the of of Cascade mountain It seemed hut We went down to the rivers a short distance away as it towered deeded that a bath in be pi hut waters would not be pleasant would bo needed to cool it for mountains in their height most wonderful sight is the view of the giant mountains to our right and in front of us There peak after peak rises before us clad in eter nearly feet high but still woj went

itself having just come from some melting glacier After stopping hero half an hour for breakfast wo proceeded on now crossing deep ravines now piercing projecting rocks now quietly gliding through a picturesque valley we soon plunge into the lower Kicking Horse Canyon down which railway dis putes the passage with the river The scenery now is grand and awe inspiring The mountain sides rise almost vertically thousands of feet and an easy stones throw from wall to wall Down this chasm tho rail way and rivor go together the former crossing from side to side and passing every minute or two through pro jecting angles of rock The screech ing of the engine as it echoes and re echoes through the rocks tho clatter to get no nearer It many It was cold a miles away when we first saw it yet it seemed close at hand This something that has to bo taken into account in all this upper country Never start out on a trip up to some mountain peak which seems close at hand until you ask the distance from someone who has been there I one day asked a small boy if he had over attempted to climb a cer tain mountain which seemed quite close and not very high Yes he said How far did you get I didnt get half way to the bot tom was the answer the I snow and bearing on their backs 1 glaciers that for ages have been fighting a loosing battle with the still mightier Sun Winding alone the mountain side we cross on high bridges the bed of many a mountain torrent The high est of all these bridges crosses Stony Creek feet above its running wa ters After leaving Bear Creek station the line leaves the course of the Beav er and turns up Bear Creek along con tinuous grades of 1 16 feet to the mile Near here we made the acquaintance of the snow shed but as were then riding in the observation car we did not appreciate them However they are necessary to protect the tract from avalanches in the winter time They are properly speaking great tunnels of massive timber backed with rocks so fitted into tho mountain sides as to bid defiance to the most terrific avalanche In one of these sheds our engine got tired or in other words got stuck and we had to stop for more steam But it was a most humane proceeding on the part of the engine for as we patiently waited a fine dog came racing up all dripping with sweat The poor animal had probably been curious like many email boys and had got off at one of to the country and had beon left behind Ho was got safely on board and after awbile the engine got steam and we again climbed upward- Our way now lay between enormous precipices which at one time were likely united but by some great pow er have been torn asunder Mt on the left towers a mile and a quarter above the railway its sides bear and rugged with occasional deep fissures in which rests the eternal snow From these snow banks flow beautiful streams of water that plunge of train and the of river The scenery around Banff is mostU tem fil1 ua constant sense and dash down the sides of the

the most gigantic type Sir Donald rises almost abruptly more than a mile and a half above the railway and many other peaks are hardly less lofty in their aspirations Just back of the hotel about a mde and a half is the Great Glacier of the which is said to be as large as all the glaciers of Switzerland combined But why need I linger longer in these faint bints at some of natures greatest wonders By this time we had got so accustomed to towering peaks rushing torrents and deep can yons that they no longer amazed us About dusk we passed and soon after sought the gentle arms of Morpheus in whoe embrace we lingered until the rosy beams of the rising sun crowned the hills with their splendor We then arose to gaze to our full upon the mighty bearing golden sand down to its shoals the impetuous force of its waters sparred on by an innate longing to visit the home of its childhood strag gled the still more precious salmon whose longing for the upper streams and rivulets knows no such word failure It is success or death At North Bend we took another servation car and from that down to the lowlands is one succession of awe- inspiring wonders Now we dash through a tunnel cut in mountain side to save a long detour by the rivers edge Again we crawl along the bank of the river but on a road hundreds of feet above it The boiling rushing torrent below us ready to re ceive us if only one rail is unfaithful to its trust On we go Side by side with us is the old Cariboo road whose history is intimately associated with the his tory of the province Further back we saw the road pinned as it were to the mountain side on the opposite bank of the river and as one gazed at the almost perpendicular wall out of which it was cut we form some idea of the steady nerves and tbe indomit able energy of the early settler But let us leave these scenes for the lowlands which we are fast approach ing As we reach Agassiz the valley becomes quite broad and the flows on it lazy course not at all like the rushing waters we have known before There seems to be a great deal of swamp land here At Agassiz is the Government Experimental Farm where nearly all kinds of fruit and grain are Now do not think that because have got into the neighborhood of the fishy that the following is a fish story but at this place they cover their shocks of grain with umbrellas to from the frequent rain As we passed through our road up the country we saw considerable field of so protected Most of the way from Agassiz to Vancouver is through low broken country very little of which has bei reclaimed for agricultural purposes We reached Vancouver about 1 p m thankful that our journey was over but glad that we had had the privilege of seeing beauties memory of which will never leave us Vancouver is a
