Ch. 2610. Discovered by me to be 
a variable of the Algol type in 1887, with a probable 
period of about 1^ 3^^, Dr, Chandler's elements 
give the following: Epoch of Min. 1887, March 
26"* 15^ 18"^.0 + 1^3 3^ 15"^ 46« E. Varies from 5« 9 
to 6^.7, Duration of decrease and increase about 
2| hours each ; remains at maximum brightness 
22 hours^

Ch. 3407, Discovered to be variable by 
Paul in 1888, with a probable period of either 11** 
31™ or 7i*46°». My observations of 1891 confirmed 
the variabilityj established the last named period as 
the true one, and determined the variation to be of 
the Algol type. Dr, Chandler, from a more rigid 
determination of elements, 
Epoch of Min. 1888, April 13*1 12^ 55"^.4 + 0** 7^ 
46^" 48^0 E. Variation from 6^7 to 7»'.3. The star 
remains at maximum brightness about 4^^ 30"^ ; the 
decrease and increase occupying each about 1^ 40"^. 
This variable has the shortest known period.
