One mistake made by many peo-
pie who save little money is to
keep it locked up in a trunk or
some other place where it does not
earn any more money. All savings
should be invested in some sound
way to earn more money.
Another mistake made by many
people is that they save money
from a purely selfish or misery
standpoint. This is as bad as not
saving at all, if not worse.
The principal thing about saw
ing is that one always keeps out Of
the clutches of debt, which is a
curse, although it is wise some
times to go into debt to pay for
something that will be an asset
when it is paid for, like buying
bonds or preferred stock or real
estate, insurance, or to start bust
ness on ones own hook, etc.
An editorial in recent issue Of
the New York American, under
the heading, Nothing But
Money" commented on the abso-
lutte uselessness of the life of a
miser who landed in New York i'll.
When he said he had no funds he
was taken to a hospital, where he
later died.
After his death, the hospital at
tendants went through his clothes
and found in them $4,000 in Lib
erty Bonds; papers showing de-
posts Of 100000 in bank; $1,000
in cash, besides lot of jewelry
and deeds to various pieces of
real estate.
| mention this editorial in the
American because of one sentence,
as follows:
Real Riches Means Largeness of
Life as Against Meanness or Little
ness"
Now the miser who had all of
this wealth in his clothes is typical
of many people who have money,
but never use it to the advantage
of their country, their families or
friends.
l am not urging you to save
money in this way. If | thought
you would save merely to hoard
to keep money idle would tell
you to keep on spending it be-
cause money kept in circulation
does greater good; even if keep
ing it in circulation results to your
disadvantage, / would still say
spend it rather than save it in the
way this miser did.
All l am asking you to do is to
save little as you go along-in-
vest it-help industries-get q
good income from your savings
and be useful, thrifty, progressive
citizens.
Henry L. Doherty, head Of
Henry L. Doherty & Co., 60 Wall
Street, told me one night while |
was with him at his home on
Bridge Street, that there are thou
sands of people who hoard money,
refusing to deposit it in banks or
to invest it for fear that banks will
fail OF that their investments may
turn out badly.
He cited a case that is typical
among people who save something
who want to get along in the
world-but who do not use their
savings to the best advantage.
Mr.. Doherty had worked at his
home one night until after mid
night. Before going to bed, he
went out for walk around the
Battery Section of New York City.
At about one o'clock he dropped
into one of the open-all-night deli
catessen stores in this section of
the city. He knows the proprietor

A despatch from home Saturday said
that the excitement in the Chamber OF
Deputies over interpretations presented
by the Socialists concerning the recent
disorders in Lucca, in which Socialists
were beaten by Nationalists. had been
heightened by news that Bentini and
Ciccolai had been attacked by National
lists on their arrival at Bologna.

Mrs. Julia Cl.uger
Once Famous AS
Author, Dies Here
Grand Niece Of Washington
Irving Was known as
Mrs. Wharton of Her
Time; Was Prominent
in New York Society

Mrs. Julia Grinnell Cruger, widow
of Col s. Van Rensselaer, Cruger, died
yesterday at her home in this city.
The funeral, which will be private, will
be held tomorrow. Interment will
take place in the Washington Irving
plot in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, at
1rvington, N. Y.
Mrs. Cruger, who was a grand-niece
OF Washington Irving, was one of q
few society women of New York who
gained conspicuous and important
place in the world of literature. Thirty
years ago her name was on the tongue
OF everyone interested in literary mat
ters. She is referred to by those of
the present day who remember her
writings as tn Edith Wharton of her
time.
Mrs. Cruger was Miss Julie Grinnell
Storrcw, daughter of Thomas Went
worth Storrow, of Boston. Her mar
riage to Colonel Cruger, veteran of
the Civil War, gave her a prominent
place in New York society. Her hus-
band was director in numerous life
insurance and railroad companies, and
until the time of his death, in 1898,
was controller Of the vast real estate
interests of Trinity Parish.
Mrs. Cruger's first attempt at writ
ing was "a Diplomats Diary" written
under the name of cullen Gorden." The
attention attracted by this book was
muc Increased when it was learned that
Mrs. Cruger was the author. Following
this book, which appeared in the early
'sOs. "A Successful Man" was published.
While much of that work was conceded
to be purely the product of the writer's
imagination, it was generally supposed
that there were other parts founder
upon her husbands political and busi-
ness life.
"A Puritan Pagan" was published in
1890 and was followed by other novels
and essays, several of which ran in
serial form in the magazines. Some
Or these are Healthy Heroines,"
"Slovenly Americans" and "The Mod :
err Extinction of Genius" all of which
were widely read.
After the death of her husband Mrs.
Cruger abandoned, to a great degree.

