1883.] Catlinite. 757 
Fort Wayne, Indiana, and is now owned by R. S. Robertson, Esq., 
of that city. It is represented in its actual size in Fig. 6. The 
form, while more modern than some of the other specimens fig- 
ured, is not common at the present day. A few miles east of 
Fort Wayne, in Allen county, a curious pipe of the same mate- 
rial was found on the surface of the ground, a few years ago, 
which is now in the possession of Mr. H. J. Rudisill, of River- 
side, California. A full sized drawing of this specimen is given 
in Fig. 7, and it will be seen that it is somewhat analogous in 
form to the interesting pipe described and figured 
by Mr. Henry Gillman, of Detroit, in his excel- 
lent paper on the “ Mound-builders and Platyc- 
nemism in Michigan, on which the figures 1697 
have been scratched by some white man, The 
Specimen illustrated in Fig. 189 in the “Smith- 
sonian Contributions to Knowledge,” No. 287, by 
Dr. Rau, belongs also to the same class. A pipe 
of similar form, but made of a gray stone pos- 
sessing a reddish cast, is owned by R. W. Mc- 
Bride, Esq., of Waterloo, Indiana. As there is = 
some doubt concerning the material of this speci- , pae Daas tad. 
men, it has not been figured here, although it has 
been pronounced catlinite by archaeologists who have seen it. It 
was found on the surface, some years ago, on the present site 
of Waterloo. Another example in the same collection is given 
in Fig. 8. The material is supposed to be catlinite, it was taken 
from a mound in Putnam county, Ohio, about fifty i 
years ago, by Dr. Jonas Emanuel. The head, which 
exhibits considerable artistic skill, is two and three 
quarters inches in height. The eyes and mouth are 
gouged out to a considerable depth, and may origi- 
nally have contained pearls or nuggets of metal. = 
Mr. S. Z. Landes, of Mount Carmel, Ill., has a catli- { 
nite pipe which was recently found beneath the roots 
of a tree which had been undermined by the waters

of White river, near that place. The bowl is plain, mound in Put-

animal resembling a weasel is carved in high relief. It was found 
associated with copper ornaments, leaden bullets, a copper kettle, 
a physician’s lancet and an iron box filled with mica.
