WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-The
boarding away of food stuff or fuel
and the destruction of stocks kept 10
cold storage for the purpose of limit
ing the supply and thus affecting the
price of that on the market, and the
rigging of the markets on any neces,

Control bill which was passed in the
senate yesterday without a dissenting

Other amendments which have been
offered to the bill viii be discussed

no cause for the dam giving away

The entire dam is approximately 300
feet in length. The loss to the dam
is estimated at over SIS 600 as it cost
when constructed $4,000, and large

1t is not believed that the loss of
the water will have an appreciate
effect on the crop as the water from
the ditch which supplied the reservoir
can still be used, although not in large
quantities at one time.
AS the reservoir was hardly half full

the bridge on the road to Haleiwa

the former case the bridge will simply

well in New London. He had always
been honest and had a wife and two
children dependent upon him. He had
merely considered that he was hold
ing the money. Attorney Morgan
said that there was a good deal of
merit in his client and he should be
given chance to make good. Fitz-
gerald was not a criminal. declared
the attorney, and he should be shown
every possible consideration.
Before pronouncing sentence Judge
Reed said that Fitzgerald should have
acted in an honest and business-like
way in his dealings and that he
should not have attempted to wrong
anyone. He wished. however, to act
fairly and in a fatherly way toward
him. He then imposed the fine of
5000.
Fitzgerald was in court when the
fine was imposed After being found
guilty Tuesday his bonds of $500
were increased to $500 and he
went to Jail until late at night when
he secured bail. which was furnished
by j. r. Meade, and he was released.

THIS STOPS HAIR
FROM FALLING OUT

Ever try to count the dead, fallen
hairs in your comb and brush? They
are natures advance warning of future
badness and proof that the dangerous
little dandruff germ is busy on your
scalp.
DR.. Sangerbund, the famous Paris
specialist, first discovered that dam
druff and falling hair are caused by
microbe Then came the discovery of
the value of the real Partisan Sage
(liquid form) in destroying the dan
druff germ and promptly preventing
the further loss of hair. The effect of
only three days use of Partisan Sage
Is simply marvellous, and the Ameri-
can people have now awakened TO the
fact that dandruff is Just as unneces-
sary as it is unhealthy, and that they
can be quickly rid of it and save their
hair by using few ounces of Partisan
Sage.
Partisan Sage is sold for not more
than so cents a large bottle at drug
and toilet counters everywhere. 1t is
an ideal, daintily perfumed liquid, free
from grease and sickness, and will
surely cause hair to grow soft, Ius-
trous and really seem twice as abund-
ant.
Lee & Osgood Co. always have q
large supply. and guarantee 1t to you.
