PEA REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR:
1909.
To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History:
I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the
Museum for the year ending December 31, 1909.
In the extension of its scientific operations into remote lands,
and in the accumulation of material of great value from new fields
consist the more important activities of the Museum for rg09. The
expedition into Tibet, in the South Pacific Islands, and in the Philip-
pines, and the acquisition of material by purchase from Egypt and
German New Guinea, the Rothrock herbaria and library, and the
collections made by subordinate Museum expeditions in Guatemala,
British New Guinea, Bermuda, Fiji Islands, etc., have unitedly
brought to the stores of the institution the most valuable material
from every point of view that any year has recorded. This has been
done without interference with the work of rearranging and labeling
and recasing old material and the installation of new material in
accordance with the plans for the occupation of the new building,
inaugurated four years ago. In the introduction of new material to
the exhibition series in all departments, and the consequent extension
of geographical areas, scientific discrimination has resulted in con-
siderable elimination of material in all departments, both because of
space requirements and because of the transfer of apparent duplicates
to the study collections, whereby the latter were rendered more
complete in themselves without detracting from the interest of the
exhibited collections, at least from a popular standpoint. In all the
scientific departments increased storage facilities for duplicates and
for exchange material have been provided and the spaces and systems
for the accommodation of study material have been enlarged and
improved. It will be observed too, that in response to the demands
for reference books, necessary for the identification and description
of material, the departmental libraries have had gratifying addi-
tions. The capacity of the printing shop has been doubled to meet
the requisitions for labels, the output of which this year has greatly
increased. The generous appropriations for exhibition cases for all
departments have hardly equaled the requirements, but the pro-
Sie"

vision made has resulted in a noticeable improvement in the phy
appearance of the exhibition halls throughout the buildiag r
especially in the Departments of Botany and Geology, ne, .
present as near an appearance of completeness as it is d |
possible for an active Museum to attain.
In the publications of the Museum for the year, C
Birds of Illinois and Wisconsin” has attracted much favora
gratifying criticism, while the descriptive catalogue, by te
of the collection of reproductions of the bronzes in the Naples Mi
selected by Mr. Edward E. Ayer, constitutes by general ¢
valuable contribution to the literature of classical archmology.”)
The murder of Dr. William Jones of the Department ¢
thropology, while on an expedition for the Museum amor
Ilongots of the Philippine Islands, was a shock to his ¢
the Museum, no greater, however, than it was to his comp
to student ethnologists throughout the world. Dr. Jones
young man of the very best attainments in his chosen field, 1
death came while performing service fully as patriotic and high
purpose as that actuating any man whose career has had 1 tra
close. The Museum has just learned of the intended returm
Assistant Curator S. C. Simms, who visited the scene of Dr. Jo
last-Wwork and has secured the material and notes gathered br
and caused a suitable monument, funds for which were pri
provided, to be erected at the spot where the body of Dr. Jones
buried. The Trustees have caused a bronze memorial tablet de
by Theodore Lescher to be cast for insertion in the wall surrot
the Philippine collection in the Museum. =
The engagement of Curator Dorsey to prepare a series of ar
on the ethnology and sociology of the Old World for public
the Chicago Tribune, while depriving the Museum for a time
important service of a much valued member of the scientific
nevertheless so closely allied with the purposes and possibili

said to enlarge its scope. The letters thus far published have ttr .
wide attention and there can be no doubt of the importance ad t
contribution to the knowledge of those concerned in the sc
conditions of the world and those specially interested in the f
changing intellectual and moral averages of the United §

ment to the Assistant Curatorship of Mammalogy and Ornithology.
Mr. Osgood brings to the Department of Zodlogy an established
reputation of high order. He isa scholar, an author, and an educator.
His better known labors have been with the mammals of the North-
west Coast, and he is an acknowledged authority among the younger
group of mammalogists. He is at present in London working up the
Museum African material, in which it is believed a number of new
types will be found. Prof. B. E. Dahlgren, the well known modeler
in wax and glass, especially assigned to the Department of Botany,
is an acquisition of importance. A number of striking pieces result-
ing from the art, skill, and scientific knowledge of Prof. Dahlgren
have already been placed on exhibition in the Botanical gallery.
One or more minor resignations have been offered in the scientific
departments, capable men accepting advancement to higher positions
in other institutions.
The creation by the Board of Trustees of an Administration
Committee to which was assigned some of the duties theretofore
imposed upon the Executive Committee, and the monthly meetings
of this new Committee at the Museum, has been of distinct advantage
in the more prompt consideration of important questions by the
corporation authorities.
The President (Sefior Don Manuel Estrada Cabrera) of the
Republic of Guatemala requested the United States Bureau of Fish-
eries to recommend some person to make a survey of Lakes Amatitlan
and Atitlan, for the purpose of determining whether and how the
quantity and quality of the food and game fishes of those lakes could
be increased. Assistant Curator Meek was recommended, because
of his knowledge of and interest in Tropical fresh-water fishes. The
survey was made by Dr. Meek while on a Museum expedition to
Central America. The scientific result of this survey was recorded in
a publication of the Museum, Vol. VII, pages 159 to 206. Three
other Museum publications with a total of 75 pages resulted from this
expedition.
By consent of President Higinbotham of the World’s Columbian
Exposition, the collection of sketch models loaned to the Museum by
the World’s Fair of 1893, which have been on exhibition in the
Rotunda since 1894, were presented to the West Chicago Park
Commissioners for exhibition in the public parks of the city, excepting
a few pieces selected by and presented to the Art Institute. A number
of these models have been installed in Garfield Park, and add a dis-
tinct note of artistic culture to the grounds.

