Widow
Of Gould
Shuns Kin
BY MAURY PAUL

NEW YORK jan 81
caught a glimpse of Mrs. Edwin
Gould the other evening, look
ing handsomer than ever and
dressed in her favorite black.
Today Mrs. Edwin Gould is
the only member of the once
fabulouSly wealthy family who
still possesses what is inelegantly
known as real money" She is
the richest of all the Mrs.
Goulds and decidedly the most
exclusive.
All of which probably has
caused her late sister-in-law,
Mrs. George J. Gould, to turn in
her last resting place.
For during her lifetime Edith
kingdom Gould declined to take
the social claims of Edwin
Gould,s wife seriously And
there's no question about it.
Mrs. George J. Gould eclipsed
Mrs. Edwin Gould in the mat
ter of riches, social position,
jewels. etc.
Unlike her departed Sister-in-
law. who thTived on publicity,
Mrs. Edwin Gould prefers TO
be overlooked by the press.
Out on "Longuyland," where
she settled several years ago,
after spending many many
years at ArdSley-on-H Hudson. she
has adopted a conservative atti-
tude.
And the north shori,es are
duly impressed,
So much so Mrs. Edwin Gould
now dimes in houses in which
Goulds. in general, have been
taboo for several generations
There is little entente cordiale
between Mrs. Edwin Gould and
f1CT various Gould relatives
and she, l hear. administers the
large fortune left her by Mr..
Gould without consulting other
members of the family.
RECENTLY THE South
American husband OF an helreSS
10 a small slice of one of Ameri-
cas- famous fortunes, became
possessed of desire to Join
New York's ultra-eXclusive
Union Club.
So he managed TO get one of
his wifes cousins and an elderly
Newport widower with young
ideaSD to propose and second
him for membership in the
Swanky Park avenue organiza-
ton.
No sooner was the applicant :
name put on the list than there
were loud protests from men,
hers.
And when the mans name
came before the membership
committee there were so many
black balls cast il looked almost
like a TIN of caviar
To avoid embarrassment the
ambitious mans name was re-
moved from the applicants for
membership list.

early age, though most of item

them when they were ten or elev-

$500 MONTANA
MEN In SERVICE,
.RRELY STATES

More than $500 Montana men now
are serving in the nations armed
forces. most of them in the regular
army. state selectiye service headquar-
ters reported.
A summary compiled by the head
quarters shows that up to the Aug. 10
induction, 1894 men have been inducted
into the army, while 3,475 are serving
under enlistment. There are 1913 men
in the national guard, LAO IN the
navy 316 in the marine corps and %
in the coast guard. In war time the
coast guard viii become part Of the
navy, while the others are maintained
as regular armed forces at all times
Col. E. H Birely, state director of
selective service, said that only 1877 men
have been rejected at induction CEN
-ters since the first men were drafted
last fall about percent of the total
indicted. He said that this indicates
not only excellent general health of
Montana's young men but also the good
work done by doctors serving the local
draft boards.
Colonel Birely praised the work Of
county draft boards, saying that mem
bers have given freely of their time
to attend meetings, many of them COM
ing from long distances during busy
seasons to attend sessions. To them,
he said, goes much of the credit for
giving Montana one of the lowest re-
lection percentages in the entire corps
area.
He also said that appeal agents had
"done fine job" in adjusting cases
of draftees who had felt their induc-
ton would impose a burden on the
or was not in the interest
of defense needs.
, Colonel Birely explained that the sta
tistics released indicate why some
have had larger numbers of
than others, as previous en-
listments in other armed service reduce
the number of selectees required from
any given county to fill quotas Be-
cause of this provision, some counties
with large enlistments in national
guard, army and navy, in particular,
have had small inductions.

1906 Italians Held
At Fort MiSSOuLG

Seventy-two more interned italian
seamen joined nearly thousand COM
panions at Fort Missoula last week,
immigration officials said.
The 70 men, they said, were brought
to Montana from the Atlantic coast
and raised the internment camps pop
ulation to 1865.
Sixty prefabricated barracks to house
the interned men were said to be COM
pleted, and 16 others were near COM
pletion. The fort, niclnamed bella
Vista" by the Italians, formally was
transferred to the immigration serv-
ice, ending the last active army post
in Montana.
The internment camp orchestra,
composed largely Of musicians from
an interned luxury liner, was to give
its first public concert soon. A col
lection was to be taken up for the
interned men.

