The observing records of E.E. Barnard and more recent patrol photographs of the sky have been studied for an indication of a nightly variation in the occurrence of auroras at Yerkes Observatory. There appears to be a maximum probability in the neighborhood of local magnetic midnight, as at stations closer to the auroral zone. Some implications to auroral theory are discussed.
