 %W many Montrealers know Montreal ? Probably 
 ' they all think they do. but do they ? The city 
 proper, the closely built business quarter, where 
 men swelter out the summer days in the con- 
 finement of their great palaces of commerce, 
 they are familiar with, and so are they more 
 or less with the more populous residential quar- 
 ters where seclusiveness and man's inherent love of a 
 neacefnl restful home have succeeded so far m resistmg 
 the invasion of trade. But it is only Little Montreal 
 that is comprised within the thirteen wards of the city corpora- 
 tion Montreal really extends far beyond its mun.crpal lim.ts 
 i The men who do the busi.iess of the city, who have brought 
 - to Montreal th" trade of half a continent, are looking beyond 
 the limits of the city for homes. Although man is pre- 
 eminently a sociable animal, he prefers an isolated home if he 
 can acquire it. He is neighborly, but he prefers a home 
 surrounded by flower gardens rather than one hemmed ,n by 
 the houses of his neighbors, as in the confined city. So, when 
 a man has acquired the means to provide himself with an deal 
 home and is not prepared to pay hundreds of Aousamls of 
 dollars for a site to build it on, he has to go beyond the cty 
 limits for a location. So it comes that the country contiguous 
 to the busy city, is the home of thousands of Montrealers. It 
 appears to be only a question of time before 'h^ whole of this 
 fertile island can fairly be described as Greater Montreal. 
 
What fairer country on earth either, than this great 
 district so rapidly being dotted with the homes of Montreal 
 people ! Scenes of rural beauty there are to enchant the artist 
 and inspire the poet, while historical associations cling to 
 picturesque spots and quaint structures to inspire the patriotism 
 of the Canadian and excite the interest and the admiration of 
 the stranger. If the people of Montreal have been compara- 
 tively ignorant of the natural beauties of the lovely country 
 contiguous to their fair city, they have no excuse for conti- 
 nuing in ignorance any longer. Like ma y other goods 
 we enjoy in this latter part of the nineteenth century, we owe 
 this boon to that subtle power, that very latest and most up to 
 date necromancer, electricity. Heretofore rural Montreal has 
 been comparatively a sealed book to Montrealers because the 
 highway was the only means available to reach its solitudes. 
 Every citizen of Montreal does not own a horse or the time to 
 indulge in long drives and none of us enjoy the blinding dust 
 of a country highway It would have been almost sacrilege to 
 desecrate this rural paradise with the screaching, the dust and 
 the cinders of the steam railway. Where the steam railway, 
 with its objectionable locomotives, would have meant complete 
 ruination to the natural beauties of the adjacent country, the 
 electric railway has been introduced, giving perfect communi- 
 cation between the very heart of the city and some of the most 
 remote and most lovely parts of the surrounding country. 
 The country has rtually been brought to the city, and the 
 magician who has accomplished it all is the Montreal Park 
 
 and Island Railway. 
 
 So far, this enterprise is in comparatively an incomplete 
 stage of developement. Before long its system will include a 
 net- work of tracks grid-ironing the whole island. At present

 it is operating two main routes, one running up St. Lawrence 
 Street, thence to the Back Rive-, the other running up Bleury 
 Street' and Park Avenue, passing through Montreal Annex 
 and Outreniont to C6te-des-Neiges, whence it is at the present 
 moment being convinued round the Western spur of the moun- 
 tain to connect with the Street Railway Company's system, 
 providing a complete circuit of the "two mountains," for the 
 Park and Island Railway Company has the privilege of run- 
 ning its cars over the Street Railway tracks within the city. 
 
 A trip over either of the Company's present routes is a 
 great treat, enabling a tourist, with the minimum of discom- 
 fort to enjoy a magnificent succession of pretty landscapes; 
 and pretty landscapes, liko pretty faces, have ever been a 
 pleasure to the eye since the world began.

