 Origin of Masonry , 
 
 LlROM the commencement of the World we 
 may trace the foundation of Masonry. Ever 
 ^^ since symmetry began, and harmony display- 
 ed her charms, our order has had a being. 
 
 During many ages, and in many different coun- 
 tries, it has flourished. No art, no science preceded 
 it. In the dark periods of antiquity, when litera- 
 ture was in a low state, and the rude manners of our 
 forefathers withheld from them that knowledge we 
 now so amply share. Masonry diffused its influnce. 
 This science unveiled, arts arose, civilization took 
 place, and the progress of knowledge and philoso- 
 phy gradually dispelled the gloom of ignorance 
 and barbarism. Goverment being settled, authority 
 was given to laws, and the assemblies of the Frater- 
 nity acquired the patronage of the great and the 
 good, while the tenets of the profession diffused un- 
 bounded philanthropy. 
 
 Abstracted from the pure pleasures which arise 
 from friendship so wisely constituted as that which 
 subsist among Masons, and which is scarcely possi- 
 ble that any circumstance or occurrence can erase. 
 Masonry is a science confined to no particular coun- 
 try, but extends over the whole terrestrial globe. 
 Wherever the arts flourish, there it flourishes too.

St. Louis Guide. 
 
 Add to this, that by secret and inviolable signs, 
 carefully preserved among the fraternity it becomes 
 an universal language. Hence, many advantages 
 are gained. The distant Chinese, the wild Arab, 
 and the American savage, will embrace a brother 
 Briton, and know that besides the common ties of 
 humanity, there is still a stronger obligation to 
 induce him to kind and friendly offices. 
 
 The spirit of the fulminating priest will be tamed, 
 and a moral brother, though of a different persua- 
 sion, engage his esteem ; for mutual toleration in 
 religious opinions is one of the most distinguishing 
 and valuable characteristics of the craft. As all 
 religions teach morality, if a brother be found -to 
 act the part of a truly honest man, his private specu- 
 lative opinions are left to God and himself. Thus, 
 through influnce of Masonary, which is reconcilable 
 to the best policy, all those disputes which embitter 
 life and sour the tempers of men, are avoided; 
 while the common good, the general object, is zeal- 
 ously pursued. 
 
 From this view of our system, its utility must be 
 sufficiently obvious. The universal principles of 
 the Art unite, in one indissoluble bond of affection, 
 men of the most opposite tenets, of the most distant 
 countries, and of the most contradictory opinions; 
 so that in every nation a Mason may find a friend 
 and in every climate a home.* 
 
 Such is the nature of our institution, that, in the 
 lodge which is confined to no particular spot, union 
 is cemented by sincere attachment, and pleasure 
 reciprocally communicated in the cheerful observ-

 ance of every obliging office. Virtue, the grand 
 object in view, luminous as tiie meridian sun, shines 
 refulgent on the mind, enlivens the heart, and 
 heightens cool approbation into warm sympthy and 
 cordial .attention. Preston. 
 
 * On this principle, unfortunate captives in war, and bo 
 journers, accidentally cast on a dii^tant shore, are particular 
 objects of attention, and seldom fail to exper ence indulgence 
 from Masons; and it is very remarkable that there is not an 
 instance on record of a breach of fidelity, or of ingratitude, 
 where that indulgence has been liberally extended. 
 
 GOVERNMEI^TT OF THE FrITERNITY. 
 
 fllE mode of the government observed by the 
 [|^ fraternity will give the best idea of the nature 
 and design of the Masonic institution. 
 
 Three classes are established among Masons, under 
 different appellations. The priviliges of each class 
 are distinct; and particular means are adopted to 
 preserve these priviliges to the just and meritorious. 
 Honor and probity are recommendations to the first 
 class, in which the practice of virtue is enforced, 
 and the duties of morality are inculcated : while the

 Civilized Countries, stands 
 
 PRE-EMINENT FOR PRODUCING A 
 
 SOFT AND BEAUTIFUL COMPLEXION. 
 
 It is acknowledged by thousands of ladies who have 
 used it daily for many years to be the only preparation 
 that does not roughen the skin, burn, chap, or leave 
 black spots in the pores, or otlier discolorations 
 
 All conclude by saying : "It is the best preparation 
 for the skin I have ever used." "It is the only article 
 I can use without making my skiu smart and rough. ' ' 
 "After having tried every article, I consider your 
 Medicated Complexion Powder the best, and I cannot 
 do without it." Sold by all druggists and fancy goods 
 dealers, or mailed free upon receipt of jirice, 5U cts.

 mind is prepared for a regular progress in the prin- 
 ciples of knowledge and philosophy. Diligence, 
 assiduity, and application, are qualifications for the 
 second class, in which is given an accurate elucida- 
 tion of science, both in theory and practice. Here 
 human reason is cultivated by a due exertion of the 
 intellectual powers and faculties ; nice and difficult 
 theories are explained, new discoveries are pro- 
 duced and those already known beautifully em- 
 bellished . The Third Class is restricted to a selected 
 few, whom truth and fidelity have distinguished, 
 whom years and experence have improved, and 
 whom merit and abilities have entitled to prefer- 
 ment; with them the ancient landmark of the order 
 are preserved, and from them we learn the necessary 
 instructive lessons which dignify the art, and qualify 
 the professor to illustrate its excellence and utility. 
 
 Such is the established plan of the Masonic System. 
 By this judicious arrangement, true Friendship is 
 cultivated among different ranks of men, Hospitality 
 promoted, Industry rewarded, and Ingenuity en- 
 couraged. Preston.

 MARTIN'S SHORT-HAND 
 
 -AND— 
 
 618-620 Olive St., ST. LOU S, MO. 
 
 ESTABLISHED, MARCH, 1876. 
 
 Instruction Psrsonally or by Mail. 
 
 TRIAL WEEK FREE. 
 
 This is the oldest Shorthand and Type- Writing 
 School in St. Louis It is the largest, having an at- 
 tendance equal to that of all the others combined 
 It is the only one making a specialty of shorthand 
 instruction, all others being Commercial Colleges 
 in which Shorthand is regarded and taught as a side 
 issue. It has a full corps of competent teachers, 
 each having his or her special department; and is 
 not conducted on the "Cheap John" basis adopted 
 by many similar schools. It is now, as for the past 
 ten years, under the management of Prof, R. Martin, 
 whose entire attention is devoted to maintaining, 
 and, if possible, increasing its efficiency. Its grad- 
 uates are noted for the rapidity and accuracy of 
 their work, and for their success in obtaining and 
 holding lucrative positions as Stenographers and 
 T^'pe- Writers. It is endorsed l:y the leading Steno- 
 graphers and business men of this and other cities, 
 who recommend it in preference to any other. 
 
 All instruction is given individually, not in class, 
 so that the pupil is advanced as rapidly as he de- 
 sires, and his capacity permits. Graduatas are as- 
 sisted to positions. 
 
 Descriptive circulars, containing information of 
 value to all intending students, free on application 
 to

 Has existed twenty- six years; three of which it 
 was a Masonic paper, and twenty-three of which it 
 has been a Masonic periodical. It now is in its 
 twenty- seventh year. During the list twelve years 
 the improvement of the Magazine has been con- 
 stant, and its motto still is Excelsior. It is pub- 
 lished monthly; is finely illustrated, and contains 
 many excellent Masonic and miscellaneous articles, 
 poems and stories, by able writers, and also an 
 Eastern Star, a Masonic Gleanings and an editorial 
 department. The design of the Magazine is to 
 specially interest Freemasons, their mothers, sisters, 
 wives and daughters. The subscription price is 
 $3.00 per year, in advance.

