CITY AND DISTRICT.
OFFICIAL HEARING GIVEN.
Question Whether or Not Dwelling
Can Appear as Half House.

a full hearing upon half number will be
given by the board of Commissioners soon,
the question having been raised whether or
not residence can be made to appear nu
merically as one-half a house.
The whole problem came about through
Frank a. Butts of 2o1012 18th street north
west requesting that his number be changed
50 that It win hereafter be known without
the half. Mr.. Butts has long desired to
have the change made but his neighbors
have just as consistently opposed the plan,
claiming that such a change would necessi-
tate REMEMBERING the entire block, changing
name plates visiting cards, stationery,
numbers on deeds and insurance papers
and IN the city and telephone directories.
With such a complicated situation before
them the Commissioners determined to set
tie the question by permitting the entire
neighborhoOd interested 10 express their
views at a public hearing, and all communi-
cations were answered to this effect The
date of the hearing has not yet been fixed.

FIRST TO TAKE ACTION.
Government Departments Complying
With Fire Escape Law

Apparently the government departments
intend 10 waste no time In preparing to
comply with the new fire escape law. Sec
rotary of Agriculture James T. Wilson has
written to the District Engineer Commits
sioner requesting inspection of the fire
escape equipment of the Atlantic building.
which is occupied by the forestry service,
and report of this inspection was for
Warded to Mr.. Wilson yesterday.
According to the finding of A. NJ. Lawson,
inspector of fire escapes, the Atlantic build
ing has but one escape, which is located on
the rear WALL SO that it Is necessary to
pass through rooms to get to It, Many OF
the windows, he says, obstructed by
large glass pictures of forest trees that are
liable to cause serious injury to persons by
breaking in time of panic.
'The landing ladder is suspended by
rope fastened at both ends and would make
escape difficult in time of great excite
ment'' the report continues. THE front
part of the building is divided from the rear
by the elevator shafts and a large open
stairway extending from the lower to the
top floors, and the bottom of the shafts do
not terminate In freproof compartments,
as required by the act of Congress ap-
proved March 10, 1906. There are no alarm
gongs, guide signs or exit marking.
