army regulation which makes it a very

discovery, which he considers the
browning event of his wonderful
career, and which is embodied in a
new article of commerce, known as
Red Cross Starch (Red Cross trade
mark.) He is planning to distribute
millions of packages Of this starch to
the housewives of America, at merely
nominal price to the consumer, in order
10 make it's merits known without de-
lay. Thus, for but cents two large
1oc packages Of Red Cross Starch may
be had, together with two magnificent
Shakespearean views printed in IL
beautiful colors, or a Twentieth Cen
fury Girl Calendar; or for only 20
cents 10 packages of the starch and
the entire series of eight Shakespearean
views and one Twentieth Century Girl
Calendar-views alone easily worth
si.Oo. Watch this paper for future
premium announcements, Of which
every lady will certainly want to take
advantage.
While Mr.. Hubinger will devote his
best energies to the manufacture OF
this new and wonderful starch, he will
not retire from the various financial
enterprises in which he is interested

Co., with 10000 telephone subscribers

his augmented activity interfere with
his social obligations and exercise of
the splendid hospitality which he dis
oenses at his palatial Keokuk home.
Mr.. Hubinger's family, consisting of
himself, wife and four children, is the
pivot around which his activity re-
wolves, and while fond Of promoting
great enterprises, he is still fonder OF
his home circle, where he spends every
moment of time not taken up by bust
ness or public cares.

ETHICS FOR TYPEWRITER GIRLS.
Religious Journal Holds Right for Her
to Helm Her EmnloyerL Lie.

Religions Journal Holds Right for Her
to Help Her Employer. Lie.
The New York Christian Advocate,
the Eastern organ of the Methodist
Episcopal church, has created sensa-
ton in religious circles here by advice
it recently gave to an inquirer. Sup
pose," wrote the applicant for lnforma-
ton, "that a young woman employed
as a stenographer has to write what
she knows to be fat contradictions Of
truth, what she knows is meant to de-
ceive and the object Of the deception is
to take pecuniary advantage Of others.
Also that sometimes profane language
and language Of questionable character
on other moral grounds Is dictated,
should she write it or modestly decline
to do 500"
To this query the Advocate makes an
gWer:
1--WE know an instance Of young
woman who declined to write profane
language and lost her situation in con-
sequence. We highly approve her
course. She may be machine in q
certain sense, but If she processes to
be Christian or modest woman she
ought not to write anything which no
one having any respect for Christianity
or modesty would utter in the presence
Of a modest woman. But on the ques-
ton Of fiat contradictions of truth In
the way Of business statements, 1t Is
quite possible that stenographer may
be altogether too sensitive. How does
she know what view her employer may
take Of what seems to be fat contra
diction Of truth? Is he to explain to
known to her all elements involved in
every transaction In which profit and
loss are concerned. With regard to his
business dealings she Is but machine,
and her ears are not polluted by state
ments of fact or otherwise. Her mind
should be sufficiently under control not
to reason about anything that he die
tates, except to direct his attention to
verbal or other mistakes In compost
ton. But no stenographer, male or fe-
male, should write things, which, pass
ing through their ears into their minds,
and to the machine through their fin
gers, could not but def1le. The stenog-
rapher need not make an issue. If a
man happens to use profane language
let her furnish the copy without the
profane language. Then If an issue is
made it will be by the mans insisting
upon II, and il he does insist upon 1t she
will do well to take her departure, trust
ing in the Power that maketh forright-
eousness.'"

DEATH OF A VANDERBILT.

Head Of the Family, Corneliuss Passes
Away Suddenly.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, multi-millionaire,
the head of the Vanderbilt family, died
Tuesday morning at his home in New
York. Vanderbilt had been i'll for many
months.
Mr.. Vanderbilt was suddenly taken
worse at midnight Monday night, three
hours after he had returned from New
port. Physicians were hastily summon
ed. but the patient grew gradually worse,
despite their efforts. The end came
shortly before o'clock in the morning.
The only members Of the family pres
emit were Mrs. Vanderbilt, Reginald, Mr..
Vanderbilts youngest son, and Gladys,
the youngest daughter. Alfred, the fav-
orite son, recently left for tour Of the
world. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., the eld-
est son, whose marriage to Miss Jennie
Wilson two years ago displeased his faith
er, was not at the dying mans bedside.
Cornelius Vanderbilt was the eldest son
of the late William 81. Vanderbilt and
grandson Of Cornelius COMMODORE Van
derbilt. He was born on his fathers

occur on Monday, Oct. 2, although the date
will depend upon the length Of the celebra-
ton in New YORK, which Is still unsettled.
The principal features Of the reception in
Washington, as planned by the citizens,
with the cooperation Of the President and
Cabinet, will be two in number-the presen-
tation Of the sword voted by Congress and
a night parade. A public reception at the
White House will be followed by dinner to
the Admiral by President Mckinley. The
sword will be presented by Secretary Long,
at the east front Of the Capitol, in the
presence of Mr. Mckinley and all the mem
bers Of the Cabinet, late in the afternoon,
while the parade, consisting Of organiza-
lions Of all kinds, will be accompanied by
an illumination of the city on a scale Of
beauty never before witnessed in Wash
ington.
The different features of tn. prepare
lions are in the hands Of a central body
of citizens and eleven committees en-
bracing in all over a thousand people.
Preparations for the celebration have
been in hand for over month.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and
other railroads entering Washington have
agreed upon cheap rates for the celebra-
ton, and the committee expects that there
will be an outpouring Of patriotic citizens
almost equal to the Inauguration Of
President.
