and in her great affliction she had the
sympathy of our people.

The Baltimore Gazette has been pub

lio halls and . churches in Baltimore,
with respect to the opportunities they
offer for the escape of audiences in case
of a disaster such as recently occurred
at Ilotvoke, Massachusetts. As was to
have been expected, a large number of
the churches and public halls are com
plete traps, from which a terror-stricken
audience would be unable to escape
without loss of life and litnb- A peti
tion has been addressed to the Balti,
more City Council, asking for the en
actment of an ordinance requiring the
doois of public buildings to be hereafter
erected to have their doors hung so as
to open outwardly. The Gazette
properly says that the ordinance should

be taken against disaster in new build
