LAWS ON EATING.
Meals at One Time Were Regulated
by statute In England.

On Nov. 2, 1890. law came Into
force In England for the regulation OF
meals and continued 10 have place on
the statute book until 1867, II was de
signed TO check the evils resulting from
an excessive use Of costly meats and
enacted that no one should partake at
any place or time except ON specified
festivals and holidays 10 the number
OF sixteen days year. OF more than
two courses, each not consisting of
more than two sorts OF vlctuals, either
flesh or fish, with the common sorts Of

DANGER FROM FIRE.

People Of Astoria little realize the
dangers attending the construction OF
oil tanks in the business portion OF the
city. They are represented in the coun-
Gil by business men, to guard the inter-
ests of the city and see that needed
legislation is secured to protect the
lives and property Of the community
The building Of storage oil tanks in the
contemplated location will not only de-
tract from the value of real estate In
that vicinity, but the dangers from fire
cannot be estimated. Most Of the
buildings are of wood, and once a fire
gets started, famed by the winds. and
aided by the bursting Of an oil tank
will render the saving of property i'm
possible The northwest winds that
usually prevail in the winter. in the
event OF a fire, would sweep the entire
business portion of the city away. The
loss would be thousands and tens Of
thousands Of dollars. and the loss would
fall in a majority of instances on peo-
pie who can i'll afford 1t.
Where the mistake was made in the
first place. was in allowing the Stand
ard Oil Company to build any storage
tanks within the city limits. But II
is not too late to stop the building OF
any more. The interests Of the people
demand speery legislation for the pre-
vention Of the erection Of any more oil
tanks in the city limits, and particular
ly at the location now contemplated. |
The common council should give this
matter its prompt attention at the
next meeting Of the council. Ordinances
have ben passed preventing the stor-
age Of gun powder and other combusti-
bles in the city limits, and coal oil and
gasoline stored In large quantities are
equally as dangerous.
