Fourth. That we express to the President and the executive committee of 
this year our pleasure at the thorough manner in which the plans for this 
anniversary have been carried out; and our belief that there have been added 
to the literature of the state, not only papers of value for future reference 
in science itself, but also papers of historic value concerning earlier scientific 
workers, containing information that otherwise would be difficult to obtain. 
Fifth. That we express our thanks to the local committee, consisting of 
Messrs. Kinney, Conklin and Lees, wdio made such excellent arrangement for 
the banquet that was so fully enjoyed last evening.

RESOLUTIONS ON THE DEATH OF LORD LISTER. 
Whereas, by the death of Lord Lister in London, the world of science has 
lost a most distinguished representative, therefore be it resolved. 
First, That the Iowa Academy of Science would spread upon its record an 
■ appreciation of the immense service which the life and labor of Lord Lister 
brought to humanity at large; and. 
Second, That the Academy recognizes in Lord Lister’s career a high exempli- 
fication of the aim and spirit of scientific research.
