PACIFIC OGRAN RESEARCH.
[Continued from page 3]
MEIHODS AND SPECIALIST!.
The academy means to have this wor's done, an it is now having all its work done, in a manner that places it in the forefront of the world's muscams. Its study collections are all standardized, and, no far as they go, in all respects up-to-data in modern. museum re quirements.
The collectors have been carefully selected from among the brightest and most promising students in their respective lines of work, the chief of the scientific staff being the veteran, R. H. Beck, young in years, hat old in expe rience, the best qualified of any man in the world as a scientific collector and expert pre- parator. He has already during three previous visits become familiar with every island of the group and its natural history. Mammals aud birds will be his particular care. E. W. Gif ford, who has just completed cataloguing the 30,000 birds already comprised in the academy's stufy collection, will also devote himself to the wark in ornithology, making a special study of the habits and distribution of the birds. For the object of the expedition is not the mere collecting, but the investigation and untation" of all correlative facts, the mapping of the "life zones," based `chirfly on the, distribution, altitudinal and otherwise, ol every plant, beelle, mollusk, reptile and ather animue thing abid- ing there. J. S. Hamer, a postgraduate of the University of Californis, will also make bird. study his specially. It is hoped that an expert from the University of Nebraska will devote kimself to the plant life, til at present it is uncertain whether it will be possible for him to accompany the expedition, Il nal, a Univer. Ksity of California student will volunteer. From
Stanford University comes F. K. Williams, an able entomologist, win will gather and study
the beeiles and sther insect4.
Repaies, which are represemel by more numerous species on the Galapagos than ca any other island in the Pacific, will 'claim the attention of J., Steven, assistud curator in the department of herpetology at the academy, and also Ed. King of San Jose, while W. H. Ochiner, another Stanford ·"post-graduate, will represent the sciences of geology, conchology, especially paleontology and with regard in the origin of the islands and their rock written history which at present is entirely unknown, particularly in the detail of the comparison of the fossil and living sholls,
Caring for the navigation in Captain J, J. Parker, with Mal F. Nelson and only one pro fessioned forecastle hand, E. Elwell; for this is a case of "lend a hand everybody," the yacht being too small to accommodate a full sailor crew.
About Christmas, igo;, the urais way be expected again to anchor in San Francisco bay. As soon theresher as may be the results of the expedition will be published, amply illustrated in the academy's members,
There will constitute an addition to the litera, ture of science as invaluable as the various collections will be uniqué and priceless for museum purposes; giving San Francisco that peculiar pre- sinence and commanding pos tion to which thorough and careful work will demonstrate-no other museum in the world having attempted in cover this field of extraordinary interest. And the word “extra- ordinary * is no extravagant Jerin. It is used advisedly, as a glimpse at the fields to be covered show. Take, for example, the bird
life.

IGUANAS.
Iguanas, relatives of the old iguanodons which measured fifty feet in length and looked like huge, wingless dragons, are represented by two species, the marine, already mentioned, and the fand iguanas. These latter are almost between dogs and natives thair life of late extinct, for they are very good eating and
years has not been a happy one, though their bite is severe, their tail is an effective weapon in a rear guard action and their chameleon lightning calours change disconcertingly.
It would swell this story to the dimension of a book were an attempt made to teff in derail of all the marvels of this wondrous dying world of island life; ita snakes, its lizards, its beetles, its varatalon. Suffice it to say that every island of the group will be visited by the ex plorers, and each island will furnish its indivi- lual collection.

on the deep sea, coming he e, petrels and shearwaters, to rear the broods in crevices and crannies of the crater, rin barras scoped in the soft vncanic. Invis, b'e and silent through the sultry topic day at nightfall a series of groans and righs arise from the depths of mother earth's bosom, and when darkness settles down these crum less nesting birds fy seaward to feed and gather food for their Destlings. This nocturnal habit is adopted only in the pairing season On the most southern island of the grup, Hand by name,, is a large colony of albatrosses #fn distinctly marked species, fausil only, in this ene spot, which, after nesting, emigrates komikward.
The penguins also, usually birds peculiar to the Antarctic, here venture into the tropics. Here alan is a flightless cormorant, with no keel to his breastline. Nor does the world furnish any member of the finch family like the ground finches, of which each of there islands has a distinct species or sub specles For this is one of the peculine characteristics "of the Galapagos-that species seems confined
to strictly limited areas.
REPTILES,
Not less interesting are the indigenous reptiles of which the giant tortoise, already mentioned as nearly exterminated in chief. Within historic times this was found in three group the Seychelles, north of Madagascar; the Mascarines, in the Indian Ocean, and the Galapagos. It survives only in the last. Forsl eggs have been found, sometimes in enormous aumbers, on Reunion, Mauritius aud. Rod. riguez. This not only proves that island life In becoming extinct, but suggests again the question of how such world-wide distribution occurred. Were land masses formerly larger Band become gradusliysubmerged or did chance * carry these huge land fortoises by ocean currenia and otherwise? Being lighter than water they can' foat for days, as Admiral Porter found in the War of 18ra when chasing some Eng. lisb vessels who threw overboard a lot of theen tortoises. Three days after some were found still alive and were no doubt appreciated by the Yankee tark, for their flesh is edible, while the liver is esteemed specially delicate, mosurpassed by that of the Strasburg goose.
