TIE ANTHRoPoLOGICAL SOCIETY, of Washing
ton, net last night, the president, Maj J. W.
Powell in the chair, and DR.. Elmer r. Reynolds
secretary. The chair read from n newspape
the humorous sketch OF the fox, the rabbit, and
the tar baby, which he stated he had heard
related many times in his Intercourse with
various Indian tribes, only in different forms.
II appeared to be common story among In
dianS and also among the negroes. Prof o. F.
Mason, from the council, made favorable re-
port on the nominations OF Lieut. N w. KIM
ball, U.S.N., Mr.. J. II. Larcomb. as active
members, and Rev. Edmund F. Slater for cor
responding membership, and they were unani-
ton Of the members to new publications. "Me-
mOir on the SoapStone QuaTIieS in the District of
Columbia" byiProf. Elmer r. Reynolds; and ''The
Shell Mounds OF Omost," by Prof. Edward None,
OF the University OF Toxic, Japan. The memoir
Is printed In English and profusely illustrated
IN a creditable manner by Japanese artists.
Prof. Reynolds read an interesting paper on
turtle back celtS" several of which he had
found on the shores OF the Eastern Branch
which he exhibited, claiming that they were
distinctive implement used by the aborgines In
nature OF the adj used by our carpenters
They were used by the Indians for various pur-
poses but more particularly In forming their
wooden canoes-''dug outs" Major Powell
stated that the UteS and other Indians of the
west use similar implement in digging the
roots and herbs for their medicine. DR.. De IIass
0lSSented from the proposition advanced by
Prof. Reynolds that these ceits were finished
and distinctive implement, and said there
scarcity would not justify such theory. He
thought their peculiar form was merely acct
dental; that they were merely water polished
PEOPLES lie had seen many cabinet collections
OF stone implements both in this and other
countries, but had never seen any evidences OF
such claim. DR.. De HaSs described some
specimens OF stone agricultural implements
found on the line OF the Mississippi river and in
its mounds. and thought these celts might have
been used for such purposes as there was a
resemblance between them. discussion arose
on the subject OF canaballsm, and the opinion
was general that canabaliSm did not exist
among the North American Indians, but such
ideas were repugnant to them.
