Abstract
FOR the last four evenings, the 15th, 16th, 17th, and 18th, and again to-night, the colour of the sky from 20 to 25 minutes after sunset has taken that deep magenta glow looking very like the effect of a great fire, only lighter in tone. Last night, the 18th, this lasted until after 7 o'clock, and stars were then shining through it as they do through an aurora.
