Ind. | If the editor of every paper in the central west will publish these lines there is no question but what Dr. S. j L Byers, of Seeleyville, lad., will recover his little son who was stolen from his home one year ago last May. Dr. Byers has fpent his entire resources in search for his child and unless the big hearted members of the press come to his assistance his eon tyili grow up an outlaw and an outcast among the lowest people of the earth. It is a cause that should appeal to every one and no father reading these lines can do so without a quickening of the heart and a sympathetic throb Id is believed that ?? - ' ? !_J.. j a. II IDI8 article is repuuieu iu luc newspapers it will form an endless chain that will uncover the lost boy's concealment and return him to his distracted parents. In doing this 1 the profession of journalism will he j fulfilling one of its highest destinies. Publishers whosecirculations touch the Wabash, Ohio and Mississippi valleys are especially requested to j reproduce this story of the lost child, as Dr. Byers believes his boy is now on some houseboat waiting to take the road in the spring. There is a reward of 8500 awaitiDg aDy information that will lead to the boy's recovery. No questions will be asked and if the abductor himself would deliver the boy to his parents he would not be molested. The bereaved parents are heart broken with grief and want only their child. If each journal will reprint these lines they will travel to every exchange table in the United States and briDg back to a wretched home a child who is now no doubt suffering with cold, uufed and wretched to a degree. Taiok of what your own feelings would be under similar circumstance*! This appeal is indicted originally by a publisher who saw Dr. Byera on y once, has no personal interest io bis quest other than the bond of sympathy that makes the world akin, and is inspired from the belief that the loat boy can only be found through the united effort of the country press of which he is proud to be a member. His recovery will be a triumph in advertising and no editor whose heart is placed right will refuse this appeal. Remember, it may be your child next! DESCRIPTION. Richmond Byere, if alive, was 6 years old last July, is of light complexion, has gray eyes, left eye noticbly crossed, has a small "V shaped Dick in the edge of the left ear, has a sharp chiD and a narrow, projecting forehead. He is rather small for his age and is unusually bright and intelligent, talking after the manner of a boy much older. Dr. Byers has searched among the roving bands that frequent the United States and believes that his son can be found among traveling juDk dealers, so called horse traders or movers. He does not think the boy was stolen by genuine gipsies. He thinks be was taken by a wandering band that used him for the purpose of begging in the towns alon? the route.

It will enable them to have daily communication with Columbia. A man in Laurens or Newberry can dispatch his letter on this morning train aod get his answer on the same train on the evening. It is important, perhaps, as soon as this service goes into operation to ask that all mail for points between Columbia and Prosperity be dispatched by way of the C. & G. line of the Southern, which leaves Columbia at 7 o'clock in the morniDg, and have this mail transferred from this traiD to the early train from Laurens to Columbia at Prosperity, so that tbe people between Prosperity and Oolumfc a will be enabbd to get their morning papers about three hours earlier than | they are doing under the present schedule. Tais will enable carriers on rural routes on the line betweeD Prosperity and Columbia to make a daily delivery and dispatch of mail on their routes, which under tie i present schedule is impossible for tbe reason that tbe first mail from Columbia does not reach'these points until about midday.?State Bureau.
