To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History: (ES TREE ET Re The death of Mr. Marshall Field, the founder of the Museum, has occurred since the date of the last report. The Trustees of the Museum have expressed their estimate of Mr. Field’s character and services to society, by formal resolutions. The Director and scientific and busi- ness staff of the institution have no opportunity of offering their tribute except through the medium of this report. It would be difficult to convey an adequate idea of the impression made upon the working body of the Museum by the death of Mr. Field without apparent exaggeration, but this must be said: There was no one in the service of the Museum who did not feel an uncommon, solemn sense of personal loss and individual grief. Mr. Field visited the Museum much oftener than would have been supposed by those acquainted only with his business habits. He had a better understanding of the purposes, the needs, the dif- ficulties, and the possibilities of the Museum than any person except those intimately associated with its direct management. It cannot be said that Mr. Field was proud of the Museum, but he was grateful that this institution had grown up in Chicago. He was conscious that his public spirit was doing good for society, and he was aware of the fact that his aid had contributed to give Chicago a standing as a culture seeking and teaching community, in every thoughtful, intellectual center, at home and abroad. Mr. Field did not command respect; he invited it. No one connected with the institution, from the least to the greatest in im- portance, but had been made to feel by some indescribable look, movement or expression, of which Mr. Field was complete master, that the efforts of this particular person were understood and appre- ciated by him. It gave everyone connected with the Museum the greatest satisfaction to know that Mr. Field was in the building and was inspecting his work. His questions and observations, though often keen and searching, were always marked by modesty and defer- ence, and strangers seeing him pass about the courts and halls would not distinguish him from a casual visitor. 7 8 FIELD Museum oF NATURAL History—Reports, Vot. III. The serious and anxious bearing of all of the employees in the Museum,— the common laborer, the janitor, the skilled workman, the clerks,— and throughout the entire staff during the week preced- ing his death, and the expressions and manner of regret and grief after his death, disappearing very slowly as the days grew, gave unques- tioned testimony of the genuineness of the prevailing unusual sorrow that the improving and helpful influence of the splendid character, whose name was borne by the institution for which they labored, had been withdrawn. Naturally, while Mr. Field officially had nothing to do with the conduct of the Museum, many questions in one way and another reached him for advice and decision. Mr. Field was wise in his con- ception of a subject, and he seemed to get directly at the positive and negative elements of a problem. He was just and fair, and in weighing out a general proposition, he never appeared to lose account of the individual equation, that is to say, what the result might be at present, or in the future, to any individual, no matter how humble, who might be involved in the outcome. In cases where he had learned of the illness or misfortune of any one connected with the Museum, his personal and helpful attentions, where possible, were never lack- ing, while his individual courtesies were numerous and unfailing. From the day that Mr. Field permitted his name to be used in desig- nating the institution, no one connected with it doubted the security | of its future, nor the certainty of its development along right lines. His name was a great asset, as it has become a valuable legacy. : 2 I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the Museum for the year ending December 31, 1906: The announcement of the change in the name of the Museum has been received with satisfaction by contemporaries, and with the approval of the general public. This change established, as it states clearly, the scope of the institution. In anticipation of this step, the Curators of the departments have been engaged for some time in removing irrelevant material, and since the date of the change, which carried with it a contraction of operations to within the exact lines of the natural sciences, much other material has been taken from exhibition and the departments readjusted to the new order of things. Coincident with the change in the name of the Museum, the Trustees made several alterations in the articles of incorporation and the by-laws of the corporate body. Among these, an important "I "Id ‘SLYOd3ay ‘HLVAQG S:O1gI4 “YW OINIMO1104 SAVG ALYIH | YOS G3SOdxqW VONNLOY WNASNIA) NI bo pitts NSISAG SONINYNOW!W “AYOLSIH IWYHNLVN JO WASSNW G1als JAN., 1907. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 9 change was that of the fiscal year, which was made to close December thirty-first, instead of September thirtieth, each year. This report, consequently, covers fifteen months—namely, from October first, 1905, to December thirty-first, 1906. A provision in the will of Mr. Field gave to the Museum the sum of four million dollars for a building to be erected upon a site to be - furnished for that purpose, provided a suitable one is procured within six years from the date of. Mr. Field’s death. The plans for the new building which Mr. Field had under personal and constant supervision for over a year before his death, and in which he took the deepest interest, were upon a scale calling for the expenditure of more than four million dollars. The architects have, therefore, been en- gaged the past year in conforming the plans to these new conditions, and in this work the Director and the Curators of the scientific departments have been giving aid. The plans are now practically complete, and all of the authorities have agreed upon their adaptability and ampleness to and for the practical purposes of the Museum, and, when pending questions affecting the proposed site in Grant Park shall have been determined, work upon the new building will be com- menced. Messers. D. H. Burnham & Company are the architects. The donation of $20,000, made by Robert F. Cummings for the purpose of an ethnological survey of the Philippine Islands, has en- abled the Museum to inaugurate this work among the peoples of that archipelago. It is believed that the contribution of Mr. Cummings will be supplemented from other sources, if not increased by himself, and that the Museum will be able to maintain parties for investigation and collection in these islands for several years. Account of what has already been accomplished in carrying into effect the intentions of this contribution will be found in this report, among the references to the department of Anthropology. MAINTENANCE.— The amount expended for the maintenance of the Museum from October 1, 1905, to December 31, 1906, was $156,415, which, considering the period covered, fifteen months, is well within the authorized Budget. This is especially gratifying when the unusual cost of repairs and improvements to the building is considered, which, as years go on, naturally demand increased attention and watchful- ness. The total amount expended, as shown by the financial state- ment, was $236,740; the difference is accounted for by special appro- priations for cases, expeditions, and collections purchased. STAFF OF THE Museum.— The resignation of Curator D. G. Elliot 1060s Firtp Museum oF NaturaAL History—ReEports, Vot. III. oft the Department of Zodlogy, and his acceptance of the post of Honorary and Supervisory Curator of the same department, was an important change in the scientific staff during the year. The change was the result of the consideration of two years, and is intended to give Mr. Elliot greater freedom of action with regard to his individual work and movements, and at the same sime to retain to the depart- ment, over which he has presided since the opening of the Museum, the benefits of his scholarly attainments and wide Museum experience. His successor as Curator of the department is Charles B. Cory, lately ot Boston, but now a resident of Chicago, who, since the inaugura- tion of the Museum, has been the Curator of Ornithology. Orni- thology now becomes a division of the department of Zodlogy, and Mr. Cory becomes the curator of all the divisions and sections that would naturally come under Zodlogy. The personnel of the depart- mental staff remains otherwise unchanged. Lecture Courses. — Three Lecture Courses have been given since the date of the last Annual Report, and a gratifying increase in the attendance has to be recorded.

Owing to the great amount of material which has been received by this department during the year, and owing to the absence of the Assistant Curator of Ethnology on expedition for a large part of the year, a great deal of cataloguing had to be postponed. The manuscripts of specimen labels for the North Pacific Coast collections, numbering several thousand, have been prepared and are in the hands of the Museum printer. Case labels have been printed for six Northwest Coast Halls, as well as for all cases in California Hall, and nearly all have been put in place. In the Department of Botany, the cataloguing of organized and new material has been kept up to date in the forty-nine record books of the department. In this work, 15,490 entries have been made ‘during the year, making a total of 193,498 in all. It is worthy of special notice that during the year a complete series of the extensive and valuable Card-Index of Genera, Species and Varieties of Plants published since 1855 (formerly issued by Miss Josephine A. Clark, Librarian of the Department of Agriculture, Washington, but latterly published by the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University), containing Over 40,000 printed cards, has been acquired and carefully arranged, and a new steel case, especially designed to accompany the steel her- barium cases secured last year, has been installed to accommodate this index and the Index Botanique Universelle. = = Z < a .O) Zz - Herbarium Specimiens: Bermudas, eer ease le ee Beans . . .

