The Unpleasant Adventure of an Easy Going Tourist In Italy. Nothing could give a more adequate idea of the pass to which dueling has come on’ the European mainland than the story told by our Roman correspondent of an adventure that lately befell a foreigner on the island of Lido, near Venice. This easy going tourist, landably desirous of foiling all the social wheels within his reach and reducing friction toa minimum, beckoned to the waiter of a restaurant, and, fceing him before instead of after dinner, trustingly asked him what he could conscientiously reoommend. The knight of the napkin, who later.on appeared. in the character of a ‘knight of honor,’ instead of honestly replying, “I can-recommend you another restaurant,’’ said ‘‘an English bifftake,’’ which the tourist forthwith ordered. When it ‘appeared on thé ‘table and the hungry man attempted to ply his knife and fork, he discovered to his disgust that a dynamite bomb would be more to the purpose. He then rang for that unveracious waiter and asked him whether the proprietor was new to the place. ‘‘No, sir; his father was here before him. Came 85 years ago.’’. ‘‘Did the old man bring that wretched animal with him from which this ‘bifftake’ ‘was sculptured?’ he asked. But the waiter Was 4 sensitive soul and could liver complaint.
