made a success of every enterprise in which he was engaged in. He loved bis wife with a lore that is seldom surpassed and his constancy to her memory was characteristic of his love for her, when living and after her death he lived for his children, and no thought that would in any manner reflect upon the welfare of his children ever found itself in his mind. Mr. Gossler professed the Christian religion and was a life-long member of the Methodist church. He died as he had lived, loving and loved by his chil dren and cheered by their presence at his bedside and trusting in the saving power of Christ he peacefully laid down his tired body and went to rest beside his youngest son, William H. Gossler, Jr. The funeral services will be conducted at the Gordon and Veatch chapel upon the arival of Mrs. Curtis from Iowa, by Rev. J. T. Abbott, of Portland, and Rev. George H. Parkinson, of this city. He leaves to mourn his loss the follow ing children: Nelson B., Philip M., Emoiy W., Mrs. B. F. Goodpasture and Mrs. C. A. Wintermeier, all who live in and near Eugene; Mrs. D. P. Day, of Bellinghum, Wash., and Mrs. M. H. Cur tis, of Cherokee, Iowa. Besides the sons and daughters he leaves 23 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He will be lsid to rest in the I. O. O. F. cemetery. AMUSEMENTS ENGLISH OPERA COMING The BoBton English Opera company, which by its excellent work during Its four months run in Chicago, haa become the talk of the musical world, comes to the Eugene Theatre, Wednesday, March 27. In spite of the many attempts during recent years, it remained for this organ IzaJtion to prove that opera could be pre sented by a capable company, and per formances of the standard operas given in so creditable a manner as to leave little to be desired. It has shown that proper business arrangement, combined with the art of knowing how, can give the public real performances of opers at prices ithey can afford. With such artistis as Joseph F. Shee han, John W. Warren. Hasel Eden, Florentine St. Clair, Elaine De Sellem, Alice May Carley, Arthur Deane, Fran cis J. Tyler, W. R. Northway and many others, there can be no doubt aa to the excellence of the performance, particu larly when augmented by a chorus such as one seldom hears nowadays, it is not surprising ghat the advent of this organ isation in the west haa proved Just as welcome, and Is the talk of theatrical circles here, aa it was in the cast, during its four months season in Chicago. The press and public of San Francisco endorsed the verdict of the east and pro claimed the Boston English Opera com pany America's finest singing organiia-tlon.

Peter B. Kyno, author of "A Mau'n Man," has a hnppr faculty of wrltln stories that not only grip you In the reading, but which make corking picture plays. "A Man's Man" is no exception. It has been adroitly adapted to the screen by Tom Geraghty. The story carries one to South Amer ica, where a one-cylinder republic de mands the attention of a Yankee like Kerrigan. He gets mixed up in any number of fights, and shows himself a scrapper. Indeed, the first thing in which it appears' a man should qualify nowadays for screen work is a course in athletics. Mr. Kerrigan knows how to fight in more picturesque ways than even Douglas Fairbanks, and ho has something of that gentleman's cheery insouciance while doing it. But moat of all, "Jack" Kerrigan has at last an opportunity to prove himself the actor he really is, virile, forceful, yet conveying a fine sense of the dramatic We shall look forward to great things from Mr. Kerrigan. Lois Wilson is the charming heroine, daugh ter of the president of the South Amer ican country. The story is full of strong situations, smashing climaxes, real originality of plot. In fact, no fan can afford to miss it. It is told With wonderful clearness, and the photography demands s para graph all to itself. The cast is an excellent one, and. in cludes Kenneth Harlan, Ed Coxen, Ida Lewis (who does gome really wonderfi'l work as "Mother Jenks"), Harry von Meter, Eugene Pallette, Ernest Pasiuo, Arthur Allardt, Joseph J. Dowllng, John Stepping and Wallace Worsley. To be seen at the Eugene theatre Friday and Saturdoy, March 22-23. Robblns caused the babe's death by slow torture covering a period of several months. .
