TO SEE THE MIoWERA.
Detective Toma Goes to See Her on
Horseback.

Detective Toma Goes to See Her on
Horseback.
The boatboys are telling a pretty
good yarn about Toma, the Japanese
detective, and his exploits yesterday.
Toma, it seems, wanted to go out to
the stranded steamer Miowera on
horseback, and asked several of the
boatmen to show him the road by
Iwilei. This was done and Toma
started with two dogs on the horses
back, coming around by the reef in
the rear of the United States war
ships. He got into deep water near
an old boiler on the Waikiki side of
the Adams, so he decided to go no
farther. Toma took the two dogs
off the horses back and placed them
on the boiler, then got on it himself.
While watching the Miowera his
horse walked off, and when the de-
tective turned around he was quite
a distance away. Fearing that he
might lose his steed, Toma jumped
into the water, clothes and all
aud made for the horse. The water
was up to Tomas neck, and pass
ing boatman says he thong ht it was
some animal swimming in the water
However, Toma caught his horse
and mounting it rode home drip.
ping wet. The dogs had to walk
home.
When asked about it this morning
Toma said that it was all right, his
horse could swim and so conld he.
