9.29.88, 6.65; 10.8.88, 6.45. Discovered to be a vari- 
able of short period in 1888. (See A. J., No. 210.) 
From a final discussion of all mv observations to the 
present time (1891), I have adopted the following as 
the best attainable elements : 1882, September 4.428 
Green. M. T. +17^.125641 E for the epoch of max- 
imum. The minimum occurs earlier by 6=^.250. 
The variation is about eight tenths of a magnitude, 
or from 6.2 to 6.95.
