Abstract
THE Quadrantids, or Boötids as they are sometimes called, the former constellation being modern and not fully recognised, ought to reappear under favourable auspices on the nights of Saturday, January 2, and Sunday, January 3; but the shower is a very fugitive one, and its more abundant phase will probably be confined to a few hours on one of the nights mentioned.
