The still was located in the upper
Walanae valley about four miles from
the town of that name.
The Internal Revenue officials have
been on the track Of the still for the
past six months but only recently was
Drake able to get any information
that enabled him to make the seizure.
Two officials of his department went

U. S. SHIPPING COMMISSIONER
ALMY WILL MAKE 1T HOT FOR

A practice which has been too com
mon OF late is about to be brought up
with a round turn by U. S. Shipping
Commissioner Almy and the Federal
authorities will be adding wealth to
the United States treasury through
very heavy fines unless some captains
take a tumble.
1t has come to the notice of the
Shipping Commissioner here that GER

men without due process OF the ship

master of a vessel if he be unscrupul-

over the man discharged in the matter

articles are ignored in certain cases
and in inc very recent case a skipper

Incidentally he is such a man as

WINS ON
APPEAL
j. e. FULLERTON WILL BE GIVEN
A CHANCE BY THE SUPREME
COURT THIS MORNING.

The Supreme Court this morning
handed down an opinion sustaining
an appeal brought by James e. Full
lerton from the order made by Judge
Lindsay removing him as guardian of
Mabel, Helene, Elsie and Edith Rob-
erts, minor children.
The matter in the Circuit Court
arose in connection with the guar
dams third annual account The
court surcharged the guardian on REG
ommendation of the master with $2,
S513O, the amount of the minors
money that had been invested by Full
lerton in real estate mortgage, the
security of which was held to be
worthless. The court also removed
Fullerton as guardian and appointed
r. II. Trent in his stead. Fullerton
appealed. The opinion says in part:
Section 1921 of the Revised Laws
provides that when any guardian
shall become insane or otherwise in
capable of discharging his trust or
evidently unsuitable therefor" a cir
cult judge after notice to such guar
dian and to all others interested may
remove him"
