MASTER BARRIERS OPPOSE.
Do Not Favor Passage of Bill to Disn-
 feet Shaving Implments

Do Not Favor Passage. of Bill to Disin-
 feet Shaving Impliments.
 The committee on public health and safety was engaged yesterday after noon at Hartford in the consideration of the bill providing for the disin- lection of implements and appliances used in barber shops. The propoSers of the bill were not present but sev- eral boss" barberS were and they were strenuous in their opposition to the measure.
 J. George March of Hartford said that the bill itself was the height of folly. It could by To possibility apply to anything used in a barber shop eX cept the towels and no bill could regr- late the cleanliness of those. He did consideration.
 David Seitle. recording secretary of the Master Barbers' association of Hartford. opposed not only the passage of the bill under consideration but also of the bill creating commission to have charge of barbers and barber shops. He said that it would be ridiculous to require barbers to pass examinations in surgery. medicine and hygiene. How many barbers were competent to pass any such eXamina JlOu lHeN NOltlu u0Ne to Dc Shilleu and trained surgeons to do so. Mir Seide held that any legislation looking to the sanitation of barber shops, first class barber shops, would be unneces- sary. If the bill would apply to the low grade shops it might be good thing In well conducted shops the razors and other implements and ap- pliances are kept ill the best sanitary condition MT Seide said that physi- sians assured him of the attention paid to proper sanitation in the barber shops.
 MT March reiterated his statement that there was nothing in the bill worthy of consideration and that it might as well be thrown into the waste paper basket.
 Ira Collins of Hartford said that he was familiar with the trade in the low and in the high.grade shops. and that the classes of trade in the two varieties would not mingle. If the low grade shops are driven out of the business by such measure. as was under consideration their trade would be driven to the high grade shops to the detriment of the customers of the high grade shops.
 The committee will give another hearing on the bill on Tuesday after noon, March 19. when those who favor It's adoption will be given an oppor- tunity to be heard.

 Chicago, March 8.-A branch organ ization to be known as the Shipmas- ters' Protective association was formed in Chicago yesterday to affiliate with the Marine Engineers and Boilermak- CTS. who are now striking in South Chicaga, Buffalo and several other lake ports.

Breaks Thursday.

Yesterday was red letter day at Camp
Steuart. The mothers. fathers, sisters,
cousins and aunts of the boys, not to
mention hosts OF friends, visited the camp
and the boys greatly enjoyed the oc-
casion. Some OF the cholristers of larger
growth, notably Messrs. Watson and
Chapley, spent the day at the camp and
dined with the boys. There were twenty.
came later in the evening.
The camp is we'll arranged. The
younger boys occupy one OF the sleeping
tents, and the older boys another. The
supply tent is filled with good things to
eat, and these are in charge OF Professor
Willing. The boys dine at long table
erected under shade trees. The kitchen
is some little distance away Here. under
canvas cover is "Ieally, truly" cook
stove, and a colored "auntie cooks the
most delicious biscuits, short cake and
makes pies from the blackberries the
boys gather. And such appetitcs as the
boys have. They devour (that's the
word) everything in sight.
A huge pan of hot biscuits for break
fast melts away like snow in the noon
upon the tent. The boys are fond OF
rice, and boiled rice is always the second
course for breakfast on the daily menu.
Yesterdays visitors did not 60 to the
camp empty handed. They took plenty
of provisions for the boys. Six cakes
were among the donations from the boys
mothers. Mr.. Robert Strange took
down two large baskets of delicious can
teloupes. Mr.. Joseph Trautwein took

OF the boys received individual boxes

A Sustaining Diet.

These are the enervating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by the
sunstroke, as il the Day OF Fire had
dawned. They are fraught with danger
to people whose systems are poorly sus-
tanned; and this leads us to say, in the
interest of the less robust OF our readers.
that the full effect of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is such as to suggest the propriety Of call
ing this medicine something besides a
blood purifier and tonic,-say, a sustain
ing diet. 1t makes it much easier to bear
the heat, assures refreshing sleep, and
will without any doubt avert much sick
ness at this time of year.
