Howard Gould has filed his amend
ed answer to the complaint OF hls
wife, Katherine Clemmons Gould,
who Is asking for final separation
and allmony.
Mrs. Gould made answer through
her counsel, Clarence j. Shearn. This
answer is so detailed as to over
shadow every former feature OF the
case, setting forth in exact Items
the expenses considered absolutely
necessary by New York society
woman.
Mrs. Gould estimates bare living
expenses, outside OF travelling ex-
penscs or necessary contributions to
charity at more than $4,000 a
year. She declares that although
she had had In charge the dis
bursement OF about $4,000 year
for the last ten years, she Is now
In debt, her wardrobe held for a
hotel bill, and her jewels held 10
secure money for their repair. She
suggests that the 100000 yearly
allowed the Countess dc CRstellane,
now the Princess de Sagan, by the
French court Is reasonable.
Sho shows that her household OK
ponsss frequently for years at time
have exceeded $4,000 month out
side OF all payments for fixed charges
Of employees and that at the same
time the expenses OF the barn and
stable were about $4,000 a year ex-
ira. Among the striking statements
in her answer appear the following:
at costs as much 10 furnish the
table for one person as " does for
two, and 1t costs more In proper
ton for one person TO live than II
does for two.
II have been accustomed TO horses

their separation, Sl09,3OS.4O in ad-
ditlon to the S2,5O7 monthly allow
ance, which, he says, she has receiv-

that he is 30 poor that he has been
unable to put either OF his two

Links Of white Enamel Are Studded
a. Intervals with sapphires.


From the New York Press. 4.
Many stunning effects are seen in
the new long chains composed en-
tireIy ot'links OF white enamel stud
ded at intervals with sapphires and
finished by tiny watch carried out
IN like design. These white en-
Amel chains are OF the most deli
cate workmanship. and are among
tho newest fancies in jewelry,
Those who like magnlfIcence aud
color In rings will appreciate the
circlets that are made OF five rows
of gems. The first row may be Of
diamonds, followed by sapphires,
rubies. emeralds and completed again
by diamonds. Such rings as these
appeal TO the lover of somewhat bar
barrie splendor and are certainly ex-
ahlples OF the magnificent in the jew
eler,s art.
Beautiful designs in bridge and
chatslaine purses are among the
most striking novelties in the au-
tump jewelry. A bridge purse, for
instance, composed OF fine gold
chatnwork, has rim OF mercury
wings studded In pearls and dia-
monde, A smaller but still more
costly purse consists OF glittering
network OF scintillating diamonds,
ending in one large pearl drop,
while the rim is Of gold studded with
fine emeralds, This is an exquisite
example OF artistic jewelry and the
fortunate recipient OF such bridge
purse Is likely to arouse much en-
Wy on the part OF her less fortunate
friends Chatelaine purses and bags
are carried out in platinum in shades
Of dull green and gold, arranged in
stripes and checks. Many of them
are studded in alternate lines OF dia-
mOnds and rubieS and all are OF the
most costly and beautiful order. A
striking example OF magniflcencs in
these chatelaine bags is composed
Of platinum and gold upon which is
wrought a large swallow with body
Of diamonds. outstretched wings OF
rubies and a pearl and diamond drop
in it's mouth.

at least four, or five gentlemen in
attendance at one, time all with
their respective establishments. SO
that without outside society, the
Duchess of the Abruzzi will live in
little word all her own, over which
she will reign as absolute sovereign.
When she travels. trains, officials, all
che world viii be at her disposal;
when she receives, society will tum-
BILE over each other to be present
1t is easier. to say what Her Roy
al Hishness will NOT be able to do
than to enumerate her privileges.
For example, she, ardent .horsewom-
an that she is, never will be able to
run 10 the stables, choose her steed
OF the moment and be off for lone
~ gsllop. Instead the princess must
state her will to ride to gentleman
Of her household, who will transmit
Her Royal Highness' orders to an
other gentleman, who in turn will
pass them on until they eventually
arrive at the ears OF the head
groom, who begins like process in
mis- little kingdom. AT last a horse
is saddled and ready with groom in
attendance, to say nothing OF gen.
tleman of the household.
The new duchess will stand very
near the head OF the procession on
state occasions; that is, before the
world. First II they all, happen to
be present, will come the queen, fol-
lowed by the queen mother, then
the dowager Duchess of Aosta, the
Duchess of Aosta and then the Ouch
ess of the Abruzzi. But a general
gathering OF the clans is scarcely
ever possible Queen Margherita
and the Duchess OF Aosta, the lat

never appear, SO that the Ameri-
can duchess has a very fair chance
Of appearing on most occasions as
third in the royal procession.