road, that fact was passed along by
grapevine"
Seek Way Out
In the summer of 1865 Parker and
McCausland, representing two Virginia
City merchants, and Mers and Oman
of Nevada City. were to travel to St
Joseph, Mo, with some 100000 In gold
dust.
For more than week they had pub
licly discussed plans at variance with
their actual intentions with view
to fooling road agent spies who might
be watching them. There was one
weakness to this ruse: 1t had become
a general practice to appear to do one
thing and then do another to clear
the route of bandits. The ruse had
worn pretty thin, and the road agents
Immediately watched more intensely to
catch the real plans Of prospective
travellers.
Parker, NcCausland, Mers and Oman
believed they had successfully fooled
the road agents spies. They set out
with their treasure cased in buckskin
bags concealed about their persons and
under the rear seat Of the coach. Port
Neuf canyon, they agreed was the big
danger spot. Could they but pass there,
their journey would be safe.
Near the Snake river bridge two
more passengers entered the stage.
They were Carpenter and Brown.
Before entering the canyon early In
the afternoon all had looked to the
condition of their weapons as routine
precaution, and had settled down to
general conversation. 1t was bright,
pleasant day, and as the canyon miles
rolled off the spirits Of the party rose
high.
The growing sense Of security COL
lapsed at Parkers call to fire on the
robbers. The blast that killed Parker
was followed by others that brought
death to McCausland, Mers and Oman.
Carpenter was seriously wounded ana
saved his life by feigning death as a
bandit was ready to drill him again.
Brown escaped into the brush. Charley
Parks, the express messenger, was shot
in the leg, and had to submit to its
amputation at the thigh.
Large rewards were offered by the
stagecoach company for arrest Of the
bandits and recovery Of the treasure.
Members of the Montana Vigilante
organization took up the trail. For
some time there was no clue and 1t
looked like another unSolved crime OF
the frontier was TO be recorded.
Frank williams, the stage driver,
soon afterward quit his job and became
a hanger-on around Salt Lake City
saloons. His expenditures were such
that he drew the suspicion Of men
working on the Port Neuf canyon
crime. williams was watched closely
until it was established that he could
not have secured so much money by
Montana oil and mining journal. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1931-1953, 1941-09-13

honest means. He disappeared from
Salt Lake City.
Hanged Near Denver
williams was traced eastward along
the Overland route and was arrested
at Godfrey's station between JuleSburg
and Denver. Conscience stricken, he
confessed driving the coach into am
bush in Port Neuf canyon for rob-
berry in which he benefited. 1t had not
occurred to him that murder would
be committed. He had not known q
moments peace since. He implicated
IL other men, giving their names and
last-known locations. Williams was
summarily hanged near Denver. His
information led to the execution Of a
few others, but most of those imph-
Gated never paid the penalty-for that
crime, at least.
Continued robberieS In Port Neuf
CANYON, none involving murder, how
ever, led to the employment of John
x. Beidler and John Fetherstun, both
members of the Montana Vigilantes,
as guards for the protection Of pas
sengers and treasure IN transit. Both
were hardened, fearless frontiersmen
and honest. Robberies Of stages on the
Montana-Salt Lake line grew few IN
the years before the oregon Short Line
railroad was built.
N. P. Langford, early Montana his
torian, probably travelled more stage
coach miles than any other one indi-
vidual not a driver or guard on the
coaches. In eighteen years as national
bank examiner and collector of in
ternal revenue in the mountain terri
tories and the Pacific coast states he
covered around $4,000 miles In the
coaches. He made As trips to and from
Montana through Port Neuf canyon.
Late in the last century he wrote:
1.-THE only stagecoacn station in the
canyon was known by the very ap-
propriate name of Robbers Roost' and
I never passed the place without a
feeling of mingled sadness and horror
at the recollection of the tragedy
which has given it such a bloody no
toriety."

SCIENTIST FINDS
WITCHES CRATER

Discovery of a huge crater in south
western Colorado has revived the story
of a night nearly so years ago when
the sky reared and burned with witch
es' fire, the earth shook and animals
howled in terror.
The story-which almost had been
forgotten-has been making the rounds
of old-timers in the San Luis valley
for nearly half a century and Dr. H.
II. Nininger, curator of meteors at the
Colorado Museum Of Natural History,
believes he has the answer.
From his preliminary investigation
ne believes the odd formation is a
rneteorite crater-fourth discovered in
the United States and first in Colorado
The crater which may mark the
earthly resting place Of huge meteor
is roughly 300 feet in diameter and
80 feet deep. 1t is heavily overgrown
with scrub sage and Spanish bayonet
and is in a remote section at the
western base of the Sangre de Christie
mountains.
Old-timers are bit vague about the
exact date but they remember seeing
weird flashes of light in the sky. Live
stock and animals were terror stricken
as the sky roared and the ground
shook.
Scientists at the time presumed it
was a meteor but the location was so
remote no one was able to find the
crater.
A few weeks ago, however, word
passed through the hills that "a funny
looking hill' had been found.
DR.. Nininger, an outstanding author
ity on meteors, was notified and had
a pilot fly him to the remote sector.
1--WE could make it out clearly from
the air so we took our bearings and
landed" he said.
he and the pilot made their way to
the crater by automobile and horse
back.
It Is a roughly eliptical depression,
completely surrounded by an upheaval
rim about 20 feet high. The hole bears
every characteristic Of meteoric crater
and there is no possibility it is Of vol
canic origin or is what is commonly
known as a "sink" caused by sub
terranean caveins or washouts.
The next step in checking viii be
with magnetic instruments. If these
