No mat- ter how poor the houses in the village may be, the church is a tine edilice, its tower, and often twin towers, being seen for miles around. I On Sunday night practically no one on che train had .au hour's sleep. Your scrilie had none at all, nor is it to be ' wondeied at, for all night lout; the noLse in the car was awfuL No one seemed to ! want t<) sleep, so we stjtyed awake. ! Arriving at Quebec, we formed up and > marched to camp, about half a mile dis- tant. Our teucs had been put up for us : by an advance party, so were all ready I for us to walk into. Nevertheless, it â-  took us nearly all morning to get settled. .\fter 1 o'clock nearly everyone was oli'j duty and free to leave camp until mid- night, j Savard Park is about three miles from ' the Citadel, and about ont mile from a street car line. Our tirst iiiipressious of Quebec were, to say the least, bad. We were behind the city, so, unlike tour- ists, we did not tlrst get the magniticent view from the river. What we .â- jjiw was dirty, narrow, dusty streets, small frame and tar paper houses, single-track car lines, one horse carts aud plenty of dirty French children. We had plenty of time that afternoon to see a lot of Quebec. I lueutioned that the streets are very narrow ; how narri^w may be judged from the fact that in some streets one may sit in the car and holding out a haiHi towards the side of the street touch the telaphone poles, which aie set in the sidewalk. On the sidewalk there is only room for one person to pass the poles, and on the opposite side of the car line room for only one cart. Of course there are a few wider streets, but the great majority aro narrow, dirty and dusty, and lined with small frame houses. The blocks are also small. It is no un- usual sight to see only two or three houses forming a city block, although on the business and better re idential streets they are longer. Quebec has very few middle class houses. In the lower town, both in front of, and behind, the upper town, the houses are^ mostly old and poor looking, such as many respectable people would hardly wish to live in. Moreover, the', people are not too cleanly in their person- 1 al appeai^ance, in the appearance of their houves or streets. In the upper town there are a number of beautiful homes, { but only men oi meann could alford to j live theie. The water supply is very \ poor, although it comes from the Lauren- tian hills. 'The water i» warmâ€" at least it is not coldâ€" and it has a peculiar taste that was not appreciated by us. This is no doubt owing to the lack of lime in its composition. So much for the darker i side of Quebec, now for the brighter. I The upper town is built on a high pUt- eau, overlooking the St. Lawrence. The j highest point of this plateau is crowned by the Citadel, which is the main fortress of Quebec, and up the river to the south- west stretch the plains of .Abraliani. A steep hill runs down from the Citadel to Duoerin Terrace, one of the finest prom- enades in America, and on the other end of the terrace is the Chateau Fronteoav, which has undoubtedly the finest outlook ' of any hotel in America.

There are many other bcautii'ul scenes artmnd Quebec, but this is by far the finest aadune which no description can do justice to.
