Wounded by Maddened Boar.

Newcastle, June 18— Zed Bullen, a well-known farmer south, of the city, was injured seriously at the home of John Rothrock, a neighbor, by a maddened boar. In attempting to manage the animal Bullen was thrown to the ground. The boar attacked him and before it could be driven off had ripped open several inches of flesh on Bullen’s right leg with its tusks and otherwise injured him. A large number of stitches were required to close the jagged wounds.
