During the year 1905 considerable progress has been made in the preparations for the forthcoming visit of the British Association to York, which has been fixed for the first week in August. Your Council relies with confidence upon the mem¬ bers of the Yorkshire Philosophical Society doing all in their power to render the Meeting a complete success, not only by subscribing liberally to the Local Fund, but also by extending hospitality to the visitors and taking part in the various Sub- Committees upon which the' success of the Meeting so much depends. Owing to the British Association having held its Meeting last year in South Africa, where the attendance was naturally limited to those having the means and leisure to devote to so extended a journey, it is anticipated that the attendance this year will be above the average and that the accommodation of our ancient city will be taxed to the utmost. Any deficiency in the hotels to meet the demands upon their space will, we hope, be readily supplied by the citizens. During the past year the Lectures have been maintained at the high standard to which we have become accustomed, and the Council is pleased to know that its efforts to render the seats in the Lecture Theatre more comfortable are appreciated by the members and have added materially to the enjoyment of the Lectures. A list of the Lectures will be found at page 8. REPORT OF THE COUNCIL FOR 1905. 7 A movement was inaugurated for building a New Lecture Theatre during the past year, and an appeal was made to Mr. Carnegie to assist the Council with funds for this much needed improvement. The appeal was however unsuccessful, and there is now hardly time to carry out the work so as to he available for the British Association Meeting in August, even if funds were forthcoming. Your Council still hopes that in the near future funds may be supplied not only for a new Lecture Theatre, hut also for a Gallery and enlargement of the Library, both of which are a pressing need. The supply of further space for the exhibition of the Collections so as to render them capable of more popular treatment is much called for. Considerable progress has been made in labelling the objects of interest in the entrance of the Museum and Hospitium during the past year, and it is hoped to extend and complete this very desirable work during the coming season. The best thanks of the Council are due to Dr. Auden and Mr. Malcolm Spence for this work. It was found necessary during the summer months to employ an ex-policeman to keep order in the Gardens. The Council trusts that the members will do all in their power to assist the Gardeners, and will not hesitate to report to the Keeper of the Museum any abuse of the Grounds and Exhibits, which may come to their notice. During the past year several notable additions have been made to the Collections. Your Council would especially thank the Keeper of the Museum, Mr. Oxley Grabham, for the presentation of his most valuable collection of British Mammals, and Dr. Tempest Anderson for so kindly providing the Cabinets in which the collection is housed. The portraits of past Curators and others, which from exposure in the Entrance Hall and other causes have suffered some deterioration, have been carefully treated under the supervision of Mr. Howarth, of the Mappin Art Gallery, Sheffield, and your Council wish to record their indebtedness to him for the assistance rendered. It is gratifying to find that no serious injury has been sustained by the pictures. The financial position of the Society is on the whole satis¬ factory. The accounts shew an excess of receipts over 8 REPORT OF THE expenditure during the past year of /14 8s. 3d. The sub¬ scriptions shew a falling off of £1 7, but this arises to a considerable extent from members who joined the Society in the latter half of 1904 having paid the year 1905 subscription in advance. We have lost by death 3 members and by resignation 27, but the numbers have been more than kept up by the addition of new members. The Council recommend that the following Gentlemen be elected Honorary Members of the Sociey : — Sir Benjamin Baker, F.R.S. J. J. Harris Teall, F.R.S., Director of Geological Survey. Professor F. O. Bower, D.Sc., F.R.S., Professor of Botany of Glasgow University. Vaughan Cornish, D.Sc., F.R.G.S. The Rev. Thos. Gough, D.S. G. W. Lamplugh, F.R.S. Professor A. N. Reinold, F.R.S. The Marquis of Ripon, K.G., F.R.S. Romilly Allen, F.S.A. J. D. Dryhurst. Professor Kohen. Soph us Muller. Dr. Schitelig.

