that gave forth notes at night.
 MT Harrlngton's researches among the Californian Indians are Of par tlcular importance because they are rescuing from the brink Of the grave information which in a year or two more would have been lost forever 10 the world. Due to the amalsamation ot the younger h. dians in thought and habits and blood with the white man. all that remains Of the old tribal history. music, myths and language Of these Californian Indians is the memories ut q few old mon and women who must soon die. Mr, Harrington has already spent eight months Of in- tgnsvc labor in interviewing, pho .ographing and taking about for purposes of identification of places prominent in their old tribal history, these survivors or departed gener- ation.
 Among the treasures he has res- cucd from oblivion is the myth of the water monster Of the great peak Of santa Rosa in Riverside county. The many springs Of the peak are doors 10 the home Of the water mon- ster, IL is he who makes the strange believing noises that are heard especially at night about the peak.
 Thanks 10 old Manuel Tuortcs Of Santa Rosa Kancherla, Mr liar rInElOn was able 10 discover the two great rocks that are what remain Of the twin culture heroes who fixed I'D the world al the start Of things, At Il mound Of rock that projects out into the desert are these great heads, that of the elder brother above and that Of the younger broth or below, They are looking north west. The profies are so genuinely Indian that it is hard to think the rocks are natural and were not touched up by the hand of some pre- historic medicine man, Lieutenant Wheeler (U. $. A) mentions these heads in his report way back in the sos, but no one has ever found out where they are located until the present expedition"
 At Campo, MT. Harrington got pictures Of the oldest Indian man, already past a hundred and deaf and blind.
 Manuel Chuparosa supplied him with the Indian creation myth. Ac- cording to Manuel the world started in tho form Of an egg. Out Of the egg all things grew and the eldest born of the persons of the world were the Twin Gods. The younger brother opened his eyes in the water as he was being born and his eyes became blurred and his hands web- bed. He originated the evil and dis ease in the world and is kind of satan.

NOVEL MUSICAL
 INSTRUMENT SEEN
Early Indians Made One From
 ACOrnS

Washington. March 26 An In dian musical instrument made Of q string of acorns Is the latest dlgcoy- evry to be made by J, r. Earring ton, ethnologist of the Smithsonian Institution. in his fruitful research es among the ninety and hundred year old elders Of the Southern Cali iornian Indian tribes.
 "The instrument consists of q string oi acorns, carefully tuned ac- cording 10 thelr size," says Mr Har- rington in report to Dr, J, Walter Fowkes, chief of the Bureau Of Eth nology. "One end Of the string is held in the hand and each acorn in turn is held in the mouth between the teeeth. As the string is swung and pulled taut by the other hand, the acorn between the teeth vibrates with q clear tone, and by alternating the acorns a tune is played us pretty as flute music"
 NIr. Harrington is bringing back to the Smithsonian q specimen Of this new discovery among Indian musical instruments, but refuses 10 promise 10 play it correctly. Tt is harder 10 play than the open end Indian flutes" he says. and l have always had to draw the line at them"
 Another interesting discovery of q musical nature made by Mir. liar rngton is the process Of Indian flute manufacture out Of elder wood. "Tho Indians cut the elder stick green in the early spring and let it lie with the leaves on t for a week so that the leaves might draw the sap out That prevents it from cracking, Only tour holes were bored, the method being to scrape the wall Of the flute where the holes were to be bored. thin and then to press a glowing tWig Of the desired diameter against the wall The holes were placed al random so that each flute had diff ferent scale. Some players knew as many as 50 tunes. Many Of these were peculiarly flute melodies and were never sung"
 According 10 Mir. Harrington these Indians worshipped the elder as the tree Of music and myths existed among them of magical elder trees
