WAYS OF GRAvEDIGGERs.
They Are Cheerful and Given 20 Pro-

Are Elderly Men.


Notwithstanding their somber call
ing, which is perpetual reminder of
the uncertainty of life, gravediggcrs,
like undertakers, are q cheerful lot
Of people, much given TO profess
sional joking and taking the cares OF
the world lightly on their shoulders,
The gravediggers are employed by
the superintendent of the various Gem
eteries, and are recruited from the
ranks of lnborers who are employed
from day to day.
At Greenwood cemetery regular
force of so gravediggers is constantly
employed, and when there are many
funerals extra men are taken or. The
gravediggers are paid 16 cents per hour
and sometimes work 10 hours a day,
Before the last hot wave there were
only eight interments per day on the
average, and when the hot wave set In
the average jumped up to 30 per day.
When there are no graves to be dug
the gravediggers fill in their spare
time moving the lawns in front of the
vaults. They sometimes sing as they
work. One of tho gatekeepers at
Greenwood cemetery is an old grave
digger, who dug graves for 40 years or
more. Then he became incapacitated by
rheumatism, and was pensioned OF, his
present occupation being sinecure.
The position Of a grave digger Is
sought after a good deal by the labor
ers, as IL means constant work The
gravediggers crack jokes as they pur-
sue their avocation, just as the grave
diggers in Hamlet" but their jokes
have no venom in them. Most of
them save their money and invest It in
small houses near the cemetery. Then
they bring their wives and children
out on summer afternoons for stroll
among the graves.
A number Of years ago the Green
wood gravediggers founded local as.
sembly of the knights of Labor, known
az the Yoricl1 Labor club. Its yearly
picnics were attended by all the choice
spirits in other trades unions. After
awhile the gravediggers in Calvary
cemetery formed a rival union, Then
a war of determination began. Each
union started in to cut rates, and

| About a year ago a movement wa

"It came about naturally, sir" n
said. "Sure, you know, IL no one eve

possible for a man ever to dig his ow
grave, If there was nobody else to di
it for him"
This gravedigger, as the above wi
indicate, is an Irishman. He is very Il
