New shopping bags fancier than
those of leather, and new combs in
odd shapes are among the latest OF
novelties in accessories of dress that
are alluringly displayed in the shops.
In the picture given here two of these
bags are shown, together with a
comb. The bags are mounted on
the new clasp, which has been chris

of the bag, and when pressed to close

At the left the long bag is made OF
gold-colored MORE ribbon of heavy,
soft quality. This is gathered to a
fiat bag made of gold beads, having
lowered pattern in beads Of vari-
Gus color and finished at the bottom
with a tasseled fringe of beads. The
clasp is of French gilt and the cap is
OF the same.
At the right the bag is made Of
black MORE ribbon in a fine quality

lined with Powered silk in lavender,
and the cap which confines the clasp
is of gunmetal set with an amethyst.

day IS over. There were flowers on the
desk at his Office and there was an air
OF contentment that listened like the
old song "Four Years More. -
1t had been taken as, foregone con-
clusion that following the recess ap-
pointment the. formal appointment
would be sent to the senate at this
session Of congress. President Wilson
adopted the plan of taking care of all
the recess appointments just before the
Christmas holiday in order that the
appointments might come just at the
right time to serve as Christmas
present from the head executive of the
nation. Under the appointment Post
master German will probably remain in
Office until some time in 1920 as there
will undoubtedly be some delay in
naming a successor even if the Repub-
Hcan administration should be called
back into power.
The postmaster has lost no time in
seeking improvements of the Kenosha
Office and with four years promised to
him it is certain that he will redouble
efforts to get more mel and better
equipped for the Kenosha Office. 1t is
most probable that one of the first de-
mands will be for branch office. The
holiday business this year has shown
that it is all but impossible to handle
the great business of Kenosha through
the present facilities A request is now
before the department asking for an
eytenion of the carrier service in the
city and it is expected that some ac-
tion will be taken on this early in the
new year.
More clerks are also needed and
Postmaster German will in few days
submit to Washington series of
recommendations for the Improvement
Of the service here. He has been given
assurance that his requests will be
given very careful consideration.

Judge Belden Gives Cleo
Sloan Anderson Benas-
chek Unexpected Christ
mas Present Thursday.
HUSBAND IS TO APPEAL

Cleo Sloan Anderson Benaschek is
going to have about the happiest Christ
mas of any woman in Kenosha as late
Thursday afternoon after hours Of bit
ter argument and testimony in which
her relations with two men whom she
had called 'shusband - were laid bare
Judge Belden gave the mother the Gus
tody of little Verne Anderson her sew
en- year old boy from whom she had
been separated by an order of the mu-
Mrs. Benaschek is the daughter of w.
H. Slaone, wealthy Chicago valve
manufacturer, and she left the court
room holding the little boy in her arms
while great tears coursed down her
cheeks. The decision of the court came
as a surprise David Z. Anderson,
formerly of Kenosha but now of Chica-
go has been making bitter fight to
secure the custody of the child. When
Mrs. Anderson got her divorce in the
municipal court more than year ago
the child was awarded to her. Then
she left the state and went to another
state and married against the order of
the court. She married Frank Bena-
schek, who her former husband claim
ed had been one of the causes of the
breaking up of their home, When she
came back to Kenosha she was cited
for contempt of court and the child
was taken and placed in the custody
of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank McClosky. They
had possession Of the child until the
order of Judge Belden gave it back to
the mother. Sloan, the father of the
young woman, who had been luke warm
in his defense of her when she was
forced to face the contempt charge sat
near to her when the court handed
down his decision and he seemed to be
just as excited over the order as was
the mother. Benaschek was also in
court.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1915-12-30

in his opinion the place for this child
and for any child where it was possible
was with the mother. However he
modified the decree of divorce in the
lower court and erased from the order
provision for any further alimony for
the support of the child. Anderson
was freed from all financial burden SO
far as the support of the child is con-
cerned and the order of the court will
give him the permission to visit the
child at any reasonable time. Bena
schek and his wife are now living in
Kenosha and little Verne will be the
honored member of the family on
Christmas day.

