room enough for; a driveway be-
tween the structures and both were
in flames in almost an instant. The
men had only time to lead the horses
from the stable, nothing else being
saved from the barns. AS the wind
was blowing directly toward the
dwelling, this also was soon in
flames, and was totally destroyed,
together with>(most Of the contents,
few pieces of furniture, bedding,
etc., being carried to safety.
Twenty tons of baled hay in the
barn was burned. Also machinery,
vehicles, harness, etc., and two large
stacks of straw. Two calves and
five pigs perished in the flames.
The farm was tenanted by ]. M.
Worrilow, who carried but partial
insurance on his personal property
The buildings were insured. The
loss will reach fully $4,000.

KEEP YOUR BRUSHES
CLEAN
AND USE SPF|SfR'S
SCALP TONIC

A noted scalp specialist
speaking of the prevalence of
dandruff and similar manifeS-
tationS of an unhealthy
scalp, recommends first of all
that hair brushes, combs, etc.,
be kept perfectly clean. The
daily use of Speiser'S Scalp
Tonic is strongly urged as it
prevents the drying of the
scalp, the primary cause of
dandruff, itching, etc.
The use of soaps or any
other preparation which con-
tainS alkaliS, must be strictly
avoided. AlkaliS have a ten
dency to dry the scalp which
only makes matters worse.
Cecoanut oil and all foaming
solutions should not be used.
SpeiSer'S Scalp Tonic CorreCtS

dandruff and relieves itchy,

IS GUILTY OF
EMBEZZLEMENI

The case of James ]. Ovcrbay, for
mer conductor on the Rapid Transit,
which went from the police court to
circuit court and thence to the SUI
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1916-01-13

preme court and back again, was
brought to a close, at least temporar-
lily, in Circuit Judge Ashfords court
today. After celebrating about four
minutes, a jury found Overbay guilty
of embezzlement.
1t has been several months since
the Oyerbay case first made its APP
-pearance in police court where, after
a few continuances and brief trial,
the defendant was found guilty and
sentenced to serve six months in Jail
and pay the costs. Overbay appealed.
From circuit court the case went to
the supreme court on reserved ques-
tons, only to be handed back to the
lower tribunal for trial
According to the testimony, three
$40 gold pieces were picked up in
Waikiki-bound Rapid Transit car on
the night of August by Portuguese
woman She handed the money to
Overbay, who was in charge of the
car, with the understanding that the
street car company would advertise
for the owner. 1t was testified that
Oyerbay made no report of the finding
OF the money, nor did he turn it in
at the company's office.
Overbay acted as his own attorney
during the trial today, but asked only
a few questions. At the close of the
case he addressed a few remarks to
the jury. Upon the suggestion of the
court, overbay noted an exception to
the verdict of the jury, and moved
for new trial His bail was increas-
ed to $500 and he was given until
o'clock this afternoon to raise the
money He is scheduled to, be SEN
fenced at 9 o'clock next Saturday
morning.
