ANNUAESREPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 
nIAG. 


To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History: 

I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the Mu- 
seum for the year ending December 31, 1910. . 

Under the proper heading and subheading following, the affairs 
of the Museum are considered and commented upon in detail, from 
which will be drawn many gratifying evidences of the steady develop- 
ment of the Museum and of the increase of its usefulness as an agency 
for popular education and for the acquisition and dissemination of 
scientific knowledge. Its field of operation has been greatly extended 
during the past year, especially in the Department of Anthropology, 
although all of the Departments have shared in the general outward 
movement. The death of Mr. Edwin Walker, who had been a most 
serviceable member of the Board of Trustees since its organization, 
must be chronicled. At a meeting of the Board held October roth 
the following was recorded: 

“The closing of the life of Edwin Walker, after a protracted and 
suffering illness, removes from this Board one of its oldest members, 
whose constant services, especially in matters involving legal ques- 
tions, have been of very great value to the Institution. 

“Upon the larger interests of Chicago, in which community he had 
lived and occupied a conspicuous station for many years, and to whose 
welfare he was patriotically devoted, the death of Mr. Walker entails 
the loss of another of those strong men to whose wise, forceful, purpose- 
ful character Chicago owes its great progress and high place as a 


municipality. We feel it a most grateful privilege to express our ad- 
miration for him as a fellow citizen and as a friend.” 


During the year two members of the scientific staff have died: Mr. 
John Farwell Ferry, of the Division of Ornithology, and Mr. Charles 
S. Wake, cataloguer and bibliographer in the Department of Anthro- 
pology. Mr. Ferry was a young man of much promise and of great 
enthusiasm, and his associates and others in similar work keenly 
regret the close of the creditable career that undoubtedly awaited this 
young scientist. Mr. Wake was well advanced in years and a gentle- 
man of unusual culture. He performed services of much value to 
science, but of a character not calculated to attract public attention.

6  Fretp Museum or NaturaL History — Reports, VoL. IV. 


It cannot be out of place in this report to mention the lamentable 
sudden death of Mr. Theodore Lescher, who had been for several years 
intimately associated with the staff of the Museum in preparing the 
plans for the interior arrangement of the new Museum building. A 
man of rare accomplishments, fine sensibilities, and scrupulous conduct, 
the sudden ending of his life, full of the promises of high station in his 
profession, is deplored. The conclusion, for the present at least, of 
the expedition of Dr. Berthold Laufer to China and Tibet in the interest 
of the Department of Anthropology, and under the support of the fund 
provided by Mrs. T. B. Blackstone, is worthy of special mention in view 
of the brilliant results that rewarded the three years of researches con- 
ducted by its accomplished chief. The amount of material, but, what 
is of greater importance, its character, places the Museum in the first 
rank among those institutions that have entered this difficult and fasci- 
nating territory. It is hoped that a large part of the collections will be 
on view within a few months, and that in the meantime, a number of 
valuable contributions to the knowledge of Tibet and China reflected 
by these collections and their capable study will be made by Dr. Laufer, 
who has accepted the permanent appointment of Associate Curator 
of the Division of Asiatic Ethnology on the staff of the Museum. While 
referred to elsewhere, special mention should be made of the generous 
donations of Mr. Joseph N. Field for prosecuting ethnological investi- 
gations in the South Pacific Islands; the contribution of the Standard 
Oil Company in both funds and matertal for the reinstallation of Petro- 
leum Hall; and further donation from Mr. Stanley McCormick for 
the extension of the investigations of the Hopi Indians. The members 
of the Board of Trustees of the Museum have individually made a 
number of contributions of money to the Institution during the year. 
Extensive repairs and improvements have been made in and about the 
Museum building during 1910. The entire exterior of the structure 
has been whitewashed and the roof and subordinate foundations, 
entrances, etc., have been repaired and strengthened in accordance 
with the recommendations of the Architects, D. H. Burnham & Com- 
pany. An iron fence has been erected around the building to protect 
the public walking in the park near the walls from possible falling 
plaster from the cornice, resulting from constant deterioration. The 
city telephone service has been extended both for Departmental and 
public use within the building, and the laboratories and work rooms 
as well as a number of the exhibition halls have been rearranged and 
repainted, refloored, etc. One of the most important additions to the 
facilities of the working force of the Museum has been the renting 


JAN., IgII. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 7 


of botanical and geological laboratories and work rooms in a building 
on Jefferson Avenue, a short distance from the Museum. This is a 
well lighted and a well ventilated suite of rooms in a new brick building, 
and is a very gratifying relief from the dark, cramped, and generally 
unfit quarters that were provided in the Museum building. In these 
new quarters the Department of Botany is now engaged with a most 
competent force in preparing artificial plants, flowers, and fruits -for 
the exhibition series, a number of which have already been placed on 
view and elicit unusual appreciative comment on the part of both the 
public and students. The close of the year finds a number of important 
expeditions in the field. Dr. Lewis in British New Guinea; -Mr. Cole 
in the Philippines, whence he will go to Borneo; Dr. Osgood and his 
assistant in Venezuela; Dr. Meek in the Panama Canal Zone; Dr. 
Millspaugh in the Bahamas, and Mr. Smith in Oregon. In addition 
to these, expeditions are contemplated for botanical investigations 
and collections in the Tropics of the Pacific and in the Far East; for 
collections and reproductions among the Hopi; for investigations of 
the Potawatomi Indians and of the Mound Builders, and for ornith- 
ological collecting and sketching on the Island of Laysan. From all 
of which it is apparent that as satisfactory as the results of the 
closing year have been in all Departments, the coming year is equally 
promising. 

MaintenaNce.— The budget approved by the Board of Trustees 
provided the sum of $178,320 for the expenses of the Museum for the 
year. The amount expended for maintenance was $145,330, leaving 
the satisfactory margin of $32,990. In addition to this amount $49,800 
was expended by special authority of the Board for collections, expe- 
ditions, and exhibition cases, which brought the total to $195,130. 
A further sum of $20,865 was subscribed by friends of the Museum for 
special expeditions, material, and new installations. 

Lecture Courses.— Two courses were given as usual, in the Autumn 
and Spring, bringing the number of courses given by the Museum 
to thirty-three. The attendance at these lectures has been steadily 
good, and the increase in the attendance of students and teachers has 
been observed with much satisfaction. The ready co-operation of 
well-known scientific men and lecturers in this work is gratifying, and 
occasion is here taken to thank the different gentlemen who partici- 
pated in the courses. 

Following is the Thirty-second Free Illustrated Lecture Course, 
with the subjects and lecturers, delivered during the months of March

The additions for the year were 2,926 books and pamphlets — 334 
by purchase and 2,592 by gift and exchange. The purchase of books, 
having been limited to a portion of such works as were urgently 
needed, was less than the previous year by 682 books. The acces- 
sions were largely confined to gifts from friends of the Museum 
and exchanges from kindred institutions. The most notable gift of 
the year was received through the generosity of Mr. W. J. Chalmers 
and Mr. Byron L. Smith, who presented to the Museum the Head 
collection of fossils that included also a very complete set of mono- 
graphs on fossil sponges that are almost priceless because of their rarity; 
partial sets of geological survey reports and transactions that are val- 
uable in filling in and completing sets in the library, and a number of 
duplicates that will be useful as exchange material. Other valuable 
gifts were received from the following: Mr. Eric Boman, Paris, An- 
tiquités de la region andine, 2 volumes; Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Cramer, 
Chicago, Audubon’s Birds of America, 7 volumes, 1840-44; Mr. Clar- 
ence B. Moore, Philadelphia, Antiquities of the St. Francis, White and 
Black rivers, Arkansas; Mr. Martin A. Ryerson, Chicago, Carnegie 
Institution of Washington Publications, 7 volumes; Messrs. Marshall 
H. Saville and George E. Heye, New York City, Contributions to 
South America Archeology, 2 volumes; Mr. E. Thurston, Madras,

The list of accessions will also show gifts that are useful additions 
to the library. The work of correcting duplicate call numbers and 
cataloguing accessions received in the early years of the library was - 
continued during the year. There were sent to and returned from the 
Newberry Bindery 876 books, periodicals, and publications of learned 
societies. For the several card catalogues 19,662 cards were written 
and filed. Twelve installments of the John Crerar Library cards were 
received, but were only partly distributed owing to the crowded con- 
dition of the card cabinets. The two units or sections of the steel 
cabinet received in the beginning of the year have proven entirely 
satisfactory. A sufficient number of cards had accumulated, however, 
to more than fill these sections before they were received. 

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING.— The Curator of 
Anthropology reports 1,625 catalogue cards written and recorded in the 
Department inventory, numbering 33 volumes. The most important 
collections catalogued have been those from the Banawi and Igorot 
tribes, secured by S. C. Simms on the 4th R. F. Cummings Philippine 
Expedition; the Iongot collection (partially) from Northeastern Luzon, 
made by the late Dr. William Jones; and the Etrurian archeology col- 
lected by Mr. E. E. Ayer. The classified tribal lists have been added 
to, and the card catalogue for the same has been kept up. The work 
of labeling has gone on at about the same pace as during 1909, 3,755 
standard black labels of various sizes were printed for the Department, 
of which 2,030 were for Northwest Coast Halls, 1,575 for the East Court, 
85 for the Egyptian Hall, and 66 for California Hall. 

The cataloguing of the specimens received in the Department of 
Botany has been kept up to date. The entry books of the Department 
number 56, in these 297,810 specimens have so far been catalogued, 
29,589 of which were entered during the past year. The cataloguing 
of herbarium specimens progressed satisfactorily throughout the year. 
' Besides organizing the current accessions the Wahlstedt herbarium, 
consisting of 17,555 specimens, has been completed; 2,025 sheets have 
been added from the Rothrock herbarium, and 5,250 from that of the 
University of Chicago. About 3,000 cards have been written and 
added to the indices of the Department and the index books of the 
collections kept up to date. 


14 Fretp Museum oF Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


Owing to the large number of specimens received during the year 
it has not been possible for the Department of Geology, as has usually 
been the case, to complete within the year the cataloguing of all speci- 
mens received. Nevertheless, a considerable portion of the work has 
been done. To the card catalogue of the Department Library cards 
have been added during the year corresponding in number to addi- 
tional books received. The number of cards thus added is 516, making 
the present total of the Departmental Library catalogue cards, 2,332. 
To the Department photograph albums 128 prints, chiefly obtained by 
the Museum expedition to Utah, have been received, making a total 
of 2,500 prints now in these albums. A considerable amount of labor 
has been performed by the Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Pale- 
ontology in the direction of completion of records by identifying speci- 
mens of invertebrate fossils previously catalogued but not identified. 
About a thousand specimens of Tennessee fossil sponges and about one 
hundred species contained in the Logan collection of Cretaceous fossils 
have thus been identified and recorded. The principal work of labeling 
has been that of the collections in Hall 67, marbles and building stones, 
and Hall 70, coals and hydrocarbons. These collections have been 
labeled throughout, the number of labels prepared and installed being 
about four hundred for each hall. A number of these were large, 
descriptive labels. Complete framed labels, twenty-eight in number, 
were provided for the large specimens on bases in Hall 60. About sixty 
labels have been printed and installed in Hall 68, clays and sands, and 
for the remainder of the collection hand-written labels to the number 
of about five hundred have been provided, so that use may be made of 
the collection until printed labels are completed. Other miscellaneous 
labels for the economic collections to the number of about sixty have 
been printed, and about one hundred and fifty paleontological labels 
chiefly for the fossil sponges of the Head collection. The total number 
of printed label forms provided and distributed during the year was, 
therefore, about one thousand. Copy for four hundred and seventy- 
five labels was in addition prepared and has been placed in the hands 
of the printer. 

Cataloguing and labeling of specimens in the Department of Zodl- 
ogy has been attended to so far as time and pressure of other business 
would permit, but it has been only possible to do little more than keep 
pace with new accessions in this work. Approximately 1,300 catalogue 
entries have been made, including 660 in Mammalogy, 600 in Ornith- 
ology, and 40 in Odlogy. Of the specimens thus catalogued, the mam- 
mals have been recorded in the systematic card catalogue.

Accessions.—Most of the accessions acquired during the year by the 
Department of Anthropology were gifts. Through Mr. R. F. Cummings 
more than 4,000 ethnological specimens from Igorot and Ilongot tribes 
of Northern Luzon, the Negrito of Bataan and the Bukidnon and 
Bagobo of Mindanao, were added to the Philippine collections. Full 
notes, photographs, and measurements accompany the collections. Mr. 
Barbour Lathrop, of Chicago, presented a magnificent royal sarong col- 
lected by himself in Jokjokartar, Java. Mr. T. A. Hagerty donated a 
bronze figurine of the Goddess Isis; Mr. E. E. Ayer, an Etruscan jar. 
A collection of spears, arrows, knives, etc., from Congo and the Soudan; 
Etruscan burial urns of terra cotta and alabaster, as well as vases of 
terra cotta, and gold and silver jewelry from Kabyle tribes of Algeria, 
Africa, was presented by Mr. Stanley Field, Mr. Edward E. Ayer, Mr. 
Watson F. Blair, Mr. George Manierre, Mr. George F. Porter and 
Mr. Richard T. Crane, Jr. Through Mr. William J. Chalmers and 
Mr. Byron L. Smith, the Illinois archeological material was increased 
by the W. R. Head Collection. Mr. Homer E. Sargent enriched the 
Salish collections by the addition of 75 specimens, collected by J. A. 
Teit. The gift comprises baskets, bags, matting, clothing, cradles, 
necklaces, robes, pipes, toys, spears, stone implements, shields, etc. 
From Dr. Seemeyer of the National Ethnological Museum, Budapest, 
was obtained, by exchange, a lot of photographs illustrating the 
physical types and home life of the different peoples of Hungary. Of 
the purchased accessions of special interest and great value in the 
study of Belgian archzology is the collection of 725 objects purchased 
from Baron Alfred de Lée of Brussels. This collection represents 
material from flint quarries and workshops, casts of objects of the 
Bronze and Iron Ages, pottery of the Belgian-Roman Epoch, and a 
number of originals of the Frank Epoch. Twenty Navaho ceremonial 
masks were secured from J. L. Hubbell of Ganado, Arizona. Museum 
funds in the hands of Alfred R. Brown brought together a collection 


16 Fretp Museum or NATurRAL History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


of ethnological objects from Andaman and Nicobar Islands, which adds 
much value to the previous small collection from these islands. 

The more important collections that have been added to the organized 
herbarium during the year are the following: J. C. Blumer, 356; Broad- 
way, Tobago, 222; W. C. Cusick, Oregon, 187; R. A. Dixon, Texas, 143; 
W. W. Eggleston, Atlantic States, 95; A. D. E. Elmer, Philippine 
Islands, 384; Geological Survey of Canada, Dominion of Canada, 
345; A. A. Heller, Montana, Utah, Nevada, and California, 698; O. E. 
Lansing, Jr., Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan, 128; New York Botanical 
Garden, Florida, Bahamas, and West Indies, 2,529; C. R. Orcutt, 
Mexico, 1,094; Peabody Museum, European Mosses and Lichens, 2,592; 
H. H. Smith, Georgia, 457; H. A. Towne, Washington, 107; University 
of California, Mexico, 526; United States National Museum, Idaho, 
Oregon, Washington, etc., 917. In addition to these accessions there 
have been a large number of smaller ones which appear in the detailed 
list of accessions of this Department. Accessions of economic material 
have been very small; merely a few items of added interest. Additions 
to the organized herbarium during 1g1to arranged by localities are

In the Department of Geology the most important accession by 
gift was that of the Head Collection of fossils. This collection, number- 
ing about eight thousand specimens, was kindly presented by Messrs. 
William J. Chalmers and Byron L. Smith. The collection is especially 
important for its representation of North American Paleozoic sponges, 
of which it is probably the largest and finest collection ever made. 
Besides !arge numbers of Tennessee sponges of Niagara age there is a. 
fine representation of sponges from the Chicago area and of Trenton 
sponges from Dixon, Illinois. Most of these have been obtained from 
localities no longer accessible. Much of this material has never been 
described and will afford new genera and species. Among single spec- 
imens a large one of Astreeospongia showing the star-like structure of 
the skeleton deserves special mention. Additional specimens to the 
number of about three thousand comprised in the collection consist 
chiefly of invertebrate fossils from various localities in the Mississippi 
Valley and include much excellent exhibition material, among which 
may be mentioned a fine slab of Le Grand, Iowa, crinoids and large 
specimens of fossil plants from the Coal Measures. A series of fossil 
insects from the Florissant beds of Colorado gives a representation of this

occurrence hitherto lacking in the Museum collections. An important 
series of books was also obtained with the collection in number about 
three hundred. Especially important are works relating to fossil 
sponges of which a very complete collection was obtained. Other 
books obtanied with the collection were of special value in completing 
sets of Geological Surveys previously possessed only in part. Among 
other gifts of importance the following may be mentioned: A complete - 
series of ores and specimens representing various stages of concentra- 
tion of the copper ores of Bingham Canyon, Utah, donated by the 
Utah Copper Company; a large amethystine twin crystal of calcite from 
Joplin, Missouri, presented by F. P. Graves; a section of the Shrews- 
bury meteorite presented by F. Justice Grugan; three slabs of West- 
field, Massachusetts, verd antique of standard museum size presented 
by the Westfield Marble and Sandstone Company; fifteen specimens of 
sand-barite concretions presented by Prof. C. N. Gould; a series of gold 
and silver ores of the Porcupine and Cobalt districts of Canada, pre- 
sented by Thomas H. Rea; a large slab showing fossil brachiopods and 
worm tubes in relief, presented by A. G. Becker; five specimens of 
polished Smithsonite of gem quality from Mexico, presented by Charles 
H. Beers; and a large map of Colorado presented by U. A. Dohmen. 
By exchange with the British Museum representative sections of the 
Eli Elwah and Uwet meteorites were obtained, and by exchange with 
the University of Bristol, Bristol, England, 121 specimens represent- 
ing 63 species of Paleozoic invertebrate fossils from various localities 
in Great Britain. From Rev. P. E. Nordgren 56 specimens of inver- 
tebrate fossils representing 15 species of Carboniferous and Devonian 
age from localities in Pennsylvania and New York, were also received 
by exchange; from A. G. Becker, 82 specimens representing 15 species of 
Devonian invertebrates; from H. G. Shelby, 12 specimens representing 
3 species of Iowa crinoids; and from Julius Bo6hm a fine specimen of the 
hydrous beryllium borate hambergite from Madagascar, all by exchange. 
The most important purchase was that of the entire mass of the 
Ahumada, Mexico, meteorite. This is a pallasite weighing 116 pounds 
and is the only meteorite of this group which has as yet been found in 
Mexico. An exceptionally fine skull of the Tertiary carnivore Hyzno- 
don, two specimens of gold of unusual beauty and two relief maps, one 
of the Malaspina Glacier region, Alaska, and one of the State of Illinois, 
were also purchased. The Malaspina Glacier map is about 7 feet by 
4 feet 6 inches in dimensions and has the vertical and horizontal scales 
the same. It shows a portion of the lofty St. Elias range with innumer- 
able glaciers extending down the valley to the ocean and bays. Of these 


J

the Malaspina Glacier is the largest known outside the Arctic and 
Antarctic regions. The model also shows fiords, cirques, hanging 
valleys, marginal lakes, coastal plains, medial, terminal and recessional 
moraines, and other features of the region. The map of Illinois is 6 
feet 7 inches by 3 feet 9 inches in size, and the vertical scale is about 
four times the horizontal. The rather low relief of the prairies is shown 
as well as the terminal and recessional moraines of the continental ice 
sheet. In contrast with these are the sharply incised streams and 
gorges of the driftless area in northwestern Illinois and in the extension 
of the Ozark Plateau in the extreme southwestern part of the state. 
Another topographic type is illustrated by the bottom lands of the 
Mississipp1 and Illinois flood plains. The accessions by collection 
include 133 specimens of the rare minerals and feldspars of Maine 
collected by the Curator, 40 specimens skeletons and skulls of fossil 
Tertiary vertebrates collected by the Museum expedition to Utah 
and 2,300 specimens fossils Ordovician and Devonian invertebrates 
collected in Iowa by the Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology. 

The total number of specimens of mammals and birds added to the 
collections is 1,968, of which 1,438 are birds and 530 mammals. A 
large collection of Gorillas and Chimpanzees, secured from J. F. G. 
Umlauft of Hamburg, Germany, forms a very important addition to 
the exhibits of mammals. It consists of seventeen specimens of several 
species and varieties; most of which are accompanied by complete 
mounted skeletons. It is undoubtedly the largest collection of African 
Anthropoids in this country. In the Division of Ichthyology and 
Herpetology the most important addition were 350 fishes from British 
Guiana, received in exchange from the Carnegie Museum, and which 
were collected last year by Dr. C. H. Eigenmann. Dr. Frank Bill- 
ings and Mr. F. G. Hartwell presented a skin of a large saw fish from 
Tampico, Mexico, and Dr. Billings also presented the skin of a Tarpon 
from the same locality. A small but interesting collection of shells 
was received as a gift from Rev. P. E. Nordgren. In the Division of 
Entomology the additions consist of local insects collected by members 
of the staff. ‘ 

EXPEDITIONS AND FiELD WorkK.—In September, Dr. Berthold Laufer 
concluded his labors in China and Tibet under the Blackstone fund with 
collections comprising 10,000 objects. The ethnology of each country, 
supplementing and explaining that of the other, properly arranged, 
will show all phases of thought development and the most important 
features of culture in Eastern Asia. Returning to the Philippines at the 
close of 1909, on the 5th Cummings Expedition, F. C. Cole began work

among the Bukidnon of North Central Mindanao. A collection of more 
than 700 pieces, with photographs, was made from that rapidly chang- 
ing people. Minor collections were secured from neighboring Mandaya 
and Manobo tribes. A representative collection and many photo- 
graphs were obtained from among the Negrito and Bataan. Among 
the Bagobo, dwelling in four districts around Davao Bay, Southern 
Mindanao, a collection of 600 pieces fully illustrating their life was 
made; in addition 12 dozen photographs were taken and measurements 
made of 50 individuals. Collections are now being made among the 
Moro of the great Cotabato Valley. Dr. A. B. Lewis proceeded from 
Huon Gulf, German New Guinea, to Humboldt Bay in August 1909, 
and thence along the coast to Angriffs Hafen, visiting the coast villages 
as well as some toward the interior. Using Eitapé, Berlin Hafen, as 
a base, for a couple of months, the neighboring villages were visited, 
resulting in a collection of 600 specimens with about 80 photographs. 
Going then to Alii Island, Seleo, Angel and Tumleo Islands were 
studied, their inhabitants being pre-eminently manufacturing and 
trading peoples. From Eitapé a trip was made along the coast west- 
ward as far as Aissano, which yielded interesting collections and 
photographs. From Herbertshoéhe, Dr. Lewis went with the govern- 
ment expedition to the south coast of New Britain, visiting en route 
many north coast villages of that island. Landing at Cape Merkus 
(Arawe) two months were spent in visiting native villages along the 
coast, for forty miles in each direction. Returning to Huon Gulf, a 
stop of two weeks was made at Bukaua and neighboring villages. 
Then, via Finsch Hafen, Sattelberg, at an altitude of 3,000 feet, 
among the mountains was visited. Here are Papuan peoples quite dis- 
tinct from the Melanesians of the coast. Photographs were made and 
a small collection secured from the Hube, a cannibal tribe living about 
ioo miles inland. From Friedrich Wilhelms Hafen short excursions 
were made on Siar and Rageta Islands. In May, Potsdam Hafen was 
reached. Native villages and Vulkan Island were visited, after which 
headquarters were established on Hansa Bay near Awar and other 
native towns, forming a group of the highest type of culture to be found 
on the coast of German New Guinea. A month was spent in coast 
villages east and west of Potsdam Hafen. After some time spent in 
various native villages, both on the coast and inland, on August oth, 
the Kaiserin Augusta River was entered on the steamer Siar. Only 
a portion of the eight days spent on the river was given to collecting. 
A study, however, was made of the culture along its banks. After many 
delays, due to various causes, Herbertshoéhe was reached near the end

of the month. September and October were spent in packing collec- 
tions, studying special industries and visiting the Sulka country at 
Mope and the neighborhood of Mt. Varzin. Very rare Sulka and 
Baining masks and other things were obtained. Early in November 
Dr. Lewis left for the British Solomon Islands. He has made a care- 
ful study of the culture of these different regions, Berlin Hafen and 
Huon Gulf in German New Guinea and the southwest coast of New 
Britain, also full collections in those regions, supplemented by many 
photographs. Many scattering specimens have been secured from 
other regions which supplement the fine collections already possessed 
by the Museum. 

The Dendrologist has completed his work in northern Georgia 
bringing in from that field 390 elements toward the North American 
Forestry monographs now preparing for installation. He then pro- 
ceeded to the Pacific Coast where he will continue uninterruptedly in 
the field until he has secured the elements of the species to be repre- 
sented from the region west of the Rocky Mountains. His first carload 
of material from the Coast has already reached the Museum. Together 
with his dendrological work he is making general collections for the 
economic and herbarium series. Roy A. Dixon made a trip to Texas, 
collecting in Walker, Montgomery and Harris counties; he secured 143 
species for the herbarium and 477 duplicates for exchange. O. E. 
Lansing, Jr., continued his local collecting, returning 128 specimens for 
the herbarium and 470 duplicates for exchange. 

During the latter part of the summer, a number of large feldspar 
quarries in Maine were visited by the Curator of the Department of 
Geology for the purpose of securing specimens of the rare minerals 
contained in the pegmatites and a series illustrating the feldspar industry. 
Quarries in Auburn, Poland, Hebron, Norway, Georgetown and Top- 
sham were visited and from nearly all of them valuable material was 
obtained. At Poland the rare good fortune was had of being present 
when one of the most valuable pockets of gem tourmaline ever found 
was opened. The opportunity was improved to collect series of the 
associated minerals and some steps were taken toward securing some 
of the gem material at a later date. Some excellent specimens of 
apatite and of the rare mineral herderite were also obtained at this 
locality. At Georgetown some large specimens of white and yellow 
beryl were collected and at Hebron rare forms of columbite, triphylite, 
and other rare minerals. At all the quarries typical specimens of the 
feldspars and pegmatites mined were obtained and at the adjoining 
mills various grades of the ground product. A striking series of trap 


JAN., IgIt. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 25 


dikes in granite was also collected, one of the slabs being 26 by 14 inches 
in dimensions with a dike three inches in width traversing it. The 
Assistant Curator of Paleontology and party spent about three months 
in northeastern Utah collecting Eocene mammals. Search for spec- 
imens was first made in clay strata near Vernal which had yielded some 
good material earlier to,collectors, but no satisfactory returns were 
obtained by the Museum party. In the adjoining sandstone ledges, 
however, good showings began to be discovered and these were worked 
with excellent success during the remainder of the stay. Moreover the 
fauna proved to be different from that which had been obtained in the 
clays. The horizons worked ranged from the lowest to the upper 
measures of the Uintah formation in a portion of the so-called “‘ Uintah 
desert,’’ lying in the basin of the White River. Most of the fossils 
were found at levels of from 700 to 800 feet above the river. Owing 
to the arid conditions work was difficult and slow, since much time 
had to be consumed in hauling horse-feed and other supplies distances 
of thirty and more miles, and some of the work had to be done from a 
dry camp. Furthermore, owing to the thickness and toughness of some 
of the ledges, considerable drilling and blasting were necessary in order 
to secure specimens. Representative specimens of at least ten Eocene 
vertebrate genera were obtained, belonging mostly to the amblypods 
and titanotheres. Of the amblypods the best specimen obtained was a 
skull nearly three feet in length of the six-horned Eobasileus. This 
skull will make a striking exhibition specimen. Another form of 
which a good representation was obtained was Dolichorhinus. This 
animal seems to have been an aberrant branch of the titanotheres and 
is known only from the Eocene. Its skull is of peculiar and striking form, 
being shaped somewhat like that of the horse but with a cranium nearly 
as long as the face. No considerable part of the skeleton of the animal 
has ever been found before, but from the material collected by the 
Museum party it is probable that two practically complete skeletons 
will be secured. Another interesting find was that of a fine crocodile 
skull about two feet long and a lower jaw of a creodont (early carnivore) 
about sixteen inches long, indicating an animal larger than a polar bear. 
A preliminary list of the material obtained is as follows: Uintatherium, 
two skulls, one pelvis; Eobasileus, one skull; Dolichorhinus, two skele- 
tons, six skulls, three lower jaws; Telmatherium, seven skulls, five 
lower jaws; Palaeosyops, two skulls, two lower jaws; Mesonyx, incom- 
plete skull and jaws; Crocodilus, one large skull; Tillotherium, incom- 
plete skull; unidentified creodont, one lower jaw; unidentified artio- 
dactyls, two incomplete skulls; testudo, three carapaces and plastrons.

None of these genera had hitherto been represented in the Museum 
collections. About seventy-five specimens of modern reptiles were also 
collected and some representative specimens of the gilsonite mined in 
this locality. The Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology spent 
about three weeks in July in northeastern Iowa? collecting Ordovician 
and Devonian fossils. Near Clermont strata of Trenton and Lower, 
Middle, and Upper Maquoketa age afforded representative collections, 
the Trenton fossils being principally gastropods and cephalopods, and 
the Maquoketa brachiopods, trilobites, sponges and worm tubes. Not 
only was the quality of the fossils obtained from these localities partic- 
ularly good for exhibition and study purposes, but also several species 
obtained will doubtless prove to be new. About 1,200 specimens re- 
presenting 80 species were in all obtained from these strata. The 
kind assistance of Dr. Frederick Becker and his son A. G. Becker, both 
in giving information and in taking part in the actual work of collecting 
in this locality, was of much value. In search for Devonian fossils 
localities near Independence, Randalia, West Union, and Fayette were 
visited and desirable material obtained from all of them. Near Indepen- 
dence seven quarries were visited and about 500 specimens secured, 
representing 54 species of brachiopods, corals, etc., and seven spec- 
imens of a rare Devonian sponge. A number of specimens of agates, 
concretions, rocks, and clays were also collected here. The locality near 
Randalia yielded about 500 specimens of brachiopods, representing 15 
or 20 species, and at West Union and Fayette small, representative 
collections were obtained. All the material collected was practically 
new to the Museum collections and some, as has been stated, will 
probably prove to be new to science. 

No important field expeditions were conducted in tg1o by the 
regular members of the Zoélogical staff. Assistant Curator W. H. 
Osgood left early in January for London, England, taking with him 
for study and determination the greater part of the large collection of 
African mammals secured by the Museum African expedition of 1905-6. 
He returned in March having been most courteously received by the 
officials of the British Museum of Natural History and having satis- 
factorily identified the material by comparison with the many types and 
historic specimens in the London institution. Owing to the confused 
and incomplete state of the knowledge of African mammals, especially 
those of small and medium size, and to the almost total lack of spec- 
imens on this side of the Atlantic, this was the only way in which the 
collection could be thoroughly studied and authoritatively named. 
Its value to science and as a standard of reference for future study in 


JAN., Igit. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 27 


this country is thus very greatly increased. The complete report on 
the collection has not yet been published, but two preliminary papers 
have appeared describing one genus and twenty-eight species and 
subspecies of mammals new to science which are contained in the col- 
lection. Several short expeditions for local field work were undertaken 
with successful results. Mr. Osgood spent two weeks in August in 
northern Wisconsin and a few days in northwestern Illinois collecting 
small mammals. 111 specimens were secured. Later, in November, 
through the kindness of Mr. Cyrus H. McCormick, Mr. Osgood spent 
two days at White Deer Lake, near Champion, Michigan, making 
_ photographs and preliminary arrangements for securing material for 
a group of beavers. Mr. C. A. Corwin, artist, and Mr. Julius Friesser, 
taxidermist, spent ten days in July at East Tawas, Michigan, securing 
material for preparing bird groups. Mr. Corwin later spent several 
days at Dowagiac, Michigan, and a week in the vicinity of Yule, North 
Dakota, making sketches and color notes for use in background work. 
In October, L. L. Pray, taxidermist, spent two weeks at Dowagiac,- 
Michigan, securing material for the preparation of groups of small 
mammals. The services of Mr. Henry F. Raven, of Venezuela, were 
secured for six months’ work in Costa Rica and Venezuela as collector 
of mammals and birds.

Chinese and Tibetan ethnology collected by Dr. Laufer. Hall 56 
has for some time past been used for the storage of Asiatic ethnology. 
This material has been installed in 27 standard cases, comprising five 
cases of India, five of Ceylon, two of Siam, two of Burma, seven cases 
of the H. N. Higinbotham Korean Collection, three of Ainu and three 
of Saghalin and Siberian tribes, including the Gilyak, Orochon, Tungus, 
Gold, and other tribes. A number of boats, for a long time in storage 
in the East Annex, coming from the former Department of Transporta- 
tion and various collections, have been placed in their proper places in 
Halls 30, 31, 45, 52, 56, 57 and Alcoves 83 and 84 of the East Court. 
Hall 40, formerly devoted in part to Bontoc Igorot ethnology, is now 
being reinstalled in standard cases, to contain all Igorot collections, most 
of which material was secured by Assistant Curator Simms on the first 
and fourth Cummings Philippine Expeditions. This necessitates the 
removal from this Hall of two cases of Moro ethnology, which will be 
reinstalled with Moro material now being collected by Mr. Cole. Two 
Etruscan jars, gifts of Mr. E. E. Ayer and Mr. C. L. Hutchinson, have 
been placed in Alcove 120, North Court. In Hall 41 the life-size Forge 
Group of five figures, illustrating the manufacture of iron weapons by 
the Tinguian tribe of Philippines, has been completed, also the minature 
Tinguian Village, consisting of houses with many and varied accessories. 
A facsimile of the Papyrus of Ani, the gift of Mr. E. E. Ayer, has been 
installed upon the North Wall of the Egyptian Hall, necessitating the 
placing of the mortuary textiles in frames, still higher. This reproduction, 
nearly 80 feet in length, was carefully mounted upon a backing, in long 
sections, of three-ply veneer, covered with wire netting and papier-maché. 
The frame surrounding the whole was also put up in sections, so that, if 
desired the whole could be removed without damage. In Hall 1,anacorn 
granary from the Coahuilla Reservation in southern California, has been 
installed, upon a platform of poles. The Algerian gold and silver 
jewelry mentioned in the list of gift accessions was temporarily installed 
in two cases on the South Wall of the H. N. Higinbotham Hall. A 
life-size Kwakiutl figure has been modeled and cast, upon which is to 
be shown the large Hamatsa raven mask of a Cannibal Dancer. A 
life-size figure has been modeled and cast for the Samoki pottery maker, 
one of the four groups to be shown ina new case illustrating Philippine 
industries. About 40 small Igorot figures, modeled by J. A. Burt, have 
been cast for better preservation. Mr. Stanley McCormick has made 
provision for the completion of the set of 13 Oraibi altars, the repro- 
duction of which was undertaken several years ago. In addition, two 
or three of the most famous Hopi shrines will be reproduced, as well

as one of their typical springs at which offerings are deposited. In 
addition, manuscript will be prepared for publication, labels, etc. 
For this purpose, the services of H. R. Voth has already been secured, 
and he is now at work upon his notes, drawings, photographs, etc., as 
well as engaged in shaping the various figures needed for the altar 
work. 

