a. it does now. When we were on the
road we seldom had more tlSn2en or twelve
girls in the chorus. These We would get
in the towns in which we played
Our advance representative would select
them in each city and put them through
their PAGES. He would probably give them
the chorus music and rehearse them once.
Then the company would come on and
there would be n dress rehearsal We
seldom had any trouble. If there were a
couple OF lines TO be spoken 10y a chorus
girl we always gave the little part 20 the

My first visit to this country lasted three
years. and then went back home 80 get new
costumes. On my return l brought with
me Rose Coghlan and Eliza Weatherby
who afterward married Nat Goodwin.
Bessie Sudlow. an American girl. Joined
my company here. She afterward married
Michael Gum of Savoy opera fame. Miss
Weatherby used TO play my roles when
was IN. On this second visit we went as
far West az San Francisco.
"On my return trip East we played IN
virginia City, which was a pretty rough
place then. There wasn't any railroad
and we had to journey there by stage coach
from Reno We had funny experience in
Virginia City.
As | have told You, we never carried a
chorus with us Well there were no chorus
girl. in Virginia City and when We got
there we were informed that if we wanted
a chorus It would have to bee made up of
men or boys We selected ten or twelve
young men and they certainly were funny

ever. they filed the bill, and a. the people
who paid 20 see them didn't object We

One OF the most distressing things that
happened 10 me in this country occurred
In Chicago. For some reason or other the
proprietor OF a Chicago newspaper took
a great dislike TO me and my company He
branded us in his paper az fit subjects Tor
the consideration Of tho police and said
many nasty things about Va, all Of which
we're untrue.
I'VE stood it as long a. we could. Then
we set about to see what we could do. The
only way we could SEQ out Off was TO horse

man on the street. and gave him a couple

THAT created a sensation, and Miss Mark

roundabout way for fear Of being arrested

THE LEGlsLATURE..THiRD DAY.
THE HOUSE.

| The resolution introduced by Repre-
sentative Harris at yesterday after
/ Moons session of the House for the
placing in the list of appropriations
the sum of $50, 900 as a subsidy for a
freight and passenger steamer to ply
between island ports and the mainland,
was the most important matter brought
UP during the days sitting.
After brief discussion the resolution
was passed to the Miscellaneous Com
mittee despite the absurd objection of
Rep. Kaniho that it was out of order
because it was written on yellow pa
per instead of white.
Rep. Harris also introduced a reso-
luton for the appropriation of $4,000
for advertising Hawatis advantages
and encouraging immigration.
| PAY OF HOUSE OFFICERS.
| There was furry during the morn
| ing session when Pep. Kaleiopu intro
troduced the following resolution:
Resolved, That the salaries of the
different officers of this House shall be
as follows:
CIegk $1,000.
Assistant Clerk, $500.
Interpreter, $1,000.
Stenographer, $1,000.
Sergeant-at-arms, $500.
Messenger, $500.
Janitor, $4.00.
Chaplain. for session. $250.00
Rep. Kaleiopu supported his resolu-
ton with a curious speech, in which he
based his main argument for the large
salaries on the ground that the Repre-
sentatives' chamber is three times as
large as the Senates chamber
Rep. Rice objected to the passage of
such a bill and Rep. Coelho was also
in opposition. Rep. Holstein took a
share in the debate along similar lines
and moved the resolution along 10 the
committee on expenditures.
His motion carried.
Rep. Holstein presented three peti-
tons The citizens of Kau wanted
Hawaii divided into two counties and
also asked for a $500 school house at
Honuapo. North Kohala wanted Il $500
teachers cottage at Honoipu. An ap-
of S25.OO0 was asked for a
road from Puakea TO Nawaihaekai. The
matters were referred to the different
committees concerned.
SPOKE BOTH LANGUAGES.
Rep. Coelho presented a resolution to
the effect that the President of the !
Board of Health be required TO produce
the names of all persons segregated as
lepers: their ages, terms of segrega- |
ton, etc. :
He said that he had been informed |!
by Supt. McVeigh that people who had |
gone over there merely for curiosity !
had made fun of the lepers and he |
thought that this should be prohibited |
The resolution was adopted.
Rep. Fernandez objected when Coel- |
no spoke first in English and then COM
nenced to repeat in Hawaiian. Coel-
40 insisted on his right to do so and
was sustained by the chair.
An appeal from Speaker Knudsen's
,uling failed, only Fernandez support
ng it.
