Obituary.


The Ill. Bro. Viennet, 33d0, Sow.
Gr.' Commander of the Supreme Coun-
ell of France, which derived its powers
from the Supreme Council at Charleston,
through the ILL.,. Bro. Comte de Grasse,
died on the 10th of July, at Val Saint
German, at the age of ninety-one. He
was member of the French Academy
He voted against the Consulate for Life,
and against the Empire, but fought in
the Emperor's ranks at Leipsie, and was
made prisoner there. During the one
hundred days he narrowly escaped trans
portation for voting against the Gcte adj
ditionael. He addicted himself to lite
rature at very early age. His "Phi-
losophical Promenade In Pere la Chaise
Cemetery was published ss long ago as
1924; and a wish which he expressed at
that time to be buried in a particular
spot in that place Of sculpture, from
which fine view Of Paris is obtained,
has now been carried out by his friends.
He was Peer in the time OF Louis
Philippe, and made himself remarked by
going to the Chamber as a bourgeois in
al omnibus, with an umbrella under his
arm. He wrote several fables and some
tragedies, among others "CIovis" and
" Constantin." His Aeademical dis
courses were models of purity of diction,
and some OF those delivered in his ex-
IRENE old age were among his best. He
took leading and successful part some
years ago, against the project of the gov
eminent to amalgamate the Supreme
Council of France with the Grand ORR
ent. There was not in that focus of OPP
position, the Academic Franchise, any
more bitter or persevering opponent of
the Second Empire than NJ. Viennet.
His predecessor as Grand Commander
was the Due Dscazss, who held high
rank under the Empire. Who his
successor will be we do not know.

Friday and Saturday were devoted by

affairs Of the Rite, but rot of general in
terest. There was marked disposition
70 go slow, resulting in the reference of
various matters to committees with in-
struetions TO report next week.
Among the subjects thus deferred were
a multitude Of applications for the So
1t being impossible 70 create all the apr
pieants, the Council directed the Special
Committee to make selection and re-

the Rite are in safe haads, and It's friends 1

Kept within healthy bounds. 4
