Cruger
The Cruger family, as the name
shows, dates back to the time of the
Crusades, Cruger was originally Cru
ciges, and was the Medieval Latin
word for cross-bearer, from the words
"crux," a cross, and '-'gere," carry.
From Cruciger ,the name became
Creuziger and Creutzinger, and final
ly Cruger, and , in Germany and Hol
land, Kruger.
. The name ..was first given to a
knight in one of the Crusades, at the
end of the eleventh century, and
from him the family spread through
out Germany, Holland, Denmark and
England. One Casper Crucigar, a
German, helped Luther translate the
Bible in 1532. In 1190 Sir Philip de
Crucuger went with Richard I. of
England on the third crusade to
Palestine. Sir Philip Is supposed to
have descended from the German
baronial house of Von Cruger or Kru
ger, and from him the line is unbro
ken down to John Cruger, the
founder of the American family.
About 1700 this .lohn Cruger, an
Englishman of good education, ap
pearance and standing, came to New
York. He went into business and
also into politics; in 1712 he was made
alderman, and for 22 consecutive
years he held this office. Five years
after giving it up, in , 1739, he was
made mayor, and continued in this
capacity until his death in 1744. He
is spoken of as a man of tact and dis
cretion. In those days it was very
difficult for a mayor to keep peace
between the people on the one side,
who were jealous of their rights, and
the governor on the ether, who was
Ives
Ives, Ivie, Ivys, Ivins, Ivison, St.
Ives, and also Eve, Eves, Eaves, Eve
son and Evans are names supposed to
be derived from the town of St. Ives,
England. This town was thus called
in honor of St. Ive, a Persian mission
ary of early days.
Drayton, in a pc.em, thus gives the
story :
From Persia, led by zeal, St. Ive this
island sought.
And near our eastern fens, a fit place,
finding taught
The faith; which place from him alone
the name derives.
And of. that sainted man has since been
called St. Ives.
A person living at St. Ives might be
"of Ives," or "de Ives" or "dTves,"
which was finally shortened to Ives or
Ive. The Norman form of the name
was lvo. Other near relatives of the
names Ives are Ison, Ivett and Ivatts.
An old Hebrew form of Eve, It may be
mentioned, was Havah, which was an
other name for Eve of the Bible. Eve
means, as we are told, the mother
of all.
It is not impossible, however, to ac
count for all these names by referring
them back to Ivan, meaning John.
The family has its history all along
the ages, and Its romance. There was
the famous antiquarian, John Ives,
who was also the "Suffolk herald ex
traordinary." He was born in Great
Yarmouth, 1751, and "the son of an
opulent merchant." Some of his man
uscripts are in the British museum.
But this is of but trifling importance
compared with the romance which
adorns the pages of Its history. For
he eloped. What wouldn't anyone give
for an eloping great-great-grandfather?
This grandfather and Sarah, daughter
of Wade Kett of Lopham, eloped. It
was midsummer, the "silly season;"
each was young and foolish and
didn't know any better.
William Ives of London came over
in the Truelove, 1C33. He was a free
man and one of ' the proprietors of
New Haven, where he died, 1C48. His
name is oue of the number found in
the civil compact dated June 4, 1C33.
One of his sons was Joseph, whose
son Samuel was a Maine colonist. Wil
liam's (the pilgrim) widow married
William Bassett. Another immigrant
was Miles Ives, who was also from
England. He wa3 first at Watertown,
Mass., and afterward at Boston. His
wife was Sarah and they had a large
family. Others of the Ives family of
those days were John, at New Haven,
16C9, and Joseph, a proprietor of New
liauiphir.

jealous of the king's rights. But
Cruger seems to have accomplished
this task.
In 1702 he married Maria, daughter
of Hendrick Cuyler of Albany. They
had five daughters, Anna, Maria, Sa
rah, another Maria, for the first died
of smallpox, and Rachel; and three
sons, Tileman, Henry and John.
Althoiigh John left no descendants,
he is by far the most interesting of
his generation. He showed unusual
ability even as a child. From 1754
to 1755 he was alderman and from
1756 to 1765 he was mayor. He was
the first speaker and president of the
first colonial assembly, and he was a
member of that body for 17 years,
from 1759 to 1775. He wrote the fa
mous "Declaration of Rights and
Grievances" adopted by the Stamp
Act congress in 1765, the first notable
piece of political writing in our his
tory, and said to be the model on
which Jefferson based the Declaration
of Independence. He also started the
movement which led to the establish
ment, 176S, of the New York cftamber
of commerce, modeled on the English
board of trade, and the first mercan
tile society established in America.
