GOULD LAVISHING
JEWELS IN HEAPS
ON A SHOW GIRL
Holding Out to the World as
Man and Wife, but Million
aire Is Hazy On
Subject.

Aix-les-B ains, France, Aug. 10.-En-
chained In diamonds emeralds and
pearl, Edith Kelly, the former Brook
lyn chorus girl, or, as she is known
here, Mrs. Frank Gould, is one of the
sights of AK this season. Mr.. and
Mrs. Gould, as they are registered at
the Hotel Splendid, are very much in
evidence. They dine almost every
evening on the terrace at the Casino,
and Mrs. Gould's gowns, hats and
jewels make her the cynosure of all
eyes. Her evident delight over the
attention she receives by no means ex-
ceeds that of Mr.. Gould, who watches
smilingly the glances cast upon her as
she parades the Casino by his side.
Her gowns are really marvellous.
The other night she wore white satin
and lace, cut decollete, and an enorm-
Gus dropping picture hat with white
plumes and black velvet. AS for her
jewels, AK never has seen their like.
Around her neck was wide dog collar
of pearls and diamonds. The pearls
were set in horizontal rows with large
star shaped settings OF diamonds glis-
tening between them. Below this was
strand Of large pearls, and still low
er, about the corsage, hung a wonder
full necklace of large emeralds en-
cabochon, surrounded by diamonds and
Joined by clasps OF diamonds as large
as the emeralds.
Necklace of Fabulous Value.
The necklace is Of fabulous value and
Is even more beautiful than the famous
one Of Cavalieris. 1t seemed, how
ever, too dowager like for so young a
woman. Her fingers and wrists spark
led with diamond and emerald rings
and bracelets.
For some reason Mr.. and Mrs. Gould
Stunned the Baccarat table-their IA
vorite diversion-last night. They had
"a guest at dinner, an elderly American,
and left the Casino with him. AS she
rose from the table Mrs. Gould put
on a long, loose coat of black satin,
having a large sailor collar of green
and blue Persian patterned charmeuse
satin.
1 asked Mr.. Gould about the report
that he and Miss Kelly had been mar
ried, and he smiled as he answered:
II really don't care to discuss the
matter There has been too much said
about 1t already"
she seems to be attracting a good
deal of attention tonight" said
friend"
"Does Look Stunning" Says He.
She does look stunning, doesn't
she," said Mr.. Gould, with evident
pleasure, as he saw dozens turn to look
at her.
TT is reported all over AK that you
today when I called 1 was told that
neither you nor Nine. Gould were in"
Yes, suppose people are curious"
said Mr.. Gould, calmly, but cannot
discuss the matter"
Married or not, 1t is a fact that Mr..
Gould has showered the former pen
sacola girl of Havana with a fortune
in Jewels. She is stouter than when
she danced at the Casino in New York
and seems to have grown older, but
she is as pretty as ever. "a 49,
Helen Kelly Gould never wore such
jewels as those" said New York
friend of Mr.. Gould's former wife, and
she raised her lorgnette to watch the
gorgeous young woman sweep past.
In Paris it is said that Mr. Gould's
chief ambition is to rival w. X. VAN
derbilt's racing stable. He has been
buying many winners and has his eye
on a number of famous jockeys, on
either side of the ocean. At Chateau
LATTE. Longchamps and other race
courses his horses have run many fine
races and have won him many purses.
