famous in Alaskan annals, ehlehs iol
the memory OF many bloody battles
between the Russians and the natives
which took place there and near there.
AZ long ago as TS3S trading post
was founded there by a Russian named
Nalakoff. The natives had already
been severely prosecuted by the RUS
SLAMS in other parts OF Alaska, ana
they burned Malakoff's establishment
several times and killed nunnoer
OF his companions: but the RUSSIAN
who himself was ruthless hSnter,
STAYED for number OF years ana
killed many OF the Indians
Kerchin:koff was another Russian
trader. man of the most unsparins
cruelty. who met his death al the
hands of the natives of Eulato. He IS
reputed TO have killed enough lndla"s

skulls Some Russian traders al a

secured two cannons. loaded them
with scrap iron chains. mails ana

settlement ar Nulato. Tee natives
knew nothing of cannon ana they

the natives by this event that the Rus,

Beer Bottles Do Not
Contain Full Quart

One of the unforeseen elements of a
dry" state has been brought to the
notice of F. G. Buchtel, deputy state
sealer of weights and measures, in the
form of complaints about liquids being
sold by the stores in empty beer bottles
to customers who call for quart OF
the commodity. Everyone familiar with
beer bottles, full and empty, know that
it requires the contents of five of them
to measure out full gallon, and that
one beer bottle will hold one.fifth of
a gallon.
Since prohibition is coming on in the
state empty beer bottles are drug
on the market and can be brought at
low prices, so it is stated that il is q
common practice for gro,ers and other
merchants who have number of emp.
ties on hand to fill one of these beer
bottles for the customer who calls for
a quart Of oil, gasoline or some other
liquid that must be sold in bottle. So
far as known no man yet has ever oh.
iected because these bottles did not
hold full quart of beer, but house.
wives are more careful, and when they
purchase a quart they expect at least
one-fourth Of a gallon,

Sterling Ends Week
In Much Uncertainty

Copyright, 1915, by the New York
Evening Post.)
New York, Sept 4.-Sterling ended
the week, as might have been expected,
in state of uncertain expectancy and
suspended animation.
There were practically no transac
tions; indeed, the two.day holiday, with
Lombard Street olen Monday, and with
so many possibilities in the air, would
have been sufficient to discourage any
attempt at business
In the stock exchange, though trading
was light, an atmosphere of returning
cneerfulness which followed the mid.
week recovery Ct sterling, was distinct.
ly perceptible. A favorable fact was
the predominance Of standard railway
shares. Practically all of these ad.
vanced, reflecting a slackening of Lon.
