Council Still Tinkering with the Fire
Ordinance.


The fire ordinance introduced in the
City Council twoweeks ago was taken up
last night. After amendment it was
recommitted to the special committee
from which itwas reported, and was
made a special order for an adjourned
meeting.
A spirited debate took place on the
matter OF boundaries. The ordinance
was taken up seriatim.
Alderman Thomas moved to amend
sec. by making the eastern boundary OF
the brick district Price street from South
Broad street to Taylor, and Habersham
street from Taylor to Huntingdon. Alder
man Wells moved to amend by making
Price street from South Broad street to
Gw1nnett the eastern boundary.
A lively debate followed, and Alderman
Thomas motion was carried.
Huntington street was then substituted
Tor Castor street lane as the southern
boundary Of the brick district.
Alderman Hamlet moved to amend by
making Gwinnett street the boundary
street, as at present. He was opposed to
bringing in the limits. The motion was
lost by vote of nine to three, Alder
men Hamlet, Wells and Ham
iltOn voting in opposition to
north than it now reaches. When the
question came upon Alderman Thomas
motion TO make Huntingdon street the
boundary line, Alderman Hamlet sarcas-
tically moved that the boundary be
brought in as far as South Broad street.
The latter motion was voted down, and
Alderman Thomas motion prevailed.
The pr0Yiso with reference to the erec-
tion of frame buildings in the district
south of Huntington street, north of
Gwinnett street, east of Montgomery
street, and west OF Habersham street,
was also amended so as to prohibit the
erection of any frame structure within )
feet of the boundary line OF any adjoining
lot.
Alderman Thomas then moved that the
ordinance be rec0mmitted to the special
committees. A spirited debate followed
upon the motion to recommit. Alderman
Thomas said that while he was in favor of
the ordinance, he considered it too i'm
pOrtant matter to be acted upon hastily.
If it should be put upon its passage at
once he should vote against it on the
ground that be was opposed to rushing
important legislation. 1t was finally dis
posed of by recommitment and will be
taken up at an adjourned meeting.

the animal kingdom is the much-dreaded
gorilla. This beast, among other
attractions, carries head OF
short, bristly hair, and one of
the animals preparations for battle
is to pass the paw rapidly down the crown
OF the head to the eyes, thus bringing the
front hair straight out and giving an
aspect of ferocity that never fails to in-
spire the utmost terror. So well under
stood is this gesture that among the
gOrilla's fellow countrymen it is the
signal for an instantaneous and headlong
scamper from the spot, and as the female
gorilla in defense Of her young is even
worse than the male, certain African
dialects have an expression, "a female
gorilla with her front hair down." TO in
dictate the extremity OF ferocious bearing.
In time it came to pass that when Afri-
can ladies were abused by their husbands
they adopted the same gesture, and so
far as the hair was concerned, with The
same result. Then certain wives, to in
dictate their readiness for battle at all sea-
sons, took to wearing their hair drawn
over their foreheads, and the fashion rap
idly spread to young ladies, who wore
their hair IN this style insinuating their
resolve never to submit to matrimonial
tyranny. The idea spread and the bang
flourished alike in African deserts, on
the banks of the Ganges, OF the Thames
and OF the Mississippi. Thus does scien-
titic research sGed light on social topics,
and even the monstrosities of female cos
tune are shown to have their origin in
intelligent action; for nothing is more
reasonable than that, as one animal
taught man how to build his house and
another how to catch his dinner, his wife
from third should learn how to dress
her hair.
