LIFE OF THE SILURIAN AGE.
BY S. w. FORD.

THE CANADIAN PERIOD OF TUE LOWER slLCRiAN
The period immediately succeeding the Prmordia
is.known in American geology as the the Canadian
The name refers to the fact that the most important
of its rock groups was first recognized In Canada,
and worked out by the biologists OF that Dominion
The principal divisions of the rocks of the period IN
America are in ascending ORDER as toliowsi W
The Calciferous SandrOck; % The Quebec ufoup'
f3l The Chazy limestone. or these the hrst
and third were first characterized by the New
York biologists. The rocks. in one or other
of their subdivisions, spread widely over the con''-
nent having been distinguished IN New-York, New
foundland and Canada ; IN various regions aio"E
the Southern Appa)aclhans and in the MISSISSIPPI
basin. also in the Territories of Utah, Idaho and
Wvominr In foreign countries they are also widely
distrihnted. appearing IN North Wales as the Ire
roadoc states IN England as the the Skiddaw states
and the Shper stones; in Bohemia probably as the
lower portion of Barrandes Stage D; and in Sweden
and Russia under still other designations The
rocks are. therefore, geographically nearly coexten-
siye with those of the PrmOrdial, and, like them,
show that the sites of the present land areas men
TONED were then largely covered by the ancieLt
oceans
The life opened in the Calciferous epoch with a
poodly display of nearly all the classes known IN
the PrimordIal and before the close of the period
all with the exception of tho worm class Ann6ldd,
aud the molluscan class Pteopoda. had attained
freer and more complete expression. The types
as in the preceding period, we're all marine The
highest animal life of the period was Crustaeean
and the lowest ProtozOan as before. The most
marked additions made were TO the Radiate and
Molluscan sub-k gdoms, true EchinOderons IN the
shape Of starfshes and Crinids along with true
Polyp-corals, and others made by minute Hydra
like animals here being added to the Crystideans
under the former; and CephalopOds and Acephala to
Brachiopods under the latter. shall endesyor to
point out further on the significance Of these facts,
and it will also appear, proceed with our iD-
quirles why the Silurian Age has been termed the
age of MOllusks."
The Articulates were abundantly represented by
the Trilobites, of which more than one hundred
American species have been described. They are
distributed among twenty-six different genera, ten
of which appeared previously in the Primordial'
None of the species are known to have attained as
large size as the largest Primordlal Pdr0dorides,
and mono of them can be safely set down
as transmitted Pnmordal species. A8aphus,
BathyureIus Haypides and NctGs are the
classical names of some of the genera that here
first make their appearance. They were especially
abundant during the Quebec epoch, and two of the
different kinds shown in our first Illustration.

To the Editor Of The Trt6unS
SIR: There are two questions III relation TO
the of Mrs. Schneider, proprietor OF the hotel High
Bridge Park.
Frs-The extent OF the police Jurisdiction OF this De-
partment and the limits OF the Jurisdiction OF the
Municipal Police In the parks These the sole ques-
lions with which myself, and append copy
OF my letter 10 the president Of the Police Department.
which has reference simply 20 the statutes and acts
under which the High Bridge Park laid out and the
police force OF this Department organized.
SecOnd-The question whether Mrs Schneider has vio-
lated the Excise law. Upon this have not advised
her, and she acting upon the advice of her own
lawyer. So far she keeps hotel within the
full meaning OF the law and not within any technical
construction She entertans permanent boarders and
has accommodations their horses and carriages aud

In the college the sophomores hear one lecture per
week on this important subject. They cannot
near more until the senior year, when they have
had time to forget what they learned as sopho-
mores, aud even then it is made optional