Archaeology. — Numerous small additions have been made to this Department during the year by purchase and donation. With the acquisition of the new Coin Cabinet, space has been found for the very valuable collection of the Gold, Silver and Copper Coins of India, presented by Mr. H. C. Barstow. The 17th Century Tokens have now all been determined and tickets placed under them, and considerable progress has been made in the arrangement of the 18th Century Tradesmen’s Halfpenny Tokens. In April, Mr. P. W. P. Carlyon-Britton, F.S.A., and Mr. W. J. Andrew, F.S.A., the President and Secretary of the British Numismatic Society, visited the Museum for the purpose of examining the Coins of the Norman Period in the collection, with the result that the places of minting of 145 specimens of Will. I. and Will. II. have been determined. Mr. Carlyon- Britton is shortly to read a paper to the above Society on the Coins of this very interesting period. Major A. B. Creeke, F.S.A., in a paper on the Royal Sceatta and Styca Series of Northumbria, has described three specimens — the Saxon King iElfwald — in our collection as being ex¬ tremely rare, and has figured one of them. Dr. Tempest Anderson has presented some Foreign Coins to the Society, including some of Kruger. a 2 10 REPORT OF THE Botany. — In carrying out the recommendation of the Council, the Hon. Curator begs to acknowledge the assistance of the Rev. W. A. Briggs ; also a donation of plants from T. Johnson, Esq., Royal College of Science, Dublin. During the year (1905) one hundred Continental plants, also three hundred British plants have been placed in the Garden. The donations to the Herbarium will be found on page 32, and consist of some interesting Rubi from (No. Hants.) V.C. 12., collected and presented by the Rev. William L. W. Eyre. Geology. — The Hon. Curator reports that a collection of Jurassic fossils, chiefly ammonites, has been presented by Herr Dr. Pfarrer Engel, which will be very useful for comparison with the Yorkshire specimens. Mr. Allenby, Junr., has pre¬ sented 2 fossil plants and a Gryphea. The following specimens have been figured in the Paleonto¬ logical Society : — Monograph, by Hy. Woods, M.A., F.G.S. Oxytoma cornueliana d’orb, from Speeton. Gervillia linguloides Forbes from the Lower Greensand. Rev. J. F. Blake, M.A., F.G.S., has also figured Strophodiis riganxi Sauvage, from the Cornbrash of Scarbro’. No fossils have been purchased by the Society. Ornithology. — The Hon. Curator states that all the De¬ partment is in good order. Several fresh skins have been added during the past year, but nothing that calls for any special mention. In connection with this Department, it may be mentioned that an out-door Aviary has been put up in the Gardens, in which it is proposed to keep all the British Finches, and it is hoped that these will be a source of considerable interest to members of the Society. Zoology and Comparative Anatomy. — Through the kind¬ ness of the Hon. Curator, Dr. Tempest Anderson, a fine skeleton of the White Whale or Beluga has been added to the collection. This animal was shot in the river Ouse, near Naburn, on April 1st, 1905. It was a female, 11 ft. in length, and weighed 10 cwt. The fine collection of British Mammal COUNCIL FOR 1905. II skins presented by Mr, Grabham, and the Cabinet to contain the same given by Dr. Anderson, have been mentioned else¬ where, but this is not quite complete. Several of the rarer Bats, the Wild Cat and the Marten, are still desiderata, and hopes are entertained that some of our members will be able to assist in procuring these. Help is also asked to further the formation of a good collection of specimen Yorkshire Fresh¬ water Fish. We are very badly represented in this department. Mr. Grabham has presented five cases which will form a nucleus, and it is hoped that in future any heavy or rare specimens will find a resting place in the Museum. Library. — The Librarian has no event of unusual character to record in connection with his department. The pressing need continues to be want of shelf accommodation, and this need becomes more urgent year by year. Restraint, which is of help in other departments, is useless in the case of the Library. Even if we cease to buy books, a policy which can scarcely be recommended, the steady influx of books that are presented to us — to refuse which would be foolish as well as ungracious — would speedily bring about the repletion which is now very near. It is sincerely to be hoped that we shall shortly have some increase of accommodation. Mineralogy. — The Hon. Curator reports that the collections are in good order. No further additions have been made during the past year. Meteorology. — Statistics of Station : — Longitude, i° 5' W.; Latitude, 53° 57' N.i height above mean sea level 56 feet. Temperature in 1905 ranged between i6°F. and 83°F., i.e., over 67. F., the average mean temperature for the year being 48° as compared with 48.5 in 1904. The lowest temperature was recorded on Jan. 10th, when the absolute minimum thermometer read i6°F., whilst the highest reading 83°F. on July 14th was 30 above the highest of 1904. The opening months of the year were more than usually fine and sunny, and speaking generally weather conditions in 1905 were favourable to the public health. Fogs were not frequent or intense. 