Show Apropos of Thb 'Jimes' comment on "Hotel Horrors" we find this in the Boston Herald: s The Byracuse hotel, the burning of which was attended with such a ten lble loss of life was well built and thoroughly equipped with Are escapes and all needed appliances. The usual moral that is drawn from such experiences experi-ences with the flames Is, therefore, uot appropriate appro-priate In thtB case, though the remark that catastrophes will happen In the best regulated hotels, would seem to apply. In cultured Boston it may do to advise ad-vise schoolmasters to give their pupils a half hour's exercise once or twice a week in reading the daily newspapers, and even in Salt Lake City it may answer an-swer if the schoolmasters were discreet enough to choose The Times, but we shudder to think what the effects upon the morals of the impressible youth would be should they be compelled to listen to the billingsgate of our contemporaries. |