 EDITED BY JOHN R. WILLIAMS. 
 
 HISTORY. 
 
 ^fHE visitor to St. Louis sets foot in no city of 
 recent establishment. The Great West may 
 be new, but of the important cities of the 
 country St. Louis is one of the oldest. Philadel- 
 phia was founded only eighty years before, and 
 Baltimore only thirty, and at the time of the first 
 settlement in St. Louis, the sites of the other rep- 
 resentative cities of the west, Cincinnati, Louisville 
 and Chicago, were still slumbering in unbroken 
 forest. 
 
 The first white men who ever saw the spot on 
 which the city now stands were a party of French- 
 men, headed by Marquette and Joliet, who in two 
 canoes floated down the Mississippi river early in 
 July, 1673. This was the first exploration of the 
 great river, though the Spaniard, De Soto, marching 
 overland through the wilderness from Florida, had 
 discovered it in 1541. In a few years after Mar- 
 quette's voyage down the Mississippi, the French 
 made settlements at several points along its banks. 
 Kaskaskia, the oldest and most important of these 
 settlements, sixty miles below St. Louis, was founded 
 about 1685, nearly at the same time with Philadel- 
 phia. Cahokia was settled a few years later. New 
 Orleans began its growth in 1718. Thus while the

 English settlements in America were limited to small 
 strips along the Atlantic coast, the French, coming 
 first by way of Canada and afterward New Orleans, 
 had established settlements in the heart of the con- 
 tinent and in the name of their king lay claim to. 
 the whole country west of the Alleghenies. Of all 
 European nations the French seemed best to har- 
 monize with the Indian race. They made the red 
 men their companions and in the dusky maidens of 
 the forest not infrequently found wives. "While the 
 children of the English settler east of the Alle- 
 ghenies trembled at the name of the Pequod or 
 Mohawk, the Frenchman a thousand miles farther 
 in the wilderness slept at ease in same wigwam 
 with the red warrior, or shared with him the same 
 venison. 
 
 Pierre Laclede Liquest, commonly called La- 
 clede, began the building of the first house in St. 
 Louis, on the 15th of February, 1764. He had pre- 
 viously visited the place and selected it as the most 
 advantageous point on the west bank of the river from 
 which to carry on the fur trade. He brought with 
 him a colony of thirty. The first building erected 
 were on the block at Main and Walnut streets on 
 which now stands Barnum's hotel. Several circum- 
 stances conspired to give the place a healthy and 
 substantial growth from the first. Important among 
 these was the fact that the territory east of the 
 Mississippi had been ceded to Great Britain in 1763- 
 The French were patriotic, and not liking the idea 
 of becoming English subjects, moved to the west 
 side of the river, thinking thus to continue their 
 allegiance to the king of France.

 By a secret treaty made in 1762, the country west 
 of the Mississippi had, however, been transferred 
 to Spain. In a few months the new village numbered 
 sixty inhabitants. The French settlers were left to 
 their own government till 1770 when a representa- 
 tive of the Spanish government assumed authority. 
 The records and documents prior to 1770 were in 
 the French language; thereafter the Spanish was 
 the official language till 1804, when the country 
 west of the Mississippi, then, known as Louisiana, 
 became part of the United States. In 1766 the 
 number of inhabitants was probably not less than 
 five hundred. Thereafter the population for 
 several years increased slowly . Some of the wealthy 
 inhabitants east of the river made the place their 
 home after the passage of the ordinance of 1787 
 prohibiting slavery in Illinois. The Revolutionary 
 war of the Atlantic Colonies caused not a ripple of 
 disturbance in St. Louis. In 1780 there was an 
 Indian attack in which a few citizens at work in the 
 fields near the present Fair Grounds were killed, 
 and that year was thereafter known as L'annee du 
 coup (the year of the attack.) L'annee des grandes 
 eaux (the year of the great flood) was 1785. 1787 
 was Dannee des dix bateaux (the year of the ten 
 boats. These ten boats were armed and equipped 
 at New Orleans, and ascended the Mississippi to 
 clear the river of a large band of robbers and pirates 
 who then had their headquarters at Grand Tower, 
 and levied heavy tribute on passing commerce. 
 The scarcity of bread stuffs in early times gave the 
 place the name of Pain Courts while its neighbor, 
 Carondelet, was not infrequently known under 
 the title of Vide Poche, or empty pocket. The

 houses of the old French town were built on what 
 are now known as Main and Second streets. The 
 river front was then a lime stone bluff, ascended by 
 only two roads, one at Market and the other at 
 Morgan street. At Fourth and Walnut was a stone 
 fort garrisoned by a company of soldiers, half 
 French and half Spanish, and defended by eight or 
 ten cannon, which the Spaniards took with them on 
 their evacuation of the country after its cession to 
 the United States. 
 
 In 1801 Louisiana was ceded by Spain back to 
 France, though the latter country made no attempt 
 to take actual possession. In 1803 Napoleon sold 
 it to the United States, and March 10, 1884, the 
 formal transfer at St. Louis was made. There was 
 little demonstration or show of interest on the part 
 of the inhabitants, though as the one ensign was 
 lowered from the flag staff, and the stars and stripes 
 mounted in its place, Charles Gratiot is said to have 
 called for three cheers, while Delassus, the old 
 Spanish commandant, wept. The population at 
 that time was nearly one thousand, and almost 
 altogether French and Spanish . In 1809 the number 
 of the inhabitants was about twelve hundred, among 
 whom were few Americans, and these mostly 
 attached to the government service. Two years 
 later the population had increased two hundred. 
 A traveler of that period writes, "It bids fair to 
 become second to New Orleans in importance on 
 this river," though at the same time it was observed 
 that New Madrid was a more attractive spot to the 
 emigration which had begun to floAv in from the 
 eastward. Washington Irving who visited the 
 place in 1810 says the population ' 'was more motley

 than at Mackinaw. Here was to be seen about the 
 river banks, the hectoring, extravagant boatmen of 
 the Mississippi with the gay, grimacing, singing, 
 good humored Canadian voyageurs. Vagrant Indians 
 of various tribes loitered about the streets. Now 
 and then a stark Kentucky hunter in leathern hunt- 
 ing dress, with rifle on shoulder and knife in belt, 
 strode along. Here and there were new brick 
 houses and shops, just set up by bustling, driving 
 and eager men of traffic from the Atlantic states, 
 while on the other hand the old French mansions 
 with open casements still retained the easy indolent 
 air of the original colonists ; and now and then the 
 scraping of a fiddle, a strain of ancient French song, 
 or the sound of billiard balls showed that the happy 
 Gallic turns for gayety and amusement still lingered 
 about the place." 
 
