COUNT BONI DE CASTELLANE
Although Boni de Castellane was
well known in France previous to his
to Anna Gould, the American
heiress. in 1901, he did not become an
international topic OF news interest
until the facts OF his money-spending
proclivities became generally known
in 1912.
The marriage of Anna Gould was at
first heralded far and wide as an alli.
ance of importance. She was the pos.
SCISSOR of 100000 in her own name,
while De Castellane was the proud
scion of famous ancestors and had a
title-and numerous bad debts.
The wedding was one OF the most
brilliant affairs that has ever taken
place in France. II ranked in pomI
and ceremony with those OF royalty
and took place in the De Castellant
chateau. on the outskirts of Paris.
For n time the married life OF the
De Castellanes seemed TO be movinS

that Boni de Castellane In the eleven
years in which he had been married
to Anna Gould had spent almost her
entire fortune OF $9.O00.O 900.
He had entertained royalty and be-
come quite a pet on the bouleyards.
He had purchased a coach and
horses and hired an outrider formerly
employed by the president OF France.
The outfit had cost $4,000.
An antique clock that had caught
his eye had pleased him to such an
extent that he had parted with
$4,000 for its purchase. Next came
a set OF furniture for which the mere
sum OF $4,000 meant nothing. To
match the furniture he had to have
a mantelpiece, which added another
$4,000 to the financial casualty list.
But it was through the medium of
a simple taste for fruit that he came
a cropper. Cherries were his grand
passion" and those which he selected

terprising merchant for four dollars
apiece.
1t was this little item that an.
gered his wife. She told Boni in plain
language that she wouldn't play with
him any more. and then the war was
on.
Boni got highly indignant. The
Countess had received few more
millions from her fathers estate and
Boni could not understand why the
fact OF his getting rid of her former
fortune should annoy her in the least.
She, on the other hand, had different
ideas. She told Boni in good Ameri.
can language what she rated him at,
and from all accounts II was far be.
