Swindling as a Fine Art

Two fellows, whose money was almost
entirely expended, determined that
wealthy hotel keeper should be the
means of replsnishing their purses,
Accordingly, one Of them giving NJ
what money he had TO the othei, en-
tered the premises Of the selected vac.
tim, while his confederate kept out Of
sight. The visitor inquired for the
landlord, to whom h" propounded the
query: "CAn you give me good DIN
ncrT OF course the resources OF the
establishment wers equal to the de
mand, and in n few minutes the good
dinner was served and duly discussed.
Then came the question Of payment /,
but the guest had no money, and pointed
out TO his host that, had he possessed
the "needful,' he should have ordered
what he had consumed in the usual
manner; that he had SIMPLY sought in
formation concerning the ability OF the
house and the inclination Of its owner
to supply him with good dinner, aud
was much obliged for the same. A po-
licsman was called in, but his decision
leaned toward the impecunious dinner
il might be considered debt, but the
criminal law could do nothing The
guest departed. The landlord ground
his teeth. Not long after this number
two arrived the query "Can you give
ms yood dinner ~ = A smile of terrible
meaning crossed the landlords face
"Yes, yes,' he replied, stake seat. "
He FASTENED out and returned with a
bucket of water, which with his own
hands he dashed over the applicant for
good dinn1r; who thereupon jumped
to his feet and demanded an explanation
of such extraordinary treatment. "Ha!

he glared about for something where

-tha ha you fellows can't fool me
twice in the same way" The visitor
appeared astounded the irate landlord
appeared anxious to kick the visitor out.
A violent scene occurred. The would

and robber. o The officer Of the law
was again summoned. Each made
charges against the other. The infu-
rated host called in his solicitor. The
visitor declared that be was perfectly
able and willing to pay for what he re-
quired 7; exhibited his money, threatened
proceedings for, assault and battery, and
vowed he would bring his action for

note and document were written on Off

newspaper was read at the Vatican there
was, of course, great astonishment. The
Pope sent tor the editor and was about
to admoDish him severely when the doc

produced. His Holiness then ordered
an examination to be made by experts,
