the highest social circles the arts of the Hber

sort tried his arts in the wrong place last night
and met with mis- deserts. The wife of one Of
the noted merchants of Pennsylvania avenue has
long been annoyed by the impertinence of one of
these foreign dudes. Yesterday he was especially
impertinent. He followed her several squares,
and at last addressed her an insulting remark.
The woman, by entering a store on the pretense
of making purchase, succeeded in sending
messenger for her husband, while the dude
masher waited outside. He did not have long
to wait The husband came with no weapon but
his fists and two-pound can of preserved meat
which he had snatched from a counter The
dude received lesson which will probably teach
him to reform his manners He was repeatedly
struck with the two pound can, and his tace was
badly cut The irate husband and the diplomatic
dude We're both arrested The diplomatic pleaded
his privilege. The husband was released when
the facts became known. The police authori-
ties refuse to reveal the name of the dude diplo
mate.
