This report would be incomplete without reference to the three lantern talks, a gratuitous service by members Of the society, Prof. N. E. Hansen, on Tuesday evening, showing a large number Of new and interesting views connected with his foreign explorations and many Of his new fruits; Prof. Lange showing a large number Of views Of wild ?owers taken in his excursions through the woods; and Rev. Rett E. Olmstead a most beautiful display of birds and bird life. All of these exhibitions were accompanied by appropriate talks illustrating the subject, giving us not only most interesting entertainments but much practical information as well.
The annual banquet was an extraordinary success, two hundred and twenty sitting down at the table, something like sixty more than at any previous similar occasion. The program was carried out in full without a hitch, and appears herewith.
