Burlington Hawk-Eye: TO have or
not to shave ON Sunday, that is the
question which is agitating Daven-
port at the present time. 1t is claim
ed, and has been sustained by jury
of prominent business men, that shay
ing is sanitary necessity, and that
therefore the barber shops cannot or
should not be closed on Sunday. the
Davenport BARRIERS might follow the
example of the druggists in some OF
the Iowa towns. One druggist, being
a sanitary necessity, keeps his store
open on Sunday afternoon, all the
others closing. The next Sunday an
other remains open, the others closing
their doors, and so on through the
list, when No. / keeps, open again.
This plan works out to eyerybodys
satisfaction and it has never been
necessary to go into the courts about
it.

worth the powder to blow it up. That
all it is good for is to give to the
sucker that comes along and has the
nerve to ask for it. That the editor
doesn't have any bills to pay, so he
can give away his newspaper space
with a clear conscience. But this
isn't true. The bills that come
streaming into our sanctum are
enough to make fellow dizzy some
times. And if we didn't sell our adj
vertising space for little more than

SUBMARINE SINKS;
 27 MEN DROWN.
Struck by FerrybOat, PIuyolse { Goes Down.

A French submarine boat, the Plu- viose, sank to the bottom of the ocean near Calais, France. on May 26, and the twenty-seven men aboard the ill fated vessel perished.
 The ferryboat Pas de Calais, crowd ed with passengers bound for Dover, had just left Calais when one of her sidewheels experienced violent shock. The captain, believing that his boat had struck a submerged buoy, stopped his vessel, and moment later the hull of the submarine Pluviose came to the surface a short distance astern.
 A boat was hurriedly launched from the ferryboat and went alongside of the stricken craft, but the sailors rap- ped in vain against her metal sides. and in few minutes the submarine sank again beneath the waters.
 The passengers aboard the Pas de Calais were horror stricken by the drama enacted before their eyes. The ferryboat, which was making water rapidly, summoned two tugs to the scene of the disaster and then put back to the French shore.
 The Pluviose left Calais thirty min- S1tes before the time 1t is presumed she came up under the paddle wheels of the Pas de Calais, though it is impossi- bIe to conceive that she would dive in such crowded waters.
 Advices received by the minister of marine confirm the report of the prob able loss of the ill fated submarines entire crew. The maritime prefect of Calais in reporting his action to the marine minister of sending boats to the scene offers the opinion that the raphtha reservoirs of the Pluviose burst.
 X torpedo boat destroyer has been anchored near where the Pluviose sank, and divers have gone down to the submarine. A wrecking vessel has also gone to the scene.

MISS HARRIMAIl
 WEDDED AT ARDEN.

Miss Mary Hartman, the eldest daughter of the late E. H. Hartman, was married in St. Johns Protestant Episcopal church at Arden, N. Y., to Charles Gary Rumsey of Buffalo. Only the members of the two families and a few close friends witnessed the cere- mony.
 The plans for the wedding were kept so secret, both on account of the deep mourning of the Hartman family and the natural dislike of Mrs. Hartman and her daughter to anything like so- cial display, that the exact hour of the ceremony was only known to the few guests who were there. It was known. however, that the ceremony would be performed by the Rev. J. Holmes Me Ginness of Chester, the rector of the
