Director's Annual Report. 
‘‘One of the most remarkable finds of the year was made by Mr. 
Frank Greenwell, of two species of tree-shells on the slopes of Hu- 
alalai. I wish also to mention the collection made by Mr. Forbes 
on the island of Lanai. This collection numbered nearly 5,000 
specimens, many of the minute species being new to the island.”’ 
From the Curator of Ethnology I have received a report on 
the year’s work in his department which is exceedingly interest- 
ing, but as he intends to publish the results of his explorations 
later, when completed, I give but a brief extract. The list of ac- 
quisitions is to be illustrated by engravings of some of the more 
remarkable specimens. 
Of gifts: we received from Miss Breckons a large wooden 
image found on Kauai, in a remarkable state of preservation. 
Messrs. A. F. Judd and R. A. Cooke added specimens found on 
Molokai. Other gifts were received from the Dominion Museum, 
Wellington, N. Z.; Rev. W. D. Westervelt, Mr. Patrick Walsh, 
Executors of the late A. S. Cleghorn and Mr. C. F. Maxwell. 
Of purchases: the feather cloak and cape belonging to the 
Joy family in Boston (figured in Memoirs I, Plate XII) were se- 
cured. A valuable collection of war implements from Niue was 
purchased from Mr. C. F. Maxwell, formerly British Commissioner 
from that island; these are figured later in the lists. A Korean 
who has brought us several small collections from Mokapu during 
recent years, brought us yet another. 
Of loans: the number has most satisfactorily increased. Mr. 
G. P. Cooke has sent us 16 specimens from Molokai, Mr. Wm. 
Wagner 6 from Hawaii, Mr. D. Thaanum 11 from various parts of 
the group, Mr. W. D. McBride 2 stone club heads, Mr. Harry 
Gregson a stone pikoi of unusual form, and Mr. G. O. Cooper a 
stick idol from Hawaii. ‘These will be illustrated in the general 
list of acquisitions. ‘The collection of Edgar Henriques has been 
catalogued under the Curator’s supervision and 251 of the speci- 
mens are already arranged in a separate case in the upper gallery 
of Hawaiian Hall. Some interesting illustrations of these will be 
found in the lists below.
