The annual election of the corporate oiliccrs of the New Yrrlt. New Haven and Hartford Railroad will be held in NOVember next. following the annual stock liolders' meeting and election of directors next month. The matter which will be awaited with the most interest by those concerned in the af- fairs of the New Haven road, is who sill succeed to the presidency. whith. by that time will in all probability. have been finally vacated by Mr. f'harles 1’. Clark. Despite the opinions which have been with more or less per— Iistencc expressed in other papers. that President Clark's successor will be a New Haven man from outside this State, the Palladium says it is in a po- st ion to announce that Vice Presi- . t John M. Hall will be the Consol- illuicd's next prI-sident; that for more than a year the way has been prepared for him and that. too. by some of the very men who have been anonymous- ly and otherwise accredited with hav- .ng an intention to influence the se- lection of various men for the posi- :ion. A study of the various rumors which have been published since President (,Ylark's announcement of his intention o resign is proof. if any were needed. that lIcy have been mostly been mere conjecture. it would also appear in Ionic cases, for. no very apparent rea- ron. that the wish was father to the conjecture.

Most of the gigantic animals of geo- logical eras belonged to species which have completely vanished. and of those which have living representatives it is difficult to say whether they have undergone a true change of size or whether the modern examples are merely stirvlvnls of smaller contempo- rary varieties. The larger animals have a tendency to disappear first in l partial failure of food supply. (ll- zantic nrmadillos closely resembling hose of the. present day were former- ly abundant in South America. The remains of huge sloths are found in Cuba and North America. Sharks ai- tsinlng a length of more than 100 feet are found in comparatively recent fossil deposits. Another fish which represents a larger prehistoric species is the American bony pike. which is one of the few eurvivals of the enor- mous ganoids of the secondary strata. The tiny nautllus of the present day had kindred ill or 12 feet long in earlv times. Another sr'nall shellfish. the pteropod. whose delicately complex _ structure is packed in an inch of shell. is found in fossll‘remains to have reached the respectable length of a couple of feet.
