Miss Clara Sandt, of Keno
Sha, Astonishes Fresno
With Her Claims.
PLANNED FOREIGN TRIP
Ready to Sail for China but
Some Doubt Is Raised Re
garding Her Wealth.

Miss Clara Sandt, a pretty mani
curist who spent her early life in Ken
osha and-who only recently left this
city to go west, must have had one
wonderful time in Fresno, California.
as long as it lasted. Newspaper des-
patches reaching Kenosha today made
inquiry regarding whether or not Miss
Sandt was in reality an heiress to
100000 fortune left by her brother,
Nicholas Sandt, and in consequence
of this would be planning trip to the
Orient and extensive travelling over
seas. The dispatches did not state
other than that the "Kenosha heiress"
had claimed that she was entitled to
a part of this estate, which she claimed
was made by her father Frank x
Sandt, still living in Kenosha, and
turned over to the bachelor brother
who died in May, 1922.
The tenor of the dispatches was
such as to indicate that the former
Kenosha girl had suddenly trans
formed herself from a manicurist ir
Fresno to an heiress and that the
transformation had caused no little
excitement in the California city.
Exaggerated Only the Amount.
Investigation revealed that the press
dispatches regarding the fact that the
young woman was an heiress were
correct in every detail except the
amount. The brother, Nicholas Sandt
did die last May and his sister was
named as one of the heirs to his es-
tate, consisting of some real estate in
the western part of the city and of
some personal property. The value of
the estate was not in the neighborhood
of 100000 but in the neighborhood of
$4,000 according to the records of the
court.
Miss Sandt was to share, share and
share alike, in this estate with her
seven brothers and sisters. The prop
erty has not yet been divided due to a
provision in the will that it is to be
held until sold at a reasonable figure
sometime within the two years follow
ing his death.
Recalls Marital Troubles.
The investigation caused by the
queries from Fresno also uncovered a
marital difficulty in which Miss Sandt,
then Mrs. Clara Schultzen, must have
been engaged at the time the will was
made. Evidently she had become es-
tranged from her husband for the will
has this provision:
''It is also my will and desire that in
the event of the death of my sister,
Clara Schultzen, before the distribu-
tion of the proceeds of my estate, then
and in that case her share shall be
divided among my remaining brothers
and sisters-unless my said sister
Clara Schultzen and her husband are
reconciled and living together at the
time of her DEATH"
Frics.ds of Miss Sandt in Kenosha
were certain that the press dispatches
from Fresno had greatly exaggerated
any part she may have had in the
situation there.

Lawyers Will Eat


Isn't it strange that all the lawyers
are lean? Try to conjure up in your
memory one fat one-you can't: If
there is within the memory of the old
est living inhabitant recollection Of
having once seen man who was a
lawyer and corpulent too, we'll, that
was only the exception which proves
the rule: obesity and law do not go
together.
Every now and then, however, the
lawyers give banquet but nobody is
invited except those of the cloth, so
that science has been unable to regis
ter how many calories they consume.
Physicians and newspaper men are
barred,
Tonight they give themselves another
feed" 1t will take place at the Elks'
club. "Only for mercy's sake" cries
Joe Higgins, brother of the secretary,
Ed Higgins, Of the bar association,
don't call it a banquet or the lawyers
will think they have to pay two bucks
and will stay away! Say it's just an
informal business meeting. The time
is six o'colck."
"Then all the lawyers will be there
at seven?"
Certainly not! Six o'clock sharp!"

Society and Social EUents
Famous Recipes
CHOPS
BY BERTHA E. SHAPLEIGH
OF Columbia University,

Of Columbia University.
Probably most housekeepers, asked
to name the meats preferred by their
families, would include chops-lamb,
veal or pork.
There are many ways of cooking
them besides plain broiled.
The casserole, or covered baking
dish, which may be sent to the table,
is q great help.
For instance, pork chops, Drowned in
a frying pan, then placed on bed Of
sliced apples, seasoned and allowed to
cook rs minutes or longer, are delici-
Gus.
Stuffed chops are a change from the
usual method Of cooking. The stuffing
may be bread, nicely seasoned, butter
and parsley. The chop is cut extra
thick and split to the bone, and the
stuffing is placed between the layers,
and the whole cooked in frying pan
until will Drowned. Place ina casse-
role and pour over them a gravy made
in the pan in which the chops were
fried. Or the chops may be cooked in
the gravy in the pan.
Lamb chops are good served on thin
slices Of broiled ham. A PURGE Of
onions is good accompaniment for
veal chops. Fried apples are the fin
ishing touch for pork chops.

String of Pearls
In Ohio Mound
(By United Pressl

tBy United Press
Columbus, GA strand of pearls
worth $4,000 unearthed from a mound
in Ross County is being held in the
Archaeological Museum at Ohio State
University. 1t viii be placed on dis
play when the new wing of the build
ing now under construction is COM
pleted.
The necklace was unearthed by an
expedition headed by DR.. William c.
Mills, director of the Ohio Historical
and Archaeological Society, studying
the work of ancient peoples in south
ern Ohio.
About 1000 years ago on Indian pa
tiently gathered together $50 pearls,
They were unpublished, but of the finest
quality. He succeeded, after untiring
effort, in wearing tiny hole in each
one in order to string them to hang
about his neck.
A part of the string as found still
holding some of the pearls together
and they have all been restrung in
exactly the same positions they former
ly occupied.
The gems were all extracted from
fresh water mussels. The natives SO
priced jewelry and beautiful ornaments
that they made some good imitation
pearls.
How such small holes were bored
in so neat way is matter of much
conjecture. DR.. Mills believes thy may
have been worn through by the use OF
sand. The Indian may have used a
stick of unusually small diameter and
worked the sand through.
At any rate he must have had an
indefinite amount of patience to do
such everlasting drilling.