 A post office was established in 1804. The first 
 newspaper was printed in 1808, and in 1816 the 
 first bank incorporated. St. Louis was incorporated 
 as a town in 1809, and in 1822 received its first city 
 charter. In 1826 the present names were given to 
 the streets. General Lafayette visited the city in 
 1825, and a splendid ball was given in his honor at 
 the Mansion House on the northeast corner of 
 Third and Market streets. In the summer of 1836, 
 Daniel Webster was the city's guest, and was feasted 
 at a great barbecue in Lucas grove near the present 
 Twelfth and Olive streets. The cholera beginning 
 in 1848, swept away one- sixth of the native popula- 
 tion. The great fire of 1849 destroyed one-third of 
 the city and nearly the whole of its steam boat 
 interests* The building of the Pacific railway, the

 first railroad west of the river, was commenced in 
 1851, and of the Ohio & Mississippi, the first railroad 
 constructed on the east side, in 1852. 
 
 The city began to grow steadily with the advent 
 of steamboat transportation. The navigation of the 
 river, especially up stream, had previously been 
 dangerous and difllcult. The voyage by flat and 
 keel boat from Pittsburgh to St. Louis was a matter 
 of three month's time, and from New Orleans 
 much longer. The keel boat passenger fare from 
 New Orleans to St. Louis was about one hundred 
 and twenty-five dollars, and freight was paid for at 
 the rate of three dollars and a half per hundred 
 pounds. When steamboats began running these 
 charges Were reduced to one- fifth. The first steam- 
 boat to reach St. Louis was the Zebulon M. Pike. 
 The date was August 2, 1817.

 Mound" was situated east of Broadway iieai' Mound 
 street. It was called by the French La Orange de 
 Terre (earth-barn). It was about thirty-five feet in 
 heigt and one hundred and fifty in length. It was 
 cut down and carted away in 1869 to form a railroad 
 embankment. 
 
 LOCAL NAMES. 
 
 Cote Brilliante is the name of a district four 
 miles northwest of the Court House through which 
 Easton Avenue (or St. Charles Rock Road) runs as 
 the principal thorouhfare. Carondelet is the south- 
 ern part of the city, six miles below the Court House. 
 It had formerly an independent city goverment and 
 was consolidated with St. Louis in 1870. It is the 
 seat of large iron manufacturing interests. Baden 
 is six miles north of the city on the Bellefontaine 
 Road. Lowel is near the Water Tower. Compton 
 Hill is the elevated portion of the city west of La- 
 fayette Park, and two miles and a half southwest of 
 the Court House, and is a choice residence section. 
 French town adjoins the French market less than a 
 mile south of the Court House. Butchertown is 
 north of Easton Avenue a few blocks west of Grand 
 Avenue and abounds in slaughter houses. 
 
 Kerry Patch was the name given a district 
 between Seventeenth and Twentieth streets and 
 Mullanphy and Biddle, settled about 1842 by Irish 
 emigrants. This part of the city was then commons 
 without street lines and the shanties were sprinkled 
 about the patch promiscuously, all the occupants 
 being squatters. The name still hangs to that 
 section of the city. "Clabber Alley" runs north

 and south from Franklin avenue to Bicldle street 
 between Sixth and Seventh. It has many tenemet 
 houses and a dense population of various colors and 
 nationalities, and with "Wild Cat Chute" is one of 
 the poorest quarters of the city. The latter place 
 is an alley running north and south between Seventh 
 and Eighth streets, and from Carr to Biddle, filled 
 with tenements and peopled by a low class of negroes. 
 
 THE CITY'S AREA. 
 
 More than sixty-two square miles are embraced 
 within the city limits of St. Louis, or nearly forty 
 thousand acres. The length from north to south is 
 seventeen miles, and six and five-eighths miles 
 from east to west. It has a river front of eighteen 
 and one-half miles. The wharf or levee is paved 
 for three and one-half miles. 
 
 THE BRIDGE. 
 
 The great steel bridge which spans the Missis- 
 sippi from Third street and Washington avenue is 
 one of the chief features of interest about the city, 
 and should be observed carefully as an object that 
 has excited curiosity among scientific people both 
 in this country and in Europe. To the traveler from 
 the east a ride across it is his first item of acquaint- 
 ance with the city. It is not, however, from the 
 railway car that it should be seen and studied. 
 From the Levee at about the foot of Olive street the 
 structure best presents itselfto the eye. Here it can 
 be seen as a whole, and from this point its beauty, 
 strength and vastness are better comprehended. 
 The roadway at the top should also be visited. On

 and there is no better place from which the city 
 itself can be studied. 
 
 It was proposed to bridge the Mississippi at St. 
 Louis as early as 1839, and the project was revived 
 in 1848, 1853 and 1855. The company which built 
 the bridge was organized in 1867, and from that 
 time the work was pushed till its completion. The 
 construction of the piers was commenced in 1868 
 and finished in 1872. The piers rest on the bed- 
 rock of the river. The west abutment is 112 feet 
 high from its base, the west pier 172 feet, the east 
 pier 197 feet and the east abutment 192 feet. At 
 ordinary stage of the river one hundred feet in 
 height of the east pier is below the surface of the 
 water. The piers were built in caissons and sunk 
 through the sand to t e rock at the bottom of the 
 river. Beneath were chambers of compressed air in 
 which a large number of workmen were employed. 
 The pressure of the air in the air-chamber of the 
 east pier reached sixty- five pounds to the square 
 inch, or four and one-third times the normal pres- 
 sure. The effect upon the workmen was very severe . 
 Over one hundred men were violently attacked by 
 cramps and chills, and thirteen died from this cause. 
 The arches are made of steel tubes. The spans of 
 the side arches are 502 feet in length, and the central 
 span 520 feet. 
 
 There are 2,393 tons of steel in the structure, and 
 3,156 tons of wrought iron. It is estimated that if 
 the roadway above should be packed with people, 
 and the railway tracks below covered from end to

 would be taxed less than one-sixth of its capacity. 
 The length of the bridge proper is 2,046 feet, and 
 including the approaches, 6,220 feet, or nearly one 
 and one-fifth miles. The total cost was about ten 
 millions of dollars. It was opened to travel May 
 28, 1874, its construction having taken seven years. 
 The fare for foot passengers is five cents. 
 
 From the bridge a tunnel under the city, nearly

 It follows Washington avenue to Seventh street, 
 thence curves to Eighth and Locust streets, and 
 then follows Eighth street past the Post Office

 Altogether there are eighteen parks and squares 
 belonging to the city and dedicated to the public use. 
 
 FOREST PARK. 
 
 This is the largest of the city parks, and con- 
 tains 1,372 acres. It lies directly west of the centre 
 of the city, four miles from the Court House, front- 
 ing one mile on King's Highway. The act author- 
 izing its establishment was passed by the legislature 
 in 1874. The land comprising it was condemned 
 and purchased at a cost of $79G,965. Eleven 
 hundred acres were natural forest. The formal 
 opening occurred June 25, 1876, on which occasion 
 the bronze statue of Edward Bates was unveiled. 
 The river Des Peres, a small stream, runs through 
 the eastern part. It is a favorite resort for drives 
 and picnic parties. A statue of Frank P. Blair was 
 added to its attractions in 1885. The Laclede 
 avenue street railway from Fourth and Market 
 streets runs directly to the park, and it is also 
 accessible by Wabash trains from the Union depot. 
 
 LAFAYETTE PARK. 
 
