PUBLIC MUST
 STAMP PAPERS

On one of the recent mails from the Outside, R. c. Wood who, in the absence of George Hutchinson, IS lcting as deputy internal revenue collector, received consignment of $500 worth of the new war tax stamps from the Tacoma internal revenue office. They came in re- sponse to a wire sent by MT. Wood upon the receipt of the last bunch of stamps, $2,000 worth having been asked for. AS soon as they were received, a large number of the new stamps, which are of the documen- tary and proprietary class, were dis posed of to those who have docu- ments and proprietary instruments 10 record.
 One of the largest purchasers was Commissioner and Recorder John F. Dillon. They were secured for the purpose of stamping many accumu- lated documents in his office, Judge Dillon stating that he was willing to accommodate the public to that ex- tent when no stamps were to be Ob tained. Now, however, that the stamps are here, Judge Dillon states that all documents presented for recording, must first be stamped by tie person who wishes the recording done. He has made this rule in order to avoid the confusion which would only naturally arise if two systems were in vogue for such business, and also to avoid the eX- tra work for his office, which has been so great as to necessitate his employing an extra clerk.
 Therefore, no stampable documents are entitled to be recorded at the recorders office unless they are stamped before they are presented. Stamps may be secured from R. c. Wood at his office in the First National bank

much like ordinary scrapers, except for the fact that it will have a nose like a Bagley. The lowering of the trolley serves to fill the scraper, which is then carried up to the dump box on the raised trolley, and comes back to the cut again under it's own weight and the velocity attained by it when it has been dumped.
 The end of the trolley line, which is fastened to the ground by the present bucket and carrier method, will be movable and will be operated either by a third drum on the regu- lation hoist, or by separate en- zine. Block and tackle apparatus attached to the scraper and the carrier, as we'll as to the mast, will also aid in the operation of the appliance.
 Hanot Brothers have just finished the building of model of their new invention at the shops of the Samson Hardware company. They have discovered several defects in their original plans, but these have, or will be, remedied They now in- tend to start the construction of a scraper on large scale, and, after they have tried it out at their Pedro creek workings, will supply the minor details. It is probable that the ap- pliance will then be patented.

Eastern Star Ceremony is Impressive Installation is the Big Event of Season

One of the most representative au- dlenCeS ever seen in Fairbanks. gathered last Friday evening at the Masonic Temple for the purpose of witnessing the installation cere- monies Of Midnight Sun Chapter, No 6, OrGcr of the Eastern Star. which chapter is the farthest North or gdnization of it's kind in the world About i5 members of the chapter were present at the ceremonies. the guests bringing the total number of those in attendance to nearly 200
 The installation was conducted by Mrs. Anne r. Caskey, the retir- ing worthy matron, who gave all of the installation work from mem ory, assisted by Miss Pearl Peterson, installing marshal, and Mrs. Margaret Rolston, installing chaplain. The ceremonies were very impressive throughout, due to the graceful man. her in which all of the installing officers acquitted themselves in their parts. Miss Peterson. as marshal. ably seconded the excellent work of the installing officer and was he recipient of many compliments for the way in which she handled the difficult task which had been assigned to Ter in the long and con- plicated ceremony.
 BEAUTIFUL COSTUMES.
 The grandeur of the occasion gen. erally was added to by the many beautiful costumes in evidence among the ladies who attended the event, as well as by the immaculate full dress of the men. As is the custom among Eastern Star Chapters, all of the lady officials, both retiring and incoming, were gowned in white, many new costumes having been procured especially for the occasion.
 The beauty and impressiveness of the ceremony itself, is almost beyond description. Its chief feature was the obligation, which was taken at the altar in the center of the room in which there was no light save that emanating from a star which shone directly over the altar After the obligation had been administered, a brilliant electric star shone in the East, and immediately Dr. Aline Brad ley sang Star of the East" which further added to the dignity and solemnity of the occasion.
 FLOWERS PRESENTED
 Another feature of the affair was the presentation of flowers to the retiring Worthy Matron. the incom ing Worthy Matron and the newly installed representatives of the five points of the star, by little Misses lane Hall and Katherine Buckley They performed their duties with as much dignity as did their elders.

Simson' S Sale Will
 Start This Morning

What promises 10 be one of the biggest sales ever held in the his tory of Fairbanks will commence this morning, when Simson Brothers, the First avenue Clotbiers, will start their annual Midwnter Clearance sale. They have been preparing for the big sale since the holiday sea son was over and the appearance of the tables in the big store is mule evidence of the fact that nothing has been left out The merchants state that everything which will be seen on sale today, was shipped in during the past six months. Special care has been given to the marking and taggings of all goods, so that there may be no confusion of prices on anything.
 This sale is being made for the purpose of reducing the enormous stock carried by Simson Brothers, as the firm is determined that here after they will have no leftover stock if it is possible to dispose of it, The coming of each season will, therefore, mean the introduction of that seasons newest novelties ir mems ware to the buyers of Fair banks and vicinity
 For the purpose of making the spring and summer purchases of the firm, Ben Simson will soon leave for the Outside.

Hall It was with difficulty that Mrs, Caskey found words with which to thank her as sociates for the tender regard eX- pressed both by Mrs. Halls words and by the beautiful jewel. but, recovering from her emotion, she paid a splendid tribute to the mem bers of the organization, and especi- ally to the officers who had assisted her in forming the chapter and in making it a success in its first year of existence.
 Mrs. Halls speech was as follows:
 PRESENTATION SPEECH.
 Worthy Matron, Members and Visitors: It Is indeed pleasure to have you with us this evening to witness the beautiful installation ceremony of the Order of the East ern Star.
 "It is an institution fodnded in 1854 by Robert Morris, an eminent poet, scholar and Mason-an insti- tuition inspired by the principles of love, Truth and Relief, and is ded- cated to and upheld by more than 100000 loyal members in the borders of the United States alone.
 To be a member of the order is to enlist ones self in the cause of giving relief to the needy, thought full counsel to those who may wish and deserve it, and to aid and assist our brothers of the Masonic fratern- ity by lending our endeavors to their strength in the carrying on of the great work.
 LESSON TAUGHT.
 "'One of the great lessons taught by our order is so to live that we may not only be numbered as good officers and members of our order but by so loving and practising the teachings we profess that we may carry the light of Truth and Love out amongst our friends, annd into the world, thus proving that it means more than mere words and a cere- mony to be true member of this

New Scraper Has

A scraper, which promises to revolutionize work in the open-cuts of this city, as we'll as other mining camps, is now in process of inven- ton by Hanot Brothers, owners of and operators on Discovery claim on Pedro creek For several years past they have been experimenting with several different kinds of scrap CTS with the view of lessening the expense of operating, and they now believe that they have hit upon a scraping scheme which will. in the end. benefit Open-cut operators gen erally.
 The chief features of the new scraper are that it operates auto matically, and that the trolley lines as we'll as the cable helps in work ing it, The scraper itself in work