Mantenance.— The Annual Budget authorized by the Board
of Trustees provided the sum of $174,290 for the maintenance of the
Museum for the fiscal year. The actual amount expended
$145,512, leaving a balance within the anticipated expense for the
of $28,778. In addition to the cost of maintenance, sums .
expended for collections and new installation, expeditions, ete., that
brought the total to $198,472. As will be observed from the details
of the financial statement, the total sum of $21,163, in indi
contributions has also been disbursed for special collections ;
expeditions.
Lecture Course. The Spring and Autumn Lecture
comprising course number thirty in March and April and ¢
number thirty-one in October and November, seventeen lectures in’
all, had the same gratifying attendance that has now become
custom. There have been few lectures when the demands for
mission have not exceeded the capacity of the hall, and in no c
has the attendance been unsatisfactory. y

oon entire collection of both mammals and birds has been critically
examined with regard to possible damage by insects and found to be
in excellent condition. Material in pickle has been carefully ex-
amined and supplied with fresh preservative. This material, which
consists mostly of skins of large mammals secured by Museum ex-
peditions, is being removed from pickle and dressed as fast as possible.
Since July 1, about 150 of these large skins have been treated by the

Accessions.— Among the most important accessions of the year
in the Department of Anthropology should be mentioned the two
collections from German New Guinea, one from Huon Gulf, number-
ing 500 specimens; another, a general collection of more than a
thousand pieces, from the central coast region. The latter includes
carved posts, large carved canoes, and two rare dance masks from
Hansa Bay, the larger one more than 16 feet in height. These
valuable acquisitions were the gift of Mr. Joseph N. Field of Man-
chester, England. The material obtained by Mr. Ayer last year but
not prepared for exhibition until last Spring consisted of 18 strings
of beads, composed of carnelian, glass, and glazed earthenware; 18
mortuary stone vases and jars of great beauty and value, among
which is a beautiful alabaster vase for ointment; 49 weights of a wide
range of sizes, made of stone and copper; a mirror and bottle, each
of bronze; 16 stone statuettes, some in a more or less fragmentary
condition, among which is a beautiful figure of Osiris and also a
fine red stone statue of the twelfth dynasty (inscribed ‘‘His father
Teta, His mother Nefertari’’); 4 mortuary cloths (in frames upon
the east wall of Hall 9); 1 coffin lid of wood; 8 coffin lids of s.one,
all somewhat fragmentary, with one exception; a large, inscribed
brick; 4 burnt clay mortuary offerings; 2 wooden mortuary boxes;
2 small mortuary figures of wood, one containing a rectangular cavity
for receiving a papyrus; a mummied hawk; 2 mummied antelopes;

the head of a mummy, a mummy and a rectangular coffin. Ti
addition to several wood carvings and stone tablets there are c
casts of 27 stones in Hatshepsa Temple, representing the pro n
of the Sacred Boat. Of very special interest is a small wax figure, of
the Ptolemaic Period, in the form of Osiris, Lord of Bekha (th
Eastern Mountain), found at Tehneh, Province of Mirich, Upp
Egypt. Within it is the mummy of a falcon. With the figure a
images of 4 genii, along with cakes of an undetermined substar
A portion of this accession consisted of a small group of cin
vessels from Etruria and ancient Roman bronze vessels, now if
stalled in the North Court. The two large Mastaba tombs, ex-
cavated under the direction of Mr. Edward E. Ayer at the Necropolis
of Sakara, one of them being the gift of Mr. Martin A. Ryerson, re
ferred to in the 1908 report as anticipated accessions, were recei
at the Museum the past year and given storage in a special t
room constructed at the east unused entrance of the Museum, a as it
was not considered advisable to erect the tombs in the present b
ing. The tombs filled 206 large cases, some of them ten feet in length
the total shipment weighing 96 tons; the installation of one of th
stele in Egyptian Hall is referred to in another part of this
Among gifts from Mr. Edward E. Ayer were two rare, carved woode
images from New Ireland. Mr. R. F. Cummings gave a small
yan collection, made by Dr. Fletcher Gardner, Bloomington, Indi
while serving as a surgeon in Mindoro. This accession is
owing to the extreme scarcity of cave material in the Philippi
about 50 specimens of the lot coming from the burial cave of Pok
midway between the towns of Bulalacao and Mansalay in South
Mindoro. Other interesting gifts were 8 paintings of Hopi Ind
by E. W. Burbank, presented by Mr. Stanley McCormick,
unique woven garment, ornamented with tufts of human hair, foun
in an old mission of Lower California by Mr. W. H. Dupee of Chie
and by him given to the Museum. Of the important and intere
accessions by purchase, were an Egyptian sarcophagus of
collection of Kabyle (Algiers) jewelry, and several Assanian }
Babylonian seals collected by Mr. Ayer. Mention should be r
of a small accession from Angola, West Central Africa, which f
a valuable addition to the Woodside-Ovimbundu collection.
The most conspicuous addition to the herbarium during i ye
is that of the personal herbarium and library of Dr. J. T. ar
who, as a member of several of the early surveys of the West, nol
amassed large and valuable collections himself, but through his a
“a

