JOSEPH DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND PALH#ONTOLOGY.—The work of cataloguing and labeling has progressed steadily throughout the year, over five thousand catalogue entries having been made and more than eleven hundred new labels prepared. The acquisitions include an important collection of Silurian fossils from Ohio, acquired by purchase, and several minor additions, obtained partly by exchange and partly by purchase. Additions have also been made to the collection of rock speci- mens, designed to illustrate the geology of New York Island. Two new cases placed in the alcoves at the south end of the Geological Hall have given opportunity for a better display and more convenient arrangement of the material in that part of the hall. The Curator, Professor Whitfield, has prepared and pub- lished several papers in the Museum Bulletin, illustrated with four plates, relating to a new genus and species of Lower Report of the President. 15 Carboniferous Bryozoan, a remarkable case of the reproduction of lost parts shown in a fossil Crinoid, and supposed worm burrows in rocks of the Chemung Group of New York. The Associate Curator, Dr. Hovey, has had charge of the Museum Journal, and has prepared and published various papers con- nected with his investigations of volcanic eruptions in the West Indies, and has given lectures in the Museum courses and elsewhere, in the interest of the Museum, on these and other subjects. DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY AND ORNITHOLOGY.—Sev- eral important accessions have been made during the year to the collections of both mammals and birds, partly by purchase and partly through Museum Expeditions. Of special popular interest is the installation of a number of noteworthy bird groups, and the advanced state of preparation of others. The former include the Yellow-billed Magpie, the Sierra Dusky Grouse, the Mountain Quail and the Valley Quail, illustrating interesting types of bird life peculiar to California; the latter include a large Flamingo Group, and a group illustrating the bird life of the irrigated portions of the San Joaquin Valley, California. Considerable progress has also been made in the construction of large mammal groups, as the Roosevelt or Olympic Elk, the big Alaska Peninsula Bear, and the Mexican Collared Peccary groups. Single specimens mounted for ex- hibition include a Central American Puma, a Crested Antelope, a Rocky Mountain Goat (presented by Mr. C. A. Moore, Jr.), and some twenty or more smaller animals, as hares, squirrels, spermophiles, wood rats, field mice, etc. The Museum Expeditions include the trip of the Associate Curator, Mr. Chapman, to Florida and the Bahamas under the North American Ornithology Fund, which resulted in securing abundant material for a fine Flamingo Group, and also for other bird groups soon to be constructed. The Mexican Ex- pedition under J. H. Batty has been very successful, yielding large returns in birds and mammals, including group acces- sories as well as valuable material for other departments of the Museum. 16 Report of the President. The accessions altogether include about 1,900 mammals and over 6,o00 birds, 278 of the latter being by donation, and include 136 birds from Ecuador, presented by Dr. S. Austin Davis. The Museum is indebted to Mr. N. D. Bill, of Spring- field, Mass., for the use of the schooner yacht G/orza for Mr. Chapman’s work in Florida and the Bahamas. The Museum is also indebted to the New York Zodlogical Society and to the Central Park Menagerie for many valuable specimens received in the flesh: The Curator, in addition to his editorial supervision of the Bulletin, has been able to devote considerable time to the preparation of papers on mammals, and during the year pub- lished reports on a number of important collections received during recent years and now for the first time critically identi- fied. A list of these, twelve in number, will be found in the re- port of the ‘‘ Department of Books and Publications ”’ (page 33). The Associate Curator, besides his important field explora- tions and constant supervision of the work on the bird groups, has published a description of a new grouse from the Sierra Nevada of California and a report on the birds collected by the Andrew J. Stone Expedition to Alaska in 1903. He has also given many lectures in the Museum courses and also elsewhere in the interest of the Museum. DEPARTMENT OF VERTEBRATE PALZONTOLOGY.—Nearly 600 specimens of fossil vertebrates have been added to the col- lection during the year, principally as a result of the following expeditions: Expeditions for Cretaceousireptiless eee) ee i is7) Bridger expedition for fossil’mammalsia:s- 5-1-2 388 Big Badlands expedition for fossil mammals.............. 129 Completed exploration of Pleistocene cave deposit ........ 49 The total number of catalogued specimens Jn the collection is now a little over 15,000. The most important addition to the collection was the nearly complete skeleton of the Columbian Mammoth, dis- covered near Jonesboro, Indiana, and purchased by the Museum. This splendid specimen will be mounted and placed 3RONTOSAURUS SKELETON IN THE DINOSAUR HALL. Mounted under the direction of Professor H. F. Osborn by A. Hermann. a eeeeoooreoee_V—OVOO—O Report of the President. 17 on exhibition beside the Mastodon skeleton, which it con- siderably exceeds in height and in length of tusks. The Bridger expedition secured materials for a mounted skeleton of the remarkable six-horned Uintathere, a giant mammal of the Eocene epoch, and a number of skulls or skeletons cf new or rare extinct animals of smaller size. The expedition to the Big Badlands secured a number of fine specimens of the character- istic fossils of that rich field, including several genera hitherto unknown. A nearly complete skeleton of the Oligocene ancestor of the wolf was acquired by purchase. The explorations in the fissure or open cave deposits of northern Arkansas have yielded a large collection of the forest-haunting animals of the leistocene epoch, probably contemporary with the earliest appearance of manin North America. The collection is pecu- liarly rich in small antmals; it includes some sixty species, many of them extinct, the others mostly northern animals, indicating a former much colder climate than now prevails in that region. Our collections of extinct reptiles have been enriched by two fine Plesiosaur skulls and a number of Mosasaur skele- tons from South Dakota, two Marine Crocodile skulls from Montana, and a skull of the Duck-billed Dinosaur from New Mexico. Especial attention has been given in the field-work of recent years to the search for fossil reptiles, which, although more difficult to find and more expensive to collect and pre- pare for exhibition than fossil mammals, are yet of greater interest, as representing more ancient and less known types of life, more widely different from those of the present day, and in many respects far more extraordinary than the extinct animals shown in the Hall of Fossil Mammals. | Much progress has been made in the preparation of these extinct reptiles, and especially of the Dinosaurs, for exhibition in the new Dinosaur Hall. The skeleton of the Dwarf Car- nivorous Dinosaur, or ‘‘ Bird-Catcher,” has been placed on exhibition, the gigantic Brontosaurus skeleton is nearly com- pleted, and three other huge and remarkable Dinosaur skele- tons are well under way toward mounting. A number of skulls, limbs, and incomplete specimens have been prepared and mounted, enough to go a long way toward filling the new 18 Report of the President. hall. The energies of the department have been largely devoted during the past year to the mounting of the huge Brontosaurus skeleton which will form the central attraction of the Dinosaur Hall. This skeleton, 67 feet long and over 15 feet high, has presented pecuhar difficulties, both mechani- cal and scientific, in the mounting, and much study and ex- periment by the Curator and his staff were required to solve them. Inthe modeling of the missing parts of the skeleton we are indebted for many courtesies to the Museum of Yale University. Corresponding courtesies have been extended by us to the Carnegie Museum in connection with the cast of the Diplodocus skeleton being prepared there for exhibition in the British Museum, London. The cessation of the Whitney Fund for the exhibit of the Evolution of the Horse has seriously crippled the work of the department in this direction. Much has .been accom- plished during the three years of the continuance of this fund, the Oligocene, Miocene, Pleistocene and modern horses being now well illustrated by mounted skeletons and by series of skulls, feet, etc., showing the morphology and evolution of those parts in each of the above stages in the development of the race. Several important problems, however, still remain unsolved, especially in the Eocene or earliest stages of the Ancestry of the Horses, which are as yet incompletely known and inadequately illustrated. The most important addition to the Horse Alcove during the year was the exhibit of the Rear- ing Horse and Man skeletons. An instructive comparison with the evolution of the Horse is furnished by the series of feet illustrating the Evolution of the Camel in North America. The preparation of the fossil fish collections for exhibition has progressed rapidly under direction of Professor Dean; they will be displayed in the small tower hall in the southeast corner adjoining the Dinosaur Hall. Dr. Hay has continued his studies upon fossil turtles with the assistance of the grant from the Carnegie Institution, and a fine series of specimens is being prepared for exhibition. A number of scientific papers were published during the year, and several monographic researches continued or com- Report of the President. 19 pleted by the Curator and his staff, the most important being upon the fossil horses and titanotheres. DEPARTMENT OF ETHNOLOGY.—The department has re- ceived accessions principally; through a number of expeditions sent out by the Museum. The following deserve special men- tion: From North America, a Nootka collection obtained by Mr. George Hunt. The most remarkable part of this collection is a whaler’s ceremonial house, which was found on a pond in the interior of Vancouver Island, and in which generations of whalers purified themselves, the house being used at the same time as a depository for the skulls of the whalers.—A Black- foot collection obtained by Dr. Clark Wissler. Dr. Wissler paid special attention to a study of the ceremonials of the Blackfeet, and his collection illustrates in some detail the re- ligious ceremonials of this tribe.—A collection from the in- terior of the State of Washington, by Mr. James Teit. This collection was made in continuance of work done in former years in British Columbia, and represents the culture of the Salish tribes near the boundary of the United States.—A col- lection from the Uchee, made by Mr. F. G. Speck.—A series of casts and negatives of natives of various countries, col- lected by Mr. Caspar Mayer during the World’s Fair at St. Louis. Mr. Mayer’s work was done in coéperation with the Field Columbian Museum. During the past year Dr. Berthold Laufer closed his field- work in China. His expedition, which was provided for by Mr. Jacob H. Schiff, occupied three years, and all the col- lections made have been received. They cover the various aspects of the social and industrial life of China, and give a comprehensive view of Chinese culture. The collection has been installed in the Southwest Gallery, and has been ar- ranged so as to illustrate the industrial and domestic life of the Chinese, their amusements, their religion and their arts. Special stress has been laid upon the demonstration of the historical development of various forms of Eastern life. 20 Report of the President. The Corean collections of the department were increased by a collection made by Dr. C. C. Vinton. Rev. J. W. Chapman, Mr. Henry W. Tate, Capt @eonge N. Comer and Capt. James S. Mutch are continuing work for the Museum in Alaska, British Columbia, and eastern arctic America, but no collections were received during the past year. Dr. William Jones continued the researches begun for the Museum under the auspices of the Carnegie Institution, and incidentally obtained additional explanation of material col- lected in previous years. During the summer Mr. Frederick R. Burton paid a pro- longed visit to the Ojibwa Indians. The Museum provided him with a phonograph, and he made an extensive collection of records of Indian songs. Dr. Roland B. Dixon revisited California in orden to clear up anumber of points relating to the studies made during previous years. The extension of the North American collections has re- quired considerable rearrangement in the Indian Hall, the new material being placed in proper geographical sequence. A special collection has been arranged illustrating the indus- trial life of the Plains Indians. The most notable addition to the William Demuth pipe collection has been the acquisition, from Mr. Francis La Flesche, of a set of ceremonial pipes of the Omaha Indians. The results of the expeditions undertaken by the depart- ment are being pushed as rapidly as possible. Dr. Wissler published a paper on the decorative art of the Sioux, which embodies the results of his researches during the years 1902 and 1903. Dr. Dixon has completed a paper on the ethnology of the Maidu Indians of California, which is in the hands of the printer. Dr. A. L. Kroeber’s description of the ceremonial organi- zation of the Arapaho has been issued. He has handed in manuscripts on the religion of the Arapaho and on the eth- nology of the Gros Ventres, thus finishing the discussion of the results of his expedition to these tribes. “MONIAL HOUSE USED BY WHALERS.

