A New WRINKLE. The Indians of
Alaska have been recently Initiated in
to the mysteries of distilling whiskey
by discharged U. S. Soldier, and are
now selling whisky to the benighted
whites of Sitka and other Alaskan posts
at 80 a bottle. Their stills consist of
two coal oil cans and coiled piece of
kelp, and their mash of molasses, pota>
toes, berries and little yeast powder.
Notwithstanding their primative appa-
ratus. they manage to tuin out pretty
fair article of whisky, which they call
HootZ-noo. ''HootZ-noo cocktails"
are the correct thing in Sitka now.

lor various parts OF the world. almost
ehllreiy excluding America, Mr.. Mel.
urum has found that, without exctp.
lioA, more rain falls in the maxln'a
than IN the minima sun-spot years. A
late discussion of Mr.. G. A. ScLott,s M.
llcle on the "Rainiall Of the United
States" IN which the respective rain.
falls at one hundred and seven stations
are taken for comparison, points TO
the same conclusion.
IN striking confederation Of the
theory above stated and illustrated are
the results OF the investigation made
ny Mr.. Dawson, Principal of McGill
college, ut Montreal, In reference to
the fluctuations OF the great northern
lakes. Apart from the annual rise and
lall OF these lakes, aud also from the
sudden and Irregular elevation aud de-
preston OF their surfaces, varying from
lew Inches 10 several feet, these vast
eXpahses OF water are subject to a gem
eral rise and fall, which extends
through o period OF many years, aud
winch may be termed their secular va
ration. Mr.. Dawson conceived that
lhls last variation might possibly be
cahneeted with the development OF the
sun spots, aud from the data he oh.
tanned, 1t appeared that the lakes we've
higher IN the maXima sun spot years
lhan during the minima.
The years lS59-60-6l were maXima
years OF sun-spot area, and 1866 .67.BS
mlnima years. by comparison of
the United States lake survey observa.
tons 1t was found that the level of the
lakes was higher during the first group
of years than during the second, Tor
upon taking the average level for the
maXima years and comparing it with
that Tor the minima years, it appeared
mat during the maximum period Of
the sun-spots the surface of Lake On
tario was higher by 81 inches than
during the minimum period, Lake SD
perior 49, inches, Lake Michigan 2O.G
inches, aud Lake Erie II inches.
From the data mt his command, Mr..
Dawson constructed curve represent
ing the secular variation In the level
OF the northern lakes from l79S to 1870,
ana its correspondence with the curve
which represents the variation in the
extent Of the solar spots is very re-
markable. 1t is worthy of notice that
the year 1887, when the sun spots was
the greatest known, was followed in
1888 by the highest recorded level III
the waters of the lakes Erie ana Onta-
rio. These results are not regarded by
the learned investigator rs conclusive,
but he trusts that they may lead to Il
more systematic pursuit of this impor-
tant subject, For important it is, bear
ing MS it does upon the question Of the
connection of the rainfall on this con-
tinent with the connections in the sun,
for the secular changes in the level of
the waters in these lakes must depend
upon the fluctuations of the rainfall
upon the vast territory which forms
the respective watersheds of these in
land seas.

In the opinion of many distinguished
acientjsta there is an intimate conhec-
tion between the connections that oc-
cur in the sun, and which are indica-
ted by the appearance OF spots ana Va'
rious terrestrial phenomena OF gen
eral nature. The extent OF the SOAR
spots varies from year to year, oeing
greatest at periods about ten or eieVeh
Years apart. Beginning with n max
imum year. the spots decrease IN ex'
tent for about five years, on an aver
age, and then gradually increase wv y
aeeond maximum is reached IN ABOUT
five wears more, after which the de-
crease begins again and SO on III colI
tinual alienation. This interval oi
ten or eleven years Is called the sun
spot cycle" u,o
The researches of Mr.. Medium, the
director of the Meteorological Ooserv-
atory OF Mauritius, indicated n connec-
ton between the cyclones OF the In,
dian ocean and OF the West Indies ana
the sun-spots; the one varying with
tho other. Prof LOOMS has shown
that there Is a striking similarity be-
tween the curves that represent the
changes In the extent of the solar spots
aud those which represent respect, e.
ly the mean daily range OF the mag,
netic declination, and the NUMBER OF
auroras observed each year. Accord
ing to Poey, the connections OF the
earth respond TO those In the sun, and

The Frontier Battalion
JAcKspoRo, August "a. lS,5.

