PRESIDENT OF BRAZIL DEAD
Sudden Passing Of Head Of South
American Republic.

Washington, June 14.-President
Penna of Brazil is dead. The news
was received in dispatch to the state
department from the American am.
bassador at Rio de Janeiro.
The death of DR.. Penna was evident
~ sudden. Other than dispatch re-
ceived from Rio de Janeiro saying
that he was gravely i'll and that as a
consequence the ministers had been
summoned to the palace, there has
been no intimation that he was in i'll
health The last report of his doings
concerned his message at the opening
Of the Brazilian congress May 4 and
hts refusal two weeks later to accept
the resignation Of the Brazilian min.
lister of finance.

SELL FOR SO PER HUNDRED
Highest June Price for Live Hoqs
Since 1882.

Since 1882.
Chicago, June 14.-The highest June
price for live hogs since 1882 was es-
tablished at the Union Stock Yards.
Best porkers sold at So per hundred
pounds. With the exception of 1902
this Is the highest price recorded for
any month since the Cudahy pork cor
ner In 1898, when live hogs sold at
$S.76 hundred weight.
The prevailing high prices are due
to unusually light receipts of live hogs
this spring at all Western packing
centers, the extremely high price of
grain last year prompting many farm
ers to. dispose of stock rather than
pay for feed stuff. Receipts of hogs
1T the nine leading markets of the
West were $4,000 head less than for
the corresponding day last week and
1850 less than the receipts year
ago. As a result of the scarcity of
hogs the price of provisions is now
the highest in many years.

Some Slam Woras.

A remarkable fact is that many slang
words have a classical origin. For
example, the word "mill,'' vulgarism
for fight, is traceable to the Greek
word "hamtlla," which means a COM
bat.
"Uncle," the affectionate term for a
pawnbroker, is derived from the Latin
'suncus," hook on which the article
pledged was hung.
To 60 before ''the beak'' is a distinct
reference to the old Roman custom Of
adjoining the platform from which JUS
tice dispensed with the beaks Of ships,
which platform came to be called the
rostrum, t. being the Latin for .
beak or prov.

MendeIssohn "A q Bow.

A quaint description of the boy
Mendelssohn is given us by one Dew
rfent: HE took his place among the
grown-up people in his child's dress,
a tight-fitting jacket, cut very low at
the neck, over which the wide trousers
were buttoned; into the slanting
pockets of these the little fellow liked
to thrust his hands, rocking his curly
head from side to side and shifting
restlessly from one foot to the other."

|PLAK TO BUILD RAILROAD
! FLORENCE TO GEORGETOWN.


GEORGETOWN, December ia
hundred thousand dollar scheme
is now under consideration by
the~citizens Of Georgetown and
Florence, which, if perfected,
and very likely it will be, will
mean another important step in
, the stride of commercial pro
eress of these two cities. The
scheme is the building OF a rail-
road between Florence and
Georgetown. This matter OF
late has been under discussion
by the citizens of both cities,
but the first step towards the
actual perfection OF such a road
has just recently been made
and it appears now that the
ones who are promoting the
plan are in dead earnest to con-
meet the two cities by direct
railway at an early>date. This
matter is of considerable i'm
portance to both cities, in that
Florence is desirous of connect
ing with a seaport town and
Georgetown cannot afford to
miss the opportunity of direct
connection with the railroad
centre.
HIM Aver, representing the
people OF Florence and the
chamber OF commerce, in a let
ter addressed to the people OF
Georgetown, writes in part as
follows:
"We, people OF Florence, have

railroad from Florence to the

weary waiting for capitalists
10 finance this enterprise. We
are going to hold Il meeting ii
the court house here on January
3 and at this meeting we are 60
ing to organize a construction
company to start the work Oft
Immediately. We propose to
issue township bonds and TO
have an act passed by the Leg
islature under which we can
utilize the chainSang for grad
ing. The estimated cost of the
road will be about 500, ,OO0.'
A large d el eg tion from
Georgetown will attend the
meeting to be held in Florence
on January 3, 1910, composed OF
the energetic workers of the
city, and according to the senti-
ment OF the public here, as we'll
as in Florence, there will be no
trouble in raising the funds nee
essary to build this road. The
proposed road will pass through
the greater portion OF Florence,
williamsburg and Georgetown
counties, and will be between e0
and 50 miles in length, according
to the route. The road will, of
course, touch the principal
towns between the cities, and
this may make the route even
longer than the above estlma-
