Some time last summerWilliam Kyle,
farmer, residing near Fair Hin, this
county, missed one of his largest hogs,
weighing $50 pounds. After searching
for 1t for some time he gave Il up as
lost. A few days ago he cut the end off
OF the straw stack and was surprised to
see the hog come forth alive but some
what thinner. 1t is supposed the straw
had slipped down on ii, and in its
efforts to get out had worked its way
into the stack. Upon examination It
was found that the hog had eaten its
way for good length in an upward
direction. The actual time of its In
prlsoment was three months and four
days.

The grip appears to be more epidemic
than last year. In some Of the towns
further down the eastern shore it Is re-
ported very severe. Fears are entertain
ed by physicians that it may result in
pneumonia. The disease is not by any
means q stranger in this county, and
In some parts it Is quite prevalent. The
Baldwin Mills near Elkton have been
compelled to shut down temporarily
because so many of their employees are
sick with the grip, which prevails to
quite an extent In that neighborhood,
DR.. McKnesey the celebrated snecialist
who was sent by Queen Victoria TO
attend the late German Emperor, pro-
nounces the cause of grip to be rotten
nerves.