From the Jesup North Pacific Expedition, Mr. Waldemar Bogoras’s memoir on the-Chukchee has been printed and pub- lished by E. J. Brill, Lmt. Dr. John R. Swanton’s description of the Haida of Queen Charlotte Islands has also been issued. At the present time the first part of Mr. Waldemar Jochel- son’s description of the Koryak, containing the religion and myths of the tribe, is in press. The last part of the Kwakiutl Texts, by F. Boas and G. Hunt, is also in press. Mr. Bogoras has handed in his manuscript on the religion of the Chukchee. Dr. John R. Swanton has handed in his volume of Haida mexts: In the summer Dr. Boas, as arepresentative of the Museum, attended the Congress of Americanists held in Stuttgart. The utilization of the Museum collections for purposes of university instruction has continued. ‘The same courses that are mentioned in the Annual Report of 1903 were given dur- ing the present year, and many students carried on their work in the Museum. DEPARTMENT OF ARCH#OLOGY.—The department has re- ceived several valuable accessions during the year by purchase and gift, noteworthy among which is a collection from the prehistoric pueblo ruins of Socorro, New Mexico, the gift of Mrs. Constance S. Mead and family. Five funeral urns from Oaxaca, presented by Mrs. Robert W. De Forest, form an important addition to our exhibit of Zapotecan ceramics. We acquired 366 specimens by the purchase of the Bauer col- lection, chiefly illustrative of the Matlaltzincan culture, which was not represented inthe Mexican collections. The purchase of a large collection of shell implements from the Barbados materially added to our West Indian collection. From the Department of Preparation and Installation we received casts of models of the earthwork known as Fort 22 Report of the President. Ancient and the Serpent Mound in Ohio; also of the Cahokia Mound in Illinois, the largest prehistoric mound in the United States. This model was based ona clay one made for us by Mr. David I. Bushnell, Jr. A model of two effigy mounds, representing animals in Wisconsin was also constructed. The department has begun arrangements with museums and private collectors to obtain the loan of important speci- mens for the purpose of making casts to fill in certain gaps in the Museum collections, and also to be used in connection with the publications resulting from our own expeditions to the North Pacific coast. The Museum has received such loan material from the Peabody Academy of) Sciences, asa cam Mass. ; the Oregon Historical Society, Portland; and Mr. C. P. Wilcomb, of San Francisco. Casts of these specimens have been made by the Department of Preparation and Installation. The department has also begun the work of making casts from some of the noteworthy objects of ancient art from Mexico and Central America for exchange with other museums for Casts of rare nraterial of a like character, “A\set masipeem sent to the United States National Museum, which was exhibited at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis. Arrangements have recently been made for an” exchangese: casts with the Berlin Ethnographical Museum. The specimens received during the year have been cata- logued, and many labels, maps and drawings have been pre- pared and placed with the collections on exhibition. Certain rearrangements in the Mexican Hall have been undertaken, and the West Indian collections have been removed to the South American Hall. | | A synoptic collection was brought together and loaned to Teachers College. This was made up so far as possible from duplicate material. A second collection was selected, labeled and loaned to the Ethical Culture School. This has “been returned and is about to be installed as an exhibit for school children. The following publications have been issued by the department: Report of the President. 23 M. H. Saville. ‘‘ Funeral Urns from Oaxaca.” (Museum Journal, Vol. IV, pp. 49-60, July.) Ad. F. Bandelier. ‘‘On the Relative Antiquity of Ancient Peruvian Burials.” (Bulletin, Vol. XX, Art. XIX, pp. 217-226.) Harlan I. Smith. ‘‘A Costumed Human Figure from Tampico, Washington.” (Bulletin, Vol. XX, Art. XVI, pp. 195-203, May 28.) In addition to the above, Mr. Bandelier has published several papers in the American Anthropologist based on his researches in South America for the Museum. Mr. Smith has secured additional information and illustra- tions for his reports on the archeology of the Northwest, and has been preparing memoirs on the archeology of Puget Sound and the archeology of central Washington. DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY. — During the past year the rooms of the department were provided with cases for the installation of the study collection of insects. This col- lection has been entirely rearranged, and the various collec- tions, which have been kept separate heretofore, have been united so as to make a single series. The collections of North American Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera and Hemiptera have been arranged and labeled, while the work on the exotic species of these families is progressing rapidly. Considerable work on the exhibition collection has also been done. The collection of galls produced by insects has been rearranged and labeled in conformity with Guide Leaflet No. 16, ‘‘On the Insect- Galls of the Vicinity of New York,” which was issued during the latter part of the year. The following collections have been placed on exhibition: Insects injurious to evergreen trees, together with many illustrations, and parts of the trees affected by the different species; clear-winged moths (Sesiidz), with food-plants and colored figures; household insects; insects affecting stored grains; local bees, wasps, etc. (Hymenoptera), and their nests; wasps’ nests from Brazil and elsewhere; and an observation hive containing a swarm of Italian honey bees. Through the generosity of Mr. Samuel V. Hoffman, the Curator made a trip to the Black Mountains, North Carolina, in May and June. This expedition was in continuation of the 24 Report of the President. entomological survey of the Black Mountain region, which has been carried on for some years by the Curator, under grants from the late Very Reverend E. A. Hoffman. Mr. Samuel Hoffman also kindly provided the funds for the purchase of acollection of 3,600 specimens of North American and exotic moths. Messrs. G. A. Goss and A. D. Dodge presented a fine col- lection of beetles from Mt. Kinabalu, British North Borneo. Mr. J. Rhinelander donated a unique example of combs of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) built on the branch of a tree. A collection of butterflies and moths from Sredne-Kolymsk, Province of Yakutsk, Siberia, and a number of imtenesemas wasps’ nests from Brazil have been acquired by purchase. DEPARTMENT OF MINERALOGY AND CONCHOLOGY.—The Bement Collection of Minerals and the Morgan Gem Collec- tion have attracted a very large number of visitors, and have proved of increasing usefulness in extending interest in the mineral products of the United States. Extensive changes in the installment of the Gems have been planned, and the ensu- ing year will see a general expansion in respect to their posi- tion and arrangement, which is expected to improyveweme appearance of this popular feature of the department. A munificent gift from Mrs. Matilda W. Bruce has been received, in the form of an endowment of the Department of Mineralogy. It is an invested sum of $10,000, the interest of which is to be devoted to the purchase of mineralogical specimens, except in so far as its use in the purchase of geo- logical exhibits seems desirable. The minerals demand more room, and projects contem- plating a more complete exhibition of all the material com- posing this important collection will shortly be realized. It is- to be hoped that in the development of the Museum, Economic Mineralogy will receive consideration, and that the remarkable mineral resources of the country, with at least a partial dem- onstration of their uses and treatment, will form part of the exhibits in the Museum halls. Additions by purchase and gifts are recorded in the List of Accessions. ~ 1: AHNIGHITO, OR THE TENT. The largest of the Cape York meteorites. Removal from the Cob Dock, Brooklyn Navy Yard.

Numerous additions by gift and exchange are recorded in the List of Accessions. Considerable interest is taken by a group of students and collectors in the shell collection, and it is to be regretted that this now imposing collection cannot be assigned a hall large enough for its complete display, together with facilities for illustrating local distribution and the domestic molluscan fauna. mhe ime or the Curator has been, apart from the effort made to finish the record of these two large collections, par- tially employed in the current lectures of the Museum. DEPARTMENT OF INVERTEBRATE ZoOOLOGY.—During the past year considerable attention has been given to making the collections in the Synoptic Hall more attractive and com- prehensible to the public. The specimens in nearly all of the alcoves have been provided with permanent printed labels. Dr. Dahlgren with his assistants has made some very fine models of various invertebrates, among which the models of a large Synapta, several species of moss-animals (Polyzoa), a giant Japanese Hydroid (Branchiocerianthus) and a huge Australian sea-anemone (Dyscosoma) are especially note- worthy. During May and June Professor Wheeler accompanied Mr. Chapman on his expedition to the Florida Keys and the Ba- hamas. Dr. Dahlgren joined the party during the latter month. A: considerable number of corals, sea-fans, insects, myriopods, mollusks, etc., were collected on Andros and New Providence Islands. Dr. Dahlgren secured material for a 26 Report of the President. group to illustrate the habits of the land-crabs of the West Indies, the accessories and one specimen for a group of Iguanas, besides color-sketches of corals, mollusks, sea-fans, etc., to be used in constructing a coral reef in the Museum. Many of these drawings have been of great value in making models of some of the larger West Indian mollusks for the synoptic collections. Some of the material collected will be of use in supplying specimens to the New York City schools. There is also a good deal of new and undescribed material among the Bahaman insects and myriopods. Among the numerous acquisitions to the Department dur- ing the past year the following deserve special mention: A large collection of marine invertebrates from Vineyard Sound, Mass., purchased from Mr. F. W. Walmesley; forty-seven species of Coelenterata acquired by exchange with the Dublin Museum, Ireland, through Dr. |. . Duerden: thetabonc- mentioned collection of corals, etc., made in the Bahamas by Professor Wheeler and Dr. Dahlgren; and a fine collection, comprising more than a thousand vials, of spiders from the United States, the work of the late Horace Britcher and do- nated to the Museum by the mother and the friends oirace young naturalist. Several scientific papers have been published during the past year by members of the department. Dr. J. E. Duerden has published the following: ‘‘The Antiquity of the Zoanthid Actinians,”’ ‘‘Recent Results on the Morphology and Develop- ment of Coral Polyps,” ‘‘ The Morphology of the Madrepo- raria V. Septal Sequence,” “The Coral (Szdevastre@ Fadia and its Postlarval Development.” The following have been published by Professor Wheeler: ‘‘ Three New Genera of In- quiline Ants from Utah and Colorado,” ‘‘ The Obligations of the Student of Animal Behavior,” ‘‘ A Crustacean-eating Ant,” ‘The American Ants of the Subgenus Colobopsis,” ‘‘ Ants from Catalina Island, California,” ‘‘ The Ants of North Caro- lina, 7 “CA New lype ior roel Parasitism among Ants,” ‘‘The Phylogeny of the Termites,” etc. Especially valuable and important has been the work ac- complished by Assistant Curator Sherwood in developing and Report of the President. ay deepening the interest of the teachers and pupils of the New York schools in the collections of the Museum and the wide range of subjects which they represent. With the opening of the public schools in the fall of the past year the Museum was prepared to loan the small sets of natural history specimens mentioned in the Annual Report for the year 1903. Soon after registration was completed applications from the teach- ers began to come in for the use of the collections. Few of the schools which had formerly used the collections applied, and later it was learned that, through some misunderstanding, it was thought that the Museum would send the collections without application. An announcement, giving the conditions on which the collections would be loaned, was prepared and sent to all the Manhattan schools. There was an immediate demand for the collections, and by the end of December one hundred and twenty sets were in use in the city. During the fall these have been studied by 40,000 children. To meet the needs of the schools twenty sets of common woods have been prepared. The birds prove to be the most popular with the children, the insects coming next, then the minerals and woods. In fact, the requests for birds and insects are so numerous that it will be necessary to procure additional sets as soon as possible. The circulating collections have now been in use for a year and during that time have been studied by more than 250,000 children. During October, November and December members of the scientific staff gave a series of informal lectures for school- children. The course was arranged at the request of the New York City Teachers’ Association, and the subjects were selected by the Committee on Children’s Interests of the Association, with the purpose of supplementing the regular school work as outlined in the syllabus issued by the Board of Education. The hour selected—Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons at four o’clock—permitted pupils to attend in classes accompanied by their teachers. There were twelve lectures, each of which was delivered three times. A circular was prepared, announcing the lectures and the conditions on which seats would be reserved. These circulars, together 28 Report of the President. with coupons for making applications for the reservation of seats, were sent to all the public schools of Greater New York. At first it was thought that one of the small assembly rooms in the Museum would accommodate all that would attend, but as soon as the announcements had been generally distributed, this hall proved to be entirely inadequate, and the lectures were adjourned to the large auditorium, which seats 1428. Again and again every seat in this hall has been taken, and occasionally a special lecture had to be given in the small assembly room for those who could not gain admission to the regular lecture. Frequently several hundred applications were received after all the seats in the hall had been reserved, and the better to meet the demands of these pupils certain of the lectures were repeated Tuesdays and Thursdays. From twenty to thirty schools were represented at each lecture by classes of from ten to two hundred pupils each. There can be no doubt of the popularity of these lectures, as the attend- ance from October 3 to December 23 was 25,000. The Department of Invertebrate Zodlogy has received from the Department of Preparation and Installation, during the years 1903 and 1904, the following models of marine animals for exhibition in the Synoptic Hall of the Museum: 29 models of Protozoa (Lobosa, Foraminifera, Radiolaria and Infusoria); 13 Hydroids; 1 Actinarian; 19 Planarians; 11 Nemerteans; 8 Polyzoans; 2 Holothurians; ro Mollusks. The Department of Preparation and Installation has also mounted several crustaceans, sponges and insects for the synoptic collection. DEPARTMENT OF PHysioLOoGy.—The equipment of a small laboratory was begun in July. Much time has been spent in studying methods by which the soft structures of animals could be satisfactorily prepared for Museum demonstration. The older methods of preservation in various fluids have long been unsatisfactory, yet it has been impossible to make credit- able preparations in a dry form. To this end a mode of arti- ficial petrification has been used, which thus far has given good results. It is excellently shown in a preparation of the GIANT HYDROID OF THE JAPANESE SEAS.

