Up to the eighteenth
scientists scouted the popular tra-
dition of stones falling from the
skies. But the tradition persisted.
Failing stars observed in 1803 dis-
pelled all doubts and the pheno-
menon began to be studied system-
atically. A stupendous shower of
meteors seen in this country on
Nov. 12. 1833. was the first phenom-
enon of its kind carefully described
by astronomers. Thus began the sci-
ence of meteoric astronomy.
Records of the past were searched
find evidence was found showing
that meteor showers had been ob-
served by the peoples of antiquity.
Humboldt. the crman naturalist. had
witnessed such a display in Novem-
ber, 1799. Similar displays were
seen in the same month in 1823.
again in 1832, and every year sub-
sequently up to 1342. Then the phen-
omenon shifted to the end of Octo-
her.
The August showers are not sub-
ject to such deviations. They main-
tain great regularity and precision.
The date is always Aug. 10. Chin-
ese records speak of showers studied
more than ten centuries ago. In
France periodically is attested to by
the fact that the peasants call this
display the “fiery tears of Saint
Lawrence." whose fete day is ob-
