BALTIMORE, MD. An 3(nuitatinn*B Argum^ut Disaster is to strength a stimulant, to weakness ruin. Thus disaster has classed Baltimore with the strong. It is responding forcefully to its stimulant. Before the great fire of February, 1904, organized civic interests were pressing a campaign of community promotion which placed it in rank with the most aggressive cities of America. Twenty months of gigantic effort concentrated upon recovery held in apparent check that program of civic accomplishment. In reality it marked birth of The New Baltimore. Gigantic effort has not collapsed with repair of the vast injury, but has gathered increasing force as the City's characteristic Twentieth Century gait. This civic spirit prompted the great celebration planned to mark the new epoch in its career. Most conspicuous expression of this new force and this new movement is Baltimore's avowed plan and purpose to "let the whole country and the whole world know what it has done and what it can do." This very fact in itself is attracting to the Chesapeake port those forceful elements which seek centers of the most aggressive enterprise and so contribute to make it a choice field of commercial and industrial opportunity. For projection of this publicity campaign is having a three-fold effect on Baltimore's new outreaching advance. 1. It is drawing outside trade and capital and popu- lation and business efficiency; 4 The New Baltimore. 2. It is multiplying the internal civic activity to which it is itself due, 3. It is awakening Baltimore to a larger self discovery. In preparing to "tell the world" it is marshalling before its own deeper appreciation an array of inspir- ing facts. The spirit of aggressive invitation is the invitation's foremost argument, giving more telling force to the many considerations which beckon the vigorous to "The Gateway of the South." For the enterprising, Baltimore is a place to make money. For the buyer, it is a place to save money. On top of great attainments, it offers greater pros- pects. In the biggest meaning of the phrase, it is a city with a future. Upon that distinctive future it has entered now. Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston are the vertebrae in the backbone of world wide American business. Of this Seaboard Four, Baltimore is first as fronting the great new South. It leads in publications devoted to the South's development. Its field and opportunity and prospect of big new growth is the greatest of the Four. It is the trade metropolis adjoining the political capital of the United States. It possesses the strategy factors to make it also the business capital. As a port it has the elements to make it foremost in America. The New Baltimore. 5 Already it ranks second in point of exports, following New York in its hitherto undisputed primacy. Significant of possibilities for the early future is the fact that while ten years before Baltimore was sixth in foreign trade, in 1900 it was third. In population it is sixth among American cities, but in imports fifth. It has the largest number of coastwise shipping entries on the Eastern Seaboard. Standing at the head of the largest bay on the Atlantic coast, its opportunities for harbor expansion are unlimited. The harbor admits ocean vessels that can enter any Atlantic port. The Government is engaged in deepening the inner channels. Great piers are utilizing the big outer harbor basins. Nearly twenty steamship lines ply between Baltimore and Trans-Atlantic points. Splendid railroad connections with the different States furnish the complementary reason for the importance of the Baltimore port. It is closer by rail to the great Western centers of commerce than any other on the Atlantic coast. Its distinctively Southern connections touch a bigger field than the distinctively Northern connections of the other cities of the Seaboard Four, and its bigger distinctive field has its greatest development still ahead. Most centrally placed, and with half of the seaboard field chiefly to itself, obviously it is more truly the Eastern center of direct lines of distance spreading over the United States. As a great seaport railway terminal its facilities for transfer between train and boat have recently been vastlv increased. 6 The New Baltimore. This improvement, moreover, has only well begun: great further projects are under way. Being latest, these facilities are best and most up-to- date. They have made freight handling costs most attrac- tively low. This attainment, and this progress and this future as a port and as a terminal is the basic factor in making Baltimore a great commercial, industrial and agricultural center, attractive to the merchant buyer, to the manufacturing site prospector, to the business home seeker, to the work hunter and the visitor. It is making Baltimore ' * the market of the country. ' ' With its magnificent transportation service over sea and land it is naturally one of the most advantageous wholesale points in the United States. It has attracted a great body of the most aggressive and enterprising traders of the world. They meet the buyer more than half way. They pay his railroad fare