 Lafayette park is one of the oldest parks in the 
 city, and nature and art have combined to make it 
 one of the handsomest in the country. It is thirty 
 acres in extent, and is one and a half miles south- 
 west of the Court House between Mississippi 
 and Missouri and Park and Lafayette avenues. It 
 is in an elevated portion of the city, the height of 
 the mound in the park above the city directrix at 
 the river being 138 feet The ground comprising 
 the park was formerly part of the old St. Louis 
 commons, and was reserved for park purposes in 
 the bill authorizing the sale of the commons in 
 1835. Tne park was dedicated and established in 
 1851, but little was done toward the adornment 
 of the grounds till 1863. Since that time the im- 
 provement has been rapid. Handsome walks, trees, 
 grottoes, rustic bridges, fountains and flowers now 
 make the place attractive. Here is a lake with boats

 and water fowl. From a handsome music stand con- 
 certs are regularly given in the summer. The bronze 
 statue of Thomas H. Benton was cast at Munich from 
 a design by Harriet Hosmer, and was unveiled by 
 Jessie Benton Fremont, Benton's daughter, amid 
 imposing ceremonies May 27, 1868. Its cost was 
 thirty-six thousand dollars. The inscription "There 
 is the East; there is India," is taken from a speech 
 made at St. Louis in 1849 in favor of a railway to 
 the Pacific. There is also in the park a copy of 
 Houdon's statue of Washington. By reason of its 
 easy access, its location in a built up portion of the 
 city, and its attractions, this park is probably a 
 place of more frequent resort than any other of the 
 public pleasure grounds of the city. The blue cars 
 of the Union Depot line from Fourth and Pine 
 streets and the Lafayette avenue cars running south 
 on Fourth street, are the best means of access. 
 
 SCHNAIDER'S GARDEN. 
 
 Schnaider's Garden is situated on Chouteau Ave. 
 corner of Mississppi Ave., within two blocks of La- 
 fayette Park. This is one of the oldest parks in the 
 city, having been established by Mr. Joseph Schnai- 
 der as early as 1869, and is now the favorite resort 
 for the gay and fashionable people of the city, and 
 a deli ght and wonder to visitors. Over one thous- 
 and gas jets of varigated colors and arranged in 
 beautiful shapes and fantastic designs, illuminate the 
 grounds. Good music is always in attendance after- 
 noons and evenings, and refreshments are served. 
 TOWER GROVE PARK. 
 
 Tower Grove Park is on Grand Avenue, extend- 
 ing west to King's Highway, and between Magnolia 
 Avenue and Arsenal street, three miles southwest

 of the Court House, and is one of the chief attrac- 
 tions to the city. It contains 277 acres. Its estab- 
 lishment is due to the munificence of Henry Shaw, 
 owner of Shaw's Garden, who in 1868 presented, 
 under certain conditions the land embraced in the 
 park, to the city. One of these conditions was that 
 three hundred and sixty thousand dollars should be 
 devoted by the city to the improvement of the 
 ground as a public park. In 1870 the park was 
 opened. Up to 1875 nearly half a million of dollars 
 had been expended. The result is one of the most 
 beautiful and attractive places of resort to be found 
 in the country. The grounds have been arranged 
 with much taste, and abound in indigenous and 
 foreign shade trees, shrubs and flowers. Two chief 
 features of interest are bronze statues of Shake- 
 speare and Humboldt, both cast in Germany and 
 costing together nearly one hundred thousand dol- 
 lars. These were both gifts of Henry Shaw to the 
 city. On the pedestal on which stands the Shake- 
 speare statue are finely executed has reliefs of 
 Shakespearian characters. The Humboldt statue 
 represents the great naturalist at the age of thirty. 
 On the sides of the granite pedestal are medallion 
 views of Mount Chimborazo, which Humboldt was 
 the first to ascend, and of the valley of the Amazon, 
 and a portrait of Mr. Shaw. These statues were 
 placed in the park in 1878. Shaw's Garden adjoins 
 the western part of the park. There is music every 
 Sunday afternoon during the summer. The Union 
 Depot Line of cars from Fourth and Pine streets 
 run to the park, and it can also be reached by the 
 People's Railway running south on Fourth street,

 and the Missouri Railway (Market Street Line) from 
 Fourtli and Market. 
 
 SHAW'S GARDEN. 
 
 Though private property, Shaw's Garden (or the 
 Missouri Botanical Garden) is one of the best known 
 and most frequented points of interest about St. 
 Louis. It is on Tower Grove avenue between 
 Shaw and Magnolia avenues, three and three- 
 quarters miles southwest of the Court House, and 
 lies next to the western part of Tower Grove Park. 
 The grounds are fifty acres in extent and form one 
 of the finest places of the kind in the country. 
 Every known variety of tree, plant and flower are 
 here found. The residence of the owner, Henry 
 Shaw, adjoinii the Garden. He is an Englishman 
 by birth, has resided in St. Louis since 1819, and as 
 a citizen of St. Louis has been most open-handed 
 and liberal in his benefactions. The grounds are 
 open to the public without charge on week days. 
 Take Union Depot Line of cars from Fourth and 
 Pine streets, fare five cents. By this route a walk 
 across Tower Grove Park is necessary before reach- 
 ing the grounds. From terminus of People's Rail- 
 way line of cars running south on Fourth street, a 
 hack line, fare twenty- five cents, runs to the Garden. 
 
 BENTON PARK. 
 
 Is three miles from the Court House in the 
 southern part of the city. It contains fourteen acres . 
 The site is well adapted by nature for park purposes. 
 Its attractive walks and shades make it a place of 
 pleasant resort for the residents of the vicinity, by

 the old city cemetery from which the bodies were 
 removed in 1865, the park being established the 
 following year. South St. Louis cars from Sixth 
 and Market streets. 
 
 CARONDELET PARK. 
 
 Carondelet park is in Carondelet on Ninth 
 street between Kansas and Loughborough avenues. 
 It was established by Act of the State Legislature 
 in 1874, by which two hundred thousand dollars 
 was appropriated for its purchase and improve- 
 ment. South St. Louis cars from Sixth and Market 
 streets, or the Iron Mountain railway trains from 
 Fourth and Chouteau avenue. 
 
 CARR SQUARE, 
 
 Between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets and 
 Wash and Carr, embraces more than two acres. 
 The site was presented to the city by Judge William 
 C. Carr in 1842 on condition that it should always 
 be used as a public square. It covers a piece of 
 depressed ground which was for many years used 
 as a receptacle for refuse, but which was afterwanl 
 filled in and improved. Cable cars from Sixth and 
 Locust streets. 
 
 EXCHANGE SQUARE, 
 
 On the river at Front and Warren Streets was 
 presented to the city in 1816 to be used as a com- 
 mons forever. Its location and surroundings have 
 made it of little value for park purposes, and it lies 
 unimproved and unattractive.

 GAMBLE PLACE. 
 
 Is the smallest piece of ground used for public 
 park purposes in the city. It is little more than an 
 acre in extent, and was opened as a park in 1875 at 
 the expense of adjacent property owners, though it is 
 now maintained by the city. It is between Gamble 
 and Dickson streets, and Garrison and Glasgow 
 avenues. This was formerly the site of a reservoir 
 built in 1867 to temporarily supply the city with 
 water, while the old Benton street reservoir was 
 being cleaned. Franklin avenue cars. 
 
 GRAVOIS PARK. 
 
 In the southwest part of the city between Pontiac

 and Pine streets. 
 
 HYDE PARK. 
 
