The recent ceremony was being billed as "100 years of healing," to mark the ongoing effort to recover songs, dances, arts, even Tlingit names, after the chaotic past century, Dundas said. "All the artifacts tell stories of their clans' beginnings," she said. Cape Fox has offered cedar trees to the museums in return. The Peabody, the Burke and the Smithsonian have accepted, and Nathan Jackson, a master carver in southeast Alaska, has begun work on a pole for the Peabody, Palmer said.
The Harriman Expedition was credited with documenting previously unknown species and fossils and mapping the coastal region. It left Seattle on May 31, 1899, followed the Inside Passage, and traced the Alaska Peninsula to the Aleutians and to the Bering Strait before returning to Seattle.

Dundas said most of the totem poles are mortuary poles with clan crests, like eagles, beavers or halibut. Others tell stories or were carved as memorials. Being Tlingit (pronounced KLINK'-it) and knowing the symbols of the different clans, "I could look at a pole and know whose clan that pole belongs to," she said. Members of the Harriman Expedition, including photographer Edward Curtis and naturalist John Muir, believed they were seeing an untouched world on the brink of cataclysmic change.
In fact, Alaska natives had already had 1 25 years of contact with white explorers and fur traders, and Gaash had been decimated by smallpox. The disease left 177 of about 1 ,000 people alive in the Cape Fox village, Dundas said. Survivors moved to Saxman, just outside modem-day Ketchikan, where missionaries had built a church and school. The treasures taken by the Harriman Expedition wound up in the "I'm not sure what kept me going. I think it was the only thing I felt I could do well and I just continued to do it."

He's released more than 40 albums including two movie soundtracks, a Christmas album, several greatest hits collections and a three-disc, 70-song retrospective in 1996. Still, Diamond says the songwrit-ing hasn't gotten any easier. If anything, it's harder, he says, to resist repeating himself or following a proven formula. "To a certain degree it's up to the gods and not really up to you," he said. "You're looking for something you haven't heard before and if you can get that to begin with, then it's usually worth the work on it." Diamond's latest release, 'Three Chord Opera," is being released Tuesday.

A party was recently near Ketchikan, Alaska, to celebrate the return of the artifacts, said Diane Palmer of Cape Fox which represents the village's three Tlingit clans. The Cape Fox village of Gaash was empty in June 1899 when the S.S.
George Elder anchored there with 126 scientists, artists and Har-riman family members on board. "It was evident that the village had not been occupied in seven or eight years," wrote nature writer John Burroughs, who was with the group. "Why not, therefore, secure some of these totem poles for the museums of the various colleges?" Irene Dundas, repatriation director for Cape Fox said the village clans are pleased to be getting the articles back and appreciative of the museums' respect for their arts. "A long time ago when they'd taken the things, we might have been upset," she said. "But if they weren't taken, they wouldn't be here with us today."

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter is stepping into new territory with his performance Saturday at 9 p.m. EDT on Live By Request." "That's all I've been thinking about," he said last week from his Los Angeles recording studio. "It's kind of a scary situation, but I think it will be fun. I haven't done a lot of these songs in a while." He will also need to recall words and melodies from a repertoire of about 500 songs -r Diamond's own best estimate and he acknowledged that "pretty much anything could come up." "That's also a little disconcerting," he said.
The 60-year-old Brooklyn native began writing songs as a teen-ager after Pete Seeger visited his summer camp. He later attended New York University on a fencing scholarship and dropped out just 1 0 credits shy of graduation in 1962 to take a $50 a week job as a songwriter at a small publishing company.
