Williams, former assisttmt inspector in the prisons and asylums branch of the provincial secretary s department, which Williams says is restitution to the province. The former official is charged with theft in connection with the sale of bricks at the Government s Mimico plant. The amount, it is stated, included $3,000 principal and $900 interest to date from the time that the money was taken. The cheque has been turned over to the treasury depart- menrt. seats, listless and disconsolate, and we are glad, as probably you are too, that we have got to Toronto.

Two nights of comfort on the Assiniboia is much preferrable to two night in a railway car, and considering" the excellent fare served on board, is no more costly. The boat -glided along as smoothly as a raft on a mill pond. An old sailor assured me it always does in the summer months. Then for one long day we looked out of the windows of a fast train at the 1 s t ( 5 z ( 1 I 1 miles and miles of :grass, divided in-' to all shapes by natural canals of clear water. And ever the clumps of everg'reen trees, alternating` with clumps of what had been similar I trees, but were now areas of ship s masts, bare and smooth as a bone. , What causes one lot to die and leaves another lot living? I asked my partner. He tried to look wise, . but could only say they seemed to he the same old trees that were `strung along` this lingering` wilder- ness thirty or forty years ago. And that s all he knew. A+ Vnnnuun I+lnnu nhnulrl .1-nun` \I\ `mats an ne Knew. At Kenora (they should have re- tained the old picturesque name of Rat Portage) you get some alluring glimpses of river scenery, making it easy to believe that further down stream is Winni`peg s most charming isummer resort, Minaki. By and `by `you see a garage or something` of |that sort flit past, with the word ilngolf painted `on it. My vparitner informs me that Ingolf is the last station in Ontario. Dear me, I thought we were out of Ontario long ago. My hero worship of the great Sir John was fanned into new life.

My own notion was that while ol_d Quebec may have a street or two slightly narrow, Winnipeg has erred in the other extreme. This notion later became a conviction, when a gentleman giving me a sight-seeing tour in his motor car, the while ex- patiatimg-on the liberal space for traffic on their great road-way, joy- ously burmped over one of the ele- vated islands of refuge midway, at- tening out one of Miss Collins latest designs against the roof of- the vehicle. The car, however, being new and of staunch make, was not injured. This was very fortunate, indeed, for by the good office; of this same car and the kindness of this same gentleman we were aiforded an acquaintance with Selkirk, Stonewall, the Galician village, Assiniboine park, Fort Garry, the new Parlia- ment buildings, and all like places of interest at Winnipeg`.

The Prince George hotel is more to my liking than dining` and sleeping.-; cars, elegant and comfortable though they are, and costs no more. Leaving Moose Jaw, I found myself harbor- ing the unorthodox and wholly blameworthy thougzht that too much optimism is not always a good thing. The dusty little antiquities in the guise of street cars, clattering` up the main street, with no passengers aboard or in sight, maybe sug'g'estc(l this unworthy train of thought to I11{\ C. And Calgary. You still feel at home, or perchance, you may notice in the residential districts, where wooden bungalows easily hold first place in popular favor, that the paint, the stone .walls and cement walks, the grass, the shrubbery and the owers, all have a wondrous look of newness and brightness. They seem to have just been taken out of a hand `box fresh arrived from Japan. Maybe the panticular kind of weather just then had to do with this.

We next Rnnnt twn weeks in air in that high attitude *5 _ We next spent two weeks In Rocky Mountain Park, making our headquarters in a cottage at Banff, provided, together with an automo- bile, by the generous kindness of friends that is not soon to be for- gotten. This park has an area of from 5000 to 6000 square miles, re- served by the Government as a game sanctuary and pleasure resort. No advertising or picturing could exag- gerate the beauty of this enchanted region.

By the -way, I must relate how Eagle Pass got its name. My partner tells that the railway ex- plorers, liaving fou-nd their way through Rogers Pa-ss, were puzzled as to how to get further. A sur- veyor called Moberley watched an ' eagle in ight and making` note of where it disappeared, followed its course, discovering the pass.

It was here he saw the actor, Cool Burgess, and his company aligtht from the train.

By daylight next monninig we are on the Fraser river, whose course we follow to within a few miles of Vancouver, where we arrive about noon. We are not out of the moun- tains yet. Across the harbor are two hills, overtoppinrg the general height of sky line with the respect- able elevation of 6000 feet. A ship with Waruna of London blazoned on her bows is discharging` uncount- able cases of Hawaiian pineapples. The Empress of Asia is taking on cargo and passengers for the Orient (or should we say Occident now). The Niagara has just docked from Australia, and a huge sailing hulk r.ides at anchor in mid harbor.

You are at once nearly run down by an automobile driving on the left and turning to the right, as was the traffic rule there then (since changed), and you feel that you are at last in a town where some things are new to you. People go about their affairs here in a more leisurely way, but one sees little of the old- time aversion to the North Ameri- can Chinamen, as they sneeringly du'bbed people from the east in earlier days, nor are your five and ten cent coins rejected at the count- er, with gratitious advice as to their value as chicken feed. You may board a street car here, though you be not an olympic sprinter, and gain a seat therein with a more dignied process than being pitched head rst at it. 'l`h.n nlatn xrlniss of r.l1n qnlan.

The dwel- lings, and again pretty woo-len bungalows are far in the lead, have a rather dark and rain washed look, quite in contrast to those of Cal- gary. You notice that many of the window sash are raised, the vacancy being lled with a fly screen, that on close scrutiny gives no evidence of ever being removed, winter or sum- mer, as indeed it is not. You buy your vegetable from a Jap or Chin- ese, and your wood uel from a Hindoo; they monopolize these com- modies. You will of course visit Capilano canyon, and walk over the wire bridge, suspended across it 200 feet above the stream. One girl, making spasms of swaying progress across beside me, remarked that it was the only place she knew of where one could get drunk on 10c.