 This is an attractive pleasure ground with flowers, 
 fountains and trees, much frequented by residents 
 of the northern part of the city, and situated between 
 Salisbury street and Bremen avenue, and Twelfth

 LYON PARK. 
 
 The ten acres included in this park formerly 
 belonged to the United States Arsenal grounds, and 
 were granted to the city by Act of Congress in 1869 
 on condition that a monument be erected to Gen. 
 Nathaniel Lyon who was in command of the Arsenal 
 at the time of the commencement of the War of the

 O'FALLON PARK. 
 
 This park commemorates the name of Col. John 
 O' Fa) Ion, a public spirited and much respected 
 citizen who died in 1865. It has a commanding 
 position covering the slope of the bluff overlooking 
 the river, the natural situation being, perhaps the 
 finest of any of the city parks. Here was the 
 O' Fallon residence. There is an oiiginal growth 
 of forest trees which had been carefully preserved 
 by the former owner. The park became the prop- 
 erty of the city in 1875. It contains 159 acres. It 
 is three and three- fourths miles north of the Court 
 House, a short distance south of Bellefontaine Ceme- 
 tery, and is reached by the Broadway cars going 
 north, and the Baden extension from their terminus. 
 
 ST. LOUIS PLACE. 
 
 This is a long narrow strip of ground, fifteen 
 acres in extent, Eighteenth street between Benton 
 and Hebert. Much of the park is in a hollow, but 
 it is well improved with walks, trees and flowers. 
 The site was given to the city for a pleasure ground 
 in 1848. Immediately south of the park was the 
 location of the old reservoir used previous to the 
 construction of the present water works system.

 was purchased by the city in 1840, at a cost of twenty- 
 five thousand dollars, "to be used as a public square

 Plan of the City- 
 
 The city is laid off on a simple and regular plan. 
 The east and west streets in the old central part 
 were given the names of trees, as for instance, Chest- 
 nut, Walnut, Olive, Locust, Elm and Myrtle. 
 Afterward as new streets were opened, some of 
 the early French pioneers were commemorated in 
 the appellations of some of the thorough- fares as 
 Chouteau avenue, Gratiot street and Cerre street. 
 The north and south streets parallel with the river, 
 except in the western part of the city, are designated 
 by numbers instead of names, as Second street. 
 Third street and Fourth streets. The city blocks 
 are not uniform in size, but on an average sixteen 
 blocks make a mile. One hundred house numbers 
 are reckoned to the block, though there are few 
 blocks in which they approach that figure ; the most 
 do not exceed forty. In the east and west streets the 
 numbers begin at the river. Second Street is 200, 
 Third street is 300 and so on. In the north and 
 south streets the numbers run from Market street. 
 Walnut street, one block south of Market, is 100

 both. On Fourth street are the Casino, the Planters 
 House, Globe- Democrat office. Hurst's Hotel and 
 Everitt House. On Broadway are the Olympic

 fashionable a shopping street as Fourth, Fifth and 
 Olive, it is lined for two miles with retail stores and 
 business places. At Leffingwell avenue (2,800 
 Easton avenue branches off to the northwest, and 
 on this street the business houses are continued. 
 
 Jefferson avenue is one of the leading north and 
 south streets. It is 2,600 west, about a mile and a 
 half west of the Court House, and crosses the rail- 
 road tracks in Mill Creek valley over a bridge of 
 handsome construction. On this street are the

 adorned by elegant mansions, handsome churches, 
 and other costly buildings. A fine bridge across 
 the Mill Creek valley is now in course of construc- 
 tion, and when completed the northern and southern 
 portions will be joined in one great highway. In

 rather the characteristics of a private park.

 which have smooth asphalt pavements, to Grand 
 avenue. From north Grand avenue the Fair 
 Grounds can be reached, and by way of Florissant 
 avenue, O' Fallon Park and Belief ontaine and Cal- 
 vary cemeteries. Page avenue is a favorite drive 
 west from Grand avenue to King's Highway, four 
 miles west of the Court House, and thence through 
 Forest Park. Tower Grove Park should be taken in 
 in the southwest part of the city. There is no drive 
 in the city more pleasant and attractive than through 
 this park. Return from Tower Grove Park by

 Olive street, and is one hundred and seventy-seven 
 feet in depth. The cornice is ninety- six feet, and 
 the apex of the dome one hundred and eighty- four 
 feet from the sidewalk. It is built of granite quar-

 CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. 
 
 This building in which the Merchant's Exchange 
 .transacts business is on Third street between Pine 
 and Chestnut, occupying the greater part of the 
 block. Its construction was begun in July, 1873, 
 and it was completed in December, 1875. It is 
 built of Warrensburg sandstone in the renaissance 
 order of architecture, and its total cost, including 
 the site, was one million, eight hundred thousand 
 dollars. It has a frontage of two hundred and 
 thirty-five feet by a depth of two hundred and eighty- 
 seven. The grand staircase leading from the base- 
 ment to the hall cost twenty-five thousand dollars. 
 The Exchange Hall is one of the most spacious and 
 splendid rooms in the country. It is two hundred 
 and thirty -five feet in length, by ninety-eight in 
 breadth, with a height of sixty-nine feet. The 
 decoration of the ceiling is in the Venetian school 
 of the sixteenth century, and deserves to be care- 
 fully studied. In this hall met the Democratic 
 National Convention of 1876, which nominated 
 Samuel J. Tilden for the presidency, and on that 
 occasion the floor was occupied by five thousand 
 two hundred chairs, and contained at one time over 
 ten thousand people. The Merchant's Exchange is 
 an organization of St Louis merchants and business 
 men in every branch of trade and comprises between 
 three and four thousand members.

 COTTON EXCHANGE. 
 
 The Cotton Exchange building is a large iron 
 and brick structure on the southwest corner of Main 
 and Walnut streets, completed in 1882, and is used 
 by members of the Cotton Exchange. St. Louis is 
 one of the leading cotton markets of the United 
 States. 
 
 REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE. 
 
 The Real Estate Exchange has a building on 
 Seventh street between Market and Chestnut. The 
 real estate agents of the city here display lists of 
 property for sale or rent, and auction sales of real 
 estate are here often made. 
 
 MECHANICS EXCHANGE. 
 
 The mechanics of St. Louis have a large and 
 strong organization, and their Exchange is on the 
 west side of Seventh street between Market and 
 Chestnut. 
 
 THE COURT HOUSE. 
 
 The Court House occupies the block bounded by 
 Broadway and Fourth, Market and Chestnut streets. 
 This square of ground was selected in 1823, and was 
 then described as situated "on the hill." From a 
 much earlier period the ground had been the site of 
 the whipping-post where the sheriff laid the "lashes 
 on well, without fear or favor," according to his 
 sworn duty till that means of punishment was 
 abolished. The construction of the building began 
 in 1852, and it was not completed till 1862, ten 
 years afterward. It is of the Grecian- Doric order 
 of architecture, and is built in the form of a Greek

 cross. The dome is especially symmetrical and 
 beautiful. Its summit is one hundred and ninety- 
 eight feet above the street. There is a tradition 
 that from the dome a person with a strong glass can 
 survey an area of more than three hundred square 
 miles, extending beyond Kirkwood on the west, 
 Carondelet on the south, up to Alton on the north, 
 and to the east far out on the Illinois prairies, but 
 the usual observer will find his vision limited to a 
 much smaller range by the cloud of smoke which 
 generally hangs over the east part of the city. The 
 four paintings on the interior panels of the dome 
 are by Wiemar, an artist of merit, and represent 
 the discovery of the Mississippi by De Soto, the 
 Landing of Laclede at the foot of Market Street in 
 1764, the Indian attack of 1780, and a western land- 
 scape and buffalo chase. 
 
