TIE Italian fashion of dealing with
butchers IS not much in vogue here.
Ii is Just being introduced in BROOKLYN.
Andrew Mcla. lately arrived from Sici-
", set the style. He ran up Il bill for
| meat until the butcher would trust him
no longer. Then he told the butcher
that he never meant to pay, meantime
lingering the edge of n Stilctto with pc
culiar significance. Subsequently he
and cxtorted a loan of S25; finally he
made a dead rush ut the butcher at 4
picnic, and tried to cut his heart out,
! merely because further advances of
money were refused. Now the Sicilian
is under 81 200 bondto keep the peace,
but he has suffered no further punish
mcnt; and, most interesting of all, he
has not paid the bill.
