TO WED HELEN GOULD,
An Actor the Lucky Man to Capture
the Girl With Ten Millions.


New York, Nov. LIT is reported, and
on the best of authority, that Harry
Woodruff, an actor, is to wed Helen
Gould. Woodruff is known in the pro-
fession as 1.-THE boy ingenue," and is now
playing in the "Charley's Aunt company,
at the Standard theatre, in New York
This will be Actor Woodruff's last season
on the stage, at least for some time He
has handed in his resignation to take eff
feet next Saturday night, and upon his
retirement will go to Yale college to study
law, preliminary to espousing Miss Gould
I in wedlock
The courtship Of Woodruff and Miss
Gould has been going on for long time,
and George Gould, until lately, has been
bitterly opposed TO it. 1t is only recently
after leaving nc stone unturned to break
off the affair, that he has given his CON
sent, on condition that Woodruff retires
from the stage and takes two-years'
course at Yale.
George Gould has consented to pay all
his college expenses, and is said TO have
given the young man $4,000 to keep his
mouth closed about the matter until the
expiration of the two years of probation.
If at the end Of that time the young
couple are still in love Gould has agreed
| that they shall get married.
Woodruff, although he always acts the
parts of young boys and has earned for
himself the nickname of "the boy in
genue," is by no means as young as he
I looks. In fact, his next birthday will be
his Both
1t is said that when Mrs. George Gould,
nee Edith Kingdom, was playing at Dalys
theatre, eight years ago, Harry Wood
ruff was a member of the company.
After her marriage Mrs. Gould invited
Woodruff to her house. and it was then
that George Could opposed an engage
ment, but Helen possessed a will of her
own and informed him that she liked
Woodruff and would see as much Of him
as she liked.
One day last winter, matters came to a
climax at concert at Carnegie hall.
George Gould entered the box, found
Woodruff there and told him to get out.
Helen Gould exclaimed, George If he
goes, go too; understand that distinct
ly" Woodruff was permitted to sit out
the performance.
One of Woodruff's letters TO Miss Gould
was intercepted. George Gould started
with it for Inspector Byrnes Office. An
hour later young Woodruff was brought
to police headquarters in a cab The in
spector and George Gould held long .pri-
vate conversation, from which Woodruff
emerged victorious.
He made plain and STRAIGHTFORWARD
statement He declared that Helen
Gould loved him, and, as there was moth
ing against his character beyond the fact
that he was an actor, he had no inten-
ton of giving her up. Miss Gould is
worth, financially speaking, Sl0,000,000.

( HITS NOT FORTHCOMING.
That Is why the Port1ands Didn't Beat

The Lewistons defeated the Portlands
In finely played game yesterday, both
Stevens and Mains pitching mastery ball.
If the Portlands had batted little bit
they would have won, but the hits were
not forthcoming when needed.
The Portlands made two runs in the
first on Slaters base on balls, Burns's
single, and Connaughton's wild throw.
Smith flied out to centre, and Mains
brought both men home with fine
three-bagger.
The fun occurred in the ninth in
ming, when the Portlands needed one to
tie. They got that run by clear. sheer
luck. Mahoney struck about twenty
fouls and then got his base on balls.
Moore flied out and Madden singled.
On Connaughton's error Mahoney scored
amid great cheering.
The Lewistons then went in for their
half, and won IN canter. After two
men were out Sheehan singled and went
clear around to third on Smiths tumble.
Leighton's single came in quite handy,
as it gave the Lewistons the winning
run. The score:

The A f the Arab.

Inc Affef. eAio <ArSDs
An Arab. a tent dweller,
for in an equine seAse the town dweller
il no Arab-loves first and above all his
horse. No need to recite the oft sung
affection he will lavish upon him. Next
he loves his frearm. This, POLITICALLY
speaking, ought to be a six foot, gold in
laid, muzzle loading horror of match
lock, which would kick any man but an
Arab fiat ON his back at every shot, but
actually, in Algeria or Tunis, when he
lives near city, it is rather more apt to
be modern English breechloader. You
must fly from the busy haunts of men to
find the matchbox.
Next to his gun he loves his oldestson,
Last comes his wife or one Of his wives.
Daughters don't even count. Imean the
Arab scarcely takes the trouble to count
them, unless in SO far as they can minis
ter to his comfort, dietetic or otherwise.
Until some neighbor comes along and
proposes to marfy--in other words, to
make still worse slave of one of them,
she is only chattel, a soulless thing,
And yet she is said to be pretty, amia-
able, helpful being--said to be, for no
one by any hap ever chances to cast his
eyes on one worth seeing. This disregard
for women, be it said to their honor, does
not always apply to the Bedouins of the
Syrian and Arabian deserts.-Colonel 7.
