their duty to the public by attending to this

or law should be passed regulating all build
ing in the city, so as to make the structures as
nearly fireproof ~ possible. We rarely hear Of
great fires in Paris, because houses are so con-
structed. The destruction Of property and,life
in this city is fearful, because houses are notso
constructed. The HERALD Office has been seve-
raj times in danger from fires in surrounding
buildings and would have been destroyed,

partment connected with the establishment
That saved US: but few establishments can

call the attention Of property holders to this
fact and we ask the city authorities to do
whatever they can to make the reform. Let
them begin with the places Of amusement.
