six weeks gayety by the heiress of the
Ward estate In court yesterday the
uncle told of some of the cases OF prodi-
gality OF his niece.
Once in Paris she paid $4,000 for a
pair of diamond errings. Later, when
she needed some money, she pawned
them for small sum and never re-
ideemd them. Her mania for clothing
was extraordinary. She bought hats by
the score. Her gowns were made a
dozen at time and as for gloves and
shoes they were purchased by the case.
She bought royalty. Wore the garments
once and then presented them to her
maids. She was not averse to buying
houses and country villas in the same
liberal way and afterward disposing of
them for song"
This woman, who has been so con-
stantly in the glare of publicity, was
midst of luxury, and all her earliest I'M
pressions We're based on unbounded
wealth and no restrictions in spending
it. Her father was Eber e. Ward. and
her mother Catherine Lyon, sister of
Thomas r. Lyon, the new conservator.
Mr.. Ward dropped dead at the door of
his bank building in Detroit in 1885,
when Clara was years old. The widow
brought the girl and her elder brother
to Chicago, but later went to Europe.
where the children were educated, a por-
ton of the girlhood of the future prin-
cess being spent in French convent.
The property left by Mr.. Ward was
mostly pine land near Ludington, Mich,
and, in the course of time, it became ex-
ceedingly valuable. The management of
the estate was put in the hands of
Thomas r. Lyon as trustee. In 1894 it
was partitioned equally between the
widow. the son. Eber b. Ward, Jr., and
Clara, who had married Joseph de Ri
quet. Prince de Chimay, in 1880. In 1896
the Princess de Chimay eloped with a
gypsy musician named Jancsi Rigo.
Prince de Chimay made application for
divorce. with the custody of the two
children. Marie, born in 1891, and Joseph.
born in 1894. Ine divorce was granted
in 1897, and in the settlement the sum
Of $500, 900 was taken out of the princess
share in the Ward estate on account of
her children, who are living with their
father in Belgium. and who will receive
equal shares of the money upon reach
ing their majority. and. when their
mother dies, will come in for nearly ST.

may. formerly Clara Ward, Of Detroit
was declared a spendthrift and incapa-
BILE of managing her property. in the
probate court here yesterday Thomas
r. Lyons. her uncle. was appointed con-
servatory of her estate and filed bond
Of 100000. He alleged that since She
came into possession of her property. in
1894, the princess has spent 100000 in
addition to her annual income of from
s35 1000 to $4,000. Mr.. Lyons produced
proof that his niece concurred with him
The present action. according to state
ments of Mr.. Lyons to the jury. was
precipitated by the demand made in
February last from Egypt for soO.OoO to
pay the womans accumulated debts.
These has accrued in two years.
This bin was the largest ever pre-
sented Her previous record had been
the spending of 100000 francs in Paris
in six weeks All of these bills, Mr..
Lyons, as trustee. had to settle cut of
the principal of the woman's fortune.
When the debts in Egypt were discov-
cred Mr.. Lyons arranged meeting
with his niece in London. She then ac-
knowledged that she waA:ncapable of
resisting the temptation of buying
whatever she wanted
1t was show by Mr. Lyon that Clara
de Chimay had spent 100000 in addi-
ton to her income of $4,000 to $4,000 a
year. The plan foAa settlement If the
debts and the management IN future of
all her financial affairs was concurred
in by the princess. A signed agreement
from her was placed on file in the case.
The arrangement was made last month
in London. whore Mr.. Lyon went in
haste when he learned that debt of
more than $4,000 had been piled up by
the princess in Egypt. Mr.. Lyon testi
fled that when he met his nieces he read
her the petition.
I've said some hard things about
you, Clara, but not more than you know
to be facts" he told her.
Then she read the document and fin
ally replied:
IT'S all true enough. guess it's the
only way and I'll sign It,"
When Mr.. Lyon left her he had Pc
tition in his pocket that confessed the
princess was spendthrift and incap-
able OF conducting her own affairs. The
last debt. for the sum Of $4,000, accu-
muiated in Egypt. was the largest item
ever given to Mr.. lyon to settle. Pre-
viously he had sent TO Paris $4,000 for

HOW THE PYROGRAPH CAN BE MADE TO

ment lends itself kindly. With it and some in
senutv a chip 2 dried fungus an irregular bit Of
bark or an oddly shaped stick assumes an air that
makes il a desirable souvenir. Just now every girl
must have pipe rack for her den, and the fashions
of these are legion. Sticks covered with hooks for
stems pipes, fans and the like, requiring only the
space of a corner in which TO stand. are especially
well liked for college rooms and small apartments.
The plain Flemish oak sticks which started the fad
were superseded by fantastic ones mounted with

the purpose. With the imagination in good work

fashion. The place and date of finding are burned
through the bark the stick, and If pipe rack Is

screwed in easily. The great advantage Of these
sticks is the variety OF mementos and trophies