 Only the civil courts here hold their sessions. 
 Besides the five divisions of the Circuit Court, there 
 are the St. Louis Court of Appeals and Probate Court. 
 The Law Library is also here, and the offices of the 
 Circuit Clerk, Assessor, Collector, Recorder and 
 Sheriff. The central office of the fire alarm depart- 
 ment is also in this building. Admission may be 
 had to the dome. 
 
 THE FOUR COURTS. 
 
 In this building, on Clark avenue between 
 Eleventh and Twelfth streets, the business of the 
 Criminal courts is conducted. It is built of cream 
 colored Joliet stone, cost seven hundred and fifty- 
 five thousand dollars, and was finished and occupied 
 in 1871. Three courts hold their sessions in this 
 building, the Criminal Court, the Court of Criminal

 MISSOURI SCHOOL OF MIDWIFERY, 
 
 2020 N. NINTH STREET, 
 
 Is now justly regarded as one of the most benefi- 
 cent institutions of the city, and has well earned its 
 position in the first rank of the Medical Colleges of 
 Missouri, having graduated the great majority of 
 those now practicing midwifery in this city and state, 
 and many who have taken up the practice in other 
 states. The importance of such an institution and 
 of such an instruction as is there received, practi- 
 cally as well as theorectically, can be best appreci- 
 ated by those who have witnessed the suffering, 
 long ill health and sometimes even death, resulting 
 from lack of skill and knowledge on the part of 
 those professing this difficult and delicate branch 
 of medical science. In connection with the college 
 is a lying-in-hospital so that students have the oppor- 
 tunity of obtaining practical as well as theoretical 
 instruction at the bedside. This is the most import- 
 ant point to be considered as every one knows that 
 a person may have a thorough theoretical knowledge 
 of anything, and at the same time be practically 
 ignorant of the whole business. It must not be 
 infered from this however that the utmost privacy 
 cannot be secured when desired. On the contrary 
 ladies expecting to be confined can here secure the 
 most comfortable quarters, the best medical treat- 
 ment and care, with all the privacy their own homes 
 would afford. The spring course begins the first 
 Monday of March and the fall term begins the first 
 Monday of September each year, and intending 
 students should at once communicate with Mrs. Dr. 
 S. S. Schierick at College building 2020 N. Ninth, 
 a physician of unsurpassed skill and experience, 
 whose knowledge of the healing art is equalled by 
 but few.

 THE CITY HALL. 
 
 The city government is centered in the City 
 Hall on Eleventh street between Market and Chest- 
 nut. Here the Mayor, Comptroller, Treasurer, 
 Auditor, Register, Recorder of Votes, Counsellor, 
 Health Commissioner, Assessor and Collector of 
 Water Rates, Inspector of Weights and Measures, 
 Commissioner of Buildings and Supplies, Park 
 Commissioner, Wharf Commissioner, Sewer Com- 
 missioner, Street Commissioner, and other public 
 officials have their offices. The city legislative 
 departments also meet here. It is a large, plain

 persons convicted of minor crimes, vagrancy and 
 various offences, and an opportunity is given the 
 prisoners to serve the city during their period of 
 confinement. No partiality is shown to sex or 
 color, but all are usefully employed. The common 
 occupation of the men is breaking rock at the 
 quarry on the work-house grounds, and while bend- 
 ing over their unhappy fate at the rock pile, sentries 
 armed with rifles and shot guns, pace to and fro to 
 check any sudden aspirations the prisoners might

 reservoir is on Compton Hill at Grand and Lafayette 
 avenues, nearly three miles southwest of the Court 
 House, on one of the highest points in the city, the 
 reservoir having an elevation of one hundred and 
 seventy- six feet above the city directrix. At Bis- 
 sell's Point there are tour settling reservoirs, each 
 six hundred feet long, two hundred and seventy 
 feet wide, and fourteen deep, into which the water 
 is pumped from the river, by three engines, two of 
 which have a capacity of eighteen million gallons 
 each per day, and the other twenty-four million 
 gallons. Each of the four reservoirs holds about 
 eighteen million gallons. While one is being filled, 
 in another the water is settling, from a third one it 
 is being drawn off, while the fourth is being cleaned 
 and made ready to be filled in its turn. The water 
 settles in twenty-four hours. After the water is 
 settled another set of engines forces it through the 
 mains to the storage reservoirs on Compton Hill 
 whence it is distributed over the city The Comp- 
 ton Hill reservoir is eight hundred feet long, two 
 hundred and fifty feet wide, and twenty-four feet 
 deep, and holds sixty million gallons. The supply 
 main between the pumping station and the Comp- 
 ton Hill reservoir is laid along Grand avenue and 
 consists of eighteen thousand feet of thirty-six 
 inch pipe, and seven thousand feet of thirty inch 
 pipe, in all, nearly five miles. At various points 
 lines of twenty inch pipe connect the Grand avenue 
 main with the distributing system. 
 
 THE WATER TOWER. 
 
 To relieve the strain on the engines at the pump- 
 ing station of the Water Works, is a stand pipe at

 Fourteenth street and Grand avenue. This stand 
 pipe is five feet in diameter, and one hundred and 
 sixty feet in height. It is enclosed in a brick shaft 
 in the interior of which is a spiral stair case leading 
 to an observatory at the top, from which a magni- 
 ficent view of the city and adjoining country can be 
 had. A new stand pipe nearer the river was also 
 erected in 1885. The Benton- Belief ontaine street 
 car line runs to the Water Tower. 
 
 MERCANTILE LIBRARY. 
 
 The Mercantile Library is at the corner of Broad- 
 way and Locust streets. It was founded in 1846. 
 Tke present building was completed and occupied 
 in 1864, and at the time of building was regarded 
 as one of the handsomest edifices in the city. A 
 new building on the present site is now in contem- 
 plation. The library contains upwards of sixty- five 
 thousand volumes. A large reading room is well 
 supplied with the periodical literature of the day. 
 There are also in the rooms a number of paintings, 
 curiosities and works of art. There are two statues 
 in marble, (Enone and Beatrice Cenci, by Harriet 
 Hosmer, and marble busts of Burns and Scott. 
 The library is open to visitors, and strangers in the 
 city, on introduction of members, receive a card 
 entitling them to the privileges of the library and 
 reading room one month.

 St. Louis Guide. 
 
 1869 the library came under the entire control of 
 the Board of Public Schools. Rapid progress has 
 been made in the accumulation of books, and the 
 library now is very full and complete, numbering 
 about sixty thousand volumes. The charges for 
 membership are very low, and the reading room is 
 free to all persons. Those not members are also 
 allowed to take books for reading in the rooms with- 
 out charge. The library is open on Sunday. 
 
 THE MISSOURI HISTORICAL SOCIETY. 
 
 Has a library of about five thousand volumes, a 
 large number of archaelogical specimens, and many 
 historical relics and curiosities. Meets in Court 
 House. 
 