ciation with Dr. Asa Gray, Dr. George Thurber, Dr. John Torrey and
other early botanists, was able to secure many rare plants and sets
of plants. His herbarium consists of nearly 25,000 sheets, largely
from the west, north and southwest, Mexico and Florida. It con-
tains long series of the plants of Bean, Berlandier, Bigelow, Bischoff,
Bolander, Brendel, Burk, Canby, Chapman, Clinton, Curtiss, Garber,
Ghiesbright, Hall and Harbour, Sutton Hayes, Kellogg, Kenney,
Lemon, Leow, Mann, John Stuart Mill, Palmer, Parry and Palmer,
Pope, Porter, Pringle, Regel, Reverchon, Thurber, Vasey, Ward,
Wolf, and Wright. This herbarium comprises collections made
principally from 1840 to 1880, thus directly supplementing that of
Patterson, secured by the Museum some years ago, which dates from
1880 to 1900. The Rothrock herbarium is mostly mounted and 6,000
sheets have already been put through and placed in the organized
herbarium of the Museum. The other notable herbaria now in-
corporated with that of the Museum are those of Dr. Arthur Schott,
M: S. Bebb, H. N. Patterson, C. F. Millspaugh, A. A. Heller, John K.
Small, L. J. Wahlstedt, A. S. Hitchcock, and the University of Chicago.
Other series secured to the herbarium this year are: Clemens, Philip-
pine, 1,150; Bloomer, Arizona, 900; von Tuerckheim, Guatemala, 406;
Conzatti, Mexico, 185; Purpus, Mexico, 523; C. R. Barnes and Land,

