FREE TIMBER FOR SETTLERS

We are informed by the for
est officials that settlers throughout
the national forests in Colorado,
Wyoming and South Dakota are tax
ing advantage of the recent regula-
tion by the department Of agricul-
ture which allows them to purchase
government timber on the forests Mt
the actual cost of making the sales.
This means that the ranch owners
can buy timber at from one-haf To
one-third of its actual value. In
some cases this same timber has been
appraised at from Si.50 to $3.50 per
thousand and from so to rs cents per
cord. Timber taken under this regu-
lation must, Of course, be used by the
purchaser for domestic and not for
commercial purposes.
The law enables settlers in or ad-
jacent to the national forests to de-
rive the full benefit Of its timber re-
sources. The man living near for
est may secure all the lumber he
needs for the development of his
ranch q great deal cheaper than one
living at distance where it would
be necessary to have his lumber ship
ped to him. Under the law, this tim
ber does not have TO be advertised
by the forest service before it is sold
nor is the purchaser limited as Ia
the amount he may wish to buy.

GRAND JURY BEGINS
SEARCH FOR MISSING GIRL

NEWCASTLE, Ind, Oct. 7-De-
termined to solve the mystery Of the
disappearance of little Catherine Win
ters last March, the grand jury TO-
day began searching inquiry into
the case, under special instructions
from Judge Jackson. The mystery
has been as battling as the famous
Charley Ross and Dorothy Arnold
disappearances. Catherine Winters,
on her way home from school, dis
appeared on the afternoon Of March
20, as if the earth had suddenly OPEN
ed and swallowed her. A nation-wids
search by county, state and federal
detectives and sleuths from the best
private agencies Of the country, fail
ed absolutely to unearth the slight
est clue to the child's whereabouts or
the manner Of her death--if that
were her fate. However, County
Prosecutor Evans, recently unearth-
ed what he believes are important
clues which make him believe the
child is still living. The child's pic
lures have been almost as widely
printed as those Of Dorothy Arnold.

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-Batteries-
Bender and Schang; Marquard and
Meyers! Before the start of the first
game of the worlds series today
every follower of the game from the
small boy who hung to telegraph
pole two blocks from the Polo
Grounds, to the railroad magnate who
occupied box behind the bat, be-
lieved this would be the announce
ment barked from the seasoned throat
of an umpire. In Bender and Mar
guard, Connie Mack and "Jawn" Nc
Graw have two pitchers who have
been tried through long, hard-fought
pennant races, pushed to the limit
in the final round-ups of heart
breaking worlds series and not found
wanting.
Plank and Bender are the only sur
vivors of the Athletic team which
faced the Giants under McGarw in
1905. Mathewson is the only mem
Der Of the McGraw machine which
won the worlds title in that year.
But these three stood out today as
the real big factors in the series.
Bender, cool, deliberate, cunning and
master of the game; Marquard,
equally as cool, deep student Of
the game, and man who works with
his head as well as his arm.
Missing from Connie Mack's array
of players was Jack Coombs, al
though he is eligible and will share
in the profits. The best Coombs can
do is to watch the game from the
grandstand unless old Fox Mack has
passed out the greatest bluff known
to man and intends to spring Iron

Giants as "killer." But Mack has
Houck, Brown and Shawkey, young
pitchers, ready TO step in. McGraw
has Demaree, and Tesreau to follow
Marquard, and Mathewson, who, il
was expected, will pitch tomorrow'i
game at Philadelphia.
The Giant hackers rely much or
the pitching staff Of New York t6
win the series. But they have no,
forgotten J. Franklin Baker. he Of
the home-run bat. And they alst
remember that the Giants have beer
in the throes Of batting slump fol
the past six weeks. But can tn,