This is due to the fact that for three years very few cases have been provided, although several collections of great magni- tude have been received. This has made necessary a thorough rearrangement of the stored material of the Department, for which to provide even temporary shelter it has been necessary to utilize discarded cases which the Department of Botany found unsuitable for exhibition purposes. It is estimated that material is now in storage sufficient to fill at least six exhibition halls. The installation of the Northwest Coast collection has been completed, the Kwakiutl collection having been installed in Halls 11 and 12, Salish collection in Hall 13, Bella Coola and Nootka in Hall rs. The new installations in the Department of Botany of old and additional material accomplished during the year make a very credit- able showing in the natural orders represented. They are as follows: Two cases have been added to the five previously representing the Pine Family, one presenting the carpology of the Pinacez, together with many interesting products of the family; the other illustrating the use of Pine barks in native textile products and other ways; the case illustrating the utilization of the needles of the Long Leaf Pine has been reorganized and augmented. The five cases representing the great family of the Grasses have received expansion by five new ones. One of these contains a very valuable and typical series of the useful bamboos of Japan; another has been installed with the various utilizations of the fiber grasses and paper-making grasses; another exemplifies the manufacture of sugar from the sugar-cane and shows different forms of native sugars from many parts of the world; another extends the products of Indian Corn; another has been devoted to the various cereal grains; and the one case formerly_illustrating the types of maize has been amplified by a second, completing this impor- tantfeature. The three cases formerly representing the Palm Family "GO6L AO NOILIGAdXW IWOIDOIOLNOAIWd, WNASNI) Ad VLONVG HLNOS NI G3L031109 ‘“(VNITS4 SILOINIG) LVQ HLOOL-Y3EVS LONILX4 JO NOLA1axS “Id “‘SLYOday *AYOLSIH IWYNLVN JO WNASAW Q7als JAN., 1907. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 29 have been augmented by five others, installed with particularly inter- esting material, as follows: one case showing the growth and utilization of the Creeping Palms (the rattan and ivory-nut palms); another case illustrating by a fine series of specimens the character and utili- zations of the wood, ekels, and leaf of the Cocoanut Palm; another displays the various uses of the cocoanut itself, its ““meat”’ and “‘shell;”’ another has been arranged to illustrate the various kinds of fruits in the Palme and their utilization; another shows the fibers and other products of the Black Palms (Borassus, Arenga, and Coryphal), the fifth being devoted to the Bermuda Palmetto(Sabal Blackbeurnianun). The Lily Family now has representation in a complete case of various products and characters, as has also the Banana Family. A half- case has been installed with interesting products of the Ginger Family, another with a fine series of the fruits of the Walnut Family, and a third adds to the former representation of the Fig Family a complete series illustrating the manufacture of Siamese and Laos papers from the bark of Streblus asper. A full case has been installed with various fibers of the Nettle Family, and another devoted to the wide range of fibrous materials yielded by the Mallow family. The three cases formerly devoted to the Legumes have been augmented by two others devoted to the Ground-nut, Gums, and various fruits and seeds of economic value or botanic interest. A half-case now inaugurates an exhibit of the Rose Family; another the Cycads and their starches, the Yews, the Rushes, the Naiads, and the Candle trees; and a third has been devoted to the Sedges and their utilization. A beginning has also been made in the proper casing of the extensive dendrological collections of the Department, three cases having been installed with the unique series of Jamaica woods, and a fourth devoted to a complete illustration of the products of destructive distillation of wood. In addition to these installations, considerable time has been devoted to the further and more complete organization of the study-reference material. This valuable series (duplicating for the purposes of investigators the specimens entering into the permanent installations) is daily proving its great usefulness to the ends of the Department. The most important work of installation in the Department of Geology has been the entire reinstallation of the collections of syste- matic mineralogy and structural geology. These collections occupied Halls 63, 64 and 65. All former cases were removed and new cases provided for the collection throughout. Twenty-two wall cases and sixteen floor cases were provided. Each wall case has two 30 «© Fietp Museum oF NaTuraL History—Reports, Vot. III. swinging lights of plate glass 68x70 inches in size. The interiors are fitted with shelves supported by metal brackets, which are screwed to strips of strap-iron having-holes at intervals of one inch. The — shelving is thus adjustable at small intervals of height or width to suit the demands of installation. The interiors of the cases are lined with painter’s muslin stretched tightly and painted black, giving a smooth, even finish. The specimens are installed immediately upon the shelves. The labels are supported by individual wooden strips in which slots are cut. The floor cases are made as in paleontology, so that the small specimens can be easily and thoroughly examined. For this purpose it is obviously necessary to bring the specimen to the height of the eye and as little removed from it laterally as possible. Cases of the ““A”’ type best meet this requirement and at the same time provide more exhibition space to a given amount of floor space than a flatcase. The cases adopted for this purpose were made four inches higher than those used in paleontology and the exhibition portion carried three inches lower. Thus, increased exhibition space was gained, the lights being 36 x 58 inches in size, as compared with those 31X56 inches used previously. It having been found that ground glass, as hitherto used in the top and ends, was not necessary for lighting, wooden panels were used in its place, thus securing an effect of greater richness and solidity. Triangular wooden screens occupy the interior of the case as before, and upon these the minerals are installed. Each specimen occupies an individual block which is fastened to the screen. The blocks used vary in size, according to the size of the specimen. The front of each block is beveled and provided with a bead which supports the label. All the case interiors are black and the labels are black cardboard, printed with aluminum ink. The plan of keeping the fittings and labels subordinate in general to the specimens themselves is thus maintained and a satisfactory and attractive effect secured. The floor cases are, as stated, reserved for specimens so small as to require close inspection in order to have their features of interest revealed. The collections were completely worked over before installation, so as to incorporate all new material and weed out duplicates from the exhibition series. About ten thousand speci- mens are now on exhibition in this collection. For the collection illustrating structural geology only wall cases are employed, since these are exceptionally adapted to the exhibition of large specimens and the collection is mostly of this character. The specimens as thus installed are well lighted and the hall makes a very satisfactory AN. 1907: ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. glut appearance. A relief map illustrating the oil-fields of the United States has been prepared and hung in Hall 71, devoted to petroleum and its products. This map is uniform in size and treatment with those already on exhibition, illustrating the distribution of zinc, copper, and iron ores. In Halls 76 and 77, devoted to physiographic geology, fifteen of the large relief maps have been covered with glass. This insures protection from further injury by dust and enhances the appearance of the display. The collections in Hall 78 have been remounted and relabeled throughout. A number of additional shelves have been provided for the cases, in order to accommodate the large increase in the collections due to material received chiefly from the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. These include large additions to the series of abrasives, salt, barite, phosphates and micas. The mounting isin the shape of individual blocks and stands calculated to exhibit each specimen to the best advantage. The four large floor cases containing the collection of gems in Higinbotham Hall have been thoroughly renovated. Thecase linings having become much dis- colored through age and the entrance of dust, the cases were therefore completely relined with white silk crepe. Pads of the same material bound with white silk cord were prepared, and upon these the individ- ual specimens have been mounted. New labels printed on white cardboard have also been provided. Thus, a background of uniform color is obtained, against which the gems form the only coloring, and the effect is very satisfactory. Case labels were also provided for the cases in this hall throughout. For the large Triceratops skull collected by the Paleontological Expedition in Montana in 1904, a Special case 5x 7x 7 feet was constructed and installed in Hall 36. The large Mosasaurus slab, 3 x 12 feet, obtained the same year, was installed in one of the wall cases in Hall 59. Other specimens of fossil verte- brates installed include large skulls of Elotherium and Aceratherium, a skeleton of Dinictis, and several smaller skulls. The wall cases in Hall 66, containing volcanic products, rock textures, etc., have been thoroughly cleaned and the specimens reinstalled. Such work of cleaning and reinstallation, made necessary by the temporary cases employed, will not be required when permanent cases are provided. Three individual fulgurites have been assembled and mounted. In the paleontological iaboratory the following specimens have been worked out and mounted: Complete skeleton of Mosasaurus twelve feet long; complete skeleton of Dinictis felina; complete head of Elotherium ingens; complete head of Hyracodon nebrascensis; two skulls of Aceratherium; two skulls of Mesohippus bairdii; one 32 FieLtp Museum or Natura. History—Reports, VoL. III. skull of Dapheznus; one skull of Hoplophoneus; one skull of Dinictis; pelvic girdle of Elasmosaurus. In the Department of Zodlogy, comparatively little new instal- lation was attempted. This is in a measure due to the resignation of Curator Elliot and the absence from the Museum of the Taxidermist- in-Chief. However, the Coral collection was very carefully gone over, reinstalled. and new labels prepared. The work on the Illinois Bird Collection is progressing and will soon be open for inspection by the public. No large mammals or groups were placed on exhibition, although several are in process of construction. The division of Ento- mology has been provided during the year with one hundred and twenty-six glass-topped drawers with racks, and ten dust-proof tin cabinets for the preservation of both pinned and unpinned insects. The pressing needs of an exhibition collection of local insects has not been forgotten. For this purpose two table cases have been prepared and assigned a position in an alcove of the West Court. In these cases will be placed representatives of Illinois insects as soon as the various orders are properly prepared for exhibition. In the Division of Osteology eight complete skeletons were mounted and placed on exhibition and seventy-one skulls were mounted for the special craniological study collections. In addition, four hundred and sixty-four skulls have been bleached and cleaned for use in the study collection of mammals. Taxipermy. — Owing to the absence of the Taxidermist-in-Chief, who has been on expedition in Africa, work in this section, as repre- sented by the construction of groups for exhibition, has been practically suspended. But much of importance and value has been ac- complished, and a large number of individual specimens have been mounted for the systematic series. The inventory of the skins on hand in this section —skins intended for mounting or exchange — has been carefully revised and amended to date, and presents a formidable list in both numbers and varieties.

