Funeral Ceremonies Described.

BY WILLIAM E. CURTIS.Special Correspondence of The Star and tbe Chicago

Kecord-HeraHl.BOSTON, Mass., August 16. 1907.

Prof. Thomas Day Seymour of Yale University,who knows all about such things,has discovered that Hades is the nameof a person and not of a place, but thatrirftOQ nnt rAlipvo oinnorc fiv.m rAcnAneihiiHtv..WW .V..V »V " VI o 4IV..4

nor abolish the doctrine of punishmentafter death. It Is simply an Interestingand important point in classical literature,just like the discovery many years agothat Eldorado was the name of a man andnot a gold mining district. The latter termmeans "The "Gilded Man" and was originallyapplied by a Spanish explorer to an

imaginary king who lived in an. imaginarycountry near the sources of the Orinocoriver and had an imaginary palace whosewalls were decorated with silver andwhose furniture was made of gold. Helived in such luxury and extravagancethat, according to the tale, his servantsbathed him in cocoanut oil every morningand sprinkled his body with gold dust, sothat he sparkled in the sun. For that hewas called Eldorado.the gild«d.and Intime his name was applied to a mysteriousbut unknown country of fabulous wealth.

.rrof. Seymour knows more about Hadesthan Sir Walter Raleigh knew of Eldorado,and doesn't intend to go there; and hegives us much of his knowledge in a charm-ing book he has recently written. It iscalled "Ivife in the Homeric Age." Prof.Seymour says that Hades was. and I supposehe still is, the son of Chronos and abrother of Zeus and Poseidon, who dividedamong themselves tli-3 kingdom of theirfather. The "realm of murky darkness"was tw> share of Hades and he is supposedto be running the government there still.Only once in the Iliad of Homer does

Hadas act as a person, however. Whenthe gods are assembled for conflict on theTrojan plain and Poseidon shakes the earthand the mountains Hades leaps from histhrone with a cry of fear that the earthmay be torn open and expose his "dolorousmansions to the peering day." He is "implacableand unyielding," and therefore themost hateful of all the gods to mortal man.

The Realm of Hades.Prof. Seymour says that the realm of

Hades, generally speaking, lies beneath theearth, like the mediaeval hell, yet Odysseuson his visit to that country does not descendthrough a cavern, but sails to theiana or snauos rrom tne island or Circein a single day. It lies on tho borders ofOceanus, near the country of the Cimmerianswho are wrapped in mist and cloudsand, on whom the sun never shines. Theriver which departing sou's must cross toreach Hades is called the Styx, but Its geographicalcourse is not indicated hy Homerin any way. Prof. Seymour has not beenable to find it at any place in New Knglandor elsewhere upon the earth. The ferryman,Charon, is not mentioned in the Odyssey,nor is the river Lethe. Hercules wassent to fetch his dog Cerb"rus, but Odysseuson his visit sees no gate nor dog, noreven Hades himself.How the realm of Hades fa lighted Homer

does not tell his readers. He dessribes itas a gloomy land and Odysseus, withoutdifficulty, recognizes his former acquaintnni^Rnlthftiich Via rtnt-s r>r»t nonotrata !»-» /-*

the Inmost recesses of the place, and it Isnot; clear how he got there. At the opening-of the last book of the Odyssey Hermesleads the souls of Penelope's slain suitors"Along the murky ways, past the gates ofthe sun. and the country of dreams to theasphodel plains where dwell the souls, theImages of the dead." Prof. Sjymour saysthat the opposition betwe?n these viewsconcerning the situation of the realm ofHades seems clear and scholars generallyhold to a different authorship of these differentpari* of the Odyssey poems, althoughsome would believe that by sailing to thefar west Odysseus was thought to find ahorizontal entrance to the inner part ofthe eartli.

"Murky Tartarus."At the beginning of the second day of the

battle or Troy. Zeus warns any of the godswhom he shall see aiding either Greeks or

Trojans that he will hurl them "into murkyTartarus, far away, where Is the deepestpit beneath the earth; where are the irongates and the bronze threshold, as far beneathHades as is heaven above the earth,"but Prof. Seymour declares that Homernowhere intimates that Tartarus Is a placeof suffering. Its inhabitants, the Titans,are not in chains, and the lack of breezescan hardly prove the temperature to be uncomfortable.He suggests that perhaps itwas a place to which undesirable gods weretransported in the Homeric age. just as undesirablecitizens were transported fromKngland to New Zealand or Australia acentury ago.Nor are the Isles of the men-

