As many readers will recollect, Mr. Belilius lost one son in Hongkong of plague.

The iden, however, proved impracticable, Only one juvenile criminal entered it in two years, and then it was reported to the Govern meat that there were no juvenile criminals in the Colony! The building is now devoted to educational purposes.

Of Mr. Belilio socially, these, who were

privileged to know him, highly esteemed his social qualities. Itis hospitality was unstinted and there were few in the colony who had not

been entertained at one time by him.

A

generone patron of sport, he was always to the front in encouraging various exercises by offering prices, and in every rasport he had some claim on the regard of the community.

He was a widely-travelled man and had visited almost every part of the world. He was one of the earliest travellers on the Siberian Railway and weste en interesting noceant of his experiences which was published in the Daily Press.
