GOULD MANSION REOPENED.

Society Watching Miss Helen

Society Watching Miss Helen
New York. Jan. 17.-Miss Helen Gould
has come to the city, it is true, but
whether society will be greatly a gain
er in the way of Entertainments re-
mains to be seen.
MissGould herself disclaims the inten-
ton of doing anything startling in this
way, and pleads housewifely reasons
only for her advent into the big Fifth
avenue house for a stay of perhaps two
months.
OF course. every good housekeeper
knows that when a dwelling has been
practically closed for five years or more
both it and the furnishings must be
badly in need Of a good airing, sun
bath, and general massage. And in
consideration of Miss GOuld's practical
turn of mind. this homely sentiment
has some value.
At any rate. if the heiress is contem-
plating a social campaign she certainly
keeps her plans strictly to herself.
Neither the Count nor the Countess
Castellane will visit Miss Gould this
winter. There are now two babies in
their household, the younger of whom
is only a little over two weeks old, and
for this reason the countess Will not
cross the ocean for some time to come.
Another consideration winch III
measure would indicate that Miss
Gould is not contemplating uncOndi-
tional surrender to the claims of So
ciety is that no arrangements have yet
been made by her to include chaperon
in her winter menage, although she
has two maternal aunts in the city.
One of these ladies is living in the
Navarro apartment house, and the
other, whose home is in Germantown.

A brother of the late Mrs. Gould. and
who is unmarried, lives also at the Ma
varro. in an apartment adjoining that
of his sister.

HIS RACE FOR GOLD.
George Draham Ran Thirty-five

Tacoma, Wash, Jan. 17.-With the

In a press interview, Senator Davis
reiterates some Of the unanswerable
arguments he has used on the floor
of the Senate in advocacy Of the Ha-
waiian annexation treaty. One of his
points is particularly worthy Of atten-
ton. He says that if We refuse to
take the Hawaiian islands when they
are offered 10 u.s. we shall not be in
any position TO say that nobody else
shall have them. Neither consistency.

Of Europe will permit us to occupy any

the value which Hawaii possesses for
