IN OLD GRAVEYARD
SHOCK DOWNTOWN
Tombstones Used as Bases.
"Ghouls" Battle on Scene
Which Witnessed Last
Burial in 1 890.
HEEDLESS YOUTH PLAYS WHERE TEARS ONCE FELL
A graveyard that neighborhood chil
dren use ni a. pla ground, where tomb
stones are bases for Uo "Clravocird
Nine." Is a sight which has shocked ths
who wnlk ar live atone Passyunk nconne
near 2tt street. The graveyard i the
old Philadelphia Cemetery, bounded In
Passe unk and Snyder avenues nnd 21st
and 2Zd streets Across the way ore the
northernmost homes iR the G Irani tnte
The Inst funeral there was In 1M but
It might have been 4f yenrs ago, to h.dgc
from the ruin that covers the trait
Weed grown waist high and small trees
ancl underbrush thnt have sprang up In
the 2') J ears' desolation hide the white
tombstone so eloselv thnt n casual lan
over the torn Iron fence would cause the
uninformed observer to mistake the place
for a large and unusually unkempt vacant
lot.
But a look inside shows white
Ftones through the trees and nil that Is
left of one carefully kept fenced plot",
now hummocked and twisted and guarded
by strands of rusty Imn chains, strung
from pillars which pIriuI nnywaj but
upright.
CHAPEL A RUINoCS PILE.
Two weather-worn posts with drooping
gates stand at th- entiunco on Passyunk
avenue. Back of them In the thick of
the weeds is a slanty ruin that look more
like an old Spanish mission In southern
California than anything rtnnt todav.
This was the old receiving chapel, where
funerals brouu'ht up with the bodies and
ministers aid the last services.
It was built In W. a fact glenned by
Industriously rubbing a cornerstone set
In the side Then the (.Impel mac have
been a tine monument. Its bricks were
covered thick with brown plaster and
there was stained slass In Its narrow-cut
windows. But today the plaster has
shucked off in great patches nnd the
windows are crumbling, with their col
oied glass and sahes on the ground.
Back through the central arch of the
receiving clmpcl nnd over the weeds
glowing you ice more tombstones through
the trees.
"GHOULS" PLAV BASEBALL.
Walk through It and come to the base
ball diamond marked out by tombstones,
the scene of struggles of the "Graveyard
Nine " Rivals call Its members "The
Ghouls." but tho team plays after school
each day. running undisturbed and agile
over a tombstone that is the home plate
and sliding to second base, whore lie a
couple who died in March of '67.
"The Ghouls" is the most popular or
ganization In the cemeterv, because none
of the other diamonds there have more
than one tombstone apiece "The Ghouls' "
diamond has one for each base and homo
plate, with several thrown In out In right
field. Besides that, there is even a grand
stand made of overturned headstones and
corner posts, much vulued by spectators
when "The Ghouls" have a clos game on.
There Is u wide clearing where the cov
eted diamond was laid out. and the land
slopes awav M the eust and down to the
other diamonds All over the fields are
dotted with overturned tombstones and
small monuments.
The open spaces are most sought by the
children though when the are many and
the sun Is bright the ruined chapel In the
underbrush and tree Is a popular rsort
In twos or threes they hang back If you
ask them to look Inside tho chapel.
AFRAID OF GHOSTS.
"Dere's ghosts 'round here'" one. ex
plained, standing doubtfullv In the tail
gras with his foot on the tombstone.
I wouldn't go In. Jimmy." he advised
But Jimmy went In throusfh a trapdoor
In the side and returned later, dust cov
ered, with tho storv of caves In the cellar
The "raves" were, once vaults In the
chapel, now half undermined and crum
bling at Its foundations.
fte-r- school the whole place swarms
with children. Boys plav ball and a few
of the hardier stage games In the ruined
chapel
After 5 o'clock neighborhood people
come Into the grave vard and sit on Brave
nones under th trees There old "J.V.'k
ers " whose ancestors are scatter! ar.mit
the ard, gather and swap varn about
ghosts, and the age of the graveyard,
and the legends that grow there.
"Hill Fralev lived here for IS years "
said one man from his place on a redlin
ing headstone. Thr Fraley home was in
a house built against the old chapel. Hut
Bill couldn't last." he went on. He dld
last year and we alwa.es wonder.-d how
he hung on so Ions"
Tho old cemet-rv Is still owned b the
Philadelphia Cemeterv Company but It
Is said the city nr.av take it over for a

Railroads Report Big De

Anxious to Avoid Quartei
Cent a Mile Raise.
Since the railroads announced thnt 'ift
er October 1 there will be an Incie.iM
from 2 to 2U cents a mile in the rates
to be charged for mileage books theic
has been a big demand for existing books
on tho Pennsylvania and Beading Itml
roads from traveling salesmen and others
anxious to get in their supplies before
the Increase becomes effective. Agents
generally are reporting an exceptional
i;un on the books now In use. While
the schedule of new rates has alreadv
been filed at Washington, they have not
yet been approved by the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
Tho Reading Railway will Inaugurate a
new feature In connection with Its in
terchangeable mileage books nfter Oc
tober 1. Heretofore these books have
been good only for use on certain lines
In the East. The term "Interchangeable"
was appparently a misnomer, since there
rmii only jortain railway systems, aside
from the Reading, on which they would
be accepted, t'nder the new arrangement
thev will lw accepted for fare on virtually
all lines cast of Chicago.
For the regulation 2" mileage book,
good only on the system which issues It,
the new rate will be 22 5 for 10na miles.
The new rate fur the books with Inter
changeable features will be J25. with a
1 ehat of 12 50 when the book cover shall
be turned back to the eompanv . The re.

