THREE FRAUD ORDERS
AGAINST ONE PERSON

The big stick Of the Postofhce De
partment has been welded again against
an Individual N New York city, who
apparently has more lives than the pro-
verbal cat.
a fraud order was issued on February
4, or this year, against the Raymond
A. Browne Music Company. 40 West
Ihirty-third street, New York City. and
an attempt being made to circumvent
the order by having mail addressed TO
the concern at the Knickerbocker Thea
ter building, it was extended 10 cover
that address.
IL now appears that Raymond A.
Browne is continuing the business
against which the fraud order was d.
rected by having mail addressed to him
personally. To take care Of this recent
development the department has issued
an order against Browne personally.
Browne has a scheme by which he ex-

As to Mr.. Vaughan.

They were discussing the prope
pronuncia ion of the name of w.
Somerset Vaughan, the new English
dramatist, who suddenly burst on
London a few months ago with four
plays, and whose Jack Straw" is now
being given on Broadway.
THAT name is pronounced 'Mawm,
declared one who had been in London.
"No-it's surely 'Mawum,'" opined
somebody else.
"'Mahm' is better" declared an
other.
"'Why not 'Muggum?" said one.
who inclined to the facetious.
And they grew quite heated about 1t.
"Why, of course it's 'Mawm!'"
"Rats-it's 'Mawum!'
''No!-'Mahmi'
'Muggum'-by all means"
Until finally one who had done moth
ing so far but show signs of growing
impatience and ennui suddenly brought
his fist down on the table.
NUNS the world" he Shouted.
That ended the discussion.

O'ConneII at Canterbury.

O'Connell used to relate good story
of his first visit to Canterbury catheral,
which was the scene of Catholic pill
grimage recently. He inquired from
the verger the exact spot of the death
of Thomas a Beckett, and then knelt
down reverently and kissed it. The
verger in terror told O'Connell that
the dean would instantly dismiss him
if he were to allow Popish work like
that. O'Connell asked him his fee for
showing a visitor round the catheral.
He said one shilling; O'Connell gave
him half a crown; whereupon the
verger said: You may kiss the stone
again, sir, without any additional
charge, and l will look out and tell
you if see the dean coming. West

One of Dumas Sentences.

The prize for the longest sentence
ever written may fairly be awarded
to the elder Dumas, who probably
holds a further record for fertility
-of production In the seventh of the
20 volumes which compose the I'm
pressions de Voyage" there is SEN
tence describing Benvenuto Cellini
which fills three pages, or 1O8 lines,
averaging As letters apiece. The SEN
tence is broken by 6S commas and 60
semicolons, but as it contains 1875
verbs and 122 proper names, the read
er is somewhat bewildered before the
end is reached.
