The high standard of the Magazine of

dantly illustrated. J. M. Bulkley reviews 
some of the “ Antiquities in the Western 
States,” including the ancient fort on the 
Muskingum River, Ohio, and mummies which 
were found some years ago in the salt caves 
of Kentucky. “ The Cave Myth of the 
American Indians,” by George S. Jones, is 
an interesting and valuable contribution to 
anthropological literature. There is also a 
paper by the editor on “ Queen Elizabeth,” 
with a quaint frontispiece portrait, and an 
article entitled “ The Discovery of Lake 
Superior,” by Arthur Harvey. “ Reprints,”

plies,” “ Societies,” and “ Book Notices,”

tled “A Red-Headed Family,” in which the

The subject of the May number of the

tion to Anthropology and the History of Re¬ 
ligion, ” by Fritz Schultze, Ph. D.; translated

valuable work deals with all phases of savage 
idolatry, and shows how many of the current 
superstitions of civilized peoples originated.

that he may soon be enabled to increase the 
size of his journal.
