Gould Makes Fourth for x Either Separation or Complete Divorce in Which Children of the Great American Ruler of Rail- roads Have Been Involved—History of Other Cases Follows. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall ay HERE are two kinds of marriages: the Goulds’ and other peo- ple’s. ‘Thus observed an American epigramatist, and the newest news, the second divorce of Frank J. Gould, but con-; firms the cynical reflection. In a French court the youngest son of Jay Gould has brought suit against his second wife, Miss Edith Kelly, the alleged grounds being incompatability of temper, It is eaid that Mr. and Mrs. Gould have been living apart for several months. The suit makes the fourth for either separation or com- plete divorce in which the children of the great American ruler of railroads have been involved. It was only a few years ago that Frank Gould him- self—“Helen’s baby.” as he used to be called because of the devotion lavished upon him by his sister, Mrs. Helen Gould Shepard figured in a suit for absolute divorce brought and won by his first wife, Mrs. Helen Kelly Gould. She was the granddaughter of a man well known in New York life, the late Eugene Kelly. Her marriage with Frank Gould was.a typical boy-and-girl romance, taking place when she was seventeen and he nineteen, after a friendship whica dated from earliest childhood. ‘The young bridegroom christened his yacht the “Helenita,” in honor of his blonde girl wife, and the two sailed away for a honeymoon tour of the world.

At this time Mr. Gould ap- justified in abandoning her unleas she peared deeply moved and made a sig- nificant comment on the course of his love affairs. He said: “A fellow can have a bully wife and beautiful chil- dren and still be cursed. If 1 had been a poor chap I could have es- caped it all. This is another curse of money. It isn't hardly fair, is it?” Mrs, Gould first decided to ask for took the pledge, He alleged that she began the day with two or three cocktails before breal@fast, imbibed a pint of hock at luncheon, sipped brandy highballs and unlimited cham- pagne at dinner.