J
Residents Say Smoke and
Engines Would Ruin Mal
vern Avenue Homes.
Want Road Electrified.
ItesltlentB of Ovcrhrook are making n
decided stand against the Pennsylvania
nnllronil, which purposes the building
of largo freight yaids In that suburb
and the laying of a new load which
will bo used for fi eight transportation
fiom Glcnloch nnd 1'razer to tho Penn
sylvania Jlnllrond wharves at tho foot
ol Washington avenue, via Overbrook
and rc'd .-ittrct. Th-j nay tho load ns
row planned will ruin the handsome
i evidential district.
The railroad was granted a franchise
by the city of Philadelphia for the
carrying out of this plan In 100".. This
c&plics In 1215. Since tho company has
not begun tho work it would bo Im
possible to complete It before the time
limit expires, nnd therefore tho com
pany has applied for nn extension on
the peitnlt. The citizens of Overbrook.
represented In the Overhmok Associa
tion and the Overbrook Club, have m.tdi
such a vlgotous protest that tho City
Council has Informed tho ralhoad that
It will have to coma to some undti
stnnding with the citizens of that lo
cality befoto tho pcimlt will bo ex
tended. That pait of the Pennsylvania Kall
load's pioject which Is most objectionable
to residents of Ocerbiook is tho fact
that the new In-comlng lino will run to
the proposed ft eight yard along Mai-c-rn
nvenue, a handsomo residential dis
trict, which would be ruined by the.
smoko of the engines that would con
stantly be passing nlong tho line. The
freight yard will not be electrified, ac
cording to the plans piojected by tho
company, nnd so would ruin, the tc.sl-di-nts
say, tho oxtenslve reslilontnl de
velopments which arc- being can led on
between O vet brook nnd Wynnclield.
NOT TO KLKCTRIFY YARDS
In refeirlng to this point, John J
Coylo, president of tho OverVook Asso
ciation, said that the city of Philadel
phia uould lose from $100,000 to 1130.000
annually In taes nlono thiough the
depreciation in value, of rinl estate in
that neighborhood, which would prob
ably be at least So pet cent. Ho believes
that the- company's claim that It would
be Impossible to electrify a freight yard
of Bucii magnitude ns theirs Is to be Is
tintiue. for ho says that not only tho
members of the Overbrook Committee,
but also representatives of the City
Council, hao visited tho electrified yards
of other citle3 and are convinced that
tho proposition could not only be hnndled
huie, hut that It could bo profitably
managed.
ISut inther than electrlllcd lines nnd
fn-lght iuds, the people of Overbrook
would have the inllioad extend their
Pirsom spur lino connecting the Wash
llngtop fctttct wharves with Newtown
.iuaie, via Fei nn nod, to Olenloch nnd
Frazer. cutting out tho Overbrook nnd
d street cards. This, they claim, could
hu done at vufctlv smaller expense nnd
at n saving of considerable mlloage, nnd
Incidentally leaving the fashionable resi
dential flections of Overbrook undisturbed.
The railroad's plan ns It how stands Is
to extend the 5Jd ftieet Mu da to Over
brook, cvcntuillc laying 100 tracks for
this purpose. These lines would pa.3
untleriientli the Main Line passenger
tracks at Malvern uwime, and continue
out tb' t , . in- v . .ic.-i-idc- une
toward th" Newtown Square and Fernwo id
liriuil). no; joining thnt load, however,
but tuinin- s.nith anil -n i.i,ip- directly
to filenloch nnd Frazer. Tho only tun
nellng which would he dono would bo on
that part of Malvern aenuo which lies
between the Muin Line und the Blind
Asylum. There would bo no means of
crossing the Pennsylvania lines between
Wd kluct and K'th.
CONUUMNS PI.AN OP p. R. R.
ii commenting on tho situation this
morning, John J. Cole fcald: "Wo feel
that the Pennsylvania Railroad has been
granted gi enter concessions by her na
tive State and cit than any other rail
road in the world, and that In return for
these advantage it has not onlj fulled
to show Its appieclallon. but has shower
ed faors on other cities and States to
the exclusion of Philadelphia and Penn
sylvania It has elected a inagnitlcont
terminal in New Yoik and has electil
fled its lines entering that city , but not
onl it fuses to do as much for Philadel
phia but wishes, on the other hand, to
ruin one of the dtj s finest sub-jibs"
Ycsterda a committee of Overbrook's
citizens visited tho scene of the pro
posed changes. They are to report at
a meeting to be held to discuss ways
and means of bringing the railroad to
terms.
