CAPE St. ELIAS HAS
A NEW LIGHTHOUSE

The Cape st. Ellis Light Station,
Alaska, was placed in commission On
September 6, 1916, and the temporary
light discontinued. This station IS
located on the south end of Kayak Is
land, on sheaf about As feet above
sea level. The tower is square and
supports a cast-iron watch room and
second-order lantern, whose focal
plane is 40 feet above the base of the
structure and IS feet above sea level.
The tower rises above the roof of the
fog-signal building from one of its
ends. On a terrace east and north Of
this building are located the cooling
tanks for the engines, the fuel-oil and
i1uminating-oil tanks, eisterns, the
dwellings with quarters for three keep

RED TAPE IS CUT
To SAVE TIME NOW

LONDON, Sept. 22.-Falling in line
with other Departments of State in
the question of economy, the Privy
Council of Great Britain have order
ed that the "Great Seal" shall only
be used very sparingly, thus saving
time and money.
The affixing of this Great Seal to a
document takes nearly half an hour
and requires the attendance of two
officers known as THE Sealer' and
the "Chaff Wax
1t was formerly affixed to Royal
Assent appointments of Archbishops,
Bishops, Kings Counsel and Indian
Judges, ETC., but will now only be
used on the patents of Peers, Baro-
nets and appointments of Judges 10
the High Court.
The Seal was always taken around
with the Lord Chancellor, either on
state or private visits, but the custom
was broken by Lord Loreburn, who
Only carried it if certain it's use would
be required. 1t is six inches in diam
eter and was struck in silver in the
longest press at the mint. 1t con-
sists of two deep and heavy plates Of
silver closely fitting into each other
and the present one was made soon
after King Edwards death, at cost
Of $4,000 to $4,000. Constant usage
makes it necessary for new ones t.
be struck frequently, and during the
reign Of Queen Victoria no less thar
four were made.
An old seal goes through the pro
cess of "demasking," the Sovereign

make distinguishing mark. Ont
side Of the seal is given to sitting

that by lowering the grade CT gasoline
production could be increased from 80
to so per cent. He attributed the fu-
ture gasoline shortage to decreased
production of refinable oil (the de-
crease amounting to 100000 barrels
in 1870, steadily increasing consump-
ton, the discontinuance of imports ard
the heavy exports due to the European
war demands.
Discussing the value of chemistry tc
the coal mining industry, Edwin NJ.
Chance, declared in paper read at
today's meeting that Americans have in
the past been purchasing coal on its
looks rather than because of it's heat
ing power. He made public results IF
experiments which showed dull appear
ing coal to have better heating and
BURNING properties than the bright
Goals which have formerly demanded
premiums in the market. 1t is said
that this discovery will geratly help to
Offset the cost of coal production with
out materially increasing the costs to
the consumer.

w. r.. Hamilton of San Francisco

successful innovations in refining
methods Most of these solutions Mr..
