Camllle Flammnr lon, the noted French UMtronomer, la dead. ti CarniMo Flammarlon, the French poet-rut ronomer, made astronomy popular to the laynmn. Jfe suxar coated astronomical factfl, but while he won' applause from the luymun pome of hln Berious minded contem porarh'H In the study of astronomy at tucked many of his theories as pure fancies. Flammarlon, when a boy nlno years od, wllnc'HHt'H the sun eclipsed by the ntpon. Awed by this phenomenon, his ofalef concern wrh In how astronomers who predicted thin event, were able tor tell. Thereafter, tho lad could us ually be found nt minuet on a neihbor- , Ins hill watching the departing orb and waiting for the uiuiearance of the sturs. " In his 15th year he wrote a book on tho oriKin of the world, but, in his own words, "It luckily never met a pub lisher." He entered tho famous Paris Ob servatory and became an assistant as tronomer to Le Verrler, and wrote his first published hook at nineteen yeurs of age. It was translated at once to almost every language. He soon assumed direction of the scientific review "Cosmos," and also published his second scientific work, "The World Imaginary and the World Heat." With tho famous aeronaut Godard, tho young astronomer ascended in balloons to study the heavens. These observations extended over a period of five years. During the Franco-Prussian war In 1871, he demonstrated tho practical application of his knowledge of as tronomy and telescopes. Hidden In an observatory at Passy, as captain of a special corps, ho commissioned other astronomers to assist him In study of the Prussian troops banked around Paris. All overtures for public office after .the war were refused by Flammarlon. He devoted himself to studying double and multiple stars, their colors, and spots, the which he proper motions and sun v nances of the science in specialized. Most of his great achievements dur the latter part of his lifo were accom plished In his observatory at historic Juvisy. It wits called the "half way house of kings and ctourtlers." Here Napoleon had received the news of the fall of Purls and from here he de parted to Fontuinebleau to bid adieu to his army, in 1814. The estate was a gift to Flammarlon from an admir er, M. Meret. Flammarlon will be remembered for his many books, written In a poetic and philosophic vein. While great se crets of the universe are therein dis closed, they are clothed in language that Is as entertaining as a novel. It is on this that his popular fame rests. Flammarlon himself had said: "Within the last quarter of acentury our sublime science has been wholly transformed. Instead of watching in ert masses in motion through the void of apuce, the study of the evolutions of the stars and life has taken Its place. It is a signal advance over the old school, and may be looked upon us likely to prove the grandest feature of astronomicul science in the near fu ture. John L. Sullivan knocked out 16G men on his famous tour.
