MAGNETIC STORM.
UNCONNECTED WITH THE COMET. By Telegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, Last Night. A slight magnetic storm was experienced in Christchurch, commencing shortly after 3 p.m. yesterday, and continuing with increasing strength until 8.20 p.m. The storm lasted until 4 a.ui. to-day. It is extremely improbable that the storm is at all attributable to the earth's passage through tire comet's tail. In May and September last year magnetic storms were experienced of greater strength than the one yesterday. Local observatories failed to observe anything unusual during the earth's passage through the comet's tail.
