.HE conventional double is not

ME conventional double is not
confined to the SECOND hand,
but may be made by the
fourth hand, with the same result
as in the other case, the only dif-
ference being that when the fourth
hand doubles he is asking player
to make bid who has passed with
out bid.
The difference, however, is this. A
player who passed up a bid made
by an opponent on his right may
have good reasons for not saying
anything. He may be quite sure that
he can save the game against the
contract; or he may have his doubts
about the expediency OF risking a
call that promises little or no hope
OF game for his own side, especially
if he has to bid two.
Doubling as an ask for bid from
a partner who has passed up the op-
portunity to make a free bid is a
very different matter; because that
partner has not only shown that
he has nothing worth bidding on
but may not have q trick in his
hand. We constantly see a dealer
pass, second hand make a bid, and
third hand double. The third hand
is asking player to produce tricks
enough to go game when he has al
ready announced that he has nothing
in particular. Such doubles are very
dangerous and should never be made
unless the doubler can stand an an
swer from a practically trickless
hand.
Some players decline to double
two-trick bids, and for a long time
they would not think Of doubling
bids Of three under any circum-
stances. What is the objection to
it? If, as pointed out in last article,
the object Of the double is to get a
contract that promises game, why
not bid game? This is one Of the
things one learns in Contract Bridge,
in which the values Of the hands are
brought very forcibly to the atten-
tion Of the players.
Another point about bids Of three
is that they are invariably shut-outs,
sometimes called preemptive bids.
II such bids were not afraid Of some
thing they would not try to shut out
other bids. Many players assume
that any one who bids three spades
right off the bat must be very weak
in hearts. AS rule pregmptive bids
in any suit show that the hand is
good for little unless that suit is the
trump.
The natural inference is that if
the opponents have anything worth
while, all they need do to reduce the
preamptive bidder to innocuous
desuetude is to make some other suit
the trump, or call no-trumps. Here
is a case in point:

Mount Argyle belong TO corals, and
although mostly fragments, Professor
+. b. Meek has been able to specifcal-
ly identify the following: Alveolites
multiseptatus, Cladopora prolifica,
Smithia Hennahi,, Diphyphyllum fas-
ciculum.
From the Blue ridge, near the
top of the series, we have: Spirifer
Engelmanni, Productus subaculeatus,
Pleurotomaria sp?
In the calcareous shales no fossils
have as yet been found. The sill
ceous limestone which caps Telegraph
peak contains large numbers OF stems
of crinoidea, especially abundant In
a fine-grained, white, cherry band
from which was also obtained a dor
sal valve of a new species SpirifeT
alba-pinensis, H. d w.
This fossil was taken from beds
which evidently underlie strata of
which there can be a little doubt but
that they belong TO the horizon OF the
Genesse slate; and although this IL
the only locality from which it has as
yet been recognized in Nevada, 1t is
known IN the Wasatch range asso-
ciated with the i~ntersecting group OF
AOBCli0 lloiA 05atA III A<obaa Jul
yons, which show close afinities with
the upper Devonian and at the same
time are allied to the Waverly group
of Ohio
The black argillaeeous shales
which form 50 prominent a feature,
both in the geological and physical
aspect of the district, are but indis-
tinctly recognized in other places and
without fossils. This may arise part.
~ from the beds in the neighboring
ranges becoming more sandy or cal
careous, thus losing their marked
habit, and in part from Offering ex-
posures far less readily studied. There
can be but little doubt but that the
horizon will be clearly identified at
some future time in other PaleoZoic
uplifts of the Great Basin. Here al
White Pine the black shales have
been somewhat roughly separated
into two groups, the lower more ar
%gillaceous, the upper a%renaceous. but
divided more sharply by the associa-
ton OF species.
From the lower strata we have
Leiorhynchus quadricostatus, Avicul'
cpecten cataetus. Lunulicardium fra
gosum. Nuculites triangulus, COMA
tites Kingii.
From the upper beds we obtained
Streptorhynchus. Spirifer d~isjuncta,
Productus semireticulatus.
This association of species from
the lower beds with Leiorhynchus
Guadricostatus a characteristic fossil
from the Genesse slate has naturally
led Messrs. Hall and Whitfield TO re
gard the horizon As Devonian and the
everything upper series with the equal
~ characteristic Spirifer resembling
S disjuncta as Of sub-earboniferous
age.
THE sandstone beds are mostly
barren. of organic remains, their
chief Interest being derived from the
number of impressions of stems and

scarce in the Paleozoie sandstones OF

That the age OF the rocks as found

Paleozoic is beyond any contention.
Whether the writer encountered any
rocks other than those of the carbo-
~niferous system Is doubtful, as the
fossils collected by him, spirifers and
produetus, appear to belong to the
Ely formation. The White Pine shale.
which has been previously Identified
by biologists as occurring in the Hi.
pah basin, is regarded by the most
recent studies to be of early carbonif-
erous age tMississippian), although
Arnold Hague and c. ID. Walcott had
previously assigned same to the De
vonian. In this paper the writer Is
disposed TO favor the results OF g. II.
Girty. whose recent studies discloses
the White Pine shales to belong to
the carboniferous system.
