openly in the chamber of deputies, and
at the end Of the year, when he came
to the United States to get more
money, he was charged with fleeing
from creditors.
The countess came with him, bring,
ing her two sons, the only solace she
had, and they had an argument on
the ship-neither of them knowing
the American flag when they saw it.
Millions to Save Name.
In 1900 financial troubles were at
climax. Castellane had openly slurred
the Goulds, especially Helen Gould.
His family openly charged that Anna
Gould was "bourgeoise." Boni was as
reckless as ever Petit Trianon was
incomplete. Boni came to America
again to get money and failed. Tho
countess chateau at Dumarais was
ordered sold for debt and only an az.
peal to her family saved it. Trades
men openly insulted the Castellanes
and dunned them in public. George
and Edwin Gould gave 100000 to
save the family pride. Boni had spent
$3,000,000, besides his wifes income.
and owed over 100000.
In 1901 the courts took a hand to
save the fortune of the little Ameri-
can. A receiver was appointed in the
person Of her brother George. The
family paid $4,700.0 900 of Boni's debts
and held the countess fortune 20 pro-
tect her and themselves BY order of
the court the income of the Castel-
lanes was reduced from 100000 to
100000, but they fought in court and
got the entire income.
In that year Boni fought Henri do
Roday and shot him in the leg. Also
he gave boar hunt that cost $100, 900
for the Grand Duke Boris. He enter
tanned the king of Portugal.
Early in 1903, when Jay, the young
est baby, was few months old, the
countess suddenly left the count. , It
was reported that they were es-
tranged, but Boni came to America
and denied this report. Also he was
charged with refusing to pay debts Of
honor
Debts were piling up again and the
Goulds were stubborn, refusing to
hand out more millions to be thrown
away j
With her three children to comfort
her and keep her busy, the countess
did not care. But in 1904 the real
trouble began, the trouble that changed
the countess and made her "a woman
and mother, instead of the reckless
follower of a more reckless husband.

have preyed off him for years, is be-
heved by their friends and by coun.
sci in the case. If the Goulds remain
firm, Count Boni will ask the court to
forbid the mother to take her children
beyond the jurisdiction of the French
courts. He will plead that if the chill
dren are given into the custody of the
mother they may be taken beyond the
reach of the courts, and if the court
upholds his contention, as the law
yers believe it will, the count may
win.
The children for whom the countess
may pay $1,666,666 each are:
Boni de Castellane, aged ten years.
George Gould de Castellane, aged
nine.
Jay de Castellane, aged four years
and six months.
Perhaps every mother in the world
has said she would not take million
dollars for her baby, and now the
American girl who became the best
known, if not the most famous, noble
woman in Europe through the lavish
misuse of money, has the opportunity
of buying her children at price little
in excess of what she paid, only a few
years ago, for bed.
If the final payment of $5,O00,00O is
made, Anna Gould will have paid ST.
6S9.19 day for her husband and her
title-and her children-which even
now she may lose.

Children May Prefer Father.

The attitude of the children them
selves toward the warning parents is
rather inclined toward the father.
They are more French than American,
having been raised in France and in
such luxury and extravaganza that
they scarcely know the meaning of
money, the thing that has caused all
or almost all-the woes of the
American girl who allied her millions
to a doubtful French title.
Their loyalty to their mother is un-
doubted, but between America and
France they choose France, because
the older ones have been trained in
French schools, and, deeper than that,
because they have been reared in the
religion of their father. If the choice
lies with them it will be France and
the Roman Catholic church on one
side, and the love of their mother
and money-on the other The coun-
toss herself has become almost
French.

been painted by the most famous art
lists of France, and as baby his beau
ty attracted attention everywhere.
The physical perfection of the chill
dren is marveled at by sociologists
because the mother is understood, sal
low and irregular of feature, while the
father is small, effeminate, and yet
handsome in his way. He might be
called pretty rather than handsome
