They are : "'Clas- to Fish 'and Their i Mountains Purk" ; Wakimu Caves" " and Glaci- sf the Rockies and Selkirks." he Fish Guide is written for the sman and naturalist rather in the'scientist, It isa compli- cation of first-hand information for anglers by one who has fished in all 'the principal waters of the Park. It 'takes up each locality, describes best means of reaching it, the different varieties of fish which can Be secured, and the best bait to 'use. The game fish of the Rockies *._ include five species of trout, one of . which --the Lake Minu.owanka trout ~--has been known to run as high "as 50 Ibs. The Grayling, the Dolly Varden and the Cut Throat trout aretobe found in many of the; Jakes and streams of the Park and 'a fish hatchery has recently been .. established at Banff for the purpose of:ze stocking those that have be- "tome depleted.

The different chambers bave been given names suggestive of their character: "The Pit"; "The Judgment Hall"; "The White Grotto"; "The Bridal Chamber" ¢ tc, and when they are lit "with electricity and proper guards and 'handrails have been placed on the stairs and platforms, they should be among the most interesting sights in the Rockies for tourists.
