GENERAL PIKE AND HIS ASSOCIATES. The Ancient and Accepted Order of Scot- tish Rite. How the Order Was Started—The Tem- ple in Washington—General Pike at Home—Who He Is and ‘What He Looks Like. —_————. T is not claimed that the Ancient and Ac cepted Order of Scot” tish Rite ia of extreme , antiquity, yet the frosts Jot time decorate ity 7 brow. Although in a detached form, doubt- lesa some of the degrees had their origin as early as the fourteenth cen- tury, yet the Rite as such, germinated in the latter part of the seventeenth century and took its distinctive character in the beginning of the eighteenth century. By the year 1761 the lodges, chapters, coun- cils and consistories of the rite had increased and extended throughout the continent of Europe. On the 27th of August, 1761, Stephen Morin was commissioned inspector general for the new world by the Grand consistory con- vened at Paris. When Morin arrived in America he appointed Moses Michael Hays ey general with power to appoint others. Hays appointed Isaac De Costa deputy for Sou Carolina, who after his death was succeeded b‘ Joseph Meyers. On the 25th of October, 1762, the Grand constitutions were ratified in Berlin, Prussia, and on the Ist of May, 1786, the con- stitutions of the supreme council of the thirty- third degree were granted at Berlin, No su- preme councils of the thirty-third degree were established anywhere in the world until after that date, and the powers of the inspectors general and their deputies became vested in bed supreme councils and the bodies under em. GEN. ALBERT PIKE, The first supreme council ever established under the new constitution of 1786 was that at Charleston, 8.C., whose jurisdiction extended constitutionally over the whole United States until the Northern Supreme conncil was cousti- tuted. Then the northern and southern juris- dictions were geographically defined. On May 381, 1801, the supreme council at Charleston was opened by John Mitchell, who succeeded Meyers and Frederick Dalcho, and the number was completed by the addition of Emanuel De la Motta, Dr. J. Auld, Dr. James Moultrie, Abraham Alexander, M. C. Livy, Thomas B, Bowen and J. De Lieban. This su- preme council was the mother council of the world and all other supreme councils of the rite derive their authority from it, directly or indi- rectly. This rite is in amity with all symbolic grand lodges, grand chapters, councils of royal and select masters and grand commanderies recognizing no other bodies claiming to be Masonic. THE THIRTY-THREE DEGREES. The Scotch Rite, or asit is now more usually designated, the Ancient and Accepted Rite, con- sists of thirty-three degrees, divided as follows: 1, Entered Apprentice; 2, Fellow-Craft, 3, Mas- ter Mason; 4, Secret Master; 5, Perfect Master; 6, Inmate Secretary; 7, Provost and Judge: 8, Intendent of the Buildings; 9, Elected Kuighta of Nine; 10, INustrious Elect of Fifteen; 11, Sub- lime Knights Elected; 12, Grand Master Archi- tect; 13, Knight of the Ninth Arch; 14, Grand Elect, Pertect and Sublime Mason; 15, Knight of the East; 16, Prince of Jerusa- lem; 17, Knight of the East and West; 18—sovereign prince of Rose Croix; 19—grand ontiff; 20—grand master of all symbolic Deeee: 21—Noachite. or Prussian knight; 2— knight of the Royal Ax, or prince of Libanus; 23—chief of the tabernacle; 24—prince of the tabernacle; 25—knight of the Brazen serpent; 26—prince of Mercy, or Scotch Trinitarian; 27— sovereign commander of the temple; 28—knight of the Sun; 29—grand Scotch knight of St, An- drew; 30—grand elect knight of Kadosh; 31— grand enquiring commander; $2—sublime prince of the royal secret. BODIES IN THE DISTRICT. The supreme council issued a charter to Osiris lodge of Perfection in the District of Columbia and toa Graad consistory here and they were both mentioned and recognized as Masonic bodies entitled to representation in the board of corporators of the Masonic ball associat ion in the act of Congress which incor- orated it. These bodies suspended work at he breaking out of the war of the rebellion, and the survivors of the members in 1870 pe- titioned the supreme council for a charter for a new lodge of perfection, to be known as Mith- ras lodge. which charter was issued December 80, 1870. and the existing Evangelist chapter of Rose Croix, Robert de Bruce council of Ka- dosh and Albert Pike consistory were char- tered soon after, THE SCOTTISH RITE SANCTUARY, These bodies formerly met over the Bank of the Republic, but two or three years ago pur- chased the property 1007 G street and tearing down all except the front of the building erected on their lota new hall containing a jarge cathedral, three lodge rooms, a banquet room, and numerous offices.