In Geology the gift of the Tonopah meteorite, weighing n
two tons, is a notable accession. This was presented through ¢
generosity of Messrs. Stanley Field, R. T. Crane, Jr., Cyrus H. M
Cormick, and George F. Porter, of the Board of Trustees. The ma
was obtained entire and is the largest meteorite specimen in th
Museum collection as well as one of the largest known. The meteor
exhibits atmospheric shaping and pitting in a remarkable degn
A very interesting specimen of copper boulder weighing 22 poun
found near Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, and a specimen of asbestos fro
Canada, were presented by Mr. Edward E. Ayer of the Board of Tr
tees. Mr. William J. Chalmers of the Board of Trustees kindly ade
to the Chalmers crystal collection a superb crystal of golden b
showing negative crystals. From Thomas S. Chalmers were
three specimens of gold ore from Cripple Creek, Colorado,
some of the richest ore found in the early days of the Indep
Mine. A large collection, comprising over 300 specimens, of
copper, silver, calcite, hematite, datolite, and other minecalail
fossils, chiefly from the Lake Superior region, was received from M
Joseph Austrian of Chicago. The collection was made by her
band, the late Mr. Austrian, during the early days of copper nin
in the Lake Superior region and hence contains many specin
no longer procurable. From F. Pereira Gamba were receiv
specimens of gold ores and associated rocks of Colombia; from Nipj
Toki Gomei Kwaisha 12 specimens of clays and other minerals w
in the manufacture of Japanese porcelains; from L. V. Kenks
large photograph, 5 feet in length, of the Miles glacier, and
photographs of Alaska; from President John Goff 45 specime
fossil echinoids from Mississippi; and from W. W. N
specimens odlite and fossils from Oklahoma. By exchange, §
mens of the Dokachi and Futtehpur meteorites were obtained f
a
JAN., I9I0. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 347
the Geological Survey of India, and from Grebel, Wendler & Co., a
specimen of the Buschhof meteorite and ten specimens of minerals.
Important material obtained by purchase included an unusually
complete mastodon skull from Yorkville, Illinois, and a nearly com-
plete skeleton of the rare fossil beaver-like animal Castoroides ohioensis
from Indiana. A large slab 31% square feet in area showing over 200
calices of the fossil crinoid Uintacrinus from Kansas and a series of
well-preserved crinoids from the Kinderhook group of Le Grand,
Iowa, were also obtained by purchase. Accessions by collection
include several hundred specimen fossils of Bermuda; about 200
specimens of ores and minerals of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska,
obtained from exhibitors at the Seattle Exposition; 76 specimens of
fossils, ores and minerals from Oklahoma and nearly 3,000 specimens
of invertebrate fossils from Wilmington, Illinois, and adjoining
localities.
The acquisitions during the year in the Department of Zodlogy
were extensive and important, comprising 122 mammals, 1,170 bird
skins, 300 eggs, 4,989 specimens of fishes, and 201 reptiles. An
interesting and important collection of mammals and birds was
obtained through the kind offices of Mr. Rodway of the Georgetown
Museum, British Guiana. Mr. Rodway’s interest in the Museum is
gratifying and highly appreciated. Approximately 1,300 of the fishes
were collected on the Florida Keys by Assistant Curator Meek; 30
specimens were collected in Venezuela by Mr. J. F. Ferry, and the
remainder from near Chicago by Mr. Hildebrand. A large collection
of mostly fresh-water fishes was purchased from Mr. Woolman. The
collection contains many rare species from the Southern States and
from Mexico. Of the reptiles, 71 important ones were collected on
the islands near Venezuela by Mr. Ferry, and the next in importance
were secured through exchange from Mr. Hunter of St. Louis. The
acquisitions in the Division of Entomology consisted mainly of small
lots of insects, mostly of local species, though by purchase 163 specimens
were obtained from Charles Weber, who collected them on the island
of Palawan, Philippine Islands.
EXPEDITION AND FIELD Work.— One of the most important expedi-
tions of the year has been that of Assistant Curator Simms in
continuation of the survey of the Philippine Islands, the funds for
which are provided by Mr. Robert F. Cummings. On his arrival at
Manila Mr. Simms proceeded to the Cagayan valley with the object of
assembling the material collected by Dr. Jones and arranging for its
dispatch to Manila. Dr. Jones, having made an exhaustive study
348 Fieco Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. III
of the Ilongots of Dumabatu, Tamsi, Alicad, and Cagadyangan, and
having assembled his collections at Dumabatu, was preparing to ra
them to Echaque, when he was killed by natives. The following re
port from Assistant Curator Simms, dated November 26, 1909, fre
Tagudin, Mt. Province, is of interest: “I have the pleasure to
that my stay in the Ifugao territory (where I journeyed after cc
pleting my work in connection with the affairs of the late Dr. Jor
was one of success, having collected more than a thousand specime!
forming a typical and comprehensive collection from this interesting
people, who, up to the time of making this collection were but poorl
represented in the Museum. In this collection there is a full size
typical house, also forges, models, objects in progress of manufacture,
etc. My next scene of investigation and collecting was among the
Igorot of the sub-province of Amburayan — principally at
and immediate vicinity. From this little known area I made
collection of several hundred specimens which greatly increase the
value of an already large and valuable collection of Igorot mate
by the filling in of a previously existing gap. I sincerely hope
get my material shipped soon, that it may reach Chicago the f
of the coming year.”” The collections of Dr. Jones and i
Curator Simms are now in transit from Manila. Dr. Berthold
continued his ethnological survey of Tibet under the Blackstone
Early in May, Assistant Curator Lewis left for New Guinea and t
adjacent islands, beginning the three years survey under the Jo
N. Field South Pacific Islands Fund. After a brief stay in Hawaii } h
proceeded to the Fiji islands, where he was able to secure a fairly cc
prehensive collection, comprising about 70 type specimens, b
mats, posts, fishing outfits, etc., in various stages of completion.
Fiji Mr. Lewis journeyed to Sydney, Australia, and from thence to Her
bertshohe, Bismark Archipelago. From here, without delay, he se
out upon a trip along the coast of German New Guinea, from Huo
Gulf to Berlin Hafen, with the intention of returning to the forme
locality to begin work. Early in October Mr. Cole returned to thi
Philippines on his second R. F. Cummings’ Expedition, to
investigations among the wild tribes of the southern islands. H
will first work among the Mangyans of Mindoro, a Malayan trib
having a written language quite different from that used by otk
Malayan people. After visiting certain sections of Palawan he wi
go to Negros for a somewhat lengthy sojourn. Upon completic
this work he will go to Mindanao for an extended stay among f
tribes found toward the interior of that island.

