Scientific paper

THE meteor shower of Biela's comet, referred to in your ``Astronomical Notes'' as likely to occur on the 27th inst, should also be looked for on several evenings preceding that date. Last year there were more of these slow-moving Andromedes on the 25th than on the 27th of November. On the former night, from 5h. 30m. to 7h., I saw sixteen shooting stars, seven of which belonged to this stream, for they showed a good radiant at R.A. 24° Dec. 45° N. Yet on the 27th only two others were noted out of a total of 10 recorded during a watch from 9h. to 10h. 30m. An occasional look out is therefore advisable on several nights about the 27th, when, if meteors are seen in more than ordinary profusion, it will be important to record their numbers and paths.
