in his presentation of Shakespearean lectures Rev Vaughan possesses many of the characteristics of Richard Mansfield and many times yes terday afternoon in his recital of Julius Cajsar could be seen the same effect as presented by Richard Mansfield at the Grand Opera House a short time ago He has a magnificent voice powerful and appealing and in every way admir ably adapted to deal with

4 1793 was one of the scenes in uisiury uiai arc surrounded with romantic Interest The ceremony took place In the long room of the old Fraunces tavern in New York city and the one hundred and twenty fourth anniversary of the event was recently observed by ap propriate exercises chief among them being the formal turning over of the building in whieh it occurred to Its present owners the New York state branch of the Society of the Sons of the Revolution This historic tayeru stands at the corner of Broad and Pearl streets It has been damaged by Are several times since Washingtons day and In the course of the changes made in repair ing It came to have quite a different appearance from the tavern of 1124 years ago The Sons of the devolution acquired the property three years ago and the society has spent 00000 In re building the structure and making it as nearly as possible like it was in the time of the Revolution using the orig inal bricks and timber for the most part and following the pictures and descriptions of the tavern as it existed In the eighteenth century The prop erty cost the society all told about 1000 This expense was chiefly met through a bequest for the purpoe from an ex president of the New York state branch of the Sons of the Revo lution Frederick S Tallnmdgo and a memorial tablet reciting the fact of his patriotic interest In the preserva tion of the structure has been affixed to the exterior and was unveiled on the recent anniversary of Washing- j tons leave taking of his officers An other tablet was unveiled In the long room bearing the following record Fraunces tavern erected 1719 Queens Head tavern 1752 chamber of commerce founded here 17H8 head- GEORGE WASHINGTON AND FHAUNCES TAV ERN WHERE HE BID HIS OFFICERS FAEE WELIi quarters of committee of

the Sons of the Revolution in the state of New York 1904 formal occupation taken by the Sons of the Revolution Dec 4 1907 After the dedication of the tablets letters from President Roosevelt and Governor Hughes of New York were read Tradition had it that mine host Fraunces was a genial man who at tracted to his tavern the important social affairs of the New York of his period The merchants met here to confer regarding the odious stamp act The long room was the headquar ters not only of the chamber of com merce but of the St Andrews society the governors of the province the New York society and the Society For Pro moting Arts and Agriculture The wine cellar was once used as a jail where unfortunate malefactors of the days of King George were secretly bottled up to repent of their sins at leisure and amuse themselves by scraping the green mold of the damp floor off their boots Rusty chains used to confine prisoners hang on the wall The tavern will be used henceforth not only as a place of refreshment but as a historic museum When the work of restoration was begun It was necessary to turn out certain guests who had lodged there among them Patsy McGovern a longshoreman who for thirty six straight years had been accustomed to hang his jumpers in the f ame room and who did not want to move He protested that if George Washington had been living that wor thy statesman would not have allowed the tenants to be ejected to make way for a lot of musty relics It makes you long for dinnertime OF V FRANKLIN yw - lfXpi flrtSja Tp THE S JAS S DOYLE A weekly newspaper that publishes