He died in 1791.
The most interesting member of the
next generation is also the one who
left no heirs. His name was John
Harris Cruger, and he married Anne,
daughter of Brig. Gen. Oliver De Lan
cey of New York and the British
army. When war was threatened De
Lancey raised a brigade, called "De
Lancey's battalions," for the "defense
of Long island and other exigencies;"
and he commissioned his son-in-law,
who was strongly in sympathy with
his mother, country, lieutenant colo
nel. Cruger's military record was
brilliant. Among other things he com
manded Fort Ninety-Six in South
Carolina when it was attacked, and
he forced the American general, Na
thaniel Greene, to raise the siege.
After the war he went to England,
and died there.
The late Stephen Van Rensselaer
Cruger vas brevetted for gallantry
in the Civil war. He was in Europe
when hostilities broke out, but he hur
ried home and went to the front. He
was terribly wounded at Resaca, and
was honorably discharged. As soon
as his wounds were healed he begged
to be reinstated, and was with Sher
man on his march to the sea.

Family
Wallingford, Conn., was another
home of the Ives. John Ives married
Mary and had eight children,
of whom one was Gideon, born 1G80.
He is called Ensign. His wife was
Mary Royce and their family num
bered a dozen minus one. One son
was Joel, which was a favorite name
for a few generations.
The Ives have fighting blood and in
every war were always to the fore.
Some of the most important photo
graphic devices are the invention of
IYZS
Frederick Eugene Ives, born in Litch
field. Conn., 1856. An artist of the
family is Halsey Ives, knight of the
Order of Danebrog, and also a knight
of the Order of Vasa, decorations be
stowed by Christian IX., 1891, and by
the king of Sweden, 1895.
The coat of arms reproduced is:
"Argent, three torteaux, between two
bends, gules." The torteaux, or roun
dels, of heraldry symbolize manchets
or communion wafers. This coat-
armor, judging from the charge, is an
ancient one and probably was be
stowed upon a crusader knight.
Moftrs' heads and goats are the
charges of other Ives arms. The Ives
of Northampton, England, had goats
as their heraldic charge.
Burke's "Peerage" blazons two
coats of arms for the Eve family and
they, too, must be very ancient. One
is "quarterly, sable and or."
The other is "barry of ten, argent
and purpure." In the beginning of
things, coat-armor was little more
than one charge upon the shield.
Rcpanling the second coat, the
metal argent (silver), signifies peace,
sincerity, purity and innocence; pur
pure (purple), royal majesty, sorer
ciittj and iuatits.
COST OF FEEDING CHICKENS
Interesting Experiments Made by Ore
gon Station Larger Breeds Eat
More Than Smaller.
How much does it really cost to
feed a laying hen a year? To this
question there will be many answers.
Some will say one thing, some an
other, but how about the facts?
In experiments made by the Oregon
experiment station, covering several
years, in which every ounce of food
was weighed, six pens of Leghorn
hens consumed during the year 564
pounds of wheat, 296 pounds of corn,
203 pounds of oats, 112 pounds of
bran and shorts and 235 pounds of
skim milk, in addition to some animal
food. The cost of the total food per
fowl for the year varied In different
pens from 61 to 78 cents, and aver
aged 66 cents.
The wheat was charged at 1 cent
a pound, corn at 14, oats at 1 cent,
skim milk at 1-5 of a cent and bran
and shorts at 3-5 of a cent. The ani
mal food cost from 5 to 6 cents per
fowl. The wheat constituted nearly
a half of the total cost. The hens laid
an average of 144 eggs per fowl, val
ued at $1.68, at local prices for eggs.
The prices were from 10 cents to 25
cents per dozen. If wheat had been
worth, . say, 90 cents, and had been
charged for at that rate, and bran at
1 cent a pound, the cost per fowl
would have been about 16 cents more,
or 80 cents Instead of 66 cents.
On the basis of prices when the ex
periment was made, food costing 80
cents when fed to hens produces eggs
worth $2.58. This is a pretty good
margin of profit in feeding 90-cent
wheat. It may be said that the aver
age flock of- hens does not lay 144
eggs per fowl. That is true. It is
also true that 144 eggs per fowl is not
phenomenal. The right kind of hens
properly attended should average 150
and well-bred hens considerably more.
Prize-Winning Cochins.
The average farm flock will not aver
age 125, probably not 100.
In these experiments all the food
eaten was paid for at market prices
and the cost averaged only 66 cents
per hen. The cost would have been
only 80 cents if the wheat had cost 90
cents per bushel. The farmer, how
ever, who keeps fifty or a hundred
hens, can do better than that, for on
the average farm that number of hens
may be kept largely on the waste
products of by-products of the farm.
