But our yiew of the situation ia not so Joyful; in fact the Biological Survey is decidedly blue orer the outlook. We have had no increase of appropriation for four years, and meanWiile have steadily grown. We are greatly handicapped in our inoculaticm experiments and in the game protection work, and are so short of money that it has been necessary to cut down field work more than half. At the same tiae we have been forced by a ruling of the Treasury Department to pay inspectors fees at 'the various ports of entry, from Boston to San FranciacOy in order to keep out the Mongoose and other pests that threaten our agricultural interests. Pron top to bottom our men are underpaid, receiving not more than three qnartera the pay of corresponding positions in other Bureaus of our own Department. We had no fear of not being reinstated. But we needed more nonoy; and the Senate, aware of the attack on us, gave us an increase of $13,700 without a diasenting voice. The House would have done the sane; but in the Conference Wadsworth and Scott had the whip hand and cut us down to the old figure. With kindest regards and appreciative thanks for your continui intereat in us, Tory truly yours. ""afjS Hon.

You are very good to keep sending me these new books, and I an very glad to see them for several reasons, not least of which is the certainty that they are doing goo* in popularizing science and attractii^ people to the joys of Nature. But Britten's Trees is a dreadful thing to handle-and it has two indexes; Kellog's Insects is better, and a mighty useful volume. Both are aiaa-^Toirtirg in the lack of precision as to the geographic ranges of the species. Knowlton's Birds will be a good book, and Stejneger's Rep- tiles may be depended on as one of the best of the series. The crowning glory, Merriam's Mampals, is progressing sloiy. Material is constantly accumulating, and from weekto week little drib- lets are written, but the time necessary for really pitching in and doing the Job has not yet arrived-owing mainly to the increased pres- sure of official work and the illness and absence last winter of two of my principal assistants. However, let us pray for better luck ahead. With best wishes, and many thanke for the books.

Uni*r, Doubltday, Plage & Co. Itf dear Ifr Lanior: Haiur ihaadca for your kind letter of the 9th inst^ lAiich com yeattrday, along with the returned Indian atoriea and illnatra- tiona. I am not at all eurpriaed at your deciaion» as I loiov that booka of this kind hare only a liaited sale. Bat ahat yoo 4ay. about a book for diildren intareata m» par- tieularly, for aver ainee I began to eollaet theae Indian atoriaa I hacra been i^praaaed by litmt aeeaied to aa the availability of Mm of that for clioldren'a uaa. Beaidea, I hare often told thw at gatharinga of young pabple, idio hare unifomly reoaiTod th«a vith entfauaiaaM. But mr idea vaa a little different froai yours. I wanted first to ptibliah the actual ^rtha as told by the Indians, to put the Matter on record ani secure eopyri^^t. I than intended to work up the beat atories for ohildren with a Tiew to their publioa^ tion aeparataly, in small bdoka in big type, with lots of telliiig illuatrationa. The preaent book conprises only the sQrths of a single stock. I hare plenty of others -requally good, sone better— from other acta of trfb< To ay barbaric nind oany of theae stories are eqxia of Orion, and as good as the sTon^e in Arabian Hi^^ts. Tory truly yours, 1919 16th Street, Wash ingtoti Septerrber i:\ 1908, Mr Henry Htlt, Henry Holt and Co., New York City. My dear Mr Holt: . . You like eurprlBee, sp I'm sending you one by exprep.Bo I have called it MYSTERIES OF THE FOREWORLD— but this may be improved. This line of goods, so far as I am aware, is not of your eaekiri^, but I am sending it at a venture and if not wanted it can be promptly returned. In case you are in the mood for reading some Indian views of the Universe, please first rtad the first five or six pagiBs of the Introduc- tion, in order to get the point of view necessary for a clear under- standing of the n?yths. With the manuscript are twelve paintings--10 by Deming and 2 by Hittell — all made expressly for these stories. Photographs of the pa in tings, with the l^ends on their backs, are in a small envelope with the manuscript. Most of them, as you will see, are much inferior to the originals. In the envelope with these photographs are a few others, of places mentioned in the text. But there is a serious question as to the desirability of using photographs at all in a book of this kind, as they tend to awaken the reader from the mystic atmosphere of the tales —an atmosphere with which most of the paintings are in har«cny. The stories abound in illustrative material and I shall be glad to have a few more paintings made. If, as I strongly suspect, you do not care for the took, kindly return to me by exprens, charges collect, addressed to me at 1919 16th Street, Washington, D.C. Very truly yours. 1 saa COSVliiJ'^S OF A C.'U.IFO.-TiA IV^lfC' CER^?.-!--' 'r« i.»\-. 00.* w*!!'-' . » i Li -v Ai- , Vfc .

