Abstract
A MAGNIFICENT display of red sky-glow has been seen here. The last observed was in September last (the 17th, the 27th, and the 28th), and only feeble ones have been noticed since up to June 11. At that date the sky glowed with a magnificent grayish pink on the whole of the northern horizon until 9 o'clock p.m. Yesterday the glow was still brighter, and at 9 15 p.m. it extended over the whole of the northern and north-eastern horizon. It was brighter than even last year, but acquired its maximum of brilliancy at a later hour than last summer.