passes over the ground trodden by the troops of the Imperial 
 army on many a gala field day. In honor of the Queen's 
 Birthday numerous reviews of the Canadian militia have been 
 held here, and in line with them, on three or four occasions, 
 have stood the soldiers of the United States. Upon one occa- 
 sion the Thirteenth Regiment N. Y. N. G., attended by its 
 chaplain, the great Henry Ward Beecher, came all the 
 way from Brooklyn to do honor to the birthday of Victoria the 
 good, a delicate act of international courtesy that Canadians 
 will not forget for many a year. As you rush along over the 
 rolling green sward, you get a beautiful view of the boldest 
 front of Mount Royal, the majestic height of land which gave 
 
 at once to Montreal her name 
 and her beauty. From your 
 car window this side of the 
 mountain appears to be 
 even more precipitous 
 than it really is, the 
 result being a very 
 impressive view. The 
 huge moss - covered 
 rocks which project 
 their jagged corners 
 from the trees and 
 brushwood give a solem- 
 nity to this aspect of Mount 
 Royal which is missing on 
 the other sides. But your car is 
 humming along, you soon pass 
 the capacious exhibition grounds where are annually held the 
 Montreal industrial exhibitions, and you lind yourself running

 your car carries you swiftly along the Outremont Road you 
 catch glimpses of palatial residences ahnost hidden among the 
 dense groves on your left. To your right you overlook as 
 pretty and home-like a succession of suburban villas as can be 
 seen in the outskirts of London or New York, each house 
 surrounded by a flower garden, prettier than the one next to 
 it, if that were possible. Outremont is no longer a long 
 straggling place of one main street and a fire station. New 
 avenues are being opened out and many handsome homes have 
 already been built upon them. The builder's hammer marks 
 the time for the rich medley of the song birds. Beyond, to the 
 North, is a lovely, peaceful pastoral scene, the beauty of which 
 any one with a soul in his body could appreciate. Stately

 farm building. Tin covered spires, glittering high above the 
 tallest trees, reveal the presence of the numerous village 
 churches. For an instant or two you catch a di.stant glimmer 
 of water. It is the Back River, and away beyond it again 
 you have the heavy outline of the Laurentian Hills, form- 
 ing a magnificent back ground. Even when winter, the 
 eternal symbol of jealousy, has revenged itself of this fertile 
 beauty with harsh chuckles, there remains beauty in this 
 landscape. 
 
 It is here that the home seeker will ftod the fine property 
 laid out for building lots by Dr. McKachran (see advertise- 
 ment pag. 35) and no finer situation nor more advantageous 
 plan in every way can be found on that side of the mountain. 
 
 But there is something to interest you on the mountain 
 side too. The line has gradually been drawing away from the 
 main rise of the Mountain, and when with another sharp curve 
 to the left, your car turns round towards Maplewood, you 
 realize that a village has sprung up as if by magic between the 
 Outremont Road and the^ Mountain, another result of the 
 construction of the Park and Island Railway. Between rows 
 of pretty houses, the car climbs straight up the slope to a spot 
 at the very base of the main slope o. the Mountain. Here a 
 broad avenue, apparently destined to be the Pine Avenue of 
 Northern Montreal, makes a magnificent thoroughfare to 
 Cote-des-Neiges. Fine houses are being built or have been 
 built here, and picturesque homes they make, with the abrupt,

 generally before devoting themselves to the demolition, with 
 neatness and despatch, of a snowshoe supper. 
 
 Cote-des-Neiges, although heretofore very inaccessible, 
 has for years been a fashionable residential suburb of the 
 
 city, several influential city famihes having 
 made their homes there. Among the 
 notable residences are those of Mr. Gougeon 
 and Mr. Claude, and a fine brick block 
 owned also by Mr. Claude. 
 
 A branch line of the railway runs to 
 the very entrance of Cote-des-Neiges Ro- 
 man Catholic Cemetery, one of the most 
 historical and picturesque cities of the 
 dead on the continent of America. On 
 ^sn^ the most imposing point in the ceme- 
 J ^ tery, a monument which strikes the 
 ^ eye immediately upon entering the 
 massive gates, of severely classical 
 archileciure, is a very tall obelisk of limestone, a monu- 
 ment erected to the Patriots of 1837, the men who were 
 killed in the actions of the Rebellion of that year or ex- 
 ecuted after the uprising had been put down. Further back 
 in the cemetery is a very handsome monument erected over 
 the grave of the late Sir Geo. K. Cartier, who was also a 
 leader in the rel)ellion, but lived long enough afterwards to 
 be the leader of the French Conservatives and to receive 
 knighthood from the Queen in recognition of his services 
 to the Crown.

