By the next mail TO the Coast an
application for a charter OF the Ho-
nOluIu Camp OF the Sons of Veter-
ans will be forwarded to Division
Commander Louis L. Schroeder OF
San Francisco. The first meeting
of those interested in the organiza
ton OF the Hawaiian branch OF the
society was held last evening in
the American League Hall. The
attendance was not large, owing to
many of the prospective members
being obliged to be present at the
drill shed, but there were enough
there to assure the success OF the
move, although it will be some
weeks before the camp has settled
down to the regular routine.
The members of the Grand Army
Post took the matter up at their
meeting last evening and will do
all possible to assist the new organ
ization which is to keep bright the
memory of the veterans after they
have been placed on the retired list.
Up to the present time some
twenty men in Honolulu have given
proof of their eligibility to become
members of the Sons of Veterans,
Ia
regulars at the barracks and in the
volunteer companies are looking up
the back history OF their families
in order to join the ranks of the
new camp.
Those who may be considered
the prime movers in the project
are: L. X. McGrew, J. F. Hilbus,
William HI. Smith, John w. Short,
G. B. Manages, George Overback,
George Dillingham;, J. K. Kelley,
w. G.. Wilder, Jr., Harry Wilder,
J. J. Green, Louis Adler, T. B.
Murray, Charles Murray, Messrs.
Rowell and Peterson. Minister
Cooper, w. w. Dimond, and Messrs.
Goodale OF Hawaii are also among
the possible members.
The meeting last evening was
given up principally to discussion
of ways and means, an explana-
ton of the requirements of mem
bership and the suggestion of the
names of those who were eligible
to Join the ranks. During the
latter part of the evening Past |
Commander O. H. Harlan, Phil |
Sheridan Post No. Al, of Tacoma,
Wash, addressed the meeting and |
gave an interesting talk on the
aims of the organization and of the
good work which Honolulu mem
bers had before them. Like the
Grand Army Post, the Sons of
Veterans Camp will be included
in the California Division for
which the following officers were
elected at the last State encamp-
ment in Sacramento:

Her First Appearance.

Mary Anderson De Navarro in her
stage career memoirs, which will be
published in the Ladies' Home journal
the opening chapter in the December
issue,) gives the public a most inter
estlng and entertaining view of the
trials and hardships she successfully
combated in following out her convic-
tons that the stage presents to her the
opportunity for a splendid career.
She exultantly refers to her debut in
Louisville, Kentucky. on Saturday
evening. November p, 1885, OH which

girl of sixteen interpreted Shakes
peare's love-lorn Juliet" The per-
formance was arranged upon two days
notice-time for but a single rehearsal
and the aspiring Kentucky girl was
Jubilant when the theatre and stock
company were offered her, upon con-
ditions that she play without pay. Her
happiness, however, was not unclouded
for of the event she writes with touch
ing pathos: That Thursday" (the day
that her first appearance was arranged
was one Of the happiest days Of all my
life, filled as it was with the brightest
hope and anticipation. Only one black
cloud hung over it; the thought of
Nome and my grand parents who were
all very dear to me. Had [ known
then that | would never see the face of
the former, that he would die, my
mother and | far from him, and that
almost until his death be would refuse
to forgive or see me unless | abandoned
the stage-life which he thought so in
Jurlous-nay sinful would even then
have renowned what was within my
grasp. This estrangement saddened
many years of my life, and has cast
shadow over all the otherwise bright
and happy memories of him who was
the father. friend and playmate of our
childhood days"
Mrs. DeNavarro evidently did not
suffer from stage fright, the crushing
terror of debutantes Tor she writes that
she stood impatiently waiting for her
cue" to go on. At last it came, Then