In the Department of Botany material for general economic collec- 
tions having been exhausted by the large installations accomplished last 
year, there remained no complete case display to accomplish this year. 

The work upon the installation has, therefore, been that of finish rather 
than that of enlargement. Specimens in 84 cases, installed previous to 
1909, have been readjusted to render their appearance uniform with 
the newer and more satisfactory installations. This required the intro- 
duction of some modern mounts and labels and repainting with the later 
and “‘flatter’’ background and mount color. Further material has been 
added to 7 cases; 3 cases have been completely reinstalled; and 2 
cases installed with new material. Despite many setbacks, caused by - 
delay of the owner of the modeling shop in putting the same in proper 
condition for occupancy, satisfactory results have been obtained. A 
glass blower and a helper were regularly added to the staff. The 
following reproductions and models have been executed and placed on 
exhibition: A life size reproduction of a complete Sweet Potato plant 
showing the tubers; enlarged sectional flowers of the Akee, the Man- 
grove, the Pomegranate, the Sea Grape, the Sour Sop, the Grape Fruit; 
the male and female flowers of the Papaw (Carica) and the male flower 
of the White Birch; a full flowering rachis of the Papaw (Carica) and 
enlarged portions of the male and femalec atkins of the White Birch; 
a branch with leaves and fruits of the Pawpaw (Asimina), ripe and 
sectional fruits of the same; a large sectioned fruit of the Papaw (Carica) 
and a series of five reproductions illustrating the development of the 
fruits of the Mangrove. In addition to these, complete reproductions 
of large branches of Akee, Sea Grape, Pomegranate, Sour Sop, Grape 
Fruit, and Mangrove; a complete summit of a Pawpaw tree and com- 
plete plants of Aloe and Anthurium are ready for assemblage and 
finishing and the elements of all the various studies made by Dr. Dahl- 
gren last year in Jamaica are ready for reproduction. The glass blower 
has reproduced a large number of complete pieces, such as several 
natural sized spikes of the minute flowers of the Sea Grape and the Akee, 
complete clusters of Grape Fruit; Papaw flowers, flowers of the Man- 
grove, Aloe, and Pomegranate; and many hundreds of piece parts of 
plants (for instance, to show the necessities of this work, 1,200 fruits 


30 ©69©Fretp Museum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


of Anthurium; 116 flowers and buds of Aloe in all stages of develop- 
ment; 300 minute stamens of the Pomegranate; 125 enlarged stamens of 
the same; 150 minute ovules of Carica, etc.). 

In Higinbotham Hall some specimens of gems and gold have been 
installed and a spring button operating outside the case has been pro- 
vided for one of the specimens of chalcedony containing liquid. In 
Hall 35 a representative series of the sponges of the Head Collection 
has been installed. The specimens exhibited occupy one wall case. 
For the most part the specimens are mounted on standard black board 
tablets, but species possessed in an especially large number are shown 
massed. Species especially well represented are several of Astylospongia, 
Hindia sphaeroidalis and Palaeomanon cratera. Among Trenton 
sponges the genus Zittelella is well represented. Polished sections of a 
number of sponges with lenses mounted before them in order that the 
beautiful interior structure may be better seen also form a part of the 
exhibit. In Hall 36 some of the most striking specimens of the Bur- 
lington crinoids obtained 1n the Fultz collection have been installed in 
a floor case. The specimens have been, for the most part, mounted 
on tablets, about eighty of which are in use, and a typical exhibit of 
these beautiful forms has thus been obtained. Anotherchangein this Hall 
has been to move the miscellaneous Triceratops bones to a case adjacent 
to the skull. In order to obtain room for the exhibition of the increasing 
number of Tertiary fossil mammals obtained in successive Museum 
expeditions, a complete readjustment of the wall cases in Halls 36 and 
59 has been made and the specimens in them rearranged. As now 
arranged an entire case is devoted to the White River vertebrate fossils, 
and two cases to Loup Fork vertebrate fossils. Among the important 
specimens of Loup Fork age placed on exhibition here for the first 
time are a complete skeleton of Promerycochaerus obtained by the 
expedition of 1906 in Nebraska, and a skeleton of the Miocene camel- 
giraffe Oxydactylus longipes obtained at the same time in Wyoming. 
The Promerycochaerus skeleton is fully articulated and mounted stand- 
ing; that of Oxydactylus has not been articulated and is exhibited 
in a prone position. The Promerycochaerus skeleton is one of few 
mounted ones in existence. The animal was a member of the 
Oreodont group, of which it was one of the last and largest representa- 
tives. The whole group became extinct before Pliocene time. In 
Hall 60 a number of specimens representing extinct whales and dugongs 
of Florida have been placed on exhibition. In Hall 61 the position of the 
Glyptodon mount has been changed so that a broader passageway is 
secured. In Hall 62 the Ahumada meteorite and some smaller spec- 


WAN, 1911. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 31 


imens have been placed on exhibition. The large map in this Hall, show- 
ing places of meteorite falls in the United States, has also been brought 
up to date by the addition of all recent falls. New specimens have 
here and there been added, with some rearrangement, in Halls 63 and 
64. In Hall 65 the collection of sand-barite concretions received from 
Prof. Gould has been added to the concretional series and the series 
is now as a whole perhaps the largest and most complete to be seen in 
any museum. Some small fulgurites have also been mounted and added 
to the collection of fulgurites in this Hall and some large cave spec- 
imens not previously exhibited have been placed on exhibition. In 
Hall 66 a considerable rearrangement of the specimens in the wall cases 
has been made in order to permit the introduction of new material, the 
most important of which is the series of trap dikes in granite obtained 
by the Curator in Maine. Additional marble slabs received during 
the year have been installed in Hall 67, and a number of new labels, 
some of them descriptive, placed with the corresponding specimens. 
Each important series of marble in this Hall is now provided with a - 
fully descriptive group label. From Hall 69 the entire series of speci- 
mens was removed, the cases and specimens cleaned, and the specimens 
reinstalled. This work will continue to be necessary at intervals in 
this Hall until dust-proof cases are provided. In Hall 70 the metal trays 
containing specimens in the form of powders or lumps have been removed, 
painted to a color uniform with the interior of the cases, and reinstalled. 
The appearance of the collection as a whole has thus been improved. 
Labels have also been installed with the collection throughout, the 
standard label holder being used. Hall 71, devoted to petroleum and 
its products, has been entirely dismantled preparatory to a complete 
recasing of the collection. Funds for this purpose have been generously 
provided by the Standard Oil Company and the construction of the 
cases is under way. Before reinstallation a complete renovation of the 
Hall will be made. The principal addition to the installation in Hal 
72 has been that of a working model of a twenty-stamp gold mill, which 
was constructed in the Department after designs made by the Assistant 
Curator. The model is four feet six inches long, three feet six inches 
high, and eight inches deep. It is placed in a wall case on the west 
wall of the Hall. It represents a section of a gold mill with the house 
in skeleton. Running from a mine not represented is an elevated tram- 
way upon which an ore car is shown. At the end of the tramway is a 
grizzly or screen with its pile of ore, followed by a crusher of the Blake 
type modeled in wood, and an ore bin of standard type. This bin is 
provided with a glass front which permits a view of the crushed ore 


32 FreLp Museum oF NatTurat History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


within. From the bin two chutes lead to the two ten-stamp mills 
which are the prominent features of the model. Each mill, exclusive 
of its concrete foundation, is one foot high and ten inches long. Each 
consists of a heavy oak framework which supports ten steel stamps 
working upon steel anvils in a wooden mortar equipped with copper 
screens. The shaft, cams, and tappets are all of steel while the boxes 
in which the journals run are, like those of the full-sized mills, of cast 
iron. The flywheel, which is of wood, is driven from a main driving shaft 
by a leather belt. In one mill the screens in front of the mortar are 
shown removed to permit a view of the interior. In front of the mill 
are shown amalgamated copper plates andalaunder. The entire model 
has been built according to the plans and specifications of a standard 
mill and has been modified only in such ways as the small size has 
made necessary, or as changes were required in. the relative positions 
of the parts in order to place the model within the space available. 
The mill has been so constructed that if power were available, it could 
be run daily without injury, and with a few inexpensive alterations it 
could be rendered capable of actually treating ore. Another model 
constructed in the Department and installed in a floor case in this 
Hall represents a Hartz jig of standard type. Owing to the scarcity of 
space the model was made upon a small scale, although the details of 
its structure are complete. The height of the model is six inches, 
length eight inches, and width four and one-half inches. It is built of 
wood except the shafting, wheels and eccentrics, which are of steel. 
The jig is represented as treating a low-grade silver ore, taking the 
ground ore and yielding three products, gold ore, silver ore, and waste. 
Like the ten-stamp model this jig is a working model which upon the 
application of power could be run continuously. In fact the ore beds 
shown with the model were made by the operation of the model itself. 
Maps of Colorado and Nevada showing the localities and names of the 
gold and silver mining districts of those states were prepared by the 
Assistant Curator and placed upon the walls of the Hall adjacent to the 
corresponding collections. The work is intended to be continued until 
all the important mining localities shall be represented. In Halls 76 
and 77 the large maps of the Grand Canyon, Eureka Basin, and Auvergne 
have been framed, and the large photograph of Miles Glacier presented 
by L. V. Kenkel has been framed and placed on exhibition. There 
have also been framed and installed in Hall 77 the recently purchased 
maps of Illinois and the Malaspina Glacier. It was found that the screws 
used to hold the case sashes in place in Skiff Hall were working loose owing 
to the wear of the wood. Accordingly metal sockets were provided for 


JAN., Igri. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 33 


all the sash screws and in place of screws of ordinary type the sash were 
all fitted with bronzed screws with an interrupted slot of the standard 
Museum pattern. Both the appearance and safety of the cases have 
been much improved by this change. In the same Hall considerable 
rearrangement of the collections has also been made in order to permit 
the introduction of new material. This material consisted chiefly of 
series of the rare earths which are coming into increased notice and for 
which inquiries are often made by visitors. In order to secure the 
space needed, considerable selection was made among the iron ores, 
_ especially those of Lake Superior, so that those of essentially similar 
appearance might be represented by the smallest possible number of 
specimens. It was thus found possible to reduce the space which this 
collection occupied without lessening the educational value of the 
series. In the readjustment selection was also made so that the series 
illustrating the lesser metals, such as mercury, tin, aluminum, nickel, 
cobalt, etc., should indicate as nearly as possible by their extent the 
relative importance of these metals. Thus the symmetry of the collec-: 
tions has been much improved and space gained for addition of new 
material. These changes have, however, been restricted to specimens 
in the wall cases along the south and southeast walls. In one of the floor 
cases the group of specimens presented by the Utah Copper Company 
has been installed, space having been secured by the withdrawal of some 
of the specimens of Lake Superior copper. The new material consists 
of two large specimens illustrating oxidized and sulphide ore and a 
series of crushed specimens representing the several stages by which a 
rich concentrate is obtained from the original low-grade material A 
large specimen of martite from Utah has been installed in a floor 
case, supplementing other large specimens of iron ores. Supplementing 
this exhibit a series of models illustrating the modern blast furnace and 
its evolution is in preparation for exhibition in this Hall. The discon- 
tinuance of chemical work in the Museum building having been deemed 
advisable, the portion of Hall 75 previously used as a chemical lab- 
oratory has been dismantled and the hood, desks, and apparatus pre- 
viously in use there have been removed to a building on Jefferson 
Avenue where partial accommodations have been secured. In the ab- 
sence of sufficient accommodations the Executive Council of Armour 
Institute very generously placed the facilities of the chemical lab- 
oratories of that institution at the disposal of the Department and an 
appreciated use has from time to time been made of these facilities. In 
the paleontological laboratory the following vertebrate material has 
been prepared during the year: One skull of Brontotherium ramosum 


34 Fretp Museum or NaturaL History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


_ prepared and mounted, one skeleton of Promerycochaerus mounted 
and installed, one skeleton of Oligobunis, one skull and lower jaw of 
Hyaenodon horridus, one skull and lower jaw of Merycoidodon gracilis, 
two skulls and lower jaws of Leptauchenia, and one skull and lower jaw of 
Telmatherium prepared for exhibition and numerous specimens prepared 
for identification. The fossil vertebrate material in storage has been 
thoroughly overhauled and the wrappings of many of the specimens 
poisoned to enhance their preservation. About one thousand feet of 
new storage shelving have been erected and the specimens placed upon 
it in order of their field numbers. Thus the frequent moving of the 
specimens which has been necessary hitherto when any particular 
specimen was desired, and which was more or less destructive to the 
specimens, will be largely avoided. Of invertebrate fossils about one 
thousand specimens collected in Wilmington, Illinois, have been 
cleaned and identified in the laboratory during the year, and some other 
preparatory work of the same nature has been done. 

The storage collections of both birds and mammals have received 
thorough disinfections and the exhibits of mammals, especially the 
large groups, have also been treated with insecticide. Considerable 
scattered material consisting of undressed hides of large mammals and 
rough skins of smaller mammals remain to be cared for, but the great 
mass of it has been cleared away and it seems probable that the one man 
now left for this work will be able to keep abreast of it. During the year, 
the entire serial collection of birds on exhibition have been overhauled. 
These specimens were in temporary cases, not dustproof, and in the 
course of time had become soiled and dusty. All of them have been 
thoroughly cleaned and such as needed it have been remounted and 
installed in new cases. Early in the year the first results of the Stanley 
Field Ornithology Fund were installed and placed on exhibition in the 
West Court of the Museum. They consist of four large groups of North 
American birds in one large case divided into four sections, each with a 
large painted background and reproduction of foliage, soil, rocks, and 
natural conditions in which birds live. The groups are as follows: 
(1) the California Condor, showing two adult birds, one standing near 
its nest in a recess of a cliff and the other with wings at full spread 
about to alight. Scene in the mountains of southern California. (2) 
The American White Pelican, showing several adult birds with their 
nests and eggs, together with other species, such as Cormorants, which 
breed with them, and characteristic surroundings on a sandy islet in 
a Saskatchewan lake. (3) The Wild Turkey, four adult birds in the 
heavy woods of northern Louisiana. The season represented is autumn 


HAN. TOIT. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. a5 


and the richly tinted foliage combines well with the black and bronze 
of the birds. (4) The Water Birds of Quill Lake, Saskatchewan, includ- 
ing 37 birds of various species, as the Canada Goose, Pintail Duck, 
Blue-winged Teal, Scaup Duck; Widgeon, Gulls, Terns, and Shore 
birds. About too birds for the serial North American and Illinois 
collections have been mounted and placed on exhibition. Room 22, 
which contains the exhibition collection of fishes has been improved 
by several changes and additions of new groups. Four cases not well 
suited for the exhibition of fishes have been transferred to the Hall 
devoted to Osteology. Two new cases have been added, containing 
15 groups of mounted fishes. Screens have been made for two other 
cases and these are ready to be put in place and installed as soon as 
the material now in course of preparation is finished. During the first 
half of the year attention was devoted to experimenting to devise the 
best method for preparing groups of fishes for exhibition, with most 
satisfactory results. Unfortunately work on several groups of fishes 
was temporarily discontinued last July, due to the illness of the fish 
taxidermist, Mr. Heim, who was obliged to seek a different climate, 
but who is now doing work for the Museum in Arizona and it is hoped 
he will be able to return to Chicago in the near future. Of the several 
groups placed on exhibition the largest and in many ways the most 
exceptional is that of the Tiger Shark with her brood of 44 young. 
This animal is viviparous and the adult was captured at a time when 
the young were about to be born. The group is probably unique. Dur- 
ing the past year the inventory of the great Strecker collection was com- 
pleted and considerable time was devoted to work on local insects, 
such as pinning, labeling, and distributing specimens already in the 
collection and others secured from time to time by the Assistant Curator 
and his assistant. 2,800 insects have been pinned and labeled. A large 
number have been determined and placed in the study collection. 
During the year the work in the Division of Osteology was continued 
as usual with satisfactory results. Through the courtesy of Mr. William 
Warwick, Superintendent of the Standard Oil Company plant at Whit- 
ing, Indiana, the facilities for work there were continued, and 38 skel- 
etons and skulls were degreased during the summer. The Assistant 
Curator made some experiments in working out a satisfactory method 
of exhibiting specimens without shelves, and a paper was written and 
read before the meeting of the American Association of Museums at 
Buffalo, New York, May 31, 1910, on this subject. Mr. Gueret also 
completed the labeling of specimens and card index of Osteological 
material to date.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 
1911. 


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, 1911. j 

In one respect the year just closed must be considered the most 
important in the history of the Institution by reason of the action of 
the Board of Trustees accepting a site for the new Museum building 
in Jackson Park, tendered by the South Park Commissioners. This 
clearly complies with the terms of Mr. Field’s will and secures a site 
without cost to the Museum within six years following the date of his 
decease. The location provided and accepted immediately north of 
the present building,—highly desirable in every way and determined _ 
upon after careful consideration had been given to other sites suggested 
in various parts of the city,—was designated at a special meeting of the 
Board, held March 22, 1911; and a contract was thereupon executed 
between the South Park Commissioners and Field Museum of Natural 
History. The plans for the new building, including every detail of the 
interior arrangements, have been completed and approved by all par- 
ties in interest and the actual specifications for the contracts fully 
drawn up and approved. So far, then, as the executive staff of the 
Institution is concerned, its work on the new building is complete; 
the results of six years’ consideration and study have been given 
final shape and expression. 

The activities of the Museum have been maintained in all directions. 
Several important expeditions were in the field at the date of the last 
report and several additional explorations have been inaugurated dur- 
ing the year. Among these the Meek Panama expedition and the 
Osgood Venezuelan expedition may be referred to as promising im- 
portant data and material. The return of Dr. Berthold Laufer from 
the Far East after an absence of over three years in the interests of 
the Mrs. T. B. Blackstone Fund, bringing over 10,000 specimens of 
Tibetan and Chinese ethnology, was a significant event in the year. 
Dr. Laufer at present is preparing this magnificent collection for 
installation, and the publication by him in the Museum series of a 
work on Jade is but one of the notable results of this expedition. 
The Curator of Botany left in August for an expedition and survey 
of the Northern Tropics and the Far East.

The movement for the extension of libraries and museums, univer- 
sities and other institutions of learning founded for the use of citizens 
of Chicago was heartily supported by the Board of Trustees. The 
intention of this movement is to bring the educational activities of 
the city to the attention of the people of Chicago and to avoid as far 
as possible duplication of effort. 

The announcement late in December of Mr. Norman W. Harris’ 
important contribution of $250,000 for the extension of the work of 
the Museum into the public schools of Chicago was greeted by the 
press and people of the city with marked concert of congratulation. 
The plans for carrying out Mr. Harris’ wishes have not as yet been 
more than outlined, but the project is receiving the careful deliberation 
of the director, the curators of the Museum and the officials of the 
Board of Education. It will take several months to arrive at even a 
tentative working plan. This rare donation to the cause of education 
and public welfare will give life and light to the routine of the schools, 
instill love of nature in the scholars, make for good citizenship and 
constantly increase the friends and frequenters of the Museum. It 
is a wise, far-reaching and perpetual benefaction. 

An important addition to the fire protection equipment was the 
installation of the reinforcing fire pump and the purchase of a number 
of wheeled fire extinguishers with a capacity ranging from 25 to 4o 
gallons. Two additional firemen were also added to the force. 

The present state of the building calls for no special comment 
except that persistent effort is made to keep it in as safe a condition 
as circumstances will allow. 

Maintenance.— The sum of $175,480.00 was appropriated by the 
Board of Trustees for the necessary expenses of maintenance during 
the fiscal year, and it is a matter of congratulation to report that the 
amount expended for this purpose was $149,127.00, leaving the satis- 
factory margin of $26,353.00. This is especially noteworthy, as numer- 
ous additions were made during the year to the force of departmental 
assistants. The actual amount expended, however, was $195,780. 
The difference between this amount and the cost of maintenance is 
accounted for by special appropriations for cases, expeditions and 
collections purchased. 

starr.— The Staff has been augmented by the appointment of Dr. 
B. E. Dahlgren as Assistant Curator, Division of Economic Botany, 
and the appointment of Huron H. Smith as Assistant Curator, Division 
of Dendrology. The death of Jesse E. Burt, who was attached to the 
Department of Anthropology as modeler and sculptor, has to be 
recorded. Mr. Burt for along period rendered conscientious, efficient

and interestingly instructive work in the construction of life-size and 
miniature ethnic groups. 

Lecture Course.— The Spring and Autumn lecture courses are still 
given in Fullerton Memorial Hall by arrangement with the Trustees 
of the Art Institute, and it is encouraging to be able to state that the 
capacity of the hall was taxed at almost every lecture.

Lisrary.— The number of books and pamphlets in the Library is 
now 55,870, which represents an addition during the year of 2,306 books 
and pamphlets, distributed as follows:

This increase represents growth mainly by exchange of the Museum’s 
publications, exchange having been made with 674 institutions. There 
are outstanding orders for some 54 works selected from catalogues of 
second-hand book dealers. It is gratifying to be able to state that a 
number of the older works have been secured which were needed in the 
Departmental Libraries. There are in the Library at the present time 
requisitions for several thousand dollars worth of books. These repre- 
sent the accumulation of several years. Some were ordered, but it 
was impossible to secure them, as they were out-of-print works and 
were sold by the time the orders reached the dealers. No single large 
collection has been received either by gift or purchase. Mr. J. Pierpont 
Morgan presented a beautifully bound and superbly illustrated copy of 
his Catalogue of the Morgan Collection of Porcelains. This work is 
highly appreciated, as 1t 1s supplementary to the Museum’s collection 
of a number of rare types of Chinese porcelains secured by the Mrs. 
T. B. Blackstone Expedition conducted by Dr. Berthold Laufer. The 
Catalogue of the Burlington Fine Arts Club and Bushell’s Chinese 
Porcelain, 16th Century, colored illustrations, which were secured by 
purchase, further interpret this collection. Through the courtesy of 
the Smithsonian Institution the Museum received 13 volumes on the 
scientific results of the Harriman Alaskan Expedition of 1899. Further 
issues of this valuable work will be received as published by the In- 
stitution. A list of all accessions is appended to this report. 

There were deducted from the total number of volumes some 700 
titles of Exposition Literature. With the consent of the donors, this 
library was presented to the Chicago Public Library, where it will be

kept intact. The current work of classifying, labeling, accessioning 
and cataloguing the publications as they were received has continued 
without interruption. There have been written and added to the cata- 
logue 14,014 cards. Monthly installments of The John Crerar Library 
Catalogue cards have been received and filed. Two additional. units 
of the metal card cabinets were purchased to accommodate the growth 
of the catalogue. There have been received from the Newberry Li- 
brary Bindery 879 petiodicals and publications. The office of the 
Library has been thoroughly cleaned and redecorated and the stack 
room thoroughly dusted. Advantage was taken of the opportunity to 
borrow from the Department of Geology, for temporary use, one of 
the large exhibition cases. This was placed in the stack room and 
filled with books seldom used. This disposition temporarily relieves 
the crowded condition of the shelves in the stack room. The physical 
condition of the stack room and the Departmental Libraries cannot 
be improved in the present building. The Library, depending as it 
must to a large extent upon the larger libraries of the city for many 
of the rare and expensive books, takes pleasure again in acknowledging: 
the courtesies extended by these institutions. 

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LaBELING.— The Depart- 
ment of Anthropology reports that 3,250 catalogue cards were written 
and entered in the departmental inventory, which now number 34 
volumes. The most important collections catalogued and recorded 
have been those made by the late Dr. William Jones and Mr. F. C. 
Cole in the Philippines; the Alfred R. Brown collection from 
Andaman and Nicobar Islands; Australian material from the Uni- 
versity of Melbourne; material from Congo and Soudan, collected by 
Mr. E. E. Ayer, and Salish Indian material presented by Mr. Homer 
E. Sargent. Three thousand catalogue cards, forming a small portion 
of the Mrs. T. B. Blackstone Chinese and Tibetan collection, have 
been prepared by Dr. Berthold Laufer, but remain unentered in the 
departmental inventory, awaiting the completion of the cataloguing 
of the collections. The efficiency of the records of the Department 
has been maintained and the classified card catalogue of tribes, as 
well as an alphabetical record of same, has been continued. It is 
very gratifying to report that labels of black card with aluminum 
ink have been printed and placed upon improved wooden label holders 
of varying slants in 44 cases, containing ethnological material from 
California, and that in thirty-five exhibition cases devoted to the 
ethnology of the Hopi Indians the old and faded buff labels are being 
rapidly replaced with revised and rewritten black card labels. The 
information on the old buff printed labels accompanying the Tlingit 


112. Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


Indian collection, as exhibited in twenty-one cases, has been copied 
and is ready for the printer. The copying of these labels, instead of 
using same as copy for the printer, was deemed advisable, that the 
labels be not removed from the cases for any length of time, thereby 
denying the public the information upon same. Copy for labels of 
most of the cases containing Egyptian Archaeological and North 
American ethnological material, other than those cases cited above, 
has been prepared and is given the printer from time to time. Many 
specimen, case and general labels have been prepared for the Chinese 
and Philippine collections. The labelling of collections with the new 
labels greatly enhance the appearance of same. For the past year 
the printer has delivered to this Department 154 labels for Northwest 
Coast collection; 4,167 labels for California collections; 1,143 for the 
Stanley McCormick Hopi collection; 978 for the Mrs. T. B. Blackstone 
Chinese collection; 567 for the R. F. Cummings and other Philippine 
collections; 58 case labels, making a total of 7,067, besides 13,475 
catalogue cards for various collections. All new material installed 
during the year in the Department of Botany has been inventoried and 
labelled; entries to the number of 32,029 were made during the year, 
bringing the total up to date to 329,839, contained in 56 catalogue 
books. The principal work of cataloguing in the Department of 
Geology during the year had to do with the Head collection, the 
cataloguing of which was completed. The number of entries made 
for this collection during the year was 6,659, making a total of 10,203 
for the entire collection. In addition to the cataloguing of this col- 
lection, identification of the specimens was carried on, the unidentified 
material.being named and previously identified material being examined 
for correctness. During the reinstallation of the petroleum collection 
the opportunity was improved to more fully catalogue its specimens, 
about 400 additional entries being made. To the Department library 
170 books and 189 pamphlets have been added during the year and 
159 cards to the card catalogue. The work of labeling has been 
carried on as fast as labels could be furnished by the printer. A full 
series was made for the gems and semiprecious stones of the systematic 
mineral collection. White or black board was used for these labels, 
according to the color of the background on which the gems were 
mounted. A total of 208 labels was thus prepared and installed. 
For the newly installed petroleum collection, 381 labels were prepared 
and distributed, 71 of these being descriptive. Of the labels for the 
clays and soils, copy for which has been prepared in full, 763 labels 
were made and distributed. About 30 other labels, more or less 
descriptive, were provided for the vertebrate and invertebrate fossils.

Ten case labels were prepared and placed on the cases in Higin- 
botham Hall. In the Division of Mammalogy and Ornithology the 
cataloguing and labelling of specimens was continued as usual. 
The reference collection of mammals is now quite thoroughly cata- 
logued, with the exception of the specimens of large size stored in 
the iron insect-proof room in the basement of the Musuem. Under 
existing conditions, these large specimens are not readily accessible, 
but other work is now advanced so it will probably be possible soon 
to undertake the cataloguing and arrangement of them. During the 
year a small number of large skulls of mammals have been trans- 
ferred from the Division of Osteology to Mammalogy, and all the 
skulls and skeletons on exhibition have been numbered. and entered 
in the Mammalogy catalogues, where reference to them is often 
necessary. <A special card index of mammal skeletons'has. also been 
made and the card index of the mammal collection has been subject 
to continual revision. The greater part of the time of one assistant 
has been devoted to cataloguing and labelling birds. Altogether, 
3,517 entries have been made—2z,803 in Ornithology, 630 in Mammal-. 
ogy, and 84 in Odlogy. 

The year’s work on catalogues and inventorying is shown in detail 
below.

Accessions.— As in the previous year, the greater number of ac- 
cessions in the Department of Anthropology were acquired by gifts. 
Through Mr. Stanley Field, Mr. Edward E. Ayer, Mr. Arthur B. 
Jones, Mr. Watson F. Blair, Mr. George F. Porter, and Mr. George 
Manierre, a valuable collection of jewelry from the Kabyle tribes of 
Algeria, Africa, was donated and is now installed in Higinbotham Hall. 
An interesting collection of footwear was presented by Mr. T. A. 
Shaw of Chicago. Mr. Edward E. Ayer enriched the collection of 
archeological material from Egypt by a life-size stone statue of the 
Goddess Sehkmet. Mr. Homer E. Sargent presented a typical col- 
lection of Salish Indian material. While there were no large collec- 
tions purchased there were several individual specimens of consider- 
able interest and importance acquired in this manner, the principal 
one of this character being an Egyptian stone sarcophagus.

The total increase of the otcaniaeal herbameam during the year 
amounted to 31,092 specimens. The accessions deserving of especial 
mention in the Department of Geology were the following: By gift were 
received from the late Prof. W. P. Blake, two full-sized sections of the 
Noon meteorite, and from Dr. Walton Haydon of Marshfield, Oregon, 
141 specimens of fossils of the Oregon Tertiary and 8 specimens of con- 
cretions. By exchange, specimens of the Vigarano and Cowra meteor-

ites were received. By collection about 400 specimens of invertebrate 
fossils from Illinois and Kentucky were obtained. By purchase were 
obtained an exceptionally fine slab of Ordovician crinoids from Ohio 
and three fine specimens of vivianite from Colorado. The total num- 
ber of accessions added to the Zodlogy collections is 1,381, of which 
357 are mammals, 485 birds, and 539 birds’ eggs. These are sum- 
marized as follows: from Museum expeditions 249 mammals, 464 
birds, and 7 birds’ eggs; by purchase 100 mammals, g birds and 532 
birds’ eggs; by gift 8 mammals and 11 birds; by exchange 1 bird. Ex- 
cept for the work on the Panama expedition there have not been many 
additions made to the collection of fishes and reptiles during the year; 
but the Panama expedition in connection with the Smithsonian has 
largely increased the collection, at a minimum cost. No noteworthy 
acquisitions to the collection in the Division of Entomology can be 
recorded for the period of time under consideration. As the following 
summary will show, no insects were purchased, neither were there any 
rarities among the limited number of specimens received from various 
sources. The insects accessioned during the year tg11 were 428 local: 
insects collected by William J. Gerhard, 215 local insects collected by 
A. B. Wolcott, 49 insects collected on Museum expeditions and 64 
insects presented by various donors. 

