BABY'S If PREPAID,
NEW INSURARGE PLAN
CHICAGO, July 26. (/P)—Baby I
Schneider—charges prepaid!
Bernard J. Schneider, Jr., who
arrived in this world in June, need
never worry about increasing medi
cal costs nor need his parents.
He is the first baby to come j
under the next health insurance
contracts recently inaugurated by j
227 Chicago physicians.
For a nominal sum, paid yearly, j
Baby Schneider and the other
members of his family are assured <
the best medical and hospital care, j
No matter how high the fees, they j
are absorbed by the health and
hospital service bureau, said to be
the first organization of its kind. ;
The best of the plan in Baby
Schneider’s case, so far, is that no
bills accompanied him.
The S. S. Tanana, of the A. S. S.
Co., left Seattle for Seward last j
Tuesday.
Following an investigation into
the circumstances surrounding the
recent death of Harry Lee, at j
Haines, Joe Curry has been bound
over to the Federal Grand jury.

ALASKA
TRIBE 15 fiSPIBLI
It is difficult to give any pre
cise statement concerning the
; number of the Innuit race, on ac
i count of the many and great ob
! stacles in the way of procuring
the necessary information. The
| number of Innuit inhabiting Alas
ka is set down about 12,000 ac
| cording to the last U. S- census.
As already mentioned the Alas
ka Innuit are rapidly decreasing
in number partly owing to the
comtaminating influences exer
cised over them by the whites,
partly because the Government
is criminally negligent in taking
care of the natives- The great
est misfortune, which the Innuit
suffered from contact with the
whites was the smallpox epi
demic in 1837, which raged for
four years. At that time entire
villages were populated. For
some time about 1890 the eskimo
were nn serious danger of starv
ation through the rapid depletion
of the whale, walrus, fish and
land animals on which they had
relied for subsistence. But since
the introduction of the reindeer
in 1891 they are recuperating
though not increasing in number.
To the government they art
chiefly valuable as a people who
occupy and are satisfied with a
portion of Alaska which will not
I be demanded by other people
They should be assisted in ever]
possible way and by doing thii
they will be a strenght and ai
economic asset to the Nation.