The entire organ has preserved its natural shape; the characteristic glandular tissue of the rumen is evident; the cellular tissue of the reticulum is distinct; the muscular layers of the psalterium are readily dis- tinguished, and the blood vessels have retained their natural color. A modification of the same method has been extended to the preparation of osteological sections. The specimens are in every way Clean and attractive, showing the structure of the bone and the joint with clearness. Dr. C. W. F. Muenchehofe has begun a series of corrosion preparations of the liver and kidney, which are already prom- ising excellent results. He has also instituted a tentative bacteriological demonstration showing the typical growth of many chromogenic, pathogenic and useful bacteria, which, when completed, will make an instructive display. Acknowledgments should here be extended to the Director of the Aquarium, the Director of the New York Zodlogical Society and the Director of the Central Park Menagerie, for many courtesies received. DEPARTMENT OF PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION.—The Department of Preparation and Installation was established at the beginning of the year 1903 for the purpose of co6érdi- nating some of the more or less similar classes of preparatory work required by the various departments of the Museum and up to that time performed by each of them separately. The function of the new department thus became the preparation of various material for the respective study collections and particularly for purposes of exhibition. Besides this, its primary object, there has been developed ieeice cepartment, under Wr.7B. EH. Dahleren;a line. of Museum work not heretofore seriously attempted in this country—the preparation of biological models. During the short time of its progress this work has been carried on along such lines as the needs of the synoptic zodlogical exhibit required, and a considerable number of forms have been modeled as follows: 30 Report of the President. 1. Models have been made of microscopic forms, espe- cially the Protozoa, many of them enlarged 500-800 diameters, of minute Hydroids, of Planarians, and Polyzoa. 2. Series of models showing consecutive stages in the development of different forms, as the development of a coral polyp. These series in each case embody the results of the researches of investigators of the particular subject with which they deal, and are prepared under their supervision. In exchange for duplicates, material has thus been obtained from Prof. J. 5S. Kingsley, Prof. €@ Jimdson, Perscke ie ame Charles A. Bardeen, and their codperation secured. 3. Models have been prepared, showing the structure or anatomy of some of the more complicated invertebrates, such as the clam and oyster. 4. Models have also been made of a number of inverte- brate forms which, because of their perishable nature, are impossible of satisfactory preservation. The sea anemones and holothurians are good examples. The specimens of birds and mammals received by the Museum during the year have been cared for, and from this material skins and skeletons prepared for the study collec- tions. Some thirty mammals and over one hundred and seventy-five birds have been mounted. A group of Alaska Brown Bears, a group of Peccaries and a group of Roosevelt Elk are under way. The material for the Elk group has been collected during the year; also, among other things, skins and accessories for a group of Beavers. Several Reptile groups are under way, and a group of Land Crabs from the Bahamas has been collected and prepared. A number of small bird groups have been constructed from material collected by Mr. Chapman. Also two large groups of birds—one representing the bird-life of an irri- gated area of the San Joaquin Valley, the other a Flamingo colony. Experiments toward the establishment of satisfactory meth- ods of procedure in the mounting of mammals, reptiles, etc., Report of the President. ail have been carried on during the actual progress of the work, and some satisfactory results have been reached. The current work of preparing maps, labels, and lettering has been performed by the department; also the general work in photography for the Museum. Some relief maps have been modeled and the large Ant- aietle cnuatts now i the foyer have been made. A large number of piece moulds, casts, etc., have been made for various departments, as noted under the departments to which they belong. DEPARTMENT OF BooKs AND PUBLICATIONS.—During the past year the special work has been the cataloguing of the Library, which was necessitated by the adoption of a new and more scientific method of classification; as a result 32,872 volumes have been catalogued with both subject and author index. This work has been under the direct supervision of Miss I. R. Hood. The accessions for the year amounted to 2,931 volumes and 3,103 pamphlets; among which are many valuable serials as well as the more important new books which have appeared during the year. Of special interest has been the gift of the private library of Professor H. C. Bumpus and also the gift of the elephant folio edition of Audubon’s ‘‘ Birds of America,” by Mr. Archi- bald Rogers. Mr. John R. Livermore has given a painting of the White-throated Sparrow, bearing the signature of J. J. Audubon. Prof. Wheeler has presented to the Museum his collections of books and pamphlets on Arachnida, and the Museum has acquired by purchase his library on North American Diptera. On the shelves of the Library will now be found the cur- rent numbers of all the important periodicals relating to natural history, together with the larger number of the publications of the Academies and learned Societies of the world. The book-binding department has been engaged almost entirely in the covering of separata, which have been accumu- lating for many years. 32 Report of the President. During the year 15,573 cards have been received from the Concilium Bibliographicum and intercalated in the original set. This has proved to be one of the most complete and practical bibliographies of biological subjects, and has been much used. In addition to this set the Concilium has recently deposited in the American Museum of Natural History a com- DIeEte Set On its) ieands: These are for the conventencemor American purchasers, who can thus obtain the cards at the same price as from Ziirich, but with the saving of much time. The Museum has undertaken this gratuitously for the benefit of American biologists. During the past year the Museum has sent the following letter to one hundred Institutions in selected centers: ““The American Museum of Natural “Histon desieeanvo place its publications in certain institutions where they may remain as complete sets foralltime. Weare therefore asking you if the name of your library may be placed upon a list of one hundred institutions to receive the ‘Memoirs’ and ‘ Bul- letin’ of the American Museum, with the understanding, first, that these publications be sent gratis, and second, that they shall be made available for reference and study for those in your locality who may be disposed to avail themselves of the general privileges of your institution.” Replies have been received and publications sent to ninety- eight of these institutions.

DEPARTMENT OF Maps AND CHARTS.—The work of pre- paring and classifying the Museum’s large collection of maps has been continued by Dr. Woodward. A large part of the collection is now available for use, having been placed in convenient holders, arranged by subjects, as under states, counties, etc., so as to be readily accessible. Several maps of great rarity are contained in the collection, which now ranks as fourth in importance in New York City. Much use of the collection has been made during the past year, even by per- sons outside of the Museum Staff. Important donations have been received from Gen._ J. Miirmeac beyster Or. 1. CG.

ATTENDANCE.—The number of visitors to the Museum during 1904 was 402,449—a considerable increase over that of previous years. ‘The number of pupils from the schools, public and private, increased from 7,032 in 1903 to 42,380 in 1904, a gain of about Goo per cent. “ This is layoelyene result of the establishment of new and more intimate relations between the Museum and the Public Schools. Members of the scientific staff have been detailed to give lectures espe- cially prepared for the school children. These havewbeea attended by fully 35,000 pupils. As stated elsewhere in this report, the Museum has kept in circulation among the schools about 140 small collections of natural history specimens, thus still further extending the educational work of the Museum among the Public Schools. The number of visitors on holidays is often so great as to tax our resources for their management and accommodation. The attendance at the meetings of the scientific societies held in the Museum has been over 1700; at public lectures, about 44,000, besides the 35,000 present at lectures given to school children. ASSOCIATED SOCIETIES AND ORGANIZATIONS.—AS already noted on an earlier page of this report, two small assembly rooms were: fitted up early in the year for the use sonemme scientific societies which have sought affiliations with the Museum, and also for use as small lecture halls. The follow- ing societies and classes have shared the hospitality of the Museum during the past year: New York Academy of Sciences. New York Entomological Society. Linnzean Society of New York. New York Mineralogical Club. West Side Natural History Society. American Ethnological Society. Sequoya League. Audubon Society of the State of New York. Eighth International Geographic Congress. Dr. J. E. Peabody’s class in Zodlogy. Dr. Clark Wissler’s class in Anthropology. Mr. Julius M. Johnson’s class in Nature Study. Report of the President. 37 TRANSPORTATION.—As heretofore we have been greatly assisted in our field work by the liberality of various railways and transportation companies through the granting of passes to curators and their assistants, in reaching and returning from their distant fields of exploration, and reduced rates of transportation for their collection, without which generous aid extensive field work would be impossible. The list of railways and transportation companies to whom we have been indebted during the past year is as follows: Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fé Railway. | Mexican Central Railway. Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. Mexican National Railway. Chicago & Northwestern Railway. Northern Pacific Railway. Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railway. Southern Railway. : Canadian Pacific Railway. Southern Pacific Company. Canadian Northern Railway. St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad. Erie Railroad. Union Pacific Railroad. Great Northern Railway. Wabash Railroad. Lectures.—The courses of lectures include (1) a course to teachers, (2) a course to members of the Museum, (3) a public course given on holidays, (4) lectures to the children of the public schools, (5) a course under the auspices of the Board of Education of the City of New York, in codperation with the Museum. The spring course to teachers was given as usual by Profes- sor Bickmore under a grant from the State. At the end of this course the State failed to renew the grant, and the fall course, owing to the illness of Professor Bickmore, was given by other members of the Museum Staff.