EXPEDITIONS AND FIELD Work.— After completing the work among the 
Bagobo referred to in the last Report Mr. Cole, in continuing the 
ethnologic survey of the Philippine Islands under the fund provided 
by Mr. Robert F. Cummings, went to the Manobo, a tribe living along 
the Padada River and in the Malalag swamps of the Davao district. 
From them he went to the Bilaan, a little-known tribe of the interior. 
Owing to a serious religious outbreak among the members of these 
two tribes, intensive study was greatly hindered, but considerable 
headway was made in the study of their laws and religion, particularly 
as related to their custom of annual human sacrifices: A collection 
of about 550 pieces was secured from that district. A small collection 
was also obtained from the Divavaon, an interior tribe. The last 
collection was made on the southeastern coast of Mindanao, among 
the Mandaya. The people of this tribe live in small villages, often 
building their houses high in the branches of trees. This tribe has a 
rather advanced material culture, possesses many beautiful weapons, 
and a distinctive type of dress, all of which are fully shown in the col- 
lection. More than 400 specimens and much valuable information 
had been secured when a severe illness caused Mr. Cole to leave the 
district and return to the States. Among the four tribes named 
he obtained two hundred physical measurements, three hundred

negatives illustrating the life of the people and the country they in- 
habit and two dozen phonograph records. The work of securing 
additional Hopi ethnological material, under the recent Stanley Mc- 
Cormick grant, was entrusted to Assistant Curator Owen. As the 
previous Hopi collection had been made chiefly at the third mesa, 
a house to house search of the first and second mesas was made and 
yielded 1,600 specimens. Prominent among these are masks, head- 
dresses, tihus, an old Oagol altar (fragmentary) of 45 pieces, an original 
Balolokon screen, fetishes, charms, bahos, varieties of the throwing 
stick; food stuffs, medicines, basket materials, textiles, games, stone 
implements, necklaces, jewelry of silver, moccasins, floor smoothing 
stones, mortars for foods and paints, cotton seed, also a comprehensive 
collection of ceremonial paraphernalia. More than 200 photographs 
were made of scenes of Hopi life and surroundings. A most gratify- 
ing report from Dr. Lewis, who has been for some time past and is 
now conducting the Joseph N. Field, South Pacific Islands expedition, 
has been recently received. Dr. Lewis reports that since making his 
last formal report he spent six weeks in the British Solomon Islands, 
during which time he visited several of the different islands and obtained 
quite a number of specimens, though from the museum standpoint there 
is not very much left in most of these islands, except in the most in- 
accessible parts, and that, as it would take a year or so to visit the 
different islands and make a representative collection, he deemed it 
inadvisable to stay longer, so he secured the services of a resident who 
has occasion to visit most of the islands on business, to make a col- 
lection for him. In the early part of January Dr. Lewis returned to 
Sydney, intending to visit the New Hebrides and New Caledonia next, as 
it is impossible to get directly from the Solomon Islands to these other 
groups. On account of the season and the condition of his health 
Dr. Lewis thought it wisest to postpone his visit to these islands until 
April, and in the meantime took a trip to New Zealand by the way of 
Fiji, Samoa and Tonga. In Fiji he procured a few specimens and 
arranged to get additional ones. At Auckland Dr. Lewis procured a 
few very rare and valuable specimens, chiefly from the Solomon Islands. 
After spending a week or more in the geyser district he proceeded to 
Wellington and spent a week there, studying the collections in the 
Dominion Museum, where he arranged with the Director of that 
Museum to exchange material collected in the field for a collection of 
photographs, etc. From Wellington he returned to Sydney by way 
of the South Island and Melbourne, as he wished to visit the Museums 
at Dunedin, Christ Church and Melbourne, and obtain letters from the 
commonwealth officials at Melbourne to the officials in British New

Guinea and New Hebrides. He reached Sydney in time to catch 
the steamer for New Hebrides on April 1st. It takes six weeks to 
make a round trip of the islands and return to Vila, the chief port. 
In addition to this trip he spent two months in Malekula and Ambrym. 
Here he succeeded in getting a number of very rare specimens, includ- 
ing some of the large drums and carved wood figures, most of which 
have been forwarded to the Museum, but unfortunately, owing to 
bad weather, the steamer was not able to stop at one place where he 
had a number of specimens so he arranged for these to be sent on later. 
He reports that arrangements with a missionary in the Santa Cruz 
group were made to send a collection to the Museum, as it would 
have taken too much time for him to have gone there. After packing 
his collections at Vila he proceeded to New Caledonia, where he spent 
a month visiting the wildest portions of the northern end of the island 
and getting a very interesting, though not a very large collection. He 
then returned to Sydney and there purchased a few rare specimens 
which he had not been able to get in the islands. He further reports 
that he has also arranged for a further collection from New Caledonia, 
which will probably not be ready for some months, as it will take some 
time to get it together. The collector who has agreed to do this has 
done quite a little collecting and made the collection for the Paris 
exposition among others. Dr. Lewis reports that he cannot, in the 
time he has, either make these collections himself or wait for others 
to make them. The region is too vast. Specimens are getting scarce 
in these islands, and unless things are obtained at once there will be 
nothing left. Dr. Lewis is now on his way to Simpson Hafen, where 
he hopes to buy a collection which will nicely fill out the collections 
from the German colony, it being from those islands he was unable 
to visit. From there he proposes to proceed to British New 
Guinea as soon as possible. Assistant Curator W. H. Osgood with 
S. G. Jewett, assistant, conducted an expedition to Venezuela 
and Colombia from January to April. They entered the port of 
Maracaibo, Venezuela, and, working in that vicinity a short while, then 
proceeded inland, finally reaching the high country lying on the boun- 
dary between Venezuela and Colombia some 200 miles south of Mara- 
caibo. Their collections, while not particularly large, are unusually 
varied and valuable. They number 232 mammals and 462 birds, 
besides a few fishes and reptiles. Among the mammals are ro species 
and subspecies new to science and some eight genera new to Field 
Museum, while practically all the species were previously unrepresented 
in the collections and a considerable number are not seen in museums 
outside of Europe. Of particular interest and value were the discovery 


122 Firtp Musrum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


of the habitat and the acquirement of complete specimens of the rare 
marsupial, Caenolestes, living representative of the otherwise extinct 
family Epanorthide and of which no perfect specimens had ever 
before been taken. Work on the birds is in progress and will prob- 
ably prove to include at least as many novelties. No other expeditions 
of importance were conducted in 1911. The Curator of Zodlogy made 
a number of short field trips for the purpose of study in relation vo 
habitat groups and in studying habits of mammals in connection with 
his forthcoming work. Artist C. A. Corwin accompanied an expedi- 
tion from the University of Iowa to Laysan Island in the Pacific Ocean 
west of Hawau. Through his codperation with their party, certain 
birds and group material are to be obtained for exhibition groups in 
this Museum. Through the kindness of Mr. Cyrus H. McCormick, 
Messrs. L. LL. Pray and C. F. Brandler spent two weeks in June at 
White Deer Lake, near Champion, Michigan, where they obtained an 
excellent series of beaver and ample material for a habitat group of 
these animals. Mr. Friesser, taxidermist, has made various short 
trips in the vicinity of Chicago for miscellaneous material needed 
in his work. During the time from January 1 to May 24, the Assistant 
Curator, Dr. Meek, was in Panama collecting fishes and reptiles with 
representatives of the Smithsonian Institution, which is now engaged 
in making a biological survey of the Canal Zone and the adjacent 
region. Dr. Meek returned early in June to Chicago and= has 
since devoted the greater portion of his time to the preparation of 
an account of the Fresh-water Fishes of Central America, with espe- 
cial attention to the fishes listed from the fresh and brackish waters 
of Panama, which is preliminary to a report of the Panama collection. 
The collection made in Panama by the Assistant Curator and the 
representatives of the Smithsonian Institution comprises 440 species, 
about 25 of which appear to be new. This collection, at present in 
the United States National Museum, is in an excellent state of pres- 
ervation, and has already been catalogued and arranged for future 
study. The larger fishes, more than 2,800 specimens, are supplied 
with collector’s tags, and are preserved in stone jars. The remainder, 
about 15,000 specimens, are (with the exception of a small portion 
of the fresh-water fishes which are in this Museum) in bottles, occupy- 
ing a little more than 60 square feet of shelf-room. The small collec- 
tion here (about 300 specimens) contains the apparently new species 
of fresh-water fishes. The reptiles collected on this expedition are in 
the U. S. National Museum.. Dr. Meek reports these animals as far 
from abundant on the Isthmus, and this collection contains only about 


JAN., 1912. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. La 


150 to 200 specimens. There were also collected on this expedition 
some shells and crustaceans. As soon as these collections are studied 
they will be divided between the U. S. National Museum and Field 
Museum. The Panama Railroad and Steamship Company trans- 
ported the entire party and equipment from New York to Colon and 
return free of charge; also provided the party with living quarters 
when in the Canal Zone free of charge, with free transportation on 
the Panama Railroad, besides granting other favours. The Curator 
of Botany began in February a botanical exploration of the Turks 
and Caicos Islands, Bahamas. He chartered and provisioned a 
small sloop, enabling him to explore the following islands that 
would otherwise not have been possible: South Caicos, Long Cay, 
East Caicos, North Caicos, Parrot Cay, Stubb’s Cay, Pine Cay, Dellis 
Cay, Little and Great Ambergris Cays, Sand Cay, Salt Cay, Cotton 
Cay, Penniston Cay, Eastern Cay, Gibbs’ Cay, and Grand Turk Island. 
The expedition resulted in a very satisfactory reconnaissance of these 
islands and concluded the botanical survey of the Bahamian Archi- 
pelago that has received the combined attention of this Museum and: 
the New York Botanical. Garden for the past seven years. The 
Assistant Curator of the Division of Dendrology has spent the full 
year in field work upon the Pacific Coast, securing material for the 
North American Forestry Collection. He has shipped several con- 
signments of tree material from Oregon and California; a large number 
of herbarium specimens, economic material, dried fruits, photographic 
negatives, and other interesting specimens. His work includes the 
securing of a Redwood trunk, ‘‘Wheel”’ and large plank intended for 
trophies in the Dendrological Hall of the new building. Mr. Lansing, 
of the Division of Herbarium, who has been collecting in the southern 
Lake Michigan area for the last decade, has continued the work during 
the past season through, making several trips in Michigan from Benton 
Harbor to New Buffalo. He also spent the month of June in a botan- 
ical investigation of the Ozark Mountains, Missouri. The Curator 
of the Department started September 6th, on a tour of the World in 
quest of additional economic material. His: intention is to work in 
Japan, China, Philippines, Straits Settlements, Java,’ Ceylon, and 
India. The Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology obtained 
by collection about 150 specimens of invertebrate fossils at Chanahon 
and Thornton, Illinois, about 100 specimens at the Falls of the Ohio, 
near Louisville, Kentucky, and 134 specimens at Traverse Bay, Michi- 
gan. Following is a list of the expeditions since the date of the last

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT AND PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT.— During the 
early part of the year 94 cases, containing California ethnology and 
material from the Pawnee, Wichita, Caddo, and Arikara Indians, 
and material from South America, were removed from Halls 30, 31 
and 34 and Alcoves 106, 107 and 108 to the East Court, so that 
cases of installed material in the Department of Geology could be 
removed from the West Annex and accommodated in the above 
vacated Halls and Alcoves. In order to make this arrangement, it was 
found necessary to remove from public exhibition the contents of 
32 cases of North and South American archaeological material, 
which has been carefully packed, labelled and stored where it doubt- 
less will have to remain during the occupancy of the present building, 
as space for its proper display is not available. Hall 56, containing 
twenty-seven standard cases of installed Ainu material and material 
from Saghalin and Siberian tribes, and from India, Ceylon, Siam, 
Burma, and Korea, has been repainted and refloored and arranged 
for inspection by the public, which for some time past has been denied 
this privilege, due to crowded conditions existing in the rotunda of 
the East Annex, which no longer exists, and which, though not installed 


JAN., 1912. ANNUAL REpoRT OF THE DIRECTOR. 125 


at present, is expected to be devoted to overflow of collections from 
_ neighboring halls or temporarily installed collections. Installation 
of Chinese material of the Mrs. T. B. Blackstone collection has pro- 
gressed favorably and material filling nine cases has been labelled and 
attractively installed in double Halls 43 and 44 (which were until 
recently occupied by the Department of Botany as a storeroom). 
These halls have been thoroughly renovated and refloored. When 
the new cases are assembled and accepted these halls will be opened 
for public inspection. Besides these nine permanently installed cases . 
of Chinese material, there have been temporarily installed six cases of 
Chinese bronzes. It is hoped that hall 45 will shortly be renovated 
and put in proper condition for the exhibition of material of the Mrs. 
T. B. Blackstone collection, which cannot be shown in the adjoining 
Halls (43 and 45). The occupation of this hall for the above pur- 
pose will soon be necessary. Hall 42, which has also recently been 
used as a storeroom for botanical material, has been turned over to 
Anthropology, and has been renovated, and will be used as a 
Philippine Hall. The following Hopi altars: the Sakwa Lan (Blue 
Flute), Lagon, Tao (Singer), Yasangwu (New Year) and Ahl (Horn), 
have been reproduced by Mr. H. R. Voth under the Stanley 
McCormick fund and are ready for installation; two other altars, 
the Niman (Going Home) and Kwan (Agave) are advancing toward 
completion. Needed accessories for certain altars previously con- 
structed are also being prepared. Installation of Philippine material 
to the extent of sixteen standard cases, forming parts of the R. F. 
Cummings expeditions, have been installed. A group containing 
ninety-three miniature figures illustrating a Bontoc Igorot village 
and various phases of the life and industries of the natives, such 
as social and ceremonial life, blacksmithing, carpentering, basket weav- 
ing, spinning thread and weaving cloth, pottery making, pounding 
rice, feeding pigs, man and woman’s transportation, and architecture, 
will shortly be placed on exhibition. A group of life-size human 
figures, representing pottery making by the Igorot of the Samoki 
village of the Bontoc Igorot has also been completed in detail. 
This group represents three adults and one child. These two groups 
are the work of Modeler Gardner. Arrangements are being perfected 
for installation of the stone Egyptian sarcophagus and of a life-size 
stone figure of the Goddess Sehkmet. Owing to the great weight 
of these two objects, it is necessary to reinforce the support of the floor 
during the progress of these specimens to their exhibition localities 
in Egyptian Hall. There have been removed from temporary instal- 
lation upward of 500 Moro specimens which will be installed in 


126 FreLD MusEum or NatTurAL History — REports, Vot. IV. 


standard cases, and for which specimen, case and general labels have 
been prepared. There has also been removed from temporary exhibi- 
tion all Amburayan Igorot material, which is also being prepared for 
permanent installation. Labels for this group are being prepared. 
The temporary exhibition of printing and engraving in the Newberry 
Library has been greatly strengthened by material loaned from the 
Mrs. T. B. Blackstone collection. Since the employment of an 
assistant, whose time has been devoted primarily to the reparing of 
broken and injured material, over four hundred specimens, which 
include many valuable objects in clay, ivory, jade, porcelain, metal 
and wood, have been prepared for exhibition. Owing to the steadily 
increasing area occupied by installed material and material now ready 
to be installed, it seems as though it would be necessary to make 
provisions for the relocating of physical anthropology material now 
stored in Hall 53, and the removal and caring for the vast amount 
of material stored in double’ Hall 46-47. These halls will have to 
be soon devoted to the exhibition of the Joseph N. Field collections 
and similar material. In the Department of Botany little new 
material has been received during the past year to augment the 
economic installations, although considerable reinstallation has been 
accomplished to render the exhibits more complete, educational and 
attractive to the public. The new material inserted has come mainly 
from the Section of Modelling. The following reproductions and 
models have been installed during the year: To the Calla Family 
(Araceae) has been added a full size plant of Anthurium acaule in situ 
upon a tree limb. This reproduction shows the root system exemplify- 
ing an aerophyte; several full-size leaves and one as yet unexpanded; 
three flower clusters; one with the bract unfolded, one with the 
ovaries unfertilized, and one heavy with developing fruits; and a full 
ripe fruiting spadix depending with its weight. Associated with this 
are a male and female inflorescence of the Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Arisema 
triphyl]um), cut open to show the flowers at the base of the spadix, 
and a highly enlarged male and female element. The Lily Family 
(Liliaceae) has been further illustrated by, additional economic 
material and a model of a complete plant of the Aloe (Aloé vera) in full 
flower. The Papaw Family (Caricacea) has been augmented by a 
reproduction of a complete tree-top of the Papaw (Carica Papaya), 
bearing three fully expanded leaves, each about two feet in diameter; 
a number of leaf stems; a complete female inflorescence with three 
developed and many undeveloped flowers and twelve fruits grading 
from a young expanding ovary to a full ripe papaw. With this is 
associated a complete male inflorescence, wrought in glass, bearing

about two hundred buds and flowers; the male and female flowers 
enlarged and sectioned, showing the essential organs in situ; and a 
natural size ripe fruit in longitudinal section. See Plate XVIII. To the 
Orange Family (Aurantiacee) has been added a reproduction of a 
complete branch of the Grape Fruit (Citrus decumana) in leaf, flower 
and fruit, the cluster of fruits showing the grape-like aggregation that 
gave rise to the name. Associated with this is an enlarged flower 
revealing all its characters, and a leafy branch-tip of the Kumquat 
(Citrus japonica) and the Lemon (Citrus Limonum) in fruit. The 
Lignum Vite Family (Zygophyllacee) has gained additional interest in 
the reproduction of a complete branch of the Lignum Vite (Guaiacum 
officinale), including the leaf, flower, and fruit characters executed 
entirely in glass. See Plate XX VII. Associated with this is an enlarged 
flower of the same species sectioned to reveal its characteristics, and 
fruit of the Guaiacum sanctum entire and in transverse section to 
illustrate the ovarial characters. The case devoted to the Custard 
Apple Family (Anonacee) now contains’a natural size reproduction of 
a complete branch of the Custard Apple (Anona muricata) bearing a . 
full complement of leaves, buds, flowers, and immature and full ripe 
fruit. Associated with this are: an enlarged flower of the same 
species sectioned to show the characters and approximation of the 
essential organs; a branch tip of Ilang-Ilang (Cananga odorata) with 
two leaves and a complete cluster of fruits (see Plate X XV), a branch of 
the common Papaw (Asimina triloba) in leaf and fruit, and a full ripe 
fruit entire and in longitudinal section showing the relationship 
and character of the pulp and seeds. The Pomegranate Family 
(Punicacee) is now complete with a full size branch of the Pome- 
granate (Punica granatum) in leaf, flower, and fruit; this is accom- 
panied by an enlarged flower, in section, showing the ranked stamens, 
and a ripe fruit in two sections revealing the peculiar two-storied 
arrangement of the seeds. The Soap-berry Family (Sapindacee) has 
received the addition of a complete leafing, flowering, and fruiting 
branch of the tropic Akee (Blighia sapida). Associated with this is 
a portion of the inflorescence, enlarged, showing both a male and a 
female flower with the essential organs revealed. The first of the 
sixteen cases devoted to the Bean Family (Leguminose) has been 
installed with: a reproduction of complete fruiting, and flowering leafy 
branch of the Tamarind (Tamarindus indica, Cesalpiniacee). This 
reproduction is natural in its woody growth and its ripe fruits; the 
young twigs, leaves, and flowers are added in glass. Associated with 
this is a model of a Pea flower (Pisum sativum, Fabacee) enlarged in 
section to show the peculiar and characteristic arrangement of the 


128 Frerp Musreum or NaturaAt History — Reports, Vo. IV. 


essential organs; natural size flowers in three stages of development, 
and another separated to illustrate the peculiarities of the floral 
envelope. The balance of the case is occupied by mounted branch-tips 
of various large species, showing in each instance natural clusters of 
ripe fruits characterizing various groups in this large order. The 
Mangrove Family (Rhizophoracee) has been augmented by a model 
showing the life-cycle of the Mangrove (Rhizophora Mangle); flowers 
and fruits; seeds germinating while the fruit is still on the tree, and the 
elongated downwardly projecting radicle; free floating and fixed seed- 
lings; roots dropping perpendicularly from the branches. An enlarged 
model of the flower; a pistil in vertical section, and reproductions 
showing different stages in the germination of the seed are incorporated 
in the installation. See Plate XXII. In a number of other cases the 
installed material has been augmented through new elements, and the 
labelling has been kept up in all. The congested condition of the her- 
barium has been temporarily relieved by transferring a portion of 
the collection to the first gallery, thus giving sufficient case-room for 
a distribution of all zxserende on hand and to accommodate the growth 
of the collection during the coming year. This arrangement infringes 
to a certain extent upon the space of the workrooms and renders refer- 
ence to herbarium specimens somewhat less convenient, but it enables 
further organization of the rapidly growing herbarium to continue. 
The labors of the Geological staff were chiefly devoted during the year 
to the removal of the major part of the collections from the West 
Annex to the Main building. Twenty halls were vacated and the 
specimens and cases which they contained were, after their removal, 
for the most part reinstalled. It is gratifying to state that this work 
was accomplished without the slightest injury to specimens or cases. 
More than two hundred cases with their contents, many of them of 
great weight, were moved, and in addition the Department library, 
paleontological laboratory, Department offices, and a large quantity 
of stored material, apparatus, etc. The disposition of the contents 
of the Halls in order was as follows: From Hall 61, four cases and 
the Glyptodon mount were moved to Hall 36. From Hall 62 the 
collection of meteorites was moved entire, with the exception of one 
case, to Alcove 106. The systematic minerals, Halls 63 and 64, were 
moved to Halls 30 and 31, with the exception of two cases placed in 
Alcove 105. ‘The collections illustrating structural geology, Hall 65, 
were moved to Hall 31, with the exception of the gypsum cave, which 
was moved to Hall 36. The limestone cave and exhibit of basalt 
columns in this Hall were dismantled and placed in storage. The 
rock collection, Hall 66, was moved to and installed in Hall 35. The 


JAN., 1912. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 129 


larger and structural specimens in this Hall were moved to Hall 31. 
Space for the entire collection of marbles and building stones was 
found in Hall 34. Nine cases of the clays and sands collection and 
one case of mineral paints of Hall 68 were moved to Hall 33. Two 
cases of soils from Hall 68 were moved to Hall 35, and the remainder 
of the collection was placed in storage. The large coal map of the 
United States, Hall 69, was removed and placed in storage, as were 
also the accompanying coal specimens. Of the collection of carbon 
minerals, Hall 70, space was found for six cases in Hall 35, and the 
Australian coal column was moved to Hall 33. The contents of the 
remaining six wall cases of this collection were stored. Ten wall 
cases and two floor cases of the petroleum collection were moved to 
Alcove 107. ‘The remainder of this collection was packed and stored. 
The oil refinery exhibit in this Hall was dismantled and such of its 
contents as were deemed desirable for preservation were stored. The 
collection of gold, silver and lead ores, Hall 72, was moved entire to 
Hall 34. Similar disposition was made of the collection of ores of the 
base metals occupying Hall 79, with the exception of three large speci- 
mens of zinc, nickel and manganese ores. These it will be necessary 
to store. The large specimens in Hall 80 were placed in storage. 
The collection of salts and abrasives comprising eighteen cases was 
moved from Hall 78 to Hall 31. Space was found for the majority 
of the relief maps formerly exhibited in Halls 75 and 77 in Hall 34 
and Alcoves 105, 106, and 107. To recapitulate, the present disposi- 
tion of the collections moved is as follows: In Hall 30 have been placed 
twelve floor cases and fourteen wall cases of the systematic mineral 
collection; one case of gems; one case of copper ores; and one case of 
nickel ores. In Hall 31, four floor cases and two wall cases of minerals; 
eight wall cases and ten floor cases of salts and abrasives; and fifteen 
wall cases of structural specimens and rocks. In Hall 33, nine floor 
cases of clays and sands; one wall case of mineral paints; one case of 
coal; and one case of meteorites. In Hall 34, nine floor cases and four 
wall cases of marbles and building stones; ten wall cases and fifteen 
floor cases of gold, silver and lead ores; ten wall cases and twelve floor 
cases of ores of the base metals; the model of the Chandler iron mine; 
and thirty-eight relief maps. In Hall 35, six floor cases of coals; eight 
floor cases of systematic rocks; two floor cases of clays and soils; two 
cases of relief maps. In Hall 36, four wall cases of Quaternary fossils; 
the gypsum cave and two relief maps. In Alcove 104, sixteen relief 
maps. In Alcove 105, six relief maps and two cases of gems and 
crystals. In Alcove 106, six wall cases and four floor cases of 
meteorites. In Alcove 107, ten wall cases and two floor cases of 


130 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


petroleum; and adjoining, seven relief maps. The laboratory of 
vertebrate paleontology formerly occupying Hall 73 was moved to 
the section of taxidermy. Space was also found in this section for 
storage to the number of several hundred of the field bundles which 
are to be worked out later. The greater portion of the Department 
Library was moved to Alcove 118. By erection of a partition in 
_front of the alcove an enclosed space was obtained in which the 
books are kept securely and at the same time made accessible. 
The economic and mineral specimens stored in trays and formerly 
occupying Hall 75 were moved to Hall 60. Reinstallation of the 
specimens in the cases since their removal has for the most part 
been completed and in connection with the work some 1mprovements 
and additions have been made. The case containing the Chalmers 
crystal collection and the case of ornamental stones was provided 
with finished glass shelves and the specimens reinstalled upon 
them. Some specimens were added to the case of ornamental stones 
and the entire collection was relabelled. Nine of the onyx slabs 
in the onyx collection were framed, improving their preservation 
and appearance. Several of the relief maps were repainted and framed, 
making this work, which has been carried on at intervals for some 
vears, now practically complete. In repainting each map the opportu- 
nity was improved to bring the detail of the maps up to date, altera- 
tions being found especially necessary on the maps of the Grand 
Canyon, Yosemite Valley and Yellowstone Park. Other relief maps 
which were thus repainted and framed were those of Palestine and 
the Arkansas River. Considerable work was done before the removal 
of the petroleum collection in the way of placing the specimens in new 
containers and reorganizing the collection. The Standard Oil Com- 
pany generously provided for the collection a full series of new cases, 
and installation in these had been nearly completed at the time of 
removal. The cases provided were nine wall cases, six flat floor cases 
and two pyramidal floor cases, all of the standard Departmental type. 
An important change made in the installation of the collection con- 
sisted in the adoption of a new jar for the liquid specimens. The 
new jar adopted holds a much smaller quantity than the old but makes 
nearly as much display, and the optical characters of the specimens 
are better b ought out. The jars used were of a special design, sixteen 
inches high and two inches in diameter. The expense of supplying 
them was also generously borne by the Standard Oil Company. An- 
other change made was to remove to closed cases the tubes of oil sands 
which have been so exposed as to have become badly soiled. The 
cases now used for these sands are of the standard pyramidal type. 


JAN., IgI2. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 131 


In order to permit turning of the tubes in the case for examination 
of their contents, the tubes were mounted in racks, connected by belts 
to pulleys and these to a wheel outside the case, so that the visitor, 
by turning the wheel, can turn the tubes and thus examine their con- 
tents in detail. Two cases containing forty tubes each were thus 
installed and fully labelled. Large additions were made to the series 
illustrating the use of the by-products of petroleum, these uses having 
greatly increased in the time that has elapsed since the collection 
was originally formed. In moving the collection it was necessary. to 
store all of this series, but it will be available for future exhibit. The 
portion of the collection now on exhibition occupies ten wall cases 
and two floor cases. It includes 232 specimens of petroleums, 114 
specimens of lubricating oils, 57 specimens of vaselines and allied 
products, 40 quantitative specimens, and 80 specimens of oil sands. 
The series of by-products obtained in the production of coke was in- 
stalled in uniform sealed glass tubes, in order to insure the preservation 
of the materials and make a better installation possible. A series of 
' models to represent the development of the blast furnace has been 
begun by the construction of a model of a modern iron blast furnace 
and some of its accessories. The design of the model was based upon 
careful studies made by the Assistant Curator, through the courtesy 
of the Illinois Steel Company, of furnaces at South Chicago. The 
model has been built so as to occupy one half of one of the wall cases 
used for the ores of the base metals. It consists of two equal portions, 
one showing the exterior appearance of the furnace and accessories, 
and the other the same in sectional form. All are built on a scale of 
two feet to the inch. In the group giving the exterior appearance, 
a tower elevator for bringing charges to the top of the furnace is repre- 
sented at the extreme right. This is connected by a bridge to a charg- 
ing platform in the furnace proper. The furnace on the scale mentioned 
represents one 60 feet in height. The tap hole is in front and the slag 
eye on the right. At the left is shown a downcomer to carry off the 
gases and at its base is a self-dumping dust-catcher. At the left of 
this is a single hot-blast stove with pipes, valves, etc. In the sectional 
group complete longitudinal sections are shown of the various members. 
In the section of the furnace the brick work, water-cooling pipes, 
charging bells and other pipes and valves are shown. A charge of 
real ore, fuel, etc., is also represented, passing to a molten state at the 
bottom. The sections of the stove, dust-catcher and downcomer also 
show full details. In addition to the sectional character of the con- 
struction above ground, the under-ground connections and foundations 
are represented. In the laboratories of vertebrate paleontology the 


132 Fretp Museum oF Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


work carried on has been, in addition to the moving of the laboratory 
and specimens to new quarters, chiefly the preparation of the Eocene 
material obtained by the expedition to Utah in 1910. Chief in im- 
portance of the material prepared, and alone of sufficient value to repay 
several times the cost of the expedition, is a skull of Eobasileus. This 
skull, of which only two others are known, is of large and striking 
form and well preserved. Good skulls of two genera new to science 
which were obtained by the expedition have also been prepared. 
There have also been prepared from this series five skulls and four 
lower jaws of Metarhinus. This is much the largest collection of this 
genus ever made, the genus itself having been known for only three 
years. The material contains two new species and will furnish several 
other new characters. Other material prepared includes three skulls 
and one pair of lower jaws of Dolichorhinus, one skull of Amynodon, 
one skull of Protelotherium, one skull and one pair lower jaws of 
Telmatherium, one skull and one pair of lower jaws of Mesonys, and 
one lower jaw of the large carnivore Harpagalestes. The large skull 
of Brontotherium ramosum obtained by the expedition of 1906 has 
been placed on exhibition with the other titanothere skulls. The 
chemical laboratory at Jefferson Avenue was available for use during 
part of the year and several complete quantitative analyses were 
made there. Among these was one of the Noon meteorite and several 
of the Brazilian favas associated with the diamond. The latter 
analyses showed the presence of two minerals new to science. Re- 
moval of the laboratory during the latter part of the year to a new 
location compelled the discontinuance of this work until new facilities 
can be provided. Several of the sections of iron meteorites, which had 
been poorly etched when received, were repolished in preparation for 
proper etching. Subsequent to the moving of the mineral collection 
the rearrangement of the study series of this collection was under- 
taken and completed for the silicates. The specimens comprised in 
this group were placed in individual trays, labelled and distributed 
according to species and localities. Preparation of plans for the 
Departmental offices and laboratories in the new building occupied 
the time of the staff during part of the year. The plans made were 
worked out with considerable care as to detail, and it is believed that 
the equipment planned for will provide the fullest possible facilities 
for the various lines of work which are to be undertaken. Of the 
four large bird groups being produced under the Field-Sprague 
Ornithology Fund one (a habitat group of the Loon) has been 
opened to the public, and the others are all in an advanced stage 
of preparation. The unusual amount of accessory material—leaves,

flowers, etc.—to be made for them has delayed the work. Two of 
them are now practically finished and the work of final installation 
will soon be under way. The principal birds to be shown in these 
groups are the Loon (now on exhibition), the Great Blue Heron, the 
Whooping and Sandhill cranes, and the Golden Eagle. The group of 
American Antelopes or Prongbucks was completed early in the year. 
It consists of five animals, mounted by Taxidermist Friesser, in a 
setting representing the arid elevated region of northern Mexico, with 
reproductions or actual specimens of cacti, agaves, ocotillos, and other 
desert plants, and a large background painted by Mr. Corwin. This 
is the first flat background to be used for large groups, and it seems 
very successful especially, for a group of this size (9x 14), having a 
large single plate-glass front and skilfully adapted foreground, produ- 
cing an effect of distance and atmosphere that is most realistic. <A 
group of grizzly bears of the same size and with a similar background 
is practically completed and will be finally installed early in 1912, now 
being delayed only by the necessity of subjecting some of the accessories 
to a long drying process. A large habitat Beaver group is well under 
way and seems likely to prove one of the most attractive groups. 
The specimens, houses, etc., were secured by permission of Mr. Cyrus 
H. McCormick on his preserve near Champion, Michigan. The group 
should be finished early in the coming year. A background has been 
painted for a large group of the Olympic or Roosevelt Elk, and the 
specimens are in hand to be used for it. The preparation of a group 
of Alaska Moose, which was planned, has been deferred until specimens 
can be obtained, those intended for use having proved unsatisfactory. 
A case of small mammals prepared by Taxidermist Pray was placed 
on exhibition early in the year, being the first of its kind among the 
exhibits. It includes representatives of four species so arranged that 
each has its characteristic environment shown without any unnatural 
or artificial division of the case. In this group, although no painted 
background is employed, a fine effect is produced by the use of bright- 
coloured leaves and attractively arranged foliage in the centre of the 
case serving as a background for all four groups. The species shown 
are the White-footed Mouse, the Jumping Mouse, the Meadow Mouse, 
and the Short-tailed Shrew. The serial or systematic exhibition of 
birds has been largely reinstalled in new cases fitted with longitudinal 
central screens painted dull black and carrying plate-glass shelves 
on which the birds on conventional perches are arranged in linear 
series according to relationship. Some twenty birds were mounted 
and added to this exhibition collection during the past year and others 
are now in the hands of the taxidermists. Some eight hundred new 


134 Frerp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. IV. 


labels were provided for these birds and a large number of new labels 
was placed also in the serial exhibition of mammals. Considerable 
time was devoted to the work of reinstalling a portion of the bird 
collection. In spite of many interruptions the regular work of 
pinning and labelling entomological material was continued as usual, 
and 1,119 specimens were prepared. A number of days was given to 
showing specimens to scientific visitors and teachers with their classes. 
The services of the assistant, Mr. Wolcott, were largely utilized in 
drawing maps and other illustrations for use in the publication on 
Mammals of Illinois and Wisconsin (now in press). Aside from the 
work of pinning and installing insects, experimental work was under- 
taken in preserving or reproducing insect larvee for proposed exhibition 
groups. The two forms to which the assistant gave the most atten- 
tion were the Cecropia and the Polyphemus moths. The eggs, larve, 
and cocoéns of these specimens‘ collected during the fore part of the 
summer, and subsequently the various breeding stages, were utilized 
in order to illustrate the life history of these insects. After making 
a number of experiments on the immature stages of these species, 
it was found necessary to reproduce the larvee in wax, using, however, 
also parts of the original specimen, such as the head, feet, spines, etc. 
For the branches which are to contain the larve there have been made 
over four hundred and fifty wax leaves. Although the wax is much 
in the nature of a new undertaking, and although some important 
problems have not yet been solved—the preservation of hairy cater- 
pillars, for instance — still the results are so promising that it is hoped 
to continue the work. During the year the work in the Division of 
Osteology has progressed favourably, a great deal of time being devoted 
to cleaning skulls for the study and exhibition series. A valuable 
acquisition to the Museum was a fine skeleton of the extinct Great 
Auk, Plautus impennis, which was skilfully mounted for exhibition by 
Assistant Curator Gueret. The degreasing plant at Whiting, Indiana, 
still being at the disposal of the Museum, 33 skeletons and skulls of 
mammals, birds and fishes were degreased during the year, also a 
large mounted Tarpon.

The chief work performed during the year was the printing of labels for 
the Department of Anthropology as the statement shows. There were 
also printed 250 copies of the regular Museum publication list (11 pages), 
50 copies of the new by-laws of the Corporation and 250 copies of a 
special Museum publication list for distribution to the names on the 
exchange list. 

PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLUSTRATION.— This section has had an unusually

Attenpance. — The attendance for the year shows a slight decrease 
compared with previous years. This may be explained by the 
unusual number of rainy Saturdays and Sundays—free days—during 
the year. The following is the list of school classes (twenty pupils or 
more) that visited the Museum during the year:

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 
Ris 1 BW 


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, 1912. 

