THE TWO HUNDRED AND SECOND ORDINARY 

 MEETING. 

 After an hour's interval for tea, the 202nd Ordinary Meeting was held, 

 Prof. R Meldola, F.R.S., President, in the chair. 



The President briefly returned thanks for his re-election to the chair. 

 Mr. Thos. R. Brooke and Mr. Thos. Hacking, A.Sc, were elected 

 members of the Club. 



Mr. Miller Christy, F.L.S., exhibited a specimen of one of the Falconidae, 

 a form of the Gerfalcon, shot in Hatfield Forest ten years ago by one of the 

 Forest keepers, and which was now the property of his widow. This speci- 

 men had been seen by the members of the Club when visiting Hatfield Forest 

 on July 2ist, 1897 (Essex Naturalist, vol. x., p. 178). 



Mr. Christy also exhibited a series of rubbings of the " mines " of the 

 larvae of the Ash-bark Beetle (Hyleshius) which were shown as lantern slides. 

 Mr. Christy also read some notes on the nature and characteristics of these 

 borings, which will be published, with figures, in a future part of the journal. 

 Remarks on the exhibit were made by the President, Mr. Knock, Mr. 

 Elliott, Mr. Hugh McLachlan and the author in reply. 



Prof. Meldola exhibited by means of the reflecting electric lantern, one 

 of I^ippmann's colour photographs, and gave an explanation and demonstra- 

 tion of the scientific principles involved. In the experiments he was assisted 

 by Mr. Briscoe, the Principal of the Institute, whom he thanked warmly for 

 assistance and loan of iustrumeats. 



Mr. E. Sanger-Shepherd then gave a most interesting lantern demonstra- 

 tion of his process for producing colour photographic transparencies, and fully 

 explained and illustrated the scientific basis of the problem. The pictures of 

 flowers, shells, butterflies, birds, and landscapes, &c., were much admired, 

 and Mr. Shepherd's lecture was received with hearty applause. 



A discussion ensued, in which the President, Mr. Briscoe and Mr- 

 Shepherd took part, and a cordial vote of thanks was accorded to Mr. 

 Shepherd. 



Mr. Briscoe was also thanked for his kind aid in allowing the use of 

 apparatus for the use in the demonstrations. 



Mr. Cole exhibited some proofs of prints made by the three-colour photo- 

 graphic process, which had been kindly sent to him by Messrs. Andre and 

 Sleigh, of Bushey, Herts. 



A paper on Neolithic Implements from the North Downs, by Mr. Johnson, 

 was, from want of time, taken as read.