Important additions have been made to the collections in nearly all departments, and several notable exhibits have for 42 Report of the President. the first time been opened to the public. The educational work has been greatly extended through the special lectures of the scientific staff to the pupils of the public schools, and through the provision of additional circulating collections of natural history specimens. The publications, based on the researches of the scientific staff, have fully maintained the high standard of previous years. The appreciation of the public has been manifested by an increase in the number of visitors, in the lecture attendance and in the addition of more than the usual number of new members; the hopes and expec- tations of the Founders, however, will not be fully realized until a much larger number of citizens of all classes have discovered the pleasure that comes from codperating in good work. There never has been a time when the Museum would more gladly welcome new members, or when membership fees would accomplish more than the present. In closing this Report, and with the utmost regret, | am obliged to announce to the friends of the Museum the loss we sustain in the decease of Mr. Adrian Iselin, one of the original incorporators, for thirty-six years a member of the Board of Trustees, a generous contributor and a sincere friend. Very truly yours, Morris K. Jesup, President. FINANCIAL STATEMENT.

L do hereby give and bequeath to ‘* THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HlIsToRY,” of he Cit) of New York THIRTY-SEVENTH ANNUAL REPORT. To the Trusteesand Members of the American Museum of Natural ffistory: The President submits herewith a report of the affairs of the Museum for the year 1905. Finances.—The financial transactions of the Museum are divided into three separate accounts, and the details of the receipts, expenditures and investments for the year just closed, thus classified, will be found in the Treasurer’s Report, pages 39 to 45 inclusive. ‘These accounts and all books and vouch- ers have been duly examined and certified to by the Audit Com- pany of New York. A few statements may help in making the details of this report clear. Permanent Endowment.—This fund amounts to $1,013,000, the same as noted in the last Report. The interest on this sum provides the principai source of income of the Gen- eral Account, upon which is dependent the purchase of new collections, the maintenance of field parties, the publication of the results of scientific investigations, in short, the general growth of the collections and the continuation and extension of scientific work. It is not sufficient to meet our present needs and an increase of this fund is imperative. . Special Funds.—F¥rom time to time friends of the Museum have united their interest in some special researches, explora- tions or installations, and have provided the means therefor by subscribing to a ‘‘special fund.” In such cases an officer of the Museum has generally acted as treasurer, and the scien- II 12) Report of the President. tific or educational results have been directly contributed to the Museum. City Maintenance Account.—The amount received from the City for the maintenarice of the Museum, $160,000, was the same aS in 1902, 1903 and 1904. Generous as the sum is, it has again proved insufficient to meet the running expenses, and there is a deficit of $19,506.41, or more than double the deficit of a year ago. The steady and normal growth of the Museum makes urgent a larger sum for general running expenses. General Account.—In this account the total receipts from all sources have been $76,897.90. ‘The interest on the Per- manent Endowment Fund amounted to $47,200 (an increase of $12,055 over that of 1904); $3,100 have been received as Life Membership fees, and $14,775 from Annual Members. The total sum from membership fees exceeds that for 1904 by $1,495, the largest amount from this source thus’ far re- corded, and is to be interpreted as an indication of the grow- ing interest that the people of the City are taking in the work of the Museum. It is hoped and expected that this form of income may be increased. BUILDING OPERATIONS.—The west transit, or the approach to the Power House, has been completed and was taken pos- session of by the Museum under its contract with the City. An appropriation of $500,000 has been made by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for ‘‘ finishing and equipping the building and for the construction of additions thereto.” MermBERSHIP.—The total membership on January 1, 1906, was 1,963. te NEw MEMBERS.

WALLACE, LEWIS Harcous, ROBERT L. WHEELOCK, WILLIAM A. Hayes, R. SOMERS WILSON, WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT oF PusLic InsrRucTION.—The ill health of Professor Bickmore, who has faithfully and efficiently served the Museum as the head of this department, has incapacitated him foractive work. The Trustees, however, were very reluc- tant to lose his services, and, in order to lighten his duties as much as possible, they appointed him Curator Emeritus, at the same time expressing their hope that from time to time he might be able to take his accustomed place upon the lecture platform. During the year Professor Bickmore has given four lectures to Members of the Museum and their invited friends, and free lectures to the public on Washington’s Birthday and Thanks- giving Day. He has also generously placed his valuable lantern slides at the disposal of the Curators for use in the Report of the President. 15 children’s lectures, and in other ways has shown his continued devotion to the institution with which his life has been identified. DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND INVERTEBRATE PALAON- TOLOGY.—Several investigators in this branch of science have spent considerable time at the Museum examining the collec- tions, and assistance has been given others by loaning specimens, etc. Early in the year, the Associate Curator, Dr. Hovey, was granted leave of absence for eleven weeks, in order that he might join an expedition to northwestern Mexico for the pur- pose of examining the mineral resources of the region. As the region traversed was one entirely new to geologists, Dr. Hovey secured for the Museum 325 specimens of minerals, 425 valuable negatives and data for several scientific papers. In September, Dr. Hovey was sent to Portland, Oregon, to examine the famous ‘‘ Willamette ” meteorite. While on this mission, he procured valuable series of ores and other eco- nomic products from Montana, Colorado, Oregon, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, California and Alaska, together with series of samples illustrating the separation of platinum, gold and other valuable substances from ocean and river sands. The Curator has prepared for publication an article ‘‘Notice of Jurassic Fossils from Franz Josef Land,” and the Associate Curator, besides continuing to have charge of the Museum Journal, has published several papers. A series of instructive models, or relief maps, of the island of Martinique and of the volcano of Mt. Pelé has been pre- pared by the Department of Preparation and Installation and placed in the exhibition hall. The models represent the volcano at three stages of its history: (a) at the time of its first eruption, May 8, 1902; (b) at the close of the period of its greatest activity, August 30, 1902, and (c).in April and May, 1903, when the marvelous cone and surmounting spine found within the crater were at their maximum development. 16 Report of the President. DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY AND ORNITHOLOGY.—Several important installations of gréups have been finished and others. are wellunder way. Thestriking Flamingo Group and a group illustrating the bird life of the irrigated portion of the San Joaquin Valley, California, have been completed and opened to the public. Two Bahama bird groups, the White-crowned Pigeon and Ani, have been. installed, and considerable work has been done on the Sandhill Crane and Pelican Island groups. Of mammals, the Mexican Collared Peccary has been com- pleted, and progress has been made in the preparation of the Roosevelt Elk, the big Alaskan Peninsula Bear, Coati, Ante- lope and Polar Bear groups. Mr. J. H. Batty has continued to collect in Mexico for the Museum, and has prepared and shipped 1,520 mammal skins and 1,680 bird skins, besides numerous reptiles and inverte- brates which have been turned over to the Department of In- vertebrate Zodlogy. Most of this material was collected in the State of Jalisco, and includes some very valuable species. On an expedition to the State of Washington in search of elk, Mr. J. D. Figgins obtained accessories for the Elk Group and specimens and accessories for a Beaver Group. The beaver is particularly interesting as representing a form pecul- iar to the humid region of the Northwest. Besides the accessions already noted, special mention should be made of asplendid series of skulls of the Hippopotamus and the Giraffe, the gift of Mr. George S. Bowdoin; 358 mammals and 525 birds, collected in Chiriqui, Panama, the gift of Mr. J. H. Batty, and various specimens of mammals and birds, received in the flesh, through the courtesy of the New York ZoG6logical Society and the Central Park Menagerie. A notable acquisition has been received from Miss M. R. Audubon and Miss Florence Audubon. It comprises several original colored drawings of great value and articles of dress and field equipment belonging to their grandfather, the eminent naturalist and bird lover, John James Audubon. In the collection are many sketches and paintings made by his son, J. W. Audubon. as.

