Judge N. w. ROWell.

Again we are called upon to chron
icle the death of one of Atoms mos
highly respected citizens, Judge N
w. Rowell, which occurred at hi:
late home yesterday morning abou
six o'clock. The immediate cause o.
his death was acute indigestion, bu
he had not been in good heath fol
some time.
The funeral services will he helC
tomorrow (Friday) afternoon at 81;
O'Clock at the NJ. E. church and in
terment at the Greenlawn cemetery
The body will lie in state at the
Rowell home from 10000 a. m. until
100 p. m. Friday where friends car
view it.
A couple of months ago Judge
RoWell requested the editor of this
paper that if it fell to our lot to pub
lish an obituary notice of his life
that he wished we would take it from
a book which was published six years
ago giving biographical sketches OF
the lives of great many prominent
union county men. The book was
edited and compiled by Geo. A. Ide
of Creston and the sketch regarding
Mr.. Rowell was correct at that time.
We will comply with his request and
following is the biography as appear
ed in the book:
Honored and respected by all,
there is no man in Union county, ac-
cording to the consensus of public
opinion, who occupies a more envi-
able position in the regard of his fell
low citizens than does Hon. Neal w.
Rowell, whose life record has been of
benefit to those among whom his lot
has been cast, not only in his profess
siOnal service as member of the bar
and as Judge on the bench, but also
in public Office and by reason of his
influence, which has always been on
the side of that which is progressive
and elevating.
He was born June 10, 1886, In
Athens county, Ohio, son of William
and Hester (Lentner) Rowell. His
father, farmer by occupation, was
born January 1, 1913, in Parkers-
burg, West Virginia, and his moth
er's birth occurred in Dover, Della
ware, in 1903. The parental grand
father of Judge Rowell was an Eng
lishman whose parents came from
the "Merrie isle" at an early day. His
wife was a member of the Neal fam
lily and of pure Irish lineage. The
maternal grandfather was of Dutch
descent, his parents coming from Hol-
land to the new world and settling at
New Amsterdam. He married Miss
Russell, of pure Scotch blood. 1t will
thus be seen that various nationalit-
les find representation in Judge Row
ell and with him, as with many 9TH
ers, it will be found that this Ameri-
can composite is one which seems to
have taken the best from each race
and combined the different salient
national characteristics into strong
and harmonious whole.
Judge Rowell entered the Ohio
University ct Athens, Ohio, in 1853,
after having pursued his preliminary

MORE WORK ron THE GRAND JURY.

Attempted INTIMIDATION of witnesses for
the territorial grand jury in the county jail In
festigation should be the subject of immediate
grand jury probe. From the thoroughness
with which the jury has begun its investiga-
tom this latest phase of gang-rule and near
ihuggery will probably come in for a vigorous
ventilation.
No evidence has developed that the visit last
Saturday night by a]police officer to the home
Of grand jury witness, and the effort ID enter
the homo by force, was the scheme of more than
an Individual On the other hand, the circum-
stances are such that the incident needs con-
siderably more explanation. So far as is
known the name of this policeman, Sylvester
Cullen, had not figured in the stories told to
the grand jury Certainly the men who had
previously given the Star Bulletin statements
concerning Jail conditions did not mention
Enlen in connection with the alleged scandal
1ns liberties allowed the McGrath- Bowers
Boggs gang. Cullen was a guard at the jail,
but his implication. if any, in conditions there
has not been a matter of public discussion.
Why, then should he take it npon himself to
visit the home of grand jury witness late at
night The question should. be followed to a
satisfactory answer whether Cullen was acting
On his own Initiative or was put up to his act
ions by others who feared further disclosures
Incident after incident in the past week has
led three Of the main witnesses who testified
before the jury to feel that they areunder the
vague threat of physical violence. One Of them
1Ifeady has been severely beaten up. " His
beating, since it came before the grand jury
started its work, may have been merely CO.

IT'S Up TO THE COMMUNITY.

Mid-Paeifc Carnival directors, in deciding
70 make good the loss Of the directors general
by dividing the responsibilities among com
mittees, have right to the unanimous support
and the active cooperation Of HonoIulu's lead
ing men and women.
Specifically, they have right to expect that
when Honolulu residents are asked to take
committee chairmanships or committee places,
there will be no hanging back, no unnecessary
excuses. The directors will wish to get the
very best,men possible for the various commit
tees, and If they are compelled to hunt for
weeks tosget chairmen, the work will lag and
the entire scheme be delayed The annual
Carnival has established itself as very much
worth wlile. The 1916 Carnival has already
been widely advertised and many tourist par
ties are coming here on the assumption that
there willkbe festa worthy Of the islands,
The directors also should be given sugges
tons for features, worked out in as much prac-
teal detail as possible. In many cases the sug-
gestions may not be utilized but the Carnival
management Will be enabled to get line on
thc kind Of Carnival Honolulu wants and this
rill be valuable in arranging the program.

ney w. T. Rawlins reviewed 4 recent
decision OF the circuit court In case

cts In his possession Rawlins argued
that the prosecution must not only
show that the defendant had lottery
ticket In his possession. but must
show It was a ticket on certain
bank. in which q drawing was TO be
held.
Chefa men do not put the names OF
the bank or the time of drawing on,
tickets, and drawings are seldom held
twice in the same place. II Judge
Monsarrat should sustain the point
raised by Rawiins Il Will mean that
chefa can exist practically without re-
striction. as the police and detective
forces claim It Is almost impossible
to get the bankers, and ticket holders
could not be punished.
