JOHN C. HUBINGER.
Remarkable Career of q Wen-Known
Western Capitalist, Manufac.-
uFer and dPhilanthr0pist.

Among the leaders of the progressive
element for which the midle west is
famous, Mr.. John C. Hubinger, of Keo-
kuk. Ia, reigns without peer. As
a manufacturer, as an enterprising cap
italist and as a philanthropist his fame
has spread over many states, and his
financial enterprises have developed
many obscure towns into progressive,
thrifty and wide-awake cities. Mr..
Hubinger, although but AZ years OF
age, can look back upon scores of COM
mercial victories, each one of which has
benefited mankind, for his liberality is
as bountiful as his business sagacity is
marvellous. He was born in New Or
leans, La, his parents being of French
and German origin. When he was four
years old, his family removed to Ken
tucky, in which state young Hubinger
received public school education. Al
most before reaching mans estate he
secured patents on number of val
liable mechanical inventions, thereby
laying the foundation of his present
fortune.
BY inclination and force of circum-
stances his attention was early direct
ed to the manufacture of starch by i'm
proved processes, and in the course of
time he became the head of concern
having an annual business of millions
of dollars. But genuine ambition
never quite satisfied with existing con-
ditions, works ever toward perfection.
and after years of painstaS;ng study
and research Mr.. Hubinger has made O

discovery, which he considers the
crowning event of his wonderful
career, and which is embodied in
new article of commerce, known as
Red Cross Starch (Red Cross trads
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
to make its merits known without de-
lay. Thus, for but cents two large
10c packages of Red Cross Starch may,
be had, together with two magnificent
Shakespearean views printed in IL
beautiful colors, or a Twentieth Cen
tury 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
$1.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
street railways, electric lighting plants
and the Mississippi Valley Telephone
Co., with 10000 telephone subscribers
in Minneapolis and ST. Paul-nor will
his augmented activity interfere with
his social obligations and exercise of
the splendid hospitality which he dis
penses 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 lot taken up by busi-
ness or public cares.

the officers and men at cost price, Gen.
Weston says there is no possibility of
loss to the government upon them.
The commissary department does not
purchase wines except for the hospi-
tails. These are bought upon the rec
ommendation of the surgeons and the
money for them comes out of the 40

the hospital.

Lieut.. Gilmore and Ia of His Men. who
Were Taken Prisoners Six Months
Ago, Earing Badly.

Washington, Sept. 17.-News con-
cerning Lieut.. Gilmore and II of the
enlisted men of the gun boat Yorktown.
who were captured by the Filipinos at
Baler more than six months ago, has
reached Washington in letters to mill
tary officers from their fellows in the
Philippines. The latest information
comes through a Spanish planter by
the name of Cara, who was i'm
prisoned by the insurgents and subse-
quently made his escape. He said
that the men were at Bigan,
where they were subsisting on
a meager quantity of rice. valued
at not more than one peseta per man
per day. The allowance, however was
more liberal than that for the Spanish
prisoners, every one of whom was allotted
one-half peseta per day. There were
fully 1000 of the latter at Bigan, Cara
says, and all prisoners, Spanish and
American, showed signs of giving way
under the rigorous confinement and
the poor and insufficient food. He is
quoted as saying that the captives
could not stand such hardship and
such fare much longer.

Birthdays,

Few of us are happy to have our
birthdays come quite as often as they
do. For. whether we acknowledge the
fact or not, we none of us want to grow
old. It is good to be young, and while
we are not ashamed of our age. we feel
that each year brings us nearer that
point when we shall be no longer
young. And we do not want to be
laid aside, to be put out of the bright.
happy, active life. So we do not well
come our birthdays. But, since they
must come, we like other people to re-
member them pleasantly. and the
whole day is gladdened by congratu-
latory letter or by little present
which shows that some one is glad we
were born. and hopes that We will live
many, many years yet. And because
these little remembrances do give hap
piness we should try to pay especial
heed to the birthdays of others. 1t
takes only few minutes to write the
loving lines that our friend will re-
ceive at his breakfast table on his
birthday morning. But these few lines
may turn the current of his thoughts
into a happy direction and make him
forget that he is growing old in the rec
election that he is loved.-Harper's
Bazaar.

CHAPTER xvIII.-CoyrrNurp.

