WHAT THE CHINESE EAT.

A member of the English parliament,

The food purveyors made q most
striking display; the fruiterers exposed
on fat trays bananas, pineapples, mel

these fruits were most artistically peel

shoots of the bamboo, which seemed to
be a favorite article of diet. But to what
use indeed may not this wonderful grass
be put? From it Cinnamon make almost

roots out of the water, and laying them
on the table pierced them all over very

The pierced roots were then put into

OPINION OF THE COURT BY JUDD, C. ].

The defendant was convicted in the
Circuit Court First Circuit at the last
term thereof of the offense of having
opium unlawfully in possession The
case comes 20 Us on exceptions to the
presiding Judges refusal to charge as
requested by defendants attorney and
to The Charge of the Court as given.
The main question raised i whether
the prosecution was bound to prove,
ou this charge, such facts as would
show that the possession Of the opium
by defendant was unlawful. The trial
Judge held that the prosecution was
not required to prove a Degative-i. Z ,
that tue opium was not obtained from
the Board OF Health, etc and that it
was Incumbent upon the defendant to
show, if be could, that his possession
of the opium was lawful.
SO far as the public is concerned
opium is contraband. Its importation
aud sale are forbidden by law Only
the Board of Health can import IL,
aud for medicinal purposes only.
Physicians only can obtain it from the
Board of Health, and can dispense it
only medically. See Acts II and II OF
the Provisional Government.
Ia 1865 this Court held, in Rex. v.
Gillingham, 2 Haw $50, that where
person Is charg-d with selling spiritu
Gus liquors without license the bur
den of proof was upon him TO show
that he had license. This rule was
based upon the proposition that where
the subject matter of a negative aver
ment lies peculiarly within the
Knowledge of the other party the
avermenJ is taken as true unless dis
proved by that par y. Id and cases
cited.
This principle has been followed in
prosecutions for unlicensed sales Of
liquor and the same principle applies
to the importation, sale and posses
sion of opium.
II the defendant in this case ac-
quired possession of the opium from
the Board of Health or through other
lawful channels it was fact peculiarly
within his knowledge and he should
have shown il. This principle does
not violate the presumption OF limo
cence until proved guilty. There are
often facts in connection with the
proof OF the possession Of opium that
show that il was unlawful. We held In
Prov. Govt. V. Gertz, Haw. 293,
that the unexplained presence of
opium In defendants other goods was
prima fdcie evidence of his intent 10
import the same. See also Rex V. Ah
Sing, 5 Haw. $50. We find no error
in the Judges rulings and charge on
this point.
The above is the only point eD-
larged upon in defenJaUts brief,
but there is also an exception
taken TO the trial Judges over
ruling the objection made that the
law under which he was charged
is unconstitutional The constitu-
tionality of all opium law similar in
terms TO the present was the subject
of discussion in Rex v. YatsiDg, 8
Haw, 672, aud the statute was upheld
though attacked upon grounds similar
to those preferred in this case. Upon
the subject OF the title to an Act of
the Legislature, we refer to In re
Walker, 9 Haw., 1923.
We therefore overrule the excep-
tions
