Abstract
POSITIONS OP DANIEL'S (1907d) AND MOREHOUSE'S (1908c) COMETS.—Comet 1907d having been observed during the opposition of 1908, Herr H. H. Kritzinger has calculated an ephemeris for the coming opposition, and publishes it in No. 4317 of the Astronotnische Nachrichten. The ephemeris position for April 16 is 15h. 20.2m., -7° 50′, and the estimated magnitude is 14.3, but the comet may be as much as 3.8 magnitudes fainter than this. There is just a possibility, however, that it may be re-observed by long-exposure photographs.