Mr. lynn was not for halting, and led
as boldly 10 the main gate. The pos
tern. as l might say here. was the
more obscure and the guard smaller,
but it was the farther removed, and
again we must pass the wings of the
castle, where men were frequently
lodging in and out. Finally, this gate
gave upon the edge of the plateau, be-
low which was the bold. exposed beach.
The main gate, on the other hand, let
as at once upon a considerable street,
and this was crossed by other streets
and was darkened in many places by
trees. Mr.. lynn thus proved his wis
dom by preferring the chief gate. and,
in brief, all went well, for we passed
safely out. was now for thinking the
danger as good as over. and drew
great breath of relief, and spoke a
word of cheer to the senorita. Mr..
lynn, however, looked pretty sharply
back, and without stopping set ius
quicker pace and drew on to the turn
of the first alley. glanced down the
street, seeing no cause for apprehen-
sion, and thence fetched look out
upon the dusky, yet starlit bay, and
still conceived that our troubles were
nigh over. This alley would take us by
"a quiet way to the water. whence it
ought to be an easy matter to reach
the jetty and so the boat.

contained so little wealth, we were in

They Sent Her Back to Kansas.

is said to be an heiress, came here from
Abilene, KAN, to live with her aunt.
Miss Marshall is engaged to one of
Uncle Sans boys in Manila, but her
cousin. George Cooper, fell in love with
her. The folks here would not allow her
to write to the soldier or to send west
for money. The inexperienced girl
made two attempts to end her life.
BY this means the facts were made
public and a writ of habeas corpus was
issued for the purpose of restoring her
to her friends. Money was contrib
uted by the citizens to pay her expenses
back to Kansas and she returned yes.

after that / awoke.
The boat was travelling on after the
former sort. 1t was a bit darker
around. for the stars appeared to have
dimmed, wherefore guessed that the
moon was at hand, and the breeze
seemed a thought stronger. Come to

over the helm to him, and this showed

feet and softly joined Mac Ivrach.
1t was nigh seven of the clock before
the senorita appeared. She had slept
some, it seemed, though brokenly, and
was many times awake. She looked a
little worn, which was not surprising,
seeing what she had been through, but
was in moderately good spirits, and
this was even better than had feared,
having in mind her state the night be-
fore. We made room for her aft, and
Mac Ivrach threw off his coat and be-
stirred himself to prepare breakfast.
This consisted of slab of cold boiled
beef, some rye bread, a roasted capon,
and little bag of grapes. For drink
we had wine and pannikin of hot
spiced ale very good and grateful to
our stomachs), which Mac Ivrach
cleverly prepared by unscrewing the
top of lanthorn, and so making a
kind of furnace, over which he heat

The morning continued to advance,

in the situation. After a time Dona
Carmen retired to her cabin Il sus-
pected that the poor soul had now
come to the full thought of her state
and of her loss, for her countenance
had greatly fallen), and the rest of
us dropped into listless sort of dis
course. The sun got higher, beating
down fiercely and making an almost
intolerable glare upon the water. and
in this wise it drew on to noon. At a
little past eight bells we had dinner.

Big Legal Fight Begins.

st. Joseph, Mo-, Sept. 19.-Townsend
& Wyatt, owners of large department
store here, applied to Judge Woodson
for writ to compel the city officials
to accept the usual sum for the con-
duct of their business. The officials
had declined to renew the license unless
$500 for each department was paid, as
provided under the new law. Much
interest is manifested in the case. 1t
will be pushed rapidly through to the
supreme court. st. Louis and Kansas
City will be affected by the result, as
this is the first test of the law.

Why She Missed Him.

poor woman who kept small shop
in an English village and who was
troubled with husband who could
scarcely be considered a credit to the
family one day found herself widow
through the sudden demise of her
spouse. A lady who frequently made
small purchases at the shop called to
see her and to offer her sympathy.
though well knowing that the mans
death must in certain sense come as
a relief. as the wife had often suffered
from his violence. She was not, how-
ever, quite prepared for the stoical
way in which the wife took her be-
reavement. Said thelady: .Iam sure,

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 17.-Fire which

in the North block, occupied entirely
by printing firms, and spread so rapid
ly through the building that it was
soon apparent that the structure with
all its contents would be total loss.
From there it spread to the Masonic
temple, Methodist church and Webster
block, which were also totally de-
stroyed. Several small buildings were
also burned.
The North building. three-story
brick, was occupied by Jacob North,
book and job printer, whose loss on

Independent Printing company, whose
plants were entirely destroyed.

brick with high tower. Besides the
Masonic lodges, which lose everything,
this building contained the city public
library of 10000 volumes, the Wood
ruff Printing company and the Even
ing Post, the losses being practically
total and amounting to $50, 600.
st. Paul's Methodist church, one of
the most beautiful in the city, was to-
tally destroyed, entailing a loss of $685.

valued at $4,000; value of contents not
yet learned. The Elite studios loss is
placed at $500 and that of the small
er buildings and contents of others
not listed above will bring the total
up to $500, 900.
From the very first the fremen
seemed absolutely unable to do any,
thing to check the flames and save any
of the property in the block. For a
time it appeared as though Herpols-
heimer's big department store would
go, but by hard work it was finally
saved.