Ui I 1919 Sixteenth Street, Washington, D.C, Oct. 4, 1908, Dear Dr. Kroeber: Pardon my delay in replying to your letter about the uie of the name Garilan. The preseure of official work that has kept me horo all siuaner has alec put ae far behind in my personal correepondence. In speaking of the bird used in the Eagle Cerenony you say that you have for some i^iiM bami convinced that the Indiana would, either frcm choice or necessity, use also the condor and perhaps large hawks.* In this opinion I cannot agree with you, and for three reasons: 1. Indians everywhere, so far as I know them, are most punctilious in the use of tiie proper ceremonial animal or thing, and unwilling to ac- cept substitutes. 2. During t>he several years in which I have worked in Southern Calif- ornia, all the Luiseno and Diegueno Indians with i^om I have talked on the subject agree that the Golden Eagle and no other bird ie u«ed in the Eagle CereiKmy. 3. The Luismo, Diegumo, and other Southern California tribes have distinctive names for the Golden Eagle, Bald Eagle, Condor, Turkey-Buz- sard. Raven, the laiige ^buezard*hawks, and so on, and ni^er^coc^fuse one with another. As to Boscano: In view of the date at which, ^e.^srrote, and the . • * - additional fact that he was a laniard, it seams per^ctly certain that he mat have been ibolly unfamiliar with the Ehglish name "^rke^/ Buzzard; ^ c C: and that his translator was entirely correct in using the uprd 'buzzgrd' for the larger hawks.

The valuation as given on the previous tax bill was $39,370 and was increased by the new a&sessment by adding 300 per front foot. The frontage being 19.30 feet, the additional valuation appears to be $5,790, which added to the previous valuation of $79,370 seercs to give a total of $45, 150 instead of $47,000 as on the now tax bill.

Clark Co., Cleveland, Ohio. j)ftar Rir: Youra of the lOt'i inst, enclosing ppi7-44 of t;ie nawn of the World, and galley of the Bibliography, I found on returning from office this evening. The changes in the Bibliography appear to have been made by sotMone utterly unfamiliar with bibliographies and the nmal form of citations. Much as I dislike the use of quos for titles, and the loose narrative fonc in which the references have been ar^-anged, I an? willing to swallow these if this is the kind of thing you like, but I ao! not willing under any circucstances to ^^ive a titlo o * ref- erence without the date. The date of publication, next toithe authors nase, is by far the most important part of any reference. I have added titles of two papers which have luKt appeared thus bringing the bibliography down to the end of December 1909. Herewith I am returning galley and copy of the Bibliogr?!- phy, and the page proof reed, today (pp 17-41), Proof of the preliminary matter and Preface I have not yet seen, and the corrected galley for tlie pages enclosed has not vet come. Please always send corrected galley with page proof. The general make up of the pages I like ver-; nrich. ^fev t>*'jl.v yours, ~j». •, \ 1 235 1919 16th Street W:i8hin^ton The Arthur H. Clark Co. Jan. 13. 1910 Cleveland, Ohio. i Dear Sire: ^ In the pa/5:e proof received and returned last evening the running headline for even pages is the title of the ook--The Davm of the World. Do vqu like this? Would it not look better to use tecifintuXvliLfi. for the even page headlines, ard a catch-title of each story for the odd page headlineB--a8, How Ah-ha^le Stole the Sun(for pp 39^3)? Proofs of the three colored illustratione alpo reached me last evening and on the whole strike ire as excellent for process work, although as the originals have not .vet a-riv^Kl I arr unable to make the neceuBiiry corcparisons. 'fhe green and Uis in the rriddle picture (Recital of the Myths) seem >*ather bi-i^ht. These pict jres surely will add materially to the attractiveness of the book. Proofs of the uncolored illustrations have not vet arrived When the illustrations are rrinted I shall be obli/red if you will kindly send me half a doz^r yiatc. ^f ' t ♦ w «» ^«-« o 1 /I D 1919 16th Street Waehir^on The Arthur H.