 Religious distinctions have to be preserved after death, and 
 a fence separates the Cote-des-Neiges Cemetery from the 
 Protestant burial ground— Mount Royal Cemetery. The latter 
 is, in several respects, the more picturesque cemetery of the two. 
 From its upper slopes can be had what is certainly one of the 
 most lovely scenes in this world of loveliness. Your gaze 
 passes from the silent abode of Montreal's dead, across the 
 beautiful valleys, the green fields, the trim orchards, and the 
 church-adorned and peaceful villages of the Island of Montreal, 
 to where I.ake St. I.ouis, its rivulets rippling in the sun, shines 
 round its emerald-like islands as if if were a sea of crystal. On 
 the great monuments of this cemetery appear the names of Sir 
 Hugh Allan, of the Gillespies, the McTavi.shes, the I'orrances, 
 the Mackays, the Gaults, and of many other of the merchant 
 princes of by gone days. Just across the gorgeous bit of land- 
 scape gardening, immediately inside the chaste entrance gate, 
 is the monuuK -it to young Hackett, the Orangeman killed in 
 the Twelfth ot [uly row, on Victoria Square, some years ago, 
 an incident which, it was feared for several years afterwards, 
 would result in further effusions of blood. Another point of 
 attraction for visitors to this cemetery is the magnificent 
 nionument erected over the graves of nearly a dozen members 
 of the Montreal Fire Brigade who have lost their lives, at dif- 
 ferent times, in the discharge of their dangerous duties. 
 
 Fro a a point near the dividing line between the two 
 cemeteries runs a drive and pathway affording easy access to 
 the Pines, the "outlook " and the other points of attraction on 
 the .summit of Mount Royal, the most picturesque and attract- 
 ive part of the celebrated Mountain Park.

 along the side of an apparently virgin bush, the route runs 
 through the northern limits of St. Denis Boulevard and 
 Amherst Park, where may be said to be located the city's 
 outposts, for out here, where it is too far away to distinguish 
 tiie picturesque residences of Outremont, on the mountain side, 
 city mechanics are buying bush lots, clearing the sites and 
 building houses for themselves. Forty or fifty humble dwell- 
 ings, erected close together in one spot, resemble more a clear- 
 ing in the backwoods than the embryonic suburb of a great city.

 A pull of the bell to start again after a stop, to let off a 
 hard-handed son of toil who has spent the night at work in 
 the city, and the car glides through as pretty a bit of bush 
 cutting as one would expect to see on a colonization railway in 
 the far north. Another backwoods-like settlement, with men 
 at work, pulling up stumps in what will some of these days be

 there appears a clump of sumach, noteworthy and oriental in 
 its blaze of dark green and purple foliage and scarlet fruit. 
 
 And what a grand opportunity an electric railway affords 
 for seeing and enjoying a rare bit of scenery like this. The 
 windows of your cozily equipped car are wide open, every one 
 of them. You are in no danger of being choked by dust or 
 being blinded by cinders, for there are neither cinders nor dust 
 on this electric railway. The absence of the torturing cinder 
 is easily understood, and the absence of the equally annoying 
 dust is just as easy to explain. The Park and Island Railway 
 tracks are ballasted with stone, broken macadam, securing at 
 once a solid road bed and freedom from dust. So solid is the 
 road bed that noise and jolting are reduced to the minimum. 
 The cars glide along with an easy rolling motion and with the 
 windows wide open you can carry on conversation as easily as 
 if you were in your own drawing room. It is certainly the 
 nearest approach to perfection we have in the way of travel- 
 ling ashore. 
 
 Meantime we are getting along towards Back River or 
 Sault-au-Recollet. We have come across fields redolent of 
 new mown hay and we have cut through some grand gardens 
 filled with those dear old-fashioned flowers our grandmothers 
 used to love, but which somehow or another have gone out of 
 fashion for the sake of some of these new fangled enamels 
 which are not half as pretty. The car glides along pretty 
 swiftly, but you have time to distinguish, among the treasures 
 of the "habitants " gardens, the gay scarlet lychnis, the blue 
 and white lupin, the digitalis, the quaint columbine, the old

 • 1 . , Visitors from all lands have 
 
 earned away with then, pleasant recollections of their "drive round the 
 ."ounta^n " No part of this charming drive in.presses then, more than 
 Outremont; many have expressed surprise that so few c^-zens of 
 Montreal have made their homes on this beautiful slope of Mount Royal 
 Hitherto owing to want of rapid and cheap connnunication, suburban 
 residences were not practicable ; now, however, with the electric cars of 
 the Park and Island Railway, passing every few minutes, it is no longer 
 necessary for families to live in crowded streets and to pay heavv taxes when 
 they can have beautiful country homes, with gardens and play grounds 
 for tli^.r children, in a healthy suburban town, within fifteen minutes 
 dnve of the centre of the city, at much less cost and nominal taxation 
 The subscriber offers excellent opportunities of acquiring on easy 
 terms of payment, town and villa lots, fronting on a ma/.uificent 
 avenue, 66 feet wide, extending from St. Catherine Road to tiu^ Canadian 
 Pacific Railway, with intersecting cross streets of the same width The 
 facilities now existing, the electric cars of the Park and Island Railway 
 intersecting both ends of the property, makes this the most convenient 
 and accessible suburb of Montreal. 
 
