ERS IN A BARREN LAND.

By Robert Stein. of the United States Geological
Survey.
When started for the arctic regions I carried
with me violent aversion for all lower races, par
ticularly the Esquimaus. whom from report had
learned to regard the embodiment of filth I'M
utterable. am ready now TO do penance for any
harsh word may have uttered against them.
My opportunities for studying the Esquimaus were
not the favorable. Though I spent two years
in the Arctic, yet the time during which was in
actual contact with them far less. We went
north under express agreement with PeaTy to have
no dealings with the natives and hence had not
provided ourselves with stock of articles expressly
for trade. The occasions when I able to OBJ

them made at our station. Fort Magnesia, near

have here been divided into bars where the measure
was conspicuous; in other cases bars are used
although some kind of measure was distinctly
noticeable.

fore noted. the words of the songs belong mostly
to an archaic language, that the Esuuimaus

them. Such meanings could be made out are
noted beneath the original.
1t is not to be supposed that these airs resemble
the voices of the animals TO which they are attrb
