Museum. — In accordance with the various enactments collections

 prior to that of 1889 are referred to on page 278. By section 6 of the 

 law of 1889 it became the duty of the survey to collect full suites of all 

 minerals, ores, fossils, or other mineral substances that might ba neces- 

 sary to form a complete cabinet to illustrate the mineral resources of 

 the State. The cabinet thus formed was at first installed in the State 

 capitol building, but later moved to the armory building.

 taken under direct appropriations from the legislature, although an

 complete the work as left by the United States geologist, F. V. Hay- 

 den.^ It is impossible at this date to learn all the details, but corre-
