Which Witnessed Last
Burial in 1890.
HEEDLESS YOUTH PLAYS WHERE TEARS ONCE FELL
A graveyard that neighborhood enu
dron use as a playground, whore tomb
iitones arc bases for the "C!rnvoytml j
Nine," Is a lght which has shocked those
who walk or live atone Passyunk avenue
near 21st street. The graveyard Is the
old Philadelphia Cemetery, bounded bv
Passyunk and Snyder avenues and Hit
and 22d streets. Across the way re the
northernmost homes of the Glrnrd estate
Tho last funernl there was In 1S0O. but J
It might have been 40 years ago. to Judge '
from the ruin that covers the traci
Weeds grown waist hlRh and small trcs
and underbrush that have sprung up In
the 20 years' desolation hide the white
tombstones so elosclv that a casual glnnce
over tho 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
utones through th trees and all that Is
left of one carefully kept fenced ploti.
now hummocked and twisted and guarded
by strands of rusty Iron chain", strung
from pillars which stand anyway but
upright.
CHAPCL A nflNOUS PILE.
Two weather-worn posts with drooping
rates stand at the entrance on Passyunk
avenue. Back of them In the thick of
the weeds in a slanty ruin that looks more
like an old Spanish mission In southern
California than anytnlng extant toda.
This was the old receiving chapel, where
funerals brought up with the bodies and
ministers snld the last services.
It was built In ISIS, a fact glenned by
lndUEtrlously rubbing n cornerstone bet
In tho side. Then the chapel may hae
been a fine monument. Us bricks vor
covered thick with brown p'.uster and
there was stained sine In Its narrow-cut
windows. But today the plaster has
ehucked off In great patches and the
windows are crumbling, with their col
ored glass and sashes on the ground.
Back through the central arch of the
receiving chapel and ovr the weeds
growing you see more tombstones through
trre treei.
"GHOULS ' PLAY BASEBALL.
Walk through it and com to the base

"The Ghouls" i the most popular or
ganization In the ccmeterv, because none
of the other diamonds there have morn
than one tombstone apiece. "The Ghoul-' "

stand made of overturned headstones and

other diamonds All over tho fields ar
dotted with overturned tombstones and
tmnll monuments.
The open spaces are most sought by the
children, though when they are many and
the sun l bright the ruined chapel in tho
undei brush and trfes Is a popular rsort.
In twos or threes they hang hark if you
ask them to look Inside the chapel.
AFRAID OF GHOSTS.
"Pere's ghosts 'round here!" one ex
plained, standing doubtfully In the ta.l
gras with his foot on tho tombstone

The once genial ticket chopper nt one
of the West Philadelphia Matlons of the

i furrows in his ptow this morning as a
newly plowed field. Instead of his usual
1 theory "good morning" to all traelers,
he merely growled.
I "My best friends look -hideous," he
said. "I can't recognize more thnn one

A casual glance nt tho men surging
from the subway stations this morning
confirmed the statements of the ticket
chopper. All West Philadelphia seems to
need a shave. Soma of the men spent i
too much time over tne after-dinner
cigar, rushed out frantically at one min

barbershop blammed In their faces.