Three field trips in the interest of the Department of Botany
have been successfully made during the year. The herbarium staff
spent a week among the sandstone outcrops of the Starved Rock
region, not only to assure a representation of the plants of that inter-
esting locality in the herbarium, but to secure valuable exchange
material. This trip resulted in 183 specimens, and 11 sets of speci-
mens for exchange with other herbaria. Mr. R. A. Dixon, one of the
preparators of the department, made a like trip to Madison, Mont-
gomery, and Walther counties, Texas, securing 189 specimens for the
herbarium and 575 specimens for exchange. Mr. Huron Smith,
Dendrologist, made his field base this year in the mountains of West
Virginia and Northern Georgia where he collected 149 tree specimens,
I1o negatives of trees, 250 herbarium specimens of trees, 592 speci-
mens of various plants for the general herbarium, and 1,342 specimens
for exchange. Mr. B. E. Dahlgren made a trip to Jamaica in Febru-
ary and March to secure studies, and specimens of tropic fruits for
reproduction. From this expedition he returned 117 specimens,
molds, and mounts together with a long series of water-color studies
of living plants and fruits in situ. In his work on the island he was
generously accorded accommodations at the Hope Botanical Gardens
at Kingston and material assistance by the Director, Mr. H. H.
Cousins, Mr. William Harris, and other members of the staff. -
In March a trip was made to the Bermuda Islands by the Curator
of Geology and full series obtained illustrative of the coral and zolian
limestones, cave products, soils and erosion forms of these islands.
Of the latter forms, two large potholes nearly two feet in depth
collected were especially important in illustrating these peculiar
formations. Specimens of the fossil shells and corals of the islands
were obtained in large number and about 60 photographs made, illus-
trating various geographic features but more especially the variations
in elevation and subsidence of the islands. The Alaska-Yukon-Pa-
cific Exposition at Seattle was visited near its close by the Curator
and a considerable quantity of valuable material illustrative of the
ores and minerals of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest obtained from
exhibitors there. Among the material obtained was a number of pay
gravels from placer mines of Alaska, low grade gold ores of Alaska,
copper ores, including those of native copper, from the Copper River
district, tin and tungsten ores from Teller, Alaska, showing associa-
tions like those of the Cornwall region, specimens illustrating the
coals of Alaska, including anthracite and natural coke, sulphur and
antimony ores from Alaska, representative ores from the mines of
3so. Freco Museum or Naturat History — Reports, VoL. I.
the State of Washington, including ores from the New Republic mine,
gold-bearing lead ores from Metaline, nickel, mercury, and antimony
ores from Cle Elum, a series of copper ores illustrating transition fr
carbonate to sulphide from the Glacier Peak district, iron and chin
mite concentrates from the black sands of Cape Flattery, tale, fire
clays and pottery clays and a series of silver-lead ores of the importan!
mines of the Coeur d'Alene district. Idaho. Some choice miner
specimens were also obtained, including a fine group of smoky qua
crystals from Mt. Hood and a specimen of the new mineral hulsii
Some excellent Cretaceous fossils of unique form of preservation at
including a new nautiloid species were also obtained. On the
trip the asphalt fossil beds near Los Angeles, California, and the
Canyon of Arizona were visited and valuable specimens collected a
photographs made. A brief trip to Southern Oklahoma was m
by the Assistant Curator from which ores, fossils, and other geo
material of the territory were obtained. The ores secured
chiefly of iron and manganese and illustrative of the gradations
these ores and the replacement of limestone by iron. Good specim
of glass sand were also obtained. The fossils obtained were chie
bryozoa and brachiopods. In addition, specimens of calcareous
siliceous odlites were collected and some field studies made regare
the origin of the latter. The Assistant Curator of Inverteb
Paleontology continued during the year the work of collecting
vertebrate fossils in the Chicago area and at Wilmington, [lis
In the Chicago area over 500 specimens of Niagara age were collce
chiefly crinoids, sponges, and corals. Several of the crine ds
nished additional illustrations of the new species recently describe
the Assistant Curator and some new forms were obtained. Se
hundred Pleistocene shells were also collected in the area.
mington over 2,000 specimens of Richmond age were obtained, }
all of which are new to the collections. These include representat
of about 20 species of Brachiopods, several species each of Pelec
and Cephalopods, and 35 species of Bryozoans. ae
During January, February and March, Mr. John F. Ferry of |
Department of Zodlogy, visited the islands of Bonaire, Aves,
Roques, Orchilla, Tortuga, Blanquilla, Los Hermanos, garit
Testigos, situated off the northern coast of South America. —

