SECRET OF Hopes to Interprot Odd Indian Designs Worked. Now York Woman Is Sent on Long Visit to Aborigines of Southwest by American Museum of Natural History. New York. Miss Mary Lois Klssoll, who started recontly for an extended trip among tho Indians of tho south west, whero sho will study basketry on Its natlvo heath, Is tho first woman over sent out by tho American Mu seum of Natural History for purposes of original research. Hitherto men only have been omployed to penetrate the wilds and tho deserts In Its be half. But now it has como to a crisis and a woman fills the void. Tho mu soum has a fine collection of Indian baskets. Thoy are ot all shapes and sizes and uses, covored with Intricate designs in significant colors. Some of the facts of tholr construction aro known, but tho scientists aro awnro ot many mysteries which await solution. "More man" ovon a scientific man cannot got at thoso socroto. Ho tries, And tho taciturn old squaw mutters: "Mo no know." Mcro man dlscovprs that tho Indian woman Is bound by rulos of religious observance not to discuss hor work with mon. Even tho braves of tho tribe do not know how tho beautiful dOBlgns aro oxecutod, and tho white man is doubly help loss, It Is Miss Klssoll's enthusiasm, com bined with her knowledgo ot textiles and handcraft that has won her placo In the museum. It Is said that sho even lighted a glow ot enthusiasm in the cold scientific bouIs ot European museum directors. Hue was abroad last Bummer gleaning what bUo could about basketry from collections thero. In Munich she askod such Illuminat ing questions about bow some baskets wore made that the vetoran scientist saw now light on his subject. "Well, well," ho cried, delighted, tho old Joy ot dlscovory in 'his heart. "Who would havo thought baskets meant so much? We'll know raoro when you como again, madaino." , Fotnlnlno scientists, as a class, are full of enthusiasm, Miss Klssoll has found, and also thoy sometimes Bee things which masculine sclenco over looks. For Instance, a Congo expedi tion brought back n curious Uttlo cap mado by soma tribes of that region. Tho mlmito Miss Klssoll saw it sho recognized It as Irish crochet laco, done In straw. Tho sight thrilled hor woman's heart. Irish crochet In tho Congo! How was It done? Tho men of tho expedition looked blank onough when questioned. What, indoed, was ono stitch or another to them? It seemed as It tho secret would remain untold, whon It developed that tho ex plorer 'a wlfo had been with tho party, "Why, yes," sho said in surprlab, "I know all about It, of course I sat with tho womon for hours and watch od them do St." MlBs KIbsoU's field will bo tho Pima speaking tribes ot Arizona, tho largest encampment being near Tucson, but n trip ot sixty mllos further down to ward Mexico may bq nocoBsary, Sho will go alone, fearing nothing and trusting to her beads and mirrors to carry her through in safety. Now a woman is going to try hor band at ferreting out these Bocrets. Feminine Intuition nnd an inborn nat ural understanding ot squaw psychol ogy aro expected to accomplish much. For tho rest Miss Klssoll will dopond on making friends with tho papooses. "It will takp tlmo, ot courso." said AUss Klssoll, "to get them to regard me In a friendly way. I shall stay In one village long enough to fool uc qualutcd. Then I shall tako my 'knit ting work maybo and go to spend tho afternoon with ono ot my neighbors. Two or throe othors will drop In, Vnd we'll all Bit and chat as we work. I DYNAMITING A HILL IN THE CANAL ZONE BASKETS expect to got many points this way that would not bo divulged In an ordi nary Intervlow. Thoro are mysterious rites connected with tho gathering of tho reods, and many of-tho designs havo a religious or superstitious sig nificance. Thoy will tell me these things, I hopo, as thoy could not toll a man." Everything depends on making a good impression. So Miss Klssoll has provided herself with various appli ances for winning friendship. Sho has several tlnv mirrors in nnnnnl to feminine vanity and a big box of glass boadB from tho 10 cent stores. Sho may tako a walk thrbugh an In dian vlllago and spy somo fat llttlo lad who looks promising. Sho will snsp a string of red beads around his dirty llttlo nock and smile In., gratlatlngly. In twenty minutes tho whole village will, know ot tho af fair, and success will bo assured, Sho has ?20 In brand now coins, too. Thoso aro not for gifts, but for payment. Sho may want to buy n basket or an lmplemont ot somo kind.
