Mayor Richardson yesterday APP
proved an ordinance extending the fire
limits on certain streets in Fulton, pre-
venting the future erection in that
section of frame buildings or shingle
roofs. He also approved an ordinance
in the Code in regard to Hollywood
Cemetery 1t seems that for some time
past there has been no record of per-
mission for interments in Hollywood,
and the Code forbids burials in other
than licensed cemeteries. The over
sight probably dates back to the time
when the old part of tho burying
