FIRE EscArE oRpINANcE.

Cftfxen of MontRonsery Declares Law Ia
 Ignorea.
 A we'll known citizen of Montgomery writes the following letter:
 Editor The Advertiser:
 Noticing the terrible catastrophe In Cleveland. O.. where something like ITO children perished in flames. and almost a repetition of that catastrophe ir7 Grand Rapids. Mich.. calls to memory the fact that the Montgomery City Council has. more than . year ago, passed an ordinance requiring fire es- cApes on hotels. office buildisgs, facto- ries, school buildings, theaters and coi- leges. more than three stories high, in the city of Montgomery. It Is to be regretted that absolutely no attention has been paid to the enforcement of this law.
 No man can tell the day nor the hour when such a catastrophe may Jbefal1 this fair city of ours. and then the peo- pie will rise up in indignation. and somebody will be almost criminaIly liable for the non-enforcement of the law. Some may say that there 10 no necessity for fire escapes on Ire proof buildings, vet dare say the owners of fire proof buildings carry full in- surance as a protection of said prop erty.
 For the safety of the good people of our city. will you please be kind enough to call attention to the non-enforce- ment of this law. and urgent neces- sity of all buildings where children and people gather, to be we'll eouippe6 with Are escapes"

SUMNER TIME WEATHER WILL
 CONTINUE, SAYS DEPARTMENT
Low Area Is Over Utah. May Remain
 There.

Low Area Ta Over Utah. HEay Remain
 Almost summer like weather will continue over the Southern states through today, was the prediction of the weather bureau for today. The barometer area or storm centre which Is at present hanging over Utah, seems dfsinciined to move. and until 1t does the fair weather will continue in Montgomery and vicinity.
 The highest temperature recorded by the weather bureau yesterday was 7s degrees. and the lowest reached was 5e degrees. The cold area which was expected to affect this section to some extent unexpectedly moved on directly eastward, waking the weather In the northeastern section of the country rather cool.
 An area. of low barometer or storm centre central over Utah for the last two days. had caused rain or snow in scattered portions of the central and lake districts. The course of this storm centre is problsmatical, though it seems that it ia slowly developing a tendency to move directly eastward. Its course for the next few days will be watched eagerly for upon 1t depends the summer weather here.
 . The weather bureau states that the weather in the Southern states will not change as long as this low area re. mains where 1t is.
 The upper Coosa and the lower Ala. banaa will rise very slowly or remain stationary during today
