Anna Gould's Grand Tiara.

WHeu MISS Anna COulQ becomes
countess next Monday she will be
crowned with tiara of brilliants more
splendid than that owned by any Of the
New York society women who have
affected coronetS with their evening
costumes whiting the last few seasons.
1t is to fasten her vail of old lace,
which is gift from the Marquis de
Castellane, who will larrive in New
York tomorrow bearing with her many
handsome and costly presents from the
counts family.
A friend of the Gould family said
yesterday that the tiara has been or
dered especially for Miss Anna by
George Gould, and that Tiffany is the
maker. 1t is to cost a fabulous sum
and will be Of gold and platinum, set
with emeralds, pearls, diamonds and
rubies. The gems are set in platinum.
the base of the crown only being OF
gold. 1t will be one of the gifts from
the Gould family and probably the
mast costly which the young couple
will receive.
Miss Gould's trousseau, which is be-
ing completed at a fashionable mo-
diste's in this city, contains many ex-
quisite and costly costumes and cloaks
and dainty lingerie, but the larger
part of the bridal outfit has been pur-
chased in Paris. The wedding frock is
Of white satin trimmed simply in lace
and punches OF lilies of the valley,
which flowers will also form the bo-
quet.

vitations have just been issued to Mr..
and Mrs. George J. Gould to the wed
ding at their home, No. 81 Fifth ave-
nue.. Archbishop Corrigan is to SOL
emnize the ceremony. Miss Anna
Gould, who is subject to a gamut of
starers that used to confront Mrs.
Cleveland in the zenith of her popular
ity, has been living quietly at the Hotel
Plaza for a week or so.
The bridesmaids will carry bouquets
and will wear ruby monogram pins,
souvenirs from the bride. Miss Kittie
Cameron, daughter of Sir Roderick
Cameron, and the other three will be
attired alike. Their gowns are quite
simple and made ntirely OF white
broadcloth- The skirts are tremend-
ously wide and fiaring and have no
trimming whatever upon them but a
band of sable on the edge. The waists
are in blouse effect, with the inevitable
bouffant sleeves. On the collar is a
band OF sable, and this is ali. The
picture" hats are the most curious
feature for a home wedding. They are
black and big and made OF chiffon.

the senior of her sister, is much more
womanly and developed in her charac-

Gould household when her mother died.
Miss Beatrice Richardson, the third
bridesmaid, is daughter of - Frank
Richardson, for many years on the stan
Of the Kansas City Star. Miss Richard
