weakness. She did not realize he was
dead, but neighbors came and bore
the body into the house.
Mr.. Moersch was an active worker,
especially considering his poor health.
He came to Akron in 1862 aiding Hen
ry Cent?, the founder of the Ger
mania, and remaining with that paper
several years as its foreman. Before
that he had worked in Shanesville and
Cleveland at painting, but was train
ed as a printer in the Office of the
Schoharie, N. Y, Patriot, and the
New York Sun. He was educated in
New York city, where he was born,
Jan. IL, 1S42, so that he was just go
years old.
Gen. Franz Siegel was a school
mate. He married in Akron Nov. 13,
1871, Miss Celestia f., youngest daugh-
ter of the late Elisha N. Bangs, Of
Akron, who survives him. Their only
son, Wallace Peter Marsh, very
promising young man, died in Pitts
burg, Jan. 21, 1894.
While with the Germania. Mr..
Moersch had an attack of typhoid
fever. which kept him away from
duty for an entire year, and from
whose effects he never fully recovered.
In 1878, he was elected clerk of Port
age township, and was reelected,
serving until 1888. when he was elect
ed Justice of the Peace of Portage
township, filling two terms of each Of
flee very acceptably. Always DEM
ocrat, he invariably had strong Re-
publican support, ensuring each of his
four elections. He was also assistant
secretary of the Summit County Agri-
cultural society for dozen or more
years. In the publication of fair prem
ium lists, of Christmas magazines
and supplements and programs, he
found a favorable acquaintance with
the business men of Akron, and In
the spring Of 1887 was engaged by
the Beacon as Its advertising man. He
did efficient work for nearly dozen
years continuously, beside other work
since. Later, he was with the Sunday
Star as advertising manager, most of
the time for three years, also aiding
the Democrat at times. When the
Colonial theatre opened last spring,
Mr.. Moersch was given the program
privilege and also had II for the com.
ing season.
In his death, Typographical union,
NO iS2, loses one of Its charter mem
bers. and the art of printing one OF
Its Oldest craftsmen In the city. The
local union used to meet In his office,
and often, when there were not enough
actual members to keep the charter
alive, Squire Moersch paid the Der
capita tax for the required number.
His venerable father Peter Mocrsch,
OF Baltic, Tuscarawas county, survives
him In good health at tho age OF 81,
having been postmaster and Justice
or the Pence there for many years.
His three brothers nre connected with

Our Earth is Moving slower,

We all know that the earth reyolves
on its axis once in twenty-four hours.
Millions of years ago the day was
twenty-five hours; millions of years
before that it was twenty-one hours.
AS we look back into time we find the
earth revolving faster and faster.
There was a time, ages ago, when the
earth was rotating in day Of five Oh
six hours in length. In the remotest
past the earth revolved in a day of
about five hours. 1t could revolve no
faster and remain single, unbroken
mass.
When our day was about five hours
long the moon was in contact with
the earth's surface. 1t had just broken
away from its parent mass. AS the
length of the terrestrial day increased,
so did the distance Of the moon.
Whenever the rotation time of a
planet is shorter than the period of
revolution of its satellite, the effect
of their mutual action is to accelerate
the motion of the satellite and to force
it to move in a larger orbit-to increase
Its distance, therefore.
The day of the earth is now shorter
than the month--the period Of revolu-
tion--of the moon. The moon, is, there
fore, slowly receding from use, and it
has been receding for thousands of
centuries. But the day of the earth is,
as we have seen, growing longer. The
finger of the tides is always pressing
upon the rim of our huge flywheel,
and slowly but surely lessening the
speed of its rotation. So long as the
terrestrial day is shorter than the
lunar month the moon will continue
to recede from us.-New York Herald.

A eREAT SOLDIERS HOME.
Both Union and Confederate y~terani
to Be Cared For.

