That new impetus has been given the
fashionable fad of marrying title has
clearly been shown by recent events. Miss
Anna Gould is now French countess, and
Miss Mary Letter, the far-famed Chicago
beauty, will soon become the wife of the
Hon. G. Curzon, M. p, prospective heir to
the title of Lord Scarsdale. Miss Letters
father is millionaire several times over,
and it is not improbable that as the Hon.
Mrs. Curzon Miss Letter will take with her
to England something like three millions
of good American dollars. Anna Gould's
fortune is estimated to be fifteen millions.
These facts bring UP the question with
startling emphasis-How much money have
titled American girls taken away with them
to foreign shores? laboriously compiled
list of all the marriages of American women
to titled men for the past thirty-fiVe years
shows that at least two hundred millions
have gone away from these shores in the
period Eighty per cent of this is repre-
sented in the marriages of the past six
years. This shows how the habit is grow
ing. The appended list is the first time
that anything Of the kind has been printed
and 1t has been carefully verified. 1t speaks
