WHY BRUNSCHWIG
SURRENDERED HIS son
Thought Welfare of Child Should Re
Considered before Feelings of
Parent, Hence Allowed Mother


Parent, Hence Allowed Mother
To Have Lad.
Attorney S. H. London, representing
Felix Brunschwig, in the case involving
possession of Alexander Fernand Brun-
schwig, the year old son of Mr..
Brunschwig and Mrs. Pauline Cohen
Eichel, his divorced wife, takes excep-
ton to the statement that the money
consideration in the case had any con-
nection with the care and custody of
the child
Mr.. London Wednesday produced the
agreement upon which the decree of
Tuesday by Judge Walthall was based,
which states in part:
In consideration of the sum of
$4,000 to be paid by Mrs. Pauline Cohen
EicheI to Felix Brunschwig, TO reim-
burse him for costs and expenses in
Cured and the release Of certain
property TO Mrs. Eichel, upon which he
holds lien
The property referred to is described
as being the south eight feet OF lot Is,
and lots 10 and 20. block 7S. Campbells
addition to Ell PasO.
Mr.. London denies positively that the
money consideration had anything to
do with the child, as Mr. Brunschwig
had scome to the conclusion that 1t
would be better for the child to be IN
the custody of either parent the entire
time, as yearly trips across the ocean
would have to be made, as Mr.. Brun
schwig resides in Paris, France. and
this would interrupt the attendance of
the child at school, and divert his at
tontion from his studies.
That Mr. BrunSchwig would have
been willing to pay $4,000 for the care
and custody of the child until he was
"A years Of age is stated by Mr.. Lon
don, who says he made that offer a
week ago 20 Mrs. Eichel.
Mr.. London further states that Mr..
Brunschwig decided that if he could
not have the custody of the child the
entire time, that he would. be willing
to sacrifice his own feelings in the
matter and let Mrs. Eichel have the
custody of the child as he believed the
welfare Of the boy to be of greater
Importance than the feelings of either

-Four Crates Of String Beans
Last Saturday

That the farm product of the state
of Arkansas can always find a
ready market was fully demonstra-
ted last Saturday evening when g.
w. Stevens brought to town from
his farm located about a mile from
Pocahontas, twenty-four crates of
string beans which he shipped the
same evening by express to COM
mission house in Chicago, Ill.
An inspection of some of the
crates revealed the fact that the
beans were in an excellent condi
ton and the Star Herald man heard
Mr.. Stevens remark that he had
plenty more at home equally as good.
1t should be gratifying news to the
people in this section to know that
Arkansas is coming to the front as
food producing state and we heard
one prominent gentleman of the
town remark thai it seemed strange
that Chicago could not find closer
supplying point than Pocahontas.

FINDS A HOLE
Thought he Was GONG to Unearth a
Treasure. Found COrnstaIkS

There was great excitement in
Pocahontas Sunday evening when
some strange man came to town
and informed the authorities that he
had found what he thought to be a
newly made grave near town on the
farm owned by Shannon Bros.
City marshal Jesse Haynes, think
ing that he had new case in sight
or that it might be the hiding place
for money of some miser, waited un-
til after dark Sunday night and then
took some of the boys with him,
together with picks and shovels and
proceeded to the spot. They found
a place about 8 feet IN length and
two feet wide and they proceeded
to use their implements. After
going down about seven feet they
returned to Pocahontas and reported
that they had found corn stalks in
the bottom Of the hole. Some of
Jesse's intimate friends declare that
he found pot of gold but he firmly
denies the allegation and still insists
that there is some mystery to the
whole matter but he is positive that
"there is hole in the ground"

From all reports last Sunday was
a very enjoyable day for a number

some popular resort and mingle
with one another and for several
weeks the time has been looked
forward to with much pleasure by
those interested. Prepala ions were
made this year for grand time and
last Sunday the families began leav-
ing early for the place chosen for
the outing. Two hours of the
morning were spent by the men in
catching fish, which were secured in
abundance and there was plenty
other provisions which were pre-
pared by the lady folks. 1t is esti'
mated that there were at least one
hundred people present and all had
a pleasant time. Judge Meeks,
