y summarizing the several recent additions to knowledge. It ends with a geographical classification of the Innuit and Indian tribes of Alaska, with estimates of their numbers. 1885. Bancroft (Hubert Howe). The works of Hubert Howe Bancroft, vol. 3: the native races, vol. 3, myths and languages. San Francisco, 1882. [Transcriber's Note: Vols. 1-5 collectively are "The Native Races"; vol. 3 is _Myths and Languages_.] In the chapter on that subject the languages are classified by divisions which appear to correspond to groups, families, tribes, and dialects. The classification does not, however, follow any consistent plan, and is in parts unintelligible. 1882. Gatschet (Albert Samuel). Indian languages of the Pacific States and Territories and of the Pueblos of New Mexico. In the Magazine of American History. New York, 1882, vol. 8. This paper is in the nature of a supplement to a previous one in the same magazine above referred to. It enlarges further on several of the stocks there considered, and, as the title indicates, treats also of the Pueblo languages. The families mentioned are: 1. Chimariko. 2. Washo. 3. Y['a]kona. 4. Say['u]skla. 5. K['u]sa. 6. Takilma. 7. Rio Grande Pueblo. 8. Kera. 9. Zuni. 1883. Hale (Horatio). Indian migrations, as evidenced by language. In The American Antiquarian and Oriental Journal. Chicago, 1888, vol. 5. In connection with the object of this paper--the study of Indian migrations--several linguistic stocks are mentioned, and the linguistic affinities of a number of tribes are given. The stocks mentioned are: Huron-Cherokee. Dakota. Algonkin. Chahta-Muskoki. 1885. Tolmie (W. Fraser) and Dawson (George M.) Comparative vocabularies of the Indian tribes of British Columbia, with a map illustrating distribution (Geological and Natural History Survey of Canada). Montreal, 1884. The vocabularies presented constitute an important contribution to linguistic science. They represent "one or more dialects of every Indian language spoken on the Pacific slope from the Columbia River north to the Tshilkat River, and beyond, in Alaska; and from the outermost sea-board to the main continental divide in the Rocky Mountains." A colored map shows the area occupied by each linguistic family. * * * * * LIN
