Alaskan children in schools and families in the States. The Sitka Industrial School. This largest of all the industrial schools in Alaska was established in 1880 by the Board of Home Missions of the Presbyterian Church. The buildings are admirably located on an elevation about 200 feet from highwater mark about midway between the town of Sitka and Indian River. An abundant supply of pure water is brought in pipes a distance of three-fourths of a mile. The water is forced to a height of 80 feet into a large tank by means of a force pump, and from this source all the buildings, including the hospital, are supplied. In connection with the school are eight "model cottages" where the married couples from the school begin housekeeping in Boston style," as the natives express it. Funds for the erection of some of the cottages were loaned (without interest) by the Indian Rights Association; others were erected with money furnished by benevolent individuals in sympathy with this rational method of dealing with the Indian problem. The young people who occupy these cottages have a life lease of the ground, and are expected to pay for the cottages in installments. The average cost of a cottage is $350. We expect these model homes to be centers of purity, from which will radiate influences that will be far-reaching and lasting in their results. Here family life is established and family ties are held sacred; here industry, frugality, perseverance, and thrift are developed; here old heathen customs have no place—no Indian doctors, no witchcraft, no plural wives, no drinking, no gambling, no reckless living. In these homes the young husbands have a chance to develop into manly, self-respecting men and the young wives into tidy, industrious women. Hospital.-In 1889 it became evident that a place was needed for the care of the sick, and Mrs. Elliott F. Shepard, of New York, very liberally donated the money for the erection of a hospital for the girls. Later a boys' hospital was erected near by. In 1892 it became evident that it was unwise to attempt to carry on two separate establishments, and the boys' hospital was somewhat enlarged and the upper floor devoted to a ward for girls. This combined hospital was opened for patients November 22, 1894. Previous to 1894 the building had been opened only to patients from the school, but now the wards were opened to natives from any part of ED 97-102 |
