GOULDS LIKEHAPPY LOVERS
Howard and Wits Merrily Do the
' Village Fair and Smash
Clay Pipes.
(Copyright, 1901, by Presa publishing Co.)
PARIS, Aug. 24. (New York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) Previous to
sailing for America from Havre on their
steam yacht Niagara, Mr, and Mrs. How
ard Oould spent a fow days In Paris abso
lutely by themselves, like a mutually In
fatuated pair of lovers.
One morning the World correspondent,
taking a spin on his bicycle, met them
riding on horseback In the Bols de Boulogne
before ,6 o'clock. Mrs. Gould wore a becom
ing blue habit with a rather startling,
Jaunty sombrero of gray felt, suggestive
ot other days. Through the broad avenues,
almost deserted at that hour, the happy
pair galloped .gaily, Mrs. Gould's laugh
ringing out at timet at some story or com
pliment trom her husband.
During her stay In Parts she summoned
several prominent dressmakers, modistes
and Jewelers for conference In her apart
ment at Hotel RlU, presumably placing
largo orders with them.
One afternoon while sitting in the hotel
tea room she saw Emma Eames seated a
few tables away, went to the table and
Introduced herself (to the singer, who im
mediately beamed tn Immense, delight.
The two eat an hour, chatting vivaciously,
each anxious to charm the other. In the
course of the conversation Mrs. Gould ex
pressed .envy ot Mme. Eames for owning
a house in Paris, adding:
"We must have a place here ourselves'
next year. It la the only way really to
enjoy Paris. Unless I am surrounded br
my own things I am miserable. Hotel, life
la simply Intolerable."
The last day tho Goulds spent here they
drove over to Bt. Cloud and took dinner
on the terrace at Pavilion Betlevue, over
looking the river, much as the famous Star
and Garter Inn on the Thames, near Lon
don. Other Americans who were dining tbire
say that Mrs. Gould summoned tho leader
of tho Hungarian band and gave him a
program of pieces sho wished played which
she had written on a menu card. The fel
low was simply paralyzed at tho size ot
the tip wherewith Mr. Gould backed his
wife's request.
Dinner over, Mrs. Gould being In good
spirits, went gaily with her husband
through the vlllngo fair nnd both, had a
Jolly tlmo making scores In the shooting,
galleries. Mrs. Gould camo off victorious,
her marksmanship attracting crowds.
Atter this exploit ,the couple walked back
to St. Cloud and returned to Paris by tho
last suburban penny boat.

badly, beaten then, hut the Americans
only Won by a narrow margin a year later
at Belfast. We are In excellent fettlo and

Cablegram-Special Telegram.) William
Pcraber Hreves, agent genoral ot Now Zea
land In London, on being Interviewed by
the World correspondent, ridiculed the In
terpretation put on Prime Minister Seddon's .
recent uttoranccs regarding tho working ot
the Industrial arbitration net and the state
ment that the congestion of cases beforo tho
conciliation boards Is paralyzing business; '
Mr. Reeves said:
"During the last six years, the period dur- '
Ing which tho net hns been In operation, the.
colony has enjoyed unexampled prosperity
Trade has Increased by onc-thlrd and the
number of workers employed hns nearly
doubled."
Ho showed tho World correspondent a ca
ble dispatch from Mr. Seddon authorizing
a contradiction of the report of n paralysis
ot business and arsurlng him that trade Is
normal nnd brisk.
"I bellevo from my own knowledge of the
subject," Mr. Rocvea continued, "that Mr.
Seddon's remarks about tho congestion ot '
tho conciliation courts Is only ot a local and
not of a general character nnd probably was '
applied to the town of Wellington. The
courts no doubt have been largely rivalled '
of nnd Mr. Seddon might have urged tho
local labor representatives to settle their
disputes outsldo of the court It possible.
Hut It Is, ridiculous to suggest that the pre
mier condemned n system which has worked '
satisfactorily for six years. The census fig

been made In industrials all around since ,

PAUL POTTER'S LIVE OSTRICH
He Has m Lively Time Transporting
This Featnro ot His New 1
Boer Flay.
(Copyright, 1001, by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, Aug. 24. (Now York World Ca
blegramSpecial Telegram.) Paul Potter,
had expected to remain quietly at Spa,
where bis wlfo was taking tho waters, 'but
was summoned abruptly trom Belgium by;
a cable dispatch saying he must sail for
Now York Immediately to superintend the
rehearsal of his Boer play, "Red Klooft"
He sailed today on the French liner La
Champagne.
The dramatist describes as the funniest,
although at tho tlmo tho most distressing,
experience ot bis life tho taking to a rail
way freight station ot an ostrich he and
Louis Mann had bought In Brussels, which'
Is ,to appear In Mr. Potter's play at tho
Savoy theater, New York. The bird ' Is
Introduced to give a South African color
to the drama, which hinges on tho Jameson,
raid. Tho ostrich Is to carry a warning
dispatch to a Boer chief.
After a loag search Mr. Mann secured a
genulno South African bird and hired a
Belgian idler to take It' to the station. Both
Potter and tho German comedian escorted
it at a distance. In passing through tho
mala thoroughfare tho ostrich was dis
tracted by the noise nnd movement of the
busy street and proved rebellious, darting
In every direction foolishly. A policeman
getting angry at the bird's antics, Mr.
Potter and Mr, Mann wero compelled to
help move the fowl along. . .
"For two hours," says Mr. Potter, "we
had the greatest time. Sometimes we were
tugging at the ropo In on offort to move
the ostrich forward by sheer strength,
Sometimes we were coaxing him, with offers
of fruit. The man we had engaged was
mainly occupied In pushing at the rear,
while Mann and myself wero pulling In
front.
"Suddenly the bird made a wild dash
across the street, moving our. desporately
clinging trio like a cyclone, and wo had
Jeering crowd following us. Several times
the ostrich took a fancy to some ladles'
bats and tried to eat tho birds and flowora
on them. Wo would no sooner start to
apologize than the bird would pull away,,
"After the first ten minutes ot sport I was
willing to let tho ostrich go, but Mann, who,
although he lost his hat, never lost his-good
humor, said, to mo: 'Potter, this is great
fun if it Is taken In the proper spirit. Don't
get discouraged? I am going to speak to
tho beast In Its own dialect.'
"And then 'Mann's Dutch exhortations to
that stupid bird were simply killing. Thoy
made me laugh In spite ot myself. Finally
ono charitable native, a truck driver seeing
our plight, off 0 red to carry us, bird and all.
They strapped tho ostrich securoly and wo
followed In a cab,
"That happened three weeks ago. Yester
day I received a cabla Inquiry front Mann, '
who Is back In New York, saying: 'Learned
by wireless telegraphy ostrich Is not aboard 1
incoming Cunarder. Find whcro stranded.'
"The result of my inquiry," Mr. Potter
Concluded; "was that tho ostrich had missed
a train somewhere, but is now on mid-ocean
on another ship. I am willing to bet that
Mann won't undertake personally to movo
tho bird from the pier to the theater when
It gets to New York."
