WIGGINS BROTHERS, HUNTERS.

Killed Two Bears, Two Deers and a Panther This Season. Bill and Dick Wiggins have been taking animal hunts together for sev-enty-five years. They are brothers. Bill is 86 and Dick vis 84. They have made their home in Knox for many years.

They returned a few days ago from their annual hunting trip to the Big Thicket, bringing back with them two flat bears, two deer and a panther. Despite their age they are still as spry as the average man of middle age. Their hair is just beginning to turn gray and neither of them ever wore glasses.

Bill Wiggins killed the smaller bear. They killed two deer apiece, using up two of the animals in camp and bringing back the other two with them. They do their own cooking in camp and get the keenest enjoyment out of their outdoor experience. They are also great fishermen, and during the summer season spend much of their time along the streams of thia region angling for baaa and other fish.

How They Got Out

Uncle Ephrab* had iwo hogs, which tie kept in a pen at the rear end of hie little lot They were of the “razorback" variety, and although they were fed bountifully with kitchen waste, it seemed impossible to put any fat on their attenuated frames. One morning when he went out to feed them they were not there. They had disappeared, leaving no clue to the manner in which they had made their escape. "What’s the matter, Uncle BphT" inquired a neighbor, noticing the deep dejection with which the old man was looking down into the empty pen. "My hawgs is done gone, sah," he answered. "Stolen T" “No, -sah, I don’t see no signs dat anybody tuck ’em.” “Did they climb out the topT’ “No, dey couldn’t 'a* done dat" “How do you think they got awayT" "Well, sah," said Uncle Ephraim, ’pinion is dat dem hawgs kind o* raised delrselves up on aidge an’ crops through a crack.”
