98 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [May, 



until I was informed of a few -subscribers of Ent. News, John 

 Schwemler and Prof. Beardsley. Through them I found a few 

 others, and now the study of entomology has been a source of 

 great pleasure to me. A Natural History Club is now organized 

 in Cleveland, and the department of entomology is receiving due 

 attention. In a short time we expect to be in good working 

 order. The following is a list of Rhopalocera collected last
