Plain American.
 New York, Sept 27,-7The. Countess von Roden Kohsel, who obtained all absolute divorce from the count in Da- lxota last week and then married Oscar B. Stillman, sugar broker of this city, arrived here yesterday and is staying at the Hotel Manhattan. This morn ing she and her latest husband-he is her third, although she is only 30 years |old-wiH sail for Porto Rico, where Stillman owns extensive plantations, on a honeymoon trip.
 Mrs Stillman was Bertha Moore, the only daughter of J. Owen Moore. well known owner of trotting horses. In 1895 she was married to John A. Goldsmith, the son of Alden Gold smith, who bred the famous trotting horse, Goldsmith Maid. Five months after the wedding MT Goldsmith died, leaving his widow a considerable for tune, including Walnut Grove farm, Il handsome estate near Newburgh, N. Y., and two fine pieces of property in Mexico.
 Mrs Goldsmith and her parents lived in the summer at Walnut Grove farm, and in the winter at the Hotel Empire U Y1S97, Mrs Goldsmith met at the Hotel Empire the Count Conrad von Roden Kohsel, who had come here from Ger that makes printing ink. The pair were married after few weeks ac- Quaintance, and went to live at the leountess's farm.
 Mir Moore said yesterday that sthe 1ry hn.f hot as soon as he got married he gave up his job and refused to work.
 '.The count couldn't see the use of a man with a rich wife doing anything for a living,p said MT Moore yester- day. ''He just laid down on us and loafed. For three years my daughter supported him, and all he did was to give champagne dinners to his friends with her money. Every winter we went to my daughters place in the City of Mexico and he went with us. Finally last winter I kicked. The count was spending all of my daugh- ter's income and was figuring on bit ing into the principal. I talked it over with my daughter and with MT Stillman, who is a very old friend of ours, and MT Stillman said to me: See here, if Bertha will get a divorce from this fellow I'll marry her myself
 Well, Bertha was tired of her count too. so while he was hanging around Mexico Bertha and slipped away ore day and came to New York. He couldn't come with us because he did not have the ear fare. and told my wife. who was left behind, not to ad- vance 1t to him under any circlm- stances.
 Bertha went to Dakota and later on went down and told the count that she was getting a divorce from him. Say, that cuss tried to get even by not allowing me to sell my daughters property in Mexico. He took advan- 1 tage of the law which doesn't allow a woman to sell anything she has with out the consent of her husband. In I order to sell one piece of property I had to divide what I got for it witll him. He wanted to do the same thing on the sale of Berthas big ranch, but I blocked him there leased it to a friend of mine, and now that the di- Yorce has been granted we will sell it without the count having anything to say about it.
 'sThe count is still down In Mexico My wife died down there last winter Bertha got her divorce from the count Hast week and was immediately mar ried to MT Stillman. They are very happy and on their return from Porto Rico will live at the Stratford, 1070 1 Madison avenue.
 Say! I guess the count will have to go to work noW," and MT Moore chuhckled merrily.
