 room for doubt that these differences are due to actual changes in the 

 star." The star is red. 



No. 310. -Leonis. — Included by Schonfeld in his provisional list. 

 He says, " 14° 2239 des Bonner Sternverzeichness, 9"" 5 Peters hat 

 dea Stern friiher als schwach 11"" gesehen, April 23, 1873 vermisst, 

 Juli 12 wieder schwach gesehen. Seit Dec. 30, im hiesigen Eefractor 

 unsichtbar. Die Yeranderlichkeit ist wohl sieher, aber doch die 

 Wiederscheinung und eine genaue Positionbestimmung abzuwarten."
