OLD SPENDTHRIFT
DEED HELD ON
LAND COURT FINDS
JAMES LOVES MATTER NOT
CLOSED UP.

The examination in the Torrens Land
Court of the title of the Oahu Market
Company to property at King and Ke-
kaulike streets resulted in a discovery
that the old James Love spendthrift
trust had not entirely released it's hold
on the property. BY a deed now made
by j. A. Magoon as trustee the matter
has been cleared up but according to
the report of the examiner of the title,
some deeds and leases may have to be
made over again. The report, by Lyle
A. Dlckey, to Judge Weaver, said:
~. Alfred Magoon held this land in
two capacities as trustee under deed
from Bruce Cartwright, trustee, and
as guardian. When the guardianship
was terminated he was not discharged
as trustee under the deed and there
has been no conveyance by him as
trustee under the deed and there has
been no conveyance by him as trustee
in accordance with the original trust
deed or otherwise. The trust has APP
parently been terminated by common
consent without legal instruments and
a new trust created by the deed of
James Love and mortgage given
which If valid Is still a lien on the
property AS James Love and those
whom James Love might name by win
as his heirs were the sole beneficiarles,
this is a trust which could be termin-
ated by consent. 1t should, however,
be terminated by decree of court, or by
some formal Instrument signed by j.
! Alfred Magooh as trustee and by
James Love In the absence of any
such formal termination of the trust
under which ]. Alfred Magoon holds the
land l hold that the legal title is now
in j. Alfred Magoon as trustee subject
only to the lease: that all the convey
ances and other instruments are void
for failure of j. Alfred Magoon to join
| in them. The cancellation of lease is
void as against John Emmeluth for
failure of consideration though 1t might
be ratified by j. Alfred Magoon."

having authority to draw money orders
in Hawaii, may draw orders for such
amounts as he desires, on offices all
over the mainland and then take lei
surely trip and collect them, just as It
is claims that Williams did. Then he
could skip and get a years start Of
the federal government, as the Maui
man did. The federal government will
never cease it's pursuit In such a case,
and Williams will be a fugitive for life
If he is not found, but the way appears
open for almost unlimited embezzle-
ments. There was no way to detect
the Maui alleged embezzlements until
the checking Of different offices a.
gainst one another at Washington
showed that the Maui office had not
received the money for the orders it
had drawn on mainland offices.
In the Rego case the federal govern
ment win have all its money back,
amounting to $27 900, I'm a few days, I'M
der proceedings taken by Breckon. Re-
go, it is said, is solvent so that he is
the one who will pay it. he will also
probably satisfy his creditors, and
then, If the district attorney proves the
case he expects to prove, Rego viii go
to jail for some term less than ten
thousand years, without being a cent
the gamer for his alleged frauds.

Entertainments ARE EASY

District Attorney Breckons has been
doing some figuring on the case of M.
A. RegO, the Kauai postmaster who is
under arrest for defrauding Uncle Sam,
and has concluded that Rego has COM
mitted offences enough to call for about
ten thousand years. Imprisonment, if
Judge Dole wants to be mean and i'm
pose the full penalties.
HE was rolling up several thousand
years a month";" said Breckons. ION
one God business day Rego would do
enough to entitle him to a thousand
years I'm jail, and when the game was
stopped he had got to about ten thou
sand as his maximum penalty"
The Rego case and that of Williams
of Maui have revealed a possible leak
in the Post Office system which it is be-
lieved will call for a reform of some
sort. The cases have naturally been
called to the attention of the postmas-
ter general and it is probable that
some of the best men in the department
are working TO devise new safeguards.
The Williams case shows nearly a
year to have elapsed after the draw
ing of the alleged bogus money orders
before the authorities were in shape to
act. Under the system as it is, this
appears to mean that any employe

NOT EXEMPT
FROM EXECUTION
SUPREME COURT DECIDES THAT THE PROPERTY THE WIRE

T1oN-rHE CORPORATION NOT A QUASI PUBLIC ONE BOUND
PERFORM PUBLIC SERVICE.

The Supreme Court this morning de-
cided the case of the Inter-Island Tele-
graph Company and others against Lii
liuokalani and A. M. Brown, High
Sheriff. The suit was for an injunction
to prevent the sheriff from levying on
property of the company for a judg-
ment for $26S75 in favor of Liliuoka-
lani. The court reverses the Circuit
Court and sustains a demurrer. The
plaintiffs claimed exemption of their
property from execution on the ground
that the corporation is a quasi public
corporation, under obligation to per-
form public service, but this contention
is not sustained.
The syllabus says:

its evils will be far less than under
the present system which not only does
not accomplish the protection from dis

directly responsible for spreading dis

BILL
HAS PASSED
THE MEASURE GOES THROUGH
BOTH HOUSES AND IS NOW BE-
FORE THE GOVERNOR.

The County Bill as revised by the
Conference Committee of both House
and Senate was finally passed by both
upper and lower houses this morning
and the matter is now up to Governor
Carter to deal with as he sees it, In
both houses today there was objection
TO the passage of the hill. Achi voiced
an objection TO the bill upstairs, his
ground being that the committee had
no right to increase any amounts in
the bill. In the lower house Smith
made his final appeal for two counties
on Hawaii and Kaniho also opposed the
bill. 1t Is not considered at all improb-
able that the Governor may veto the
bill, but If he does it will assuredly be
passed over his dead.

selves, one Of their number voting with
the House conferrees. He pleaded that
the action Of the conference committee
would throw the county act into the

act
Dowsett defended his report saying
that he believed 1t was perfectly in
order and would stand the tests of the
courts.
Achi once more argued that the con-
ference committee had appropriated
more money than either House for sal
aries, and had gone beyond its powers.
He believed that in signing this report
Dickey had voted against his convic-
tions.
HE is too much of a COMPROMISED"
| At this point Dowsett arose to say
that he had just got word that the
House had adopted the report 26 to 4.

GODS GUIDING HAND IN OUR
 LIVES.

BY MRS HELEN A. TAYLOR. What is life? Iris what we make it. As we journey here below, 'Tis the way in which we take it, Pain, or pleasure, as we go; Do we depend on earthly pleasure, Fraught with care and sins unrest? Then in vain we fill life's measure, Of temporal joys, alone possessed. God hath given to each mission, Told that mission how to fill, First, to give to Him submission, He will guide our errant will. Always not in pleasant places, Seems our life-path prone to lead; There are thorns, in many cases That wound, and cause our hearts to
 bleed. If we trust the Hand that leadeth, He who suffered, Christ divine, The prayers of love and faith He
 heedeth, Will cause the star of hope to shine. He will point our erring passions Unto paths of pleasantnesS, Following not weak, worldly fashions; But to deeds of righteousness. Though the world seem cold about
 you,
 Friends desert and fortune frown, He will throw His arms about you, Then you ne'er will be cast down. Many an humble, modest Christian, Poor in purse, though he may be, Finds at last Heavens hoped fruition, Lasting through Eternity. Let us cease our vain repining, When love and light doth point the
 way,
 By faith and love our hearts resigning, Heaven doth point to brighter day.