The general work of the department has progressed satis- factorily. The cataloguing and identification of the birds col- lected by Mr. J. H. Batty, and the rearrangement of the study collections of birds have been continued by Mr. Miller under Mr. Chapman's supervision. The index, or systematic cata- logue of mammals, is well advanced. DEPARTMENT OF VERTEBRATE PALZONTOLOGY.—The most noticeable event in the work of this department was the comple- tion of the installation of the greatamphibious Dinosaur, Bronto- saurus, discovered near Medicine Bow, Wyoming, by the Museum Expedition of 1898, and collected during the summer of 1899. This gigantic reptile is nearly’70 feet in length and over 15 feet in height; it occupies the center of the new Hall of Fossil Reptiles. The Brontosaurushas attracted a great deal of atten- tion in the press, and has proved to be one of the most interesting exhibits in the Museum. Other noteworthy installations have been the skeletons of Dzplodocus, a long-limbed Dinosaur ; Oruttholestes, a small ‘‘bird-catching”’ Dinosaur; Stegosaurus, an armored herbivorous Dinosaur; MHadrosaurus, a duck- billed herbivorous Dinosaur; Al/osaurus, a bipedal car- nivorous Dinosaur; also of the great skull of Z*77ceratops, a three-horned herbivorus Dinosaur, and finally of portions of the skeleton of Zyrannosaurus,a newly-discovered carnivorous and bipedal Dinosaur of immense size. The fine exhibit of fossil turtles and tortoises, occupying two alcoves in the Dino- saur Hall, is now nearly complete. The mounting of the splendid mammoth skeleton from Indi- anais nearing completion. This fine skeleton is a most impor- tant addition in filling in the gaps in our series of fossil mammal skeletons, and will make a striking centerpiece for the hall. It is a mammoth of the largest size, standing fully 13 feet high, considerably exceeding the skeleton in the St. Petersburg Museum, and quite as large as the skeleton in the Paris Museum. The skeleton of a four-toed horse, obtained in the _ Bridger Basin last summer, is being prepared. This will give 18 Report of the President. us the Middle Eocene stage in the evolution of the Horse, inter mediate between the Lower Eocene and Oligocene horse skel- etons now on exhibition. The field explorations have yielded several important acces- sions. The Harriman expedition to Bone Cabin Quarry suc- ceeded in obtaining a considerable part of the skeleton of another of the small Dinosaurs of the Jurassic Period. These reptiles are as yet incompletely known, but probably they were characteristic animals of the dry land during the Age of Rep- tiles. The expedition to the Cretaceous of Montana was a very successful one. By dint of extensive and heavy quarrying the greater part of the skeleton of the giant carnivorous Dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus, was obtained. .From the Bridger Basin was obtained a number of speci- mens of which the most important is a mountable skeleton of the four-toed horse, Orohippus. Three years of exploration in this basin, the richest locality in this country for fossil verte- brates of the Eocene period, have added to our collections a splendid series of skulls and skeletons, especially of the smaller species hitherto very imperfectly known. DEPARTMENT oF ANTHROPOLOGY.—Considerable progress has been made in cataloguing the new collections received during the year and also several not previously catalogued. The problem of storing duplicate and study specimens has been a difficult one. Early in the fall the rooms vacated by the Department of Preparation and Installation were assigned to this department and were equipped with a number of large. storage cases. This additional room has made it possible to classify a large amount of material and to arrange it satis- factorily. The time of Dr. Clark Wissler, the Acting Curator, has been taken up with the routine duties of his office, the care of the exhibition halls and the general supervision of the work of the department. He has continued his investigations of the ethnology of the Plains Indians, giving special attention to their material culture, and in addition, he is engaged in a Report of the President. 19 general ethnographic survey of North America, in order to determine the limits of the different culture areas. In January, Dr. Farrand resigned as Associate Curator in order to accept the executive secretaryship of the National As- sociation for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. While we extend our heartiest congratulations to Dr. Farrand on his new appointment, we feel the keenest regret that the Museum has lost the services of an efficient officer. Dr. Laufer, Mr. Pepper and Mr. Bandelier have made progress in their respective departments. The field work has yielded good results. Dr. William Jones is now visiting the Ojibway Indians, where he is studying their religious and industrial life. Dr. P. E. Goddard has secured important data among the Sarcee Indians, a tribe living upon the border between the plains and the forest and presenting two types of culture. Mr. Edward Sapir has made a small collection at the Yakima Indian Reservation. Mr. Frank G. Speck has been working among the Uchee Indians. Miss Constance G. DuBois has been doing volunteer work among the Mission Indians. J. B. Walker, M.D., is continuing his volunteer work among the Dakota. Mr. D. C. Duvall has added materially to our Blackfoot collections. Perhaps the most important accession received has been the extensive and valuable collection, illustrating the eth- nology of the Philippine Islands, which was secured at St. Louis and presented to the Museum by the President. Other notable accessions are extensive African collections, the gift of Mr. George S. Bowdoin; a unique ‘‘mummy”’ from South America, presented by Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan; a large collection of baskets and ceremonial objects, by Mr. Adolph Lewisohn; a number of valuable Indian specimens, by Mrs. Albert Bierstadt, and a fine collection of Socorro pottery by Mr.. George G. Heye. Through the generosity of Mr. George Foster Peabody, Mr. Robert C. Ogden and Mr. Arthur Curtiss James, the Museum has received a valuable oil painting, entitled, ‘‘ The Song of the Innookshuee.”’ The painting was made in 1894, by Mr. F. W. Stokes, while in Greenland with Commander 20 Report of the President. Peary. In accordance with the wish of the donors it has been placed in the Library, where it may be seen by the public. MEXICAN AND CENTRAL AMERICAN ARCH ZOLOGY.—Through exchanges with other institutions, material has been received which greatly strengthens the Museum’s exhibit of Mexican archeology, largely given us by the Duke of Loubat. The rearrangement of the collections in the Mexican Hall has been continued with a view to bringing out the distinction between the different cultures of Mexico, South) /@emec America and Panama. The most important work done, however, was the painting of the cast of the sculptured side of a room in the ruins of Chichen Itza, Yucatan. Through the assistance of Miss Adela Breton, of England, we are able to show the painting of the sculptures as they probably appeared in ancient times. This painting has brought out the figures to a remarkable extent and has added a great deal of interest to the cast. Jesup NortaH Paciric ExPpEDITION.—Since May, Professor Boas has paid particular attention to the publication of the results of this expedition. The memoirs are being printed by E. J. Brill, of Leiden, and the following parts were issued during 1905: Vol, III, Part III. .‘‘Kwakiutl Texts.” By Franz Boas and George Hunt. ; Vol. V, Part I. ‘‘Contributions to the Ethnology of the Haida of Queen Charlotte Islands.” By John R. Swanton. Vol. VI, Part I. ‘‘Religion and Myths of the Koryak.’’ By Waldemar Jochelson. In connection with the researches among the North Ameri- can Indians, Professor Boas has discussed the anthropo- metric material collected by Dr. Dixon and others on expe- ditions to California. This paper was published as Part IV of Volume XVII of the Bulletin. Dr. Dixon has prepared the ‘4 ce & eA ~ THE GEM HALL. llation of gems and prec ious stones, ew insta N Report of the President. 21 manuscript of the description of the Shasta, which, as Part V, will close Volume XVII. East AsIaATIC COMMITTEE.—During the past year the field work was concluded and Dr. Laufer has devoted his time to the classification and arrangement of the Chinese collection, and to his researches on the collection of ancient Chinese pottery. His manuscript on the pottery of the Han period is practically completed. To assist him in his studies, Dr. Laufer has made use of several collections of Chinese pottery belong- ing to art collectors, generously loaned to him for the purpose, and in this connection we wish especially to acknowledge the courtesies extended by Mr. Marsden J. Perry, of Providence, R.1I., and Mr. Thomas B. Clarke and Mr. R. H. Williams, of New York City. DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY.—Good progress has been made in rearranging the collections and in installing new exhibits. Of special mention are specimens representing six races of the honey-bee; a series of queen cells; some unusual forms of comb of the domesticated honey-bee, built on branches of trees, and wax models of certain insect-galls. There are now on exhibition 22,600 specimens of insects, nevertheless much is yet to be added to bring the collection up to a proper standard of completeness and usefulness. The Curator has procured 1,800 insects, which he has mounted in sixty cases for circulation in the public schools. Each case illustrates the life-history of the cecropia moth, development of the monarch butterfly, life and work of the honey-bee, and common household pests. Arrangements have been made with the following experts for the identification of special groups of insects, and their assistance is gratefully acknowledged: Me orto PMerdematin :. iii...

DEPARTMENT OF MINERALOGY AND CoONCHOLOGY.—The attractiveness of the Morgan Gem Collection continues and has been increased by giving it more commodious quarters and by installing itin more appropriate cases. The entire room has been assigned to gems and to the more striking minerals. Large showy specimens have been placed in the wall cases in such a way as to bring out their beauty to the best advantage. Appro- priate labels are being prepared, and in a few weeks the installation will have been completed. Again we are indebted to Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan for his generosity in adding nearly two hundred specimens to this already priceless collection. The income from the Bruce Fund has made possible the purchase of a number of desirable minerals, among which may be mentioned twenty-eight specimens of amber and a jade labret of remarkable character. One of the notable acquisitions during the year was a very large number of miscellaneous shells from the Philippine {[slands, which formed part of the Philippine exhibit at St. Louis secured by the Museum. With the aid of these shells, many lacune in the collection have been filled. DEPARTMENT OF INVERTEBRATE ZoOLoGy.—During the early part of the year a card catalogue of the fishes was taken up and the study collections cleaned and carefully rearranged. heport of the President. 23 Considerable work has been done in the Synoptic Hall, which is now also used as temporary quarters for the mounted collection of reptiles and batrachians. Groups of the follow- ing forms have been mounted and placed in this hall: Land- crabs of the Bahamas, Copperhead Snakes, Mexican Iguana, Mexican Heloderma, and Texas Rattlesnakes. Two collec- tions representing the local reptiles and amphibians have also been installed. These latter were brought together to illus- trate two guide leaflets, written by R. L. Ditmars, of the New York ZoGdlogical Park, and published by the Museum. Dr. Dahlgren and Mr. Mueller have constructed twelve models of marine and fresh-water invertebrates, nearly com- pleting the series of Coelenterate types and making an impor- tant addition to the Rotiferan and Polyzoan alcoves, which hitherto have been almost empty. Descriptive labels of the new groups have been completed. Among a number of important acquisitions, special mention should be made of a fine series of Philippine corals, a mag- nificent sea-fan and two enormous Tridacna shells, all pur- chased by the Museum. During May, Dr. Wheeler, the Curator, made an expedition to New Mexico, Arizona and California for the purpose of studying the invertebrate fauna and the vegetation of the desert. The nesting habits of several interesting species were observed for the first time, and valuable photographs of nest architect- ure, characteristic desert environment, etc., were secured. The Assistant Curator, Mr. Sherwood, has given all of his time to superintending and making up the school collections and organizing and participating in the lectures to the school children at the Museum. The small nature-study collections which the Museum loans to the public schools of the City proved so useful to teachers, and the demand for them was so great, that it was found necessary to increase their number. During the summer more than 600 bird skins were purchased and mounted, and new collections of insects and woods were prepared. At the present time there are 4oo cabinets of specimens available for this work, representing birds, insects, mollusks, crabs, starfishes, worms, corals, sponges and native ) 24 Report of the President. woods. During the school year, ending June 30, 1905, these cabinets were in use in 200 schools and were studied by more than 375,000 children. These specimens are used by the teachers not only for pure nature-study work, but as models for drawing lessons, written and oral language work, conversation lessons, dictation exercises and in connection with reading. Continuing the work inaugurated last year, a spring and a fall course of informal lectures for school children have been delivered at the Museum by members of the scientific staff. There were thirty-six lectures in each course, a detailed list of which will be found on page 33. . The lectures were given on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons and were very popular. More than 20,000 pupils attended the spring series, : and fully 15,000 were present during the fall course. An unusual number of classes has visited the Museum for purposes of study, and frequently teachers have asked to have ~ the classrooms reserved, in order that they might give their pupils special lectures. At the request of a number of teachers and principals of West Side schools, a laboratory course on birds and insects was arranged for teachers, and Mr. Jules M. Johnson, of the Morris High School, was engaged to conduct it. About 50 teachers attended. It is gratifying to report the increased use in this man- ner of the Museum’s collections, and the continued friendly relations which exist between this institution and the various ‘branches of the school system of the City. DEPARTMENT OF PHysioLoGcy.—By an arrangement made early in the year, this department has had under its direction the caré of the animals received at the Museum: andigewe preparation of skeletons. Dr. C. W. Muenchehofe has had immediate charge of this work and has personally performed most of the autopsies. More than two hundred animals have been received in the flesh, as noted in the list of accessions; sixty autopsies have been performed, and eighty-one complete skeletons and twenty- three skulls have been prepared. CRESTED CASSIQUE GROUP. The funds for collecting and mounting this’group were provided by friends ofthe Museum who have contributed : to the North American Ornithological Fund. a Birds mounted by Herbert Lang. Group prepared by J. D. Figgins, Report of the President. 25 The preparation of skeletons by the old process is very slow, several weeks being required to complete a single skele- ton. This method is entirely inadequate to take care of the material received. After many experiments, the department has adopted a process of digestion with trypsin in an alkaline solution, which is not only a rapid method but leaves the bones in a perfectly sweet condition as well as avoiding many of the injuries, particularly to small bones, which occur by maceration. This work is greatly hampered, however, by the lack of proper equipment and suitable quarters. Satisfactory progress has been made in the preparation of corrosion specimens of the various organs of the animal body. } A part of the room west of the Mexican Hall has been allotted to the department for exhibition purposes. A general plan of installation has been tentatively formulated, illustrat- ing the chemical constitution of man and the various functions performed by the different organs of the body. Some of the material for this exhibit is well under way. Dr. George W. Crary, a well-known specialist of this City, has given to the department the benefit of his wide experience and is making a comparative histological study of the skin of vertebrates. It is expected that from these preparations wax models can be constructed which will be valuable for Museum exhibition. We are pleased to acknowledge the many courtesies ex- tended to the Museum by the Director of the Aquarium, the Director of the New York Zodlogical Society and the Director of the Central Park Menagerie. DEPARTMENT OF PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION.—The members of this department have been fully occupied. A large number of models of invertebrates have been completed, the accessories for several bird and mammal groups have been prepared, and installations of these have been made, as noted under the various departments. The making of casts and the general photographic work for the Museum have been under the direction of this department. 26 Report of the President. During the summer the laboratories in the new power wing were completed and the equipment was transferred in Sep- tember to the new quarters. These rooms are commodious and well adapted to the needs of the department. Several of those working under Dr. Dahlgren were trans- ferred to Mr. J. D. Figgins, who now has general charge of the preparation of the higher animals and of plants for exhi- bition purposes, and the making of archzological models and replicas. Mr. James L. Clark has been placed in charge of the mounting of all large mammals and reptiles. DEPARTMENT OF BooKs AND PuUBLICATIONS.—The ener- gies of the department have been especially devoted to cata- loguing, and this important work is now completed for the en- tire Library, with the exception of a few sections. During the year 4,948 volumes, 871 numbers, and 9,128 pamphlets have been classified and catalogued. These, added to the work previously completed, give the Library a total of 32,014 vol- umes and 16,584 pamphlets properly classified, catalogued and ready for use. The more important accessions for the year are a gift from Professor J. A. Allen of 3,793 pamphlets; a. otit: frome: William M. Wheeler of many articles on entomology; a gift from Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan of seven volumes of plates of the fishes from the island of Mauritius; a purchase of 7oo plates on Animal Locomotion by Muybridge; a gift of 218 volumes from the estate of the late George L. Hyslop; a gift from Miss A. A. Drummond of 24 volumes, and a gift from General J. Watts de Peyster of 15 volumes. During the year, 15,069 cards from the Concilium Biblio- graphicum have been received and distributed in the Concil- ium System. There has also been received on deposit one complete set of cards, to which have been added 15,069 cards during the year, according to the agreement between the American Museum and the Concilium Bibliographicum. Following is a list of the scientific publications of the Museum issued in 1905, as received by the Curator for distri- bution and exchange: A RADIOLARIAN.

