Possibly F.A. Buchholz, chief steward of the Canadian Pacific Railway. See front cover illustration for Turner, Robert D, Sternwheelers and Steam Tugs -- An Illustrated History of the Canadian Pacific Railway's British Columbia Lake and River Service, at 7, Sono Nis Press, Victoria, BC 1984 ISBN0-919203-15-9. It appears that the same photograph was used on the menus of the Bonnington and perhaps other vessels of the B.C. Lake and River Service of the C.P.R. See Turner, at 155, for an example menu with this photograph. This is consistent with a 1912 publication date for this image, as the vessel was placed in service in 1911 with a lot of publicity, including photographs, and taken out of service in 1931.