The progress of installation during the year, especially in Asiatic 
and Philippine Ethnology and in Zoology — the latter including a 
number of large bird and animal groups — has so encroached upon the 
rooms reserved for storage purposes and so congested certain halls, that 
it has been found necessary to reopen the West Annex, which had been 
vacated in anticipation of the commencement of the construction of the 
new Museum building, and by the time this report reaches the Board 
the four scientific departments of the Museum will be provided, for 
the present at least, with ample storage and preparators’ work rooms. 
The Joseph N. Field Expedition to the South Pacific Islands has con- 
cluded its work under Mr. Lewis, and upon his return, soon expected, 
the vast amount of material received by the Museum as a result of his 
survey and collections will be catalogued, labelled and prepared for 
installation. It is estimated that this material will fill four or five halls. 
The Curator of the Department of Anthropology, who has been absent 
on a protracted leave of absence, returned to his duties in June and the 
inspiration given to the work of that Department by the personal 
presence of its Curator is quite apparent in the references elsewhere 
made to the progress of that Department. Mr. Fay Cooper Cole, 
who conducted so successful an expedition to the Philippine Islands, 
has been appointed Assistant Curator of Physical Anthropology and 
Malayan Ethnology. Mr.S. Chapman Simms has, upon the approval 
of the Curators of the scientific departments, been appointed by the 
Director, Curator of ‘‘The N. W. Harris Public School Extension of 
Field Museum,” and the work of preparation — in selecting type cases, 
character of unit collections, etc.— is well advanced. The suite of the 
Curator of Harris Extension has been established in the southwest halls 
of the West Annex. Assistant Curator Owen is completing his work 
among the Hopi in Arizona, under the Stanley McCormick Fund. Mr. 
Huron H. Smith, who has been in the field collecting North American: 
Forestry for the past three years, having completed his work, has 
returned and is now in charge of the preparation and installation of 

187 


188 FreLtp Museum oF NAtTuRAL History — REports, VoL. IV. 


this large collection, which will naturally involve a great deal of time 
and labor and eventually present an unexampled exhibit in this material. 
Assistant Curator Greenman of the Department of Botany has resigned to 
accept a position with the Missouri Botanical Garden of St. Louis, leaving 
this Institution with the best wishes of his colleagues. Assistant Curator 
‘Riggs has made marked progress in working up the splendid result of 
his last paleontological expedition in the Uintah desert in northeastern 
Utah, and there is now on exhibition probably the most complete collec- 
tion of skulls from this formation in the world. The purchase of the 
meteorite collection of the late Henry A. Ward, which for several 
years has been on exhibition at the American Museum of Natural 
History, has established the Museum in the first rank in this interesting 
division. The material is being installed in the cases accompanying 
the collection, but will not be placed on exhibition in the present 
building. The most important field expedition this year was that under 
Mr. Osgood, Assistant Curator of Mammalogy and Ornithology, to 
South America, the results of which expedition are more specially set 
forth under the proper heading. The work is being conducted in charge 
of two assistants, although Mr. Osgood has returned to the Museum. 
Assistant Curator Meek has completed his second survey in the Panama 
Canal Zone in connection with Smithsonian Institution, with excellent 
results and abundant material for the study collections and for publica- 
tion. Mr. Carl E. Akeley has commenced work upon large African 
mammal groups in performance of his contract entered into with the 
Museum a year or more ago. His first group will be the Cape Buffalo, 
consisting of five individuals. Under the patronage of Mr. Stanley 
Field and Mr. Albert A. Sprague II four most striking, brilliant four- 
section bird groups have been acquired. In response to the demand 
from the Curators for exhibition cases, the Trustees transferred the sum 
of $105,000 to a “‘New Exhibition Cases Fund,” and it is believed 
that this provision will give to the Museum all the cases it will be con- 
sidered advisable to install before the occupation of the new building. 
There is not sufficient exhibition space remaining in the entire Museum 
to accommodate this number of new cases, approximating 600, and, 
therefore, as the cases are installed, instead of being introduced in their 
proper halls or suites they will be stored in the West Annex and not be 
accessible by the public until placed in the proper position in the new 
building. Among the publications of the Museum, listed hereafter, 
that on “Jade; A Study in Chinese Archaeology and Religion,” by Dr. 
Laufer, has created a demand from the public exceeding that of any 
publication issued by the Institution. It has been widely reviewed and 
highly complimented. Mr. Richard T. Crane, Jr., has resigned from

the Board of Trustees on account of the pressure of private business, and 
eleven new Life Members have been elected during the year. A num- 
ber of important donations have been made in the collections of the 
Museum, including two very interesting and valuable Chinese paintings, 
presented by the Tuesday Art and Travel Club of Chicago. The paint- 
ings are of scroll work on silk, measuring twenty-five and thirty feet 
in length. Every evidence of progressive activity in scientific and 
popular lines will be found upon consulting the review of the work 
following: 

Maintenance. — The Budget authorized by the Board of Trustees 
provided the sum of $179,030 for the maintenance of ‘the Museum 
for the year ending December 31, 1912. The amount expended was 
$167,612 which leaves a margin of $11,418. In addition to the cost 
of maintenance $70,400 was expended by authority of the Board for’ 
collections, expeditions and so forth, bringing the total expenditure 
for the year to $238,000. 

Lecture Course-— The attendance at the two courses given was: 
highly gratifying, the seating capacity of Fullerton Hall being inad- 
equate to accommodate those desiring to attend. Following is a list 
of the lectures given during the year:

THE Liprary.— The additions received during the year exclusive 
of duplicates were 2,263, increasing the number of books and pamphlets 
in the library to 58,133. Of this number 1,900 were received by gift 
or exchange and 363 by purchase, distributed as follows: 


General Library ee Be eS 39,611 
Department of Anthropology . 2,807 
Department of Botany 6,167 
Department of Geology 7114 
Department of Zoology. 2,434 
Total . 58,133 


The regular routine work of recording the books requisitioned, ordered, 
received, catalogued, bound and shelved has been continued, always 
with an aim to have the system as satisfactory as possible to give 
efficient results. The accessions of the year have been of unusual 
value and importance. Publications were received from 727 indi- 
viduals and institutions, and 27 new exchanges were effected. The 
fund available for the purchase of books was carefully expended 
upon works selected by the staff. Among the more important pur- 
chases were the New (11th) Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, 
the last edition of the Century Dictionary, a beautifully illustrated 


194 FrretD Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


copy of the ‘Catalogue of the Ancient Imperial Treasury called 
Shésdin,’’ Fenollosa’s Epochs of Chinese and Japanese Art, Smith’s 
History of Fine Arts in India and Ceylon, Havell’s Indian Sculpture 
and Painting, Lindt’s Picturesque New Guinea, Bentham’s Botany of 
the Voyage of H. M. S. Sulphur, 1836-1842, Bentham and Mueller’s 
Flora of Australia, Bradley’s Bibliography, Hallier’s Flora von Deutsch- 
land, Richards’ Ore Dressing, Osborne’s Engraved Gems, Alpheraky’s 
Geese of Europe and Asia, and Scammon’s Mammals of the West 
Coast of Africa. Through the courtesy of Mr. George Manierre the 
Museum received a set of Paxton’s Magazine of Botany, 16 volumes. 
This set is becoming increasingly rare and the library was fortunate in 
receiving so valuable a gift. As in former years the library is again 
indebted to Mr. Edward E. Ayer for gifts of books, also to Mr. Henry 
H. Getty of Paris, France; Mr. Ezra Brainerd, Middlebury, Vermont; 
Mr. William Barnes, Decatur, Illinois; Professor Walter Barrows, 
Lansing, Michigan; Mrs. M. W. Lyman, Chicago; and Dr. Berthold 
Laufer; and to the following institutions: Bureau of Aboriginal 
Affairs, and Bureau of Production and Industry, Government of 
Formosa; Indian Museum, Calcutta; Indiana State Board of Forestry; 
Maryland State Board of Forestry; Museo Nacional de Arqueologia, 
Historia y Etnologia, Mexico; North Carolina Geological and Economic 
Survey, Raleigh; Passau Naturhistorischer Verein, Germany; Penn- 
sylvania Topographic and Geologic Survey Commission; and Tokyo 
Botanical Society. The current periodical list is being gradually in- 
creased with a view to eventually including the standard scientific 
periodicals pertaining to the work of the Museum. The number of 
books, serials, periodicals and pamphlets bound during the yearwas 1,012. 
A number of pamphlets by various authors were bound in cloth to more 
properly protect them. The return of the books from the bindery 
again overtaxed the limited shelf space in the stack room and some of 
the least used books were shelved in temporary cases. A desired 
improvement was made in the library of the Department of Anthropol- 
ogy, the shelving having been enclosed by glass doors that will assist 
greatly in keeping the books free from dust. There have been written 
and added to the catalogues 18,146 cards. Two sections of the recently 
adopted metal card cabinet were purchased. Monthly installments of 
the John Crerar Catalogue cards were received and filed. 

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LaBeLinc. — Nearly 6,000 
catalogue cards have been entered in the inventory books of the 
Department of Anthropology during the year, the large majority of 
these pertaining to the Blackstone Chinese and Japanese collections. 
About 800 cards have been written from the Philippine collections,

covering the Ayer, Darrah, Jenks and Porter collections and nearly a 
thousand labels prepared for the Tlingit collections now installed 
in the East Alcoves of the South Court. The iron agricultural im- 
plements from Boscoreale installed in the North Court have been 
labeled and about 800 specimen. labels have been prepared for the 
Philippine material, besides many large descriptive labels especially 
prepared for groups and for special industries. Many revised labels 
have been placed in the McCormick Hopi collections and the old buff 
labels in the Egyptian Hall have been replaced by black and white 
labels. Rubbings of the inscriptions on the great stone sarcophagus 
from Egypt have been made and submitted to Dr. Breasted of the 
University of Chicago, to be used in preparing a comprehensive label. 
There have been prepared for the Chinese collections 1,1oolabels. In these 
Dr. Laufer has aimed, so far as possible, to avoid technical phraseology 
and erudition, to make the labels plain and intelligible to the layman. 
Thus, in explaining Chinese paintings emphasis has been laid on the 
appreciation of the spirit and inward qualities of Chinese art, in order 
to lead the public to a correct understanding and a sound judgment - 
rather than to actual knowledge of a subject so foreign to the majority 
of people. All the current accessions in the Department of Botany 
for the past year, amounting to 13,517 specimens, have been catalogued 
and 11,078 specimens entered from the large collections undergoing 
organization. These two items make a total of 24,595 entries made in 
the catalogue volumes during the year. A new and additional steel 
card index case has been added to the laboratory equipment, comprising 
ot drawers. This will give a capacity for expansion of the “Special 
Index” for about three years. All specimens added to the exhibition 
cases in the Department have been labeled. The material received 
by the Department of Geology during the year was fully inventoried 
and catalogued with the exception of the Ward-Coonley meteorites, 
cataloguing of which is still in progress. The cataloguing accomplished 
was chiefly of collections of fossils and minerals and the fossils collected 
in Iowa by the Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology. Care- 
ful identification of species was carried on in connection with this work. 
While this requires the expenditure of much time, the greater complete- 
ness of the catalogue thus obtained is believed desirable. The series 
of petroleums received during the year numbering 228 specimens was 
also fully catalogued. To the card catalogue of vertebrate fossils 32 
cards giving full description of specimens were added. The Depart- 
ment library was increased by the addition of 646 books, pamphlets 
and maps, and 123 cards were added to the catalogue of the library, 
making a total of 2,614 cards. A considerable amount of labeling of 


196 Fretp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


a permanent character has been accomplished, the total number of 
labels prepared and in part printed and distributed being about 3,000. 
A number of single series were fully labeled and the labeling accord- 
ing to standard practice of all specimens at present exhibited in the 
Department is rapidly approaching completion. For the most part 
new labels replace those of mixed character heretofore used. Many 
of these were hand written, and the rest were of the old buff card- 
board type, which were among the first products of the Museum printing 
shop. Many of these were made for a type of specimen mount now 
abandoned and in shape and size were unadapted to the present installa- 
tion. In reprinting these labels in aluminum ink on black cards, it 
was often found desirable to increase the size of the type. This called 
for a revision of the matter on the labels so that what was relatively 
unimportant as well as any matter appearing on the accompanying 
group labels was omitted. The greater part of the new labeling accom- 
plished related to the ore collections occupying Hall 34. Except for the 
marbles and building stones, which were done previously, the labels 
for the whole of Hall 34 were revised during the year, and those for 
the gold, silver, lead and platinum collections installed. The total 
number of labels thus prepared was about 2,000. Besides the prepa- 
ration of labels for the individual specimens attention was paid to 
group labels in this series and enough of them were provided to break 
up the too uniform appearance of lines of specimens. Besides the 
group labels of the type formerly employed, a number of mining 
district labels were prepared. These state briefly where the district 
is located and give a few of the more salient features of its ore de- 
posits. In preparing these labels every effort was made to keep the 
labels as brief as possible, to use as large type in the body of the label 
as possible, and to employ language as non-technical as the subject 
would allow. An extensive series of labels was prepared for the 
petroleum collection and the labeling of this collection was prac- 
tically completed. Nearly 500 labels were prepared for this col- 
lection, about 30 of them being descriptive and the remainder 
giving full details. The Chalmers collection of crystals, occupying 
Alcove 105, was provided with a full series of new labels, about 
200 labels being prepared for the purpose. About 300 labels were 
prepared and distributed among the larger rock specimens to replace 
those of a miscellaneous character which had hitherto been used. 
Complete individual labels to the number of 45 and one large descriptive 
label were provided for the case of fossil Eocene mammals, Hall 59. 
A series of individual and descriptive labels numbering about 30 was 
provided for the blast furnace models. A number of defective or writ- 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 197 


ten labels in the clay and soil collections were replaced by correct ones. 
Considerable attention was paid during the year to devising a new form 
of case label and the results at present attained seem satisfactory. The 
difficulty has been to find a stock for printing which would correspond 
with the case in color and not change under the action of light. After 
numerous experiments the end seems to be attained by employing a 
mahogany veneer mounted upon a heavy board. The veneer is finished 
to correspond in color and gloss with the case and the text of the label 
is then printed upon it. About 40 of these labels have been prepared 
and installed. Their appearance is much better than that of the card- 
board hitherto employed and it is believed they will. not suffer from 
fading. In the Department of Zoology the usual routine of cataloguing 
has been maintained. Altogether go2 entries have been made; 861 in 
Ornithology and 41 in Mammalogy. The Division of Ichthyology 
and Herpetology has been without an assistant for more than two 
years and for this reason cataloguing in this Division has advanced 
slowly. In addition to his regular duties the Assistant Curator .of 
Entomology has devoted considerable time to relabeling the systematic 
bird collection during the absence of Assistant Curator Osgood, who 
was absent in the field. Considerable progress was, however, made 
in improving the local collection of insects of which 800 specimens were 
pinned, labeled and distributed with the result that the Illinois Orthop- 
tera, or grasshoppers, roaches, etc., have now been identified and 
systematically arranged so that these insects will henceforth be acces- 
sible for study or other purposes. The collection of Systematic Osteology 
and Craniology has been relabeled throughout, the common name 
of the species being placed in bold type at the top of the label. 

The work in this important direction is shown in detail as follows:

Accessions.— As usual, the majority of accessions acquired by 
the Department of Anthropology have been through gift. Mr. Homer 
Sargent continued to show his interest in the Museum by presenting 
additional valuable material illustrating the technology of certain 
Salish tribes of the Fraser River region. From Mr. Charles A. Baker, 
as administrator for the Estate of the late R. H. Baker, the Museum 


198 Fretp Museum oF Natura History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


obtained valuable specimens from the South Pacific Islands, with many 
photographs and 66 Japanese and Ainu specimens. These have all 
been catalogued, labeled and installed in Hall 56. The Ainu material 
was especially welcome as it supplements the present collection. The 
Japanese specimens enables the Museum, with the addition of the 
material already on hand, to make what may be said to be the beginning 
of a Japanese section. Even thus, it must be admitted that Japan is 
very poorly and inadequately represented in this Department, and 
immediate attention should be given to its development. One of 
the most significant acquisitions of the year was by gift from the 
Tuesday Art and Travel Club of Chicago, who presented to the Museum 
two magnificent ancient rolls painted on silk. One, over 27 feet long, 
represents one of China’s famous paintings, showing the life, traffic, 
and culture of a mediaeval town at the end of the Twelfth Century; 
the other picture, 21 feet long, represents one hundred boys at play 
and imparts a vivid description of China’s games and customs, painted 
in a graceful style during the Ming period Both paintings are exhibited 
in specially prepared cases in Hall 45, being accompanied by detailed 
explanatory labels. Mr. John Muir, a missionary at Batang on the 
Tibetan and Chinese frontier, returned to Chicago with a collection 
of 165 Tibetan specimens, including a number of interesting paint- 
ings, books, costumes, weapons, ornaments, and a model of a Tibetan 
house, all of which form valuable additions to the Tibetan collections 
obtained by Dr. Laufer. A fine Chinese tapestry, nearly 20 feet long, 
representing The Eighteen Arhat (disciples of Buddha) in the act of 
crossing the sea, in the style of the famous painter Li Lungmien, has 
been acquired by purchase. This notable specimen came to this country 
at least a century ago through a Chinese family settling in California. 
A collection of 9 pieces of Han pottery has been purchased from Dr. 
Buckens, a Belgian physician in the service of the Peking-Hankow 
Railway, who had exceptional facilities for procuring antiquities exca- 
vated during the construction of railroads. The mortuary stoves and 
towers in this collection well supplement the manifold types on hand. 
There is, besides, a fine piece of Tcang pottery in this lot, an amphora- 
shaped jar with double dragon handles, made in imitation of Persian 
ware of theSassanian epoch. A curious album, with beautifully lacquer- 
ed covers painted in gold with miniatures, is another valuable addition; 
it contains 25 specimens of popular art, depicting the life, customs, and 
industries of Southern China in the beginning of the Nineteenth Century 
— an interesting ethnological record of the now vanishing culture of

the Manchu period. Through the continued interest of Trustee Ayer 
the South Italian collections have been enriched by four magnificent 
earthenware wine jars from Boscoreale, together with a bronze vase 
from the same villa and a collection of vases, jewelry and a sarcophagus 
from Etruria. Mr. Ayer, during the year, has also added many impor- 
tant examples to the extensive collection of North American ethnology 
previously presented by him. A certain portion of this accession has 
been set aside for use in the N. W. Harris Public School Extension of 
Field Museum project. A very interesting and unique crown from the 
Marquesas Islands has been acquired by purchase. From Melbourne 
University has been acquired by exchange an exceedingly valuable col- 
lection of ethnological material from the native tribes of Central Aus- 
tralia. Because lists have not yet been received, it is impossible to 
state at this time the number of specimens added during the year to 
the Melanesian collections, resulting from the Joseph N. Field South 
Pacific Islands Expedition in charge of Dr. A. B. Lewis. The Depart- 
ment of Botany has received the usual annual additions of herbarium 
specimens, among which the following accessions are noteworthy: 
Britton & Cowell, Cuba, 53; Otto Buchtien, Bolivia, 205; Ralph 
W. Chaney, Michigan, 300; June A. Clark, Idaho, 211; Jesse M.

sheets have been organized from the larger herbaria, secured by the 
Museum, in accordance with the following tabulation:

The total increase to the organized herbarium during the year 
amounted to 18,921 specimens. The material received for exhibition 
purposes during the past year proved highly gratifying both in character 
and amount. The principal accessions were the following: Alex. Camp- 
bell & Company, 29 examples of China teas; Prof. N. B. Ingraham, 
13 Eucalyptols from California; The American Trading Company, 
Yokohama, 20 specimens of Japanese papers, paper materials and 
fibers; The Indian Museum, Calcutta, 297 ample specimens of vege- 
table oils, resins, gums, seeds, tans, dyes, etc.; the Botanical Garden 
at Peridynia, Ceylon, 23 fruits, fibers, barks and woods; the Pacific 
Coast Kelp Mulch Company, 9 specimens illustrating the extraction 
of rubber from sea weed; the Bureau of Forestry, Philippine Islands, 
22 specimens of gums, woods and fibers; C. F. Millspaugh, collections 
made in the Sandwich Islands, Japan, China, Philippines, Straits Settle- 
ments, Java, Burmah, India and Ceylon, consisting of 362 specimens 
of fruits, seeds, gums, articles fashioned from crude vegetable sub- 
stances, etc. The above material serves to fill gaps in many plant 
families and to round out that already on hand into installable form 
and sequence. The most important accession received by the Depart- 
ment of Geology during the year and one of the most important ever 
received by the Department, was that of the Ward-Coonley collection 
of meteorites. This collection was gathered by the late Professor Henry 
A. Ward during a period of about twelve years of effort devoted exclu- 
sively to this work, and at the time of his death was the largest private 
collection of meteorites in the world. Besides material gathered directly 
by Professor Ward, his collection included the large private collections 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 205 


of the late James R. Gregory, and Count Siemaschko. The addition of 
this magnificent collection to the large one already possessed by the 
Museum gives the institution the distinction of possessing the largest 
collection of meteorites in the world. Nearly all known meteorites are 
represented, the total number of falls possessed being 650 out of a pos- 
sible 700. Moreover the representation of most of the falls is large 
and adequate. Of the following falls the representation in the newly 
acquired material is larger than in any other collection: Ballinoo, 
Barratta, Bath Furnace, Bluff, Canyon City, Canyon Diablo, Castine, 
Central Missouri, Costilla Peak, Estacado, Illinois Gulch, Indarch, 
Luis Lopez, MacKinney, Ness County, Oakley, Pavlodar, Petersburg, 
Pipe Creek, Roebourne, Saint Genevieve, Surprise Springs, and Ute 
Pass. The weight of the combined collections is nearly double that 
of the Vienna collection, hitherto the largest, and exceeds it in number 
of falls. The large collections of the British Museum and of Paris, 
Berlin, Washington and New York are also considerably surpassed by 
the Museum collection either in weight or number of falls or both. 
The relation of the Museum’s collection to the world’s other large 
collections according to their latest catalogues is shown as follows:

Other additions by exchange, purchase, etc. were made to the 
meteorite collection during the year. These included a section of the 
Kermichel meteorite by exchange with M. de Mauroy of Wassy, France, 
several hundred specimens of the Holbrook, Arizona, fall by exchange 
with Foote Mineral Company, three specimens by exchange with 
Julius Bohm, Vienna, and sections of the Hermitage Plains and Kings- 
ton meteorites by purchase. A specimen of the Kilbourne meteorite 
was also acquired. An important addition to the economic collections 
was a series of crude petroleums from 228 separate localities in Okla- 
homa, Texas, Wyoming, West Virginia, and other states. These 
petroleums for the most part had been fully analyzed, and thus form 
a type collection of great value. The collection was presented by the 
United States Geological Survey through the kindness of Dr. David 
T. Day. The largest specimen of mineral wax ever washed up on the 
Pacific Coast was presented by Mr. C. H. Marsh of Marshfield, Oregon. 
This wax is similar to the small pieces that have for many years been 


206 Frietp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


brought by the waves to the Coast. The piece presented by Mr. 
Marsh weighs about twenty pounds. He also gave specimens of 
agate, obsidian, etc., from Oregon. Mr. Louis V. Kenkel of Seattle, 
Washington, presented 50 specimens of ores and minerals from impor- 
tant and relatively inaccessible mining districts in Alaska, and thus 
added completeness to the series of ores from that region. Several 
collections received by gift or purchase contained material of value. 
These included 224 specimens of fossils and 116 specimens of rocks and 
minerals presented by Mr. Charles Winston of Chicago, a collection 
of about 200 specimens of fossils, minerals, ores and one meteorite 
presented by Dr. H. P. Woley of Chicago, 135 specimens of inverte- 
brate fossils from Iowa presented by Mr. A. G. Becker of Clermont, 
Iowa, and 236 specimens of fossils and minerals purchased from Mrs. 
Josie Pratten. The last named collection contained many specimens 
of historical interest, especially relating to early researches in the 
geology of Illinois. They included a number of types or supplemen- 
tary types. A valuable specimen of emerald in matrix was presented 
by Mr. W. S. McCrea of Chicago. Mr. John H. Muir of China gave 
an interesting series of rocks and minerals from the interior of Tibet. 
These included minerals used in bread making. A series of alundum 
and its products presented by the Norton Company of Worcester, 
Massachusetts, makes a valued addition to the collection of abrasives. 
By exchange, about 50 specimens of valuable mineral specimens rep- 
resenting localities or species not hitherto possessed in the collection 
were received from the Foote Mineral Company. By collection about 
I,500 specimens of invertebrate fossils were added. ‘These were ob- 
tained by the Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology near 
Clermont, Iowa, and Little Traverse Bay, Michigan. ‘The accessions 
in the Department of Zoology during the year were comparatively 
unimportant and limited in number, except those obtained in the field 
mentioned elsewhere. 

EXPEDITIONS AND FigELD Work.— The main field work of the Depart- 
ment of Anthropology was that of the Joseph N. Field Expedition in 
charge of Dr. A. B. Lewis. During the year nearly 100 cases of addi- 
tional material have been received from Dr. Lewis who is now on his 
fourth year of this Melanesian Expedition. After a somewhat extended 
visit late last year to the New Hebrides, Dr. Lewis returned to Sydney 
in January of this year, to re-equip preparatory to spending a year on 
the south coast of New Guinea, the first part of the year being devoted 
to British New Guinea, the second to Dutch New Guinea. Dr. Lewis 
is now on his way home. It is not known at this time how many 
specimens have been acquired as a result of this expedition, but they 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 207 


number many thousands and the collection forms one of the largest, 
most important, and most interesting ever acquired by the Museum 
through field work. Practically every region of Melanesia is rep- 
resented. Dr. Lewis has supplemented his specimens by numerous 
photographs, anthropometric measurements, and photographic records. 
To date 277 cases have arrived at the Museum as a result of the expedi- 
tion. Of these 91 have been received this year, and it is known that 
at least 21 cases additional are on the way. A great many of these 
cases exceed ro feet in length, with other dimensions to correspond. 
With a view to securing as much economic material as possible for 
installation in the Department of Botany and to gain the co-operation 
of botanical institutions in the far East, the Curator began, in August, 
Ig11, an expedition for that purpose. He visited Honolulu, where he 
was accorded a welcome by Dr. Wm T. Brigham of the Bernice Pauahi 
Bishop Museum, and collected about the city during a few hours’ stop 
at the Island. In Japan exchange relations were established with the 
Imperial Botanical Institute in the Koishikawa, Tokio; the Japanese 
Imperial Forestry Bureau at Meguro; and arrangements made with the 
American Trading Company of Yokohama; many interesting specimens 
were secured from the city and village markets and shops. In the 
identification of material valuable assistance was received from Pro- 
fessors J. Matsumura and K. Fujii of the Botanical Institute. A few 
hours’ stop in Shanghai added other interesting specimens from the 
bazaars, as did also those of Hong Kong and Canton. A nine days’ 
stop in Manila and Los Bafios resulted in the establishment of exchange 
relations and co-operative bases with the Philippine Bureaus of Forestry, 
Education, Agriculture and Science, and some 60 specimens were 
accumulated from the shops and markets. The longest stay was at 
the Botanic Gardens, Buitenzoorg, Java, where the Curator was 
accorded every convenience and facility in the laboratories and gardens, 
and among the duplicate collections, as well as the valuable assistance 
of the Director, Dr. Kénigsberger and his assistant Dr. von Faber. 
Here Dr. Millspaugh made water color studies, photographs and 
formaldehyde collections of a number of tropic genera for reproduction 
by the Section of Modeling, as well as market and field collections 
amounting to 250 specimens. In his searches through the markets he 
was kindly assisted by Mr. Heyne of the Botanic Technological Muse- 
um. In Burmah a number of items of economic interest were secured 
from the bazaars at Rangoon. In Calcutta he was given carte blanche 
to select such material as was desired from the large surplus stock of 
the Botanical Department of the India Museum and thus secured over 
400 specimens of seeds, oils, gums, resins, dyes, etc. of more than 


208 Fretp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


ordinary interest and value. Through the kindness of Mr. I. H. 
Burkhill, Reporter on Economic Products, and Mr. Hooper, the Curator, 
as well as that of Captain Gage, Superintendant of the Botanical 
Garden at Sibpur and Mr. Ralph H. Pearson, Forest Economist at 
Dehra Dun, relations were established that will prove of great value 
in the future acquirement of exhibition material. In- India con- 
siderable additional material was secured at Benares, Delhi, Agra, 
Jeypur, Bombay, Madras and Madura. At Kandy, Ceylon, co-op- 
erative relations were established with the Botanic Garden at Peridynia 
through the kindness of the Acting Director, Mr. R. H. Locke who has 
since sent in some very important and interesting specimens for instal- 
lation. Returning via Europe a few days were spent in Munich in 
drawing out some one thousand herbarium specimens from the collec- 
tion of duplicates of the older Bavarian collectors. O. E. Lansing, 
Jr., of the Department has continued, at odd intervals, to collect plants 
of the Lake Chicago Basin in Illinois and Indiana. He has also made 
several trips afield to secure living material for the use of the Section 
of Modeling; and has made a trip to Vermilion County, Illinois, and to 
Richland County, Wisconsin, principally to secure herbarium material 
for exchanges. The dendrologist, Assistant Curator Huron H. Smith, 
has continued his work of securing specimens of Pacific Coast trees 
during the past year; he has sent in a number of shipments of material; 
and has continued to collect herbarium specimens at each of his stations. 
The material is not yet organized and therefore does not appear 
in detail in this report. The Assistant Curator of Invertebrate 
Paleontology examined a number of exposures of beds of Maquoketa 
age in Fayette County, Iowa, and procured about one thousand 
specimens there. Of these specimens about 550 were brachiopods, 
200 trilobites, 100 crinoids and cystids, and the balance corals, 
sponges, pelecypods, gastropods and cephalopods. Special attention 
was paid to the collecting of trilobites in the region with the result 
that two new species were obtained and much additional material 
secured which will throw light on the structure of previously known 
species. Two new species of crinoids were also secured. This 
material, taken in connection with that obtained by the trip to the 
same locality in 1910, affords specimens upon which the description 
of one new genus and eleven new species of trilobites and one 
new genus and four new species of crinoids and cystids will be 
based. Of twelve of these the Museum will possess the types. 
Material for re-description of six previously known species of trilobites 
was also obtained. Besides material of descriptive value, some good

exhibition material was obtained, including four separate slabs of 
trilobites. The largest of these slabs has a surface of about one square 
foot. Mr. A. G. Becker of Clermont, Iowa, gave valuable assistance 
in the work of collecting in this locality. Great progress has been 
made during the year in the zoological exploration of South America. 
Assistant Curator W. H. Osgood and Assistant M. P. Anderson 
conducted an arduous expedition over the Andes of northern Peru 
and thence across the continent by way of the Amazon River. They 
sailed from New Orleans January 25, crossed the Isthmus of Pdna- 
ma, and thence proceeded down the Pacific Coast to Peru. After 
a few weeks’ work on the arid coast of Peru, they started inland 
with pack mules and gradually worked across the Andean ranges 
and descended to canoeing waters on the upper tributaries of the 
Amazon River. At this point Mr. Osgood continued rapidly down 
the Amazon by regular means of transportation and returned to the 
Museum late in October. Mr. Anderson remained to work in the little 
known upper Peruvian Amazon region and later entered Brazil. Mr. 
Becker was despatched in December to join him in that country for 
work in the coming year. At the date of last shipments, some of which 
are still in transit, over two thousand specimens had been obtained of 
birds and mammals of which practically all were previously unrep- 
resented in the collections and of which doubtless many will prove when 
studied to be new to science. The collection is particularly valuable 
and representative since it includes material from regions of such varied 
character, the arid Pacific coast, the high Andean paramos, and the hot 
tropical Amazonian forests. During the past season the Curator made 
several local trips to points in southern Michigan and northern Illinois 
and secured a number of photographs of birds and mammals and 
many notes relating to migration and habits to be used in future publica- 
tions. Early in January Assistant Curator Meek left for Panama to 
continue field work on the Biological Survey of the Canal Zone. During 
most of January and February he collected fishes in the salt water on 
both sides of the Isthmus. The latter part of February and first week 
in March were given to exploration of the Tuyra River which drains 
the southeastern portion of the Republic of Panama. The last 
three weeks of March collecting in salt water was continued. On 
April 4, Dr. Meek reached Costa Rica and-collected in the streams most 
‘accessible on both sides of the Republic during the rest of the month. 
The Costa Rica collection contains over 2,000 specimens, representing 
about 60 species, 10 of which have been described as new. The Panama 
collection made during the past two years contains about 50,000 spec-

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT AND PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT. — During the 


year more than 70 cases of material never before exhibited have 
been installed in the Department of Anthropology. To provide space 
for these cases, for work of installation, and for the arrival of cases, 
has necessitated much rearranging and the condensing of certain col- 
lections. Hall 45 has been repainted and refloored and is completely 
filled with a portion of the material of the Blackstone Chinese collection. 
To allow for the proper classification and cataloguing of the Chinese 
collection, Halls 50 and 51 have been temporarily closed to the public, 
and the cases condensed as much as possible to make room for work- 
tables. The lid of the Egyptian sarcophagus has been restored and 
installed in what is believed to be a unique and highly satisfactory 
manner above the body of the sarcophagus. The most important 
change affecting a single collection or group of collections during the 
year relates to the Joseph N. Field Melanesian collection. ‘Till recently 
this material, resulting from four years of expedition in the South 
Pacific Islands, together with an expedition of the Curator’s, the 
Parkinson, and Voogdt collections was scattered through various halls 
both in the East and West Annexes. They have all been transferred 
to Hall 71 in the East Annex, the material being partially classified 
to await Dr. Lewis’ arrival. Meanwhile all the unpacked material 
sent in by Dr. Lewis, has been grouped in Hall 72. Recent acquisi- 
tions of Kabyle and Etruscan jewelry have been temporarily installed 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 211 


in Higinbotham Hall. Models of Asiatic water craft and other 
Asiatic ethnological material have been transferred from the large case 
recently demolished in Hall 39 and placed in temporary storage in 
Hall 49. Large specimens of Pueblo pottery, occupying the top of the 
above mentioned case, have been transferred to Hall 8, to await a re- 
adjustment of material now there stored. The great Cheyenne skin tipi, 
also necessarily removed from Hall 39, has been installed in Hall 45. 
To make Halls 46 and 47 ready for Chinese collections, has neces- 
sitated the transfer of certain collections. Over 2,000 specimens of 
archeological material from Calchaqui, Argentina, have been removed 
from Hall 46 and stored in Alcove go of the East Court. Several 
hundred Eskimo specimens have also been removed from Hall 46 and 
stored in special cases in Hall 4, awaiting necessary re-installation of 
the Eskimo material. Several hundred specimens of Mexican ethnol- 
ogy belonging to the Starr collection, were removed from Hall 47 and 
placed temporarily in standard cases in the East Court, awaiting 
re-installation. Owing to the urgent and immediate need of cases, two, 
installed with ethnologic material from Australia, but which because 
of the addition of new material would necessarily be re-installed, were 
emptied of their contents which was placed with other Australian 
collections awaiting re-installation. The same treatment was accorded 
a case of material from New Caledonia. To prepare Hall 39 for the 
reception of Philippine material, one old case was demolished, its con- 
tents transferred elsewhere, and four cases of Apache and one of 
Havasupai ethnologic material were removed to Hall 1. The Rio 
Grande Pueblo material, formerly occupying Hall 1, has been removed 
from the cases and placed in storage to await re-installation when more 
suitable cases are available. The cases in which this material was 
installed were transferred to the East Annex and turned over to the 
Asiatic section for the installation of Chinese material. The Eskimo 
material in the bases of the cases in Hall 1 has been placed with other 
similar material in Hall 4, as has been the small collection of Patagonian 
ethnology. To make room for the seven new Hopi altars reproduced 
with funds presented by Mr. Stanley McCormick the cases in Hall 
15 have been re-arranged and condensed in order to care for certain 
cases transferred from Hall 17. The ethnologic material, secured as a 
result of the Stanley McCormick expedition of 1911, recently stored in 
Hall 45, has been placed in storage in Hall 16. The Philippine material 
collected by the Robert F. Cummings’ Expedition has been installed 
in 45 cases during the year. Besides the contents of 6 cases, installed 
last year in old cases, have been re-installed in new standard cases. 
Of these three were Apayao, two Igorot, and one Kalinga. To make 


