Fire Escsnes

The attention of the Mayor and the building inspector of Birmingham is called to the fact that few of the tall buildings here are provided with fire escapes. There was time, not many years ago, when Birmingham had no high structures Even five years ago the buildings of more than three stories were very rare; and in the ab- sence of tall structures little thought was given to fire escapes.
 But Birmingham now contains sew eral skyscrapers and many buildings of five and six stories, to say nothing of large factories. Every tall building without fire escapes means the lives of the occupants would be in great peril in case of fire or stampede from any cause. No building is fireproof when it is in line of conf1agration. A fire escape ordinance should be rig idly enforced.

First Proclaim ation.

Il read with a great deal of interest the first Thanksgiving proclamation issued by a president of the United States" said member of the Virginia colony yes terday. The proclamation was issued by George Washington on January l. 1795, in the nineteenth year of the independence of the United States. In part the procla- nation is as follows:
 "I. George Washington. president of the United States. do recommend all re- ligious societies and denominations, and to all persons whomsoever within the United States, to set apart and observe Thursday the 18th of February next. as a day of public thanks and prayer, ana on that day to meet together and render their service and hearty thanks to the Great Ruler of nations for the manifold and signal mercies which distinguish our lot as a nation. particularly for the DOS session of constitutions of government which unite. and by their union establish liberty with order for the preservation of peace, foreign and domestic, for the sea- sonable control. which has been given to a spirit of disorder in the suppression of the late nsurrection. and generally for the prosperous course of our affairs public and private. and at the same time humbly and fervently to beseech the kind Author of these blessings graciously to prolong them to u. to imprint on our hearts q

The expected has happened. Rich ard A. McCurdy has resigned the pres idency of the Mutual Life Insurance company because of failing health. He follows in the footsteps of Alexan. der and Hyde, taking with him a shat. tered reputation and leaving behind a record for mismanagement and colos- sal crookedness which oversteps that of the Equitable officials to such an extent that they appear aldiost honest in comparison.
 In the insurance disclosures made before the legislative Investigating committee of New York the McCurdys have been painted blacker than their contemporaries in graft, although it must be confessed that all are bad enough. The McCurdys did their graft ing in communistic family sort of way that made it triply effective. Richard A. McCurdy, Robert H. Me Curdy and Son-In-Law Thebaud fed

Confederate History.

Commander Thomas w. Owen of the United Sons of Confederate Veter- ans is urging the members of that or ganization to redouble their historical research in an effort to abrogate abuses in school histories and bring to light facts that should form a part of the true history of the Confectionery. MT. Owen, in his capacity as director of the department of archives and his tory at Montgomery, has done much to unearth valuable data relating to the Confederacy and he should re. ceive every encouragement. The vet erans, sons of veterans. mothers and grandmothers can all help. Before long eye witnesses of the stirring scenes which the south beheld during the civil war will all be dead and it is best to get historical information whenever possible from first sources.
 The Age-Herald has made a practice of publishing articles written by Con- federate veterans and read at meetings of the various camps. > The Age-H Herald believes that no better plan could be devised for clearing up disputed facts and keeping interest alive in the cause for which the Confederate veterans fought so nobly. The series of articles written by Judge w. R. Houghton of Birmingham were especially able and brilliant. They attracted wide atten- ton.
 Contributions from other Confeder- ate veterans who fought through the civil war will be found from time to time in The Age Herald These arti- cles are always interesting, frequently amusing and invariably worth reading. To the younger generation they fur nish sidelights on war times that could not be obtained from histories.

Italian Emierants.

notice in the press dispatches that Baron Mayor Des Ranches, ambassador to the United States, has had a confer ence with Foreign Minister Tittoni in Rome, in which he says that Italian emi- grants should be advised to come to the southern states when they reach Amer lea, said member of the Italian colony in Birmingham. "This statement on the part of the ambassador was the direct result of his recent visit south. during which he visited Birmingham and was entertained here
 T think that this report he made will result in many thousand Italians coming 10 the south and I would like to see the Birmingham district secure a large num- Der of these immigrants. Some plan should be adopted whereby a represen- tative from the Birmingham commercial bodies could get in touch with the inlml- grants and see if it is not possible to turn the time of immigra ton into this district
 Tt Is fact no longer denied that the Italians in the Birmingham district make excellent laborers and especially in the mines. There are large numbers of them and they are as good miners as any in the district As a rule they are sober and industrious, and they idle very little.
 would like to see several thousand of my countrymen settle in the Birming- ham district They can secure good wages here and steady employment"

Concerning Vulcan.

q understand that the Commercial club will consider the offer of the Bes- semer Board of Trade to pay the in debtedness of Vulcan at the meeting to- morrow afternoon" said a member of the club yesterday. "The proposition of Bes- semer Is to pay the debt and take the iron man and erect him near Bessemer.
 'I do not believe that the club will ac- cept the proposition. In fact, am sure 1t will not, for it would be an everlast- ing reflection on Birmingham. l do. how ever, believe that the offer of the Bes- semer board should serve to stimulate the Commercial club to action. and that it should take immediate steps to pay the debt and erect the iron man either in Birmingham or on the mountain over looking the city
 T know Birmingham business men well enough to know that if the matter is pre- scented to them properly they will put their shoulders to the wheel and raise enough money to get the iron man out of debt in short while. The longer we put the matter off the harder it will be to raise the money, and for one believe in going at the proposition at once and getting through with it. have sub scribed liberally according to my ability in the past, and am ready to do so again if necessary"
