TlBETAN DEAD NOT BURIED
Bones Are PuIverized and Then
Fed to the Vuitures.

To bury bodies in the earth is to
contaminate them, is the Tibetan view,
according to Rev. D. f. McGillicuddy
pastor of st. Stephens church, of
Worcester, Mass, who penetrated this
forbidden country in 1906.
Instead of burying their dead they
slice the flesh from all bodies and feed
it to the birds. After skiIlfully cut
ting away the flesh they pulverize the
bones and feed them to the vultures.
The temples used by these people
for centuries are still standing. In
front of many of them are stumps of
trees covered with butter, in which
devotees stick their offerings of coins.
Tibet is peopled by branch of the
Monaghan race. The 100000 or g.
100000 population are mixture of
Chinese and Tfbetans, as the races in
termarried. They believe in both poly
andry and polygamy.
It is the most extensive elevated
country in the world, containing 75O,-
GOO square miles, with an elevation
varying from 5000 to 1900 feet. Its
climate is principally bleak and cold,
although the summers in the southern
part are mild and pleasant.
The first white man to enter Lhasa,
the capital, was Sir Francis Young
husband, who fought his way there in
1904.
Dalai Lama. religious head of the
Buddhist faith, which is the national
religion, was so overcome by the fact
that infidels had trodden the streets OF
the forbidden city, that he fled the
country, and was for many years a
wanderer in northern China.