212 Fretp Museum or Natura History — REports, Vot. IV. 


more effective the installation of the Philippine material, the Modeler 
has prepared about roo papier-maché forms for the special display of 
clothing of certain Philippine tribes. A special exhibit has been prepared 
showing the method used by the Bagobo in casting and incising brass. 
All of the 45 cases of Philippine material above referred to may

Asiatic section 22 new cases have been installed, so that it was possible 
to open Hall 44 last June. The Hall contains 21 cases, the material 
_ being distributed as follows: 8 cases of Han’ pottery, 2 of mortuary 
clay figures, 1 of jade, 1 of bronze implements, 1 of textiles, 1 contain- 
ing tin, wood-carving, enamel, and miscellaneous; 4 of paintings; 
1 illustrating wood-engraving and printing, and 1 containing a screen 
with inlaid feather work. The metal mirrors have been withdrawn 
from the North Court and permanently reinstalled, being arranged in 
chronological sequence, in Hall 45. Three cases, one of silver orna- 
ments; one of coins, and one of seals and medals; and one of early Bud- 
dhist bronze figures of the Wei and Tcang periods, have just been com- 
pleted. The Buddhist masks from China and Tibet have been 
unpacked, arranged, and catalogued, and plans have been made for 
their installation in the rotunda. The collection of porcelain and 
faience has been completely labeled and temporarily arranged in 
chronological order in the Wall Cases of Halls 46 and 47, awaiting 
permanent installation as soon as new cases are provided. The 
stone sculptures have been spread out in chronological arrangement 
on tables in the same hall, and it is now possible to survey the Chinese 
material in its entirety. The Tibetan material is still packed away in 
storage cases, but in such condition that any specimen needed can be 
consulted at once. The Modeler has made a cast of an inscription 
stone after a rubbing, to be placed on the stone carving of a tortoise of 
the Tcang period. He has also completed casts from a number of 
seals, as well as from inscriptions and reliefs on metal and pottery vases. 
These have been used for exhibition purposes and largely aid toward 
grasping the scenes displayed on the reliefs of the Han pottery vases, 
which are laid around the shoulders in circular bands. The casts 
have been unfolded and allow a viewing of the designs in a continuous 
row. Casts of two ancient Chinese weights have been made at the 
request of the Director of the Deutsches Museum in Munich and sent 
there as a gift of the Museum. Two cases containing Japanese color- 
prints, acquired with funds of the Mrs. T. B. Blackstone Expedition, 
have been installed in Hall 56, individual explanatory legends being 


214 Fretp Museum or Natura. History — REports, Vot. IV. 


printed on the mats of each sheet. The process of Japanese wood- 
engraving and color-printing is illustrated in comparative view with 
the analogous processes of China and Tibet in a case installed in Hall 
44. Many specimens of ancient Japanese textiles and books illustrat- 
ing costumes and designs are on exhibition in the same Hall. Besides 
a large amount of work which the Section of Photography normally 
does for this Department an especially large number of photographs 
have been prepared for Dr. Laufer to illustrate publications or for 
exhibition purposes. It is gratifying that the collection has already 
attracted the attention of students from abroad and has been studied 
by several, among whom are Dr. William Cohn and Dr. Munsterberg 
of Berlin, the Museum Commission sent by the City of Munich, 
and Mr. Lawrence Binyon of the British Museum. American students 
interested in the East and engaged in ‘Museum work or intending 
to pursue researches in the Orient, have availed themselves of the 
opportunities offered by the Museum collection,—e. g., Mr. Curtis 
and Dr. Denmar Rose of the Boston Fine Arts Museum; Mr. Crane, 
Trustee of the Newark Museum; Miss K. Ball, Superintendent of 
Art Education of San Francisco; Mr. Whiting, Director of the Art 
Museum of Indianapolis; President Wheeler of California University; 
Dr. Barrett of the Public Museum of Milwaukee; Dr. Carus, 
Editor of the Monist and the Open Court, and numerous collectors. 
No new cases have been added to the Department of Botany though 
many of the old installations have been rearranged, augmented, and 
preparations made for the rapid installation of new cases now under 
construction. The case devoted to the Orange Family has been re- 
installed through the addition of reproduced leafy branches with one 
or more ripe fruits of the Pumelo or Shaddock (Citrus decumana) and 
a transverse section of the fruit; the Mandarin orange and the Tangierine 
(C. nobilis); the usual and the fingered Citron (C. medica) with sections 
of each; the rough Lemon (C. limonum) of the tropics; the Navel 
Orange (C. aurantium); the sweet and the sour Lime (C. Limetta), 
leaving only the Bergamot wanting to complete the representation 
of this family. The Custard Apple family has received the addition of 
a leafy branch with ripe fruit of the Bullock’s Heart or Custard Apple 
(Anona reticulata) ; the Bamboos a reproduction of a full ripe and sprout- 
ing seed, a rarity, as the bamboos seldom perfect fruit. The botanical 
characters of the Buckwheat family are now represented by a complete, 
natural size, branch of the Sea Grape (Coccoloba uvifera) in full leaf, 
flower and fruit. The first case of the three devoted to the Madder 
family now contains a full size branch of the Coffee shrub in full flower 
and fruit as well as an enlarged flower showing its characters; a natural 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 215 


size “‘berry”’ in section and a fruit enlarged to reveal its various parts; 
the Sapodilla family has received the addition of a natural size branch 
of the Sapodilla tree in full leaf and fruit, an enlarged flower cluster, 
and a fruit of the Star-apple with leaves; the Milkweed family has been 
augmented with an enlarged flower of the rosy Milkweed (Asclepias 
imcarnata) showing also the method of its cross fertilization (three 
models); in the Arrowroot family three enlarged flowers have been 
modeled and installed illustrating the natural preventive measures 
evolved to prevent self-pollination. A branch has been added to the 
Pine-apple family representing the more usual mode of growth of plants 
of this family as aerophytes resting upon other plants, i. e. Tillandsia 
recurvata growing upon a leafy branch of the Calabash tree. The 
Snakeroots have received the addition of a full size reproduction of the 
Swan-flower vine comprising a portion of the whole plant with several 
_ leafy vine sections bearing an unexpanded flower and one, fully opened, 
from eight to ten inches in diameter; also a flower in section showing 
the peculiar provision for fertilization by insects, together with an 
enlarged section of the ovary and the column of essential organs. To 
the Rose family there has been incidentally added a reproduction of a 
pair of interesting hybrid apples each showing a clearly demarked half 
of two varieties. To the Clove family a natural size reproduction of 
a full flowering, leafing and fruiting branch of the Guava tree has been 
added, to the Arums the full fruiting head of the Indian Turnip and to 
the Lily family a complete flower of the wild Lily showing its char- 
acteristic organs. Attention to the representation of the multitudinous 
cohorts of lower plant life, the non-flowering plants, most of which 
require modeling through the use of the compound microscope, is now 
begun and the following results placed on exhibition: A natural size 
reproduction of a Giant Puffball, 14 inches in diameter, and a section 
of the same; a colony of Inky Mushrooms, in situ, comprising a “but- 
ton,” a full freshly expanded plant and one in the deliquescing stage 
dropping its spore-charged inky liquid. The Liverworts are represented 
through the following models: A natural size reproduction of a mass of 
plants of Marchantia in situ; an enlarged transverse section of a thallus 
with male branches, rhizoids, gemma buds and open cups; a longitudinal 
section of a thallus with female branches; a life-history group showing 
a female branch, in section, disclosing the archegonia, an archegonium 
in section showing the egg-cell, another showing a sperm-cell entering 
its neck below; a male branch, in section, disclosing the spermaries, 
and a sperm-cell — all modeled highly magnified; another life-history 
group representing a female branch with spore-capsules (Sporogonia) 
in situ; an embryo formed from the fertilized egg-cell, another with 


216 Fretp Museum or NaturRAL History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


its envelopes ruptured, and a third fully developed and discharging 
its spores; a dense cluster of spores and elaters; the germination of a 
spore in four stages; and the formation of a young thallus in two stages. 
The Horsetails (Equisele) are represented by a reproduction of a sterile 
shoot natural size; a fertile shoot in spore producing stage; and the 
beginning of a life history sequence showing, so far, a greatly enlarged 
section of the female ‘“‘cone’’ and the spores in four different states of 
expansion of the elaters. The staff of the Section of Modeling now 
comprises the ollowing artists and artisans: A modeler who is chief of 
the Section, an assembler, a glass worker, a colorist, and a caster 
and trimmer. The Section has executed a large amount of work during 
the past year which is embodied in to complete reproductions of leafing, 
flowering and fruiting branches each composed of about 650 separately 
made parts; 20 separate fruiting branch reproductions and 8 enlarged 
flower representations comprising an average of 5 separate models 
each. The following table showing the parts comprising an average 
“Whole plant’? reproduction will give an idea of the work required in 
these assemblages:

The work of revision of the petroleum collection which was interrupted 
by the dismantling of the West Annex was resumed during the year by 
the Department of Geology and has been carried as near to completion 
as the limited space at present available will permit. The petroleums, 
their liquid derivatives and most of the vaselines were transferred to 
new, tall, oil-sample bottles in which the specimens appear to much 
better advantage than they did in the old style containers. These 
bottles have permitted a much more compact installation and thus 
room has been found for a large number of new specimens of crude 
petroleums and much material that it was previously necessary to 
store. The series as now exhibited consists of a large collection of 
petroleums of the United States, a collection of oil-bearing rocks and 
associated fossils, a collection of lubricating and other heavy, refined 
oils, a collection of vaseline and its preparations, a collection illustrat- 
ing applications of paraffin, some miscellaneous petroleum products, 
and a quantitative collection illustrating the varied products obtained 
from refining crude oil. The old order of installation of the petroleums 
principally according to color has been abandoned and a strictly geo- 
graphical arrangement substituted. The unit group of this arrangement 
is the oil field and each group has been provided with a large label 


i Pe = 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 227 


describing the field and in a few words and in simple language, the more 
important features of the oils of that field. The heavy oils and lubricat- 
ing oils are grouped according to method of manufacture into reduced 
oils, paraffin oils, etc., and according to their uses into spindle oils, 
engine oils, cylinder oils, etc. Groups of kerosenes, gasolines and 
naphthas are not shown for obvious reasons. The few specimens of 
these needed to logically cover the subject of petroleum and its deriv- 
atives are represented by bottles filled with a non-freezable mixture of 
alcohol and water. At the time the petroleum collection was removed 
from the west annex plans had been made for a rather complete collec- 
tion illustrating the applications of- paraffin. For such part of this 
material as had already been prepared room has been found in the 
cases. The display consist$ of paraffins, candles and a number of 
articles illustrating the applications of paraffin, especially its applica- 
tion to articles of ordinary household use. Although as it stands this 
collection is rather fragmentary, completion of the paraffin exhibit as 
planned is barred at present by lack of space. The vaseline exhibit 
has been transferred from the somewhat heterogeneous lot of bottles 
in which it was hitherto displayed to uniform, tall, oil-sample bottles 
of the kind used for the crude petroleums. The collection on exhibition 
contains examples of the materials from which vaseline is made, vas- 
elines of several grades, and vaseline preparations adapted to many 
toilet, pharmaceutical and other uses. A variety of objects in the 
preparation of which gasoline or kerosene has been used are also shown 
to illustrate the use of these materials in dyeing, painting, lacquering, 
and various other arts. A series of selected specimens of oils and their 
associated fossils is shown in sufficient number to illustrate the condi- 
tions under which the valuable deposits of petroleum occur. A com- 
plete quantitative exhibit illustrates the quantity of each product, 
intermediate or final, yielded by refining one barrel of petroleum. 
This formerly occupied several large cases but by avoiding unnecessary 
duplication a complete exhibit has been installed in one wall case. It 
has moreover been arranged in a more logical order, and thus the refin- 
ing process may be followed more readily than formerly. As it now 
stands a barrel representing one barrel of petroleum occupies one end 
of the case and the products of distillation the rest of the case. The 
lighter oils are placed in the upper part of the case and heavier oils 
and solids in the lower part. Large labels by the side of each specimen 
explain in simple language just what the specimen is, how it is prepared 
and what becomes of it. Individual labels have been printed and placed 
for all the specimens, and also group labels wherever such labels can be 


used to advantage. While the whole of the material formerly exhibited 


218 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


cannot be displayed at the present time, it is believed that the altera- 
tions in the method of installation are such that the educational value 
of the collection is greater than it was before. The collections of gold, 
silver and lead ores in Hall 34 which had been only temporarily rein- 
stalled after their removal from the west annex were given careful 
revision. Although no great changes were made, slight alterations in 
the positions of over a thousand specimens were instituted so as to 
improve the general appearance of the installation and aid especially 
by displaying in as good a light as possible the important features of 
the individual specimens. The placing of new labels was carried out at 
the same time. A number of specimens from the quartz-gold and 
copper mines of Alaska and a few other individual specimens were added 
to the exhibition series in this Hall. The collections of alkalies, abrasives 
and allied material in Hall 31 were cleaned and more or less rearranged 
in such a way as to secure the best illumination. This involved in a 
few instances the interchange of sections of the collection, but prin- 
cipally was accomplished by a rather tedious placing of the individual 
specimens in many positions and at many angles until the best position 
had been found for each specimen. Considerable rearrangement of 
the abrasives collection was also required.to make room for a recently 
acquired collection of artificial corundum. An Australian coal column 
was installed in Hall 33 and encased in glass to insure its protection. 
In Hall 59 the contents of two cases were rearranged and condensed 
in order to devote one to the exhibition exclusively of the fine series 
of fossil mammals collected in 1910 from the Uintah basin. The 
collection as now exhibited is much the most complete and repre- 
sentative of the mammals of the lower Uintah formation ever shown. 
It includes twenty-four skulls and much other skeletal material. The 
types of one new genus and four new species recently described by 
the Assistant Curator of Paleontology form a part of the series. 
Two models of early forms of iron-smelting furnaces were built 
in the Department work rooms and placed on exhibition. These 
models are part of a series showing the development of the blast 
furnace and supplement the modern blast furnace already on ex- 
hibition. One of the models represents the stone-stack cold-blast 
furnace as it was developed during the first half of the roth century. 
It consists of a pyramidal stone furnace 8 inches square at the base 
and 12 inches high. The working arch at the base which faces the front 
of the model shows the tymp and dam in use at that time. The two 
tuyere arches at the side show the fire-clay tuyeres entering the furnace. 
At the top of the furnace are shown the charging doors. To the right 
of the furnaces limestone cliff rises to the level of the furnace top, and

a roadway on the top of this bluff is continued to the furnace top by a 
wooden bridge on which appears a man transporting a load of ore to 
be fed into the furnace through the open charging doors. At the right 
of the model the blowing engine appears with the dam and water 
wheel to drive them. These engines are two wooden tubs one inch in 
diameter with a third of the same size above for an air reservoir. The 
iron piston rods are driven by a very primitive type of wooden walking- 
beam which in turn is operated through a shaft by a gearing upon 
the circumference of a water wheel. This wheel is a breast wheel 3 
inches in diameter and 1 inch wide and represents upon the scale of the 
model, %4 inch to the foot, a wheel of about 12 to 15 horse power. The 
wheel has an iron shaft turning in iron boxes, an iron spider and wooden 
buckets. The dam and retaining walls are built of limestone and in 
part of wooden planks, while the mill race is built of wooden plank 
backed apparently by earth well turfed. At the extreme right of the 
model a small log cabin is built over the mill race. Around the furnace 
and blowing engines a stone-paved court is placed, while the region 
around the mill race and tail race to and from the wheel 1s a hillside 
covered with imitative grass, bushes and trees. The channels to and 
from the water wheel contain a liquid resembling water. The water 
wheel is very carefully balanced and the journals and bearings so care- 
fully constructed that when the ‘“‘water”’ is allowed to run over the 
dam the wheel can turn and operate the blowing engines. In operat- 
ing, a concealed pump takes the water from the tail race and delivers 
it to the upper level so that whenever the pump runs, the water wheel 
turns and operates the blowing engines. The slight power required 
for this purpose is, however, not available in the present building. The 
second model built and put on exhibition represents a Catalian Forge 
as it was operated at the close of the 18th century. This model is 30 
inches long and 14 inches high, and is upon a scale of 1% inch to the 
foot. It consists of a building, a forge, a hammer and a blowing device. 
Of the building three stone walls are shown and rather elaborate roof 
timbers. The forge, but little more elaborate than a blacksmith’s fire, 
occupies a space of 134 by 2 inches inside the building and against one 
wall. The rest of the space inside the walls is nearly filled by a great 
wooden hammer and its iron-capped stone anvil. The hammer con- 
sists of a wooden beam pivoted at its center and movable by a lifting 
and tripping device operated by a water wheel not shown. On the 
opposite end is a hatchet-shaped iron head. Outside the building is 
shown a trompe, a water-actuated device for producing a blast of air 
to force combustion in the forge. As here shown the trompe consists of 
a device fed by a wooden canal leading water from a brook at a high 


220 FreLpD MusrEum oF NATURAL History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


level. From the bottom of this canal two hollow logs drop vertically 
to a wind chest in which air entrapped by the water falling through the 
hollow logs is collected. From this wind chest the air is conducted to 
the forge by hollow logs, leather and iron pipe, and a sheet copper 
nozzle or tuyere. In the laboratory of vertebrate paleontology atten- 
tion has been chiefly given to preparing the series of Uintah fossil 
mammals collected in 1910. This series has now been practically all 
prepared. The following specimens were worked out during the year: 
Two skulls and one lower jaw of the low-ground ungulate Metarhinus 
riparius; one skull of the closely allied Metarhinus cristatus; two skulls 
and one nearly complete skeleton of 'the large river titanothere Doli- 
chorhinus longiceps; a skull of the new species Mesatirhinus superior; a 
skull of the new genus Rhadinorhinus; one skull and two pairs of lower 
jaws of the early rhinoceros Amynodon; an incomplete skull of the 
great horned amblypod Eobasileus; one of the nearly allied Uintatherium; 
two lower jaws of the small cursorial mammal Triplopus; an incomplete 
skull of the archaic and little known Stylinodon; and a large and well- 
preserved skull of the broad-headed Crocodilus. All of these skulls 
or skeletal portions where desirable have been mounted with metal 
supports on standard bases with the exception of the skeleton of Doli- 
chorhinus which was mounted in half relief in plaster preparatory to 
installing it in a special floor case now in process of construction. The 
specimens thus prepared and those of the same region worked out 
previously afforded the Assistant Curator of Paleontology material. 
upon which a description of the fossil-bearing horizons of the Uintah 
formations and a description of a new subfamily, one new genus and 
four new specimens of titanotheres were prepared and published during 
the year. Opportunity was also found for preparation in the laboratory 
of vetebrate paleontology of some additional material collected on 
previous expeditions. This included among material collected by the 
expedition of 1906, a complete skeleton and additional skull of Steneofiber 
barbouri, two skulls of Pleurolicus leptophrys and portions of skeletons 
of allied species, and from material collected in 1905 a skeleton of Mery- 
coidodon gracilis and partial skeletons or skulls of [schyromys cristatus, 
Aceratherium sp. and Protoceras celer. Work upon the study series of 
the mineral collection was carried on at intervals as opporunity could 
be found and the groups of carbonates and oxides were fully rearranged. 
Individual trays were provided for the specimens and they were labeled 
and grouped according to species and localities. The chemical labora- 
tory with apparatus and equipment was moved from Jefferson Avenue 
to Lake Avenue during the year. The new quarters occupied contain 
570 square feet of well-lighted space and are provided with water, 


JAN., 1913. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 221 


electricity, compressed air and steam. The space is divided into two 
rooms of about equal size and it has thus been possible to install the 
hood and furnace in one room and the balances and reagents in another. 
The hood has been provided with a sink and a 1o-inch draft pipe. A 
Weisnegg furnace 7 inches by 4 inches by 3 inches provided with gas 
and compressed air furnishes sufficient heat for ordinary ignitions and 
minor assays. Draft for this purpose is provided by a 3-inch pipe sur- 
rounded by an 8-inch pipe, open at both ends for prevention of over- 
heating. A blowpipe desk and small still for distilling water are in- 
stalled in the same room with the hood and furnace. With the facilities 
afforded some quantitative analyses have been made during the year 
and many qualitative ones. The quantitative analyses included one of 
a Chinese iron, two of Chinese glazes and a pottery body. In addi- 
tion to chemical work it has been found necessary owing to lack of space 
in the Museum building to carry on some mechanical work in the 
laboratory. The two blast furnace models were built there and some 
of the work of preparing the petroleum collection performed. In the 
Department of Zoology a small number of storage cans have been 
installed. Space for this purpose is becoming limited and incoming 
collections are cared for with increasing difficulty. Arrangements 
are being made for storage of skulls of large mammals in discarded 
exhibition cases and in various ways. Temporary and more or less 
inconvenient methods are necessary to maintain the collection so that 
valuable material may be safe and reasonably accessible. The skin 
dresser has been occupied during the year with skins requiring special 
preparatory to mounting, among which were certain large skins, 
such as rhinoceros and hippopotamus, which it had not heretofore 
been possible to remove from pickle. Four large habitat groups of 
American birds produced under the Field-Sprague Ornithology Fund 
have been completed and successfully installed in a handsome quadrip- 
artite case of the style previously used for such exhibits. The principal 
birds shown are (1) the Northern Loon, (2) the Great Blue Heron, (3) 
the Whooping and Sandhill Cranes, and (4) the Golden Eagle. These 
groups are, without doubt, better in workmanship and reproduction of 
natural conditions of environment than any previously produced. 
They are all of the highest class, but the group of whooping cranes is 
especially interesting, not only from the beauty of its accessories, but 
also on account of the rarity of the birds which are practically on the 
verge of extinction. In the Golden Eagle group the nest contains the 
eggs of the species, but they will ultimately be replaced by a pair of 
“nestling”? birds. Another large bird group is well toward completion 
showing a number of interesting pelagic species which nest on Laysan 


222 FreLD Museum oF NaTurAL History — REports, VoL. IV. 


Island, in the mid-Pacific Ocean. The material for this group was 
obtained through co-operation with the University of Iowa and it will 
include a striking background painted from original sketches by artist 
Corwin who accompanied the Iowa expedition. In addition to work on 
habitat groups, the systematic collection of mounted birds in Hall 26 
was installed in new cases and entirely relabeled. Two important 
mammal groups, both with painted backgrounds, have been completed 
during the year. These are the group of Sonoran Grizzly Bears and the 
Beaver group. The scene represented in the Beaver group is that of 
woodland and lake in the practically primeval forest on the estate of 
Mr. Cyrus H. McCormick (through whose courtesy the specimens were 
secured) near Champion, Michigan, where the material for the group 
was obtained. <A group of Afr can Buffalo consisting of five individuals 
is being prepared for the Museum by Mr. Carel E. Akeley. Work on 
a group of American Bison has commenced and other groups of birds 
and mammals have been planned. Owing to the large amount of time 
spent on group work, additions to the systematic series of birds and 
mammals have been confined to some 30 birds and three mammals. 
Among the latter is an interesting marsupial, the Banded Australian 
Anteater Myrmecobius fasciatus. Mr. Heim, the Museum taxidermist 
in California, has mounted during the year 128 fishes. He also reports 
having in preparation 43 additional specimens. Taxidermist Heim 
has also mounted a crab and crawfish group for a case 6’ x 2%’ and has 
secured the necessary accessory material. One shark or sawfish 13 feet 
in length and several fishes more than 3 feet in length are included in 
this group. In some cases there are from 6 to 10 examples of one species 
intended to be used later for groups. The assistant in the Division of 
Entomology has given considerable time during the year to mak- 
ing life-history groups of insects, three of which have been completed 
and placed on exhibition. The groups so far completed, as well as 
those under way, with one exception, represent local forms of the order 
embracing the butterflies and moths. They are of interest primarily 
because they illustrate the various stages in the development of an 
insect having a complete metamorphosis. In the Division of Osteology 
560 skulls were cleaned for the Division of Mammalogy; 27 skeletons 
cleaned for the unmounted collection of comparative osteology; 4 skele- 
tons repaired and remounted; 5 skeletons mounted for the Systematic 
collection of osteology and 5 skulls cleaned and mounted for the collec- 
tion of craniology. 

Printine.— The Printing Office shows unusually good results. It 
is satisfactory to report that not only has there been an increase in the 
number of labels printed, and all accumulated copy treated, but the

stage has now been reached where it is possible to keep up with incom- 
ing work. During the year the following work has been accomplished:

TROYES. 


( Triticum sativum ). 


A grain of Troyes Wheat, standard of the Troy Grain, 
Troy weight. In mediaeval times nearly all towns, or 
seats of commercial activity, had their own standards 
of weight and measure. Inthe early part of the four- 
teenth century the ‘‘Pound of Troy” was accepted in Eng- 
land, and many other places, for weighing bread, silk, 
gold, silver and jewelry; it is now used for gold and 
silver only. One kernel of the wheat of Troyes equals 
one grain troy.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 
19x35 


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, 1913. 

A review of the year’s activities, while not without the broader and 
more striking interest of expedition research and survey in various parts 
of the world, shows that the labor performed, the material progress made, 
has been very largely within the walls of the Institution in continuance 
and enlargement of the plans of the past two years in preparing exhibi- 
tion material for the New Building. This work not only includes the 
installation of material that has not been on exhibition but the re-instal- 
lation of exhibited material and the re-labeling of the latter. So well 
have the different departments devoted their energies to this task that 
the orderly and systematic physical appearance of the Museum has 
ceased to elicit commendation from visitors or contemporaries. The 
great number of installed new cases for which space is continually de- 
manded from the already crowded floor area has interlocked the installa- 
tion of departments and divisions to a degree that must be confusing to 
visitors, as it certainly is most unsatisfactory to the management. If 
the pressure for space continues, as it seems likely it will do, some por- 
tions of the Museum must be closed off as an improvised warehouse 
where cases can be stored without any relation to passage-ways or any. 
regard for the convenience of visitors. In some of the courts and halls 
the circulation provisions have been reduced to two-feet passage-ways 
which really almost prohibits an inspection of the contents of the cases. 

The Joseph N. Field Ethnological expedition to the South Sea 
Islands concluded its three years’ studies and collections, and Dr. Lewis, 
the head of the expedition, has returned and for several months has been 
engaged in cataloguing, labeling and installing this most prized collec- 
tion. It is now quite apparent that the great extent of this collection 
will not permit its complete installation for several years, though from 
its abundance a notable representation will be on view within the coming 
year. In addition to the fund provided by Mr. Joseph N. Field for the 
field work of this South Pacific expedition, a further and large sum was 
contributed by Mr. Field for the purchase of an important collection of 


279 


280 Frerp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


masks from New Britain and ethnological material from German New 
Guinea. 

The South American Zodlogical expedition is still in the field, being 
last reported as in Southern Brazil with splendid results. The consign- 
ments of material from the field reach the Museum at intervals of about 
three months, and, as will be seen from the report on the Depart- 
ment of Zodlogy made elsewhere, is giving the greatest satisfaction to 
the department. 

The Museum is the grateful beneficiary of the results from a private 
expedition to British East Africa and adjacent territories under Mr. 
Brent Altscheler of Louisville, Kentucky, a hunter, a lover of science, and 
a friend of the Museum. 

The announcement of the Hon. R. M. Barnes of Lacon, Illinois, that 
he had constituted Field Museum of Natural History legatee under his 
will for his collection of more than 24,000 birds’ eggs was received by the 
authorities of the Museum with the greatest satisfaction, for not only is 
this act regarded as a high testimonial to the worthiness of the Museum 
and an evidence of extending confidence in its purposes and perform- 
ances, but it is of a great value to the Division of Ornithology to be as- 
sured that eventually this great collection will be added to its resources. 

The progress made by the N. W. Harris Public School Extension dur- 
ing the year, and the interest that the public and the Chicago schools 
system have manifested in this exhibition of collections from the Muse- 
um in the public schools, have encouraged the founder in this philan- 
thropy, and inspired with zeal the organization which is dispensing it. 
The preliminary stages in the difficult task of getting this undertaking 
in full operation have been passed; the experimental period is practically 
over, and when a few details, yet to be arranged with the Superintendent 
of Schools have been determined upon, the regular distribution of these 
cabinets will be begun. The force of scientific men and preparators 
under the guidance of the efficient curator of this foundation have a 
great many cabinets and cases completed, and recently, at the request 
of the Council for Library and Museum Extension, made an exhibition 
of a number of the collections at the Art Institute, which was very well 
attended and very cordially commended. 

MaintTeNance.— The cost of maintenance for the year amounted to 
$170,000, which was $5,000 less than the amounted authorized by the 
Board of Trustees for the year ending December 31, 1913. The total 
amount expended for all purposes was $237,100, being $1,000 less than 
the previous year. The difference between the cost of maintenance 
and the actual amount expended is accounted for by special appropria- 
tions for the purchase of collections, and the cost of extensive repairs to 


JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 281 


the roof of the building. The building itself can be considered as being 
in good repair, yet the overhanging cornices which are rapidly de- 
teriorating occasion a certain amount of anxiety and are promptly 
removed as conditions demand. During the year the entire building 
was thoroughly examined. by an expert assigned for this inspection by 
D. H. Burnham & Company, the architects. The report states that 
all brick work is in first class shape, as is also the structural steel in the 
columns and girders. The staff work throughout the interior of the 
building was found to be in good condition. The skylights were also 
reported as being in good state. A special request was made that this 
expert examine the floor loads throughout the building, and it is gratify- 
ing that the report states that much care had been exercised in this 
respect and where an unusually heavy load is concentrated the floor had 
been thoroughly reinforced in each instance. 

Lecture Courses.— The lecture courses have been particularly inter- 
esting and well attended. They have been participated in by dis- 
tinguished scholars and students in the various branches of the natural 
sciences, and acknowledgment is here made of the generosity and good 
will which this participation manifests toward the Museum.

JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 285 


Publications were received from 808 individuals and institutions. 
A special effort was made to increase the useful collections of separata. 
Requests for reciprocation with equivalent literature were made to all 
authors who are receiving the publications of the Museum, and who 
had not done so hitherto. The response to date is gratifying, some 
four hundred titles having been received. The securing of these ad- 
ditions, the effecting of new exchanges, the obtaining of missing parts 
to fill in or to complete sets, involved the writing of approximately 
1,000 letters. From the translators and commentators, Mr. and-Mrs. 
Herbert Clark Hoover, London and New York City, was received 
a copy of Georgius Agricola De Re Metallica, translated from the 
first Latin edition of 1556, with biographical introduction, annotations, 
etc. With copies of the original editions of 1621 and 1657 in the 
library, this gift of an accurate translation of this classic in miner- 
alogical literature is highly prized. The library was also the recipient 
of a copy of the second volume of the J. Pierpont Morgan Catalogue 
of Porcelains. Other gifts of value received were from Mr. G. R. 
Agassiz, Cambridge, Mass.; Mr. William D. Boyce of Chicago; Mr. 
Arthur De Selm, Kankakee, Illinois; Mr. Martin A. Ryerson, Chicago; 
Mr. William Schaus, Washington, D. C.; Mr. Charles D. Walcott, 
Washington, D. C.; Imperial Botanical Gardens, St. Petersburg, 
Russia; Japan Society, London, England; Royal Academy of Science, 
Vienna, Austria; Ecole des Langues Orientales Vivantes, Paris, France; 
The Natural History Museum of Hamburg, Germany; the Natural 
History Society of Hannover, Germany; U. S. Department of Com- 
merce and Labor; the Smithsonian Institution and Yale University 
Library,, New Haven. A notable accession of the year was the 
literature received with the collection of Ward-Coonley meteorites. 
The late Mr. Ward had collected over three thousand titles, 1,250 new 
to this Library, covering the years 1620-1906. This addition to the 
literature already on the Museum shelves places this library in the 
front rank on this particular subject. Among the most important 
purchases were: Le Coq, Chotscho; Gorer & Blacker, Chinese porce- 
lain and hard stones; Dufour, Le Bayon d’Angkor Thom bas- 
reliefs; Brabourne & Chubb, Birds of South America; Giebel & Liche, 
Mammalia, 1874-1913; Martius & Spix, Reise in Brasilien, 1817-20. 

The books, periodicals and pamphlets bound during the year number 
1,021. The proper sequence of the accessions has had to be sacrified to 
make more readily accessible the books most in demand. Two cases 
discarded for installation purposes by the Departments were fitted 
with shelves and placed in the General Reading Room and filled with 
works of a general character. All duplicate material has been packed 


286 Fretp Museum or Natura. History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


in boxes. There have been written and inserted in the various catalogues 
22,570 cards. 

