The announcement that Frank Jay tiould would spend this coming summer sum-mer ju America and would transfer his racing stable to our shores from France seemed improbable to all his friends. J could not reconcile this change of attitude on Mr. Gould's part at all. i.ou will remember that .Frank Gould sailed irom America about the time that an enterprising New York newspaper news-paper printed batches of his ardent love letters to Bessie Da Voie, the music hall singer. At that time Mr. Gould vowed That he would renounce his American citizenship and hecomc a legal resident of ! ranee, us his sister, the Duchess de rallj-vnnd. now is. But Mr. Gould's tortune is so entangled with rude and uncouth American affairs that it maybe may-be tnnt his presence here is necessary. Another Swell Wedding. There nre those who insist that tho wedding of Miss Mathilde Townsend a?d,.,Ve.t5r Goe,f Gerry, vounger son of Llbndge T.

Miss Townsend is the prettiest of the heiresses heir-esses of the capital. This marriage, like I he Drcxel-Clonld wedding, seems to confirm a new fashion for American hcircssep. an indicating that the impecunious im-pecunious titled foreign forluno-hunt-crs have been rebuffed. The bridal gifts, will probably be oosilv. jlr. Gcrrv has very many relatives in the millionaire set. Miss Townsend also is connected with, a number of the rich r hilndclphia families and has mnnv friends hero and also abroad. Richest Lad in America, Master ,1ohn Nicholas.
