Some Hog Story, This.

Princeton, Ind., Nov. 18.—J. E. Toop, near Ft. Branch, says he has the most intelligent hog in Hoosierdom. Recently, in spite of tight fences, a hog bad been getting into a corn field. Mr. Toop was puzzled. The other day he arrived Jbst in time to see the hog, some distance away, start on a dead run for the fence. At the fence a big wild grapevine hung low- from a tall tree. As the hog reached the tree it leaped up and caught the vine. The momentum started it swinging and the hog continued to swing until it was going high enough to carry it over the fence on the corn field side. There it let go and dropped safely. Mr. Toop said he would not have believed the incident possible had he not witnessed it.