12 REPORT OF THE A Mean Pressure of 29*960 inches at normal temperature and mean sea level has been recorded as against 29*934 inches for 1904, March being lowest with 29*653 inches, November next with 29.670 inches, January and December being highest with 30*194 inches and 30*173 inches respectively. The extreme range of pressure was 2*117 inches as compared with 2*041 inches in 1904 and 1*790 inches in 1903, the highest reading being taken on December 12th, 30*872 inches at 9 a.m., and the lowest on November 26th, 28*755 inches at 9 p.m., the generally high barometer indicating the low rainfall for the year. Rain or Snow (0*005 inches or more) fell on 171 days, 18 fewer than in 1904, and 47 fewer than in 1903, the total rain¬ fall for the year being 20*68 inches as against 20*82 inches for 1904. This year has therefore been one of extremely low rainfall, the average for the last 60 years being 24*5 inches. The wettest months of the year were August, November and April, their totals being 3*41, 3*32, 2*39 inches respectively, while January, February, May and December were respectively 0*51, 074, 0*74 and 0*25 inches. The cumulative totals since 1841 are now August 174*80 inches ; October 173*88 inches, and July 163*60. The heaviest rainfall, *64 inch, occurred on August 26th. The observations of the winds show that only on two days did the wind blow with the force of a “gale,” while the chief air currents were W. (183), S. (151), N. (117), S.W. (83), N.W. (79), 6 days being “ calm ” as against 16. Days of “ clear sky " were 38, “overcast” 105 as against 117 in 1904, and there were 8 thunderstorms during the year. Sunshine has been recorded during the whole of the year, and we find the satisfactory amount of 1387*1 hours as against 1241*9 hours for 1904, this being 31% as against 28% for the previous year, a further improvement on the unsatisfactory 1903- Photographic Section for 1905. — The membership of this Section is scarcely so large as two or three years ago and the desirability of further accession to its members should be pointed out, especially as the advantages of joining the Section COUNCIL FOR 1905. I3 are considerable, and should be made more widely known to members of the Y.P.S. who are amateur photographers. The Sectional meetings, which are held on the 1st Wednes¬ day in each month, from October to May inclusive, in the Library or Theatre of the Museum, at 8 p.m., furnish occasions for social intercourse and mutual exchange of views on photo¬ graphic and kindred subjects as well as exhibition of photographs, &c., which are well calculated to keep alive the worker’s interest in a way that more solitary practice of the art cannot do. The Section does not only depend upon the work of its own members, but much of the work of other Societies is available for its meetings, through the Affiliated Photographic Societies, of which it is a member. During the year 1905 there has been a Competition in Por¬ traiture, a Paper with Lantern Illustrations on Pictorial Composition, while a beautiful collection of half plate or whole plate transparencies (views in the Lake District for the most part) furnished a very attractive exhibition at the last meeting in December. The annual Exhibition of Lantern Slides was given in the Museum Theatre in April, and keenly appreciated. These are always popular, and the crowded audiences are a proof of the general interest taken in the Section’s operations. The terms of Subscription to the Photographic Section are : for Members and Associates of the Philosophical Society, 2/6 per annum ; and for Non-Members of the same 5/- per annum. Any lady or gentleman wishing to join has merely to enclose the Subscription, and to intimate his or her desire to become a member to either of the Joint Hon. Secretaries : — H. Dennis Taylor, or Malcolm Spence, Stancliffe, Almery Garth, The Mount. Mary gate. METEOROLOGICAL STATION, YORK.— THE MUSEUM. Longitude 1° rJ W., Latitude 53° f>7' N.
