bh0GS ABOUT STEADY
Receipts Light Which Were
Expected on Saturday
TOP PRICE WAS S485
This Is the Only Market TO
Protect Shippers

Hog receipts were light yesterday, but
no surprise was expressed at this, because
light receipts are the rule for Saturdays.
The only car load of hogs sold was one
that arrived late Friday night The buy
ers quoted the market at steady to strong
ard they were present TO buy whatever
came. The buyers left the yards early,
but told the commission men that they
would take all the hogs that arrived be-
twee nthat time and Monday morning at
yesterdays prices, and at weights at time
of arrival
a good many of the trains that bring
hogs 10 this market come late in the
night and this course has been adopted
by The packing houses to protect the
Slippers who patronize this market. It
is probably the only hog market in this
country in which shippers are thus pro-
tected against decline in the market
aller their hogs arrive.

ONE TOWN IS ISOLATED.
Section of bridge Over Broad River
in south Carolina Gives Way
Fifty Lives Lost.

Charlotte, n. c., June 9.-Develop-
r-,,.ts in the devastated mill settle
ments at Pacolet and Clifton on the
Pacolet river in South Carolina do not
lessen the horrors of the situation
there although it is believed that the
loss of life will not exceed fifty per-
sons. The destruction of property by
the flood was far reaching, and even
vet a number Of mill points, where 1t
is feared damage has been done, can
not be heard from on account of the
prostration of telephone and tele-
graph wires.
Union, s. c., is isolated. The Lock
hart mills, below Pacolet, for whose
safety fears had been expressed, are
only slightly damaged. At eight
o'clock Sunday morning 2oo-foot
section of the Southern railway
bridge over Broad river between Spar
taaburg and Columbia gave way,
stopping traffic. The Southern
bridges at Lawson's fork, Middle
Tiger and Enoree river are gone, and
several bridges that still stand are I'M
safe.
Though the great flood of water is
passing on to the ocean laden with
debris of every description and the
swollen streams are subsiding in the
Piedmont region, the loss of property
is increasing, and conservative estl-
mate places the property loss at not
less than $3,5o0,000. During Sunday
dead bodies were washed ashore here
and there, and occasionally dismem-
hered limb would float to the banks.

He was not from Mississippi, and
he didn't come from Arkansas. either"
said a man who likes the funny side
of things. He came from Tennessee,
and-whisper it not in Gath-he came
from the city on the Cumberland, the
same which is sometimes called the
Athens of the South -Nashville-the
capital of the State. His name shall
be nameless for the purposes of this
warn. He was fresh from the region OF
the gurgling cascades, and his cheeks
were aglow with the rosy efrects OF
the julep and other things of fame in
the middle section of the State from

rich, rare purple Of the violet. He
was loyal to the colors of Tennessee.
He was stopping around at the Den

namely, that he could not sleep

He Is Only a Printer.

HE is only a printer" Such was
the sneering remark of leader IN
circle of aristocracy-codf1sh quality.
Who was the Earl of Stanhope? He
was only a printer. What was Prince
Edward William and Prince Napo-
leon? Proud to call themselves print
ers. The Czar of Russia, the Crown
Prince of Prussia and the Duke OF
Battenberg were printers, and the
Emperor of China worked in private
printing office almost every day. Will
liam Caxton, the father of English
literature, was a practical printer.
What were j. P. Morris, N. P. Willis,
James Parker, Horace Greeley,
Charles Dickens, James Buchanan,
Simon Cameron, Schuyler Colfax?
Printers all, and practical ones. Mark
Twain, Amos J. Cummings, Bret
Harte, William Dean Howells, Joel
Chandler Harris and Opie P. Read
were plain, practical printers, as were
Artemus Ward, Petroleum V. Nasty,
and Sut Lovingood. Senator Plumb.
of Kansas, and James j. Hogg. ex'
governor of Texas, were all printers.
and the leader of science and philoso-
ply in his day made it his boast that
he was Jour printer. In fact, thou
sands of the most brilliant minds in
this country are to be found In large
cities and towns. 1t is not every one
that can be printer-brains are ab-
solutely necessary-Century.
