S54 REPORT— 1900. 



ai-e given in List III. Twelve prints and ten slides have been received, 

 and the whole collection now numbers 336 prints and 111 slides. A list 

 of donors to this collection is appended to the list, and to each of them 

 the Committee expi-ess their thanks. 



The duplicate collection has been sent to the following Societies during 

 the year : — The Limerick Field Club, the Leeds Geological Association, 

 the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, the South-Eastern Union of Scien- 

 tific Societies, the Faraday Society of the Morley Memorial College, and 

 the annual conversazione of the Birmingham Philosophical and Natural 

 History Society. 



A request was received from the Science and Art Department that 

 the Committee would exhibit a typical series of geological photographs at 

 the Paris Exhibition. An appeal was sent to photographers, who 

 responded with their usual readiness. A small set was got together and 

 sent to Paris, where it is now exhibited. It has received the award of a 

 silver medal in Class XII. The following contributed prints or lent 

 negatives for this purpose : — Mr. R. Welch, Mr. Godfrey Bingley, Mr. A. 

 Strahan, Mr. C. A. Defieux, Mr. C. J. Watson, Mr. A. A. Armstrong, 

 Mr. A. K. Coomara-Swamy, Mr. A. S. Reid, Mr. R. McF. Mure, Mr. H. 

 L. P. Lowe, Dr. F. J. Allen, Mr. W. Jerome Harrison, and Mr. W. T. 

 Tucker. 



The question of publishing a typical series of geological photographs 

 has been considered by the Committee, and as a sufficient number of 

 subscribers has been obtained it has been decided to proceed to the issue 

 of twenty photographs annually for three years, both as prints and lantern 

 slides. A committee of selection, consisting of Professor Bonney, Mr. 

 Garwood, Dr. Mill, Mr. Teall, Mr. H. B. Woodward, and the Secretary, 

 has made a provisional selection of representative photographs. It is 

 hoped that the first set may be issued within the year. The subscribers* 

 list includes a large number of foreigners and colonials. The list v/ill be 

 closed on September 12, 1900. 



Applications by local societies for the loan of the duplicate collection 

 should be made to the Secretary. Either prints or slides, or both, can be 

 lent, with a descriptive account of the slides. The carriage, and the 

 making good of any damage to slides or prints, are expenses borne by the 

 borrowing society.

The price at which copies may be obtained depends on the size of the 

 print and on local circumstances over which the Committee have no control.
