CIRCUS lAND GRAND ARMY.
BENEFIT rendered by MIR. wirth to Geo
w. DE Long Post.

w. DE Long Post.
Geo. w. de Long Post, No. 45,
Grand Army of the Republic,
have been offered a benefit by Mr..
Harry Wirth, proprietor of the
circus. The offer has been accepted
and, in all probability, the per-
Torrance will be given on or about
Feb. IL.
This post was organized in Sep
tember, 1882, and soon gained q
large membership, which on ac-
count of death has rapidly de-
creased until at present there are
but twenty-five members. Shortly
after organizing burial plot was
purchased, which is now filled up
and need OF new one is urgent.
The proceeds of the benefit will
go toward securing one, erecting
monuments thereon, etc.
Messrs j. N. Wright, past post
commander; r. j. Green, COM
mander; l.. Adler, senior vice-com-
mander, and James Dodd, a mem
Der of Garfield post, San Fran
cisco, have the affair in hand, and
at a meeting held at ten o'clock
this morning arrangements we're
about completed.
Notice of progress and further
particulars will be given on Mon
day next. Mr.. Dodd has given
much time toward arranging mat
ters, and the action of himself and
the other gentlemen mentioned
was spontaneous and entirely un-
solicited. From Mr.. Wirth they
met with hearty desire to CO.
operate in making the affair a
grand success, as it ought to be.
The object is most worthy, and it
is hoped that everybody in Homo
lulu will assist.
