This is the first time that one has had before his eyes the anatomical structure of the bark of a Syringodendron, a plant which has not yet been found in a petrified state. It is coal, then, with its structure preserved, that allows of a verification of the theory advanced by several scientists that the often bulky trunks of Syringodendron are bases of Sigillariæ.
Syringodendron pes-capræ; tangential vertical section in the corky part of the bark, X200. The interest in sports of different kinds is increasing considerably in the capital of the German Empire.