of the Museum were obtained. In addition much information of
value in the study of migration, variation, and geographic distribu-
tion was secured. In May, June, and July Mr. Ferry again took the
field and worked in the vicinity of Prince Albert and Quill Lake,
Saskatchewan, where he secured 195 birds, 22 mammals, 36 sets of
birds’ eggs with nests, and a large amount of accessory material for
the preparation of exhibition groups of the water birds which breed
in this region. Later a second expedition to the same locality was
undertaken by Mr. Ferry, accompanied by Mr. L. L. Pray, to procure
a series of pelicans and additional accessory material, which proved
successful. In the early part of December, Mr. C. A. Corwin, Artist,
and Mr. L. L. Pray, Taxidermist, spent two weeks in northern Louts-
iana, securing sketches and accessories for bird groups in course of
preparation. During March, April, and May, Assistant Curator Meek
and Mr. Heim visited Key West and Dry Tortugas, Florida, for the
purpose of collecting fishes and accessory material for fish groups,
as well as making studies for the same. On this expedition 1,300
alcoholic specimens together with 4oo fish skins were secured, rep-
resenting 50 species. There was also collected a large quantity of
sea ferns, sea feathers, sponges, corals, starfish, sea urchins and other
material for accessory work. Of the 400 fish skins about 200 were
preserved in brine, 175 are mounted but not finished, and 25 are mount-
ed, ready for exhibition. Over 1,500 entomological specimens were
collected by the Assistant Curator of the division on a trip made in
the late summer to the southern part of Illinois. Among the insects
obtained were a number of interesting species which are not found in
the northern section of the State, where most of the field work has
been done in the past. Asa result of a trip made by Mr. Freisser to
Northern Mexico, over 200 very desirable insects were obtained from
that section.

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT, AND PERMANENT IMPROvEMENT.—The ethr
logical material secured by Mr. Cole in Northwestern
during the second Robert F. Cummings’ Philippine Expedi
chiefly among the Tinguian, Apayao, and Kalinga tribes, |
been installed in new cases entirely, filling Hall 41 and partially fi
Hall 57, with the exception of two cases. Hall 41 is entirely occuy
with material from the Tinguian tribe. This comprehensive ex
consists of basketry, matting, a case fully illustrating the mi
facture of textiles, blanketry, women's costumes, men’s dress :
accessories, medicine and foods, toys and musical instruments,
ing paraphernalia. Two Tinguian groups are about completec
Hall 41. A life-size forge group of five figures, illustrates the m.
facture of head axes and spears. A miniature village group,
to scale by Dumagat, a native boy, consists of house mode
granary, balaua, spirit houses, rice seed-beds, and accompany
accessories. About thirty figures of the natives at their daily t
will lend added interest to this case. Two cases of Kalinga-Tingu
Igorot material from the Saltan River Valley and from the Tingu
a
JAN., gro. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 353
Apayao-Kalinga people of the Tineg River Valley complete the quota
of 21 cases filling this Hall. In Hall 57 are already installed two
additional cases of Kalinga-Tinguian-Igorot ethnological specimens
from the Saltan River Valley; two cases of Kalinga material, one case
each of Batak and Tagbanua ethnological material from Palawan.
Over 200 photographs, along with new maps, have been placed in these
cases to further illustrate the use of objects shown. In this Hall there
yet remain to be installed two cases of Batak material and three of
Apayao, for which cases are still lacking. 17 New Guinea house posts
have been placed in the coves of Hall 58. In Hall 53 two cases of
ethnological specimens, comprising basketry, weapons, house posts,
drums, carved figures, a wooden bed, shell money, etc., from New
Ireland and close-by islands, have been temporarily installed. This
material, except a small quantity from the Parkinson collection, was
gathered by the Curator of the Department during his hurried trip
around the worldin 1g08. From the hall ceiling were suspended boats,
outrigger canoes, from the Solomon Islands, New Guinea and New
Britain, and a surf raft from the Solomon Islands. Upon the east and
west walls were fastened ceremonial house carvings from New Guinea,
a portion of the Voogdt collection, presented by Mr. Joseph N. Field.
Here also have been installed two dance masks, the larger over 16 feet
in height, from Hansa Bay, German New Guinea. These masks are
rare since they are usually destroyed after having served the temporary
purpose for which they were made. In Hall 37 has been installed a case
of material from Sumatra and one from Java, consisting of material
collected by the Curator during his recent visit to these islands. A
case of Java ethnology stands in Hall 39 and two cases of the same
material yet remain to be installed upon the arrival of the con-
signment of new cases. Here also is a case of Apache-Yuma and
Havasupai ethnology. In the south cove of Hall 38 have been placed
temporarily four Philippine spirit houses collected by Mr. Cole on
the second R. F. Cummings’ Expedition. On the wall of the cove
are four large rice planters from the Island of Cuyo. In the center
of the Hall stand temporarily three cases of Apache material, con-
sisting of two cases of Medicine Dance paraphernalia, and one case of
painted buckskins, implements of the chase, various household uten-
sils, tools used in tanning, etc. Some confusion of installation exists
in Halls 37, 38, and 39, leading to the east annex, owing to the
temporary use of Hall 7 by Zodlogy. As soon as it is released to
Anthropology this condition will be improved by the installation
of the collections originally designed for this hall. In Hall.
3s4. Fiecp Museum or Naturat, History — Reports, Vor. TIT
6 were installed six cases of Apache material, comprising objects;
personal adornment, accessories to dress, children’s play
medicine, foods, games, awl cases, musical instruments, grindit
implements, transportation, basketry, and warfare. Three cases ¥
be required to complete the installation of the Apache material. 7
the south end of the Hall have been installed the Navaho exhibi
largely the gift of Mr. Ayer, and consisting chiefly of blankets a
splendid lot of old Navaho basketry. A case of old Tlingit a
has been installed in Alcove rrr. Owing to the crowded condit
of the Egyptian Hall, the installation there of the sarcophagus @
large false doorway, recently secured by Mr. Ayer, made consider
rearrangement necessary. Case 41, Alcove 123, has been —
arranged. In Hall 40 a rearrangement of five cases was renc¢
necessary through the addition of certain material procured by i
Cole in Northern Luzon. The cases of the North Court have bee
felted anew and provided with suitable screws, rendering them moi
nearly dust proof than before.
The economic botanical collections have received the add
of 21§ specimens of more than ordinary interest. The progress.
installation in the Department of Botany has far exceeded that
any previous year. The entire west galleries have been comp
through the installation of 40 cases, and 42 have been comp)
labeled. The large and valuable drendrologic series from Par
has been resawed, redressed, and installed with bark and
approximation, in 7 highly interesting cases; the 39 principal
of the Island of Trinidad occupy a half case brilliant and attra
in color, these with 41 species of woods from British Guiana, compl
the case; another case sets forth 7o species of Colombian
another, 161 species of the woods of Venezuela, the latter a very ef
plete and carefully identified series. The dendrologic collectic
with two cases of more than ordinary interest; one of these cont
an enlarged model showing the structure of wood; the other a le
series of specimens illustrating the manner and results of governm
timber tests. The unique and highly attractive display of woods
the Department now comprises 45 complete cases fully and dese
tively labeled. To the systematic display in economic botany,
cases have been added during the year; one of these illustrates”
plants of the Bible, the labels presenting relative quotations ¢
cerning each; another is devoted to tea in its various forms, es,
characters; another contains 9 small families of plants, the s
poke weeds, sandal-woods, waterlilies, buttercups, pinks andl

