High Sheriff Brown Made
Selection of the
Juries.
HE TRIED TO GET GOOD
HAWAIIANS FOR JURORS
Old Lists Were Short on American
Cltlzens-Understandlngof Eng
lish a Requisite-Hawaiian
Business,
Henry Smith, Clerk of Judiciary,
was asked yesterday about tha drawing
of Juries. A prominent Hawaiian had
complained In the llullctln office about
tho small representation of his coun
trymen on both grand and petty Juries.
Mr. Smith said that, In tha recent Jury
empaneling the first ot a grind Jury
in these Islands nnd of a petty Jury in
Honolulu under tho Terrltoty of Ha
waii the writ was directed to the High
Sheriff, and commanded him to "se
lect" so many good men and true- for
tho Juries.
Under the old regime a clerk of tho
court. In presence of the Judge who
was to preside at term, shook up
double tho number of names required
for tho Hawaiian and the foreign Jury
respectlsely, then drew out names one
by one until the two panels of twenty
four each wcro completed. Now race
Juries are abolished and none but
American citizens are eligible for Jur
ors. Besides It Is requisite that all
Jurymen must bo familiar with tho
English language.
It was not until after yesterday's pa
per went to press that tho reporter
was able to run across High Sheriff A.
M. Drown. He frankly stated tho
difficulties met In this his first experi
ence of Jury-making. Mr. Drown said:
"When I received the order to se
lect a grand and a petty Jury I was fur
nished with the old Jury lists for a
working basin. Tho flrst difficulty re
lated to citizenship. 'More than half
the old foreign panels were not Ameri
can citizens, being mostly Drltlsh and
German.
"Ah to Hawallans, I was n little sur
prised mssclf, after seeing the panels
completed, nt the small proportion of
Hawallans. Thero are threo Hawallans
on tho grand, and five on trlnl Jury.
However, I had tried to get well-qualified
Hawallans to serve. I considered
It necessary, not only that they should
be nblo to read and wrlto English
tolerably well, but that they should
have a good understanding of tho lan
guage. Many Hawallans who nriBwer
tha qualifications aro not mailable for
Jury duty. Those secured on tho panels
ore men who como up to the mark.
Certainly there was no intent of racial
discrimination.
"Thero has been a great falling off
in Hawaiian cases at recent terms.
At tho last term there were only threo
Hawaiian criminal cases.
"I am not qulto sure, having had no
CNpcrlcnto of a grand Jury system,
whether tho grand Jury passes upon
tho petty cases appealed from tho dis
trict magistrates. However, tho At
torney General knows all about grand
Jury business."
DOLAN IS MISSING.
Dolan, one of tho engineers of Ho
nolulu plantation, who had his hand
cut off In tho mill some, time ago and
who came down to go to tlio hospital,
la missing.
Dolan returned to tho plantation on
tho last trip of tho Iwalanl, arriving
Friday. Ho went to the plantation nnd
then suddenly disappeared. Up to tho
time ot the departure ot tho Iwalanl,
nothing had been heard ot him.

pended; also that tho wholo thing
would blow over after n little. On
this account ho refused to suspend

OFFICER VON HAGEN
LEFT IN AUSTRALIA
Borrowed Money From Various Par
Parties and Then Shook
Hawaii's Soil From
His Feet.
In nil probability son Hagen, blcscle
patrolman on tho Honolulu police force
Is now walking the streets of Sat
Francisco, freo from alt cares and
trials. If he were walking the strcru
of this city today It would be will,
quite n number of police officers fol
lowng him with warrants.
son Hagen Is supposed to hase left
the country In the Australia that sail
ed on the 10th Inst. He was sery caiw
fill about letting his plans be known.
This undoubtedly was due to experi
ence. It will bo remembered that the
Spanish speaking officer tried once 10
foro to lease the country anJ that Jie
was gcntl hauled ashore, son Ilagec
eontlded his secret to a woman sshn Im
mediately began telling her friends. In.
"strlit secrecy." This was during the
daj s when one's passport could be
stopped. ,
On th enlght before tli epollce offi
cer's departure he was seen on the
Australia treating the firemen and
others of tho crew of the steamer to
sarlotis kinds ot drinks. This was
laving tho way for his little trick 0
the next day.
That son Hngen had money In lint
rockets goes without sajlng, for he
"gathered" all ho could before leas Inc.
Tho great majority of this money iti
borrowed from various people on the
(round of his "excellent standing" on
tho police force and his ability to pay
rt the end of tho month. Burnetto &
Decker suffered to the extent of a btn
dred dollars. Other friends hase sad.
talcs to tell.
Sheriff Drown said this morning:
"On the third day of this month voa
Hagen came to the office and said ha
was sick. Ho had a doctor's certificate
Ir. his pocket nnd so I let him off.
That Is tho last we heard of him.
"son Hagen owed a lot of money In
town nnd would haso been dismissed
from the force In n short time but bit
sased mo the trouble by leasing thu
country.
"Vcs, tho story thnt son Hagen took
pos eminent property Is true. In ad
dition to his pollco uniform complete.
ho took his badge nnd other things"
Wm Ako has been appointed In sou