This impro ve- ment has been brought about by the use of a size first and then the application of an aluminum bronze powder. The former method was to use aluminum ink only, which necessitated the taking of three or four impressions of each label in order to obtain a final clear effect. While more time is required to print the labels by means of the bronze powder, the results seem to justify the additional labor.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 1907. _ 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, 1907. The Museum has operated one year under its new By-Laws, whose complete revision was demanded by the establishment of its scope and the definition of its endowment. In revising the rules and regulations governing the staff of the Museum, the responsibilities and authority of the various officers and their relations to each other were clearly set forth, and the experiences of the year under these rules, have satisfactorily tested their rationality and effectiveness. The rearrangement of the financial and executive system of the Institution, including the election of an Auditor, has simplified and unified the business of the Museum. A most important event of the year was a contribution from Mrs. T. B. Blackstone to defray the expenses of an expedition to Tibet, for collecting and study. Dr. Berthold Laufer lately of Columbia University accepted the charge of this expedition and is to» devote three years to the work. Further reference to this expedition is made elsewhere. The controversy as to the site in Grant Park for the new Museum building has made progress in the Courts, but at the date of this report remains undecided. Much attention has been given to the interior plans of the new structure, more especially to the suites of offices, the location and arrangement of the lecture halls, the admission of visitors, checking systems, etc. MAINTENANCE.— The sum of $161,750 was appropriated by the Trustees for the necessary expenses of maintenance during the fiscal year. The actual amount expended was $135,512, leaving a balance within the anticipated expenses of the year of $26,238. In addition to the cost of maintenance, sums were expended, upon authority of the Board of Trustees, for collections, books, expeditions, field work, and exhibition cases, that brought the total to approximately $180,000. This left a balance within the estimated income of $16,000. Com- paring the expenses of maintenance of this year with those of previous 113 114 FrELD Museum or Natura. History — Reports. Vot. III. years, a slight increase is discovered in the compensation of the staff and assistants, and in amounts expended for material for maintenance and repairs to the building. The matter of repairing and calcimining the exterior walls of the Museum has received considerable attention, and a contrivance introduced by Mr. Akeley, Chief Taxidermist, seems to have solved the problem, and the entire North front of the Museum and most of the two Annexes have received an outward application of stucco, greatly improving the appearance of the build- ing. It is the intention to complete the work as soon as weather conditions allow. STAFF OF THE Museum.— One addition was made during the year to the Staff, that being the appointment of Dr. Berthold Laufer as Assistant Curator of Asiatic Ethnology. Dr. Laufer is a graduate of the University of Berlin and has for over ten years been a student of Chinese and Tibetan culture. He has been associated with the Museum fur Volkerkunde, of Berlin; conducted two expeditions into Asia for the American Museum of Natural History; one into Siberia and the other into China, both in the interest of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition. More recently Dr. Laufer has been associated with the Department of Chinese, Columbia University. Lecture Courses.— Two series of Lectures have been given since the date of the last Annual Report, which were illustrated, and covered an unusually wide range of researchandtravel. The lectures are given at Fullerton Hall, in the Art Institute, and the attendance of the public indicates a continued interest in this means of public instruction. Following is the Twenty-sixth Lecture Course, with the subjects and lecturers delivered during the months of March and April, 1907: March 2.—‘‘The Iron Ores of the Minnesota Ranges.”’ Prof. C. W. Hall, University of Minnesota. March 9g9.—‘‘Scientific Notes on the Russian Convict Island of Sakhalin.”’ Mr. Charles H. Hawes, University of Cambridge, England. March 16.—‘‘ Bird Husbandry.”’ Dr. N.

Through the medium of exchange with contemporary institutions, upon which the library depends largely for its growth, it continues to receive valuable publications. Exchanges have been received from 583 institutions and 130 individuals. Gifts to the General Library worthy of special mention have been received from Mr. Stephen Sommier, Florence, Italy, 1 volume; Mr. Theodor Koch-Grunberg, Berlin, 4 volumes; Mr. John W. Barrett, Washington, D. C.,10 volumes; Mr. H. N. Higin- botham, Chicago, 28 volumes; Mr. Frederick J. V. Skiff, 81 volumes; Naturhistorische Verein, Bonn, 58 volumes; Naturforschende Gesell- schaft, Zurich, 47 volumes; Royal Society, London, 38 volumes; Geological Survey of Canada, 12 volumes; Maryland Geological Survey, 7 volumes. Twelve installments of the John Crerar Library cards have been received, alphabetically arranged, and filed; 11,211 cards have been written and distributed in the catalogue. A special feature of the work during the year has been the formation of a Library of Exposition Literature. The volumes presented for the formation of this library by Sir Henry Trueman Wood, Commissioner to the World’s Columbian Exposition, Mr. H. N. Higinbotham, President of the World’s Columbian Exposition, and Frederick J. V. Skiff, approx- imated 1,100 books and pamphlets. From this collection, 668 titles have been selected, chronologically arranged, accessioned, catalogued, and installed in a special room provided for the purpose. The un- bound books are at present in the bindery, and the miscellaneous pamphlets will be filed in neat cloth boxes. The whole forms a very creditable reference library of literature on Expositions from 1851 to 1904. The duplicates of this material have been arranged in three groups. Group 1 contains 260 titles, group 2 contains 156 120 6©>FiELD MusEumM or NatTurAL History — Reports, Vou. III. titles, group 3 contains 88 titles. These several groups have been packed separately, and await further disposition. A number of valuable books have been purchased during the year, but many more are desired, particularly in the departments of Anthropology and Botany. DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LaBeLinc. — The catalog- uing in the Department of Anthropology has been continued almost without interruption throughout the year, over 12,000 specimens having been catalogued, and a card catalogue made of about 7,500 specimens, all of which have been entered in the inventory books, which now number twenty-seven. All the specimens of a number of installed cases in the Department of Botany have been exhaustively labeled; all labels for the dendro- logic installation are printed and in readiness for use. The copy has been written for all the unlabeled material that has been installed; all new material has been properly organized, catalogued and cared for; the index of vernacular names and references augmented by several thousand cards, and all matters pertaining to the collec- tions and work of the department kept rigidly up to date. Specimens in the Department of Geology are inventoried and catalogued as received. The total number of entries made during the year 1s 10,635, which, added to the previously recorded number, gives 72,837 as the total present number of entries in the Department. The principal work of labeling performed was in connection with the systematic mineral collection and the collections in Hall 78. For the systematic minerals a total of 1,925 labels was prepared during the year, of which 1,536 have been printed and distributed. The sizes of labels used for this collection are governed by those of the specimen mounts, four different forms being employed. For the collections in Hall 78, 957 labels have been prepared, of which 838 have been printed and distributed. These labels also vary in size, according to the size of the mount, three forms being employed, besides descriptive labels. Aluminum ink and black cardboard have been used for all these labels. The increased interest evinced by visitors in these collections since the labeling has been completed is noticeable and gratifying. Additional labels prepared during the year have included fourteen fully descriptive labels for the relief maps and about one hundred labels for meteorites and paleontological specimens. In the Department of Zodlogy considerable clerical work was accomplished, the entries in the inventory books registering 9,445, ANE) coos.

Foremost among these is the material obtained by Assistant Curator Simms from the Igorot tribes of northern Luzon, chiefly from the prov- inces of Lepanto, Bontoc, and Nueva Vizcaya. Mr. Simms remained many months in this region, as noted in the last report, engaged in investigation under the Robert F. Cummings fund. The collection is probably the largest and most representative ever made from any one tribe in the Island. Second in importance is a large and representa- tive collection of ethnological specimens, illustrating the culture of the Sauk and Fox Indians, of Tama, Iowa, made by Dr. William Jones. This collection admirably supplements one made at the same place several years ago by the Curator of the Department. Asaresult of the expedition from the Department of Zodlogy in British East Africa, Mr. C. E. Akeley brought back several hundred unusually interesting specimens, representative of the culture of several tribes of that region. Mr. V. Shaw Kennedy, who accompanied Mr. Akeley on that expedi- tion, brought a number of specimens to Chicago with him, and has presented them to the Museum. From Vice-president Ryerson has been received, asa gift, a small but valuable collection made a few years ago by Curator Cory among the Seminoles of Florida. From Tuan Fang, a viceroy of The Two Kiang Provinces, China, was received a very interesting, ancient Chinese monument, bearing inscriptions in excellenitystate Or preservation, » Uhis eit of the Viceroy was to commemorate his visit to this Institution. Of the collections ac- quired by purchase, the largest was that secured from a well-known 122 FreLD MusEum oF NATuRAL History — Reports, Vot. III. London dealer in ethnological material. This collection consisted almost exclusively of rare specimens from different islands of the Pacific, especially Polynesia, and some unusually interesting material from Benin, West Africa. The most notable specimens in this collection are four beautifully carved ceremonial clubs from the Marquesas Islands. From Mr. Irving Channon, for many years a missionary to Micronesia, was secured by purchase a collec- tion of several hundred specimens from that region, especially from the Marshall and Gilbert groups. These specimens are of more than usual value, for they were collected personally by Mr. Channon, and are thoroughly identified as to locality. From Mr. Rudolph Parkin- son, Ralum, Bismarck Archipelago, was secured by purchase seventy- seven skulls from New Britain. Two exchanges with other institu- tions have been made during the year, which are worthy of mention. One is with the Brooklyn Institute Museum, whereby this Institution secured a large quantity of osteological material from the Southwest, and a small, but carefully selected collection of ethnological specimens from the peublo of Zufii. Arrangements were made during the year whereby the Museum expects to receive shortly from the Museum fur Volkerkunde, of Berlin, a considerable portion of the great collec- tion made in the interior of Brazil by Theodore Koch. Word has been received by the Museum that Mr. Cole has shipped from Manila a very large collection of ethnological material, which he has accumu- lated during his two years’ residence with the Tinguianes, in north- western Luzon, especially in the province of Abra. In the Department of Botany the most important accession during the year is the complete herbarium of the University of Chicago, founded upon the collections of Prof. John M. Coulter, and augmented under his direction. This herbarium has been entirely rearranged for the purpose of cataloguing and distribution into the organized herbarium of the Museum. It is found to con- tain about 51,000 specimens, of which about three fourths are mounted. The principal collectors represented by fairly complete sets are: O. D. Allen; Baker, Earle & Tracy; John Ball, Thomas H. Bonser, Wm. Canby, M. A. Carleton, John (Ve Cammen A. H. Curtiss, Drake & Dickson, B. W. Evermann, M. L. Fernald, Heyde & Lux, Volney Havard, F. H.

