A REMINIsCENcE OF 1895.

Editor Advertiser: Just to correct
part of Mr.. Hosmer's story in last
Sunday S Advertiser in regard to the es-
cape of the japanese convict to the
warship Naniwa lying in the harbor OF
Honolulu in 1898. It was one man, not
two, Imada by name, who had been
convicted for the murder of one of
his own countrymen
One day while marching back to prls
on from work, he suddenly bolted from
the ehain-gang, ran down to the dock,
Jumped off and swan to the japanese
warship with the luna in close pursuit.
Just as the luna got alongside, Imada
was hoisted aboard
The luna demanded the prisoner say
ing he was a convicted murderer, but
was refused Then began the diploma
tic work of the Provisional Government
| officials
After weeks of delay. Marshal Hitch
cock called Capt. Harry Juen into his
| office one morning saying the eomman-
der of the Naniwa had informed the
Hawaiian officials that he would land
/ IHdud On SuOIS DIT ctItdlA TING NAASAO
| the Hackfeld wharf now stands.
The Marshal told Juen 70 take Capt.
Max Schlemner with him, go down to
the place in civilian dress and lie in
wait
We were not to show ourselves 80
| the japanese officers in the boat.
The understanding was, as | remem-
| Der, the commander would not turn the
! L IT h,fs5
ties direct, but would land him on Ha-
| waiian soil at certain time and place.
/ So about 1880 a. m. we saw the boar
approaching. row boat. In it was two
officers, four sailors and the prisoner,
who was dressed in an old gray suit
with no hat We hid behind an old
boiler 100 feet away from the beach.
When the boat landed we saw the Of
ficers talking to the prisoner and mo-
ton him to go ashore. As soon as
| Tmada stepped out, the boat started
back The prisoner stood and gazed
around for a moment in bewilderment
and then started toward us. When we
| seized him he resisted and put up a
fight, saving: stMore better you hang
me now On King street near the
bridge. he cried out to the japanese
who fioeked about us in threatening
manner.
4 He was placed back in Oahu prison
and later became somewhat demented.
He died several years ago
These are the facts concerning this
prisoner of international fame, and not
as Mr.. Hosmer thusly writes it:
'.Tn the dawn of a morning, before
the fog Hawaiian fog, mind you'll had
lifted from the harbof, a cutter from
the battleship Naniwa approached one
of the main docks along the waterfront
An alert. but thoroughly frightened
| native policeman had scarcely made III
his mind whether to bravely stand hi:
ground or beat a swift retreat for The
purpose Of spreading the alarm. Wher
. the ships boat had shot alongside TIL
wharf and two detected looking figure
were dumped upon the quay, with nj
word of explanation and no message o
any kind, the cutter departed as swift
ly and as mysterious!y as it had come.

Dear Mr.. Mesiek: / have read your
comments in the Advertiser on the
Z" Wonderberry and the comparison
made with our wild nightshade berry.
may be able to give you little in
formation on the subject in general,
but not specifically as to the merits of
the Wonderberry, for I have not
grown it. It belongs TO the same fami-
ly as the berry growing wild here in
the islands and all over the United
States. And for that matter in all
parts of the world. for the Solanum in
its many varieties are among the most
widely distributed of plants.
The common nightshade, Solanum
nigrum, having wide distribution over
the United States, has had the reputa-
ton of being poisonous handed down
from generation to generation, and on.
ly of recent years has any attempt
been made to use it for food, but when
it was found that cooking not only
destroyed the poisonous properties but
converted it into really desirable pie
and preserve fruit, it has been given
some attention as an article of food,
An improved type of this wild berry
was introduced from South Dakota. of
larger size and very fine for preserves,
etc, when cooked, under the name of
" Stubbleberry'', getting its name from
its habit of coming into fruit in the
stubble field after the grain crops
We're harvested. This was introduced
before Burbank s hybrid under the
name of Wonderberry' was sent out.
Although the wonderberry was pro-
dueed by Burbank by hybridizing two
district nonedible species foreign to
the United States, it very much re-
sembles our own native kinds, and
might readily be taken for the same
variety except the fruit is larger I'M
der favorable conditions
Very few of the Solanum family are
edible without cooking and many of
them are poisonous even when cook
ed, while others lose this property
when cooked; even our poha which be-
longs to this family is slightly poi
sonous to some people in the uncooked
state, especially if not fully ripe, and
the same can be said of other varieties.
The above was written ON reading
your first article, but did not send it
TO you as I concluded perhaps some
one with more knowledge on the sub
jet would give you the desired in
formation; but by this mornings Ad-
vertiser / see you are still seeking in
formation Cor material for pi(e)-
which 81 so have concluded RI offer
you my little contribution, hoping it
may at least. as you say, bring out
more information on the subject of
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-08-09

the plant life of Hawaii.
Many of our old Hawaiian people
can give very interesting information
on this subject of the utility of Ha-
waiian plants; it is a pity some OF
them can not be induced to reduce
their knowledge into manuscript for
publication.
Yours truly,
BYRON o. CLARK.
