FALLS HEIR TO $65O,000
KITCHEN HELPER IN BOARDING.
HOUSE INFORMED THAT A
FORTUNE AWAITS HER.

From kitchen helper in, a st. Paul board
ing house to the possessor Of a fortune OF
some $650,000 is the change experienced
last night by Miss Lena Underdahl,
pretty .16-year- old girl employed at 419
Iglehart street. as she continued to wash
the dishes which had been placed before
her.
Miss Underdahl is the daughter Of the
late Rev. and Mrs. Ole, Anderson, who
formerly lived in Minneapolis, and the
adopted daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Under
dahl of st. Paul The estate, which the
newly made heiress long believed had been
dissipated by speculation, was left by DR..
John Tyler Of New York. He was Mrs.
Andersons brother and died about six
teen years ago. Unable to secure more
than the most meagre sums from the
estate, Miss Underdahl has been compelled
to work and it was while at her work
that the attorneys found her.
Not long ago, while a student at Gus
tavus Adolphus college, she attracted con-
siderable attention by bringing a breach
of promise suit against a fellow student
named Hartmann Wennenarll She said
she had loaned him money on the under
standing that they were to be married,
but she says now that the suit will be-
dropped.
Miss UnderdaM will remain at work I'M
til she leaves forth east in company with
her attorney Saturday night. She is said
to be the sole claimant to the estate.

last night, almost decided to accept
the offer of the Gibson estate to sell
to the club the st. Louis hotel and the
fifteen acres surrounding for $4,000.
Only the. conservatism of. Henry E.
GIBSON prevented the taking of this
step. Theodore Wetmore. who holds
title to the island site and who built
the clubhouse which fire destroyed
last. month, proposes either to sell the
the clubs securing a main land site,
to build on the island a. clubhouse
whose attractions will be greater than
any similar structure in. that portion
Of the lake region.
The club. is considering a plan to
build. on the lake shore below the st.
Louis hotel, and this. plan has been en-
couraged by members of the club who
are, also members Of the MINNEAPOLIS
Autom obile,- club, who promise a large
increase in the membership of the
Minnetonka club if the new clubhouse
is built on the main land where sheds
and care. can be provided for auto

Court Gives Two Another Chance - Third
>.3 Has TO Pay.
Three unhappy wives were in police
court this morning to testify against hus-
bands who had been arrested on charges
of non-support.
Sigwold Brandenburg seemed to treat
the matter as a joke and was ordered to
pay his wife SO per week and placed under
$500 bonds to observe the order.
He told the court that he had not sup
ported his wife for six months because he
was sick inside and out.
In giving his decision Judge Holt said
Brandenburg merited a. jail sentence but
his conscience would not allow him to
make the county feed such worthless
man.
George Crandall, formerly a telephone
linesman, was allowed a month to get q
job and support his wife and little babe. .
Louis Jardien. another man who failed
to give his wife the mere necessities of
life was given a month to brace up in and
take care of his family.