With this herbarium the University transfers all its taxonomic research to this Museum. Another important herbarium has been secured in that of the noted Swedish botanist, Dr. L. |.. Wahlstedt. The collection numbers approximately 15,000 specimens, chiefly of European plants, and is especially rich in Characee, Viole, and Epilobia. The Characee alone are represented by upwards of 2200 critically determined speci- mens, and the Viole by about 1500 specimens. Some of the more noteworthy series of exsiccate, illustrating these groups of plants included in the herbarium, are the following: Dze Characeen Europa’s in getrockneten Exemplaren, Prof. Dr. A. Braun, Dr. L. Raben- horst and Dr. E. Stizenberger; Characee Americaneé exsiccate, T. F. Allen; Characee Scandinavie exsiccate quas dtstribuerunt O. Nordstedt et L. J.

Among the accessions by gift in the Department of Geology, the following may be mentioned: a large specimen of crystallized copper from Cananea, Mexico, from Mr. Edward E. Ayer; specimens of emerald and aquamarine, one specimen of parisite, and four superb iN. 1908. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. eo eight specimens gold ores, all from the United States of Colombia, from Sefior F. Pereira Gamba; eleven specimens rough and polished smoky quartz crystal from Butte, Montana, from Mr. A. P. Pohndorf; seven relief maps from the Atlas School Supply Company; seven specimens of the diamond-bearing rocks of Pike County, Arkansas, from Mr. A. Q. Millar; two large specimens lead and zinc ores from Platteville, Wisconsin, from the Empire Mining Company; five specimens Peruvian vanadium ores, from the American Vanadium Company; nineteen specimens clays and briquettes, from Mr. John J. Moroney; and several specimens copper ores and barites, from the Chicago Copper Refining Company. Several valuable accessions were received by exchange, among which may be mentioned a large section, of the Santa Rosa meteorite, from Mrs. L. A. Coonley-Ward; of the Elm Creek meteorite, from Ward’s Natural Science Establish- ment; and of the Goalpara meteorite, from the Geological Survey of India. From the Geological Survey of Canada was received, in a similar manner, a fine cast of the Iron Creek meteorite; from J. E. Narraway, a series of fossil trilobites, and other invertebrates, and from Junius Henderson, a series of Cretaceous mollusks from Colorado. The most important accession by purchase was that of the Fultz collection of invertebrate fossils, numbering over five thousand specimens. This collection is especially valuable for the series of crinoids and blastoids of Lower Carboniferous age which it contains. They were collected from the Burlington limestone, at the locality which furnished the finest specimens ever secured while it lasted, but which is no longer productive. In addition, about four thousand invertebrate fossils from other localities in the Mississippi Valley were secured with the collection. A small collection purchased from Prof. A. H. Cole furnished about 250 specimens of Palzozoic inverte- brates from New York and Vermont localities. A seventeen pound individual of the Admire meteorite was purchased; also a fine series of topaz associated with phenacite, from Chatham, New Hampshire. Accessions by expeditions include about forty specimens of ores, minerals, and rocks from the north shore of Lake Superior, collected by the Curator; about nine hundred specimens Devonian inverte- brate fossils, from Little Traverse Bay, Michigan, collected by the Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology, and about forty specimens erosion forms, from Little Sister Bay, Wisconsin, collected by the Curator of Botany. The Curator of Zodlogy reports that the accessions in the Division 128 FireLtp Museum or Natura. History — Reports, VOL. III. of Ornithology number 626 specimens, most of which were collected by members of the staff, in Illinois and adjoining states. There were 216 specimens added by purchase, and a number of valuable gifts also appear in the list. The Department collected mammal skins in Illinois, Wisconsin, and California, numbering nearly 500 skins. The expedition conducted by Chief Taxidermist Akeley contributed mammal specimens from British East Africa, mention of which is made elsewhere. In the divisions of Ichthyology and Herpetology, there were added, approximately, 2,000 specimens, of which one half were received from the East African Expedition. The number of insects added were considerable over 3,500, mostly from [Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The Museum also purchased a valuable collection of shells from a collector in Indianapolis. An interesting series of shells, illustrating the pearl button manufacture, was pre- sented by the Automatic Button Company, of Muscatine, lowa. Two sponges and two hydroids from Cape Nome were presented by Mr. lel JAN, [knoe EXPEDITIONS AND FIELD Work.— During part of the year the Curator of Anthropology continued his investigations among the Pawnee, in behalf of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. In connection with this work he spent ten weeks at Columbia University, working up the linguistics of the Skidi Pawnee, under the direction of Dr. Franz Boas. Three investigators are now in the field in the Philip- pine Islands, engaged in ethnological investigation, funds for this work having been generously provided by Mr. Robert F. Cummings, as referred to in thelast report. Miss Laura E. Benedict is still among the Bagobo, where she has been now for nearly two years. Mr. Fay Cooper Cole left Chicago in December, 1906, and proceeded to north- western Luzon, where he has remained since, investigating the ethnol- ogy of the little-known Tinguianes, in the province of Abra, Ilocos Sur, and Ilocos Norte. During this time Mr. Cole has made several hundred photographs, a large number of life masks, and has made numerous physical anthropological studies. At the present time he is engaged in linguistic investigations. Dr. William Jones left Chicago in August, and proceeded to Manila, whence, after making certain pre- parations, he left for a period of at least two years’ investigation among the practically unknown tribes in eastern and northern Luzon. When last heard from, Dr. Jones was ascending the Cagayan River, and expects to make his headquarters at Echague. His special object in this region will be the investigation of the Negritos. Before FIELD MESEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY. REPORTS, PL. XXl. Fossit CRINOIDS. DEPARTMENT OF GEOLOGY. ENE, 1008. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 129 leaving for the Philippines, Dr. Jones spent a month among the Sauk and Fox Indians of Tama, Iowa, making a study of their material culture, and obtaining specimens for the Museum. Through the generosity of Mrs. T. B. Blackstone, who has recently provided a fund, the department has been able to add to its staff Dr. Berthold Laufer, whois now making preparation to start for a three years’ period of investigation in Tibet. This gift of Mrs. Blackstone marks a new crayim te mistory o1 the department.’ It is not only the largest sum ever set aside for one specific object, but 1t enables the depart- ment to undertake an investigation of almost universal interest, and to place in charge of it one thoroughly competent. Asa result of the Blackstone Tibetan Expedition, it is expected that not only will there be assembled a great collection illustrating every phase of the material culture of the Tibetans, which will be of the very greatest value to all students of the history of Asiatic culture, but it is believed that, through Dr. Laufer’s investigation in early Tibetan literature, he will make material contributions to the general history of human culture. In this connection, it is interesting to note that the New- berry Library has made a special contribution of $4,000.00, which is to be expended by Dr. Laufer, during his three year’s residence in Asia, in the purchase of a library of Tibetan literature. The Curator of the Department of Botany, in company of Dr. N. L. Britton, Director of the New York Botanical Garden, spent ten weeks of the early spring in a continuance of their explorations of the Bahamian Archipelago. A schooner was chartered and com- missioned, at Nassau, from which large and particularly exhaustive collections were made on Eleuthera, Cat Island, Conception Island, Little San Salvador, Long Island and Watling’s. All these islands were crossed afoot at several points, and traversed for considerable distance in all directions, from a number of landing places. The expedi- tion returned about two thousand specimens, and secured critical notes, observations, and photographs of fully fifteen hundred more. This work was also augmented by commissioning Mr. Louis J. K. Brace to explore thoroughly Acklin’s Island, Crooked Island, Fortune Island, and the north end and northwest side of Andros. His work resulted in two thousand additional specimens from these interesting localities. Another expedition, in continuance of this same work, was sent out in December, consisting of Dr. M. A. Howe, Mr. Percy Wilson, and Louis Brace; they are to undertake the southeastern islands of the group — French Cays, Samana, Mariguan, the Caicos, 130 FizrLtp Museum or Natura. History — Reports, Vot. III. and the Ragged Cays. Mr. Huron H. Smith, Preparator in Dendro- logy, spent six weeks in southeastern Missouri, at three forest points, in the collection of North American Forestry material. The collec- tions, amounting to over a car load of material, will be reported upon later. Mr. O. E. Lansing, Jr., has continued his field work in the Lake Chicago Basin, adding a number of species to his quite exhaus- tive series from this region. The Curator of the Department of Geology collected a series of ores, minerals, and rocks from various localities on the north shore of Lake Superior during a trip made to that region in July. Some valuable geological photographs of the region were also made. Pho- tographs illustrating the ancient shore-lines of Lake Chicago, designed for exhibiting in connection with the relief map of the region, were also made by the Curator during the fall. Mr. A. W. Slocom carried on some collecting in the region of Little Traverse Bay, Michigan, continuing the work of last year. Especially fine series which he secured were those of fossil corals, stromatoporoids and brachiopods. Pleistocene fossils, from the marls of Oden and Kegomic, were also obtained. Inall about nine hundred specimens were obtained, which, added to those collected last year, afford a representative series of the Hamilton and Pleistocene fossils of the region. Occasional visits were also made by Mr. Slocom to quarries in the Chicago Basin, for the purpose of- securing any new material excavated. From this material, and that previously secured, he described during the year nine new species of crinoids. No field work was undertaken in vertebrate paleontology, the work of erecting the Dinosaur skeleton having, of necessity, engrossed the entire attention of the staff. At the date of the last Report, the African expedition was on its way back to the United States. Mr. C. E. Akeley, the Chief of the Expedition, provides the following narrative: “We left Chicago August 13, 1905, arriving in London August 26th, where we joined Mr. Vernon Shaw-Kennedy, who had gone on some weeks in advance for the purpose of preparing the outfit, most of which, consisting of supplies, food, tents, amunition, photographic material, etc., was purchased in London. Mr. Edmund Heller, who had been called from field work in Central America to accompany the expedition, overtook us in London, and on September 8th, we sailed from Dover by the S. S. President of the D. O. A. Line, arriving at Mombasa, East Coast of Africa, on October 8th. Our goods were duly landed, passed through the customs; porters, gun-bearers, and JAN., 1908. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. aie personal servants were engaged, licenses procured, and on October 14th, we boarded a train on the Uganda Railway and on the following day arrived at Nairobi, 327 miles inland. October 18th, we began active operations in the field, within twenty-five miles of Nairobi, on the Athi Plains. Two anda half months were spent in this region, and in the number of specimens collected, this was the most productive period of the entire trip. On December 30th we moved our camp, by rail, to Kijabe, forty-four miles up the line, for the purpose of securing a series of Cape Buffalo. A month spent here resulted in obtaining only a single specimen of Buffalo and a fair number of other specimens, among which were a series of Colobus Monkeys and a Rhinosceros. The following month (February) was spent at Lake Elementeita, fifty miles northwest of Kijabi, and this proved a reasonably profitable month. About March 8th the outfit was again moved by rail to Molo, 484 miles from the coast, where we went into camp some twelve miles south of the railway. Our stay here was made exceedingly un- pleasant by the incessant cold rains, and failure, again, to secure Buffalo contributed to our discomfiture. We were fairly recom- pensed, however, for the time spent, by the addition to our collections of a series of Topi, a series of Jackson’s Harteebest, a very fine male lion, and a number of smaller mammals. Early in April we returned coastwards to Voi, too miles inland from Mombasa. We had post- poned our visit to Voi until the last because of the unhealthfulness of the region, and the two weeks spent there resulted in a meagre showing of material collected, owing to fever attacking two of our party, as well as a large number of the employed natives. The caravan was discharged at the close of our work at this place, and we returned to Nairobi, and proceeded to pack the collections for shipment. Messers. Shaw-Kennedy and Heller made preparations to return home at this time. The work of packing the collections occupied five weeks, the lack of proper facilities making it a tedious task; fifty barrels that had been ordered from London proved use- less, and obliged us to resort to the use of old oil casks obtained from the Railway Company. About May rst, upon receipt of instructions from the Museum authorities, application was made for permission to cross the Tana River in quest of Buffalo, which was granted, on the understanding that we were not to avail ourselves of the privilege until July. It was therefore decided to employ the intervening time in collecting accessory material for some of the groups, specimens for which had been previously secured. Accordingly, about June 1st, we 132 Fietp Museum or NaturaAL History — Reports, Vot. III. engaged the necessary porters and returned to Athi Plains, where three weeks were spent at Kijabe in making studies for Lion and other groups, and three days in gathering accessory material for a Colobus Monkey group. We then moved to Naivasha (June 28th), with the intention of collecting birds and accessories for a group of the aquatic birds of the Lake Naivasha region. Upon our arrival at the lake, we learned that a closed season had been declared, but, anticipating no difficulty in securing permission to collect the limited amount of material required, application was made to the authorities, who, much to our surprise, refused the desired privileges. Ten days were lost in awaiting this disappointing decision. The trans-Tana trip had been indefinitely postponed on account of trouble with the natives at the base of Mt. Kenya, where the government had sent troops, and were at this time, July 1oth, engaged in warfare, but as it seemed likely that the trouble was nearing the end, the services of Mr. R. J. Cunningham, professional hunter and safari runner, were secured, and we headed for Fort Hall and the Tana River, with the intention of looking for Elephants on the way; three weeks were spent on the Aberdare Mountains, during which time we prepared the skin of one Elephant, a series of Duiker, and a number of other specimens. Upon our arrival at Fort Hall, August 14th, we found H. M. Commissioner, Col. Hayes-Sadler, with his suite, about to depart in company with the Sub-Commissioner, Mr. S. L. Hinde, on a trip into trans-Tana country. Permission was given us to shoot Elephants on Mt. Kenya, as well as Buffalo on the plains. We were honored with an invitation from the Commissioner to accompany the official party so far as our routes paralleled, an invitation which was gratefully accepted. A week later, the edge of the forest at the base of Mt. Kenya was reached, and here work with the Elephants was begun. The five weeks spent among the Elephants was emi- nently satisfactory in point of experience, and knowledge gained of the habits of these interesting animals, but disappointing in that we failed, for want of time, in securing all the specimens required for the group. The return from Mt. Kenya to the Tana River was distressingly slow and tedious, owing to the difficulties encountered in securing porters to move the material, but the Tana was finally reached on October 2nd, and a few days later we proceeded down the river in search of Buffalo. Some six weeks elapsed before we finally succeeded in securing the last of the six specimens desired. The three months in trans-Tana country were months of hard work ‘2-GO6L ‘NOILIGAdXy NVOIYSY LSVQ HSILIYUGQ AONIAOYd VANSY (11NG ONNOA) O1WSANG AdVO “WXX “Id SLYOdSY "AYOLSIH IWHNLVYN SO WNASNW a7als ny JAN., 1908.