to Baltimore. For some years recently the Merchants and Manu- facturers' Association has been extending this substan- tially cordial "invitation" to wholesale customers. In arguing that "goods well bought are half sold," the Baltimore market admits no superior in point of price, or quality, or design, or novelty, or comprehen- siveness and full variety of stocks. The manufacturer finds directly at hand freight boats for his foreign trade and finely equipped railroad terminals for his domestic business; proximity to varied supplies of fuel, iron and raw materials, and the great advantage of "conservative labor." The City's civic organizations go to every proper length in facilitating his acquisition of site and his enjoyment of the greatest of conveniences. The New Baltimore. 7 Tax burdens have been lightened, and comprehensive corporate law revision is now planned as an incentive to Baltimore and Maryland industry. Abundant room with dock facilities are open to the manufacturer's choice. As the best meeting point for Cuban ore and Appalachain coal, a great steel industry has developed at the Baltimore harbor. Baltimore has been widely known as a great food supply center, with its great and numerous packing interests, but its full resources are only in part realized. In close touch with the greater bulk of American population, it is the metropolis of a bigger and better productive region than any other Eastern market. This region, with plenty of low priced land and a congenial climate, offers splendid opportunities, at the command of limited capital, for the scientific small farmer who understands modern ''intensive agricul- ture." The variety of products for which this region is well suited are remarkable in the way of fruit and vegetables, poultry, stock and hides and all manner of farm and dairy produce. The market advantage which local beef enjoys over Western storage meat has been a large element in making Baltimore conspicuous as both a stock and leather product center. The great fire has made Baltimore an up-to-date building exposition. In the burnt district, comprising much of the central office and business section, are concentrated numerous splendid specimens of the most recent architectural development. This is of special importance and interest to builders everywhere as giving concrete illustration of the use to which cement is being put in the erection of tall 8 The New Baltimore. and solid buildings entirely without dependence on heavy structural steel. As a Convention City, Baltimore holds a unique position. Practically a suburb of Baltimore, all that Washington offers belongs practically also to the former, and being several times as large, has the greater capacity for sheltering big gatherings. It gives visitors the advantage of a rich selection in the way of incidental trips, brief or longer excursions to many points of rest or interest on the Chesapeake, or to Philadelphia by the ship canal, nearby mountain runs, and the choice, as different inclinations in a gathering demand, of reaching either the warm South or cool North by short ocean or railroad rides. As a place of residence, combined with advantages in business, it offers the points of climate as satis- factory as the world affords and a pleasing and healthful topography. Baltimore is built on hilly land, and has free room for unlimited expansion over a charming and picturesque environment. Baltimore is a city that grows upon the stranger's favor with time. Enthusiasm supplants indifference when a month's familiarity supplements the partial knowledge of a hasty stop for a careless and undirected business visit. mUIinna for Prngr^Bs. By a positive popular vote at the May elections of 1905 the whole Baltimore public heartily endorsed the " campaign of progress" in authorizing loans aggre- gating $13,000,000 for great municipal improvements. One provided for $10,000,000 to be expended in the development of an extensive sewer and sewage dis- posal system, according to the best and latest plans worked out by modern civic engineering genius. These plans contemplate transmission of sewage to a cen- tral point outside the city limits, there to be treated The New Baltimore. 9 at a sewage disposal plant. The act authorizing the project prohibits the dumping of crude sewage in Chesapeake Bay or its branches. The vote made immediately available the first million of an estimated $3,000,000 involved in developing the greater system of parks and boulevards, under what is known as the Olmsted plan. Baltimore tax payers are not assessed for its park improvements, the Park Board's resources coming from a levy on receipts of the street railway company, this income being amply adequate to care for all future loans necessary to execute the whole magnificent scheme. The money is to be spent equally in the four quadrants into which Charles and Baltimore streets divide the city. Features of the project include a water front park along Spring Gardens, near upper Gwynn's Falls; play grounds and athletic fields in north and south Balti- more; extension of Patterson Park to the eastern city limits, and new squares in east and northeast