Both Union and Confederate Veterans
to BE Cared For.
The Home for Disabled Volunteer
Soldiers at Johnson City, Tenn. which
is now being built, will, when COM
pleted, be one of the most notable
groups of buildings in that state. Aside
from its architectural value, the home
will be remarkable because of the
broad and liberal plan on which it will
be conducted There are homes and
soldiers retreats in all parts of the
United States, but they are exclusively
either for union or for confederate
veterans This one will be, accord
ing to the plans which have been
adopted "a shelter for $500 men who
volunteered in the union or confeder-
ate service in the civil war and in the
war with Spain"
The home will comprise thirty-fve
buildings. Congress appropriated
$1,00O,000 toward the project, and the
home is to be completed in three
years. The site comprises a tract Of
land mile and three-quarters long
and three-quarters of a mile wide, situ-
ated in the heart of the Tennessee
mountains. The place is so delight
fully situated that it is believed 1t
will eventually become a popular
health resort.
Among the larger buildings Of the
group will be a memorial hall, mess
hall and chapel, and a canteen similar
to those which were maintained at
army posts many years ago will be
one of the features. The grounds will
be laid out in parks, groves and drive
ways, and the landscape features will
add to the picturesque appearance Of
the home. Gen. John T. Richards, of
Maine, has been appointed superin-
tendent of construction.

GuildhalI.

1t is extraordinary that the citizens
OF London should permit the one his
torical building which the corporation
possesses to be crowded up by build
ings destitute of a particle Of archi-
tectural merit or Interest. A full view
Londons Guildhall is impossible, so
long as it is obscured by the ugly and
incongruous edifice at its west end.
The cost Of opening out the hall would
be nothing to the corporation, and in
view Of the coming coronation and the
festive purposes to which the hall will
be put in connection with it, is it un-
reasonable to hope that this year will
be marked by the much-needed i'm
provement? The obstruction to be re.
moved is, it may be observed, very
small as compared with that which
had to be got rid of before Westmins-
ter Hall could be brought fully to view.
Three weeks work would do what is
needed. The Guildhall dates from
1411, but, being greatly damaged in
the great fire, was restored by Wren.

Islands In tho Indian nOsnn.


If you should want an island-that
is, an uninhabited island-for the pur-
pose of occupying 1t alone, Robinson
Crusoe like, or to use it for romantic
fiction or any other purpose, to the
exclusion of all others in the world,
you need have no trouble in finding
one If yod see fit to make a journey
to the Indian Ocean. In the waters
between Madagascar and India you
can find more than $4,000 OF them,
where there is not human being and
where you can, If you will. be mon
arch of all you survey; An English
traveller has recently been among the
small islands that dot the western end
of the Indian Ocean to make an in
ventory of them and reports that he
counted 16,100 and found only about
600 of them inhabited. Now, there is
a good chance for any ore who may
want an island These particular is
lands are not large, as islands go, but
very many Of them are sufficient for
the purpose Of a Robinson Crusoe or
any other novel hero, or for even a
small colony of shipwrecked mariners
or other persons who might be cast on
one of them or Seek for the purpose of
making a home pretty much out of the
busy world.

Yrr Big Fish Get Away.

It is perfectly plain that large fish
are more apt to escape than small ones.
Their weight s1d activity, combined
with the increased thickness and re-
sourcefulness of age and experience,
of course, greatly increase their abili-
ty to tear out the hook, and enhance
the danger that their antics will expose
a fatal weakness in hook, leader, line or
rod. Another presumption, which must
be regretfully mentioned, arises from
the fact that in many cases it is the
encounter with large fish which
causes such excitement, and such dis
traction and pewersion Of judgment,
as leads the fisherman to do the wrong
thing, or fail to do the right thing.

Origin of the Piano.

There lived at the court Of Prince
Ferdinand de Midici, about 200 years
ago, a Padun harpsichord maker
named Bartollemeo Christoferi, a man
of great inventive genius After many
experiments he solved the problem,
which had been a puzzle to the musi-
cal instrument makers of the period,
how to make a satisfactory working
''keyed psaltery," and by the method
he invented in overcoming the diff
culties inherent in the task, produced
an instrument which was the undoubt-
ed ancestor Of the pianoforte Of to-
day. From 1709-the date when
Christoferi made his four "keyed
psalteries' piano, at first slowly,
but afterward by leaps and bounds,
went on increasing and increasing in
popularity, until now its manufacture
has become great industry.
