Scientific paper

AFTER sunset this evening there was a peculiar pink flush in the western sky here similar to that which attracted so much attention in England last year. Twenty-five minutes after the sun had gone down, the colour was so vivid as to be reflected from the snows of Mount Baker (10,700 feet), which is about seventy-five miles east of this place. Shortly afterwards it disappeared, but reappeared thirty-five minutes later, prolonging the twilight and making the stars look green, finally dying away very gradually. The weather for the past twelve days has been very wet, and to-night's is the first clear sunset in that time. Fourteen days ago, when on the Fraser River, eighty miles from here, I saw after sunset a very brilliant aurora borealis. I write this thinking there may be a repetition of the phenomena in England, in which case this note may possess interest.
