of the Peace in 1882, and is one of the youngest Magistrates in the colony. Mr. Muirhead occupies a leading position in yachting circles, and held office respectively as Treasurer and Secretary of the Glenelg Yacht Club. He is also Vice-Commodore of the Holdfast Bay Yacht Club. Elected at the head of the poll a Director of the South Australian Insurance Company, one of the oldest companies in the colony. Mr. Muirhead resides at Glenelg, and, as will be surmised, takes an active interest in all that concerns the prosperity of that popular watering-place. He was lately requested to stand for the District of Sturt; and is in partnership with Mr. P. F. Bonnin, Solicitor, of Adelaide.
W. R. Knox
IS a native of Adelaide, where he was born July 21, 1861. Evinced a talent for music at an early age, and, under the tuition of Mr. Landergan and Signor Paola Giorza (the eminent musician and composer), developed this gift in a remarkable manner. As a token of appreciation of his pupil's proficiency, Signor Giorza, on leaving Adelaide, presented Mr. Knox with a highly-flattering testimonial, in which it is stated that "he is a most accomplished musician." At the age of 18 Mr. Knox made his debut in public as a performer on the organ and piano at the leading concerts in the city, and gained high encomiums for his artistic playing. He is organist of the Flinders-street Presbyterian Church, and on every occasion on which he has presided at his favourite instruments has been listened to with rapt attention. The meritorious task of familiarizing the public with gems from the repertoire of Schubert, Chopin, Mozart, and other great composers, appears to have fallen to Mr. Knox's lot; and South Australians have reason to be proud that one of the native-born is thus early rapidly rising to fame.