This was formerly the Rives mansion. It isan elegant building, and the official residence of the grand com- mander, The only thing on the outside of the house to denote its official character is found on the d-street aide. It is a short legend in Samaritan text carved in the brown stone over ee portal, which, translated, means His holy use, ‘THE PORTAL OF THE TEMPLE. Ascending the massive stone steps of 34 street you first step intoa wide hall or vesti- bule. On the right is the spacious office of the secretary general, Mr. Fred.

Here are bound manuscript translations made by Albert Pike of the Rigveda, Zend avesta and other works written ages before the Christian Era and in translating which he passes most of his time in his office on the second fioor, ALBERT PIKE is venerable in yearf as well as title. He was born in the city of Boston on December 29, 1809, the very day tho grand old man Wm. E. Gladstone first saw the light of day. Mr. Pike comes from a stock noted for ite longevity. His health is good, with the exception now and then of an attack of gout, although he takes but little exercise, Few mencan boast of such varied talents and attainments as Albert Pike and few men have more eventful lives. Enter- ing Harvard at the age of sixteen he soon left that institution and began teaching school for aliving. In after years his ripe scholarship attracted the attention of the Harvard faculty and they conferred on him the degree of master ofarts. In 1831 Mr. Pike started for the west, From St. Louis be went with a party onan ex- edition to Mexico and remained a year at Santa e. He was afterward oue of a party of trappers who visited the head waters of the Red and Brazos rivers and with these companions tray- elled 500 miles on foot to Fort Smith, Ark, In 1834 he became proprietor of the Arkansas ‘Advocace, aud while editing that paper studied law and two yeurs after was admitted to the bar. Inthe Mexican war he served with dis- tinction, and in the late civil war was a Confed- erate brigadier in commond of the Cherokee Indians, and was in the celebrated battle of Pea Ridge. After the war, Gen. Pike edited the Memphis Appeal and’ from Memphis he removed b New Orleans and practiced law. ts Eitay® About fifteen years ago his legal engagements brought him to Washington, and here or at Alexandria, Va., he has lived ever since. A recent biographer speaking of Albert Pike, says: at wes at Little Rock that this ‘grand old man of masonry’ first saw Masonic light—where he was initiated, passed and raised. It was there at any rate that he first presided as master in the east. Not very long after making Wash- ington his home he retirea from the Bar, and has since devoted his entire time and energy to the order he loves so well, The spiendid rit- uals of the Scottish rite today are fur the most art from his pen. When he accepted the Brena commandership the soqres were quite too commonplace for his broad mind and sub- limated fancy, 80 he went to work to re- cast and embellish them, and how well he has succeeded the intellectual, cultured mombers of the Scottish Rite can testify, Had he given the public the full benefit of his liter- ary lnbors he would today rank in the world of letters with Max Muller and Thomas Carlyle. Pike has the philological and critical tura of the one, with a comprehensive knowledge of the Oriental religion, and the bold. A I .

He is a manof gigantic frame, with « large head of the antique mold: his face is as soft asan infant's aad just as rosy, and bis lon, flowing beard and silken white locks, whic! fall gracefully over his shoulders, are much ad- tired. His eyes are as clear and as stron: a tiger's, and he*never uses glasses.

The ring is a curious object. being a triple ring of three small fold bands joined to- gether. This is worn on the little finger of the fight hand. te HIS APARTMENTS, Gen. Pike's private apartments are on the second and third floors, and his wine cellar and kitchen are in the basement.

FANCY FOR PIPES. Next to birds and flowers Gen. Pi is for odd-sbaped pipes. pipes from every country of the globe where smokers exist. Some of them are plump of bowl and long of stem; some are of fine, ws- thetic design and some are tiny things that hold only a pinch of tobacco. It is the rarest coliection of the sort in Washington. The commander's inkstands are quaint and artis- tic and his stock of quills have an old-timey and poetic look which is exceedingly inter- esting in this prosaic, conventional age. Gen, Pike is an incessant smoker, aud has a habit of allowing his fire to go out and of re- lighting every few minutes. He is an assidu- ous but easy Worker, and in the preparation of his allocation and in keeping up with his volu- minous correspondence he finds great pleasure. Does he ever dictate to a stenographer or type- writer? No, Gen. Pike ‘would RO sooner nse anytuing so modern as a typewriter than Jobn Ruskin would. Does he summon his valet by touching an electric-bell button or using a table spring bell? No. Nothing so modern or com- mon place as electric bells or table bells could havea place in his room, He appreciates sci- ence and scientific invention as much as any man, but for his private use away with all tove and so-called labor-saving fixtures.