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING AND LABELING. —— In no previous 
year in the history of the Department of Anthropology have so many 
cases been installed with their full complement of labels. At least 
150 cases have been fully labeled. It is confidently believed that no 
more adequate labeling could have been accomplished than that 
which now prevails throughout the Chinese and Philippine collections 
recently installed. For the Chinese collection alone over 2,600 labels 
have been printed. There have been entered in the inventory books of 
the Department nearly 3,000 catalogue cards, which were about equally 
divided between the Blackstone Chinese Collection and the Field South 
Pacific Islands Collection. The Chinese archeological collection has 
been completely catalogued and the cataloguing of the Tibetan material 
is well advanced. Assistant Curator Lewis has written approximately 
3,000 catalogue cards of the South Pacific Islands collections, which are 
ready to be entered in the inventory books. These have not yet been 
turned over to the Cataloguer, but are retained for further reference in 
connection with the installation of the material which they chronicle. 

The cataloguing of the specimens of all accessions received during 
the year in the Department of Botany is complete to date, and 31,624 
sheets of the larger accessions of previous years have also been cata- 
logued. All new installations have received their labels so far as they 
have been secured from the printer. Copy has been written for 1,033 
labels, of which 290 are still in the hands of the printer. 

The principal work of cataloguing performed in the Department of 
Geology was that of the Ward-Coonley meteorite collection. All of 
this collection to the number of 1,661 specimens has been carefully 
catalogued. All other material received during the year has likewise 
been fully catalogued. The material so catalogued includes 784 econo- 
mic specimens, 1,034 of minerals and about 4oo of fossils. For the card 
catalogue of vertebrate paleontology 72 descriptive cards were written. 
Books to the number of 282 and 1,355 pamphlets were added to the 
Department library during the year, and 1,004 cards were added to the 
card catalogue of the library, making a total of 3,618 cards now com- 
prising the Departmental library catalogue. To the Department photo- 
graphic albums 185 prints have been added since the last report, making 
a total of 2,685 photographs now contained in these albums. All of 
these photographs are fully labeled. The preparation of labels for the 
exhibition series during the year has principally been concerned with 
replacing labels of the old buff cardboard type by those of current type. 
In connection with this work constant revision of the labels has been 


JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 287 


carried on and any improvements deemed desirable in the text or style 
of labels have been made. Series which have been labeled in this way 
in full during the year include the asbestos collection, the collections of 
Lake Superior and Manhattan Island rocks, ores of copper, zinc, iron 
and many minor metals, the collections of concretions, stalactites, rock 
textures, etc., the glaciated slabs and other specimens in Alcove 103 and 
the soda collection. Many of these collections contain descriptive 
labels which were rewritten in order that the information given might 
be as fresh and up-to-date as possible, or improved in form. For this 
purpose or for newly installed material 65 descriptive labels were written 
during the year. Newly installed material was provided with labels as 
fast as received during the year and practically all specimens now on 
exhibition are provided with labels of the latest Museum pattern. New 
series labeled during the year include the graphite collection, several 
series illustrating uses of metals, a series of Patagonian fossils, of mis- 
cellaneous fossil mammals and a large number of invertebrate fossils. 
The series of blast furnace models, Hall 34, was also supplied with fully 
descriptive labels. The total number of labels prepared during the year 
was 3,215, of which 2,902 were printed and installed. 

The Curator of Zodlogy reports that cataloguing has proceeded in 
this Department as usual and all accessions received during the year 
have been properly entered. In the classified card catalogue much 
progress has been made both in Ornithology and Mammalogy. Cata- 
logue cards to the number of 350 have been written for mammals which 
represent more than 1,000 entries. For birds 400 cards have been 
written and 22 distribution maps have been labeled, the former num- 
bering 1,200 enteries. The card check list of the specimens of South 
American mammals has been increased to approximately 800 cards. 
New labels were provided for the serial collection of exotic birds. The 
Costa Rican collection of fishes obtained by Assistant Curator Meek has 
been partially catalogued. 

The year’s work in the Museum on catalogues and inventories is 
shown in detail below:

Department of. Anthropology were those resulting from the Joseph N.

Field Expedition to the South Pacific. These not only include the 
material collected by Dr. Lewis, but several thousand specimens selected 
and purchased by the Curator from a dealer in Hamburg. As a result 
of the expedition and the purchase mentioned, the Department now 
possesses one of the most important and extensive collections of South 
Pacific ethnology. It is not possible at this time to state accurately the 
total number of specimens, but it is believed that it will exceed 20,000. 
The large number of specimens from most of the islands of Melanesia 
makes the collection of supreme importance. The collection from the 
Admiralty Islands is probably unique, for it not only comprises a series 
of fine carvings and a large series of specimens illustrating all phases of 
ordinary material culture of the islanders, but more than 30, carved 
beds, 20 huge carved drums, and 60 great bowls with highly decorated 
handles. From the Baining Mountains, New Britain, are no less than 
rr ceremonial masks, unmatched in character. The series of prepared 
skulls from New Hebrides runs into the hundreds; of prepared skulls from 
New Guinea there are more than a thousand. Collections from the 
Kaiserin Augusta region of German: New Guinea are especially rich 
and beautiful, comprising among other examples 4 feather masks 15 feet 
in height. The series of carved drums and house ornaments from New 
Caledonia adds to the effectiveness of an already rich collection from 
this interesting island. While the bulk of material acquired during the 
year must be credited to Mr. Field, yet the Department has made 
other important accessions. An especially notable acquisition is that 
of 157 ancient and wonderful bone carvings of intrinsic interest, assem- 
bled in China by that distinguished Chinese scholar and missionary 
Mr. F. H. Chalfant of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It is Dr. Laufer’s 
opinion that these objects rank among the most ancient relics known 
of Chinese antiquity and that they were originally used for purposes of 
divination. The oracles and decisions given in reply to them by the 
seers are carved into the surface of the bone and present the oldest form 
of Chinese writing now extant; hence their remarkable interest. Among 
the carvings represented are alligators of a surprisingly realistic form, 
dragons, tortoises, snakes, and replicas of weapons, bells, and imple- 
ments; again there are imitations of shell money and specimens of 
ancient cowry-shells actually used in lieu of money. Somewhat similar 
collections are to be found in the museums of Pittsburgh, Edinburgh, 
London, and Berlin, but according to Mr. Chalfant this institution has 
secured the finest and most valuable series ever taken from China. This 
interesting and valuable acquisition was made possible through the 
generosity of Mrs. T. B. Blackstone. To the generosity of Prince Dam- 
rong, brother of the late King of Siam, the Museum is indebted for the

gift of four Buddhist votive offerings of clay stamped with Buddhist 
subjects, excavated on the site of an ancient temple in Trang province, 
Siam. These objects are of great value inasmuch as the Museum pos- 
sesses similar specimens from China and Tibet. In connection with this 
gift the Museum is indebted to Dr. C. S. Braddock of New York, through 
whose mediation the tablets were forwarded to the Museum. Mr. 
Gotfryd Anderson of Chicago and of the China Inland Mission presented 
to the Museum a Tibetan ink-drawing on yellow silk, mounted on 
Chinese brocade, representing Buddha surrounded by deities and saints. 
Of acquisitions made by purchase the two most important pertain to 
China. One is an excellent specimen of the parade uniform of an official 
in attendance at the imperial palace of Peking. It dates from the 18th 
century, and is in an unusually good state of preservation. The uniform 
is of silk almost solidly embroidered with heavy gold thread which is in 
practically perfect condition. The steel helmet of the uniform bears 
chased dragons in gold and is decorated with inlaid kingfisher feathers 
and painted eagle pinions. The uniform is accompanied with bow case 
and quiver, and studded with gilt brass ornaments, and the chest in 
which the whole is packed when not in use. From the British Museum 
the Museum purchased a color-print reproduction of the famous paint- 
ing attributed to Ku K‘ai-chi. A copy of O. Franke’s book on Agricul- 
‘ture and Sericulture in China was acquired to make use of the or 
plates for exhibition purposes. These embrace an interesting series 
of wood cuts executed in 1210, of which but one copy is thus far 
known, found by Dr. Laufer in a bookshop of Tokyo and now de- 
posited in the John Crerar Library. The whole series of plates is 
shown on a screen, individual labels being printed on the mats, and 
affords a good idea of the various stages of farming and the pro- 
cesses of weaving. ;

The total increase of the organized herbarium during the year 
amounted to 41,401 specimens. 

Several interesting and valuable accessions were received by the 
Department of Geology. Of especial interest were two gold nuggets 
obtained in the California gold fields in 1850, presented by Mr. William J. 
Chalmers; also a quantity of silver nuggets from Lake Superior. A fine 
series of lead minerals and mercury ores was presented by Christopher 
Murphy. Six slabs of standard museum size of Georgia marble illus- 
trating different varieties of this marble were presented by the Georgia 
Marble Company; 13 slabs of Vermont marble, similarly prepared, were 
presented by the Vermont Marble Company; and three slabs of Cana- 
dian marble, likewise of standard size, by the Dominion Marble Company. 
A large mass weighing 400 pounds, of Versailles, Missouri, fire clay 
was presented by the W. S. Dickey Clay Manufacturing Company, 
and six varieties of pottery and other clays from various localities by 
the Land and Industrial Department of the Southern Railway. A 
series of 14 specimens illustrating a natural change of pyrite to hematite, 


JAN., I914. ANNUAL ReEpoRT OF THE DIRECTOR. 295 


as seen at Copete, Mexico, presented by Francis C. Nicholas, was of 
much interest, as was also a series of ro specimens illustrating the con- 
centration of iron ores by washing, presented by the Oliver Mining 
Company. The Joseph Dixon Crucible Company presented an interest- 
ing series of 24 specimens illustrating uses of graphite, and the H. W. 
Johns-Manville Company 19 specimens illustrating the uses of asbestos. 
The Heath & Milligan Manufacturing Company presented 13 specimens 
of buhrstones and pigments. A series of 10 specimens of lead and 
silver ores from a new locality in California was presented by Dr. T. A. 
Dumont, and a large specimen of allanite used as an ore of rare earths, 
by A. C. Richards. A fine example of manufactured Monel metal was 
presented by the Biddle Hardware Company. About 1,000 specimens 
of varieties of agate and jasper from Oregon were presented by C. H. 
Marsh, and a series of about 50 ores and minerals, chiefly from Mon- 
tana and illustrating ores of historic interest, was received from J. L. 
Rosenberger. Prof. R. D. Salisbury presented several specimens of 
obsidian nodules from Patagonia and some diamondiferous sand from 
Brazil, secured on his recent trip to South America. Through the kind- 
ness of Prof. Salisbury also 225 specimens of copper ores and concentrates 
were received from the Braden Copper Company, Rancagua, Chile. 
This suite was very complete in representing all phases of occurrence 
of the ore and many varieties of ore. By exchange with the University 
of California a valuable accession was received in a skeleton of Canis 
diuruis, an extinct wolf from the asphalt beds near Los Angeles, Califor- 
nia. By exchange with the United States National Museum a section 
of the Perryville meteorite was obtained and one of the Nakhla meteorite 
was obtained in a similar manner from the Egyptian Geological Survey. 
Specimens of the Tepl and St. Germain meteorites were also obtained 
by exchange, and some specimens of minerals, a trilobite, and a skull of 
the fossil camel Stenomylus, the latter from Amherst College. The most 
important purchase was that of the Davis Mountains, Texas, meteorite, 
which was obtained entire. The entire mass of the Pickens County, 
Georgia, meteorite was also purchased, a section of the St. Michel 
meteorite and an unusual specimen of pollucite from Maine. 

The Department of Zodlogy received extensive accessions in all of 
its several divisions. The most important accessions of the year were 
those received from the Museum collectors in South America, which is 
shown by the fact that they contained 38 new species and subspecies; 
28 of birds and 10 of mammals. These have been described in Museum 
publications and the types have materially added to the value of the 
collections. In addition to these a very valuable collection of humming- 
birds, numbering 591 specimens and representing about 386 species and 


296 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vo. IV. 


subspecies, was obtained by purchase. This is a part of the great pri- 
vate collection of humming-birds belonging to the famous French 
naturalist, M. Adolph Boucard, and is especially important since many of 
the specimens are cotypes or paratypes of species described by him. 
Mention should also be made of a small but valuable collection of South 
American birds and mammals purchased from a dealer in Merida, Vene- 
zuela, containing 6 mammals and 235 bird skins, together with 42 
humming-birds’ nests and eggs, several species being very rare. Mr. 
John M. Studebaker of South Bend, Indiana, presented the Museum 
with a pair of American Elk, or Wapiti, which he killed a number of 
years ago in Colorado, and Mr. G. F. Steele of Chicago gave the Museum 
a number of mounted heads of Deer, Caribou, Goats, and one of the 
American Bison. <A notable addition to the Osteological collection 
is the skeleton of Cenolestes obscurus from Columbia, which was 
mounted and installed and is the only known example on exhibition 
in any museum in the world. In the Division of Entomology an impor- 
tant addition was a collection of butterflies and moths from Key Is- 
lands. Among this lot were six specimens, three males and three fe- 
males, of the magnificent butterfly Troides priamus poseidon. These 
will form a welcome addition to the exhibit series. Chiefly from expedi- 
tions, 649 fishes were added to the collections in the Division of Ichthy- 
ology and several hundreds through exchange, mention of which is else- 
where in this report. 

EXPEDITIONS AND FIELD Work.— The Assistant Curator of African and 
Melanesian Ethnology, Dr. A. B. Lewis, returned to resume his duties in 
the Museum last June, having completed his four years’ pilgrimage 
in the South Pacific among the Melanesian Islands, in charge of the 
Joseph N. Field South Pacific Islands Expedition. The early months of 
the winter Dr. Lewis spent in Dutch New Guinea, traversing the north 
coast as far east as Humboldt’s Bay. From this point he proceeded to 
Batavia, Java, where he spent two weeks packing up the collections and 
studying in the museum in that city. He returned to Europe via 
Singapore, Rangoon, and India, where he visited the chief museums and 
the chief centers of ethnologic interest. May was spent visiting the 
principal museums of Italy, Austria, Germany, Holland, and England. 
About 12,000 specimens were secured by this expedition. If to these 
are added the number of specimens secured by purchase and from the 
Curator’s expedition into Melanesia, the total should approximate 
20,000. Assistant Curator Owen returned to the Museum in May 
after a visit of several months among the Hopi Indians of Arizona, As 
a result of this expedition the Museum secured 50 boxes of additional 
specimens to be added to the already existing Hopi collection, all of 


JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 297 


which work has been made possible through the generosity of Mr. 
Stanley McCormick. Mr. Owen was especially fortunate on this 
occasion in securing a large number of old specimens of a sacred nature 
which heretofore had not been attainable. The number of specimens 
exceed 800, including, for the first time, a complete set of all known 
gourd vessels used by the Hopi; a complete set of earthenware vessels 
used for household or ceremonial purposes; some 50 tihus or decorative 
wooden images, either decided variants from those already in the 
collection or entirely new to the collection; many fine old Katcina masks 
and headdresses; a complete series of objects illustrating the manu- 
facture of shell beads; textiles, which include garments in the loom and 
every variety of weave known to the Hopi; complete sets of weaving 
‘implements; entire set of baskets and basket material from the Third 
Mesa; ceremonial paraphernalia, both for altars and costumes; raw 
materials, foodstuffs, etc. While in the Southwest the Assistant Cura- 
tor secured identifications and additional information for about 50 tihus, 
some of which have been on exhibition in the Museum since its founda- 
tion. Many old masks were also identified and information obtained 
for their proper labeling. Over 150 photographs were made of winter 
‘ceremonials, especially of Katcina dances held only at that time of the 
year. Measurements and photographs: were made of a typical Hopi 
spring, as well as of wooden figurines of certain Hopi divinities, both 
for purposes of reproduction in the Hopi Halls. Early in the year the 
Curator was granted a month’s leave of absence to accept an invitation 
to deliver four lectures at Cambridge University, England. During 
this time he visited the museums of Hamburg and Berlin, and made a 
careful and exhaustive study of the East Indian Museum in London. 

The material results of the work of the Assistant Curator of the 
Division of Dendrology of last season reached the Museum early in 
the year. The collections comprise many hundred photographic 
negatives of trees, tree growth, and forest conditions and operations; 
215 tree trunks, ‘‘wheels,’’ and boards; 80 dried fruits, seeds, and-barks; 
885 herbarium specimens and 2,275 duplicates for exchange purposes. 
During the present year the Dendrologist has spent his time in prepara- 
tory work in the Department, making two short field trips only in Indiana 
where he procured several tree specimens and photographs, 125 her- 
barium specimens, and 300 duplicates for exchange. 

A journey made by the Curator of Geology to western Texas re- 
sulted in securing for the Museum an iron meteorite of a hitherto un- 
known fall. It is the largest individual specimen but one now in the 
Museum meteorite collection. The weight of this individual is 1,520 
pounds. Besides its large size, it is of interest for its marked orientation 


298 Firtp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. IV. 


and for containing an appreciable quantity of platinum. The Assistant 
Curator of Paleontology secured by a trip to Grovertown, Indiana, a 
well preserved skull and nearly complete lower jaw of the extinct giant 
beaver, Castoroides. By using previously obtained remains of this 
species in connection with this skull it 1s probable that a mounted 
skeleton of this rare and interesting animal can be prepared. The 
Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology collected 182 specimens 
of invertebrate fossils at Little Traverse Bay, Michigan. 

Field work in South America in the interest of the Department of 
Zoology was continued with excellent results. Through co-operation 
with a-Brazilian government expedition in charge of Roderic Crandall, 
the collectors in the field, M. P. Anderson and R. H. Becker, were enabled 
to reach, and work at small expense, regions difficult of access; namely, 
the upper parts of the Rio Branco and the Mountains of the Moon near 
the boundary between Brazil and British Guiana. Important collec- 
tions of birds and mammals were made and several fine examples of 
large mammals were obtained which will be used for habitat groups 
already planned. Mr. Anderson returned to the Museum in May, 
and Mr. Becker continued work in Brazil on the lower Amazon River 
and subsequently in the arid region of extreme eastern Brazil, in the 
Province of Ceara, whence he proceeded southward to Bahia and inland 
to the San Francisco River. The results of this work are mainly the 
acquisition of typical forms of vertebrate life, fresh material represent- 
ing species many of which were described by early explorers and ab- 
solutely essential to any accurate knowledge of the fauna. Mr. Ander- 
son, after a needed change in a northern climate, again entered the 
field, leaving here in October, commencing work in the little known 
Catatumbo region in northwestern Venezuela. An expedition to 
Alaska by Taxidermist Friesser proved highly successful. By permis- 
sion of the Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. Friesser secured four selected 
specimens of the Alaskan Moose, the skins and skeletons being carefully 
prepared. Samples of vegetation, photographs, and all needed acces- 
sories for a striking group of these animals were obtained, as well as 
desirable specimens of birds and the smaller mammals, including Alaskan 
Porcupines, Squirrels, Ptarmigan, Owls, etc. Some local field work was 
done by the Curator of Zodlogy including a short trip to Vilas County, 
Wisconsin, where photographs for studies in group work, and migration 
notes to be used in maps illustrating the range of various species, were 
secured. In addition to the expeditions named above mention is made 
of the African expedition undertaken by Mr. Brent Altscheler of Louis- 
ville, Kentucky, in the interest of the Department of Zodlogy, to whose 
generosity in this particular reference is made elsewhere in this report.

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT, AND PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT.— The capacity 
of the staff and the assistants in the Department of Anthropology 
has been fully tested this year, for besides the routine work an ex- 
traordinary amount of new work has been performed. Over 150 new 
cases have been placed on permanent exhibition, practically all of 
them fully and completely labeled. In addition to these, 15 standard 
cases installed in recent years have been rearranged, for such rearrange- 
ment seemed necessary on account of the acquisition of new material. 
More than 250 boxes, many of them of huge dimensions, have been 
unpacked and the contents assorted into temporary storage cases. 
All of this has required an extensive rearrangement and readjustment, 
but the time has now come when there is practically no room, outside 
the three small halls still reserved for Chinese and Tibetan material, 
for the display of new material except at the expense of material already 
installed. Borneo collections were installed in 9 cascs as follows: 4 Iban, 
2 Malay, 1 Milanan, 2 Murut, 1 Kayan, and 1 Klemantan. These, 
together with 2 cases of Andaman Island material and one of Nicobar 
installed this year, and a case of Malay Peninsula material representing 
the primitive culture of the Semang and Sakai, have been placed in Hall 
8 where they completely fill up the aisles and block the cases of prehis- 
toric pottery from the Southwest. That hall now, though one of the 
most prominently placed halls in the Department, is merely a confused 
storage hall. Practically the entire Javanese collection has been rein- 
stalled, which was necessary because most of it was installed in old and 
inadequate cases. This collection now occupies Hall 54. To provide 
adequate space in the East Annex for the completion of the Philippine 
collections and the rapidly expanding Chinese and Tibetan collections, 
other changes than those already noted were necessary. First, all the 
Melanesian material, except the large canoes suspended from the ceiling 


300 Fretp Museum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vor. IV. 


and the large house posts attached to the wall, was removed from Hall 
67 and transferred to the. West Annex, where it is no longer available to 
the public. Again, the entire contents of Hall 66, consisting of a dozen 
cases devoted to Polynesia, Micronesia, and so on, were transferred to 
-the West Annex. These collections also are no longer available to the 
public. But more serious was the enforced withdrawal from public 
exhibition of all the African collections, which now occupy a temporary 
resting place in a hall in the West Annex. While the Department has 
never maintained an expedition in Africa and while this African mate- 
rial has been acquired in an indirect and, consequently, more or less 
unsatisfactory manner, yet, from certain regions, the collections are of 
importance and have distinctive value, and they certainly deserve a 
better fate than to be placed in storage. The Philippine collections are 
now completely installed and occupy Halls 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 54, and 
57. During the year 15 Philippine cases were reinstalled — a necessity 
because of the acquisition of new material— and the following cases 
were installed for the first time: 1 Batak, 1 Ilocano, 1 Mangyan, 9g 
Ilongot, 4 Ifugao, 1 Tingian, 1 Igorot, 1 Amburayan Igorot, r Guinnan, 
6 Mandayan, 1 Bagobo, and 1 Pulunan. Besides, special cases have 
been prepared for certain spirit houses, planting sticks, and other ob- 
jects requiring cases of special dimensions. A large group, to occupy 
a case 12 feet square, showing various phases of activity of the Bagobo 
represented by 7 figures modeled from life, is near completion and will 
soon be ready for installation. In the Northwest Coast Halls, 4 cases 
have been added—3 Salish and 1 Chilcotin—of material presented to the 
Museum by Mr. Homer E. Sargent. Besides these, 3 cases of Thompson 
River material were reinstalled. To the Southwest Section have been 
added 2 new cases of pottery from the Hopi pueblos, 1 case of Navaho 
masks, 2 cases of Apache costumes, a case of Colorado River baskets, 
and 3 cases of decorated pueblo shields and buffalo robes. The installa- 
tion of this material has necessitated a certain amount of rearrangement 
in Halls 2,3, and 7. Every case in the Gem Room containing ethnologic 
material has been subjected to a careful revision, classification, and 
labeling. In the Chinese Section installation has progressed in a satis- 
factory and efficient manner. There have been 69 new cases installed, 
besides three special exhibits requiring platforms or bases. The medie- 
val mortuary clay figures formerly shown on screens have been installed 
anew on shelves, and being now exposed in full light, their attractions 
can now be viewed and studied to best advantage. Five halls in the 
East Annex were ftlly installed which with Hall 44 are now devoted to 
East-Asiatic material. Hall 45 is mainly devoted to a display of the 
ceramic arts, 4 cases illustrating in historical development the most 


JAN., I914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 301 


prominent types of porcelain, three others containing faience, and three 
funeral images to which a marble sarcophagus and a glazed pottery 
coffin are joined. The other cases embrace miscellaneous material 
temporarily arranged; viz., coins, seals, and medals, Chinese and Tibetan 
silver jewelry, ancient bone carvings, and Buddhist votive offerings of 
clay. The object of the exhibits in the adjoining Hall 46 and 47 is to 
illustrate the religions of China— Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, and 
Islamism. Sixteen-cases are now on view. Confucianism is illustrated 
by the most important portraits of Confucius and scenes in his life and 
career in examples chosen from the work of the best Chinese artists. 
The other religions are presented by a large number of paintings, rub- 
bings, and statues of bronze, iron, and pottery. The principle of arrange- - 
ment is simultaneously chronological and according to subject-matter. 
The important event of the year in matters of installation proved to be 
the placing on exhibition of the Chinese and Tibetan masks, and in 
view of complexity of the technical problem involved, due credit should 
be given to the Department’s efficient preparators who with untiring 
zeal and resourcefulness have made this exhibit a success. In principle 
this group of exhibits essentially differs from the other Chinese exhibits. 
The latter are analytic in depicting certain periods and facts; the former 
are synthetic, presenting in their totality an essential and vital organ 
of Eastern life, and spontaneously convey a feeling of reality. Three 
Chinese maps, one of the year 1136 and two printed in 1461 with the 
imperial preface, have been hung in Hall 44. Six clearly engraved maps 
of China, due to the courtesy of the National Geographic Society of 
Washington, have been distributed over the various halls. The appear- 
ance of Hall 44 described in the last report has been improved in 
various ways: by the addition of labels, the reinstallation of the case 
containing ancient specimens of body armor increased by an important 
specimen obtained by purchase, and above all by the installation in wall 
cases of the two large painted scrolls presented by the Tuesday Art and 
Travel Club and appreciated in the last report. The silk tapestry 
acquired last year and a wood-cut reproduction of a celebrated landscape 
by the eminent Japanese painter Sesshu (obtained by Dr. Laufer in 
Tokyo) have been added to this wall, which now presents a unique 
spectacle of beauty of line and color. In this manner, not only is the 
best possible advantage taken of the wall space, but also the most 
efficient and impressive background is secured for the case exhibits. 
It was thought, for instance, very appropriate to include here Sesshu’s 
famed scroll, inasmuch as it-is Chinese scenery sketched by the artist 
during his sojourn in China, and the tribute paid by him in such masterly 
form to the beauty of Chinese landscape is a worthy monument to adorn 


302 Fretp Museum oF Natura History — Reports, VoL. IV. 


a hall devoted to the civilization of China. The same reason applies 
to the two memorable paintings with their gay and vivid description 
of social and commercial life in medizeval China. The numerous scenes 
displayed thereon have been interpreted in detail in a series of descrip- 
tive labels freely suspended from the lower rim of the wall-case, so that 
the interested visitor may hold them up to his eye to suit his convenience 
in reading. During the year an unusual amount of work has been done 
by the preparators. This was caused by the unusual demands made on 
their time from the nature of the Chinese collections and of the material 
brought from the South Pacific Islands by Assistant Curator Lewis. 
Of the work done in the Modeling Section not a little has been in com- 
pliance with requests from the Curator in charge of the Harris Public 
School Extension. For work of this nature casts for many replicas of the 
Igorot Ethnic Group, prepared last year, have been made. For the 
Harris Extension also have been made the following: Ground-work 
and houses for 8 coal-mines; ground-work and accessories for 6 Spanish 
forges; ground-work for 6 gopher groups; 6 Eskimo snow houses; 8 
Eskimo figures; casts of 8 gold nuggets; 16 reproductions of cacao pods; 
one piece-mold of cacao pod for wax casting; 6 miniature rhinoceroses; 
6 miniature hippopotamuses. For the Department the following work 
has been done by the Section of Modeling: For the Chinese Section, 42 
papier-mache display figures, besides a large number of miscellaneous 
rubbings, reproductions of seals, bronzes and porcelains, and iron 
inscriptions, etc., also reproductions of various designs for display and 
photography; for the North American Section, 12 papier-mache display 
figures, 96 moccasin forms, and 66 plaster busts; for the Philippine 
Section, 70 papier-mache display figures, used in installing garments, 
etc., ground-work for spirit houses and house models, and many mis- 
cellaneous repairs and restorations. The most important work done by 
the modelers during the year has been the preparation of a group to 
be ready early next year, intended to occupy a case 12 feet square. 
This will be a Bagobo group and comprise, among other things, seven 
figures in life-size which have all been modeled from life. 

In the Department of Botany little new material for exhibition 
purposes has been received during the past year, though that received 
has been of great value to the series for installation. The principal 
accessions were received from The Forest Economist of India, 56 fruits, 
gums, oils, rubbers, and fibers; from The United States Appraiser’s 
Stores, specimens of imports of crude drugs and other vegetable sub- 
stances; E. W. Blake, California, four tree trunks and a box of fruits 
and nuts; The Pacific Improvement Company, California, four tree 
trunks; H. H. Smith, Dendrologist, 13 local medical roots; Miss Jose- 


JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR: 303 


phine Tilden, 32 fruits, seeds, and gums from the South Pacific Islands; 
The American Trading Company of Yokohama, rice, kodzu, and bamboo 
- papers; the N. K. Fairbank Company, 16 cottonseed oil products. 
Notwithstanding the small amount of material received, the public 
installation has progressed satisfactorily. New material has been added 
to the following families and the cases reinstalled to accommodate the 
same: The Fig Family; the Nutmeg and the Arrowroot Families; the 
Poison Ivy Family (2 cases); the Indian Lac Family; the Horsechestnut 
Family; the Mallow Family; the Pea Family; and a number of other 
cases readjusted. Ten new double cases were received in April. These 
were installed with the following material: The Grape and the Buck- 
thorn Families; the Vegetable-tallow Family; the Milkweed Family; 
the Dogbane Family; the Sapodilla Family; the Verbena Family; the 
Ebony Family; the Joint-fir Family; interesting utilizations of the 
Bamboo; the Australian Beefwood Family; the Birch Family; the Mint 
Family; the Bean Family; the Orchid Family; the Potato Family; the 
Ginger Family; the Geranium Family; the Magnolia Family and the 
Mushrooms. The North American Forestry exhibition has been aug- 
mented by twenty-two monographic installations as follows: the Winged 
Elm; Bitter Hickory; Black Ash; Kentucky Coffee-tree; Hackberry; 
Red Birch; Sugar Maple; Blue Ash; Texan Oak; White Hickory; Per- 
simmon; Tupelo Gum; Pecan; Sweet Gum; Pignut Hickory; Shagbark 
Hickory; Sassafras; Swamp Cottonwood; Southern White Oak; Overcup 
Oak; Red Maple; and Box Elder. Ten other species are prepared and 
await cases. The following productions in the Section of Modeling 
have played a large part in the installation accomplished during the 
year: Ten different, growing mushroom colonies representative of as 
many edible or poisonous species; a full size plant of Mirmecodium 
illustrating the peculiar utilization of its bulbous base as a nest by ant 
colonies; a large, natural size branch of the Great Magnolia in full leaf, 
flower bud, flower and fruit, reproducing the freshly opened flower as 
well as those of several days’ anthesis; a natural size branch of the 
Bilimbi tree, of Sumatra, in full leaf, flower and fruit; a fruiting branch 
of the East Indian Carambola; an enlarged flower of the common Sorrel 
illustrating family characteristics; a large, leafy, fruiting, and flowering 
branch of the peculiar Joint-fir of the tropics which join the exogenous 
(wood-heart) and the endogenous (fiber-heart) trees, also an enlarged 
flower cluster and two enlarged flowers of the same; a full size branch 
of the Maidenhair tree in full leaf and fruit; an enlarged flower of 
the Cardamom, somewhat like a pineapple in appearance, eaten as 
a vegetable in the Oriental tropics; a full size cluster of leafy, flowering, 
and fruiting vines of the Vanilla plant; a natural size flower and leaf of 


304 FieLtp Museum oF Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


the beautiful Cattleya orchid displaying family characteristics; a bundle 
of Betel leaves to accompany the exposition of betel chewing; a large 
branch of Connarus in full fruit and leaf; a tuber of the Oriental Yam; a 
full size plant of the common, roadside, Milkweed in full leaf, flower, and 
fruit; a branch of the Persimmon in full, ripe fruit; a large sprout of the 
edible Bamboo as sold in the markets of China and Java; a leafy; fruit- 
ing branch of the famed Mangosteen of Java, with two fruits in section 
showing the edible pulp; a natural size fruit of the Guava and a section 
showing the seed characters; and a leafy twig bearing a pair of full ripe 
fruits of the Osage Orange. The Curator of Botany has conceived, and 
the Section of Modeling cleverly worked out, a unique method of placing 
before the public such microscopic plants as the germs of disease and 
other low orders of vegetable life. In this the microscope itself has been 
eliminated from the installations, its magnified field only being shown 
in the form of reproductions distinctly portraying the objects that it is 
desirable to display. In this manner the following plants, invisible 
to the unaided eye, have been prepared and placed on exhibition: 


A field showing graphically how bacteria multiply. 


Forms of Bacteria: 
Rod-like (Bacterium, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Vibrio) 
Globular (Coccus, Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Sarcina)

history and their structure. Diatoms were formerly appreciated 
mainly because of their esthetic beauty as microscope objects, 
but recently they are coming into prominence on account of their 
recognition as one of the fundamental food supplies of marine 
life. The series exhibited comprises: 


The Barrel Diatom (Melosira Borrerz) in colony and individual growth. 

The Triangle Diatom (Triceratium favus) in single and dissected speci- 
mens, the latter illustrating the structural parts of diatoms. 

The Bristled Diatom (Chetoceras Lorenzianum) in chain formation. 

The Fan Diatom (Licmorpha flabellata) two colonies attached to an alga. 

The Sun Diatom (Planctionella Sol), highly magnified. 

The Bristling Rod Diatom (Bacteriastrum varians), in chain colony 
growth. 

Two Stylus Diatoms (Rhizosolenia styliformis and setigera), in chain 
growth and separate individuals. 


