I have seen no arrow-heads made of this
material made by the aborigines. II
found in sufficient quantities il would
make beautiful building material and
some of it is worthy of the skill OF the
lapidary.
place where the material used in making
arrowheads found here are found in guam
titles. Much of it is doubtless wood in
certain stages of petrifaction. There is
petrified tree few miles up the Umatilia
river. The specimens have of it are too
soft to make arrow-heads Of, as it is of
crumbling nature. There are petrified
juniper trees and roots in the John Day
country that is similar in material to
much Of the material found here called
agate and wood opal. There are
arrow-heads in my collection made
81 s Of obs aIsa1a Jet found at Cold
springs and back from Umatilla. The
same have been seen dug out of the side
hills by badgers, but as far as know the
pieces are not larger than q robins egg
too small to split readily. The so-called
Arizona topaz, it is said, is found in a
Napa, Cal. The writer would be glad to
get some Of this material, which is very
beautiful. There are many arrow-heads
found made of this smoky agate; some
almost as clear as glass, and others OF
milky color when looking at it placed
against light. There are arrow-heads
ola crnelian. both opaque and semi
Opaque, but none, perhaps, of the

row, rather than splitting out and spall-
ing off, as it Is necessary now to do,
with the case hardened fiintv spalls found
in this region. The worker who did this
best work could not take chip left here
and do the work he did there.
Another popularity is he worked with
design. The piece must come to his mind,
and his mind was set upon some beautiful
design. Thick stone were thus cut down
upon the sides to make them of certain
thickness. Some of the unfinished work
shows q cut like the furrow made by
through the center of the piece that now
no known tool will cut this way. A dia-
mond even, without being driven by steam
power could not do the work: hence, we
conclude the piece must have been soft,
the tool very hard, and the hand that
drove it through very strong and skillful.
What were the arrow-heads made for?
They are too small to give proper guiding
power to an arrow OF ordinary size and
length. The bow that shot them must
have been short and light, suitable for use
on foot or in q crowded fertilization, being
attached to q bladder by a strong piece of
rawhide or smew or fish entrail. they
would go deep into the water and pierce 9
fish. When dipped in poison they would
marauders.
The same people may have made larger
arrow-heads for long range shooting and
some of the work upon large arrow and
spear-heads show the same patience care
and skillfulness seensin the work of tiny
arrowhead that is from an eighth to
q quarter of an inch long. There
are some SO small that they will
be passed unobserved BY q
searcher for arrow-heads who walks.
The squaws get upon their knees to find
these, and white people need to initiate
their example. have found an occa-
sional arrowhead made of moss agate,
such as is now found in quantities upon
the John Day river. There is another
moss agate unlike this, very white and
clear, the place where found unknown.
Perhaps it Is found north of Des Chutes,
in the region where the Prineville Nems
locates very fine ledge of commercial
moss agate. A Mr.. Archibold, of North
Yakima, has found beautiful moss agate
bed or ledge not tar from North Yakima.
It is as taken out of the bed quite soft
and somewhat pliable, like the limestone
rock or marble found in the same
region, and of two colors, light gray,
opaque and darker color that is semi
opaque. The last is found in the
center of the rock, and presumably it is
