Collector nf Internal Rpvpihip T. F.
Penman Is lutvlnj: troubles of Ills m n
In tlifFp days. The new war revenuu
law necessitates mirh a rush nf work
nnd Is accompanied by so tnimy com
plications thnt the office force Is com
pelled to work almost day nnd night.
The additional liPlp allowed tinder tho
new rpgnlntlons Is Insufficient for tlio
omniums amount of detailed work and
tlip perplexity of dealers and niimufac
tillers nil over the Krnit district Is
hourly exemplified liy agonized letters
nnd tclegrntns.
Collector Penman lias received n con
r.lKinnent of adhesive stamps provided
for by the war revenue act. These con
sist of DO.000 2-cent documentary stamps
piinclpally applied to bank checks, etc.
Also were received 200,000 proprietory
stamps, to be used on patent medl
i lnes and other proprietary articles.
This supply Is entirely Inadequate to
I'l; the demands In this revenue district
as Indicated by the fnct that tho col
lector has already received advance
orders for about JT.VOOO check stamps,
although be expects that every regis
tered, mail will brine more stamps to
meet tho requirements on July 1, tho
(Into when the law will take effect.
OF MANY DENOMINATIONS.
These L'-cent documentary stamps
are divided among the stamp deputies
li. his district located nt Wllkes-Harro,
I-'nston, Lock Haven, retaining nearly
ope-half for orders at tho Scranton
Mllce. According to Instructions from
the commissioner of Internal revenue,
C Hector Penman has made a requisi
te i for documentary stamps of tho
following denominations:!, J, y, 4, 3, 10,
J.'i and no cents; $1, $:), $D, $10 and $30;
proprietary stamps, H. ''! and of
a cent. 1. Vi, '2 li'i. 4 nnd 5 cents.
The collector noticed that n half-cent
stamp to be used on fire Insurance pol
icies was not included among those
directed to be ordeied and Inserted
that In Ins requisition.
There are two general classes of
stamps, documentary nnd proprietary.
The chief uses of documentary stamps
by denominations are as follows: Half
cent on lire insurance policies; 1-cent
on bills of hale, bills of lading by rail
road ami express companies and tele
graph mersages; 2-cent stamp on stock
crtlllcales, corporation bonds, checks,
ilrufls, bills of exchange and certifi
cates of deposit drawing Interest. The
1-cent stump goes on foreign bills of
ex.hange nnd letteis of credit. The 10
cent stamp on bills of lading for ex
poits, powers of attorney nnd proxies;
too iT-rent stamp on indemnifying
hor.ds, leases for one year, mortgages
for fioni $1,000 to U.MM), n.id for each
additional $300 another stamp is re
quired; also, protest of notes and ware
house receipts.
The 30-cent stamp Is for deeds, mini
mum value of $300, and leases for three
years. The one-dollar stamp Is for
leases of more than three years and
for steamship tickets.
PllOPWKTAUY STAMPS.
The uses for proprietary stamp as
found In Schedule l of the act nre as
follows: One-eighth cent on patent
medicines and other proprietary ar
ticles retailing for 5 cents or less;
quarter cent on articles retailing from
" to 10 cents; three-eighths cent on
articles retailing from 10 to 13 cents;
live-eighths cent un articles retailing
from 13 to 23 cents. For each addition
al 23 cents or fraction thereof another
ftve-elglith-cent stamp is required.
A ono cent stamp is required on
sparkling and other wines In bottles
of one pint. On each bottle contain
ing more than one pint, a two-cent
stump is required. On all such articles
manufactured on or after July t a
stamp will be affixed by the manufac
turer. All dealers who have n stock
in hand unstamped after that date are
requested to affix the proper stamps
when the article Is sold at retail.
In order to facilitate tho distribution
of stamps tho collector has been re
quested by the commissioner by tele
graph to communicate with n bank In
each town In his district nnd ask It
to accept und sell documentary and
proprietary stamps, giving the bank
the discount of 1 per cent., nllowed by
law. This arrangement will be mudo
for a short time until stamps can be
tesularly distributed. Ho also has
bi en requested to arrange plans of
every accommodation possible for the
sale of ndhesive stamps by postmas
ters, banks, drug stores, merchants,
etc., who will be asked to buy them In
quantities worth not less than $100 at
a commission of 1 per cent, for re
sale: nlso to sell stamps to all parties
applying regardless of location giving
the taxpayers In the district the pref
erence. MISTAKEN IDEA.

on documents, etc. This cannot be
done. Documentary stamps Issued by
the Internal revenue department only
can bo used on documents, and pro
prietary stamps obtnlncd from the
snmo source are to bo used on medi
cines, preparations, etc. However, ow
ing to a lark of facilities nnd time to
prepare all denominations nnd kinds of
stamps provided for In tho revenue
net, tho treasury department will use
certain denominations of postngo
stamps with the letters "I. U." Im
printed upon them for Immediate de
tnand. These letters will Indicate "In
ternal Revenue," nnd will bo distri
buted from the postofflces.
Tho collector has received blanks for
returns of legacies and distributary

