Some Comment as to Bamberg.

We made a flying visit to Bamberg a
few days ago and having heard that il
was a live town we looked around lit being
about the dullest time of the week. and it
looked almost like November sale day
in Barnwell.
It REQUIRED such men as H. J. Brabham,
Dr.J. B. Black, Sheriff Hunter and others
of the like to explain the matter to a
stranger. Mr.. Brabham, whom we take
to be the youngest Confederate soldier, is
now engaged in caring for the almighty
dollar, of which the town seems to have
an abundance, he being president OF the
bank.
DR.. Black, who is too well known
throughout the State to need any COM
ment from US, is successful merchant
and physician, and while not politician
is a member of the House of Representa-
tives from his county. And Capt. Hunter,
who lost leg in the war between the
States, has lost nothing else. We were
royally entertained at his residence. We
should not wonder if he should turn out
to be poor some day, if he keeps such a
table as we sat down to and has much
company.
1t would seem, at glance, that Bam-
berg has an extra number of killings, but
when we come to examine the statistics
and think of the immense increase in the
inhabitants of various classes we have
decided that it is no worse than some
other places. The people appear to be
powerful rich and mighty poor; but not
being a socialist we found no great fault of
that, and not believing in luck we think
the people of Bamberg have made their
wealth by shrewd management and start.

People.

been supplied. and these "luxuries"
are to be to-day served to the men.
By all ranks the greatest satisfaction
is expressed at the new quarters, and,
although the men wished the old hulks
an affectionate farewell, they are very
glad indeed to be done with them. The
procession from the hulks was a mile
long, and when the men were seen
pouring out of the three vessels it
struck everybody as miraculous how
such a number of men could have eX-
listed within such confined quarters.
The area of the new barracks is sixty
times greater than the old quarters.
Before the men were dismissed TO
their blocks yesterday Commander
Stileman gave the men an encouraging
address. He gave everybody leave for
the evening who could be spared, and
announced that. with the greater IA

given in future, this remark being re-

concluded with three cheers for the

ROPE FOR L0DGERS
Must Be Provided by Hotel Men
Under New Fire Es- -
cape Law.
Hotels Having Iron Fire Escapes Ex-
cepted-Lodging Houses
Chiefly Affected.

In about a fortnight the law passed
by the last legislature to protect the lives
Of hotel guests from fire will go into
effect. 1t provides that there shall be
more than one means of egress from each
floor above the first floor; also that in
each outside bedroom there shall be in
plain sight three-eights inch rope Sc
curely fastened in the room and leading
directly to the ground. Failure to comply
with this law renders the hotel manager
liable to imprisonment for not more than
ninety days or fine not in excess OF
$500.
Building Inspector James G. Houghton
says that the law will not cause local
bon1faces any expense. The new
relieves all hotels prvided with metal
fire escapes from maintaining rope fire
escapes. The city ordinances compel
fire escapes on all hotel buildings Of three
or more stories. This ordinance has Been
vigorously enforced and Mr.. Houghtor
says hotel guests are already as well
protected here as the law can make them
The new building ordinance is very strin-
| gent with regard to hotels, schools and

stories not provided with rope fire es.
| capes they will have to comply with the
| law and get some rope.
| There will be some question as to the
responsibility for inspection to see If thu
law is obeyed. Mr.. Houghton says that i
is no part of the building inspectors du
ties look over hotels and lodging house!

probably rest with the police. The lattel

MASTERS TO CONFER.

Laborers.
Skilled Unions Believe Laborers
Should Not Have Too
Much Power.

The Master. Builders association was
to meet late to-day to select a committee
to meet representatives of the strikers for
the purpose of determining whether the
trouble between the Building Laborers'
union and the contractors can be arbi-
trated. II the sentiment expressed by
several contractors this morning is gen
eral the association is not likely to ar
bitrate on mere recognition Of the union.
while we would like to assist In set
Ting this difficulty, the stnemasons,
bricklayers, carpenters, structural IRON
workers and other unions employed on
buildings will go on a sympathetic strike
unless the situation warrants it, and 1t
cetainly does not warrant it now" said
Harvey Nelson, member Of the bricklay
ers' arbitration committee. this morning.
IF the Building Laborers union, now
on strike, gains it's point and gets the
contractors to sign the scale, it will be
in a position to dictate to all other unions
on building work, and we can only work
when they say SO. It would give them
! too much power. They would contro
every situation, and we. who earn twice
as much money, would have to go Out
when they said so.'' ...
