COURT HOUSE SHOT UP BY ALLEN GANG ft ... HELEN GOULD ' 4 , l v - i for herself, and ii accompanied by some prominent financiers. She will see and study for the first time the great Gould properties that have their center in San Francisco. With her are a number of eastern finan ciers and railroad men, with whom ihe will advise. On her trip to the coast Miss Helen Gould Is accompanied by the men at the head of the Gould properties. In the party are B. F.

Jeffery. president of the Western Pacific, chairman of the financial board of the Rio Grande and chief financial adviser to the Goulds; Charles H. Schlacks, first vice-president of the Western Pacific and of the Denver ft Rio Grande.. Until now Miss Gould has remained free of the financial enterprises In which ber family has been Involved. Her chief concern has been her philan thropic work. When it looked as though- the Missouri Pacific would be lost to George Gould, be was able to Interest Speyer ft Co., aod they raised $23,000,000 to put into the property. Then attention was turned to the Denver ft Rio Grande. A system of financing has Just been completed by which from 110.000,000 to $2S,000.000 will be available.

She has practically agreed to use her entire per sonal fortune, estimated at $20,000,000, to help restore the family credit. Miss Gould Is credited with having said that she will give every cent, If necessary, to preserve the heritage that her father bequeathed them. HEAD OF VERY Sadness and gloom have been the portion of a large section of the American Society (be careful of the large S!), since the publication of that remarkable book "The 469 Ultra Fashionables of America," compiled ' by Charles Wilbur de Lyon Nichols, on whose shoulders has fallen the mantle of Ward McAllister, Inventor of New York's "400." The cream of the cream of American society have now been segregated, coralled, re concentrated or otherwise abstracted from the common herd and seated on high In the splendor and dazzling radiance of Mr. de Lyon Nichols, au gust approval. There appears to be, however, a remarkable lack of Inven tion displayed In. the New York list of 300 notables. It Is confined prac tically to the guests who were Invited to meet the Connaughts and Princess Patricia on their recent visit. Surely New York is going to the dogs when it can only muster a beggarly 300. Even Ward McAllister, in an earlier and less enlightened period, permitted the metropolis to have a sacred circle of 400. The reason may be that only the superfine ultra-fashionables are included in Beau Nichols' arbitrary selec tion, and that those unfortunates who are at all tainted with the stigma of slowness, who do not fully subscribe to the modern doctrine of "eat, drank and be merry, for tomorrow we die," are dropped relentlessly. Possibly the compiler's wisdom did not wholly desert him and he hesitated to embark on the stormy waters of the next stratum below, being assured of countenance and support by the precedent already established. ...

Jacques Lebaudy, first emperor of the Sahara, idler of the Paris boulevards and one time lover ef the spectacular, has found New York a place where he can indulge In many of the eccentricities which made him notorious In France and elsewhere.

As was his wish when be came here an exile from France, but with money to burn, he has effaced himself, has joined the submerged tenth as it were. Just now he is living In a villa with in a hundred miles of this city, en joying himself and awaiting the out come of the suit which he has brougbt against the superintendent of banks and the Carnegie Trust company for an accounting of something like $2, 000,000, that being the value of prop erty in France which he alleges the trust company was to dispose of for Thesult brougbt by Jacques Pre mier, as be used to sign himself on hotel registers, Is really an echo of his Saharan expedition. It was In 1906 that Lebaudy,' forced to aban don his scheme of empire In the desert owing to the refusal of the powers to recognize his claims, de termined to seek an asylum in the United States. Because of the treat ment of some of his men France had become uncomfortable for him. In September, 1908, be issued a procla mation offering his French property for sale, signed by his imperial hand which was sent to leading bankers abroad and which was the forerunner of his present suit.

Sparks walked down Main street fair ly enveloped In pelts of wild animals he had caught and skinned, he at tracted no little attention. He had fifteen unusually fine coyote pelts and five bobcat pelts strung on a circu lar wire, which rested on his shoulder like a yoke, and the skins hung down on all sides like a cape, nearly to the ground. It Is the biggest and most valuable catch of the kind brought to County Clerk Charles R. De Lap In a long time. The bounty collected from the clerk was at the rate of $1.60 for the coyote skins and $2 for the bides or the bob cats. In addition to the total bounty of $33.50, he will got anywhere from $4 to $8 apiece for the skins. As a rule, coyote skim bring less than those of bobcats, but this winter they are slightly higher.

When unexpected company arrives ind a meal muat be furnished In a short time. It Is well to have for such occasion a ebelf of foods that ran be quickly prepared.