Of her time abroad Ten years after
his death she was married, in her home
IN Washington, to Wade Chance, of
Canton, Ohio. She and her husband
established home at Queen Street,
London, England, where they lived for
several years. They were divorced in
1916. Mrs. .Cruger then took up her
home in Paris, where she remained un-

this city.

Mayors Bus Plan
Raises Question of
who'll Get Plum? p
Politicians Are Specializing
Over Scheme for Private
Lines; Old Corporations
Active; Hearing July FL

Mayor Hylan's proposal for the op-
Grafton Of bus lines by private cor
poratlon, under proper regulation by
the city authorities, has caused con-
siderable speculation in political circles
as to what person or persons will be
the recipient of so choice q plum. If
the project is approved by the Board
of Estimate, and it is likely that it will
be, the Mayor and his associates will
be in position to play favorites in an
enterprise OF unusual profit to some
body.
Several old corporations which got
franchises from the city to operate
bus lines in years past are understood
to be making attempts to ascertain
whether these old franchises have
lapsed because of years of inactivity
on the part of their holders Inquiries
in this regard have been made of the
Public Service Commission. One or
two companies are said to have OBJ
tanned perpetual franchises years ago,
although they were never particularly
active afterward in operating busses
Some of the old Tammany leaders
were interested in such companies, and
they are pricking up their ears now and
listening for a chance to reorganize
and go after the latest Hylan bonanza
The Mayor fixed July 81 for public
hearing on the matter at the City Hall
The opposition of Borough President
Curran and Aldermanic President La
Guardia, the two Republican members
of the board, will not be effective, as
they have but five votes between them
out of total of sixteen. They as
sumo, however, that an attempt will
be made to give the bus franchise to
friends of the administration, and will
insist upon placing as many safeguards
around the project as possible.
"All the minority can do," said Major
La Guardia yesterday, "is to insist
upon sufficient financial backing to
carry out the project; to endeavor to
limit the period of the franchise in
order not to create monopoly; to
safeguard the interests of the city by
providing five-cent fare with trans
fers, and to exert sufficient supervisory
powers to prevent manipulation such
as happened to traction companies in
the past"

Former Empress Eugene
To Be Buried in England
Her Death in Madrid Sunday
Was Preceded by Illness
of Only Few Hours

MADRID, July 12.-Former Empress
Eugene of France, who died here yes
terday morning, was i'll only few hours.
She was exceptionally we'll on Saturday
morning. At midday she lunched heart
lily, eating chicken and some ham.
A short time later she became i'll, ex-
periencing severe abdominal pain. Dr.
Grenda, physician to King Alfonso. was
called, and, finding her condition serious,
summoned DR.. Moreno Zancudo, a spe-
cialist, and also two other physicians.
They were, however, unable to relieve
the patient.
Empress Eugenie seemed conscious
that death was approaching, and those
who stood by the bedside say she ap-
peared glad to die in Spain, her native
country.
Saturday afternoon, when the condi-
ton of Eugenie became worse, all her
relatives still in Spain were notified.
The Duchess Santona, with her husband
arriver, and then the Duke of Pene-
rando. Dowager Duchess Tamames and
the Count and Countess Mora.
During the night the Empress lost
consciousness, but before doing so re-
ceived the last sacraments Of the Church
from clergyman. Eugene died shortly
before o'clock on Sunday morning,
never having regained consciousness.
The body was to be embalmed to-day
in preparation for its transportation to
England, where Eugene will be buried
at> ;Farnborough. The funeral party
probably will depart from Spain on
Wednesday.
King Alfonso, who is in London. has
sent dispatch to the Prime Minister
ordering a period of court mourning
of twenty-one days in honor of Eu-
genie, and also to pay the customary
royal honors to the dead.
Most of the members Of the aristoc-
racy and of the diplomatic corps filed
past the body, which is lying in state

of the AntiSaloon League, who had a
heated controversy with noted Catholic
prelates last winter, wrote an open
letter yesterday to Archbishop Hayes
inquiring whether the attitude of the
Roman Catholic Church ain this vicin-

which declared it would oppose any
candidate for public office ''who is in
dorsed by the ANTI Saloon League or
who indorses the league"

treat and will not be back at his labors
until Saturday. 1t was the belief of

reply to Mr.. Anderson.