tloned In Homer. According to a familiarlater view. Prof. Seymour says, the soulof a dead man was not Immediately admittedto the realm of Hades, but wanderedIn loneliness on the confines of that placeuntil the body was either burned or buried.The soul of Patroclus appears by night toAchilles with the stature, eyes, voice andraiment of his dead friend and says:"Bury me at once. Let me pass the gratesof Hades."No guide seems to have been needed for

the journey to Hades. Just as no ferrymanIs required for the Styx; nor are ajiy particularrites of burial absolutely necessary.The ordinary modern care of the dead andthe laying of flowers upon the'r graves areprompted toy no conscious thought that theyare pleased toy the adorned eofHns or thefragrance of the flowers. Eplourus requiredthe usual funeral honors for himself andhis friends, Cicero tells us, although he do-nled the existence of the soul after death.Prof. Seymour suggests that many a successorof Eplcuru9 makes the same demandand expects a handsome monument.

Soul'e Existence After Death.The existence of a soul after death Is the

shadowy reflection or Imitation of man's lifeon earth, according to Homer. H'.s idea Isalmost as neutral as the Hebrews' Sheol.Even the voices of the dead are but echoesof their former selves, although Pindar describesthem as entertaining themselves withhorse races, gymnastic contest's, playingcheckers and twanging the lyre. Evidentlyin i-iiiuaj-a nine, i-ror. eeymour remnrus.ghosts hail gained much additional vigor.According to Homer the souls of the deadaro as unsubstantial as dreams. Death andsleep are twin brothers and the entrance tothe land of shades lies hard by the countryof drgfpns; but the ghosts In the main pursueoccupations in which they wereemployed while on the eaath. Kings re-

main kings and hunters follow tame andthe daughters of Oanaus were required tocarry water to continue the Irrigation operationson which they were engaged beforedeath. Odysseus recognizes his mother andother friends. Their faces and forms arenot changed. The shade of Herculvs wasfound feasting with the Immortal gods, althoughhe carried a bow and appearedready to shoot, while the ghost of themighty hunter Orion with a bronze club.doubtless only the shade of his former club.is still chasing the ghosts of the wildbeasts he slew upon the mountains beforene aiea.

If the ghosts of Tantalus. Sisyphus andTltyus are Included. Prof. Seymour says,dead men not only Buffer hunger and thirst,but also physical pain and perform physicallabor. Agamemnon's ghost was eagerto learn about hie son Orestes; Achilles inquiredconcerning his son Neoptolemus, andevidently had not heard of him from, anyof the newcomefs before the arrival ofOdysseus in Hades.Even this shadowy existence of the souls

of the dead was not conceived by theGreeks as lasting forever. Prof. Seymoursays; it ils not Immortality in the modernsense. Odysseus found In Hades no ghostolder than the second or third generationbefore him. That existence in Hades wasnot satisfactory to Achilles is shown by hisreply to Odysseus, who congratulates himon his honors in that state as a worthy sequenceto lils glori'ous life on earth: "Sp^aknot comfortably to me of death. O gloriousOdysseus! I should rather be upon thefield as the servant of another, of one whohad no land and lltt'.e property, than hethe king of all the dead."

No Punishment or Rewards.Prof. Seymour says that in general men

are neither punished rti Hades for their evildeeds done upon earth nor rewarded fortheir good deeds. Strictly speaking, Homerknows of no Instance of reward and of onlyone case of punishment after death. Sisyphusand Tanta'.us sufTer, but for nostated crime. Sisyphus, the old ruler ofCorinth, was doing in Hades just what liehad been doing in life, heaving great stonesup a hill, just as Orion continued his occupationof huntfng.While the spirits of men after death were

thought to lead such a shadowy existenceas is indicated for them in the Homericpoems, there was no need for cheering orpropitiating them in any way. They passed(from the regions of earin never more toreturn; they were helpless attd powerless.Once admitted tn the vMlms of n

soul is beyond the reach of friends andenemies on earth; it can receive no satisfaction;it can work neither weal nor woe.Upon leaving their old homes and the

graves of their' ancestors on the mainlandof Greece, and, in particular, on adoptingthe custom of burning the bodies of thedead, which would remove the possibility ofthe soul's return to its former habitation,the Greeks who migrated to Asia Minorleft behind them also their belief in the in|fluence over them of the spirits oif theirI Qnfflctnva Pllt hlo lo nnt »t'l> -'l"w..www>c< xvvii. una nut wuuuy aaLioiautory,for even If they left their old ghostsbehind them they could have gained newones !n the next generation. A Germanwriter calls attentfon to the large numberof haunted houses in England and the fewnessof these in America, but Prof. Seymourexplains that the New England colonistsdid not abandon their belief in ghostsand many an American garret Is still fullof them, which even cremation would notbani'sli. Even in so modern and practical aland as California are haunted houses forwhich no tenant can be found.