The attendance for 1904 was 402,449, a considerable gain over that of previous years, but during 1905, 565,489 visitors were recorded, an increase of more than 25% over the figures for 1904. This growing popularity of the Museum is due in part to the opening of several striking exhibits, particularly the huge Brontosaurus, and the Flamingo and San Joaquin Valley bird groups; to the improvement of the installation of old collections, and to the continued intimate relations between the Museum and the Public Schools. More than 46,000 children have visited the Museum in classes for lectures and 30 Report of the President. purposes of study, and about 50,000 people have been present at the various public lectures. ASSOCIATED SOCIETIES AND ORGANIZATIONS.—The two small assembly rooms have been improved by changes remedy- ing, in a great measure, their defective acoustic properties, and throughout the year they have been in great demand for the meetings of various scientific societies which have sought affiliation withthe Museum. Occasionally the large auditorium has been required for the accommodation of such organizations. Early in the year the Board of Education of the City asked permission for the temporary use of one of the exhibition halls in which to install the collections illustrating the work done in the public schools, and comprising the exhibit of the Board at the St. Louis Exposition. ‘This was desired in order that the public might become more familiar with the work that the schools are doing, and that the teachers might have an opportunity to study the methods and results of others. The East Mammal Hall was assigned for this purpose and was occupied by the school exhibit from March till August. In November the Siberian Hall was given over to the American Tuberculosis Exhibition for the display of an instructive exhibit showing the results of the dread disease and the best methods to check its spread. In connection with the exhibition eminent men delivered lectures at the Museum on various phases of this important subject. The Board of Health of the City was given permission to use one of the small assembly rooms for the temporary installation of its exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition. The following societies and classes have shared the hospi- tality of the Museum during the past year: New York Academy of Sciences. New York Entomological Society. Linnzean Society of New York. New York Mineralogical Club. Audubon Society of the State of New York. National Association of Audubon Societies for the Protection of Wild Birds and Animals. American Chemical Society. / “uInasny] 243 Je payuNoyT 499} XIS IO BAY JO YIBud] vO} SuIMOID udijo ‘paezi] [eoIdo1} pajseso odiv'T “"VNVND] NVOIXAJN Report of the President. ar Germanistic Society of America.

TRANSPORTATION.—The increase of the scope of the Museum’s work necessitates extended explorations. These explorations are too often limited in their results, especially in distant fields, because of the difficulties of transporting the material secured. The generous aid, however, of various railways in granting passes to our curators and assistants to and from their distant fields of explorations and in carrying the collections at reduced rates has made possible field opera- tions which otherwise would not have been undertaken, and I wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to these companies. The following have extended many courtesies to us during the past year: Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. Canadian Northern Railway. Canadian Pacific Railway. Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railway. Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway. Chicago & Northwestern Railway. Erie Railroad. Great Northern Railway. Northern Pacific Railway.

LrecTures.—Several lecture courses have been delivered during the year. These include (1) a spring and a fall course to Members of the Museum, (2) a public course g. on holidays, (3) a course given in conjunction with Colu.uo University, (4) a spring and a fall course to ils of ue public schools, (5) a nature study course to teachers, (6) a course under the auspices of the Board of Education of the City of New York, in codperation with the Museum.

In concluding this my quarter of a century of service as the President of the American Museum of Natural History, I cannot refrain from referring to the Report of twenty-five years ago, when the Urustees stated that -“they imostaqce spectfully appeal to the generous citizens of New York, to aid in the effort to make our Metropolitan City the centre of the highest scientific culture in our land, and to join in adding new collections and new departments to the admirable nucleus which has been already secured.” As your President it has been my constant effort to fulfil the desires as expressed by the Report of the President. 30 Trustees which were so clearly formulated at the time of my appointment, and when we view the stately building in Man- hattan Square, when we wander through the exhibition halls and study the priceless collections therein displayed, when we realize that thousands of the people of our City are assembling here to listen to prominent educators, that school children are here receiving their first love for nature and their first taste of science, and that the influence of this institution is being felt throughout the civilized world, truly we can say that the appeal of 1881 to the generous citizens of New York has not remained unanswered. | Very respectfully yours, Morris K.

At the Regular Quarterly Meeting of the Board of Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History, held May 8, 1905, the following Minute was adopted: The Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History record with profound sorrow and regret the loss of their esteemed friend and associate, ADRIAN ISELIN. Mr. Iselin aided in the preliminary efforts to establish the Museum; was one of its original incorporators in 1869, and served as a Trustee during a period of thirty-six years. Mr. Iselin rendered efficient service for many years asa member of the Executive, Finance, and Auditing Committees, and was ever faithful in the discharge of his duties as a ‘Trus- tee. In later years his failing health prevented his regular attendance at the meetings of the Board, greatly to the regret of his associate Trustees, but his interest in the growth and advancement of the Museum was unrelaxed, and was evinced by his generous contributions for the enlargement of its col- lections and for its maintenance. In his death the Museum suffers a great loss. Mr. Iselin belonged to the class of public spirited citizens, who find in the promotion of the public welfare and in the full discharge of their duties to their fellow-men, ample reward for their conscientious efforts, and who leave after them a loving remembrance of good deeds unpretentiously performed. Teck: At the Adjourned Meeting of the Board of Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History, held February 8, 1906, the following Minute was adopted: The Trustees desire to record their sense of loss in the death of JOHN H. WINSER for so many years the faithful Secretary and Assistant Treas- urer of the Museum. Mr. Winser was appointed to his office in 1892, and for fourteen years served the Board of Trustees and the officers of the staff of the’ Museum with the greatest fidelity. He was invariably accurate in all his accounts and records, absolutely trustworthy in all matters of administration, devoted to the best interests of the Museum, giving its interests his very con- stant thought and attention, and extremely courteous and kindly in his manner. When acting under the direction of the President or other members of the Board he could always be depended upon to faithfully represent their wishes and instruc- tions. During all the long years of his service he never failed to do his duty to the best of his ability. His genial and kindly presence will be greatly missed at the Museum.

L do hereby give and bequeath to ‘‘ THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL History,’ of the Cay of New York, THIRTY-EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT. To the Trusteesand Members of The American Museum of Natural fiistory : The President submits herewith a report of the affairs of the Museum for the year 1906. Finances.— As described in an earlier number of the Report, the financial transactions of the Museum have been carried in three separate accounts, designated as the City Maintenance Account, the General Account and the Endow- ment and Investment Account. The details of the receipts and disbursements, thus classified, will be found in the Treas- urer’s Report, pages 35 to 41 inclusive. All books and vouchers of these accounts have been duly examined and certi- fied by the Audit Company of New York. A few statements may help in making the details of this report clear. Permanent Endowment.—The interest on the Permanent Endowment, $47,880, constitutes the principal source of in- come of the General Account. The urgency for a substantial increase in the Permanent Endowment is evident when it is remembered that appropriations from the City cannot be used for the purchase of specimens, for carrying on field work or for publications. City Maintenance Account.—The Museum has received from the City for maintenance $170,000, an increase of $10,000 over the appropriations for maintenance of the last four years. Although the City has thus generously increased its contribu- tion, the sum has been insufficient to meet the increased cost of maintenance entailed by the opening of new exhibition halls and storage rooms and the care of collections recently re- ceived. A deficit of $2,924.04 in the running expenses has been met by the Trustees. Vege 12 Report of the President. General Account.—Upon this account, as stated above, the regular development of the collections of the Museum and the extension of its scientific work are largely dependent. Con- tributions to this fund are especially desired. During the year 1906 the total income of this account has been $74,771.17. The interest on the Permanent Endowment Fund amounted to $47,880; Life Membership fees totaled $1,400, and $14,710 were received from Annual Members. Endowment and Investment Account.—V ery frequently friends of the Museum, through their own interest in some particular collection or subject, contribute funds for advancing such work. These sums are carried in the Endowment and Invest- ment Account, which is composed almost wholly of funds OF. special purposes. The contributions in this account have been very generous, the total receipts amounting to $67,608.68, a sum more than three times as great as that received last year. BUILDING OPERATIONS.—The contract for the construction of the south section of the West Facade, namely, the first construction on Columbus Avenue, was awarded to Messrs. Guidone & Galardi for $325,000. Ground was broken for the new wing on May 25, 1906, and the work has progressed satis- factorily. Unless unforeseen obstacles arise, the building should be completed in contract time. The installation of fire lines and sprinkler systems (made by Gerstle & Company under the appropriation of $500,000 in 1905) has finally been completed, and the building is now sup- plied with adequate fire preventing and fire fighting appliances. By special permission of the City authorities, the Museum has been allowed to pay its carpenters, masons, painters, etc., who have been engaged on new construction, out of the building appropriation. Under this arrangement a large number of new exhibition cases, storage drawers and rooms have been constructed. | In the north basement a large amount of rock has been ex- cavated, thereby bringing the floor of the basement through- (‘g06r ‘judy poejajdwog) “adOlaINY NVOIYAWY AO ‘NYOHONOUY | Report of the President. 13 out the building to aneven grade. Six large fire-proof storage vaults have been finished and four are nearing completion. A number of similar fire-proof store-rooms have been begun in the attic. Thirty-five thousand square feet of wall space have been painted and 11,300 square feet of concrete laid. MEMBERSHIP.—The total membership on January 1, 1907, was 2,046, divided into classes as follows: Patrons, 95; Fellows, 41; Life Members, 345; Annual Members, 1,565. New MEMBERS. The following persons were elected Patrons: Mrs. F. A. CONSTABLE, ADOLPH LEWISOHN, Mrs. WILLIAM E. DODGE, J. G. PHEEPS STOKES, SAMUEL V. HOFFMAN, Mrs. FRANK K. STURGIS.

