WILD Hoes. "A few months ago Mr..
Anthony Fuhrmau, of Tyrone township
Perry county, bought three haifgrown hogs
from Mr.. Morrow, of the same township.
The hogs had been ranging on the noun
tains last fall and were wild as deer. The
Bloomfield Adrocate says, Mr.. Fuhr-
man took the animals home and secured
them in pen. Some weeks ago they
broke ont of the pen and started for the
mountains, followed by several persons
with dogs. The hogs, in crossing Sher-
mans creek, were followed in boat by one
Of the party, whom one of the animals jump
ed into the boat and drove the person out
into the water. The hogs gave battle to
the dogs, and threw one of them several
yards. One of the hogs was finally killed,
one secured after running under bridge and
standing az bay ready to attack both men
and dogs, and the third escaped to the
mountain and has not been seen since.

BERGH AND BARNUM.

Bergh is after Barnum. Bergh says the
hurdle-racing in Barnum's Hippodrome is
cruel and dangerous, and he sites the fol-
lowing facts: The performance at the
HippOdrome commenced on the 18th of
April, and up to the 18th ult., the follow
ing casualties have occurred Miss Hess,
arm broken by being thrown from her
horse at the same time two other ladies
were thrown, but not hurt. Miss Lewis,
hurt by being struck with the pole of q
chariot. Miss Alice Costeneigra, hurt by
being thrown from the racer Castro, and
having a horse jump on hre Castro was
instantly killed, but the lady has since re-
ported for duty. Frank Dooley, leg bro
ken while riding an elephant race, and
death ensued. Mrs. Anna Davis, collar
bone broken by the horse Spot falling with
her over hurdle, and dead.
But just as Bergh got ready to move on
the great Snowman, the entire concern was
moved to Boston, where, there being no
Bergh, horses may fall with men and wo-
men as much and as often as they choose.
l rather believe that Barnum started the
report as an advertisement. People will
go long way to see a horse fall oD It's
rider. PIETRO.
