LITTLE RESPECT FOR DEAD.
South American Countries Have Prim.
tive Burial Customs.

Havana's cemetery is typical of the
burying places of all Spanlsh-Ameri.
can countries. II consists of a wall
eight to ten feet thick, honeycombed
with inches for the reception of cof-
fms, and surrounding a plot OF land
which is never used for burial pur-
poses and is usually in neglected
condition. The cemetery is run by the
municipal authorities and the inches
are rented The payment required
upon the sealing of one of these holes
in the wall insures an undisturbed
resting place for its contents for three
or FIVE years from that time. accord
ing to the particular custom of the To-
caity. Then an annual rental must
be paid for a period of twenty-five
years, at the end of which time the
tenant gets a title in perpetuity. But
how few ever find a last resting place
in one of these inches is shown by the
fact that, despite the tremendous in
crease in population since it was built
two or three centuries ago, the Gene
terry has never been enlarged and
there are always plenty of vacancies.
Upon default of payment of the rental
the bones are raked out of the niche
The bones are placed in one corner of
the cemetery, and there, at least, they
lie undisturbed through the passing OF
years as the pile constantly grows
larger.
