The accessions for the year include slides and photographs 
from the British Association for the Advancement of Science, 
cifts to the University from Messrs. Du Bois, F. J. Matthes, 
Robert W. Sayles, W. M. Davis, J. B. Woodworth; also 26 views 
from Professor Shaler which have not yet been placed in the 
collection. During the year Mr. Turpin has spent considerable 
time in repairing and rebuilding the slides. He was also employed 
in making a number of negatives from original materials. 
The subcommittee on the Geological Museum (Professors R. 
T. Jackson, Jaggar, Wolff, and Woodworth) report that in No- 
vember, 1904, the Corporation granted to the Geological Depart- 
ment $1160.12, the balance of the building fund of the Geological 
Museum, to be expended for cases in the exhibition rooms. With 
this money and by making use in part of old cases given last year 
by the Museum of Comparative Zoology, six exhibition cases have 
been built in the southwest exhibition room. They are, one 
long wall case on the east wall; three cases between windows 
on the west wall, and two large centre cases with table and 
upright central portion and space beneath for storage in trays. 
These cases when filled with exhibition material will make an 
excellent nucleus for the Geological Museum. 
A subcommittee appointed to make nominations for the Josiah 
Dwight Whitney Scholarship (Professors Davis, Jaggar, and 
Woodworth) recommended that two scholarships of $100.00 each 
be awarded to Messrs. S. A. Starratt and W. F. Low, students in 
the course given in the Rocky Mountains of Montana by Professor 
Woodworth.
