MARRIAGES OF THE GoULDs.
Persistency of the Boys in Seeking
 Beautiful Actresses.
From the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald
 of the six children of Jay Gould Howard ia the fourth one to marry. George, his eio- est son. was married on September IA, lSSo, to Miss Edith Kingdom, an actress m Da- Tvs company She is a daughter or Charles n Kingdom, of Brooklyn, who died several vaars ago, The story of their romantic courtship is well known. The young ac- tress had won by her marked talent high place in her profession.
 Jay Gould at first was strenuously oppos- ed to the match. He clung tenaciously to his purpose to found family of social nrominence. Miss Kingdom, while coming of an estimable family, had no position In so-called exclusive New York society. The millionaire was at last won over, ana the marriage took place amid great splendor at the Gould residence, Lyndhurst, at IT, uington on the Hudson. The Rev. Wash ington Choate performed the ceremony. Miss Kingdom at the time of her marriage was about twenty-five years old. Edwin Gould, the second son of the mil- lionaire. was married to Miss Sarah Con- fine Shrady, step-daughter of Dr. George x shrady, on October 26, 1892. The cere- mony took place at Dr Shrady's residence, S East Sixty-sixth street, and with Jay Gould's full approval. The Rev. Robert Colyer performed the ceremony. Howard Gould was his brothers best man. Jay Gould presented superb pendant of dia- monds and pearls to the bride and the bridegroom's gift was necklace of dia- mond solitaires.
 Anna Gould youngest daughter of Jay Gould, was married on March 4. 1885, to Count Paul Ernest Boniface de Castellane in George Gould's house by Archbishop Corrigan. Helen Gould wa her sisters bridesmaid, and gave her as a wedding present heart-shaped brooch, in the cen- ter the world-famed Esterhazy diamond, and this surrounded by eleven others.
The age-herald., 1898-10-18


 Howard gave his sister a magnificent dia- mond cluster. The Marquis and Marquise de Castellane gave the bride pearl neck lace of stupendous value, and MT. and Mrs Edwin Goulds gift was a diamond tiara. Gems worth Q kings ransom were presented to the Countess de Castellane.
 The marriage of Miss Anna Gould was more brilliant than that of any other of the Gould children. It was thought that her marriage to the count would perhaps se- cure for the family the position in society that Jay Gould had so earnestly coveted for them.
 Anna Gould at the time of her marriage was twenty-five years old.
 Miss Helen Gould and Frank, the young est of the family are the only ones re- mainng unmarried Frank only attalned his majority last month. George Gould Is now thirty-four years old, Edwin thirty three and Helen about twenty-nine.
 It is considered somewhat remarkable that the Gould boys have so persistently sought beautiful actresses in marriage
 A few years ago when Howard Gould ana Odette Tyler were reported engaged ana then family opposition was alleged, the friends of the young man reiterated that the great success and happiness following George Gould's marriage to Miss Kingdom were unanswerable reasons why Howard should not be opposed in his proposed union with Miss Tyler.
 Rut the matter was not adjusted satls- factorily to the pretty young southerner. Her family of proud ancestral history in Georgia claimed blood and social honors second to none in the land, and certainly equal to that of any New York millionaire.
 Tn the end. when it was seen that the pro posed marriage would not bring peace to the two families. Miss Tyler and her fiance agreed to separate as friends The terms of the so-called Arrangement were never made public but it was said to be entireiy satisfactory to all concerned ana the reli 4io,, ended in mutual good will and good wishes. Both are now married and happy.
