A big astronomical event is
about due-the return Of the main
body of November meteors. The
splendor of the display in 1888,
according to the Scientific Ameri-
can, made such an impression that
it has ever since occupied a place
in the popular heart as the most
gorgeous and startling of celestial
pageants. The meteors return
every thirty-three and one third
years. There are reasons for anti
cipating q possible disappointment
on this return, however. The me-
teors have been scattering during
the last sixty years and the planet
Jupiter has had hand in the van
dial work. But there is certain to
be a meteoric shower. which will
be robbed of some of its splendor
by the bright moon. The maxi
mum of the display may be expect
ed soon after midnight on the
morning of November 16.
