MASON.

  Mrs. Jacob Lusch, wife of the proprietor of the Crystal hotel on Green 
avenue, has returned from Brooklyn, where she attended the funeral of her 
nephew, Charles R. Mason, aged 23, of that place, who was killed on board 
ship, when the ship on which he was journeying to France was struck by a 
torpedo on Oct. 3.  Mason enlisted in June, immediately following the death of 
his mother and was on his way to France as a dispatch rider.  He sailed from 
an Atlantic port on Sept. 22.  He is survived by one brother, Coburn Mason, in 
the service of the United States army.  The following relatives also survive 
and they were at the funeral: his grandfather, C. L. Arnold, of Brooklyn and 
the following aunts and uncles: Mrs. Jacob Lusch of this city, Mrs. Jennie 
Lauterborn of New York city, John Arnold and C. L. Arnold of Harnell, N.Y., 
Mrs. W. C. Webster and Louis Arnold of Youngstown, O.  The young man was given 
a full military funeral.
