Mrs. Mary A. Gooden, for many
years prominent figure in the charl-
table work of the city and one of the
most active members of the Associated
Charities, died very suddenly during
Saturday night, or the early hours Of
yesterday morning, in her bed at her
home, 285 Summit place. There was no
warning at all of her sudden end, as
before retiring Saturday night she
seemed to be in her usual good health
and laughed and talked with other
members Of the family. AS she re-
manned in bed longer, however. than
was usual for her Sunday morning,
her sister, Miss Ellen McCarron, went
to arouse her. thinking she had mere
ly oversight. Sad, indeed, was her sur
prise and severe her shock to find her
sister cold in death. Mrs. Gooden,
whose husband died a number of years
ago, is survived by her sister and
two brothers. County Commissioners

sudden death, and investigation show

cause.

ment for savings. We all know
that the guarantee Of the govern
ment would be practically back Of the
savings banks. If it takes the money
Of the people and invests 1t In state or
city bonds, there will be an irresistible
and just demand that it should make
the sum good if those bonds should at
any future time be repudiated or de-
preciate below their face value. The
scheme thus virtually involves the
United States as guarantor Of states
or counties or cities, and on that point
Is thoroughly inadmissible. The pos
tai savings bank plan will be pushed
with energy and not improbably, with
success. We can but regret that, with
this prospect open, it should not be used
In the right way, to settle for all time
the question of the disposition Of the
greenback. The proposition now be-
fore congress, as far as it contemplates
investment in securities other than
government bonds, ought not to re-
ceive a moments consideration. The
general scheme of establishing postal
savings banks is unquestionably popu-
lar with the people, but the problem Of
safe and proper investment for the
money has not yet been worked out.
