LIGHTNING KILLS WILD BOARS
Five Out of sis Imported from the
Black Forest struck Together
in Pike County.

Five of six wild boars imported from
the Black Forest in Germany at cost
of $i00 each were lately killed by light
ming at Porter's Lake, Pike county, Pa.
They were brought over by Weissbrod
& Hess, cf Philadelphia, and were in.

was proposed to turn their young loose

Sun.
The animals had only just arrived
and were still in their boxes, which
were piled under tree. When the

ed, striking the tree and running down
it to the animals. One in box on top
of the others escaped, but those below
were instantly killed. It Is said their
places will be supplied by other impor.
tations.
The propagation of wild boars in this
region Is not a new experiment. Some
wears ago Otto Plock, a wealthy broker
of New York and London, whose sum.
mer home was on the west side of the
Shawangunk mountain, not far from
Port Jervis, turned out several wild
boars in his mountain park. For time
they thrived until at last they broke
through the inclosure and committed
depredations on the neighboring
farms. The farmers turned out with
dogs and guns, but were never ablet to
capture any Of them. They were hunt
ed day and night. They finally took up
their abode in Sullivan county, where
hunters tried in vain to kill them.
Judge w. II. Crane, of this place, broth
er of the late Stephen Crane, was the
only person who successfully brought
down one of these wild boars. What has
become of the remainder of the ami
mails is mystery, as they have dsap-
peared. 1t is believed they all died.

Last Monday the forest fires got
quite bad in this vicinity. There was
big fire out near Rice creek and the
heavy wind drove it towards the Croker
neigh orhuod and there was consider
able fear for the farm buildings in that
neighborhood and quite crowd from
the village went out there to fight fire.
Fortunately the wind went down before
the fire got close enough to be at all
dangerous and Sthe shower that night
stopped it's further progress. Frank
Carley's place near little st. German
had close call but he escaped with
the loss of pile of fence posts. Wilt
am Tellefson's place was also surroun-
ded by fire but he succeeded in keeping
it from his buildings. The heavy rain
Tuesday night and Wednesday COM
pletely extinguished the fires and re-
moved all danger from them for this
season.