Also a monthly return of first weekly

FOUND DEAD.
Hoys on West Mountain Stumble on
n Jinn's Ilodv-IIns Not Moon
Identified.
Dead and with decomposition already
setting In. the body of a man made a
sudden and gruesome ending to a jaunt
which Claude and Norward Pitcher, of
Price street, were taking 'Saturday af
ternoon on West mountain.
The discovery was made about 3.43
o'clock, as the boys were passing from
tho niuln road, which leads up past
the old blue stone quarry. Into n heavy
clump of pines where a line spring of
water furnished a refreshing dilnk.
Tho boy.s caught sight of the form,
which was some distance In from the
little path and about fifty yards from
the lnuiu road. The lads Immediately
notified the West Side police.
The case was turned over to Count v
Detective Leyshon, the body being In
Newton township. Detective Leyshon,
Funeral Director William A. Price nnd
ex-Select Councilman W. J. Thomas
brought the remains to the morgue at
Price's undertaking establishment,
where a post-mortem was conducted
yesterday morning by Deputy Coroner
Pennypucker. Complete exhaustion
from tuberculosis is the only reason
able conclusion to be given as the cause
of death. No marks of violence were
found.
Judging from the external nppear
ances, the man must have been dead
since Wednesday. Andrew Wickizor,
Arthur and Clarence Mack, three young
boys living nearby, tell of having heard
a peculiar thrashing sound In the di
rection of the spring just at dusk
AVednesday night. They were fright
ened nnd ran home. Mrs. Mack also
tells of having passed a man near the
"pines" Tuesday night, who looked
something like the dead man.
He is about C feeet G Inches, and In
health would weigh 173 pounds. Ills
age would bo about 48 years. His eyes
were blue, hair dark brown, and his
moustache nnd a scraggy growth of
heard were sandy colored. Ills upper
Up did not cover his teeth, which were
prominent. Ho wore a black suit of
clothes, almost new, with a Penn
Clothing House mark on the coat. A
white shirt, turndown collar. No. 13,
and blue dot made-up tie completed
his dress. Ills hat. a slouch one, hnd

FINE SPORT ON
THE SPEEDWAY
Saturday's Races Were Good, Despite

THICKS W1T1 UN Tl llSPL'KDWAY.
For a time on Saturday afternoon
It looked as If the racing would lie In
a direction for shelter of some sort far
from the speedway on the boulevard,
for tho rains descended and the Hoods
came at an unfortunate time. A red
bicycle tied to a fleeing horse Isn't
tho most deslrnble equipment In the
world for attendance upon a cloud
burst, as many horsemen discovered.
But throngs were out Just tho same.
The only things to bo desired In the
vicinity of the speedway are a scries
of portable sheds and a nice Ice cream
soda stand. With these and a wire
that Isn't quite so kinky, tho chronic
kicker ought to be entirely satisfied.
The best place to be "at" Is In the
ring. If you can get there, located near
the Judge's stand, which Is a movable
affair dependant upon the mood of the
horse nttached thereto. Then you nre
able to hear the tea bell and to watch
Mr. Kelley's pleased expression when
one horse Insists for n half hour upon
storting in a quarter ot a mile in ar
rears. Mr. Kelley is a .gentlemnn and no
body could hoar him swear on Satur
day for ho swore not at nil but he had
his temptations, and he finally btt the
Judge's stand and expostulated In per
son in the middle of the track with
the drivers who failed to "come on."
SOMK NF,V FACES.
There wore some new faces in the
group of enthusiasts In his vicinity.
Among them was Mr. Phil Itaub, of
Dallas, whose name calls up visions of
chicken nnd wn flics. Ho had a very
good horse but there were others. Dr.
G. K. III11 was also present and en
joyed the sport hugely. It is predicted
that he will be in the contests ill the
near future. Mr. II. M. Hullstoad's
handsome team and trap, nnd with
himself In a buggy with his fast trot
ter attracted much attention.
Tho first race contained six horses.
Mr. Ladwlg's David Copperfield ws
the winner. The following Is tho sum

Mr. Crawford's roan Cadmus was the
record-breaker of the day. The race
between Goodwin's Cedellu. Snell's
Silver Prince and (-'ndmus was excit
ing. Silver Prince weire an intricate
system of suspenders, notwithstanding
the disadvantages of which he scented
to be able to travel at the rate of 1.12H
In the first heat. Cadmus won the other
two heats nnd the race In I.OS',4, Cedella
finishing second.
DUAL OF EXCITEMENT.
A great deal of excitement was mani
fested in the next contest, which was
really a fine one, between Duke. King,
Pomp and Nero. Pomp won the llrst
heat, but tried to do so much trick
work in walking on his hind feet that
be lost In the others. A jubilant, man
was A. D. Plerson. Ills handsome bhuk
Nero won the race, tho llnnlo of the
last heat being cleverly done under the
guiding hand of Del Foote.

of the kite-shaped track. Mr. Craw
ford drove her against Mr. Goodwin's
(Vdella, each having won a heat, but
owing to the lateness of the hour the
race was unfinished. Tho best time
was 1.11.
Mr. G. M. Hallstead tried his hand
some bay against Mr. Crawford's Dec

time, LIB. 1.15. Mr. Crawford then