All these forms are reproduced very highly magnified to show their 
distinctive characters. . 
The meteorite collection has been entirely reinstalled in order to 
incorporate into it the specimens, numbering about 1,600, of the Ward- 
Coonley collection. As exhibition space was not available for the entire 
collection it was divided, the iron meteorites being installed in Alcove 
106 and the stone and iron-stone meteorites in Hall 63, which is not at 
present open to the public. In making this reinstallation, all specimens 
have been placed according to the falls to which they belong so as to 
make the representation of the different falls as complete as possible. 
The installation in Alcove 106 is in the cases previously used for the 
collection, and that in Hall 63, in the cases obtained with the Ward- 
Coonley collection. All casts have been withdrawn from exhibition 
partly for lack of space and partly because their presence is liable to 
cause confusion. The installation of the meteorite collection is now 
complete with the exception of the Canyon Diablo specimens, the bases 
for which have not yet been prepared. It is intended that the Canyon 
Diablo specimens, when installed, will occupy a single case instead of 
being scattered among several as formerly. The large iron meteorite 
from the Davis Mountains, Texas, obtained during the year, was in- 
stalled in a floor case in Alcove 106. The bases of the glacial slabs in 
Alcove 103 have been mahoganized and some minor changes made in 
the installation of this alcove. All of the collections of ores of copper, 
zinc, iron, and many minor metals have been removed from the upright 
cases in Hall 34 and reinstalled. This removal was for the purpose of 
tinting the interior of the cases to the uniform black color now adopted 
for all cases. In reinstalling these collections considerable rearrange- 


306 Fietp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


ment was made in order to improve sequences and permit of the introduc- 
tion of new material. The new material was in part illustrative of the 
uses of the metals and in part illustrative of ores and ore dressing. 
Among new series so added may be mentioned that received from 
Francis C. Nicholas illustrating the development of hematite from 
pyrite and that from the Oliver Mining Company showing the con- 
centration of iron ores by washing. New illustrations of uses of metals 
added include series illustrating nickel plating, nickel steel, fracture and 
color of different alloys of copper and zinc, and glass tinting and making. 
The suites of six slabs of Georgia marbles, 13 slabs of Vermont marbles, 
and three slabs of Canadian marbles received during the year were in- 
stalled in their appropriate places in the marble collection in Hall 34, 
some readjusting of space and specimens having been necessary for this 
purpose. Some additions to the collections of abrasives, asbestos, and 
vein formations were installed in Hall 31, and rearrangements of the 
series already on exhibition were made for this purpose. Nine floor 
cases of clays and sands have been installed in Hall 63. These 
cases include six cases illustrating the classification of clays, one case 
showing effects of different components on clays, one case of refractory 
materials and one case showing uses of silica. A floor case of petroleum 
products has also been installed in this hall and a wall case showing 
varieties of soils in Hall 61. Two cases of graphite and asphalt in Hall 
35 were rearranged in order to add a collection illustrating the uses of 
graphite. A model of a coal mine, prepared for the uses of the Harris 
Extension Fund, was installed in Hall 34 pending its use in the schools. 
This model represents both the above-ground and underground equip- 
ment of a large colliery, the features shown being typical of those gener- 
ally employed. Above ground are shown in miniature a tipple and fan, 
boiler house, machine shop and a village of miner’s houses. In front of 
these the ground is represented as cut away to a depth of 200 feet in 
order to uncover the underground system of galleries and chambers. 
Hoisting and air shafts connect the two portions. The underground 
portion is worked on the panel-retreating system. Three panels are 
shown; one worked out and caved in, one in active production, and one 
just being opened. Other exhibits to the number of 20 have been pre- 
pared for the use of the Harris Extension. These include series illustrat- 
ing the origin of coal, coal plants of Illinois, invertebrate fossils, ores of 
iron, ores of several metals, useful minerals, abrasives, glass manu- 
facture, steel manufacture, graphite, asbestos, salt, etc. Floor cases 
have been placed in Halls 35 and 59 for the installation of the Dolichor- 
hinus mount and the skeleton of the fossil camel Oxydactylus. The 
Dolichorhinus mount is the most nearly complete skeleton of this form

in existence. It shows all but a few limb bones of a complete individual. 
The skeleton is mounted in a recumbent position surrounded by matrix. 
As the rarity of the form will probably make detailed study of its parts 
frequently desirable, most of the parts have been mounted in such a 
way that though appearing joined together, they can be easily removed 
for examination. The mount was prepared from material obtained by 
the Museum expedition to the Uintah Basin in 1910. Considerable 
labor was involved in preparing the mount from the fact that about 
half the bones were in such a distorted position as found that it was 
necessary to remove them entirely from the matrix before they could 
be brought into proper relation for mounting. In order to make room 
for the new cases mentioned, the cast of Dinotherium was removed from 
Hall 59 and the icthyosaur and plesiosaur models from Hall 35. The 
skull of the giant beaver Castoroides obtained during the year was 
assembled with other bones of the same genus and placed on exhibition 
in Hall 35. A collection of remains of extinct Patagonian mammals 
including some portions of the carapace of a glyptodon was installed 
in a wall case in Hall 59 and a floor case of White River turtles was 
placed on exhibition in the same hall. Some rearrangement of the 
adjoining exhibits was made in connection with this addition. A wall 
case of Oligocene mammals, chiefly titanotheres, was installed in Hall 
61 and one of Quaternary forms, chiefly remains of the Mammoth and 
Mastodon, in the same hall. In Hall 60 a case of marine Eocene mam- 
mals and other forms was installed, and in Hall 63 a table case of Miocene 
mammals. A wall case of Devonian invertebrate fossils; was installed 
in Hall 61 and one of Cretaceous and Tertiary invertebrates in Hall 65. 
Some additions were made to the invertebrate fossils installed in Hall 
33 and some rearrangement performed in this connection. The Assist- 
ant Curator devoted over three months’ time to the analysis of Chinese 
bronzes for the Department of Anthropology. One hundred complete 
quantitative analyses of these bronzes were made. Other quantitative 
analyses made by the Assistant Curator during the year included those 
of the Davis Mountains and MacQuarie River meteorites. Numerous 
qualitative analyses have also been made in the Lake Avenue laboratory, 
a number of meteorite sections etched, and several preparations for the 
exhibition series made. The material stored in trays in Hall 61, which 
had in part been withdrawn from exhibition at the time of moving from 
the West Annex, has been carefully gone over, much condensed and 
provided with better protection from dust and disintegration. It has 
also been grouped so that every specimen is readily accessible and each 
specimen has been labeled sufficiently for identification. As at present 
- arranged, the material occupies 150 wooden trays 18 x 26 inches in size. 


308 Fretp Museum or Natura. History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


Early in the year the paleontological laboratory was moved from the 
quarters temporarily occupied in the section of taxidermy to Halls 77 
and 78 of the West Annex. Side windows were cut, work tables were 
fitted, and a sink, benches, and racks were installed in these halls. Racks 
for 350 trays were erected in part of Hall 78 and a sorting table pro- 
vided. The semi-prepared and duplicate material was carefully arranged 
in these trays, and its complete preservation and accessibility thus as- 
sured. In these quarters the preparation of vertebrate and invertebrate 
fossils has been actively carried on through the year and a notable 
amount of material worked out. The most important single piece pre- 
pared during the year was a slab showing twenty-six skeletons of the 
fossil water deer, Leptomeryx evansi. This slab was collected in South 
Dakota in 1905. It was known at the time to be a remarkable specimen, 
but its great richness in individuals was only realized on its being worked 
out. In preparing the slab for exhibition the upper surface of the stone 
has been chiseled away with great care, leaving the skeletons exposed 
in high relief upon a background of the natural matrix. Not a bone 
has been disturbed from its original position in the rock. Of the twenty- 
six individuals shown, nine are in articulated position. Some are in a 
natural reclining position, while others have legs, vertebral columns or 
skulls dislocated and some are entirely disarticulated. The slab presents 
one of the most notable aggregations of fossil mammals to be found in 
any museum, and exceeds all in the number of individuals shown 
associated. The size of the slab is four by seven feet. Sufficient mate- 
rial was secured in connection with this to enable an articulated skeleton 
to be mounted for exhibition beside it. The specimen as a whole will 
make known for the first time the complete structure of this animal, 
portions of which have been known to science for sixty years. The 
preparation of the slab has occupied a large part of the time during the 
year of Preparator Abbott under the supervision of the Assistant Curator 
of Paleontology. Mr. Abbott was the discoverer of the specimen in the 
field. A large number of other valuable specimens of vertebrate fossils 
collected by the Museum expeditions of 1905, 1906, and 1908 in the 
Western States have been prepared for exhibition during the year or have 
been freed from their matrix so as to be readily available for study or 
exchange. The specimens so prepared, determined, and installed during 
the year include 28 miscellaneous specimens of Oligocene titanotheres, 
three skulls and one jaw of Miocene creodonts, four carapaces and plas- 
trons of Miocene tortoises and one each of Oligocene tortoise and Eocene 
turtle. Eight specimens of Miocene horses, 12 of Miocene creodonts, 11 
of Miocene camels and one each of Miocene rhinoceros and camel, were 
also prepared sufficiently for identification. The skeleton of Canis diurus 
received from the University of California was freed from adhering and

inhering asphalt and made ready for mounting. Specimens of Patagonian 
fossil mammals, 28 in all, were also prepared, determined, and installed. 
The Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology has prepared and 
published descriptions of 12 new species and one new genus of trilobites 
which he collected in the Maquoketa beds of Fayette County, Iowa, and 
has cleaned and identified a large amount of othe. .uaterial which he 
obtained at the same localities. In addition he has mounted on labeled 
tablets for exhibition a large number of invertebrate fossils, the work of 
mounting having progressed as rapidly as the tablets could be obtained 
from the printer. 

Several bird and mammal groups are nearing completion, but only 
one was actually installed during the year — a large group representing 
bird life on Laysan Island. This island, situated about 400 miles west 
of Honolulu in the mid-Pacific, has been set aside as a United States 
Government Bird Reservation on account of the vast number of pelagic 
birds that breed there. The group includes eleven species of birds 
(with a number of nests and eggs), among them being Petrels, Man-o’- 
war birds, and two species of Albatrosses. The latter are shown indulg- 
ing in their peculiar “‘dance.”’ The painted background shows the 
character of the island and the great number of birds which breed there, 
an illustration of environment, being of educational value. A very large 
group of American Bison is in the final stage of installation and will soon 
occupy space in the central rotunda of the Museum. This group of 
representative American mammals contains six Bison of varying ages, 
shown in a characteristic Western Plains setting, to wich environ- 
ment ‘‘atmosphere”’ has been given by the addition of a few small 
animals, such as prairie dog, a burrowing owl, and a rattlesnake. A 
large amount of taxidermy work has been planned and partly executed. 
Groups in various stages of completion are: Olympic Elk, Capybara 
and Jaguar, and a chipmunk and Spermophile group. Fresh specimens 
for an imposing group of Alaskan Moose and also for an Arctic bird 
group (Walrus Island) have been received, and work on these groups 
will begin at once. Five specimens of mammals have been added to the 
serial exhibition collection and several more are partly mounted, some 
of which will be completed at an early date. These are Asiatic Takin, 
Spectacled Bear, Kansu Deer, Mandril,and White-lipped Peccary. Some 
twenty specimens were added to the series of mouuted birds including 
two examples of the exceedingly rare Trumpeter S-van, a gift from Mr. 
J. M. Barnes of Lacon, Illinois. During the year the attention of the 
Division of Entomology was given as much as possible to work that 
pertained directly or indirectly to the installation of exhibits. A step 
in this direction was the week spent in completing the work of determin- 
ing local grasshoppers or Orthoptera, which, it is planned, will eventually 


310 Fietp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


form a part of an exhibition series of Illinois insects. With the same end 
in view, some time was devoted to local bugs or Hemiptera, the insects 
that follow the grasshopper in scientific arrangement. At different 
periods, equaling about three months, the Assistant Curator of Ento- 
mology gave his attention to the spreading and labeling of exotic butter- 
flies representing stored accessions intended for exhibition. By means 
of the material thus prepared, also by using the duplicates which were 
acquired with the Strecker collection, it will be possible to make many 
desirable additions to the butterfly exhibit when it is transferred to the 
new insect cases. The attention of the assistant was largely given to 
the making of life-history groups. 

THE N. W. HARRIS PUBLIC SCHOOL EXTENSION OF FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL 
History. — The problem of supplying museum material to the 
public schools of Chicago under the auspices of The N. W. Harris 
Public School Extension of Field Museum has been initiated and 
satisfactory progress may be reported. During the first part of the 
year considerable time was spent in seeking information, formulating 
plans of operation, and inaugurating methods of procedure. While 
these steps were necessary and essential, approved visible results during 
that period were few but helpful. Considerable of this period was 
devoted to the development of the character and construction of a type 
of exhibition case. Itis believed that the adopted style of case meets 
the requirements for stability, portability, usefulness, and appear- 
ance. It is the aim to standardize all cases, so far as the length and 
height are concerned. The depths of the cases has so far been deter- 
mined at four, seven and ten inches. These variations of depths have 
met thus far the requirements of all installed material. In the very 
earliest stages of determining the suitability of the cases to be circulated, 
one very important feature had to be carefully considered. It was 
determined that the two framed explanatory labels which are to accom- 
pany each case to the schools should be a part of the case proper, so as to 
avoid leaving the labels either at the Museum or at the school when the 
cases were either being delivered or returned. To meet this requirement 
a scheme of having the two framed labels on grooves affixed to the back 
of the case was adopted. This arrangement permits of the labels being 
extended to full view on either end of each case when in use in the class- 
room, and of being closed flush with the cases when being transported 
to and from the Museum. In order to prevent as much as possible the 
handling of cases when in schoolrooms, and that the contents of the 
cases may be easily seen and studied by a number of students at one 
time, two hanging appliances have been attached to the top edge of the 
back of each case, that it may hang from hooks in the wall or upon a 
standard stand in full view of the classes. To lessen the occurrence of 


JAN., 1914. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 311 


accidents to the cases when being transported by pupils from room to 
room, experience clearly showed the advisability of having a light, strong 
handle at each end of a case. The design of a black painted wooden 
specimen and label holder in one piece assists not only in the rapid in- 
stallation of collections, but in the general appearance of neatness and 
order as well. The cases and contents which are now ready for distribu- 
tion among the schools, were designed with the idea of their serving as 
keys or sample cases from which duplicates can be easily and quickly 
prepared. Eighty cases of loan collections are now available for use in 
the schools. Thirty-eight of these cases represent zodlogical material, 
twenty-one geological, twenty botanical, one anthropological. Many 
public spirited individuals and corporations have given substantial aid 
by presenting materials of educational value. In many instances the 
materials represent the various stages of manufacture from the raw to 
the finished products. Such collections, accompanied by carefully 
prepared labels, should prove of value in geographical work, in com- 
mercial studies, and also in nature study courses. During the spring, 
each of the following schools — Burr, Mann, Warren, McAllister, Haines 
Practice and Carter Practice — made use of the cases for a period of two 
weeks. The request of the Superintendent of Schools for cases to be 
sent to Burnside vacation school opened up an entirely new field of 
museum extension work. The request was granted, and for the entire 
period of the usual summer vacation, several cases were on exhibition 
at the above school, and not only were these cases viewed and studied 
by the pupils, but by many of the residents of the neighborhood adjacent 
to the school.

GERMS OF TUBERCULOSIS. 


( Bacterium tuberculosis ). 


Tubercular affections in man and animals are caused by organisms 
such as the above. They may attack any organ in the body or all of 
them. Cattle are especially liable to become affected with tuberculosis; 
thus dairy products are a prolific source of infection. Outside of the 
body the bacillus may live for many weeks. It is, however, killed by 
a few hours.exposure to direct sunlight.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 
1914 


To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History: 

I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the Museam 
for the year ending December 31, 1914. 

The Twentieth Anniversary of the foundation of the Museum was 
ushered in with an intimation that it was necessary to curtail certain 
activities in the Institution, in view of the default in payment of inter- 
est on certain investments held in the Endowment Fund. There is 
satisfaction in announcing, however, that this condition is only tem- 
porary, for later in the year it was ascertained that the security for 
the investments referred to was ample to protect the Institution as - 
to both principal and interest. The chief reduction in expenditure 
was effected by the temporary abandonment of work in the Modeling 
Sections of the Departments of Anthropology and Botany. It was 
felt that the postponement of this work would not seriously affect the 
plans of the Departments involved, and that the resumption of 
operations might be undertaken at any future time without det-iment 
to the work in hand. 

Probably the most important event of the year was the tender 
to the Board of Trustees of a site for the new Museum building 
in the reclaimed area south of Grant Park by the South Park Com- 
missioners. It is confidently anticipated that ground will be broken 
on this site before the date of the next report. Already the greater 
part of the steel necessary for the construction of the building is on 
the ground, and of the marble necessary for the exterior of the 
structure more than one-half has been quarried and cut. 

In view of the necessity of retrenchment in the matter of main- 
tenance expenses, it was deemed advisable to discontinue for the 
present the two lecture courses hitherto given on Saturday afternoons 
in March and April, and October and November. The fact that there 
is no hall in the present building to accommodate these lectures, and 
the further fact that the only suitable auditorium with the requisite 
seating capacity is situated some seven miles from the Institution, seems 
to justify the temporary abandonment of this means of public instruc- 
tion.

370 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. IV. 


The publication of a series of picture postal cards, portraying 
the various objects and groups installed in the Museum, was inaugu- 
rated during the year. The sale of the cards has been encouraging, 
for over fifty thousand have been disposed of,, although they have 
only been offered for sale a few months. A second series representing 
forty-two objects and groups in the collections will shortly be pub- 
lished. 

The acceptance by Assistant Curator Osgood of the invitation 
to serve on a United States Government Commission to study and 
make recommendations regarding the management of the fur-seal 
herd on the Pribiloff Islands, deprived the Department of Zodlogy 
of his services for over half of the year. Leave of absence was granted 
to Curator Dorsey of the Department of Anthropology for approxi- 
mately one year. At least two months of Dr. Dorsey’s time, however, 
will be occupied in an ethnologic survey of British India in behalf 
of the Museum. The remainder of the leave granted is for a personal 
undertaking. 

The death of Byron L. Smith, Treasurer of the Museum, in March 
has to be recorded. Mr. Smith had faithfully served the Museum 
as Treasurer since its foundation, and as an officer of the Board, a 
friend of the Institution, and a high-minded public-spirited citizen of 
Chicago, his loss will be keenly felt. Mr. Solomon A. Smith was 
elected Treasurer to succeed his father. The death of Mr. Joseph N. 
Field, a Patron of the Museum, has also to be chronicled, and as a 
memorial for his generosity to the Museum, the Board of Trustees by 
resolution have named the hall in which the South Sea Islands 
ethnological material is installed the ‘‘Joseph N. Field Hall.” 
The death of Dr. Seth Eugene Meek in July of this year was a 
shock to his associates, and is an irreparable loss to the Department 
of Zodlogy, of which he was Assistant Curator for seventeen years. 
Dr. Meek’s highly valuable services on behalf of the Institution were 
recognized by the Board of Trustees in formal resolutions adopted on 
the occasion of his death. 

Mr. Carl E. Akeley in performance of his contract completed and 
installed during the month of December a group of African Buffalo 
consisting of five individuals. This group which is installed in the 
South Court keeps fully up to the high standard of excellence exhibited 
by those previously produced by him. A brief description of this 
addition to the Museum groups is made elsewhere in this report. 

References elsewhere indicate that the activities in the Institution, 
more especially in the progress of installation, have been fully main- 
tained during the year under review.

MAINTENANCE.—The cost of maintenance for the year amounted to 
approximately $135,000, which was $13,000 less than the amount 
authorized by the Board of Trustees. The total amount expended for 
all purposes was $198,600 being $38,500 less than the previous year. 
The difference between the cost of maintenance and the actual amount 
expended is accounted for by special appropriations for the purchase of 
collections. The necessary repairs to the building were performed 
by the regular maintenance force. 

PusLications.—T he number of publications issued during the year was 
seven. These seven comprise parts of five volumes, details of which

There were added during the year 2,639 books and pamphlets. The 
principal growth has been through gifts and interchange of the Museum’s © 
publications with individuals and institutions. Among the important 
purchases were complete sets to date of the Transactions of the Asiatic 
Society of Japan; Journal fur Ornithologie; Ornithologische Monats- 
berichte; and Ornis. Through the continued interest of friends a num- 
ber of valuable publications were received. Mrs. Frank W. Barker, 
Chicago, presented ten parts of a rare work ‘‘The Acropolis of acon.” 
Dr. Berthold Laufer, Chicago, a copy of “Epigraphische Denkméaler 
aus China, Part first”? recently published by Dr. Laufer and Otto 
Franke. Publications were also received from Mrs. F. H. Chalfant 
of Pittsburgh; Prof. Henry F. Osborn of New York; Sir Thomas W. 
Northcote of London; Judge Curtis H. Lindley of San Francisco; 
and Prof. Alexander W. Evans of New Haven. The courtesy of 
several contemporary institutions enabled the Library to complete 
sets of their publications. The more noteworthy were: Amer- 
ican Geographical Society New York City; British Museum Lon- 
don; Cambridge University, Cambridge, England; Kentucky Geolog- 
ical Survey Frankfort; South Park Commission, Chicago; Museum of 
Natural History, Marseilles, France; Royal Asiatic Society, Shanghai; 
Royal Botanical Garden, Edinburgh, Scotland; Royal Museum of 
Bohemia, Prag; Senckenbergische Naturforschende Gesellschaft, Frank- 
fort-am-Main; Zodlogical Institute, Strassburg; Royal Society of 
Tasmania, Hobart; National University of La Plata, Buenos Aires. 
The books and periodicals bound during the year number 504. As 
routine work permits, the opportunity is being improved to make a 


374 Fretp Museum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


more careful and extended analysis of many sets of periodicals. There 
have been written and filed in the catalogues 21,000 cards. Twelve 
installments of the John Crerar Library library cards have been 
received and alphabetically arranged in the catalogue. During the 
summer months the Stack Room was thoroughly cleaned, and a com- 
plete rearrangement of the books made. A discarded exhibition case 
was fitted with shelves and converted into a temporary bookcase. 

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LABELING.—The catalogue 
cards prepared by the Department of Anthropology during the year 
numbered 2,825, distributed as follows: Archeology, 401; Mela- 
nesian Ethnology, 1,374; Asiatic Ethnology, 1,050. These cards 
with the addition of 1,885 from the preceding year make a total 
of 4,710 that have been entered in the inventory books of the Depart- 
ment. Of the cards relating to American archeology some have not 
as yet been turned over to the cataloguer, being retained for further 
reference in connection with the installation of the material which they 
record. The number of accessions for the year is 26, of which 25 have 
been recorded in the inventory. The volumes of inventories number 
37. The labels printed for the Department during the year number 
3,045, of which 621 were for the Melanesian division, with the addition 
of 135 prepared for the Fiji collection by Assistant Curator Cole, 22 for 
American Ethnology and over 2,o00 for the Division of Asiatic Ethnol- 
ogy. The photographic prints prepared for the Department were 
classified and arranged in albums, of which 11 volumes were added to the 
series, 9 containing photographs of Chinese and 2 of Tibetan specimens. 

The Curator of Botany reports the preparation of 650 labels. Of 
these all that have been printed have been placed against the objects 
installed. The complete card catalogue of all the collectors and geo- 
graphic regions represented by specimens installed, containing over 
12,000 cards, has been finished and arranged in a new and readily 
referable steel index case. This catalogue is unique and of the greatest 
value not only to students of the world of plants, but to the efficiency of 
the Department itself. The work of inventorying the specimens 
organized has been kept up to date, 7,521 entries having been made 
during the year, making the total number of entries 412,486. 

The material catalogued in the Department of Geology during the 
year included 590 mineral specimens, 355 economic specimens, and 364 
miscellaneous. A total of 2,138 labels was prepared during the year, 
of which 891 have been printed and distributed. The most important 
series of these was that for the meteorite collection, the number made 
for that purpose being 1,003. These labels show for each specimen 
the classification of the meteorite, the locality of the fall or find, date

of fall or find, the weight of the specimen and its catalogue number. 
A large number of miscellaneous labels in addition were prepared relat- 
ing mostly to material received during the year. Several of these 
labels were descriptive. Some of the series thus labeled include the 
asphalt collection, a part of the petroleum collection, the collection of 
Japanese volcanic material, the amber collection, a series of mammoth 
and mastodon teeth, and about 200 miscellaneous specimens of min- 
erals. The descriptive labels in Higinbotham Hall were provided with 
white frames corresponding in color to the interior of the cases in order 
to give a more attractive appearance to the installation. 

In the Department of Zodlogy cataloguing and labeling of specimens 
was continued as usual. In the various inventory books all new mate- 
rial received from Museum expeditions during the year was promptly 
entered as soon as the specimens were identified, and also card-cata- 
logued. Some rearrangement in the mammal and bird collection has 
been made, and the revision of old labels continued. The work of 
rearranging and transferring the exhibition collection of shells to new 
cases was commenced and about 2,500 specimens were placed on newly 
prepared tablets and a new arrangement of labeling adopted. Under 
the supervision of Assistant Curator Gerhard the entire time of one 
assistant was devoted to this work. The preparation of labels for 
the shells to be installed in the new cases is now progressing. The 
entire collection of humming-birds, including about 400 species and sub- 
species, was rearranged in new trays and properly card-catalogued, and 
labels for specimens of reptiles, fishes, and crustaceans, placed on exhibi- 
tion during the year, have been prepared and installed. The large 
mammal skins stored in the basement of the Museum have been re- 
arranged, listed, and catalogued in such a way that they are now readily 
accessible for quick reference.

Accessions.—The majority of accessions credited to the Department 
of Anthropology for the year: have been made possible through the 
generosity of friends. The collection of classical archeology has 


376 Frertp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


been increased by two gifts of Mr. Edward E. Ayer —a large Etrus- 
can bronze vessel with chain handle and a small variegated glass bottle 
from Egypt. Two other Italian bronze cistas of the third cen- 
tury B.C., acquired by Mr. Ayer in Rome, were purchased by the 
Museum. These specimens belong to a type now very scarce, and 
seldom, if ever, offered for sale on the market. A diorite statuette of a 
woman from Egypt, of great artistic beauty, likewise obtained by Mr. 
Ayer, was secured through exchange. The section of North American 
archeology received from Mr. F. Schrott a flaked knife-blade of chert, 
and from Mr. Clarence B. Moore of Philadelphia an assortment of 
archeological material. Fifty arrowheads and two stone axes from 
Rock Hall, Maryland, were secured through exchange with Mr. George 
C. Roberts. To Mr. Homer E. Sargent the Department is indebted for 
an ancient gold ring from Mexico which has been added to the exhibits 
of American gold jewelry in Higinbotham Hall. Dr. W. S. Lowe, 
Phoenix, Arizona, presented several sections of cane stem, some 
wrapped up with a small cotton fabric, found under a ledge of rock 
in the Camelback Mountains, fifteen miles northeast of Phoenix, 
and to have served as an offering. American ethnology has been 
enriched by a gift from Mr. Richard G. Ellis, consisting of a rawhide 
lariat, wooden bow with skin case, a stone celt, and a stone dise; and by 
a gift from Mrs. Frank A. Devlin of Chicago, comprising three finely 
carved cups of pod from Costa Rica (modern) and two prehistoric pot- 
tery vessels from the same locality. The following acquisitions from 
Assistant Curator Owen’s recent expedition to Arizona have been 
added: three finished two-faced Navaho blankets, and one in 
the loom during the process of working, two-thirds being finished; 
specimens of yarn, and implements used in weaving. Mr. Cleaver 
Warden, Carlton, Oklahoma, presented the Museum with a peyote out- 
fit of the Arapaho. Mrs. Frank W. Barker of Chicago presented the 
Museum with a miscellaneous lot of 17 objects from Italy, Egypt, India, 
northwest coast of North America, Hawaii, and Micronesia. The fol- 
lowing gifts were received by the section of Asiatic Ethnology: a 
rhinoceros-horn presented by Mr. F. W. Kaldenberg of New York; a 
Japanese gold piece (10 yen), and a Japanese rectangular silver coin 
from Mrs. T. B. Blackstone; three printing-blocks from the Examination 
Halls of Nanking from the Curator; an interesting mariner’s compass, 
enclosed in a copper case, from Mr. Thomas Mason. ‘Three paintings 
representing polo matches, one album with 25 flower-pieces painted on 
silk, and another containing an Atlas of Hunan Province with sixteen 
hand-painted colored maps, were presented by Dr. John R. Taylor, in 
recognition of services rendered him in the identification of his collection

of Chinese paintings. The most important gift accessioned during the 
year are two exquisite silk-embroidered hangings presented by Dr. 
F. W. Gunsaulus, who has always evinced a keen and generous interest 
in the work of the Museum. These specimens were made in the 
Imperial Atelier for use in the Palace, and are classical examples of the 
marvelous skill attained by the Chinese in art needlework. They have 
been placed on exhibition in special wall-cases in Hall 45. The Museum 
is further indebted to Dr. Gunsaulus for two Japanese water-colors, 
framed, one illustrating the pounding of tea-leaves preparatory to the 
tea-ceremonies, the other showing a woman engaged in painting. 
Three notable acquisitions for the Chinese Collection were effected by 
purchase. The generosity of Mrs. T. B. Blackstone enabled the 
Museum to secure a famous collection of ancient Chinese coins, 690 in 
number. This numismatic collection is of intrinsic scientific value, 
including, as it does, many rare and unique ancient specimens; particu- 
larly it abounds in those earliest forms of currency, bronze-cast sham- 
implements, like knives, axes, spades, bells, etc., which are of specific 
archeological interest in permitting a study of the development of 
these ancient utensils. Mr. Chalfant, the collector, unfortunately met | 
a premature death on January 14th, at the age of 52; his collection of 
ancient bone carvings, reference to which was made last year, and the 
coin collection in question, remain the most enduring monument of his 
fruitful activity and his serious aspirations. Mr. Chalfant had spent 
the last seven years of his life on the decipherment of the inscriptions 
on these bone carvings and left a voluminous manuscript on this work 
in two quarto-volumes. Mrs. Chalfant has placed this manuscript 
with others in the trust of Associate Curator Laufer, with the request 
that he take charge of the publication thereof. Two nephrite tablets 
from an imperial jade book, the one inscribed in Manchu, the other 
engraved with a pair of dragons, were purchased from Mr. Hackett. 
Through the services of Mr. W. W. Simpson, an American missionary 
in Taochow, Kansu, China, the Museum succeeded in obtaining the 
seal and grant conferred upon the Taochow Lama Temple by the 
Emperor K‘ang-hi in 1713. When Dr. Laufer secured the remaining 
spoils of this temple at the time of his sojourn at Taochow in 1910, it 
was impossible to get hold of these documents, as the abbot of the 
monastery is not permitted to part with them without the sanction of 
the high Church Dignitaries of Lhasa. Word was accordingly left with 
Mr. Simpson, requesting him to arrange for this transaction, which is 
now felicitously concluded. The large, square seal is carved from wood 
surmounted by the figure of a standing lion which serves as a handle; 
the K‘ang-hi date-mark is engraved on the top. The grant is written

out in Tibetan on imperial yellow silk, which has dragons and other 
designs woven in, and is stamped with numerous seals. These unique 
objects naturally are of principal value to the Museum, inasmuch as 
they furnish substantial evidence for the fact that all treasures in its 
possession from the Lama Temple in question were indeed turned out 
during the K‘ang-hi era (1662-1722) and prior to the year 1713. 

In the Department of Botany considerable valuable material for 
exhibition purposes has been received. The Chicago Varnish Company 
has presented a very complete and valuable collection of 344 charac- 
teristic specimens of natural varnish gums, many of them the largest, 
clearest, and most typical examples of their kind known. These have 
been fully labeled and installed in two cases, accompanied by tubes of 
varnishes made from each class of gum exhibited. From the Philippine 
Bureau of Education a series of 147 typical fibers and objects utilizing 
the same have been received and installed among other objects belong- 
ing to the various families of plants they illustrate. Dr. Laufer has 
presented the Department with several characteristic specimens of 
“brick Tea” and of paper and raw material illustrating Chinese paper 
made from Derge roots. The U.S. Bureau of Plant Industry has sent 
in 168 specimens of crude drug substances that will serve to fill many 
gaps in the systematic exhibitions of plant products. The U.S. Forest 
Products Laboratory has contributed, in exchange, 44 examples of 
wood-paper pulps and papers made therefrom. ‘The Forest Economist 
of India has presented 19 valuable forest products of India that 
assist greatly in the representation of the economics of several plant 
families, and the Section of Modeling, during the last month of its labors, 
turned over 7 models of desmid species; 9 models of diatom species; a 
full-size reproduction of a leafy, fruiting branch of the Horsechestnut 
tree; a full-size reproduction of a flowering twig of the same; a full-size 
reproduction of a pandanus fruit, a chocolate fruit, cakes of manu- 
factured chocolate, and several sections of the fruit of Connarus. The 
important additions to the herbarium during the past year comprise 
the following: The private herbarium of Mr. Geo. F. Curtiss, consisting 
of ferns of central North America, presented by Miss E. Curtiss; the 
private herbarium of Miss Carrie A. Reynolds, consisting of plants 
collected in northwestern North America, presented by herself; the 
private herbarium of Mr. C. W. Dusener, consisting of plants collected 
locally in Illinois and Indiana, presented by himself; and the following:

In the Department of Geology a number of accessions have been 
received by gift, many of which are of unusual value. The most im- 
portant of these is a skeleton of the American mammoth formerly be- 
longing to the Chicago Academy of Sciences, which was presented 
through the generosity of Mr. George Manierre. This skeleton was, 
until recently, the only mounted skeleton of a mammoth on exhibition 
in America, and it still remains one of the most nearly complete and 
important. The skeleton was found in 1878 in Spokane County, 


382 Fretp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


Washington. Owing to its fragile nature and the probability that it 
might not remain long in the present Museum building, it was decided 
not to remount the specimen at this time, and it has not, therefore, been 
placed on exhibition. A valuable collection of minerals, with some fos- 
sils, the whole numbering about 300 specimens, was received from Miss 
E. Curtiss. Many of these specimens were of exceptional beauty and 
rarity. A somewhat similar, though smaller, collection numbering 48 
specimens was received from Harold Wegg. It was chiefly valuable 
for its series of Mazon Creek fossils. Two large specimens of fossil 
logs, collected by Prof. R. D. Salisbury on his recent trip to Patagonia, 
were received during the year and made an appreciated addition. From 
Mr. Charles Winston eight exceptionally fine specimens of Carbonifer- 
ous plants from Pennsylvania and Rhode Island were received. Some 
of these were of importance as having been cotypes of Lesquereux and 
all are large and well-preserved specimens. Two excellent specimens 
of fossil glass sponge, Hydnoceras bathense, in group form were gener- 
ously presented by the New York State Museum. An excellent speci- 
men of fossil fish from Wyoming was presented by Mrs. E. F. Goodall. 
The skull of a Bison, found in an excavation near 67th Street, Chicago, 
was presented by Thomas Farley. This is one of few occurrences known 
showing the distribution of the buffalo in this vicinity. D. 5S. Renne, 
Verona, Illinois, presented two large specimens of septaria, which are 
interesting specimens of this type. From the Dolese & Shepard Com- 
pany were received two excellent specimens of Orthoceras found near 
Chicago. Besides the above a number of specimens of economic 
interest were received through the kindness of donors. Among 
these may be mentioned six specimens of gold and silver ore from 
San Bernardino County, California, presented by Dr. T. A. Dumont; 
27 examples of minerals and ores from Montana, presented by 
Mr. J. E. Strawn; 15 specimens of gold ore from the Bella Majfiafia 
Mine, Tlatlaya, Mexico, from William Brockway; 10 specimens illus- 
trating the manufacture of tungsten lamps, from the General Electric 
Company; two specimens of platinum and gold ore from the Boss Gold 
Mining Company of Nevada; three specimens of vanadium ore from 
the American Vanadium Company; 46 specimens of asphalt and its 
products and two large photographs of Trinidad Lake, from the Bar- 
ber Asphalt Company, and 11 specimens of coal tar and its products 
from the Barrett Manufacturing Company. Dr. F. C. Nicholas pre- 
sented a series of instructive specimens, which represented ores and 
lavas of Sonora, Mexico, and Messrs. L. V. Kenkel and H. V. Guild 
about 150 specimens of fossils and minerals from Idaho. In response to 
a number of requests sent to producers of building stones and marbles,

a number of cubes and marble slabs were added to the building stone 
collection, making it more representative than formerly. Twenty-one 
specimens were received from these donors. By exchange a number of 
important specimens were received, the most important being a large 
and complete skeleton of the European Cave Bear from Austria. This 
and a skull of the fossil whale (Zeuglodon) from Egypt were received 
from Dr. F. Krantz. From the University of California there was re- 
ceived by exchange a practically complete skeleton of the sabre-tooth 
Cat from the Rancho la Brea beds of California. From Grebel, Wendler 
& Company there was received a fine series of Brazilian phenacite crys- 
tals, numbering 21 specimens. From Mr. George 8. Scott of New York 
City were received by exchange 14 specimens of various minerals; from 
Prof. H. B. North of Rutgers College, 8 specimens of pseudomorphs 
after marcasite; and from the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, three 
large polished specimens showing the occurrence of the silver and nick- 
el ores of Cobalt, Ontario. By purchase the Bishop Canyon meteorite 
was obtained entire; also the Scott City meteorite, nearly complete, . 
and a large etched section of the Mount Edith, Australia, meteorite. 
Other purchases included: 163 specimens showing varieties and modes 
of occurrence of German amber; an interesting series, numbering 42 
specimens, showing products of the eruption of the volcano of Sakur- 
ajima, a specimen of a “‘bread crust’? bomb in this series being of 
especial importance; a large specimen of Orthoceras, measuring six feet 
in length; a series of models of diamonds cut from the Cullinan dia- 
mond; and 11 teeth and two tusks of a young mastodon. 