Wereturned to Fort Hall on November 22nd, and with 175 porters proceeded to Nairobi with the collections. Mr. Cunningham returned by way of the Aberdare, to bring in the Ele- phant and other skins that had been left on the summit of the moun- tains, nearly four months previously. We reached Nairobi Novem- ber 27th and proceeded with the final packing of the collection, which was shipped by rail to Mombasa, which port it left December 21st, on the 8.58. Admiral; trans-shipped at Naples, and arrived at New York January 28th. The consignment of 84 packages, weighing upwards of 17 tons, arrived at the Museum in perfect condition.”’ It seems a fitting opportunity for both the Museum management and the members of the expedition to express their gratitude to those who, through friendly interest and appreciation of the objects of the expedition, contributed to its success: to Mr. Vernon Shaw- Kennedy, for his untiring energy and loyalty to the best interests of the Museum; to Col. Hayes-Sadler, H. M. Commissioner for British East Africa, and Mr. F. J. Jackson, H. M. Deputy Commissioner, for many privileges and concessions which, by virtue of their high offices, they were able to grant; to Mr. S. L. Hinde, H. M. Sub-Commissioner for Kenya Province, the expedition was indebted for more than official assistance; and to Mr. A. Blayney Percival, Game Ranger, whose fund of information relative to the game districts was always avail- able. Acknowledgment is also made of courtesies and concessions granted by the officials of the Uganda Railway, and for the hos- pitality and good-will accorded the expedition by all government officials with whom the members of the party were brought in contact.