Sacrifices to the Dead.Dr. Seymour says twice in the poems of

Homer offerings are made -which bear aclose resemblance to sacrifices to the soulsof the dead, although they may be distin-guished from tliem. At the funeral pyreof Patrorlus, Achilles leaves jars of honeyagainst the bier on which the corpse islying, and when Odysseus goes to the realmof Hades to consult the seer of Teiresias,following the directions of Circe, he digsa small pit In the ground, a cubit square,and oours about it a libation for all thedead, first millc and honey, then sweet wineand water. After a prayer for the dead,including a vow that on his return to Ithacahe will sacrifice a farrow cow and burn apyre full of treasures, and in particularthat he will sacrifice a black ram to Teiresias.Odysseus cuts the throat of a ramand of a black ewe in such a manner thatfhfrir hlnnrl elm 11 flonr in»A *-u

Some process of preserving the body fromdecay must have been known and used bythe ancient Greeks, for the corpse ofAebilles was not committed to the flamesuntil the eighteenth day after his death;that of Hector was treated with despite byAchilles for eleven or twelve days, and isthen bewailed by the Trojans for nine daysbefore burial. The body of Patroclus iskept from decay by Thetis, who drops ambrosiaand red nectar through the nostrils.

Funeral Ceremonies.The use of black for mourning appears

but once in Homer. One princely militaryfuneral is described in detail.that of Patroclus.The chariots bearing the noblesand knights lead the way the Infantry fol-lows, in tne truest his comrades bear thebody of the dead covered with locks oflialr which they had cut off as a sign ofmourning. Achilles follows the corpse aschief mourner, bearing his friend's head,and when they reach the place appointed forthe fire he cuts ofT his own long, tawnyhair and places it in the hand of Patroclus.The pyre, is a hundred feet square. Thebody is laid upon it at the center, wrappedfrom head to foot in the fat of sheep andkine. The carcasses of beasts are laidon the outer part; jars of honey are leanedagainst the bier. Four horses, two petdogs and twelve young Trojans, taken*captive011 the last (lay of battle, are thenelaln. their bodies are laid on the outerpart ot the pyre, and, finally, the fire Isapplied.The funeral ceremonies of Achilles are not

reported in such detail as those of hisfriend, but he was mourned for seventeendays and nights, the muses themselves actingas the singing women, and his body wascovered with oil and honey and wrappedin raiment brought by his goddess mother.His ashes were placed In a go'den urnwith oil and unmixed wine, and with theremains of his friend', Patroclus. Over thi?urn a high mound was raised on a promontoryprojecting into the Hellespont.The killing of captives', horses and doss,

unlike the usages of some of the NorthAmerican Indians. Prof. Seymour thinks,was done In a spirit of vengeance, not toxurnisn aiimcuuiiH in wie nexi wona, i liemound was intended as a monument tolead coming generations to ask their fatherswho were burled there and thus keep aiivethe memory of the dead. Everybody, onseeing: the mound of Ajax, would ask whowas buried there, and then who was Ajax?Similarly, Prof. Seymour says, the Passoverservice was intended to remind the Israelitesto tell their children the story of therelease from captivity in Egypt.

ent leader of the district, Frank J. Goodwin,and said before he ha<f uttered halfa dozen sentences that Goodwin didn't lookgood to him."I thank you upon the behalf of Mr. Garveyfor this magnificent attendance," he

said. "It Is the grandest district turnout Iever saw. If there is any Goodwin manpresent I wish he would carry the news ofthis meeting back. It'll make him feelbad. I implore the young ladies present toassist In conveying the good news.

Makes Him Shiver.I consider them among the most valuabledistributers of nolltleal wlsilom (innri-

win Is a man with a marble heart and anIcy eye. Br-r-r-r.it makes me shiver tothink of that fellow, he's so cold. He's thelast man In the universe for the commonpeople to hail as a leader. You ask himquestions and he's too busy to reply."What you do for Garvey in defeatingthis man you do for me. Tammany Hallhas recognized Mr. Garvey. The Goodwinmen call me a McClellan man. I>et it go atthat. Tonight we are McClellan men.ifthey say so.and from now on, in fact weare anything to be on the other side of thefence from them. We're against Goodwinat any cost.'Now remember my words and hand it

to Goodwin in bunches of his own Ice.Freeze him out."Devery's speech was badly broken tipwith cheers and hurrahs. In fact it looked

at times as if he would have to discon-unue temporarily. liis appeal to the womenpresent made a distinct hit and Bill himselfgrinned at the furore the sally created.Then he tried to look severe, as if he meantit. He was the only speaker of the eveningand occupied but a few minutes with thetalk.
