MAY BE NEEDED BADLY.

While the public mind is yet eharg
ed with the question of fires in places
of popular assembly, ii may not be
amiss to call attention to the fact that
there are a number Of buildings in this
city given over to public use, which
are totally without any sort of ex-
traneous fire-escapes. 1t is grave
oversight and should be remedied within
the hour. Notable among these omis-
sions is that of Logan's Hall, one of the
most popular and most frequently
crowded edifees in the city, with but
one channel of egress for the hundreds
visiting it. in the event of a.eOnhagra-
ton, and in case escape was cut oil
from that single rear stairway. the re-
suits might be appalling. II is wretch
ed economy that waits upon the issue
of a disaster to correct desperate evils
that might have been easily and time
fully avoided, and the case in point is
one of the most conspicuous now under
consideration though there are others
that will be touched upon in due course.
Do now, what public sentiment will
compel later; credit for foresight is a
whole lot more palatable than reppach
for neglect.

Lord Roberts has renewed his warn.
ing TO Great Britain that she needs a
far larger army if she is to be prepared
for all emergencies in Europe and in
India. He places the limit at 100000
men, which suggests that possibly in
meeting such a demand the empire
might relieve the strain of the unem'
ployed by taking such as are suitable
into the military service. The burden
to the nation probably would be no
greater, while menace would then be
converted into security.
