The Bank Premises. The public library was moved two doors north last week. and the spacious 1 store lately occupigd by it is now being fitted up for the Bank of British North America. under the superintendenco of Mr. G. H. McGee, who is “ bossing the job,” though: he has not taken a con- tract. Great changes are being made, and, when finished,» the bank premises on the north-west corner of Colborne and Francis streets will be up~to-dateâ€"- “neat, but not ostentatious,” as Mr. Robinson, the manager. says. The mammoth sale which arrived a few .months ago is to stand on a stone picr built up from the .rccky bottom of the cellar; the front. is to be modernised and furnished. with plate glass windows (aud'a regulation bank door, and. two plate glass windows will let light in from the Francis street side; The whole interior is to be painted, papered and made as good as new, and electric lightsand a telephone will be installed. I As the alterations and improvements will cost a good deal over a thousand dollars. it is almost a wonder that the Bank did not put up a building; but we don’t know where it. could have got a suitable and central site at a reason.- able figure. But the new premises, which will, it is expected, be finishedaby 'the end of the month, are much more roomy than those to be vacated. and. until the business outgrows them, will afford the bank staff plenty of' “ elbow room.” the want of which is badly felt where they now are., For years it has ~been said by our business men that a chartered bank would do well at the Falls, and their predictions have been amply verified by the rapidly increasing business. done by the branch of the Bank of: British North America since ’it was established-here about six months ago. Its success is due partly to the confidence everybody has in the stabil- ity ofi the institution and partly to the tpopularity of. its genial manager, Mr. R. A. Robinson, and his no less genial jchief assistant, Mr. W. A. Bishop. Sad News icra S‘isier.. . On ,Friday last Miss Johnston, of Toronto, Who was at the Fallsvisiting 'Mrs..W. L. Robson, an old friend of j.f her mother’s, received the sad news of the death of. her. brother John, who was drowned the previous afternoon in Moon ‘river, in the Muskoka district.
