ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT LIIL 
honorary connection with the Bureau, and for some months 
has been occupied in part in the rearrangement and revision of 
this monograph for printing. During the month the work 
was completed, and the monograph has been incorporated in 
the Fourteenth Annual Report. 
Collections—The Papago and Seri collections have received 
attention throughout the month. The photographs collected 
during the expedition last autumn have been arranged and 
labeled for use by Mr McGee in the preparation of a report on 
the results of the expedition. Meantime Mr Dinwiddie has 
been employed in labeling and arranging the collection in the 
National Museum. During the latter half of the month this 
work was carried forward in connection with the arrangements 
for the exposition at Atlanta, where it is planned to exhibit a 
part of the collection. 
Toward the end of the month Dr J. Walter Fewkes, of Bos- 
ton, was by the Secretary commissioned to make collections 
for the enrichment of the Museum from among the prehistoric 
pueblo ruins of the southwest; and on May 25 he began the 
work of preparing for the trip, and a day or two later left for 
Arizona. Early reports will doubtless be received direct from 
the field. 
Work on the Kiowa Indians—Mr Mooney reports the suc- 
cessful prosecution of his work during May in the preparation 
of models of heraldic tipis, shields, and sacred and military 
insignia of the Kiowa and Apache tribes in Oklahoma, and 
reports also satisfactory progress in the preparation of his 
paper on Kiowa heraldry. In the camp cirele of the Kiowa, 
and the tribes united with them, there were about 200 tipis, 
50 of which were decorated with heraldic devices, while all 
were accompanied by shields with insignia or other parapher- 
nalia belonging to the family, order, or individual represented 
by the tipi. Study of this elaborate camp circle, with its 
heraldic and other devices, has thrown much light on the social 
organization of these tribes. 
Anthropologic classification—The Director has continued the 
preparation of a classification of anthropology for the double 
purpose of systemizing the material already collected in the