The Curator of Zodlogy reports that an important addition to the 
Entomological collection was received from Dr. William Barnes of 
Decatur, Illinois, who presented to the Museum a collection of about 
3,500 moths, which are in fine condition and many of them will ulti- 
mately be used for the exhibition collection. Miss Elizabeth F. Curtiss 
also presented to the Museum a collection of butterflies containing some 
1,700 specimens, which may supply some material for exhibition pur- 
poses. A rare species of Sphinx Moth (Trogolegnum pseudambulyx) 
from Mexico, a gift from Mr. B. Preston Clark of Boston, was new 
to the Museum collection. The mammals and birds received from 
Museum Expeditions were of much scientific value and contained sev- 
eral new forms, which are being studied and will be the subjects of 
papers now being prepared for publication. The most important 
donation received was that of 26 large mammals and 3 birds from East 
Africa, presented by Mr. Brent Altsheler of Louisville, Kentucky. The 
collection consisted of 3 Ostriches, 4 Impala Antelopes, 1 Hartebeest, 
2 Waterbuck, 1 Wart Hog, 2 Elands, 1 Lioness, 3 Grant’s Gazelle, 3

Oryx, 2 Dik Dik, 1 Kiipspringer, 4 Gerenuk, 1 Buffalo, and 1 Jackal. 
Mr. E. B. Williamson of Bluffton, Indiana, presented a number of 
birds during the year, and his continued interest is much appreciated. 
Judge R. M. Barnes of Lacon, Illinois, presented a body of the rare 
Trumpeter Swan. Analbino crow was purchased. The Osteological col- 
lection was enlarged by 445 skulls cleaned for the study collection, and 
5 skeletons were prepared and installed in the exhibition collection. 

EXPEDITIONS AND FiELD Worx-—-At the beginning of the year the 
Museum had two zodlogical collectors in the field: Malcolm P. Ander- 
son in Venezuela, and Robert H. Becker in Brazil. In January Mr. 
Anderson proceeded to Peru and worked in high altitudes in the Andes 
Mountains east of Chimbote, later going to Lake Junin (altitude 
14,000 feet). After leaving Lake Junin May 7th, he spent a month 
collecting in the vicinity of San Ramon on the Rio Chanchamayo, and 
sailed for home early in June. While Mr. Anderson secured valuable 
material, the specimens were less in number than could have been 
expected, owing largely to a series of unfortunate accidents. In Janu- 
ary, Mr. Becker proceeded from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to Lagoa 
Santa in the State of Minas Geraes, where he made an important col- 
lection of birds and mammals. He then proceeded up the Rio San 
Francisco to Barra, and from there pushed on up the Rio Preto to and 
beyond Formosa, a small native town in a very little known region in the 
interior of Brazil. This country has not been worked by collectors, and 
it is unfortunate that after surmounting difficulties in reaching there, 
his stay had to be limited to two weeks. Interesting mammals 
and birds were secured, some of which are new and will be the subject of 
a publication in due time. Coming down the Rio Preto on a raft, which 
he built, Mr. Becker reached Barra safely, and from there went on to 
Bahia and took a steamer to Trinidad, where he had been directed to 
secure material for a group of Oil Birds (Steatornis caripensis). The 
birds, eggs, nests, and accessory material were obtained, also photo- 
graphs of the caves in which the birds live, and the group is now in 
process of construction. 

INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT, AND PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT.—A most en- 
couraging feature of the work performed in the Department of 
Anthropology during the current year is that, despite the reduction of 
the force rendered necessary in January, the progress of installation 
has been fully maintained to a remarkable degree, and, in fact, the work 
in every line of activity has been pursued with energy and devotion. 
A total of 70 new cases has been placed on permanent exhibition, all 
fully and completely labeled. The material installed in these cases is 
distributed as follows: Southwest Ethnology, 5 cases; New Hebrides, 12 


JAN., IQI5. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 385 


cases; Admiralty Islands, 12 cases; Fiji, 8 cases; Chinese, 19 cases; Tibetan, 
14 cases. As regards American ethnology, one case of Apache medicine 
shirts, one case of painted buffalo hides, two cases bearing on Paiute 
ethnology from California and Nevada, and one case of Pima storage 
baskets have been added to the Southwest Section, under the personal 
supervision of Assistant Curator Owen. Hall 8 has been cleared of 
nine cases of Borneo, three of Andaman and Nicobar, and one of Malay 
Peninsula material, these thirteen cases being stored indefinitely with 
the great number of installed cases already on the floor of the East 
Court. As Halls 2 and 3 have recently been devoted to the exhibition 
of New Hebrides, Admiralty and Fiji ethnology of the Joseph N. Field 
Collections, this arrangement resulted in the necessity of removing the 
following cases for storing in the East Court: three Sauk and Fox, one 
Iroquois, one painted buffalo hides, two Apache, two Warm Springs, 
three Shoshoni, one Klikitat, one Yakima, two Ute, two Wasco, one 
Comanche, one Bannock, one Kutenai, one Umatilla, and two Nez 
Perce. More than ninety boxes containing the Stanley McCormick _ 
Hopi material have been unpacked in Hall 16. The material has been 
classified and placed temporarily in new cases and storage bases, await- 
ing permanent installation with the exhibits of Hopi ethnology which, 
for the past fifteen years, have been displayed in Halls 15, 16, and 17. 
In Hall 17 the Hopi Home Case has been completely overhauled, the 
clothing renovated, and the five life-size figures repainted. Nine altar 
cases in the same Hall have also been subjected to a most careful and 
thorough examination and readjustment. 

Peruvian pottery, particularly from Chancay, and Egyptian tomb 
tablets have been properly treated and cared for to insure their preser- 
vation. About 400 photographs which had been stored in Hall 
48 for many years have been identified as belonging to about thirty 
tribes, and each lot has been placed in the cases where the respective 
tribal group is represented. Many of these prints, varying in character 
and quality, show scenes no longer obtainable, and before being perma- 
nently installed in the various cases, should be copied on permanent 
paper for exhibition purposes, while the old solio prints may be pre- 
served for the Department albums. 

During the year Assistant Curator Lewis has installed thirty-two 
cases of Melanesian material. These, with cases installed towards 
the end of the previous year, include the collections from Fiji, the 
New Hebrides Islands, and the Admiralty Islands. Assistant Curator 
Cole codperated with Dr. Lewis and superintended the installation 
of the material from the Fiji Islands, which fills seven cases, illustrating 
the clothing and ornaments, household utensils, weapons, and various 


386 Firetp Museum or Natura History — Reports, VoL. IV. 


industries of the natives. The manufacture of tapa, an industry 
common throughout the whole of the South Seas, is well illustrated 
by numerous specimens of the implements used in the process, as 
well as by a great variety of finished product. Fourteen cases of 
New Hebrides material make an exhibit fairly representative of the 
culture of these islands, many of which have now almost completely 
lost their original features. The collections are most complete from 
Malekula, the largest and least known of the whole New Hebrides group. 
In this island alone over twenty languages are spoken, and the culture 
is by no means uniform. The collection illustrating the ceremonial and 
religious life of this people,—consisting of carved images, masks, pre- 
pared skulls, and figures of the dead,—is unusually complete. The 
various types of weapons employed by the tribe are also well illustrated, 
though many forms still remain to be represented. The Admiralty 
Island collection now occupies fourteen cases, while a considerable 
portion of it is not yet placed on exhibition. This collection is notable 
for the wealth in objects characteristic of the high degree of skill reached 
by these people in wood carving and decorative art. Particularly 
striking are the huge drums, finely carved food-bowls, some of them 
four feet in diameter, decorated wooden beds, and numerous carved 
images of various sizes,— all manifesting a well-developed artistic sense. 
There are several series showing the variations of design from realistic 
to conventional and geometrical stages, such as displayed by the forms 
of decorations on spears, daggers, and combs. Interesting groups of 
decorative elements are also seen in their personal ornaments, among 
which are included over 300 breast ornaments of shell and tortoise-shell, 
all different in decorative design despite the uniformity of type, and 
presenting excellent source-material for the study of variability of 
ornamental forms. There is also shown an extensive series of shell- 
bead dancing-aprons, which are rare. The process in the making of 
these shell beads is illustrated by numerous specimens in the consecutive 
stages of the work. Methods of fishing, including that of fishing by 
means of flying kites from canoes, which is restricted to a few localities, 
and the manner of preparing articles of food, are likewise shown, to- 
gether with models of various types of canoes. Worthy of particular 
mention are the four remarkable feather masks from Hansa Bay, New 
Guinea, presented by the late Mr. Joseph N. Field, and now placed on 
exhibition in the East Court. The Melanesian collections, thus briefly 
outlined in their main contents, have been assembled in Halls 2 and 3, 
which were thrown open to the public in the beginning of November. 
In addition to the installation and labeling of cases, much work has 
been accomplished by Assistant Curator Lewis in overhauling and sorting 


AN., IQI5. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 387 


out the different collections from other parts of Melanesia already in 
the Museum, many of which had not been catalogued. This cataloguing 
is now being pushed on with energy, and approximately 900 specimens 
of the Parkinson collection, as well as a few other small collections, have 
been entered and numbered. 

In the Asiatic Section installation has progressed steadily. Two 
large special cases designed for the Chinese stage-scenes were delivered 
in January, and all material and labels relating to these exhibits 
having been fully prepared in advance, their installation was achieved 
without delay. This completed the exhibits of Hall 53, which is now 
entirely devoted to a display of Chinese theatricals. Moreover, two 
new Halls have been added this year to the existing six, referred to and 
described in preceding Reports, and made accessible to the public. 
The Tibetan collection secured under the auspices of the Mrs. Black- 
stone Fund has received a further extension in Hall 50, which consists 
of 12 cases illustrating the domestic, social, and religious life of the 
Tibetan people in the following phases: objects used in the household; . 
consumption of food, including articles of food, as well as the utensils 
serving for their preparation; consumption of tea; consumption of 
spirits and tobacco; basketry; ceremonial silk scarves exchanged by 
people in social intercourse; writing and printing; charms and domestic 
art; musical instruments, censers and other objects, and paraphernalia 
employed in the temples for religious worship. The case illustrating 
the process in the production of paper and books is of great culture- 
historical interest; it forms a counterpart of the case arranged two years 
ago and displaying the arts of printing and engraving in China and 
Japan. It contains exquisite specimens of Tibetan manuscript work 
written in gold and silver on black-lacquered paper, manuscripts illu- 
minated by colored miniatures, in which the Lama scholars excelled as 
successfully as the medizval monks, and fine samples of Tibetan and 
Mongol prints; especially notable are some books printed in vermilion 
in the Imperial Palace of Peking (so-called palace editions), and one of 
the largest and heaviest books ever turned out (93% pounds in weight; 
pages measuring 2 feet 1014 inches in length and 14% inches in width). 
The case, further, contains an interesting autograph written in vermilion 
ink by the Dalai Lama with his own hand and transmitted by him to 
Mr. Laufer for presentation to the Field Museum when he had an 
interview with him at Peking in 1908; there is also on view an attractive 
series of seals with wax reproductions of their inscriptions, writing- 
utensils, and appliances of the printer. Hall 49, which had served 
during the last years as a storage-house for the East-Asiatic material 
and as the basis of operation to prepare and catalogue it, has been 


388 FieLp Museum or Natura History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


entirely cleared, as it is planned to utilize this room for the continuation 
of the Tibetan exhibits, which will comprise means of transportation, 
saddlery, industries, costumes, jewelry, painting, and the culture of the 
Tibetan nomad tribes. Owing to this arrangement it was made possible 
to relieve the congestion prevailing in the East Court by transferring 
24 new cases to Hall 49. A Tibetan coracle and the trappings of a 
horse, Shown on a papier-maché model, are already installed in this Hall. 

Much time was consumed on the final installation of the large 
collection of Chinese stone sculpture. The pieces are of great dimen- 
sions and heavy in weight, and required drilling of their bases to secure 
solid and permanent intrenchment on the shelves. The material is 
installed in 12 two-foot cases, eight of which have been placed in the 
Rotunda of the East Annex, Hall 58, which seemed to offer the most 
suitable location. In order to make the best use of the available space, 
the principle of concentric arrangement has been adopted, the centre 
being occupied by a small special case sheltering an octagonal pillar 
inscription of the T'ang dynasty,— an important historical document 
which records the capture of the city of Taochow in Kansu Province 
through the Tibetans in the eighth century. From this centre radiates 
the collection of sculpture with an inner ring of four cases arranged 
in a square, and fortified by an outer ring of four others, flanking the 
niches. The distribution, balancing, and classification of the material 
in the cases proved a task beset with no small difficulties, partially due 
to the difference in bulk and weight of the single sculptures, partially 
owing to the repetition of the same types through the various periods of 
Chinese history. A chronological principle and simultaneously one 
according to religious types and subjects has been brought into effect. 
The collection well demonstrates the development of Chinese sculp- 
ture in its total range from the fourth to the eighteenth century, em- 
bracing the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism. Three main 
chronological divisions have been established: the early or pre-T‘ang 
period, fourth to sixth century, medieval or T'ang period (618-906), 
and the retrospective modern or after-T‘ang epoch. The assemblage 
of ancient Taoist sculpture is probably unique and exceptionally rich 
in beautiful statues of the Supreme Deity of the Taoist pantheon; it 
fills two cases which have been added to the Taoist section in Halls 46 
and 47,— one of these harboring in addition tombstones and inscription 
tablets of the T'ang period. A goodly number of Taoist sculptures 
has been incorporated in the Buddhistic department, in order to bring 
out the idea of the dependence of Taoist on Indian-Buddhist art and the 
interrelations of the two religions. As regards the exhibits of Buddhist 
statuary, the general scheme of division followed is: the Buddhas, the

Bodhisatvas, and the clergy, under each of the three chronological 
epochs. One case is entirely devoted to the portrait-statues of Bud- 
dhist monks from the T'ang period to the present, as in this manner a 
most striking phase in the religious and mental development of China 
is very forcibly impressed upon us. Nothing could better illustrate the 
ennobling influence of Buddhism on Oriental society and its lofty intel- 
lectual aspirations than these portraits of religious leaders with their 
refined and spiritualized features, and their sermon of salvation. It 
should be said that the present condition of the Halls does not permit 
of adherence to a rigidly scientific system of classification of these 
exhibits. 

In the Department of Botany cases representing the following 
economic exhibitions have been installed and fully labeled during the 
year: four case units of Varnish Gums; one case unit illustrating the 
Cycad family and its products, especially its starch roots and starches; 
one case unit containing the Gingko and the Yew families and their 
characteristic fruits and utilizations; a case illustrating in complete . 
groups the Bacteria and their life history, the Diatoms and their methods 
of reproduction and growth, the Desmids and their life characteristics, 
and the unicellular Algze; a case illustrating all the phases in the life 
history of the Marchantiacez; one unit case containing the Morning- 
glory family and characteristic products; three case units of the Rubiads 
and their products, including an interesting reproduction of the plant 
known as the “‘living ant’s nest”’; one unit case illustrating the products 
of the Maple family; a unit devoted to the fruit of the Coco-de-mer palm 
and the uses to which it is put; one unit case each comprising the 
products of the Milk-weed and the Horsechestnut families; a case 
containing both the Passionflower and the Benzoin families and their 
utilized products; two units exemplifying the various uses supplied by 
the Ferns; three units devoted to the Grass family, especially the fibers 
yielded by various species; one case each exemplifying the characters 
and uses of fibers yielded by the Screw-pine, the Sedge, the Palm, the 
Eel-grass and Banana families; one case exemplifying the botany and 
products of the Snakeroot family; one case containing both the Elm and 
the Protead families; one case containing new products of the Fig 
family; two unit cases devoted to the fruit characters, and various useful 
products of the Sumach family; one case devoted to the products of 
Yam and the Iris families; a case containing various characters and use- 
ful products of the Coca family; one case illustrating the Lignum-vite 
and the Quassia families; one unit case showing the products of the 
Mahogany family; two units devoted to the Connarus and the Bean 
families; one case comprising the characters and useful materials yielded 


390 Fretp Musreum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


by the Buttercup and the Akebia families and another the Barberry and 
the Moonseed families; and three cases representing the botany and 
products of the Monkey-pot and the Pomegranate families. 

In the Department of Geology two large mounts have been installed 
in Hall 36. One of these is the large Leptomeryx slab described in last 
year’s report. This has been installed in a floor case of standard type, 
714x 4% feet in size, in which it makes an effective and attractive 
exhibit. The other large mount installed is a skeleton of a Cave Bear 
from Triest, Austria, which has been placed in a temporary case. The 
skeleton is remarkable for its large size and completeness. In connec- 
tion with the installation of these mounts some rearrangement of the 
other cases was made. There were also added to the exhibition series 
of fossil vertebrates a skull of Aceratherium and one of Ancodon, 
complete skeletal fore and hind legs of the fossil camel Oxydactylus 
and a skeletal hind leg of Alticamelus. The two large fossil logs from 
Patagonia, collected by Professor Salisbury, have been installed in 
this Hall. One of these logs is eight feet in height and two feet in 
diameter and the other is nearly as large. The structure of the wood 
is beautifully preserved and the evidences of former tree growth are 
so unmistakable as to make them impressive specimens. The large 
slab of Uintacrinus, which has for some time been exhibited in this Hall, 
was found to be undergoing considerable disintegration owing to im- 
perfect adherence of the slab to the plaster backing. It was therefore 
taken down, the thin exhibition surface removed and carefully scraped 
and readjusted. This was then remounted on a firm plaster bed. By 
this means a permanent adherence of the slab to the plaster has been 
obtained and a durable and attractive mounting achieved. In Hall 32 
the large specimen of Orthoceras from Troygrove, Illinois, and a number 
of smaller specimens were installed and some minor rearrangements 
made. In Hall 30a series of models showing the diamonds cut from the 
Cullinan diamond has been placed in connection with the model of that 
diamond. In the same Hall a large number of mineral specimens have 
been added to the series on exhibition, less important specimens having 
been removed wherever necessary to provide room. ‘The series added 
includes a number of new species or occurrences that have been acquired 
in recent years, so that all important mineral specimens may now be 
considered to be on exhibition. In Hall 31 the series of lavas and vol- 
canic products has been thoroughly rearranged in geographical groups 
and a number of specimens added. The additions include the series of 
specimens from the Japanese volcano of Sakurajima. The series of 
concretions, faults, and veins in this collection was also rearranged and 
some additions made. Some marcasite stalactites which had begun to 


JAN., 1915. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 391 


show signs of disintegration, were thoroughly treated with shellac and 
further decay checked. In connection with the rearrangement of the 
structural collections in this Hall, that of the study collection was car- 
ried on and considerable interchange of specimens made. About one- 
quarter of the entire exhibit, which occupies fifteen cases, was com- 
pletely reinstalled in order to bring the series to a satisfactory condition. 
To the economic collections in Hall 34 a large number of specimens has 
been added and a considerable amount of reinstallation performed. In 
several of the cases the exhibits were entirely removed in order to allow 
painting of the interiors. These interiors are now all a uniform black. 
New series installed in this Hall include a number of rare earths; a series 
illustrating the manufacture of tungsten wire; a series of minerals 
resembling gold; several series illustrating the uses of cobalt, nickel, 
zinc, and tin; a number of additions to the building stone collection, 
including several marble slabs; and a model of a log washer for iron ores. 
The large specimens of ores in this Hall, which had hitherto rested 
directly on the floors of the cases and the finish of which they injured — 
on account of their weight and jagged surfaces, have been provided with 
individual wooden supports placed so as not to be visible. Further 
injury to the cases has thus been averted. Additions to the collections : 
illustrating the uses of cobalt, zinc, and nickel compounds have been 
prepared in the Museum work-rooms and placed on exhibition. These 
include the pigments which have these metals for base. They are 
shown as varnished coatings on blocks of wood four inches square. 
Beside each block is placed a tube of the pigment in oil partly emptied 
into a small watch glass, in order to show its color in quantity. Besides 
the zinc pigments there have been added to the collection illustrating 
uses of zinc, a dry cell with the zinc exposed to illustrate electrical uses 
of zinc; a zine etching block and a print from it; a jar of zinc ointment, 
and powdered willemite used as a fluorescent screen in X-ray and 
radioactive work. A beginning has been made of a collection to illus- 
trate uses of the rare earths and others of the less familiarelements. A 
Nernst lamp illustrates uses of zirconia, and a Welsbach mantle shows 
an important application of thoria and ceria that has made monazite 
valuable. A series of specimens shows all stages of the evolution of the 
filament of the tungsten electric light from the mineral scheelite to the 
wire ready to place in the lamp. One of the most interesting uses of 
titanium is shown in an example of the yellow enamel used by dentists. 
In order to obtain space for these additions, a collection of exhibited 
antimony ores was reduced. There has been added to the gold series a 
group of specimens illustrating the appearance of those minerals which 
are most frequently mistaken for gold. The series consists of two 


392 Firetp Museum or Natura. History — Reports, Vot. IV. 


specimens of gold in quartz and flake gold for comparative purposes and 
selected specimens of fool’s gold or pyrite, copper pyrite, native copper 
in slate, and two specimens of mica, one of which is mixed with sand 
and one is pure. To the collection of building stones exhibited, 27 cubes 
and slabs have been added. A large specimen of fire clay from Missouri, 
received in 1912, has been installed in a case in this Hall, space being 
obtained by moving some less important specimens. Some of the less 
important pigments have been removed from their place of exhibit in 
Hall 33 and in their place has been installed the collection of coal tar 
products presented by the Barrett Manufacturing Company. The 
production of dyes, etc., from these substances make them of especial 
interest at the present time. Some additions have been made to the 
coal mine model in order to make some of its features more readily 
appreciable. Some of the underground portion has been cut away in 
order to show the position of the ventilating shaft and its connection 
with the hoisting shaft. This makes more evident the course of the 
ventilating system. In order to make the exhibit of washed iron ores, 
more instructive a small model of a log washer was constructed by the 
Assistant Curator and installed in connection with that exhibit. The 
model shows a trough containing a log bearing a series of fins arranged 
in a screw-like manner; a hopper and track on which the unwashed 
ores are brought to the washer; an engine house containing the en- 
gine for providing power for operating the washer; and a car for remoy- 
ing the washed ore. A scale of one-third of an inch to the foot was 
carefully adhered to in constructing the model, such a size having been 
adopted in order that the model might not overbalance the collection. 
The model is chiefly intended to assist the label in making the collection 
more instructive. The usefulness of such models has been very favor- 
ably commented on by visitors, on account of the ease with which the 
details of the models can be studied as compared with the noise, confu- 
sion, and complexity encountered in visits to large working plants. 
Some improvements have been made in the installation of the collection 
of petroleums shown in Alcove 107, chief among them being replacement 
of the large two-gallon bottles of petroleum products by smaller bottles, 
which are uniform in pattern with those in which the crude petroleums 
are installed. The appearance of the collection has thus been much 
improved. The installation of the other petroleum products has like- 
wise been somewhat revised andimproved. The series showing asphalts 
and their uses received from the Barber Asphalt Company, with two 
large photographs of Trinidad Lake, has been installed in Hall 35. 
Several new specimens of graphite have also been added to the graphite 
collection in this Hall. The specimens illustrating lithology and

structural and dynamical geology, which occupy the drawers under the 
lithological exhibits, have been completely reinstalled; all specimens 
have been placed in trays in a logical order and labeled, the drawers 
have been numbered, and indexes have been prepared so that any 
specimen wanted can be found at once and can be shown to anyone 
desiring to study it. Material was prepared for several new cases for 
the work of the Harris Fund, in addition to a number of duplicates of 
those previously prepared. The new subjects illustrated include semi- 
precious stones, varieties of common rock, volcanic products, and coal- 
tar products. In the laboratory of vertebrate paleontology the prepara- 
tion of vertebrate fossils has been actively continued and a considerable 
amount of material has been prepared. A skeleton of the sabre-tooth 
tiger was prepared for mounting; completion of the preparation and 
mounting of the slab containing 25 skeletons of the Water Deer, Lepto- 
meryx, described in last year’s report, was accomplished; the large 
slab of Uintacrinus was taken apart and entirely remounted; a skeleton 
of the Cave Bear was repaired and remounted; a nearly complete | 
skeleton of the fossil camel Oxydactylus and a skull of Elotherium were 
prepared for exchange; a partial skeleton of Oxydactylus and skulls 
of Aceratherium and Ancodon were prepared for exhibition; a large 
specimen of Orthoceras was cleaned of plaster and a durable mount 
provided; the skeleton of the Washington mammoth presented by Mr. 
George Manierre was disarticulated and carefully packed in boxes so 
as to provide safety in storage; a set of jaws of the large shark Char- 
charodon was cast in plaster and mounted for the purpose of replacing 
the former exhibit of this kind which was somewhat defective as to de- 
tail; some progress was made in mounting a skeleton of Canis diurus, 
and the entire collection of teeth of mammoths and mastodons, some 
of which were undergoing disintegration, was carefully treated in such a 
manner as to insure its preservation. 

In the Department of Zodlogy a large habitat group of American 
Bison or Buffalo, consisting of five animals, a large old bull, a young 
bull, two females, and a calf, has been added to the exhibition collection. 
The scene is laid in Nebraska. Burrowing Owls, Prairie Dogs, and 
Rattlesnakes, which are common in that prairie country, are included in 
the group. The following single mammals have been installed and 
placed on exhibition in the serial collection: Chinese Takin (Budorcas 
bedfordi), a rare large mammal; Kansu Deer (Cervus kansuensis); 
Spectacled Bear (Tremarctos ornatus), a rare species from the Andes of 
Peru secured by Museum expedition, as was also the White-lipped 
Peccary (Tayassu pecart); Drill (Papio leucocephalus); White-tailed 
Mongoose (Ichneumia albicauda), and Porcupine (Erethizon dorsatum). 


304 Fretp Musreum oF Naturat History — Reports, Vou. IV. 


Painted backgrounds for a large group of Moose and a group of South 
American Capybara, including a Jaguar, have been prepared, and con- 
siderable work on the accessories for both these groups has already been 
done. The mounting of the specimens for the Moose group, very fine 
specimens secured by a Museum expedition last fall, is progressing in a 
satisfactory manner. A new method for making artificial bodies 
(manikins) for small mammals was introduced by Taxidermist Pray, 
which seems a decided improvement over the old way. A striking 
group of East African Buffalo, created by Carl E. Akeley, was 
installed in the South Court late in the year. This group, which 
includes two old bulls, one young bull, a cow, and a calf, is an impres- 
sive example of the possibilities of modern taxidermy. The five bulky 
animals are so skilfully and naturally grouped that the effect of space 
and power is not lost even in the confinement of a case of moderate size. 
In addition to simplicity and fidelity to nature both in grouping and in 
modeling, the individual animals of this group have an unusual quality 
produced by a new and superior technique in the treatment of the skin. 
The principal feature of this method consists in applying the tanned 
skin to the model in a dry instead of moistened condition. The result 
in the finished specimen, especially in the case of thinly haired animals, 
is much more likelife than that of other methods, the skin appearing 
soft and natural instead of hard and unyielding. In the exhibition 
of comparative osteology 445 skulls were cleaned, and the follow- 
ing skeletons mounted and installed: Gila Monster (Heloderma 
horridum); Box Turtle (Cistudo carolina); Jacana (Jacana spinosa); 
Pigeon (Columba livia), and Cave Bat (Eonycteris spelea). A large 
habitat group of birds representing bird life in the far north on Walrus 
Island, Alaska, has been completed and placed on exhibition. This 
group includes 51 birds with nests, eggs, and several nestlings; some of 
them, notably the Red-faced Cormorant, are rare and are becoming 
more so each year. Among the most interesting birds in this group may 
be mentioned, in addition to the Red-faced Cormorants, theTufted 
Puffins, Horned Puffins, Paroquet Auklets, and various species of 
Gulls (among them the Red-legged Kittiwake Gull), Murres, etc. 
An instructive feature of the group is in showing the Glaucous and 
Glaucous-winged Gulls stealing and eating the eggs of the Pallas Murres, 
which breed in great numbers on this barren, isolated island. For the 
serial collection there were mounted: 1 Coot (Fulica americana); 1 Red- 
shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus); 2 Kittlitz Murrelets (Brachyramphus 
brevirostris), and 1 Harlequin Duck (Histrionicus histrionicus). A 
number of bird skins from fresh specimens sent in for the study collec- 
tion, including the Snowy Owl, were prepared. A number of fishes and 


JAN., 1915. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DrRECTOR. 395 


crustaceans have been painted for the exhibition collection. One 
exhibition case of mounted fishes from California was installed, and 88 
fishes, 79 from Florida and California and 9 from Alaska, have been 
mounted and painted. Included are many handsome species, among 
them being a number of Salmon and Trout from California. A con- 
siderable number of specimens of various insects, moths, butterflies, 
beetles, etc., have been pinned and prepared. Early in the year 16 A- 
shaped cases were delivered for installing the exhibition collection of 
shells and insects to replace the flat cases at present in use. The Assist- - 
ant Curator of Entomology devoted considerable time to rearranging 
shells for the new method of installation. Upon the return of Collector 
Becker from South America he was added to the staff of assistants in 
this Department and devoted his time to this work. 

THE N. W. HARRIS PUBLIC SCHOOL EXTENSION OF FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY. 
—The Curator reports that the practical inauguration of Mr. Harris’ 
benefaction has been attended with success. The cases prepared dur- 
ing the year number 207, making, with the cases previously installed, 
a grand‘total of 286. The pupils in the public schools examining 
these collections during the year numbered 368,044. The schools pro- 
vided with cases were 326, divided as follows: Main Schools 266, 
Branch Schools 39 and Vacation Schools 21. Each Main School was 
provided with not less than 6, each Branch School with not less than 
3, and each Vacation School with not less than 12 cases at a time. 
The automobile delivery car designed for the distribution of the 
circulating collections was delivered during the year and has proved 
satisfactory. It has a capacity of 45 cases and travels each day of the 
school week approximately 80 to 100 miles. Thirty-four of the cases 
will be exhibited at the Panama Pacific International Exposition, San 
Francisco, during the coming year.

BUILT-IN HOLLOW MANIKIN METHOD FOR MOUNTING SMALL MAMMALS. 


The initial step is to wire the specimen as though the ordinary method of mount- 
ing were to be followed. The inside of the skin is then given a coating of poison 
paste and immediately afterwards the composition is put in and modelled. The 
most satisfactory composition used so far is one made of library paste, water, and a 
pinch of arsenic, to which is added whiting and sufficient chopped tow to make the 
mixture of the proper consistency for modelling but nevertheless sticky. The cavity 
in the manikin is then lined with cloth and filled with sawdust, which, when the 
specimen is dry, is removed by means of the plug (p) inserted in the end of the body, 
or in the side, if the animal is to be in a recumbent position. Depressions in the 
anatomy are maintained by the use of insect pins, which are cut off flush when the 
skin has adhered properly to the manikin. The legs of very small mammals may 
be filled wholly with composition, as is shown in the figure (c), but the legs of larger 
mammals should have a wrapped core. The tail wire (t) is merely wrapped with 
cotton to secure the required thickness. The advantage of this hollow manikin 
method is that the mounted specimen is light, very durable and almost indestructible. 
(Originated and used by Leon L. Pray.)
