SHORT PAPERS 



The Section of Geometry was very fully attended and productive of extended 

 discussion and a number of supplementary papers. For the same reason as in the 

 Section of Algebra and Analysis it is impossible to give a satisfactory resume of 

 the short papers on this subject owing to their close technical reasoning. 



The first paper was presented by Professor Harris Hancock, of the University 

 of Cincinnati, on "Algebraic Minimal Surfaces." 



The second paper was presented by Professor H. T. Blichfeldt, of Leland Stan- 

 ford Jr. University, on the subject "Concerning some Geometrical Properties 

 of Surfaces of Revolution." 



The third paper was presented by Professor George Bruce Halsted, of Kenyon 

 College, on " Non-Euclidean Spherics." 



The fourth paper was presented by Professor Arnold Emch, of the University 

 of Colorado, on "The Configuration of the Points of Inflection of a Plane 

 Cubic and their Harmonic Polars." 



The fifth paper was presented by Professor H. P. Manning, of Brown University, 

 on " Representation of Complex Variables in Space of Four Dimensions." 



The sixth paper was read by Professor G. A. Bliss, of the University of Missouri, 

 on " Concerning Calcidus of Variations." 



The seventh paper was presented by Professor L. W. Dowling, of the University 

 of Wisconsin, on "Certain Universal Curves."
