Dr. Wahl proposed the name of Mr. L. F. Kebler, chemist to Smith, Kline & French Company, manufacturrng chemists, 305 cherry Street, Philadelphia. The name was referred to the Committee on Admissions and Mr. Kebler was duly elected. A letter from Miss Lizette A. Fisher to Dr. Wahl, announced the death of our fellow-member, Mr. R. A. Fisher, on October 6th. Dr. Tuttle appointed Mr. H. Pemberton, Jr., to prepare a suitable minute of the sad event. Mr. Boyer suggested that such lectures of the Institute’s general course, as were of special interest to chemists be made a part of the proceedings of the Section. Dr. Wahl stated that such a plan would be highly desirable. but its execution would be attended with serious expense to the Section, such expense being incidental to publication. Dr. Wahl remarked, further on, the desirability of making the selection of lecturers on chemical topics, a duty of the Section. The president and others concurred in the views expressed by Dr. Wahl. Dr. Hooker then read a paper “ On the Azines of the Lapachol Group,” and followed it with another on “ The Change from Ortho- to Para- and from Para- to Ortho-Quinones.” The papers were listened to with much interest, and were afterwards informally discussed by the author and Dr. Hall, Prof. Smith and Dr. Keiser. Beautifully crystallized specimens of the substances treated of were submitted for inspection. A paper entitled “ Experiments on Slag Cements,” by Mr. R. W. Mahon was, in the absence of the author, read by title and referred for publication. Adjourned. WY. C. DAY, Secretary.