Clark, Pres 1919 16th Street WafihirvtonJJ.C. Jan. 17,1910 My dear Sir: Your letter of the 15th received this afternoon. I did not return the colored illuetratiorF. for the reason that the originalB were not eent and I had nothing: but rrv imagina- tion to compare them with. Ab the tsme condition prevailp at the present time I am still not returning them. I am willing however to accept your statement that tliey are as good as can be obtained and let them fco at that. In fact. I think them very pood. In the case of plain black and whi*e reproductions from paintings, very good tone values can be obtained by the use of iso- chromatic plates with a proper color B^reon. The bibliography I returned several hours ago, after ad- ding the place of publication, as suggested by you. The Mer>*icV took carre also and will be used when copying. the index. Pages 152 to 197 reached me this afternoon and are retur- ned herewith. You are riishing me fearfully with this proof as in almost ever:; instance the date you set for its return receipt by you is the day following its receipt by me(and always ir the afternoon). So I have to rush through it and take it down 'o t>ia rost officn(2 ^ miles) in the late evening and send bv special deliverv. However I am willing to do all I possibly can to help hurrv it throup:h. The trouble with chapter headings which I spoke of '^.^ester day recurs in present batch on pages 169, 17:^, 179, 191, and 195.

M. Rou#rtson The Arthur H. Ciark Co. Dear Sir: Since writinfc you last evenirv^ I have noticed one or two thinf^B in the proof which could be chari#?ed to advant:)f;e. On pa^e 210 the Deer is spelt Qo-e-yah — as p-iven by one of t]ie Northern Mewuk b?mds. It should be changed to IrWQp-yali to a^ee with the spelling adopted in all other cases. On page 220 two pieces of bracketed matter come together looking very badly. This can be easily remedied b^' rernovin/r the brackets fro© the last paragraph and introducing tlie paT^a^raph with the word NOTE— in saree fonc as on pages 5.*^ and 55. Tlie only bad page in the .\ncient Myths is 59, which has a long footnote and a gap in the aiddle. This could be rernedied by resetting the footnote as a Kote--in same form as on 53 and 55. In case you see fit to do this, the present footnote number (9) could be preserved by introducing a short footnote, as follows: The l-eado v- lark, wherever mentioned in the myths, ie alv/ays a disarreeaole zhiir- acter (see pages 55-56; L51-132; 215-214).