Sherwood was appointed Assistant Secretary and Assistant Treasurer, to fill the. vacancy caused by the, death of Mire \onmeees Winser, who for fourteen years had served the Museum as Secretary and Assistant Treasurer. Mr. J. B. Foulke, as Administrative. Assistant, has con- tinued to have direct supervision of the engineer’s, the car- penter’s and the custodian’s forces, and has introduced a number of changes which have improved the general admin- THE SKELETON OF NAosAuRus.

DEPARTMENT OF PusBLic INSTRUCTION.—The prolonged illness of Professor Bickmore made it inadvisable for him to continue in active charge of this department, of which he had been the efficient head since its foundation, and while he still remained Curator Emeritus, Mr. Sherwood was made Curator. At the same time all the work connected with the public schools and the lecture system was placed under the direction of this department, aswell as the general photographic work and the custody of all negatives, photographs, electros and slides belonging to the Museum. Important relations continue to exist between the Museum and the school system of the City. So far as possible all requests for nature collections have been granted, although this has necessitated the purchase of several hundred new specimens and the construction of new cabinets. The records show that during the year 300 schools have been supplied with collections which were studied by more than 800,000 school children. Various courses of lectures were arranged and given as stated later in this report. One of these was the ‘‘ Children’s Course,’’ which was attended by 17,187 pupils. Besides.a large number of photographs for illustrating the Museum Fournal, Bulletin and other publications, the photo- graphic work has included the making of many negatives for use in the preparation of exhibits and for future reference. Writers, artists and illustrators have frequently consulted our photograph files, and many have been supplied with prints for publication. DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY AND INVERTEBRATE PALAON- TOoLOoGy.—The cataloguing of the collections of. American fossils has been completed, showing a total of 10,416 species represented. Similar work is now being done on the European fossils. The collection of building and ornamental stones has been temporarily installed in the Hall of North American Woods. 16 | Report of the President. The Curator has published in the Bulletin a paper entitled ‘‘Notes on Some Jurassic Fossils from Franz Josef Land,” and, jointly with the Associate Curator, a paper ‘‘ Remarks on and Descriptions of Jurassic Fossils of the Black Hills.” Dr. Hovey has continued to attend to the publication of the American Museum Journal, with the exception of the October. issue which was edited by Mr. Chapman. He has also assisted in the Members’ course of lectures, in the chil- dren’s course and in the holiday lectures. During the summer Dr. Hovey was granted leave of absence to enable him to attend the Tenth International Geological Congress held in Mexico, at which he represented the Museum. On the expeditions in connection with the Congress a valuable series of rocks, ores and fossils was secured for the Museum, together with about 450 negatives of characteristic scenery. DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY AND ORNITHOLOGY.—Several noteworthy gifts have been received in this department. Among the first should be mentioned the generous contribu- tions of Mr. George S. Bowdoin for the development of the Museum’s collection of Cetacea (whales, dolphins, porpoises, etc.). This is a most important work, as these animals are decreasing in numbers so rapidly that their extinction is not far distant. Mr. Bowdoin’s gift has enabled the Museum to purchase a complete skeleton of a Fin-baek Whale more than seventy feet in length, and five skeletons of smaller whales, including the very rare species Mlesoplodon layard:. A life-size model of a Sulphur-bottom Whale, measuring seventy-six feet in length, is nearing completion. The widespread interest taken in the bird groups, men- tioned in earlier reports, and their evident educational value induced the original subscribers to the North American Orni- thology Fund and some of their friends to make additional contributions for carrying on this important work. Under this gift, Mr. Chapman went into the field in May and spent three months in collecting material for new groups and in making studies of the bird life of the regions visited. The Prairie Hen Group, Arizona Desert Group and Golden Eagle Report of the President. 1b) Group (all of which have been completed), not to mention other groups in preparation, show some of the results of the expedition. The Water Turkey Group and the rearrangement of the Brown Pelican Group have been finished. In the preparation of these exhibits several new features of installa- tion have been introduced with gratifying results. Twenty- nine birds have been mounted to show the different types of bills and their adaptation to methods of feeding. The expedition in Mexico came to an end in May through the untimely death of Mr. J. H. Batty. The list of accessions includes a collection of mammals from Hainan, China, containing thirteen species new to science. Again we are indebted to the New York Zodlogical Society and to the Central Park Menagerie for many courtesies and for the donation of several mammals and birds in the flesh. The total number of accessions for the year was 638 mammals and g1ts5 birds. While the Curator has supervised the routine work of the department, he has continued his scientific researches. His duties as editor of the Luwlletin are exacting, nevertheless he has published two papers and has several others in preparation. DEPARTMENT OF VERTEBRATE PALZONTOLOGY.—The total collection of fossil vertebrates numbers between 17,000 and 18,000 catalogued specimens, all of which have been identified, labeled and fully recorded, besides about a thousand specimens not yet catalogued. Among the most striking specimens placed on exhibition . may be mentioned the Columbian Mammoth; the Glyftodon, a largé mammal related to the armadillo, but with a solid shell like a tortoise; the Z7yrannosaurus, a huge carnivorous dino- saur, almost as large as the Lrontosaurus, and another extinct reptile, the Vaosaurus, with a remarkable bony dorsal fin. The department has been indebted repeatedly to Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan for many generous gifts, but his latest dona- tion, namely, the Warren Mastodon Collection, eclipses all others. The principal specimen in this collection is that of the Warren Mastodon skeleton. It is one of the largest in 18 Report of the President. size, complete except for the tusks and a few of the phalanges, and is ina remarkably perfect state of preservation. Other valuable specimens in the Warren Collection are a mastodon skull and jaws, a skeleton of Zewglodon, a series of dinosaur footprints and a series of casts of European fossil mammals. Another noteworthy gift was the skeleton of the race-horse ‘¢ Sysonby,’’ presented to the Museum by Mr. James R. Keene. During the summer three parties were sent into the field under the direction of Professor Osborn. One, immediately in charge of Mr. Barnum Brown, continued exploration in the Hell Creek region of Montana and yielded several important fossil reptiles, including a skeleton and several fragments of the ‘‘ Duck-bill” Dinosaur, Claosaurus. A second expedition, in charge of Mr. Walter Granger, worked in the Bridger country of southwestern Wyoming, where a valuable collection (197 specimens in all) of the remains of rare mammals from the Eocene formations was obtained. The third party was in charge of Mr. Albert Thomson, and explored, with good results, the fossil beds in the Pine Ridge Reservation of South Dakota. Among the finds were skulls or parts of skele- tons of fossil carnivores, rodents, peccaries, camels, rhinoce- roses and horses, and a complete skeleton and about fifty skulls of primitive ruminants, nearly all of which are new to science. Several important scientific papers, mentioned in another part of this report, have been published by the Curator and the members of his staff, and others are nearly ready for publication. | Under the skilful direction of Dr. Dean excellent progress has been made in the arrangement, exhibition and develop- ment of our collections of Fossil Fishes, which, at the present time, number 7,890 specimens. Through the generous gift of Mr. Cleveland H. Dodge it has been possible to purchase several valuable specimens and to take up important field work. Dr. Hussakof and Mr. Charles Mead visited the fossil beds along Scaumenac Bay, Quebec, and secured about 200 specimens of fishes. Report of the President. 19 DEPARTMENT OF ETHNOLOGY.—The rearrangement of the Indian collections in the West Hall was undertaken by Dr. Wissler, the Acting Curator, early in the year. The general scheme of installation has been to show in a simple and effec- tive way the various phases of culture of the Indians of the Plains. Transportation, warfare, art, religion, amusements, in- dustries, are some of the topics treated. The installation has received most favorable comment, not alone from the layman, but from the visiting anthropologist. A similar method has been followed with gratifying results in the reinstallation of the Eskimo collection in the North Wing. The attractiveness of this hall will be greatly increased when the mural paintings, provided through the generosity of Mr. Arthur Curtiss James and executed by Mr. F. W. Stokes, have been completed. The care of the study collections which cannot be placed on exhibition is no small task. With the storage system re- cently devised it has been possible to catalogue and arrange this material so that it is readily accessible to students. In spite of the heavy draft that the routine of the depart- ment has made on the Acting Curator’s time, he has continued his’ researches and has directed the scientific work of the members of his staff. He has gathered data for papers on ‘*The Origin and Distribution of the Blackfoot Indians,” mite seeree sOcietics of the Dakota” and “The Protective Designs of the Dakota.” Mr. Harlan I. Smith, besides assisting in the regular work of the department, has completed his memoir on the ‘‘Arche- ology of Puget Sound,” and has in preparation an exhibit representing the culture of the Indians of the North Pacific coast. Mr. Mead and Mr. Pepper have made progress in their respective departments. Dr. A. E. Jenks, who was formerly Chief of the Bureau for the Ethnological Survey of the Philippines and Superin- tendent of the Philippine Exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition, 20 Report of the President. was engaged to identify and catalogue our extensive ethno- logical collections from the Philippines, and the work has been most satisfactorily done. Among the field workers, Dr. J. R. Walker has made con- siderable progress with the physical measurements among the Dakota at Pine Ridge. Mr. D. C. Duvall, among the Black- foot, has completed his field notes upon games and amuse- ments. Mr. R. H. Lowie has visited the Shoshone Indians on the Lemhi Indian Reservation in Idaho for the purpose of studying their ethnology. Dr. C.. C. Vinton is collecting material in Korea, and Mr. M. R. Harrington has been com- missioned to make a collection from the Iroquois in Canada. The Acting Curator has also assumed the editorship of the anthropological papers published by the Museum. Jesup NortTH Paciric EXPEDITION PUBLICATIONS.—In June Professor Franz Boas retired as Curator of the Department of Anthropology, and has since acted as the editor of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition publications on a fund estab- lished by Mr. Jesup. During the year the following parts have been completed : 7 Vol. II, Part V. ‘‘ The Lillooet Indians.” By James Teit. Vol. X, Part I. ‘‘ Kwakiutl Texts—Second Series.” By Franz Boas and George Hunt. DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY.—A considerable portion of the Curator’s time has been occupied in identifying, labeling and cataloguing the collections received. In connection with this work Mr. Beutenmiiller has visited the United States National Museum at Washington, the American Entomological Society at Philadelphia, and the New York State Museum at Albany for purposes of study. In all, 9,300 specimens have been mounted. Among the important gifts should be mentioned a collec- tion of 2,000 butterflies, from Mr. William Schaus, and a col- lection of termites and nests from Panama, presented by Mrs. A. Beaumont. These were collected by the late ames Beaumont. THROUGH THE Ici Ground Floor, MO WOMAN FISHING ESKI From North Wing.?! ( No. 108 in Hall group Report of the President. 2a The generosity of Mr. Samuel V. Hoffman enabled the Curator to continue his entomological survey of the Black Mountains of North Carolina. Although the unusual rain and fog handicapped the party, about 8,o00 specimens were col- lected, including a large number of very interesting species, many of which are new to science. The Curator has made considerable progress on a mono- graph on the ‘‘Genus Cafoca/a,” and has four shorter papers in preparation. The following experts have aided in identifying specimens or in preparing papers on our collections, and we gratefully acknowledge their assistance : Masa Wir Ieeartott.. +6 0.466 e% Montclair, N. J.