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT AND PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT. — At the end of last year the Department of Anthropology reported that more material awaited installation than at any previous time for ten years. This condition was due to the fact that the accessions for two years had been extremely large and numerous. The necessity for resorting to various makeshifts in order to store this great body of material has existed during part of the present year. Late in the year, however, 40 new cases became available, which, at once, made possible a general rearrangement of certain collections of the depart- ment. Since the arrival of the new cases, the following collections have been installed: Arapaho, Wasco, Pawnee and Javanese. The extensive collection from Borneo has also been installed, as well as a large part of the collections from Africa. For these collections, however, old cases have been utilized; those from Africa in cases that had been abandoned by the Departments of Geology and Botany. The material from the first Cummings’ Philippine Expedition has been installed in Halls 40 and 55, and occupies 28 cases. The new cases have made it possible to remove many collections which have been temporarily installed in Hall 8, and that hall has now been restored to its former condition, and is again devoted exclusively to the archeology of the Southwest. Hall 7 is temporarily occupied by Taxidermy, but it will ultimately receive the overflow collections, both archeological and ethnological, of the Southwest. A portion of the East Annex has been transferred to the Department of Anthro- pology, and this additional space has made possible an extremely desirable change. There has been transferred to the Annex all collections from regions outside of America, and the provisional JAN., 1908. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. ae assignment of space at the present time is as follows: Halls 38, 39, 40, 41. and 5s, Indonesia; Hall 54, Polynesia and Micronesia; Hall 53, Melanesia; Halls 50-52, Africa; Halls 56-58, Asia. This installation of the collections from the South Pacific and Asia, has made possible the rearrangement of Halls 2, 5, and 6, which are now devoted, as are Halls 1, 3 and 4, to North American ethnology. Mr. J. A. Burt, aside from. assisting in the installation of several collections during the year, has carried to completion two interesting and important groups in miniature of the Pawnee, and is well advanced on three additional groups, one being Pawnee, and two Sauk and Fox. The two latter groups have been prepared under the direction of Dr. William Jones. The collection of ceramics having been removed from Hall 33, the Paleozoic fossils, heretofore exhibited in Hall 35, were transferred thereto. This necessitated the removal of the specimens from ten floor and eight wall cases, moving of the cases, and reinstallation of the specimens. Advantage was taken of the opportunity, also, to thor- oughly rearrange the collection. The vacated hall, Hall 35, has been cleared for the exhibition of Dinosaurs, a large amount of this material now being ready for exhibition. In the center of the hall the great Dinosaur torso collected in Colorado by the Museum expedition of 1901, is being erected. This work is of such magni- tude that it has occupied nearly the entire time of Assistant Curator Riggs and assistants during the year and is not yet complete. The torso consists of a nearly complete skeleton posterior to the last cervical vertebra, and is of interest as containing the largest number of bones of an individual Dinosaur of such a size ever mounted. The aggregate weight of the bones is about five tons and when mounted they stand fifteen feet above the floor at their highest point. In order to support this great weight and prevent swaying, it was neces- sary to construct a special framework of structural steel. This consists of a base surmounted by a superstructure, to support the specimen proper. The base has the form of a rectangle, measuring eight by thirty feet. It is made up of two longitudinal channel beams joined together at the ends by transverse beams of the same. Four trans- verse [-beams, intersected by a single line of longitudinal I-beams act as girders and form a series of four crosses in the median line for the support of the vertical columns. All are firmly bolted together at the intersections by means of angles, asin ordinary structural iron work. Four vertical columns support the weight of the specimen. 136 Fretp MusEumM oF NatTurRAL History — Reports, VoL. III. These columns are each made up of four angle-beams joined together by means of solid “‘fillers,’’ and all firmly riveted with flush-head rivets. They vary in size according to the load which they are designed to carry. Each column is braced at its base by four gussets, which are bolted respectively to the four intersecting I-beams, and riveted between the angle-irons of the column in place of the “‘filler.”’ The four vertical columns support a longitudinal T-beam, firmly bolted to their upper ends. The angles formed by the two are tied by short diagonal braces. The T-beam forms the support of the vertebral column, and is bent so as to conform closely to its inferior outline. It is tapered towards the rear end, so that its size is reduced in proportion to the load it is intended to receive. The individual bones are fastened to this framework by forgings of wrought iron. These supports are bent to conform closely to the surface of the bone in order to be as inconspicuous as possible. They attach to the bones, in most instances, by being bent so as to clasp them firmly. Work on the mount has progressed so that the greater part of the vertebral column is now in place. Many of the bones were so dis- torted as to require considerable modification before they could be fitted into their respective positions in the skeleton. A missing femur and ilium have been supplied by modeling them in plaster from the corresponding bones of the opposite side, and several ribs and chevrons have been restored as a whole or in part. As it was found necessary to perform a large part of the shaping of the steel contiguous to the skeleton, a gas forge was placed upon the west porch of Hall 35, so as to provide facilities for heating the individual steel pieces. A temporary sheet-iron shed erected over this permits continuance of the work during the winter months. In the cases left vacant in Hall 36 by removal of portions of the dinosaur skeleton for mounting, there have been installed a sacrum and seven dorsal vertebre of Brachiosaurus, and some minor specimens. To the series on exhibition in Hall 59, have been added during the year two skulls of Promerycocheerus and single skulls of Merycochcerus, Hyen- odon, Hyracodon, Procamelus and Amphicyon. In Hall 61 a superb complete skeleton of Promerycochcerus, worked out during the year, has been placed upon exhibition. Some minor rearrangements of exhibited series have been made in connection with these additions. To the hall of meteorites, Hall 62, a wall case has been added, to provide for increase in the collection, and new specimens received have been installed. Additions to the systematic mineral collection, JAN., 1908. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. ay) Halls 63 and 64, have also been installed as received. A total of 5,469 Specimens is now on exhibition in this collection. The remainder of the collection, classified and arranged for study purposes, occu- pies drawers below the corresponding exhibition cases. The work of providing additional permanent cases for the collections has been continued by furnishing such cases for the systematic rock, marble, and building stone collections. These occupy Halls 66 and 67. The specimens and old cases were entirely removed from these halls, and the walls of Hall 66 renovated and calcimined. Part of the cases removed were transferred to another depart- ment, while others were, with some alterations, placed in the departmental library. The new cases provided for the lithological collection are, in general, of the pattern employed for the systematic collection of minerals. The wall cases are, however, one foot instead of two feet deep, and the floor cases are fitted with glass at the ends as well as atthe sides. The lights of the wall cases are 68 by 70 inches in dimension, and swing outward by means of hinges at the top. The specimens are installed on four series of six-inch shelves, sup- ported by L-shaped brackets screwed to narrow iron strips bolted to the backs of the cases. The lights in the floor cases are 34 by 56 inches in dimension, and swing outward from the top. The speci- mens are installed on individual wooden blocks screwed to pyramidal screens which occupy the case interiors. The blocks are distributed so as to avoid a monotonous appearance, and allow for the exhibition of about one hundred specimens in each case. Drawers in the bases of the cases provide space for study collections. Sixteen cases in all have been provided for this hall, eight of which are floor cases, and eight wall cases. For the marble collection, the type of cases employed is like that already in use in Skiff Hall. In place of shelves, however, screens are provided to which the slabs of marble are fas- tened. The slabs are thus brought in uniform position and close to the eye, while the background enhances the appearance of the whole. Moreover, as in the meteorite cases, the sashes are secured by locks, and felted tongues and grooves, along all unjoined surfaces prevent the entrance of dust. For the installation of objects other than slabs, such as cubes, spheres, and other irregularly shaped specimens, flat cases have been provided. These cases are 44 inches high and 4 by 6 feet inarea. The height of the case portion proper is 12inches. This portion is framed together, with the end lights removable. It rests upon four stout legs, tapering to the floor, all being capable of 138 FizLp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. III. sustaining a weight of one ton. The top light in each case, which is that intended to provide the chief area of display, is 44 by 68 inches in dimensions. Nine of these cases have been provided for the hall. Considerable additions have been made to the clay collec- tions, Hall 68, so that it has been necessary to add four cases to the hall, and to consign to storage some of the material previously ex- hibited there. The cases needed were obtained by moving some from Hall 67. These additions necessitated an entire reinstallation, which has been completed with very satisfactory results. The collection now includes: Two synoptic cases, three cases of brick clays, two cases of fire and potters’ clays, and one case of china clays. So far as possible, burned briquettes have been prepared of each clay ex- hibited, so that the properties of the burned and raw product may be seen together. In addition, a series of type briquettes has been prepared, showing the effect on appearance, and other properties of the clay, of different contents of lime, iron, etc. About five hundred briquettes have been so prepared during the year for exhibition with the collection. The series of diamond-bearing rocks of Arkan- sas received from Mr. Millar has been installed in Hall 70. This completes this collection quite satisfactorily, as the South African and Brazilian series were already shown here. In Hall 71, the case exteriors have been painted and some needed cleaning and reinstal- lation performed. The collections in Hall 72 of ores of the precious metals and lead have been rearranged so as to conform to a geograph- ical classification, rather than one depending upon the metal in the ore, as heretofore. This seemed desirable for several reasons, one being that many districts have several metals combined in one ore, so that it has been necessary, in order to represent the different metals fully, to multiply the series more than was desirable. Again it has been found that mining districts are better known, as a rule, than their ores, so that ore is most easily looked for by the visitor under the name of the district. Moreover, the relations of ores and ore deposits to each other can generally be most clearly shown by an arrangement accord- ing to districts. Accordingly the collections were rearranged, and the following series are now shown in this hall: One case typical gold ores and placer ores; one case ores from Alaska and British Columbia; one case Washington ores; one case Oregon ores; one case ores from California; three cases ores from Nevada; one case ores from the Black Hills; one case ores from Utah; eleven cases ores from Colorado; two cases of Arizona ores; three cases of New Mexico JAN., 1908. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 139 ores; one case ores of the Appalachians; three cases ores from Mex- ico; four cases ores from Colombia; one case ores from other South American localities; one case ores of Australia; two cases ores of Great Britain; and three cases of European ores. The platinum ores, the metallurgical collections, and the large specimens occupy- ing centre and special wall cases, have not been essentially changed. One case, transferred from Hall 67, has been added to those of the hall, and a number of the cases have been repainted. Of the relief maps, Halls 76 and 77, thirteen additional ones have been encased in glass, making twenty-eight in all which are now thus protected. One map has been repainted and several retouched. A series of photo- graphic enlargements, twenty in number, 17 by 20 inches in size, illustrating typical geological or geographical features, has also been mounted upon a swinging stand in Hall 76. Including these, a total of sixty-seven relief maps, seven ordinary maps, and twenty-five framed photographs is at present exhibited in these halls, making an exhibit which, besides attracting the attention of visitors in general, is used extensively for detailed study by classes from the public schools and other institutions. The collections in Hall 78 have been somewhat rearranged, and completely labeled. At present they number as follows: Three cases of abrasives, two cases of phosphates, two cases of mica, two cases of asbestos, one case of sulphur, one case of gypsum, one case of borax, four cases of salts of the alkalies and alkaline earths, two cases of processes and two miscellaneous cases. For the present, only temporary cases, collected from various sources, are available for exhibiting these collections, but it is hoped shortly to replace them with more attractive ones. To the Depart- mental office and library, as already noted, several of the wall cases formerly in use in Hall 66 were transferred. These cases, with some alterations, have been made to serve as book cases. The additional space thus provided has been filled by the transference of a considerable number of books of a geological nature from the general library stack room, thus relieving the pressure on the latter. About 230 lineal feet of shelving, all under glass, have thus been added to the Departmental library during the year, and the total amount of shelving now available for books in this library is 650 lineal feet. A total of 4,500 books and pamphlets is at present kept in this library. The works are chiefly serials, reports of Government and State surveys obtained by exchange, the private library donated by Director Skiff, and a series of separates and mineralogical books purchased from Mr. Kunz. Provision 140 FrELD MusEum oF NATURAL History — REportTs, Vot. III. of suitable accommodations for an increasing number of maps and atlases was obtained by constructing a map case 2 by 2 by 5 feet in dimension, with ro sliding shelves. This has also been placed in the Department library. A case of drawers, also constructed for the office, provides storage for labels, minor supplies, etc. The capacity of the storage room proper was increased by the provision of about 120 feet of plank shelving. In the paleontological labora- tory, a gratifying amount of material was cleaned from the matrix and made ready for installation. The material so prepared was as follows: A complete skeleton of Promerycocherus, two complete skulls and a number of partial skeletons of individuals of the same genus; complete skulls of Merycocherus, Hyracodon and Leptau- chenia; incomplete skulls of Amphicyon, Procamelus and Hyenondon and an almost complete skeleton of an undetermined carnivore. In addition, the material in storage was carefully gone over, and all field packages which showed signs of having become loosened were replastered. This was especially necessary for packages which had been shipped from the field encased only in paste, as had sometimes been required by the exigencies of field work. The work on the Illinois birds and eggs has been pushed and with the exception of several special groups, isalmost completed. Over 200 birds have been prepared for exhibition, and the mounted collections in Halls 25 and 26 have been rearranged. A new idea in exhibiting fishes has been developed, a case designed, and the glass tanks to be utilized therein ordered from abroad, and which are expected within a short time. This installation is looked forward to with much interest, being somewhat of a change from previous methods. One of the illustrations of this report presents the latest experimental stage of this departure. In the Division of Entomology, the butterflies have been transferred and relabeled. During the year 680 skulls have been cleaned and returned to the study collection, and 16 ligamentary skeletons have been cleaned and mounted. In the Department of Botany, during the year, all of the originai exposed installation in the galleries of the South Court, and a part of that in those of the West Court, have been taken down, and the specimens cleaned and readjusted for installation in new cases. New case installation has been accomplished as follows: To the Grass Family has been added a half case illustrating the use of a large number of gramineous roots and fibers; a full case illustrating the Oats of the world, and another the Sorghums, Millets, and various odd “WIXX “Id ‘SLYOd ay _ "SALVLS GSLINAQ AHL JO SIvOD 69 TIVH “AYOLSIH IWYNLVYN 40 WNASNW G13l4 a cae & Sie am = ba Peas A Rik f ti en erodemn, ielicne djiw path. ma a ae Sioa B Patra FR Moet HALL 69.

