Hearn, Coast Artillery Corps, in his re-
port on the coast defense exercises.
gives an interesting analysis of the de-
tense scheme of Fort Totten, and says
that the proper allotment of troops
should be a regiment of infantry and
twelve pieces of field artillery. As sew
eral companies of the list Regiment
were below their authorized strength,
the disposition possible was not suffi.
Gent to cover the territory in which
an effective landing could be made. The
searchlights provided were unable to
cover more than two boats at time
Major Hearn points out that the four
serious defects in the defenses of the

| traverses to protect the batteries from
| reverse fire; no earth protection for the
base-end stations battle and fire COM

ments completely enclosing the post

lights. Col A. C. Blunt, C. A. c., con-
ours in the just commendatery remarks
made by other officers of the work done
by the National Guardsmen during the
joint Coast Defense exercises of last
season. He observes that many of the
men when it came to ramming home
| the heavy 10-inch and 12-ineh proiec-
tiles, lifting dummy cartridge cases and
working the breech of the heavy guns,
showed their physical shortcomings. He
thinks that not over 25 per cent of
them would have passed the physical
examination for Regular service. Many
were very intelligent and well fitted te
take responsible positions in the range
finder sections and as telephone opera
tors, and there were plenty of eompe
tent electricians. From fire command

New York Herald, January Sec
rotary of the Navy Newberry viii be
asked to face hostile subcommittee
of the House Committee on Naval Al
fairs tomorrow afternoon, when he will
discuss with them the recent executive
order removing marines from naval
vessels. The subcommittee has been
increased to nine members for the oc-
casion, five of whom viii be Demo
Gratis. The ground work for a lively
session was laid in the general hearing,
when Paymaster Richards, of the Ma
rine Corps, estimated the increase in
cost of substituting sailors for marines
aboard ship at $497 900 annually.
1t is understood to be the intention
of some members of the Naval Affairs
Committee to insert in the Naval APP
preparation bill an inhibition prohibit
ing the pay of marines unless they are
permitted to serve aboard ship as for
merly.
Secretary Newberry will appear be-
fore the full Naval Affairs Committee
tomorrow morning to present his views
on the increase in the navy.

TELLS. OF BANFF
Beauties of the Mountain
Resort on the Canadian
Pacific Railway

Editor Of THE EVENING JOURNAL
In Revelstoke, b. c., after days trip
yesterday from Banff, through the Rocky
Mountains.
I should revise my figures, given in
previous letter, in regard to the altitude
Of the mountains at Banff. 1 should also
point out that Banff is only village. but
the Traveller never thinks Of it as a village.
as the village is away off 10 Itself in
corner To the traveller Banff is the Cana
dian Pacific Railway. Hotel, built in
beautiful valley surrounded by noun
tRins. The village is mile away.
North Of the hotel is Cascade mountain,
9,s25 feet altitude; south of the hotei, Tun-
mel Mountain is 1865 feet. East and west
are also mountains nearly as high. 1 gave
the height of these mountains 1900 feet
and now find that my figures were too
low
The early morning at Bann was indeed
interesting ana delightful. At dawn the
mountain to the east looked like a huge
black cloud, then a little later the co.or
changed to a dark blue. A few minutes
later one is reminded Of a mountan n Of
iron reaching to the sky; then as the light
increases, the trees on the side of the
mountain are to be seen and soon the
base of the mountain is in view.
. While watching the ever-changing colors
on the mountain to the east one is inter-
ested in noting the effect Of the rising
suns rays on the mountains to the west.
First the highest pinnacle on the west is
touched by the suns days, giving 1t a
bright golden color; then in moment an
other pinnacle is lighted up, then another
and another until all the western peaks
are aglow. 1t Just keeps one busy watch
ing the continually changing panorama
'Oh, look up there quick" you hear a
visitor exclaim and then every one looks
in the direction indicated only to be in
terrupted a moment later by some one else
pointing out excitedly another and per-
haps a greater surprise. And thus a few
minutes of great interest are passed until
the sun pokes his rim above the highest
mountain and then it is day and the VS.

From Banh to Revelstoke 23o miles, il
is one surprise after another. To the right,
at the side OF the train, is a rugged
mountain of perhaps 5000 feet altitude; to
the immediate left a beautiful silver
stream flows through a valley one thous-
and feet below the railroad while from
this valley rises a mountain five thousand
feet above the train. Occasionally 9

small stream of water comes rushing
headlong down a mountain from a glacier
5000 feet above the train. often while go
ing through the nlecillewaet Valley and
the Rogers Pass, the passengers in the
observation car just look at one another
in awe, without being alb c to give express
sion TO their feelings. Occasionally the
tlmid are heard 10 sigh I'm relief when
some fearful precpice has been passed or
bridge over an awful chasm has been
crossed. But there is really no danger, fof
the roadbed is built strongly, the cars are
OF the most approved form Of construction
and the trains are run slowly. 1 am in
formed that no passenger has ever met
with an accident in the mountain division
Of the c. r. r. The solid construction oc
the roadbed, the reliably built cars and
engines and the general railroad equip-
ment are an eloquent tribute to the hon
es.y enc integrity Of man.
Glacier House, 40 miles west OF Banff,
consists of the c. p. r. hotel and few
other buildings It is built in a small
bowl-shaped valley the mountains and
glaciers being so near, apparently so, that
one feels he could stand at the station
and shoot a deer on them. This Is one of
the most picturesque places along the en-
tire line. Standing at the station, one can
not see how the train got into the place
or how il will get out
On the station platform the sun shone
bright and the weather was warm and
balmy: up on the mountain tops, apparent
~ so near at hand, is snow and ice that
have been there for years. Here is summer
and winter wondrously combined.

rises mile and a quarter above the rail-
road. Its altitude is 1880 feet. This great
pyramid appears to reach right up intC
the sky. The other mountains that sur
