LINCOLN PENNIES.
The First Specimens of the New
Coinage to Reach Sumter Received
at the Item Office.

Mr.. H. G. Osteen, Of the Daily
Item, received this morning a pack
age containing several of the Lincoln
pennies, Of which so much has been
printed in the newspapers during the
past few days. The pennies were
sent by Willie Cox, formerly an en-
ploye of the Daily Item, but now
working in Washington, who writes
that he secured a few of them
through friend who is employed in
the treasury department and that
they are scarce and hard to obtain as
everybody is trying to get them. The
following from the Washington Post
Is of interest in connection with the
controversy over the insertion of the
artists initials in the die for the
pennies:
Secretary MacVeagh will not res
cind his order directing the reduction
of the initials Of Victor D. Brenner
on the Lincoln penny to one letter,
despite the protest of Mr.. Brenner.
Mr.. Brenner based his protest on
the promise of former Secretary Cor
telyou regarding the initials. Mr..
Cortelyou does not remember having
made any such promises, he states.
1t Is announced at the Treasury
Department that the new die for
the penny with the single initial
will be made Immediately, but that
the pennies now on hand with the
three initials will be distributed.
Mr.. Brenner, the artist, is a Rus
sian, and Is we'll known in New York.
He has received the congratulations
of his fellow artists on the excellence
of the design for the new penny.

Speaking of his greatest anticipa-
lions on the trip, Mr.. Paup says that
he has no desire to see the kings,
dukes and other nobility, but wants to
see the common people Of the old
world and that he will get out into the
country in order to crafty this desire.
He wants to see how they farm, how
they care for and raise live stock, how
they slaughter their cattle and hogs
and how they do ordinary everyday
things. He will visit England, Ger
