Anna Gould, daughter of the late Jay Gould of New York and Paris, to Marie Pierre Ca mllie Louise Helle Talleyrald Du Perlgord, Prince De Saran.

With great reluctance Justice Buden "bender admitted that he had tied the tJcnot under a pledge , of the greatest secrecy, that to keen this he had been prevented from making a report of the ' .wedding to the Hoboken board of health In SO days, as Is required by the state , : '-law. Having the certainty of a fine of 150 "staring him in the face-because or ms failure to obey the marriage statute he has been anxious to send the record to the clerk of vital statistics of Ho 1 'boken, but has been urged from time to time not to do so by a lawyer who arranged for the performance of the ceremony." ' Got Big Tee. '" He admitted, : however, that he will not be a heavy loser financially because nf his violation of the law. The fee raid to him for uniting the prince and Madame Oould was o00, the largest that has ever been given to any of the marrying justices and parsons In Ho ':' -boken. : !' . H " " ' Just when the record will be legally filed he was unable to say. He ex. pressed the hope that the obstacles In the way of his doing so. would be re moved during the coming week. I That Prince Helle and his bride are iiot yet In the mood to have formal an nouncement of their alliance made was evidenced by the -manner in which the prince acted when he was questioned at Jila apartments in Paris by a reporter of the Hearst news service. V When In formed that the story of the wedding in Hoboken had leaked out, he became red In the face, turned sharply on fits heels nd walked away, absolutely refusing to say a word. : --'., Only the greatest persuasion Induced '.Timlin ftudctnhandiH tA iffll of the wad ding. Ever since the night on which it was performed, vwhen rumors that it had taken place became rife, he denied ab solutely that he had ever met the prince jor Madame uouio. But today, Because of the.worrlment over the delay in f 11 Ing the record, he finally concluded that it was Dest to change ms course a trixie. ? . . Bays True. . j- Tea, .It is true," he said after being questioned for close to half an hour. "I won't deny it. I don't want to be quoted but you can go ahead and pub lish the story. I married them." The wedding, besides being secret, Budenbender admitted, was also very cloBe to a midnight marriage. It was about 11 o'clock when the prince and ' the former countess stood up before him with Joined hands and by the time the brief ceremony was concluded the clock in the justice's little office at. 404 Washington street stood close to mid night. Prince Helle gave a New Jersey resi dence to comply with the requirements of the New Jersey law. But a. ahort - time elapsed after the marriage had been solemnised until the prince and . the newly-made princess parted, not to meet again until they had reached - the other side of the Atlantic ; ; . ... ,. - , , ...J.

The committee was assured that a conven tion hall would be furnished that would be complete in every detail, and we knew Denver would make good that promise. "The committee that Denver sent to urge this city's claims was prepared to assure us on every point. It was a committee of business men who knew what they were talking about, and its members made such a deep impres sion upon the national committee that mere was nothing leit to ao out awara the convention to the hustling western city. Since Denver secured the conven tion tnere never nas been a ooubt in the minds of the members of the nation al committee on arrangements but that this citv would meet Its obligations. The money pledged to pay the expenses of the convention-was paid promptly, and In addition to this sum of 3100,000 Denver Is building an auditorium that will cost not less than o50,000, and Is raising a large fund to entertain our ?eople when they come to your beautl ul city." Colonel John I. Martin, the veteran sergeant-at-arms, said he never had seen such complete methods in arranging for uenver committee. - "You Denver people certainly are en titled to put your city forward as the leading convention city In America," declared Colonel Martin." Securing and handling conventions with you is a bus iness, and you have learned well the principles of such ventures.
