DEATH TAKES.
ROMAN TICIST'
McC utcheonss Demise Marks

Of His Type

New York, Oct. 24.-(R-The

creator Of the fictional kingdom Of

McCutcheon, who dropped dead at
q luncheon Of the Dutch Treat club
At the Hotel Martinique yesterday,
disdained the school Of realists who
came into prominence in recent
years, and remained true to the ro-
mantle type Of fiction upon which
he built his fame.
Born in Indiana In 1865, he At
tended Purdue university with his
brother John, the cartoonist, Booth
darlington and George AIDE, and
there laid the literary foundation
upon which he built his Balkan
castles.
After . few years in newspaper
work at Lafayette, Ind, Mr..
McCutcheon planned and wrote
"Graustark," which he sold to Stone
& Kimball, Chicago publishers, for
$500. That was in 1901. It had q
phenomenal sale from the start.
Other Graustark books followed,
including his best seller, Beverly
Of Graustark." Then in 1908 came
"Brewster's Millions" whose book
and stage royalties lifted Mr.. Nc
Cutcheon to the top rank Of wealthy
authors.
He is survived by his widow, who
is i'll here, two brothers, = stepson,
and sister.
His body is to be taken to Lafay-
cite, Ind, for burial in the family
plot there Friday.