DEPARTMENT OF MINERALOGY AND CoNCHOLOGY.—The event of the year was the receipt of the famous Willamette meteorite, presented by Mrs. William E. Dodge. This mass, composed almost entirely of pure iron and weighing more than fifteen tons, is the largest meteorite which has been found in the United States, and is one of the three largest known. The great hollows and deep pits which characterize its surface combine with its enormous size to make it the most remarkable and interesting meteorite that has been dis- covered. ‘The specimen has been installed in the foyer where it is a constant source of attraction to the many visitors to the Museum. With this notable acquisition the Museum possesses one of the finest collections of meteorites known to science. By purchase the Museum has acquired the Selma meteorite, the largest entire stone meteorite known. The development of the mineral collection has been con- tinued by the judicious selection of rare and showy specimens, which has been made possible by the income from the Bruce 22 Report of the President. Fund. An unusually fine boulder, bearing opal, has been re- ceived through the generosity of Mr. George S. Bowdoin. Progress has been made in cataloguing the minerals and in revising the shell collections. During the summer the Curator visited Iceland and secured minerals, insects, mollusks and other material for the Museum. DEPARTMENT OF INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY.—The opening of the East Mammal Hall and the North Corridor has made it possible to remove the reptile and fish collections from the Synoptic Hall and to give them space for growth and consistent development. Mr. Miner has made progress in an attractive installation of the fishes, and the reptile collection has been improved by the addition of fine groups of the Painted Turtle and Florida Rattlesnake. A group of Flying Lizards is now being prepared. Dr. B. E. Dahlgren, who early in the year was appointed an Assistant Curator, has spent most of his time working on a series of models representing the structure of the malarial mosquito and the stages of the malarial plasmodia in the human blood corpuscle. Dr. L. W. Williams has made a fine large model of the Common Squid. | The attractiveness and educational value of the Jesup Col- lection of North American Woods, at present in the custody of this department, have been increased by placing in the cases with some of the specimens artificial sprays showing the foli- age, flower and fruit of the tree in natural size and color. The entire Magnolia Family has been reinstalled with such good results that a similar treatment will be applied to the re- mainder of the Wood Collection. In all, twenty-five papers, based on the material in the department, have been published. Of these, sixteen were by the Curator, one by Mr. Miner, four by Professor ape = Cockerell, and one each by Messrs. James A. G. Rehn, J. F. McClendon, Nathan Banks and Charles T. Brues. Early in the year Dr. N. L. Britton, Director of the New York Botanical Garden, organized an expedition to Culebra ‘uorjepixo Aq poutsox sztd dsap Surmoys ‘opis rvay (‘espod "A WeITIIA\ “SII JO ID) ene en "suo Q°SI YSI9M ‘saYyoUT g 39903 9 IYSIOY ‘aaj OL YSU] “ALIMOULA ALLAWVTITIAA FAHY, Report of the President. 23 and Porto Rico, and very kindly invited Dr. Wheeler to ac- company him for the purpose of studying the terrestrial inver- tebrate fauna of the islands. Although only four weeks were devoted to the work, Dr. Wheeler secured an extensive collec- tion of the ants of Culebra and Porto Rico, regions from which no ants have been described heretofore. The collection contains some 5,000 specimens, representing about 60 species, subspecies and varieties. Dr. Alexander G. Ruthven, accompanied by Mr. Gneomar von Krockow, proceeded to southern New Mexico and Arizona to study the reptiles of these regions. Valuable field notes and about 1,000 specimens were secured, besides a small col- lection of invertebrates, consisting principally of ants, mol- _ lusks and parasitic worms. The results of this expedition are now being worked up in several papers, the mollusks by Mr. Bryant Walker, the vertebrates by Dr. Ruthven. pon invitation of Professor 1. D. A. Cockerell of the University of Colorado, who had organized an expedition for this purpose, Dr. Wheeler spent June and July in Florissant, Colo., exploring the Miocene fossil beds of the region. The summer’s work was successful beyond expectation. Up- wards of 2,000 specimens of fossil plants and insects were secured. With few exceptions the Florissant insects hitherto described, although all belonging to extinct species, are never- theless very similar to those found in subtropical America at the present time. This is an extremely interesting and significant fact, since it emphasizes the enormous age and singular mor- phological stability and persistence of the insect type. DEPARTMENT OF BOOKS AND PUBLICATIONS.—It is a recog- nized fact that a thoroughly equipped library is a necessary adjunct to an institution devoted to scientific research. With this need in view the Curator has endeavored to secure not only recent publications required in a science library, but earlier works which would complete the broken series we already possess. While progress has been made in filling unfortunate gaps, much remains to be done, and additional funds are urgently needed for this purpose. 24 . Report of the President. The department has received during the year 2,652 volumes and 1,148 pamphlets, making the working library at the close of 1906 number about 34,666 books and 17,732 pamphlets. Among the important accessions of the year should be men- tioned two superbiy illustrated volumes on ‘‘ Jade,” by the late Heber R. Bishop, presented to the Museum by the Executors of his Estate, and the books, pamphlets and sepa- rates that have been received from Dr. Allen, Dr. Wheeler and Dr. Bumpus, whose private libraries had already been given to the Museum. All gifts and exchanges have been duly acknowledged. : . The reference catalogue has been tinereasedi ing auine inter- calation of 15,967 cards received from the Concilium Bibli- - ographicum, and a like number has been distributed to the series on deposit. A great many visiting scientists have made use of the library. The Curator is the official custodian’of all works of art, and in his care have been placed the busts of the pioneers of American science, which were given to the Museum by your President. These busts occupy niches in the foyer of the Museum, and were unveiled with impressive ceremonies dur- ing “‘ Convocation Week.” A full report of these ceremonies is now being printed and will soon be issued. The scientists thus represented are: Benjamin Franklin, Jean Louis Rodolphe Agassiz, Alexander von Humboldt, James Dwight Dana, John James Audubon, Spencer Fullerton Baird, John Torrey, Joseph Leidy, Joseph Henry, Edward Drinker Cope.

DEPARTMENT OF PHysioLocy.—As usual, this department has taken charge of all animals ‘‘in the flesh” which have been received at the Museum during the year. These number 267 specimens. The ‘‘digestion method” of preparing osteo- logical material, which was used with such good success in 1905, was continued, with the result that 103 complete skele- tons, 34 skulls and 3 shoulder-girdles have been cleaned and turned over to the various departments. Progress has been made in the preparation of anatomical parts and in the construction of models and mechanical de- vices which will assist in demonstrating the function of certain organs of the body. Dr. Muenchehofe has prepared success- fully a working model of the heart to show the action of the aortic and auriculoventricular valves. During the summer Dr. Muenchehofe spent several weeks visiting the museums of London, Berlin, Dresden, Leipsic, Prague, Innsbriick and Naples, from which many ideas have been obtained. We gratefully acknowledge the many courte- sies extended to the Museum by the Director of the New York Zodlogical Society, the Director of the New York Aquarium, and the Director of the Central Park Menagerie. DEPARTMENT OF Maps AND CHARTs.—The maps of the Western Hemisphere have been classified, and 2,344 have been arranged on the filing frames.

While this does not quite equal the record fig- - those interested in them.’ 28 Report of the President. ures of 1905, it does exceed the attendance of any other year. This decrease may be explained in part by the omission of the lectures for school children during the fall. As a result the attendance of school children was only 24,000, as against 46,000 of the preceding year. About 45,000 people were present at the public lectures. Repeatedly our attention has been called to the intelligent character of those visiting the Museum. The average visitor is seeking not merely amusement, but is ready and anxious to gain as much information as possible. ASSOCIATED SOCIETIES AND ORGANIZATIONS.—Early in the spring a reception was tendered to the Governor-General of Canada and his wife, Earl and Countess Grey, which brought to the Museum a notable gathering. After the formal recep- tion, which was held in the Japanese Reception Room, the guests visited the exhibition halls. On account of its accessibility and equipment, the Museum is regarded as a desirable meeting place for various scientific societies of the City and vicinity. The New York Academy of Sciences and Affiliated Societies hold their meetings here, and our lecture rooms are in great demand for use by visiting classes from public and private schools. In May, representative museum men from all over) tiem United States and Canada met at the Museum for the purpose of organizing the American Association of Museums, the object of which is ‘‘to promote the welfare of museums, to increase and diffuse knowledge of all matters relating to them, and to encourage helpful relations among museums and The New York Academy arranged for an exhibition during ‘¢Convocation Week’”’ of December, to show the recent prog- ress that had been made in science. The Museum set aside the Siberian Hall and part of the west Indian Hall for the use of the Academy during the exhibition. The Geological Society of America and the American Paleontological Society were also entertained at the Museum during ‘‘Convocation Week.” —S ——= a ‘Dsy ‘t ‘UIOp MOG S 93.1095) 04 WIND ar I 10991 ‘U0}2|94S° Report of the President. 29 The following is a list of the societies and classes which have held meetings at the Museum during the year: American Association for the Advancement of Science.
