The statement made by the pri- soner in answer to the charge was produced. The prisoner told the Police that when he left Towns ville he had in his possession the sum of £84, but of this he had lost £71 in gambling. He kept his money in a bag tied round his waist.

On the day before the crime the de- ceased asked him for £10 but pri- soner thought he was joking. That

same night he again met the cook who produced a pistol, which he pointed at prisoner and asked for £50. At that moment a passenger was seen approach ing and the cook put the pistol away, at the same time threaten- ing that if the prisoner said any thing about the incident some- thing would happen to him.

General Managers

The case for the Crown having closed the prisoner added a brief statement to what he had already said to the Police. He intimated that when he went to the cook's cabin the Chinese asked if he had gone for the return of his money. Prisoner replied in the affirmative, and stretched out his hand bat the cook answered "no, no, never." The prisoner was committed te take his trial at the next Criminal Sessions.

In reply to the Magistrate, Mr. Fitzroy intimated that he would be making an application for a special Sessions for June 6 when the Tanda would be in port.

Typhus is raging in the fdmine areas, and Miss Garland, of the China Inland Mission at Hweihsten has succumbed to this disease. Everyone in Sianfu is eating sulphur as a preventive, as "the place is full of typhus."

Missionaries Still Held.

A bitch has occurred in the release of Mr. and Mrs. Forteous,

as the Communist committee now demands $60,000 as a ransom. A C. I. M. representative went to the bandit stronghold recently, expecting to obtain their release, as it was thought the bandits had agreed to accept a small sum in payment of the expenses during captivity. Reuter..

Ladies and gentlemen, we are proud of Mr. Joseph for three rea- sons we are proud of him as a member of our community; we are proud of him because he has risen to eminence in the business world of Hongkong by sheer force of character and by his own unaided efforts; but, we are proudest of him for his sterling qualities and his goodness of heart. I doubt if many of you really know how much good he does by stealth, both with- in the community and without.

Well, I don't wish to detain you much longer, but may I say this, that I hope, I am sure we all hope, this portrait will serve the purpose of first of all reminding Mr. Joseph, whenever he enters this room and looks up at his picture, that his fellow-members are at feast not unresponsive, and second- ty that it will act as an incentive to the growing members of the community to emulate his example and to do likewise. (Applause).

Joseph, Mr.

Turning to Mr. Gould said:"Much as we all re- gret your departure, we know that it is for the benefit of your health, and, so, we bid you God- speed and a safe and pleasant journey. We hope to see you back fully restored to health to carry on your good work."

He then asked Mrs. Gould to unveil the portrait. This having been done, Mr. Joseph thanked the lady and the whole gathering in an appropriate speech.
