evenings. On two of these good determine
tons Of position were obtained with ring
micrometer on q three inch Clark refrec!or On
the other evenings the best could do was to
mako careful allineatious Of tho comet With the
telescope stars 10 the field. and careful re-
duction Of these has furnished positions which
Ere probably less than minute of arc 10 error.
MIR. Chandler has also calculated the orbit and
finds that it does not resemble that Of any known
comet. The movements of the meteor will De
ms follows: Between the 18Th and l4!h OF Jul y,
the comet will pass nearly over the celestial POLE

twelve hours in right ascension,i n the ephemetls.
Although the comet will slowly approach the
earth until the 18th Of July, it will become no
brighter, since it is receding from the sun more
rapidly. Although easily seen With three
inches aperture, the comet is difficult to observe
with the micrometcr on telescope OF that sze.