 The property consists of 54 arpents, it is admirably adapted for 
 building purposes, having gravel and rock subsoil, affording dry and 
 solid foundations, easy of drainage. Tiie soil is rich loam mixed with 
 gravel and is unsurpassed for garden and nurserv cultivation. 
 
 This is a rare opportunity for buying building lots which are sure to 
 double in value within a few years. 
 
 The property is bounded on the North by Rockland Avenue, on the 
 West by St. Catherine Road, and the Kast by the Canadian Pacific Ry.

 belonging to the estate of the late Mr. John A. 
 Tiffin : it is most advantageously situated, and far- 
 seeing men have been quietly buying the lots, some 
 of whom have already erected houses, and others 
 intend doing so. The 'act of owners, in the imme-

 above what we are willing to sell for, gives an oppor-

 village Before the railway was built, the village was confined 
 to the river bank, city people are now building villas along 
 broad avenues opened up at right angles to this main 
 
 thoroughfare. 
 
 Sault-au-Recollet is the proper name of the place, and how 
 the popular name. Back River came to be so generally used, it 
 is difficult to say, for the former name perpetuates a martyrdom ; 
 the English name means nothing and it is commonplace. 
 Sault-au-Recollet recalls the heroic days of Canada, when a 
 mere handful of pious men were carrying their lives in their 
 hands in the rash daring hope of subduing this vast country 
 and its savage inhabitants into submission to France and the 
 Roman Catholic Church.

 The Rccollet Friars, as early as 1620, began the trecliou 
 of a convent near Quebec, although the whole population, 
 including the monk, did not exceed 50 souls. But such was 
 the devotional spirit of the time that different monastic orders 
 were enabled through the liberality of the pious in France to 
 found amidst the Canadian wilds vast establishments of educa- 
 tion and beneficence which are still the boasts of the French 
 Canadians. In 1618 Pope Paul IV. accorded, at the instance 
 of the French Ambassador, the charge of missions in Canada 
 to the Recollets of Paris. Several of these religious men lived 
 and died among the natives, and they were the only mis- 
 sionaries in the colony until 1624, when Father Le Ciat gave 
 an invitation to a few Jesuits to come over from France. As 
 the Recollets were the earliest missionaries to Canada, so were 
 they the first to disappear from it. 
 
44 
 
 It was soon after the Recollets came to Canada, that 
 P'ather Nicholas Vien, an intrepid member of the order, under- 
 took a long journey into the interior with Huron Indians as 
 guides. The missionary's canoe, it is supposed by the design 
 of the Indians, was upset in the rapids at Sault-au-RecoUet, 
 and Father Vien was drowned, hence the name given to the 
 
 rapids and transferred to 
 the village. 
 
 Sault-au-Recollet is a 
 typical French Canadian 
 village ; in many respects 
 the most quaint and cha- 
 racteristic on the Island of 
 Montreal. Its main street 
 with its little houses, its 
 French ovens, its old way- 
 side crosses and its old- 
 fashioned gardens, might 
 be taken for a section of one 
 of the quaint country roads 
 about Quebec. Its parish 
 church, the original of which 
 was built in 175 1 , twenty- five years before the United States de- 
 clared their independence, is a splendid specimen of the old- 
 fashioned Roman style of architecture so popular last century in 
 our country parishes. Perhaps the glory, though, of Sault-au- 
 Recollet is its convent, the famous Sacred Heart Convent, 
 where have been educated the daughters of many of the 
 leading families of the United States and of Canada. Among 
 its pupils it, at one time, numbered Miss Davis, the daughter of 
 Jefferson Davis, the President of the Confederated States. At

 The Back River is not one of those streams which is too 
 idle to grind the corn that grows upon its banks, but provides 
 a considerable water power. So far a paper mill is the chief 
 industry of the place, and lovers of the picturesque will hope 
 that commercial enterprise will never be allowed to interfere 
 with the natural beauties and quaint antiquities of Sault-
