BoIter Collection of Insects.

ne University OI lllluOlS mas re-
ceived the famous Bolter entomology
cal collection, valued at $4,000, from
the executors of the Bolter estate.
Some fifty years ago the collector, Mr.
Andreas Bolter, native of Germany,
settled in Chicago, and engaged In the
iron industry. He was successful and
developed large business. He be-
came much interested in entomology,
studying the science thoroughly and
collecting insects assiduously. He es-
tablished a laboratory in his home
and worked in it from six to ten hours
every day. For eighteen years, after
his retirement from business, he gave
his entire time to 1t. His work was
done with great care and neatness.
He paid out over 100000 in purchas-
ing collections and in making ex-
changes. Thus he brought together a
great collection which is probably un-
equaled by more than one other col
lection in the country. 1t is represen-
tative of all sections Of America. Its
value cannot be estimated. Inde-
pendent American and English ex-
perts have said that it could quickly
be sold for $4,000. 1t could not be
duplicated for any price.
Mr.. Bolter, however, had no thought
of parting with the collection for
money. He died not long ago, over SO
years of age, and provided in his will
that his executors should give the col
lection to the institution which would
make 1t most serviceable in entomo-
logical science. He was decidedly op-
posed to its being exhibited in a show
museum. After considerable investi-
cation, and some rivalry between in
stitutions, the executors on Monday,
April 30, announced that the collec-
tion was given to the University of
Illinois. This is the largest and most
valuable gift the university ever re-
ceived. 1t is a great satisfaction to
the university to have it come in the
way 1t has. 1t comes as a testimonial
to the excellence and the breadth of
scientific work, and particularly to the
learning, the earnestness and the wide
reputation Of Prof. Stephen A. Forbes,
state entomOlogist and dean of the
College Of Science of the University of
Illinois. 1t will at once enable the
University of Illinois to become a
leading center of chronological study
in America, and the university will
surely not be slow in making the
most Of its opportunity.
1t is great qualification to the uni
versity to know that many OF the fore
most entomologists of the country ad-
vised the executors to bestow the gift
where they did. One particularly act
i've and influential in this connection
was Prof. Otto Lugger OF the depart.
ment of entomology of the University
of Minnesota, who was a warm friend
of Mr.. Bolter and exercised strong
influence in the disposition OF the col
lection. The conditions OF the gift
are that the collection shall be housed
in a fire-proof building, shall be kept
together and in a room or rooms by
itself, and shall be marked and known
as the "Bolter Collection" These con-
ditions will not only be complied with,
but the university will do whatever II
can to have the purposes of the tire
less and generous collector and the
desires Of his loyal children realized
in the fullest measure.
