Had Fun at Their Expense
Last week some at the fun-loving
youths and near-youths about town
induced several of the young men to
try and acquire a big, luscious water
melon which grew in a nearby field,
and while the boys were searching
for the melon, the crowd in waiting
fired off Fome guns and at Hie same
time threw beans at the intruders,
s-triking them in the face, and affording-the
sensation of being pep
pered with shot, but minus the in
jurious effect of the latter. The boys,
who were not aware of the Joke per
petrated at their expense, showed a

thought they possessed. No particu

v as enjoyed by all those "in" on the
