(Scripps News Association)
Washington, Feb. 26. The tamest
efforts of the members of Congress from
the Pacific coast, coupled with the dread
ful lesson taught by the Valencia disaster
will bring about the authorization of at
least one first class revenue cutter for use
about Puget Sound, during the present
session of Congress; and ' will in time
bring about the building of an adequate
fleet Just at present the Republican
leaders are shouting "Economy" so
so loudly that they cannot hear the needs
of the country spoken in an ordinary tone
of voice, and the Coast may deem itself
lucky to get at least one new ship to
guard the dangerous rocks of Washington.
In a report Just made by Congressmen
Cushman of Washington from the Com
mittee on Interstate and Foreign Com
merce, which has charge of the bill
authorizing the revenue cutter, ; he "says
This vessel is needed to replace the re
venue cutter Grant, now performing
service in that district a vessel that is
not now suitable on account of age and
the effects of continuous service to pro
perly perform duties devolving upon a
vessel stationed' in those waters. The
numerous gales prevailing in this vicinity
and the large amount of shipping con- j
stantly passing along this coast to and
from tne important ports situated on
Puget Sound, render it necessary that a
first class sufficient vessel should be
available to render immediate assistance
when required. There are about 1,100
documented vessels of the United States
in the district of Puget Sound, a large
number being steamers, and these re
quire constant supervision and inspection
in the enforcement of the navigation and
customs laws. The vessel proposed will
be a strong factor contributing to the
laws."

Dr. George M. Gould in the "Medical

bring this wrong to public notice. It

If the editor of every paper In the cen
tral west will republish these lines there
is no question but what Dr. S. L. Byers,
Seeleyville. Ind., will recover tiis little son
who was stolen from his home one yeai
year ago last May. Dr. Byers has spen
is entire resources in search for his child
and unless the big-hearted members of
the press come to his assistance his son
will grow up an outlaw and an outcast
among the lowest people of the earth. It
is a cause that should appeal to everyone
and no father reading these lines can do
so without a quickening of the heart and
sympathetio throb. It le believed that
this article is reprinted In the newspapers
it will form an .endless ohaln that will
uncover the loet boy's ooncealment and
return him to his distracted parents. In
doing this the profession of journalism
will be fulfilling one of its highest destinies.
Publishers whose circulation touch the
Wabash, Ohio and Mississippi valleys are
especially requested to reproduce this
story of ths lost child, as Dr. Byers be
lieves his boy is now in some boathouse
waiting tq take the road in the spring.
There is a reward of $800 awaiting any
information that will lead to the boy' s
recovery. No questions will be asked and
if the abdugtor himself would deliver the
boy to his parent he would not be molest
ed.

Tnis appeal is indicted originally by a
publisher who saw Dr. Byers only once,
has no personal interest in his quest other
than the bond of sympathy that makes
the world akin, and is inspired from the
jelief that the lost boy c n only be found
through the united effort of the country
press, of which he is proud to be a member.
The following is a description of the
lost boy:
r'' DESCRIPTION
Richmond Byers. if alive, was six years
old last July, is of light complexion, has I
gray eyes, left eye noticeably crossed, has
a small V-shaped nick in the edge of left J
ear, has a sharp chin and a narrow pro- J
jecting forehead. He is rather small from
his age and is unusually bright and in- 1
telligent, taking after the manner of a 1
boy much older. 1 1
Dr. Byers has searched among the rov- ,
ing bands that frequent the United States '
and believes that hie eon can be found
among traveling junk dealers, so-called
horse tradere or movers. He does not j
think the boy wae stolen by genuine gip
sies. He thinks he was taken by a wan
dering band that used him for the pur
pose of begging in the towns along the
route. Times, New Harmony, Ind.

1904 the aggregate was 1,953,748 cases
and 1 6,407. Being reduced to cases, the
figures are 2,059.119 for 1906 against
2,012,928 in 1904. While there is us
ually a loss of 64,751 gaaei of eanned
salmqn., the total output for the year
shows a gain of the equivalent of 46,1 9 1

total value of the produat amounts to $6,

' NEVER BETTER
One of the realistic scenes in "Hooligan
in New York" which wilt be seen for the
first time In La Qrando at Steward's
opera house, Tuesday, Feb. 27, is the
actual reproduction of an opium joint in
Mott Street. In the heart of New York's
Chinatown. The scene shows a Chinese
laundry and back of It the den where
wretched victims of the drug inhale the
poppy fumes. Mr. Kenyon, under, whose
supervision this scene was produced, was
formerly an attache of the United States
legation at Hong Kong. While there he
learned to speak the language of the
country and on his return to New York he
made a careful study of the Chinese
quarter of that city. Hit ability to con
verse with them in their native tongue
gave him opportunities which few white
men of education have secured, and he
has staged a scene which is thrillingly
realistic and correct in every detail.
