MUSEUM GETS ANHIST0RICAL
 RUSSIAN MUG

It Jdot a COppCl liu5- h 5io6 cup, in fact. But it has been given a prominent place in the list of Al; 5kan curios now in the posses si il of the Alaska Historical Asso- citation and on display in the Alaska Museum in the A. B. building, says the Juneau Empire.
 It is a relic of the days of Russian ownership of this territory and dates way back to 1867. It was giv- en to the museum by Peter Kos trometinoff, of Sitka, a descendant of one of the pioneer families of Alaska.
 In the Russian days Sitka was the center of importance. Soldiers were stationed there and many workers, Indians and others were employed around the docks and yards. It was the custom in those days at the noon hour for those employed in these places to march through the long lower hall of the dock building, filing in sets of four past bench on which stood a barrel of rum. Standing by group approached, handed the grog cup to the men and they in turn dipped it into the barrel, took their allowance and passed on. The pro- cedure was repeated until all the workers had received their share.
 Wages, in those days, were mere pittances, and Mrs. kostrometinoff, mother of the donor of the cup, in order to add to the family reve nues, made pies of various kinds, using native meats, fish and other tempting dishes which found ready sale among the workers and soldiers. Peter, at that time small, but lively lad, was the salesman and in this capacity made numerous ac- quaintances among the men. Final ly, when the company was ordered home, as it was preparing to leave, the copper cup was given to the Kostrometinoff family and has been in it's possession since that time until it was presented a few days ago to the Alaska Historical So- ciety.
 Other donations have been made recently to the societys collection. A new, hand-carved, ivory pipe, unique in design and workmanship has been added to an already valu- able display of Eskimo curios. One of the daintiest pieces on exhibi- tior is one recently donated by Mrs. nc part in it's construction. It is fashioned from bits of silky fiber, cunningly woven into cuplike shape and decorated exquisitely in blended colors. It was the home of a humming bird. The mother had deposited therein two eggs before death overlook her. Mrs. Long found the nest, and struck by it's beauty brought it home and gave it to the Society to be placed in the museum.
 These and many other things are the pride of Curator A. P. Kashe- varoff who finds his duty of ex- hibiting them to visitors one of the most pleasant in life.

 Lieut. John A. B. Sinclair, M. C., U. $. N., has assumed charge of the hospital and community work at tAc Chichagoff mines. He came from Washington, D. C., but his pres ent auto, is not his first in Alaska, as he had charge of the Sitka hos pital during the years 1909 to 1912. He was contemplating retiring from

NAVAL AVIATORS TO
PLAY AT CAPITAL

Tallahassee, July 21.-(SpeciaD-
baseball will be played in this city
this week, if plans now under way are
carried out. The team representing
the naval aero station at Pensacola
has wired a challenge through. the
chief of police Of this city for game,
to be played here with the local team.
Baseball enthusiasts Immediately took
up the matter and arrangements are
being made for the entertainment of
the visitors. The telegram from the
aero team requested information as
to landing facilities at Lake Bradford,
as that team proposes to come over
from Pensacola in hydroplanes.
E. G. Chesley Immediately wired an
acceptance of the challenge and stated
that the team would be welcomed here
for game any day this week.
preferably Thursday. He also advised
them of the landing conditions at Lake
Bradford, and last night engineers
maps of the location drawn by Mr..
F. G. Elliot, were forwarded by mail.
: This game has attracted great in
terest and would be unique. Not only
would Tallahasseeans be treated to a
good game of ball, but would have
the added pleasure of a fleet of gov
eminent planes, which, in all prob
ability would make exhibition flights
during their stay in the city. The
best baseball talent available will be
used by Tallahassee in the game
which will probably be made interest
ing for the visitors, whose team has
the reputation of being the equal of
any professional aggregation in
this section.