They will find the animal food In the
fields in the shape of bugs, grasshop
pers, worms, etc., and there will
usually be skim-milk or buttermilk.
There need therefore be no cost for
animal food, resulting in a saving of
8 to 10 cents per fowl. The clover or
grass they eat will have little market"
able value. The destruction of grass
hoppers in the clover and grain fields
and of bugs in the orchard T ill,
where these insects are bad, offset a
large part of the annual cost of food
for the fowls in better crops.
In experiments with larger breeds
the cost of feeding was greater. The
cost of feeding Cochins and Plymouth
Rocks averaged $1.15 per fowl and of
Wyandottes $1. This extra cost, how
ever, is largely offset when the fowls
are marketed, the larger breeds bring
ing more than the smaller breeds.
Save the Pumpkins.
Every pumpkin should be saved. The
ducks and geese eat these readily and
they make splendid feed for tiding1
over the winter months. If you in
tend raising ducks for profit the com
ing year remember there is nothing"
more detrimental to success with
these fowls than careless housing
right now. Cold or damp quarters will
have a tendency to cause them to
wait later in the spring to begin lay
ing, which means a poorer chance to
raise them profitably. Keep the floor
of their quarters deep in straw and
securely sheltered from cold winds.
Keep the HensScratchlng.
By keeping. the hens busy scratch
ing among the littcr.ior trying to ob
tain a portion of their food from cab
bage just within IhctT reach; by fur
nishing them with nj varied diet of
grains, vegetables, mf.at and lime; by
gilvng them sun nndFydust baths; by
disinfecting the 'houW's and keeping

WOULD BE OF MORE VALUE
Father O'Leary's Facetious Rejoinder
. to John Phllpot Ciirran an Ex- ,
ample of Real Wit.
One day the famous John Phllpot
Curran, who was. also very partial to
the said corned mutton, did me the
honor to meet him. To enjoy the so
ciety of such men was an intellectual
treat. They were great friends and
seemed to have a mutual respect for
each other's talent, and, as it may
easily be Imagined, O'Leary versus
Curran was no bad match.
One day after dinner Curran said to
him: "Reverend father, I wish you
were St. Peter."
"And why-, counselor, would you wish
that I were St. Peter?" asked
O'Leary.
"Because, reverend father, in that
case," said Curran, "you would have
the keys to heaven, and you could let
me In."
"By my honor and conscience, coun
selor," replied the divine, "it would be
better for you that I had the keys of
the other place, then I could let you
out." '
Curran enjoyed the joke, which he
admitted had a good deal of justice in
it From Kelly's Remenlscences.
On Authority of Teacher.
A quick-witted boy, asking food at
a farmhouse too recently ravaged by
other hungry fishing truants, was told
that he was big enough to wait until
he got home.
"Of course, if you have children
with' you " hesitated the kindly wom
an of the house, and was immediately
informed that there were six children
la the party.
"No, I don't tell a fib, neither." was
the indignant protest later drawn
forth by -the condemnation of one who
ha4 shared the good bread and butter
thus secured. "Fib nothin'. We're
children six times over. We're chil
dren of our father and mother, chil
dren of God, children of our country,
children of the church an' children of
grace. Teacher said so last Thursday,
and I guess she ought to know."
Strong Preaching.
The minister's eight-year-old daugh
ter was returning with her parents
from church, where the district super
intendent had that morning occupied
the pulpit.
"Oh, father," asked the little girl,
her face alive with enthusiasm. "Don't
you think Brother C. is a very strong
preacher? I do."
Gratified by this evidence of un
usual intelligence on the part of his
offspring, the minister eagerly in
quired into her reasons for her state
ment. "Oh," replied the little miss, art
lessly, "didn't you see how the dust
rose when he stamped his feet?"
Judge.
With a Sour Laugh.
A Chicago editor has brought from
London an amusing story about Hum
phry Ward.
" 'Humphry Ward," he said, was in
his bachelor days, a really well-known
art critic. But now!
"I met Humphry Ward at a dinner
in Soho, and he said to me, with a
sour laugh:
'"When a girl wants to retire from
the world and be lost in oblivion, she
has to enter a nunnery. But a man,
to achieve the same end, need only
marry a famous woman.' "
First Dose Cured.
Permanent relief: "My daughter
contracted chills in 1877. No prescrip
tion ever gave more than temporary
relief, no tonic kept them off. Two
bottles of Hughes' Tonic cured her
completely. She had no chill after
taking the first dose." Sold by Drug-gists--50c.
