HORSE KILLS BOAR
IN FIERCE BATTLE
its HoOfs Prove More Effective weap-
ons Than Tusks of the Hog

:. DANBURY, Conn.,, Sept. 17-Wu-
liam Pinckney, of Brookfield, kept big
boar in a pen in a corner of a pasture
near his barn. A valuable horse was
turned into lot to Craze last night
The boar resented this and repeatedly
tried to break out of the pen. This it
eventually succeeded in doing, and i'm
mediately attacked the horse, Selling it
by one of it's hind legs.
The horse shook off the boar after
kicking it many times. The boar con-
t1nued the aggressor, biting and tearing
the legs of the horse, which fought
vigorously with the full power of its
boots. Tile fight lasted more than an
hour. 4i O.
The squeals of the Infatuated animals
were heard by farm hand, who sum
moned Mr.. Pickney and others and
tney went to the pasture and with pitch
forks succeeded In parting the lighting
animals. The boar died from its
wounds few minutes later and the
horse, seriously injured, was taken To
the barn. 1t is not expected that the
horse will ever recover its usefulness.
