ShreyyJNesY OF IL Sow,

Samuel G. Morris owns a HSaiicent
property on the Mississippi river, above
New Orleans, which he has spent thou
sands Of dollars in cultiyating rs flower

years after he began its improvement to
keep the pigs out. They would get in and
root up the finest work of his gardeners
In the south it is the same as horse steal
ing to shoot I. neighbours hog, no matter
what mischief the beast may commit. The
bloodiest of !euds have been started in the
south over the killing Of I. hog. So when
Mr.. Morris found that an old SOW had some
peculiar faculties for getting into his do
main and committing serious depredations
he set half II dozen negroes to watch he,
anil see bow she got in.
There was a stream running through
the place. At its entrances into the grounds
the harbctl wire fence that surrounded
them was stretched over the water ut it,
surface. One day the foreman on the place
discovered the hog coming down this
stream from the outside. When she
reached the wire fence she dived under the
water, came w on the other side. swan
ashore and began her roofing with grunt>
of satisfaction. Mr.. Morris himself saw
her turned out Of the grounds and saw her
go through the sumo operation to regain
entrance before he barred the waterway
against her-Troy Times.
