THE TALK OF THE DAY.

An editorial writer of "The Boston Herald" re-
lates his experiences in one Of the famous res
taurants in Place st. Mark. in Venice, where the
Chcago's men lately got into trouble. He says
that when his bill presented it contained
items enough which were not ordered to double
its amount. and that when he protested against
paying a was raised and the police were sum-
moned. and that any opposition his part would
have involved the risk of resisting the police
which is the offence charged against the Chicago
people. He had to pay to avoid trouble. and
thinks 1t is regular dodge in this place to bleed
foreigners.

Speaking Of the possibility of using horse meat
because Of the high price Of beef. the editor OF
THE Milwaukee Wisconsin says: 1.-The horse Is
the cleanest Of all animals and therefore his meat
is not unhealthful. We have had some experience
in horse beef and know what 1t is. In 1870 were
shut up for two months in the siege OF Paris. and
horse beef served up by not few OF the
restaurants under the title OF 'flllet de mouton."

M Read, who was our consul general at the time
in Paris, told that he lived during the whole
siege on horse beef 1t satisfied hunger but was
not nourshing diet. That is really the only
objection horse meat The animal before being
slaughtered carefully inspected by veter-
marian. and if pronounced free from disease 1t
sold TO the public II is strange there should
