THE CITIZEN
APRIL ASTRONOMY.
Several typographical errors crept in
to my last article, which it is of consid
erable importance to have corrected.
For the angular diameter of \ enus. in
stead of 37 minutes 6 seconds, read 3..fi
seconds of tire. For fnmacs. read fur- j
naces: for septillous, read septillions;
f >r aries, read Aries, and for Titan, read
Titan.
During the month of April all the j
major planets except L ranus and Nep
tane may Vie seen with the naked eye j
between sunset :;iul midnight. Venus
although approaching the earth, is be- \
coming less brilliant, because as she ,
overtakes the earth more and more of her j
unilluminated disk is directed toward
the latter. On the 2i*th she will be in
conjunction with the sun and nearest
the earth, the distance between the two
planets at closest approach being about |
261 millions of miles. Venus sets this ,
evening at 9:31 and on the 15th at 8:33,
local time.
Mercury, on the 2e?'th, will be at j
greatest elongation from the sun, his |
angular distance from the latter being ,
20 deg. and 43 seconds E. This planet j
being somewhat elusive and dilMcult to |
find, is seldom seen by ordinary observ
ers. When in the best position for ob- ,
servation he shines with the brilliancy
of an average star of the first magni- ;
tude. To those who wish to see Mt-r- j
enry, we suggest the following easy
method of finding him. If the sky is
clear on the evening of the 2*th. let the
observer at 7: V> o'clock, standard time
direct his eye to a point in the horizon
2U degrees north of due west, and then
shift the gaze straight upward from
that point 12 degrees, and the object
sought for >vill be seen. These direc
tions will be approximately correct for
two or three evenings before or after
the 2«th, but the latter date is prefer
able if the meteorological conditions fa
vor it. as the planet is then at a greater
elongation from the sun. At the time
indicated Mercury is equal in altitude
to the seven stars, and is only about a
degree south of that agglomeration.
It will be interesting to observe the
large apparent size of the full moon on
the 17th inst. The moon is in perigee
on that date, and is uncommonly close
to the earth. A calculation shows that
the distance between the earth and its
satellite at 7 P. M. on that day will be
but 222,127 miles, center to center.
From surface to surface of the two
bodies would be but little more than
217,000 miles, and if when the moon
crosses the meridian on that date, it is
in the zenith of the observer (which it
will be in south latitude 20 degrees) he
may consider himself within that dis
tance of the lupar surface.
The question will naturally arise,
why is the moon so much closer to the
earth than usual at this time? Instead
of the earth being in one of the foci of
the elliptical orbit which the moon de
scribes, it is the common center of gra
vity of these two bodies that is so sit
uated, and both the earth and moon re
volve around this common center of
gravity, the earth describing a small
orbit of about 3,000 miles radius. Now
when the earth is displaced from this
common center of gravity towards the
moon and the moon is at the same time
at the lower apsis or perigee, it follows
that the moon must then be closer to
the earth than the average perigean dis
tance by an amount equal to the radius
of the little orbit referred to. If when
the moon is at the lower apsis the earth
is displaced from the common center of
gravity in a direction from the moon, it
is plain the distance between them will
be 3,000 miles greater than the average
perigean distance. The distance of the
moon at apagee is likewise subject to
these variatiqps, its maximum distance
being about 203,000 miles.
On the evening of April sth an inter
esting phenomenon may be witnessed.
The two stars 19 Tauri and 20 Tanri of
the group the Pleiades will be oc
culted by he moon. These stars are
very fain being each of the sth magni
tude, and a good opera glass with a per
fectly clear sky will be necessary to ob
serve the occultations, although it is
possible the immersions behind the
dark limb of the moon might be observ
ed by extra good eyes unaided. When
not in proximity to the moon these stars
may be easily seen with the naked eye.
The eastern standard time of the phases
and the angles of position as computed
for the latitude and meridian of Butler,
are as follows: —

What Everybody Says About Brandy.
That the Wines and Brandy of the
Speer >7. J. Wine Co., Passaic. X. J,
are leading all others in public favor.
Their Wines are unexcelled for delicacy
of flavor, and are pronounced by the
most capable judges to be the very best
in the market. For pure grape Brandy
their Old Climax, vintage <Jf 1876, is
admittedly the best to be had and more
reliable than French Brandies. Drug
gists sell it.

And all the rest forjjot for which he

There is said to be a growing belief

that home-grown tobacco equals the

to struggle with, and the size of the bills usually caiis
forth a groan. They always cease when we under
take the contract. The family is just as well shod, with just
as stylish shoes as they ever were, but the bill is less. They
don't understand it however. It is a species of witchcraft
perhaps—sort of a shoe leather-de-main, as it were. But we
know the reason. The prices have been too high. That is
where we make our gain. We see that the shoes are a little
higher grade than others offer, and then we chop the price
down. If you are paying too much for your shoes, (and you
are, if you are not buying them here) don't you think this
would be a good time to reform ? Suppose you come in and
have a chat with us about this. Never too busy to talk shoes.