 LAW LIBRARY.

 Court House. It is an extensive collection of works 
 of legal learning numbering over ten thousand 
 volumes, and is much patronized by the lawyers of 
 the city to whom its membership is exclusively 
 confined. Any member of the legal profession out" 
 side of St. Louis city and county has the privilege 
 of using the books. 
 
 YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOOCI- 
 ATION.

 MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS. 
 
 Occupies a fine structure on Lucas place and 
 Nineteenth street, built by Wayman Crow in com- 
 memoration of his son who died in England in 
 1878, and conveyed by deed to Washington Univer- 
 sity. The building was dedicated in 1881. There 
 is a fine collection of paintings and other works of 
 art. A large and handsome lecture room is known 
 as Memorial Hall. Admission twenty-five cents. 
 
 FIRE DEPARTMENT. 
 
 The Fire Department headquarters are at No. 6 
 Engine House on Seventh street between Pine and 
 Olive. It requires tweny-five steam engines, six 
 hook and ladder apparatus, about one hundred and 
 seventy horses, and more than two hundred and 
 fifty men to fight the fires that are continually 
 breaking out. These appliances are stationed at 
 different localities, so as to afford the best protection 
 to property. The number of fire alarms each year 
 is nearly six hundred. The department has reached 
 a high degree of efliciency. Great promptness is 
 shown in answering an alarm, and the horses rush- 
 ing at full gallop along the street drawing after 
 them the ponderous engines from which fly the 
 smoke and sparks, is a sight at which the ' 'oldest 
 citizen" shows an interest. 
 
 JEFFERSON BARRACKS. 
 
 This is a United States military post, occupied 
 by a detachment of the regular army, and situated 
 on the river nine miles below the city. It is acces- 
 sible by the Iron Mountain Railroad trains, and is a 
 
 I; ii - ' y

 pleasant place to visit in summer. The site rises 
 gradually from the river, and commands a fine 
 view of the Mississippi. The construction of the 
 buildings began in 1826. Before the Mexican war 
 this place was the great rendezvous for the troops 
 in the West, and from this point distributions of 
 men and munitions of war were made to frontier 
 garrisons. Many important military and exploring 
 expeditions were here fitted out, and many officers 
 who afterward became distinguished commanders 
 in both the Union and Confederate armies, were at 
 times stationed here. The grounds contain seven- 
 teen hundred and two acres. On one portion is a 
 national cemetery, kept with great care, and a 
 beautiful resting place for the dead. The remains 
 of over ten thousand soldiers lie here, chiefly those 
 who died during the War of the Rebellion. The 
 parade ground is adorned with trees and flowers. 
 The stone houses, built more than half a century 
 ago, are in an excellent state of preservation. 
 
 GYMNASIUM. 
 
 On St. Charles street between Eighth and Ninth 
 streets. The institution has many members and is 
 well supplied with all the appliances for physical 
 development. 
 
 THE ARMORY. 
 
 Is a large brick building, at Seventeenth and 
 Pine streets, two hundred feet front by one hundred 
 and nine feet in depth, built in 1882, and occupied 
 by the militia organizations of the city. A large 
 arena, seventy-four by one hundred and thirty-five 
 feet, is used for calvary and artillery drill.

 NATATORIUM. 
 
 At the corner of Nineteenth and Fine streets is 
 the Natatorium or Swimming school, much patron- 
 ized during the hot summer months, by those whose 
 business engagements or pecuniary resources do not 
 allow a trip to seaside resorts. 
 
 MARKETS. 
 
 The leading market is Union Market, between 
 Broadway, Sixth street, Lucas avenue and Morgan 
 street. On Saturdays especially it is a busy place, 
 and thousands here obtain their supplies for the 
 Sunday dinner. It occupies the whole block. 
 
 Biddle Market is on Thirteenth street between 
 Biddle and O' Fallon. Sturgeon Market is at Broad- 
 way and North Market streets. 
 
 City. Market, or as it is better known, the Round 
 Top Market, is at Broadway and Biddle streets. It 
 is called the "Round Top" Market from the style 
 of the architecture of the roof. 
 
 The French Maiket is on Convent street at the 
 junction of Broadway and Fourth street. This 
 part of the city has retained, perhaps, the marks 
 and characteristics of the early French population, 
 more closely than any other, and hence the name. 
 
 CEMETERIES. 
 
 Belief ontaine Cemetery, on North Broadway, 
 four miles and a half from the Court House, is well 
 worth a visit. It occupies the slope and summit of 
 the river bluff (here a gentle rise of ground), is 
 more thickly wooded than is usual with cemeteries, 
 and a more beautiful resting place for the dead

 could not well be selected. It was opened in 
 1850; but many bodies were reinterred herefrom 
 the older graveyards. There are many splendid 
 monuments. On the stones maybe read the names 
 of the men, merchants, lawyers, physicians and 
 business men, who, added to the City's growth and 
 greatness. " After life's fitful fever they sleep 
 well." The grounds comprise about four hundred 
 acres. Take Broadway cars going north, and the 
 extension cars (fare 10 cents) from the terminus of 
 Broadway line. 
 
 Calvary Cemetery is the Catholic burying ground. 
 It adjoins Belief ontaine Cemetery on the north, and 
 is reached by same lines of cars. Interments in this 
 cemetery began in 1854. The grounds are attractive, 
 and like Bellefontaine, it is the resting place of 
 many distinguished dead. There are a number of 
 smaller cemeteries in the vicinity of the city. 
 
 THEATRES. 
 
 The Grand Opera House is on Market street, 
 between Broadway and Sixth street. On its site 
 was the old Varieties Theatre, built in 1851. In 
 1873 it became known as De Bar's Opera House, 
 and afterward by its present name. The old struc- 
 ture was torn away and a nevi;^ building erected in 
 1881. This was destroyed by fire in December, 
 1884, and the present structure erected in 1885. 
 
 The Olympic Theatre is on Broadway, between 
 Walnut and Elm street, opposite the Southern Ho- 
 tel. The old theatre building, on this site, was 
 erected in 1866, and first used for variety perform- 
 ances. It was opened for the legitimate drama in

 Here formerly stood the old Unitarian church 
 which was purchased and transformed into a thea-

 The People's Theatre is on the south- WRSt cor- 
 ner of Walnut and Sixth streets, and was built in 
 1881. 
 
 The Standard Theatre is at Seventh and Walnut

 The Pickwick is a Theatre on Washington ave- 
 nue, west of Jefferson avenue, in which occasional 
 performances are held. It is the head quarters for 
 society amateur theatrial entertainments. 
 
 Uhrig's Cave, on the south-west corner of Jef- 
 ferson and Washington avenues, is a summer gar- 
 den theatre. The performances are usually the 
 
 best of comic opera, and the attendance is from 
 the best classes. 
 
 RAIL ROAD DEPOTS. 
 
 Union Depot, where nearly all passenger trains 
 
 arrive and depart, is at Eleventh and Poplar streets, 
 
 nearly three-quarters of a mile from the Court 
 
 House, and is reached by the Union Depot line of 
 
 cars from Fourth and Pine streets. 
 