I4I food grains; another the Ryes and Barleys, and several of the cases formerly installed have been substantially augmented in species and in interest. To the cases representing the Palm Family, a half case has been added, exemplifying further utilizations of the Cocoanut Palm, and a half case of further specimens of various fruits, including an interesting Date series. A case comprising the Hat Palm, Pondweed, Rush, Calla, and Pineapple families is now in its systematic place. To the Banana family has been added a half case, illustrating by “hands”’ and ropes, the principal Manila fibers. Another case, in- eluding the Yam, Iris, Pepper, Orchid, Canna and Arrowroot fami- lies, has been installed in association with the related Ginger family. An interesting series, exemplying the uses of plants of the Willow, the Australian Oak, the Myrtle and the Birch families, has been added, together with a half case in further exemplification of the Oaks. A case of plants and products of the Poppy and Mustard families, the Smartweeds and the Wormseeds is now installed. Fur- ther material has been added to the Nettle family, and the Elms and Proteads have been installed in this relationship. The Clove family is now initiated by a very complete series of the various woods, oils and kinos of Eucalyptus, occupying an entire case. An- other case and a half have been included with those illustrating the Bean family. The Laurel family has been augmented to com- prise a complete case, and the Sumach family extended with the Cyrillas, the Bittersweets and the Maples, to fill another. The Cho- colate and Silk Cotton families are now well exemplified in an inter- esting complete case devoted to their products.

The two large divisions and the two smaller in the upper left-hand corner contain mounted specimens, the others alcoholic, and all, so far as possible, are given their life colors. The alcoholic specimens are fastened to glass plates set edgewise in their respective boxes. The back of each division, whether it contains mounted or alcoholic material, is a transparency to which light is furnished through the top of the case, and which, with the addition of accessories, gives to each division an aquarium effect. This is considered simply a somewhat advanced experimentation. : sP x nee.

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, 1908. From a physical point of view the condition of the Museum, while in detail showing a continued advance along those lines involving the better protection and more careful arrangement of the material on exhibition and in storage within the building, denotes little alteration except in two particulars: the increased number of new exhibition cases in all Departments, and the extension of the exhibition area into the East Annex. The new cases, approximating $26,000 in cost, make their best impression in the Botanical Gallery, and the very capable work that has been performed in transferring and rearrang- ing the exhibition material gives an entirely new value to it. The East Annex contained for several years the Transportation collection received from exhibitors at the Columbian Exposition. The reduc- tion of the scope of the Institution and the removal of these, there- fore, inappropriate exhibits, vacated about twenty halls and courts, and until this year that section of the building has been closed to the public and used for storage and assembling purposes. The pressure for floor space became so acute, however, that at the beginning of this year a large part of the Annex was refloored and repaired, and turned over to the Department of Anthropology, and this area now contains Philippine, South Pacific, and African collections. A serious, and it may be said rather expensive effort has been made during the year to improve the appearance of the exterior of the building, but at this date it is a regrettable fact that the North side of the building — the ‘‘weather’’ side — gives little evidence of the undertaking. Mr. Akeley of the Museum staff devised a machine which, with compressed air, applied liquid stucco to the exterior surface. At first, and for several months, the result seemed undenia- bly successful both in holding to the plaster and in preserving a uniform -color, but the lifeless plaster, the decayed fibre of the staff, would not hold the hardened liquid, and while the general appearance of the 219 220 FIELD Museum oF NATURAL History — Reports, VOL. III. building is much improved, it now seems that nothing can be done to protect or conceal the decomposing plaster and staff with which the brick walls of the building are covered. During the year the Curator of the Department of Anthropology concluded an extended survey of the Far East and the Southern Pacific in furtherance of the plans of the Museum to extend the active operations of that Department into those fields. Further reference to this tour, and to the movements of the other Curators and other field work will be made elsewhere. While the general subject of accessions will be considered in a subsequent part of the report, reference should specially be made of the acquisition by purchase of the well-known Strecker butterfly and moth collection, numbering 50,000 specimens, and including the notes and working library of the collector. There has been but one change in the scientific staff. Dr. Arthur B. Lewis has been appointed Assistant Curator of African and Melanesian Ethnology during the year. The faithful performance of the forces of the Museum will be found reflected in the more detailed report following. MAINTENANCE.— The Budget authorized by the Board of Trustees provided the sum of $171,640 for the maintenance of the Museum for the year. The amount expended was $147,510, leaving a satisfactory margin of $24,130. In addition to this amount $43,000 was expended by special authority of the Board of Trustees for collections, ex- peditions, and exhibition cases, bringing the total expenditure for the year to approximately $200,000. The amount allowed for maintenance for the year shows an increase over the previous year. This is ac- counted for by the addition of several new members to the working force and extraordinary repairs to the Museum building. Lecture Course.— The usual two series of lectures have been given during the year, illustrated in each case and covering an unusual range of interesting subjects. The seating capacity of the hall in which the lectures are given has been taxed to its utmost on every occasion, in several instances the hall being filled and the doors closed thirty minutes before the announced time of the lecture. Following is the twenty-eighth Lecture Course, with the subjects and lectures delivered during the months of March and April, 1908: March 7.—‘‘The Wilderness of Florida.” Prof. C. B. Cory, Curator of Zodlogy. JAN., 1909. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 227 March 14.—‘‘ Mt.

Meek, Assistant Curator of Zodlogy. | April 25.—‘‘ Archeological Studies on the Coast of Ecuador.” Prof. Marshall H. Saville, American Museum of Natural History. The following is the T wenty-ninth Lecture Course, delivered during the months of October and November, 1908: Oct. 3.—‘Through the Cataracts of the Nile.” Prof. James H. Breasted, The University of Chicago. Wer 1o.— A Naturalist in Venezuela.” Dr. N. Dearborn, Assistant Cyrator of Ornithology.

It is gratifying to report excellent progress in the Library; more books purchased, a larger exchange list, better conditions for work, and consequent better service to the Museum staff and to the public generally. The effort to secure some of the older literature of anthro- pology and botany is being continued and important works, difficult to obtain, have been added. For the Department of Anthropology there has been purchased a number of works on Africa and the Pacific Islands. On account of changes in the map it was necessary to reclassify the literature already in the library relating to these localities. For the Department of Botany a number of out of print- works have been secured. Among the more valuable additions are the following works: Boott, Illustrations of the genus Carex; Hooker, Exotic Flora; Hum- boldt & Bonpland, Voyage — sixieme partie, botanique; Seeman, The botany of the voyage of H. M.S. Herald; Sloane, Catalogue plantarum quas in insula Jamaica sponte provenient; Vahl, Eclogie Americane. The largest single acquisition received during the year.was that ob-- tained with the Strecker collection of moths and butterflies, which was received, however, too late to be catalogued. This accession consists of 318 volumes and 947 pamphlets, and contains a number of rare entomological works which are valuable both historically and scientifically. A preliminary examination shows that there are a number of duplicates, which will be valuable for exchange material. With the purchase of the Proceedings and: Transactions of the important entomological societies of this country the entomological library has been considerably strengthened. Through the courtesy of Mr. Kiralfy, Commissioner-General of the Franco-British Exhibi- tion, London, the library received a collection of 89 catalogues and reports of the Franco-British Exhibition. The Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., forwarded 195 publications of the U. S. Geological Survey that fill many gaps in the files of its publications in the general library. Krom the Board of Education, South Ken- sington, London, was received 29 volumes of miscellaneous publi- cations. The Botanical Garden of Buitenzorg, Java, sent 57 volumes. Dr. John Coulter of the University of Chicago presented 25 botanical manuscripts; and Miss Alice Bache Gould of Boston an original edi- tion of the Flora de Filipinas. The list of periodicals and serials re- ceived by gift and exchange from contemporary institutions, both domestic and foreign, increases in number and value from year to year. During the year 984 volumes and pamphlets were bound.

