September 12th. Mr. E. J. Burnham gave an interesting and 

 instructive talk on scientific study, pointing out the relationships 

 of the various branches of science and their dependence on each 

 other. The speaker dwelt at some length upon the field of use- 

 fulness open to the Club and urged upon the members the bene- 

 fits to science, and to the city, which might come with the broad- 

 ening of the Club's field of work. From a modest beginning 

 along limited lines in electricity the organization had broadened 

 its scope until its proceedings had comprehended many other 

 branches of science, and it has become in fact, if not in name, the 

 scientific society of Manchester.