 The Main Street Depot is on Main street, north 
 
 of Washington avenue, at west end of the bridge 
 
 All passenger trains going to or coming from the 
 
 Union Depot, stop here. It is often a convenient 
 
 place to stop for persons without baggage who have 
 
 business in this part of the city; but passengers 
 
 should generally go to the Union Depot, where all 
 
 baggage is delivered and where better means of

 communication with different parts of the city can 
 be found. On taking the train at Main street five 
 minutes can be allowed from the starting time at 
 Union Depot, but no ticket can be purchased here 
 or baggage checked. 
 
 Fourth and Chouteau avenue is the starting 
 place for local accommodation trains on the Iron 
 Mountain road for Carondelet and Jefferson Bar- 
 racks. Take cars running south on Fourth street. 
 
 A few local accommodation trains on the Wabash, 
 St. Louis & Pacific railway leave from Vine street 
 and the Levee. 
 
 The St. Louis, Cable & Western Depot is on 
 brand Avenue west of Olive Street. This is a 
 narrow gauge railroad extending to Florissant in 
 St. Louis county.

 from the city to the east side of the river. The 
 passenger fare is five cents. The ferry landings are 
 at the foot of North Market street, Carr street 
 Poplar street, Chouteau avenue, Anna street and 
 Davis street.

 PARADE OF THE FLAMBEAU BATTALION. 
 
 Ful/ Description and Programme of the PARADE OF 
 THE GREAT FLAMBEAU BATTALION, which ta/ces 
 place during the Knights Templar Triennial Con- 
 clave at St. Louis. Two Hundred and Fifty Torch- 
 Bearers in Line — Grand Display of Fire -Works on 
 the Streets. 
 
 The organization of a Flambeau Battalion in St. 
 Louis was the result of a set of curious circumstances, 
 and the magnificent manner in which its organiza- 
 tion is being perfected must be very gratifying to 
 those to whom its inception should be credited. 
 
 When the management of the St. Louis Trades 
 Display Association were casting about them last 
 year for something new and novel to tickle the 
 insatiable maw of the great public that annually 
 visits St. Louis during the fall festivities, some 
 wild and reckless enthusiast suggested the bringing 
 of a Flambeau Club to St. Louis, and making it the 
 closing climax of the greatest exhibition ever 
 attempted by the Trades Display Association. 
 
 The suggestion "caught on," and overtures were 
 at once made to the then prominent clubs of the 
 country, the Atchison and Topeka Flambeau Clubs. 
 The latter was finally billed for the event. 
 
 The energy and generosity of the friends of the 
 movement kept pace with its popularity, and a large 
 amount of money was contributed to carry it out in a 
 magnificent manner. All of the athletic societies

 in the city were invited to take part, and to add a 
 greater feature to the affair, the Atchison Flambeau 
 Club was also invited to participate. 
 
 Wednesday, October 8, 1885, during Fair week, 
 the parade took place; and it was a paralyzer, in 
 fact it was the tinest display of fire- works ever 
 made in this countiy, the rivalry between Atchison 
 and Topeka being so great that the former club, 
 having as it did the first parade to make, made the 
 pace so fast that on the following night, when the 
 Topeka Club paraded with the Trades Display 
 Association, although doing a fine piece of work, 
 they appeared to make a complete failure. 
 
 After the success of the first display of the 
 Athletic Parade Association it was but natural that 
 a permanent organization be suggested, and at a 
 meeting held at the Elk's club room, soon after, 
 this idea was carried into eSect. On October 22, 
 application was made to the Circuit Court for a 
 decree of incorporation of the Athletic Parade 
 Association and St. Louis Flambeau Battalion, and 
 the same was granted, and on November Gth, the 
 Secretary of State issued the certificate for same. 
 
 In organizing the Flambeau Battalion, it was 
 thought absolutely necessary to have six companies 
 in it to carry out the plan of work expected from it, 
 and the same were designated, from the duties 
 required of them, the Pike Company, the Flambeau 
 Company, the Roman Candle Company, the Mortar 
 Battery, the Rocket Company and the Rifle Com- 
 pany. 
 
 The uniform adopted for the various companies 
 will make a beautiful display. 
 
 •*

 The uniform of the Pike Company will be green 
 granite-gray coats and light gray pants, with red 
 trimmings, top boots aad white helmets. This 
 company will carry long pikes, and will lead the 
 advance of the Flambeau Battalion, clearing the 
 way. The men are the pride of Capt. Mitchell, all 
 of them being over six feet in height. 
 
 The second company is the Flambeau, and is 
 uniformed in white duck linen suits and white hel- 
 mets with old-gold belt, and is assigned to duty on 
 each side of the street, the full length of the pro- 
 cession, marching thirty feet apart. This company ^ 
 handles the flambeaux and sends sheets of chemical 
 flame in any direction fifty or sixty feet, making a 
 grand but harmless display. The company require 
 two wagons to carry their extra flambeaux during 
 the arade. 
 
 The next company — the Roman Candle — is als^ 
 dressed in white linen duck suits,with white helmets 
 and blue belts. Their position in line of march is 
 alternated with the Flambeau Company, on each 
 side of the street, and extending the length of the 
 entire parade. Their work is the firing of Koman 
 candles, torpedoes and other light fire-works and 
 they also have two ammunition wagons in the parade 
 carrying material for their use. 
 
 The Mortar Battery which comes next is uni- 
 formed in white linen duck suits with red belts and 
 white helmets, and their work ia fast and furious 
 from the start to the come-in. The battery is com- 
 posed of four mortars, and they occupy the center 
 of the parade each mortar being manned by eight 
 men and in command of an officer. From the picture 
 of the mortar wagons, it will be seen how careful 
 
 ;^ « 
 
 232 
 
St. Louis Guide. 
 
 the management of the battalion have been in 
 making them strong and safe, and no fears need be 
 entertained of a repetition of the explosions of last 
 year. 
 
 The Rocket Company is Company E, and like 
 the other three companies of the fire section, is 
 dressed in white linen duck suits, white helmets, 
 and red, white and red belts. The company is 
 divided into four platoons, which take positions 
 about one hundred feet apart and fire rockets from 
 their peculiar -shaped funnels incessantly during 
 the display. It requires four rocket wagons to 
 carry the necessary rockets for an ordinary proces- 
 sion, each wagon having a capacity of ten dozen. 
 These wagons are very peculiar in construction, and 
 are modeled on the plan of a tubular boiler, each 
 having a separate tube, and making accidents from 
 explosion in moving impossible. 
 
 The Rifle Company closes the procession and is 
 faced rearward, keeping back the surging crowd and 
 firing continuous volleys of musketry. They look 
 like veterans, their uniforms being dark blue blouse 
 and light blue pants, with lighter blue trimmings 
 and white. 
 
 Some idea can be formed of the grand spectacle 
 that is in store when this great organization appears 
 on our streets, covering, as it will, over three blocks, 
 and having more than 250 men in its ranks, besides 
 about 120 attendants drawing the twelve wagons and 
 serving the ammunition to the men. 
 
 The noise is so great from the bursting of bombs, 
 hissing of rockets and firing of muskets that it is 
 impossible to convey orders other than by bugle.

 and the Major of the battalion will give his com- 
 mands by bugle note, and the buglers of each 
 company will repeat the same down the line. 
 
 By special request of the committee having in 
 charge the Knights Templar Conclave, the Flam- 
 beau Battalion has consented to appear during the 
 triennial week ; probably the evening of September 
 24 will be decided on as the night of the Flam- 
 beau parade.