JAchsboRO, August ID, 1876.
TO the Editor of the Dallas Herald:
The Lone Star State has at last real.
IL ed the important fact that if Won de-
ii re II thing done well you must do il
yourself, and has now fully organized
the Frontier Battalion, the govern
ment troops having proved of but little
If any benefit in protecting the from
tier. 1t is strange, yet nevertheless
true, that less than two hundred I'M
disciplined men have accomplished in
few months what ten times that
number of well disciplined United
States troops failed to do in as many
years-stopped Indian depredations
upon nearly four hundred
miles of border. The fact
speaks for itself, and the system under
which the frontier companies work.
You miss, when watching party of
rangers prepare for an expedition, the
ceremonies Of discipline incident to n
departure of Government troops, which
seems ridiculous to an old frontiers
man who knows that nothing but dis.
patch will avail anything in Il work Of
this kind. The alacrity with which
horses are saddled, mules packed and
scout started is rs mysterious to the
blue coats as it is inc0mprehensible.
The presence of the Frontier Battal-
lion upon the border is already being
felt. Ranches long deserted on ac-
count Of Indian raids are now being
rebuilt, and farms, abandoned for the
same reason, (which have once again
become the wild mans home" are
now 'enived by the voice of labor
and the song of cheer"

A Few Facfs-COmmOI, Sense.
the Editor of The Dallas Herald:

10 the Editor OF Inc Dallas Herald
Though of small Importance it is
well to have correct views on matters
Of public interest During the late
canvass it was cOntended by many
that each of the three counties in this
district, AS II matter Of right, ought to
have one Of the three delegates. AS a
matter OF courtesy, there was much to
favor that view, but rs of right there
was no real justice in it, because the
actual population of Dallas county is,
rs near rs can be determined, equal to
Tarrant and Ellis combined, yet be-
tween them they have enjoyed for six
years, NYe-siXths of the representation
from the district and Dallas only one
sixth. That ia, between them they
have had the senator and two repre-
sentatives, and Dallas only one repre-
sentative. a senator, IN the law-mak-
ing power, is equal to three repteaen-
tailVes. OF this, however, Dallas coun-
by has never complained. We only
think the other counties ought to bear
the fact in mind. 1t only happens
that our district is composed of
three counties; Others have two and
many from four to seven or eight conn
tics: vet every district has three dele
gates and no more.
Thus Collin, Denton and Wise form
district, bat Collin has elected two
delegates, Denton one and Wise
none. Grayson, Cooke, Mon
tague and Clay form another dis
trict. Grayson has two of the dele
gates, Cooke one, Clay and Montague
noue. Hunt, Hopkins, Wood, Rains
and Delta compose district, yet Hunt
gets two OF The delegates and Wood
one, leaving Hopkins IA large county,
Rains and Delta without any. Calves
ton, Brazoria and Matagorda form an
other district. Galveston gets two ana
Matagorda one, leaving the old mother
county of Brazoria, the cradle of TeXian
liberty, without any. The counties of
Corvette, McLennan, Bosque, Hamil-
ton, Brown, Coleman, Runnels and
Comapche constitute district, yet Me-
Lehman gets two and C0manche one OF
the delegates, leaving the other SIX
counties without onG. In all the iore.
going districts Democrats, and most OF
them farmers, are elected, and In only
two were nominations made, so, II
either Dallas, Tarrant or Ellis had
elected two of the three delegates
wherein would have been the grounds
of complaint or the danger of an earth
quake. The present district system is
bad enough without adding to its inJus-
tice local prejudice. The simple truth
IL, that eacb district is n unit for these
purposes, regardless OF Counties ana
the people have the right to vote Tor
whom they please, regardless OF Where
men live in the district.
