Three young men. or youths, of good families, were arrested this week on a charge of carrying pistols. The case against them WAS oi the "open and shut" order. and the boys parents en- tered pleas of guilty, and they were assessed $50 each and costs. This dis
 graceful practice of boys carrying pis- tois and discharging them in the cor poratioa. or elsewhere. is inexcusable and should be stopped. .-Searcy Beacon.

FIREwATER's SHOT.
A Story of Adventure on Indian River,
Florida.

A. H. Ford in the Chicago Inter Ocean
In two weeks after his arrival from the
North Frank Mason was as much at home
on Jupiter inlet and the ST. Johns river as
any boy in South Florida.
In fact, Frank and his mother lived on
the river, for near the shore of the
lagoon, under the tall palm trees, what
had once been a fat-bottomeG river
steamer was drawn up, and this was his
home Its state rooms were occupied by
the citizens of Orangeville, and the old
steamer was by long odds the best hotel
in town.
But Frank was much more interested
in a shallow sl1iff manned by an old Semi
mole Indian, which communicated with
the low, sandy beach. The guests of the
floating hotel had but to call to ''Old
Firewater'' at any hour Of the day or
night and a moment later the swish of his
paddle would be heard and the skiff come
shooting out from little creek.
Frank was not long in discovering that
Firewater was no talker, but he also dis
covered what older heads had not no.
ticed-that F'irewater was good listener.
He would sit mutely for hours hearing
Frank tell how they hunted moose in the
Maine woods, or how people in a cold
climate lived. Sometimes the old Semi
mole would show his appreciation by
taking his little passenger out across the
sandy ride that divides Indian river from
the ocean and teaching him TO fish for big
game. Firewater seldom condescended
to speak. Once, when Frank asked him
TO teach him how TO swim the old In
dams eyes glistened without a word he
ungirdled himself and sprang in the
water of the lagoon. Frank was soon in
a condition to follow, and after that the
old Indian and the young New Yorker
sported together in the water daily until
Frank became almost as expert as his
teacher Sometimes they crossed the
bar, and, anchoring the skiff, swan out
into the warm water of the ocean; but at
such times the old Indian would keep his
piercing black eyes strained on the dis
lance, constantly turning them in every
direction.
One day when an odor of watermelon
suddenly floated on the breeze he turned
swiftly with grunt and struck out for
the shore.
What is the matter" asked Frank,
but in lieu Of reply Firewater pointed
over his shoulder, and Frank saw with a
shudder the tips of q sharks fins not far
behind. Safe in the skin. F'irewater
broke silence for almost the first time in
their acquaintance. He warned the
young northerner never to go in swim
ming alone, especially upon the ocean
side Of the reef.
Winter merged into early spring. As
the floating hotel became more and more

Twice the horny reptile dragged itself
after the naked boy up and down the lit
tie strip of sand, which was even now be-
ginning to grow smaller.
Once a great sweep of the armored tail
almost touched his body. If it had struck
him he would have sailed through the air
and landed in the jaws Of the patient
shark.
An hour passed, and now the alligator
seemed content to lie still and follow his
victim with his wicked little eyes; nor
was the patience Of the shark at all eX-
hausted, and as the island grew smaller
and smaller they both drew nearer aud
nearer.
In vain the poor little northerner called
for help. There was no one in sight AS
he looked for the last time he thought he
saw a small spcck on the water of the
lagoon, but the setting sun blinded his
eyes and he dared not hope He moved a
foot nearer the watching alligator, away
from the waiting shark; tears tricklcd
down his cheeks.
Suddenly the heavy, scaly monster
turned slightly and moved forward. The
space was so narrow now that the long,
lath-lil1e tail dipped into the water Of the
ocean, and as it touched the waves there
was splash and scene of wild struggle
The Understanding shark, hungry for
his supper, had seized upon the alligators
tail. The great saw-like teeth sunk
through the thick armored hide, and
with a bark like dog the enraged reptile
turned and slid off into the water
For several minutes the breakers were
dyed red with blood Never for a mo-
ment did the tenacious shark release his
grip until with a mighty contortion the
agile alligator bent his body double and
seized the soft stomach Of the shark in
his immense Jaws. Then the struggle be-
gan in earnest, and the two strange Great
ures rolled over and over in the ocean,
but nothing distinct could Frank see
through the churning foam.
At last all was quiet. Then heavy
body arose to the surfrce, and the angry
head of the victorious alligator turned in
every direction in search of his victim.
Suddenly the two bright little eyes lit
upon the trembling boy, who now stood
ankle deep in water, paralyzed with fear
and unable to move. There was quick
movement and the glittering eyes and
ugly shout of the saurian seemed to fairly
cleave the water. Frank closed his eyes
and fell forward, for his trembling legs
refused longer TO support his body There
was a singing sound in his ears-then a
roar of thunder split the universe, a
bright fash filled all the air, and he be-
came unconscious.
When Frank next opened his eyes Fire
water was bending over him, rife in
hand.
"Ough - said the old Seminole, as he
lifted the limp and helpless boy into his
skiff to wait while he removed the skin
from the alligator
white boy min Injun mex time, " was
all Firewater said to his young friend.
Nor would he explain how he happened to
be on hand just at the right moment.
Frank has never forgotten the old
Indian; and now every year, when spring
approaches, big consignment of ammu-
milton finds its way to Indian river that
makes a pair of very black eyes sparkle
with true huntsman's delight.
