The cl'owdof visitors next year will doubt less bo incI'ulIlICllulI the valuable curative properties of the hot springs are better known , but ample accommodation i will be provided in thu now 0. P.

It covers ' Iii area of L , OOO square feet ; is three stories high , exclusive of basements , Ii great portion of which had to be excav muted out of the solidrock . Two tubular steam boilers , : 30 horse power , each , are on hand to supply steam for heating and the motive power for the ciiy-ine to drive machinery to generate the electric light , to work elevators , . hoists , etc . There are nix miles of wires laid in the building COlIlll'ctedwith the electric bells , and fifteen miles more in connection with the electric lights . Tim rooms number 'jjf ; ' of f which I 8ume :!

The mu , fui the rotunda is beautifully painted , having I the centre occupied with a network of nmplc leaves , surround \ eby \ groups of I the rose , thistle and sham lteuuutifullyblcmidimtg I British nationalities together . The views from the different balconies of the hotel are beautiful in I the extreme and vary at every point of the compass . Southward , up the l'ugbedm1luy of thu extra pellucid silvery river Spray , the grey mountain peaks flanked with tall evergreen spiral spruce , pine , poplar nnd other woods , present a grand i panorama . Eastward , the confluence of the Spray with Bow river , the falls of the Bow , the united rivers , and the valley u'I'ndextending ' to the foot of the jugClpeaks \ which tower in the distance over the anthracite coal mines , make upa lovely ' picture ; whilst thu thinly n'tuuleduslupes of the lofty mountains towards \ thu north , and snow capped Castle Mountain westward , surrounded by more distant ranges , re- Kcmbling crouching monsters , complete this picturesque and sublime , I picture .

There are several places of accommodation , at the upper hot springs the sanitarium south of the Bow , and others in the town of Banff ' , north of tins Bow and \ at the railway station . Their charges are mod ' \ crate . Next season ; , therefore , all classes can be suited . Certain fishing tourists complain of scarcity of I trout i in the Bow , where formerly fishing was excellent . This suggests the tweI'Hsilof ,\ having a fish hatchery cst-ibli.shed I to to -sttck Bow and Spray rivers iimnhmiles 1 ' in the Na tional park , as wellIS other over-fished \ streams in Alberta . Such an es - tablishment would be an additional attraction to visitors . There is 11'Ol'y suitable site which it might occupy , inL thickly wooded grove on I thu east side of the spring , which is now cOIulI'ul.t,1with ! , the west by the new hUll bridge \ u lecently placed over the river there . The new iron bridge across the Bow immcdhtcly opposite the sanitarium is nlso being laid on the piers , so the floating bridge which has hitherto done good scrvico will soon be dispensed with . The drimsing-rooms for bathers at the cave springs are com ¬ pleted .

' The atmosphere was . clear ; : temperate and bracing . Lofty peaks on either hand , ' clearing the passing clouds , stood out in bold relief , showing their ' bare and grim sides in sunshine and shade .

Another passenger , a gentleman , rode , a la Lady Macdonald , on the cow catcher and took instantaneous views with his camera of some of the deepest and \ wildest canyons of the Kicking Horse Pass and \ the marvellous tressle-work along the line .

A lIIajol'ityof the ferry steamers of the Southern Pacific I'ouda'o now being alter ed so as to burn } petroleum for fuel in ¬ stead of coal . The change being made \ has been found to be more economical and more convenient The steamers Oakland and Julia as well as the freight transfer ) )1I"tlllf , , the Thoroughfare & Transit com lanyall put in petroleum and the nnxt one to be altered is the Solano , the huge Carquinez straits transfer boat . The price of petroleum when the experiment was first made was $1.65 per blm'eland on this a saving of 10 per cent . was made . The present price of potroleumis $ 1.45 , on which it is easy to make a great saving . Besides ' this , however , the wear and tear on the boiler ; is diminished , the services of one of the two firemen are done away with and the risks of explosion \ or ofac ¬ cident . are minimized . The fuel is not burned directly , but is sprayed by means of a steam jot , this being the only possi haIti moans of burning it. The Southern Pacific people are desirous of utilizing petroleum 011 those of their locomotives pl'illgon the suburban trains in order to do away with smoke and other inconven iences . .