berries; and another the pines, cedars, and fir. A case illustrates the
wood chip industry of Japan together with a long series of interesting
and comparative coniferous fruits from the Orient, Australia, and the
tropics. A case of Coontie starch plants with their interesting
cone-like flowers and fruits; and the cattail flags and objects of their
utilization. An additional case in the grass family shows the utiliza-
tion of grass fibres in cordage and basketry, and the roots in dyeing.
Two and a half further cases, illustrating the palms, bring the repre-
sentation of this utilitarian family up to 14 cases. An additional case
of the oaks, walnuts, and birches has been added, and another to
the representation of the mulberry family, containing the interesting
tapa cloth, letter-wood, fustic, and other products. A highly in-
teresting case of the breadfruit family with its rubber gum, nuts,
and meal. A case illustrating the magnolia, custard apple, witch-
hazel and sycamore families with their instructive fruits, woods, and
other products. Four cases in the bean family have been added
to the four previously on exhibition, the four new ones include the
woods, fibres, fruits, seeds, gums, and dyeing and tanning barks pro-
duced by this valuable family. The mahogany family now occupies a
case of high interest as do also the orange family, the spurge family,
and the soapworts. The buckthorns and vines yield a highly instruc-
tive exhibit of products with the tea family occupying a part of the
same case. The gutta-percha family with its rubbers, gums, and
resins, and the passion flowers and lace-barks completes another in-
stallation. The cacti, pomegranates, and mangroves fill another
case, and the interesting and curious monkey-pot family with that of
the clove and allspice another. The family of the parsleys yielding
many odorous fruits such as the cumin, anise, angelica, caraway, and
the ill-smelling gums asafoetida and angelica, is now well represented.
The black gum, azalea, dogwood, and ebony families, producing many
valuable products, and the sapodilla family, of chewing gum notoriety
are fully exploited. The morning glory family, with the milkweeds,
complete another interesting case; the mint family, and that of the
sesames, another. The madder family with its coffee, dyes, and tans,
and the potato family with many common food examples, complete
the economic installation of the year. The plans of the Curator
of Botany have been, from the first, to combine both taxonomic
and economic characteristics in the cases devoted to systematic
botanical installation. Up tothe present year the absence of
a capable reproductionist upon the staff of the department has
necessitated installation of economic material only; now, how-

