FOR HUMAN ASHES.

Columbarian Erected by an Eastern
Cemetery tho First In the World.
Cremation has taken so firm a hold
upon the minds of the Pennsylvanians
that the directors of the Allegheny
Cemetery Company resolved, last Janu-
ary, to erect a columbarian upon the
company's property. This is built upon
the hillside and contains one hundred
inches or recesses for the reception of
urns. The material used is granite, and
the style of architecture followed is,
most appropriately, that of ancient
Greece. In describing the place the
Engineering Magazine says there are
five wide doors opening into as many
compartments. The central or main
entrance is that of the columbarium,
and on each side are two vaults. The
door opening into the columbarium is a
fine specimen of bronze open work,
through which complete view of the
interior may lie had. The main en-
trance is supported b. four massive pill
lars and adds much 20 the beauty of
the structure. The doors of the vaults
are of massive bronze, and each opens
into a compartment for the reception of
urns. In the interior, which is finished
In terra Gotta, are four tiers of recesses.
These are So constructed that a tablet
with an inscription or a plate glass
front may be placed in them, as the
owners may desire. In the uppermost
tier each space is separated from the
next by an ornamental pillar, upon
which rests the end of one of the arches
forming the roof, which is in the form
of dome, and is finished in panels and
arches of terra Gotta. The rays of the
sun entering the apartment are soft
ened by a stained sllylight. This is, l
believe, the only building in the world
dedicated solely to the reception of hui
man ashes. Since the times of ancient
Greece and Rome no other has been
erected for such purpose. Our Ger
man cousins are about to build one in
Berlin, but, SO far, this in Pennsylvania
stands alone.
