BEEN MISSING A YEAR
Country Wide Search Still Being Made
For Catherine Winters.

! NEWCASTLE, Ind, Mar. 21.-One
year has come and gone today since
the disappearance of Catherine Win
ters, the 9-year-Old daughter of Dr.
and Mrs. w. A. Winters of this city.
Though hundreds of clues have been
Investigated, and though DR.. Winters
has impoverished himself in the search,
the mystery is as impenetrable today
as it was a year ago.
DR.. Winters still appears confident
that Catherine will be found. He still
cherishes the theory that she was kid
mapped, and believes with many others
that gypsies were responsible, though
all attempts to locate gypsy bands
near Newcastle at that time failed
Reports bearing every evidence of
plausibility have come from all parts
of the United States to the effect that
the Winters child was found, or that
persons had confessed the kidnapping,
but under the personal investigation of
DR.. Winters or local authorities they
were disproved.
The disappearance was just prior to
the disastrous flood of last spring, and
some believe the little girl was drown
ed and swept away by the waters. A
special grand jury investigation dis
closed nothing. Congressman Finly
Gray of this district, has asked con-
gress to enact law better protecting
the home from kidnappers, but this ap-
pears to be the only tangible result !
of the countrywide search.

DETAIL TREE PLAN COMPLETE
Professors Shattuck and Cook Make
Map for Location Of Trees-NOrWay
Maple on Third Street.

The public improvements committee
OF the chamber of commerce, formed
| of j. w. Lieuallen, w. L. Payne and
DR.. F. L. Barrows, has added to it's
committee, Professors Shattuck and
Cook of the forestry department of the
university, who have just completed a
F! forestry map of Moscow which will
be submitted to the chamber of COM
merce at the next luncheon of that
body. The map is very full, showing
in detail the exact condition of the
parking on practically every street in
the city. The variety of trees on each
street is indicated and where for any
reason the variety has been improper
ly selected or the alignment from
block to block is not true the defects
are noted.
In addition to presenting the pres
ent conditions of Moscow's parkings
the committees map bears recommend
ations Of ways and means through
which it may be hoped to bring about
an Improvement. For each of the
streets over which it extends var
iety of trees will be recommended
which is considered best adapted to
the surrounding conditions. Where |
most of the trees of any one street |
are of the same variety and in a |
healthy condition that variety will be |
for further planting. |
In some instances the committee will |
probably recommend that trees be re-
moved in order that the alignment |
may be adjusted or that trees of a I
more desirable variety may be sub
,tituted.
The committee has not yet definite
y decided on the varieties to be rec
for any street except Third.
t will recommend that Norway
Iaples be planted on Third street as
ar east. as the present pavement eX
ends. From that point on it would
ave black locusts planted since al
eady there are more of that variety ,
han any other in that section.