Anderson declared later that he had
instructed his attorneys to appeal to
the supreme court of Wisconsin and he
declared that he would carry the fight
for the custody of the child to the su-
preme court of the United States If
necessary.
During the day which Judge Belden
gave over to the hearing of the case
the life of Mrs. Benaschek since she
was a child was laid bare. She admit
ted that she had violated the order of
the court by marrying and that she
had not respected a later order of the
court but she made strong plea for
the little boy. Judge Belden after
hearing the argument announced that

CHILDREN ARE THRIFTY.

The Durkee school pupils reported a
total savings of $2.4S7.09 to their indi-
vidual accounts for the past year. OF
this, $4,000 is in the Christmas saw
iEgs department. In making the re-
port the principal of the school, e. E..
Better, said it was only fair to explain
that the total accounts of the children
of the Durkee school really amounts to
more than this, but through misun-
Outstanding on the part of some of the
parents, who had the idea that the
teachers were asking for the amounts
in order to get personal information
instead Of merely for the purpose Of
stimulating the children to greater
thrift next year, refused to allow their
children to make the reports requested.

GETS COMMISSION XMAS
Appointment Was Regularly Confirmed
by the United States Senate on De-
cember 18th, and Four Year Term
Dates from That Time.


Postmaster James German had the
best Christmas present handed out in
Kenosha for dangling in his Christmas
stocking on Saturday morning he
found a great big official envelope and
when he opened it he found new APP
pointment as postmaster of Kenosha.
1t was signed by President Wilson and
bore not only the stamp Of the presi-
dent but also that of the chief clerk of
the United States senate showing that
the senate had confirmed he appoint
ment on December 18th. The commits
sion had been sent out from Washing
ton together with four thousand other
appointments with the understanding
that it will reach Postmaster German
on Christmas day. Mr.. German has
been in charge of the postoffice for the
past five months but this time does not
count as a part of his regular term as
he had been working under a recess
appointment. His new commission
gives him the Office for the full term Of
four years dating from December 18th.
The appointment came as complete
surprise to the postmaster as he had
not been advised that the president had
sent his name to the senate. All ap-
pointments at this time of the year
are held up for the Christmas season
and for this reason the appointment
was not sent to Mr.. German at the day
of, confirmation. The postmaster was
all smiles today and he was busy pre-
pairing his new bond and it will be for
warded to the department before the

English planters who have estates in
the interior of the country away from
their own kind, grow desperately lone
some and often times buy themselves
a wife for a given period, say ten
years, with the understanding that at
the end of that time the wife is to
leave the estate but the planter pro-
vides a home for her somewhere else
or settles an annuity upon her. Often
the Eurasians are the children of this
sort of a union.

She said that although
she was often tempted to do some bit
of homework or some little task her
self, that it was impossible for her to
do so and retain the respect Of the
natives. They Immediately feel that
anyone who does anything with her
hands is low caste, and after this con-
c1usion is reached it is hard to keep
their respect.
She said she had a particularly good
Khansaman Cook who did her mar
ketlng or "bazaaring,'' as they call it
there. He was able to buy the best of
beef steak for ~ cents per pound at
the bazaar but he always charged her
2 cents for it, but if she tried to buy
at the bazaar herself she would be
charged 3 cents, as they only sell at
the low prices to natives. It is expect
ed that the cook will make something
off every purchase for the table but as
his salary is low this is not so serious
as it sounds.
Although beef is SO cheap, linen and
cotton cloth costs about what it does
here. Wooden is considerably cheaper,
however, because England charges no
duty on the importations to India.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kumlein left India
with a trunk filed with antiques and
other curios, including Cashmere en-
broideries and wood carving which are
highly priced both in India and Europe.
Between China and Calcutta the trunk
was lost and they have been able to
get no trace of it since.
