ROBBERY IN PARIS CAFES. No Priees on Bills of Far*, snd Wartor* Impose on Guests. M I tell you.” said the returued European traveler, taking up the bill of fare, “it's a good deal of relief to get to a place where one can know the exact cost of things to eat and drink. When on the other side I narrowly escaped nervous prostration because of the latitude in the prices of items on the menu. Paris is about the worst offender among European cities in this respect. In restaurant after restaurant there prices are omitted from the bill of fare simply to give an opportunity to rifle the pockets of the unwary. Take my advice and have as close an approach to an Ironclad agreement as possible with your garcon regarding the demnirion total’ of your meal before giving your order. If you don t. there's trouble and pecuniary loss ahead. The waiter, with the connivance of the proprietor of the case, will do all he can to Impose upon you. “One tragic story that 1 can vouch for may be of interest to American tourists. It shows one variety of restaurant robbery in Paris Illustrating Incidentally French ingenuity. An American woman gave a small luncheon at a well known place to a half docen friends. She bad no intention of making it an elaborate affair. She knew French ways and had a careful estimate made of the cost of the repast ordered. After the second course she notice-1 that the waiters were pressing upon her guests delicacies for which she had not stipulated, and she observed. too. that a point was made of asking each person if she would have some of this, that or the other thing. Os course the viands were accepted. These extras were succeeded by others, the poor hostess not being sble (or felt she was unable, which amounts to the same thingi to stem the tide rapidly overwhelming her pocketbook. When she had a stormy session with the proprietor she could get no satisfaction. The things were offered; they were eaten. ‘Of a surety, madime had ordered them, else they would not have been served. It is Impossible that madame would wish to have consequences most unpleasant? She wisely paid the bill, but the experience cost her dear. “So, you see, holdups are not confined to our beloved country. In fact I think that our polite contemporaries over the Atlantic know things about the game about which our desperadoes are In entire ignorance.”—New York Press.
