WILD BOAR GOOD FIGHTER
Sport of "PIg-sticking" by No Means
One to Be Enjoyed by
MolIycoddIe.

The common hog is an animal so
well known to every one that it needs
no description. 1t was found by the
earliest navigators domesticated in
many of the islands of the southern
seas: 1t appeared, also, to be a native
of most parts of Europe and Asia, its
flesh being used as an article of food
by many nations. The skin and bris.
ties are of great value.
The chase of the wild boar is one of
the most exciting sports of Europe or
of India, particularly when carried on
without the aid of the rife. the sports
man being on horseback, armed only
with a log spear.
This sport is known among the mi
tiated as "pig sticking" and is a most
dangerous pursuit, not only from the
fact that, the animal is very fierce and
is armed with tremendous tusks,
which it Is very ready to use, but be-
cause the sport is generally carried
on in rough and broken ground, and at
headlong speed, when one false step
of the horse may bring the rider to the
ground. n leave him at the mercy Of
the enraged animal.
When wounded the boar almost al
ways turns and attempts to disable
the horse by inficting a tearing wound
with it's tusks; it then bolts in another
direction. But when fairly brought
to bay, the danger of attacking the
animal is very great; its eyes CLEAN
with savage fury, foam flies from its
open laws, and though always van
auished in the long run, it does not
surrender it's life without the 1ercest
| resistance.