ever, a Modeler’s section has been equipped and placed in ch
of Dr. B. E. Dahlgren, a capable scientific artist, and the
of his work in reproduction are .finding places in the
families. The case devoted to the breadfruit family, i
in this Report, clearly indicates the proposed plan of i
tion. In this case the maternal illustrates the family
and products as follows: A life-size reproduction of the end of
leafy, flowering, and fruiting branch of the breadfruit (A
incisa) shows the leaf-form and characters; the disposition —
characteristics of the flowers, and the immature and
fruit in exact relation; with this are two enlargements
nature exemplifying the intimate structure and character of |
flowers, both male and female, the more delicate features of hi
are reproduced in glass to insure stability and permanence in th
reproductions; in close association is a natural sized ripe fruit, show
in section, to illustrate both the developed ovary and the pecul
of the fruit itself. These four reproductions together exemplify a
the botanical characters that distinguish the family and unite
genera and species in intimate relationship. Another similar 1
stallation has been completed illustrating the chocolate family;
this a chocolate tree (Theobroma cacao) is represented in full fruit a
leaf, an enlarged model depicts the peculiar flower in botanic de
and a third the ripe fruit with its seeds (chocolate beans) invest
their natural coating of mucilaginous tissue. Several other
models now well under way will soon add deep and renewed ii
to cases already installed with products only. No Museum hell
before attempted such comprehensive educational intellee

A rearrangement of the two easterly herbarium rooms peca
necessary in order to better arrange the departmental librar
accommodate the increase of books obtained through the f
accession. The herbarium cases in the northeast room were
to the southeastern to replace the books therein. The entire
the former room are now in book shelves the content of which r
a creditable beginning of a botanical library. The subject, auth je
species card indices have been kept up to date and the accessib
and utility of the library notably increased. The herbarium W
has progressed satisfactorily during the year, though there is sti
large part of the Wahlstedt, Rothrock, and University of Chi
herbaria awaiting the organization that will render the specim
integral part of the Museum herbarium.

gold was moved to one of the floor cases and mounted and labeled in
accordance with the method employed for the general gem collection.
Unlabeled specimens of the gem collection were supplied with labels
to the number of about sixty. In Hall 36 the large slab of Uinta-
crinus acquired during the year and shown in Plate LII was placed on
exhibition. The preparation of this slab for exhibition involved
considerable labor as the slab had been imperfectly mounted when
received and was unsafe for exhibition without further treatment.
In order to prepare it for exhibition and make a firm and durable
mount, the surface designed for exhibition was covered with tissue
and a thick covering of plaster poured over it. The slab was then re-
versed and the plaster previously forming the bed carefully removed
from the rear side. A thick bed of plaster was provided for this side
and a heavy and durable framework placed around it. The plaster
was then removed from the front side and the whole framed in heavy
plate glass. In Hall 59 a fine mastodon skull from Yorkville, Illinois,
has been installed in place of the large cast of Elephas ganesa. Some
needful repairs were made upon the mastodon skeleton in the same
Hall.

and will doubtless be installed during the year. A habitat group of
antelopes (Antelocapra americana) has been begun and in November
Mr. Julius Friesser visited northern Mexico securing the necessary
accessory material. Owing to the generosity of Mr. Stanley Field,
who provided the necessary funds, four large habitat groups of birds
have been begun and bid fair to excel any work of the kind which has
been undertaken. These groups will show the following North
American species under natural conditions: 1, California condors
(scene, mountains of Southern California); 2, wild turkeys (scene,
forest of Northern Louisiana); 3, white pelecans, cormorants, gulls,
etc. (scene, breeding grounds, Quill Lake, Saskatchewan region,
Canada); 4, wild geese, ducks, terns, etc. (scene, breeding grounds,
vicinity of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada). In this connec-
tion the services of Mr. C. A. Corwin have been secured to prepare the
painted backgrounds. Ten large mammals have been added to the
systematic series of mounted mammals during the year. These
include 2 glacier bears, 1 Stone’s caribou 1, mountain goat, 2
Alaska wolves, 1 wolverene, and 2 Alaska lynx. About 80 small
and medium-sized birds have been finished and placed on exhibition.
A collection of photographs of living animals intended especially for
use of the taxidermists has been begun and proves most valuable.
One fish case containing 4 groups of fresh-water fishes and 36 jars of
fishes in formaldehyde have been installed. One python has been
mounted, and a large alligator has been installed in the exhibition
rooms. In progress of preparation is a case 6 x 12 feet to contain
6 groups of tropical fishes, each group with a glass front 3 x 6 feet;
below these groups, occupying the entire floor of the case, is being
installed a group consisting of a large tiger shark and her 44 young.
Much attention has been given during the past year to the collection
of local insects, with a view to installing an exhibition collection
representing the insect fauna of the State. For several years it has
not been possible to prepare the specimens as rapidly as they were
received, with the result that a large amount of material has ac-
cumulated which has not been pinned. It was to the preparation of
these insects that more time was devoted than to any other work,
by the Assistant Curator. Owing to facilities for degreasing skulls
and skeletons, which were secured through the courtesy of Mr.
William Warwick, Superintendent of the Standard Oil Company
plant at Whiting, Indiana, who placed a building at the disposal of
the Museum for that purpose, 43 skeletons and skulls were degreased.