Respectfully, ^ •■ '? Of*^ 1919 --16th Street Washington, 'D.C. April 3,1910. Dear Seton: At odd tiwes for four jpOTn^ha I hive been reading your Life Histories of Northern i!;imr.alB and ]i."'£. only ^ r,t finished it. I had hoped to do this long ago, but you have -ritten in infemttlly big book and my tiite, as you know, is not wy o-m. During the reading I have experienced all Korts of erro'iona — froii! the greatest pleasure to quite tlia rev-irsn; beside* I have derived cor.riderable arnusen-ent, and not a few additioRR to my stock of knowledge. You make sowe excellent generalisations— as -A\en you say (p 3n) •the environicent is the creator of the .-^riml, the uould in which each species was casf; bat you sometimes forget to explain-as '.Yhen you add, 'therefore n* two can have exactly the saire envivounent: liMxy ae.ooiated species have the same distri.utio c c. environment, as you of course know full well. Were it not so there would be no Life Zones and no Faunal Areas. . Again (p 27) you assert that -.he habit of storing food is so general mom the higher anirmls t.hat it it probably co^.o- to Al except the Homed Ruziiinants* Then you have ,. whole lot to say, both in the introduction and at intervals tlirotvchout ^he book, about monogomy, polyg^ury, the Ten Coninandir.ents, ?ico, Cria-e. Suicide, a^^d so on. It seeir-s a pitv to bl^rieh 60 g©aw a hQ^k. with sucn twaddle. On pa/?;8 7d you say "the enjoyment of tiie Pack-rat in its pile of glitterin^t^ baubleo if- founded. » .on the love of t:ie beautiful". When vou '^rote this you evidently did not .stop to think that the Wood -rat "^ it'vr.'s itr^ pile o'^ njbbish, not to look at or adiT'ire, but to protect it ^rort itB enerries. On wliat ^^round do you a3h:ert that the circle-trotting of the Elk (described on p n?) "haa obvious relation either to the sexual inotiii" t or to hygiene"? Equally Burpriem^ ie the sta^^ernent (p 54) that the White-tail •ir the most successful of all our Deer* accoicpayiied by the asBuinption that it "is the least polyrai^ous". And are you no"-, pushirxi^ a good thin-^ pre^.tv far when you claiir (p 56) tiiat a cold or an attack of indi^^^.s^-io?: ir reflected in the growing antlers of the Elk?.

Dear Up Pickett: Your letter of the 24th inat has luet an-ived. I an! Burprised to learn that you no'u ctand for a imterial differonce in the valxjes of the two halves of the Chapel Street store property, for in your letter of March 14 last you 8aid:"''.liil*» the Trow- bridge buildit^ is BOB?evirhat larger I think I could arrange eo that tho total wight be equally divided. If you are willing *o b«11 for *.5B,D00 or better I think I could cloee the sale at once." In a later letter written the oaire day you said: 'At tho bank they consider the Chapel street land there worth $?!,500 a 'ront foot. That would make tho Hoadley land alone worth ever $57,509 and tlio build- ing would cost to duplicate hout $10,000. And it is well known about here that property valuatiorx are ir.croasing." ''ou close with tho ro- narkiM do not believe any offer lesb than $125,000 should bo conpidere-i for the two buildings at the present tine." Very truly yours. i n K-: 1 i^t; 34 ^ t OS Pi 5 -2.

S. Marloir, Mariager, Potomac Electric Power Co. Washington, D.C. Dear Sir: Referring to your latter of tha 11th Instant, concerning your bill of $11.60 for electric current at niy houBe, 1919 - 16th Street, frcm July 16. 1912, to JanuaiyU, 1913, would state that check for this atflounl ie inclosed herewith under protest. The bill is prepostoi ou«= It is absurd to assume that any av!ch current has beon consumed durine- the period mentioned. Our hou^e was cicBoa and locked up on August 6, as I wrote you at the time. Ojx family Je ft Vaahington for Caii/ornia on that date, jind T personally turned off the current frca the house at the li switch in the basement. Ift-s. Merrisan, who returned in advance of me, did not reach the city until Deosmbsr 15, and did not turn on the current until Deceabor IQ, Tha current used therefore covered the two periods fran July le to August 6, the chaise for which would have been about $1 (the bill for the previous month having been $1.58. and half of our farnily being already aheent). and frm December 18 to January 14. the change for wMch could hardly have been $6. The bill rendered therefore seems to be about $5 in excess, and vould seem to inipiy eithar that the meter readings h«l' 4 \ ^ E. S. MarJoR- 2 been doubled, or that a charge of $1 par south had been made during oxir abeencec "iou nay raaa.nber tliat aaveral years ago, .vhan a similarly exorbitant bill was ronderud, I went to the trouble of ascertaining aiactly how ra^ch current was ^^zQt m the house, and after several months you reralered a corrected bill with the explanation that owing to an error as to the kind of meter used, the amount had boan doubled. Yom- Bu^estlon that we take ip the matter with ^le Bureau of Standards ■^ithcit iri'oni:at:: on as to previcua v-i-Airmz of the mater is a-wsing.
