BOOKED As DRUNK;
SKULL FRACT TURED

, At twenty minutes to u clock
Monday night James McGannOn was
found lying on the sidewalk in front
of the Criterion, and, as he was bleed
ing slightly at the mouth, he was sent
to the Queen s Hospital in the patrol
wagon. The doctor made an examina-
tion, but found no wounds or anything
TO indicate that he had suffered an in.
jury, but his breath was heavy with the
fumes of liquor. He was thereupon
returned to the patrol wagon, takfn
to the police station, booked as a
drunk and placed in cell overnight.
Early yesterday morning Sergeant
Nelson in making his rounds, looked in
upon McGannon and came to the con.
clusion that his long sleep was due to
something more than liquor. He sent
him to the hospital again, and while the
man was undergoing a second examina
tion, he expired A later examination
revealed a fracture of the skull just
over the left eye, a wound which was
not apparent to the glance.
Ex-Governor Carter, one of the hos
pital trustees, referred to this ease
while he was before the Board of Su
pervisors last night, stating that the
rumor that the man was not admitted
to the hospital at all, was incorrect
The mans condition pointed to the fact
that he was very much under the inhu
ence of alcohol and he was returned
to the police. The examination of the
surgeon did not reveal any wounds.
Deputy Sheriff Rose stated yester
day that he learned that the factur,
did not show through the skin at all
The stories of fight are not borne on
by the statements of witnesses. A
far as known McGannon fell down ol
the sidewalk and his head came il
sharp contact with the pavement. II,
was picked up almost Immediately anC
held until the police arrived.
According to Sheriff Jarrett 8 in
formation McGannon dropped in herr
at the time of the Big Four squadron I

An inquest will be held at the police
station tonight.

WHITNEY To CONSTRuE
LAW ALL HIS OWN

W, L. Whitney, First Deputy Attor-
ney-General, will probably have the
rather unusual good fortune of inter.
preting the provisions of law that was
drawn up by himself, Mr.. Whitney will
begin his duties as Judge of the Circuit
Court as soon as notification is received
from Washington of the confirmation
of his appointment by the Senate. He
succeeds to the vacancy created by the
resignation of Judge Alexander Lind,
say, to whom Chief Justice Hartwell
assigned the juvenile court work. 1t
is presumed that Judge Whitney will
also have the juvenile court, and in that
capacity will have the pleasant task of
constituting statute written by him
self.
The juvenile delinquency law that now
prevails was passed at the last Legis.
lature and was drawn almost in its en-
tirety by Judge Whitney. Because of
his familiarity with the juvenile delin-
qnency laws of the mainland, and his
practical knowledge gained as Dis
trict Court Magistrate, the work of
framing the bill was assigned to him
and now the fates seem to will that he
should interpret it.

MANY BLANK DAYS
(FrOm Wednesdays Advertissr.) }

After lying unconscious for several
days in the Palama Hospital and then
becoming semi-conscious, A. B. Black
stad, who was injured on April 23, re-
gained his senses yesterday morning
and talked nationally about himself and
others. He has been under the care of
DR.. Cooper, who, all along, felt assured
his patient would recover.
Mr.. Blackstad, who was a brakeman
on the Wahiawa train, was struck by
water pipe of the Oahu plantation
which crosses over the o. r. G. l.. track.
He was thrown to the ground and on
his head. Both blows were severe.
Blackstad was rendered unconscious
! and remained so until yesterday, when
he suddenly opened his eyes and re.
cognized a relative who entered the
room at that moment. He asked how
long he had been lying in the room,
and when told that it was Monday he
counted on his fingers from Friday to
Monday and remarked that he had
been laid up four days. He was sur
| prised when told that another Friday
and week had intervened as WELL
Although quite weak, he is expected
to pull through all right, his strong
constitution being in his favor. He
was once an employe of the Rapid
Transit, and his former comrades on
the ears have daily inquired after his
| health.

ton for the service of notice on the
defendant, by publication, in the di-
vorce action instituted by Arthur p.

recites that every effort has been
made to learn the whereabouts of Mrs.
Wardell. but without avail.

Waiting for Perry.

The Supreme Court of the Territory
will not take up any new cases for
consideration until Antonio Perry quail
lies as the successor of Associate JUS
tice Sidney NJ. Ballou. Chief Justice
Hartwell said yesterday that the court
would adjourn from day to day until
cable notification was received of the
confirmation of Perry by the United
States Senate. The only action taken
by the court yesterday was a denial
without argument of the petition for
rehearing submitted in the case of
William Bierce, Ltd, VS.. William Wa
terhouse ct al, executors.
Chief Justice Hartwell, who recently
sent to all of the district magistrates
forms for their annual reports re-
quired by law, to be mailed to him
not to the clerk of the judiciary De-
partment-states that some of the dis
trict magistrates seem to think that
they are expected to send the reports
monthly, instead of at the end of the
year, as the law contemplates.

Question of Custody.

There are four children mentioned in
the petition. ranging from nineteen
years to ten years of age. The sum
of SIPS is asked by Mrs. Kamanoulu
for past expenditures in the mainte-
nance of the children, and s75 per
month.
Attorney Magoon. representing Mrs.
Kamanoulu, took the stand that as
she was granted the decree of divorce
she was naturally expected to have
the control of the children and con.
tributions from Kamanoulu for their
support.
Attorney f. A. Douthitt, represent
ing his legislative confrere, Kamanou-
lu, declared that mis- client was will
ing to contribute to the maintenance
Of the children in a public school or
institution, but objected to supporting
them while in the care of his former
wife.
Magoon insisted that the mother was
the proper person to have control of
the children and that it was unrea-
sonable to take them from her and
place them in an institution, when she
was anxious to care for them.
Judge Robinson said that child of
ten years was not necessarily in the
need of a mothers care, and as that
was the age of the youngest of the
Kamanoulu family, there was nothing
in the way of age to receive serious
consideration in deciding on the mer-
its of the petition.
A verbal ruling against the petition
was about to be made by Judge Rob-
inson when Attorney Douthitt called
attention to the existence of law
passed by the late Legislature, which
provides that in the trial of jury
waived cases the court must render
its decision in writing. Douthitt also
voiced an objection to the manner in
which the trial was dragging along,
and observed that it would probably
last all summer" at the present rate
of progress. On the statement that he
has witness from Maui who was
losing valuable time, Judge Robinson
set the case for o'clock today, after
the regular calendar is disposed of.
