A GREAT sWINDLE
Exposed by the Sharp Eyed Utitsd
States Postal Authorities.

WAsHINGToN, Aug. 3.-The post office
department has succeeded, it is believed,
in rendering abortive the attempts of the
Home Fsscinator Company. of Montreal,
Canada, to yictimize many cfedulous
Americans. This concern. it is stated,
publishes . monthly journal called the
"Home Fascinator." The company adver-
tised four prizes, to be awarded to the
persons sending in the hrgest correct
list of words constructed from the
letters contained in the words 1.-THE Worlds
Fair" The prizes were said to be awarded
June %. 1891, the first prize consisting Of
$1,000 in god, the second . grand piano
valued at S4OO, and the forth . sewing
mschipg worth SG5. A. to the third prize,
IA silver tea set, gold-lined, valued .,
S120'. The concern adopted the scheme
Of notifying by letter Thousands Of persons
in the United States that they
had won the third prize in The con-
test; and requested that ihey should
remit - 80 to pay for packiog and
shipping the prize and also return letter
of notification. Many money orders. with
the required amount, has been forwarded
to the ''Fsscinator" Co. The retarn Of the
circular letter destr y ed all written esi-
dence sgsinst the concern. The postal
authorities. however, have issued inr.ruc-
tions that all American postc fices.
designated as exchange Offices with
Canada. shall be treated Is Offices
of destination, and postmssters therest
have been notified to refuse tc GER
tify money orders or forward registered
letters payable to the Home Fascinator
Company, Montreal, Causds." and to re-
turn the same to the offices Of their origin.
1t 10 expected that many thousands Of let
