A Casi, Basis,


Bonifaces are more subject to imposition
from penniless travellers than any other
class of purveyors, and it must be admitted
also meet with less sympathy when they
are taken in. If what we hear of Vallejo
landlords be true, they must have suffered
q heap Of martyrdom from itinerant Bohe-
mians before they resorted to the present
ingenious measure of self-defense. II
seems that the rule adopted there is to pay
for dinner Immediately upon the delivery
of the plate Of soup. The other day a
fraudulent genius, having unsuccessfulfy
exploited one hotel, boldly entered the
Washington and called for dinner. He
was astonished to see the waiter approach
him with a plate of soup in one hand, a
towel in the other, and large family
syringe under his arm. The waiter laid
the plate of soup in front of the customer,
and significantly placed the palm of his
hand under the nose of the hungry man.
As our friend had not as yet tackled his
meal, he modestly inquired the meaning
of" the open hand
l"Pay in advanced p was the terse and
peremtory reply of the waiter.
"Can't you wait till l get through my
my meal, first 2"
"No, sir. Our rules arc positive. On
delivery of the soup plunge down the
cash. ~
Singular promptitude," he muttered.
Then reddening up with natural indigna-
tion. said he:
II suppose, if / don't pay you, you'll
brain me with that bludgeon pump OF
yours p
sa'.Not at all, sir. Through this instru-
ment we. secure our business on cash
basis. Your money, if you pleased"
He thought he had the dead-wood on
the soup anyhow, and dipped his spoon
for the first mouthful. Before the spoon
reached the broth, however, he was trans
fixed at seeing the. waiter coolly introduce
the point of his syringe into the plate, and
pulling the suction handle out to its fullest
extent, the soup suddenly disappeared,
leaving his plate as empty as his stomach.
He turned around, but the waiter had
passed to another customer, and our friend
left the establishment in disgust.
