SPRING HILL ITEMS.

The farmers in this section of the
country, have become very much attach
ed to the Berkshire breed OF hogs, and
other breeds are neglected. They have
but little confidence in white hogs,
think they are not hardy, etc, but Mr..
E. w. Buford, beyond Spring Hill,
thinks differently, and last autumn
sent to VIM. n. Perry, of Nashville, n.
Y, and bought two beautiful Cheshires,
the first, we believe, ever brought to
Williamson or Maury county. Mr.. Bu>
ford is highly pleased with the Ches-
hires, and although he has thorough
bred Berkshires, he believes the former
are superior. They are of quicker
growth he thinks, and giow larger.
Whether they will grow larger, howev-
er, remains to be seen. He thinks the
Cheshires are as hardy as the Berk-
shires. He will import more in the
coming Spring. Wehave seen a testimo-
NAL of a New Yorker to the effect that
one of his Cheshires, at the age of Is
months, dressed 523 pounds. Another
says his dressed 400 at months old.

A Thief.

\ few days ago a man went to one OF
the ministers of this city, gave his name
as George Wilson, of Athens, Ala, and
represented that he was Frustrated by
chronic sickness, and unable to work.
He asked the man of God to give him a
a letter of recommendation to his flock,
so that he might beg from them. The
preacher gave him letter to physi-
clan in the city, telling him to examine
Wilson, and il he found him unable to
work, let him (the Preacher know it,
and he would help the man. The man
came to the Doctors Office, and probably
finding ii open, went in and took pair
of pants and fine vest. He sold the
pants to Willis Jones, col, and the vest
to Frank Pillow, col. At night he took
room at the Franklin House, and be-
ing in a room with L. p. Eskew, broke
open that gentleman's satchel and trunk,
and took therefrom tools and clothes.
Bob Guest found out how matters stood,
and soon put officers John Latta and
Friel. on his track. They went to the
Depot. and waited till the 1913 train
came, but he came not. They finally
found Wilson in Willis Jones' shoe
shop, trying to sell the clothes, and put
him in Jail He was tried before Esq.
Clear, and bound over to the next term
of the Circuit Conrt. He could not give
bail and had to go to Jail.