Sycamore figs require to be cut open at the frees end to allow of the escape of small flies, born within, before the fruits can become sweet and edible; even then they are only eaten, in Egypt, by the poor who caprify them for the purpose. The sycamore was symbolical of the “‘tree of life” in Egyptian cult. “Zacchaeus .... he ran before; and climbed ‘up inte a sycamore tree to see him”. Luke xix, 4. 3 “But it was a herdman, and gatherer of sycamore fruit”. Amos vii, 14. “He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with frost”.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 225 has added greatly to the convenience of the staff, also the purchase of substantial, practically dust-proof pamphlet boxes that preserve material that is valuable for reference but not sufficiently so to war- rant individual binding. By miscellaneous gifts and exchange a number of duplicates have accumulated. An attempt is being made to systematize their disposal by sale or exchange. The progress of the work is necessarily slow as the regular work of.the office consumes the time of the staff almost entirely. During the year two duplicate sets of World’s Fair, £893, literature were presented, one to St. Louis - Public Library and one to the John Crerar Library. Monthly in- stallments of the John Crerar Library card catalogue have been re- ceived, alphabetically arranged, and filed. 11,600 cards have been written and distributed in the various catalogues. DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELLING.— Owing to the absence of certain members of the staff of the Department of Anthro- pology less cataloguing has been done during the year than usually. several important collections, however, have been catalogued, notably the collections acquired last year from certain islands of the South Pacific Ocean. About 1,200 catalogue cards were written during the year and entered in the inventory books, which now number 31. In addition there has been prepared certain classified tribal lists and a card catalogue has been prepared for the same. Individual labels have been written for specimens collected among the tribes of North- ern Luzon on the first Robert F. Cummings’ Philippine Expedition. A large number of specimens of the Higinbotham Corean Collection have also been labeled. Labels, copy of which was prepared by Dr. Newcombe during his connection with the Museum, have been printed, and added to the collections from the North Pacific coast, as rapidly as they were received from the printer. Over 50 cases: have been provided with case labels and numbers. | The cataloguing of incoming material in the Department of Botany has been kept up to date, all specimens entering into the organ- ized collections having been properly and completely recorded. The total number of entries for the year in the 49 volumes of the Depart- ment is 17,980, making the total number of entries in the Department 237,780. A card catalogue of the lay names of plants and their economics has been commenced; this catalogue now contains about 10,500 references. In addition to this a card catalogue of the Depart- ment Library has been completed to date; this catalogue now con- tains some 4,100 cards. 226 FiELD MuszuM or NATURAL History — Reports, VoL. III. The Curator of Geology reports, the most important work of labelling has been that of the systematic rock collection, Hall 66, the relief maps, Halls 76 and 77, and the gem collection in Higin- botham Hall. For the rock collection two kinds of labels were pre- pared, one showing for each specimen the kind of rock and locality, and the other descriptive labels of rock varieties. Eight hundred and seventy individual labels and seventy-four descriptive labels were thus prepared for these collections and installed. The labels made for the relief maps were descriptive in character and designed to indi- cate the most important geographic and topographic features illus- trated by the maps. Sixteen such labels were prepared and installed. For the gem collection in Higinbotham Hall, labels were prepared which are uniform in tone with the mounting of the collection and avoid the scattered effect and loss of exhibition space which the loose labels hitherto employed involved. These individual labels corre- spond in size with the tablets upon which the specimens are mounted, and are printed on transparent paper. Each is fastened firmly over and upon the corresponding tablet. These labels show the name, locality, and in many cases the weight of the specimens exhibited. Six hundred and six such labels were prepared and affixed. In addi- tion twenty-three labels descriptive of the different important varieties of gems were printed on transparent paper and mounted on white cardboard. In size they are 4x6 or 6x6 inches, Dhey ware placed in the cases adjacent to the corresponding gems. Five hundred and seven labels have been made and installed for new or hitherto unlabelled specimens in the systematic mineral collection; three hundred and fourteen labels have been similarly made and placed for economic specimens and one hundred and thirty-eight for paleon- tological specimens. In addition copy has been prepared for four hundred and eighty-one individual and fourteen descriptive labels for the marble and building-stone collections, and one hundred and twenty labels for the paleontological collections. All specimens received have been numbered and catalogued, with the exception of such vertebrate fossils as have not been removed from the matrix. These are given field numbers only until cleaned, when permanent numbers are assigned them. In addition about fifty cards have been written for the catalogue of vertebrate fossils. The inventory books show the largest number of specimens for the year to have been recorded in invertebrate paleontology, the number in this section being 5,624. The total number of entries in all divisions is 6,074. JAN., 1909. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. DDG) In order that the total number of entries may show the total number of specimens rather than as heretofore the total of the serial numbers of the inventory books, the number of specimens has been computed. The enumeration gives 98,979 as the total number of entries to date. In the Department of Zodlogy the cataloguing of specimens has continued as usual, and the various collections received during the year have been properly inventoried and labelled, with the exception of the Entomological collections, to which more than 5,o00 specimens have been added. Printed labels have been prepared and installed from time to time as new groups of animals have been completed and placed on exhibition.

The collections secured by Dr. Berthold Laufer are especially noteworthy. Of great interest also are the collections made by Mr. Cole in the Philippine Islands of Luzon and Palawan, as a result of the second Robert F. Cummings’ Philippine Expedition. Mr. Ayer placed the Museum under further obligations by securing interesting archeological material of great value and importance from Egypt and Italy. Of especial interest are the two Mastaba tombs of the Fifth Dynasty, several Etruscan sarcophagi, and objects of bronze from Bosco Reali. The Department of Botany has been fortunate in securing dur- ing the past year the Florida herbarium of Professor A. S. Hitchcock, consisting of a little over 7,000 specimens, most of which are from Florida, but containing also a few important individual sets of plants from the Bahamas and the West Indies. The principal collectors represented are: J. H. Barnhardt, A. C. Bedorsha, A. W. Bitting, pees Maton, H: FP. Henshall, A’ S. Hitchcock, C. G: Lloyd, L.

To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History: inavemutce noon te present, a tfepors or the Operations of the Museum for the year ending December 31, 1909. iniprniewextension On iiSascienvinic: 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 1909. 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 1n Guatemala, Pais New Gutmea, Bermuda, Miji 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- 331 332 Frretp Museum or NatTurRAL History — Reports, VoL. III. ° vision made Has resulted in a noticeable improvement in the physical appearance of the exhibition halls throughout the building, more especially in the Departments of Botany and Geology, which now present as near an appearance of completeness as it is desirable or possible for an active Museum to attain. In the publications of the Museum for the year, Curator Cory’s “Birds of Illinois and Wisconsin”’ has attracted much favorable and gratifying criticism, while the descriptive catalogue, by Prof. Tarbell, of the collection of reproductions of the bronzes in the Naples Museum, selected by Mr. Edward E. Ayer, constitutes by general consent a valuable contribution to the literature of classical archeology. The murder of Dr. William Jones of the Department of An- thropology, while on an expedition for the Museum among the Ilongots of the Philippine Islands, was a shock to his associates in the Museum, no greater, however, than it was to his compeers and to student ethnologists throughout the world. Dr. Jones was a young man of the very best attainments in his chosen field, whose death came while performing service fully as patriotic and high in purpose as that actuating any man whose career has had a tragic close. The Museum has just learned of the intended) erumaiias Assistant Curator 5. C. Simms, who visited the scene of Dr. Jones’ last work and has secured the material and notes gathered by him and caused a suitable monument, funds for which were privately provided, to be erected at the spot where the body of Dr. Jones was buried. The Trustees have caused a bronze memorial tablet designed by Theodore Lescher to be cast for insertion in the wall surrounding the Philippine collection in the Museum. The engagement of Curator Dorsey to prepare a series of articles on the ethnology and sociology of the Old World for publication in the Chicago Tribune, while depriving the Museum for a time of the important service of a much valued member of the scientific staff, is nevertheless so closely allied with the purposes and possibilities of the Department of Anthropology, that the arrangement might be said to enlargeitsscope. The letters thus far published have attracted wide attention and there can be no doubt of the importance of this contribution to the knowledge of those concerned in the sociologic conditions of the world and those specially interested in the rapidly changing intellectual and moral averages of the United States by reason of the introduction into its body politic of the peoples under- going the capable scrutiny of Dr. Dorsey. Among other changes in the staff is the acceptance by Mr. Wilfred H. Osgood of an appoint- FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY. REPORTS, PLATE XLV. The Late Doctor William JAN., IQIo. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. Bae ment to the Assistant Curatorship of Mammalogy and Ornithology. Mr. Osgood brings to the Department of Zodlogy an established reputation of high order. Heisa 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 posons 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 (Sefor 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 Ewe World's Pair 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. 334 Fietp Museum or NaturaL History — Reports, Vot. III. Maintenance.— 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 was $145,512, leaving a balance within the anticipated expense for the year of $28,778. In addition to the cost of maintenance, sums were expended for collections and new installation, expeditions, etc., 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 individual contributions has-also been disbursed for special collections and expeditions. Lecture CourseE.— The Spring and Autumn Lecture Courses, comprising course number thirty in March and April and course number thirty-one in October and November, seventeen lectures in all, had the same gratifying attendance that has now become the custom. There have been few lectures when the demands for ad- mission have not exceeded the capacity of the hall) amd )intmemeace has the attendance been unsatisfactory.