Balti- more. The remaining $2,000,000 of the total is for opening, widening, extending and improving streets in a suburb, destined to become one of the foremost residence sec- tions, known as the " Annex." This $13,000,000 or more is additional to the great sum being applied to the provision of new docks and to the deepening of the harbor channels. Leaders in Baltimore's new "campaign of progress" have been its powerful and enterprising newspapers, like the Sun, American, News, Herald and World, its trade journals, including the Manufacturers Record and the Merchants and Manufacturers Journal, its business organizations, such as the Chamber of Com- merce, the Merchants and Manufacturers Association, the Travelers and Merchants Association and the Credit Men's Association, and certain conspicuous firmsj and corporations among the wholesale, manufacturing and transportation interests, . ItHttor's manual. Baltimore is of abundant and varied interest to the general visitor for its harbor, wharves, shipping and markets, its many and important historic associations, its old forts, its excursion opportunities, its notable parks, numerous green squares and places, and its superb boulevards, its world famous educational insti- tutions, its cathedral and churches, its produce, whole- sale and shopping districts, its canneries, mills, fac- tories, car shops and ship yards, its beautiful residence streets, its picturesque environs and its finely rebuilt business center. The nucleus of the city's growth was the early settlement about the harbor ''Basin," which is the amphfied head of the bay-like Patapsco river's north- west branch. The central zone of Baltimore's present development extends from the old harbor northwest- ward to Druid Hill Park, the business center about its lower part, the residential center a mile or so toward the hill. "Old Town" is sometimes used as the designation of the eastward of two hilly plateaus separated by the stream called Jones Falls, draining a wide, deep valley occupied by many factories. Broadway, a beautiful north and south boulevard, is prominent among the highways of the older eastern section. Now, the two principal streets of the city are Charles and Baltimore. Charles street runs due north, one square west of the Basin, and along the border of the westward plateau. Baltimore street runs east and west, three squares north of the Basin. From these the other streets are numbered east and west, or north and south, largely on the ideal plan of even hundreds to a block. The New Baltimore. 11 Two points of view give a quick general impression of Baltimore. One of the most interesting is from the elevation of Federal Hill Park, just south of the Basin, on the west side of the Branch. This affords a general panorama of the shipping, the busy harbor region and the tiers of wholesale and office buildings ranging northward up the slope. Another and more extensive view is from the top of the Washington Monument, 164 feet high, twelve squares from the Basin, on Charles street. The broad, varied and refreshing scene presented from an elevated hotel window or other lofty structure in this neighbor- hood inspires the thought: "This is certainly a nice place to live! " Several hours' walk, embracing points along and near the twenty squares on Charles street from the Basin to the Union depot will give a fairly intimate acquaint- ance with the nucleus of the representative business and residence sections. The disposition of the Court House, the Post Office and Government Building and the City Hall together on three blocks, one square north of Baltimore and one to three squares east of Charles street, is a neat example of "Group Plan" arrangement. Amidst them, on Calvert street, is Monument Square, containing the old and historic "Battle Monument," commemorating local engagements of 1814. The six or seven squares westward from the City Hall and the four or five southward to the Basin com- prise the main part of the office building and wholesale district, the office structures being concentrated more to the northward and the wholesale establishments more to the southward part of the solid tract, both conspicuously intermingling on Baltimore street. The retail shopping houses and department stores have their most pronounced development about the 12 The New Baltimore. northwestern corner of this business tract, Lexington, towards Eutaw and the Market Place, being daily crowded with the patrons of numerous dry goods con- cerns in that neighborhood. The intensely interesting produce region is that along and about Pratt street, eastward and westward from the Basin. Baltimore has been called the "gastronomic center of the universe." The great fire gave opportunity for the noteworthy project, whose execution will be finished by the spring or summer of 1906, to give Baltimore, "the country's market," the biggest and best wholesale and retail market in the world. For this purpose the Burnt Dis- trict Commission acquired the large tract just west of Jones Falls, between Baltimore and Lombard streets. The " Marsh Market Space," in full operation, will be one of the leading sights of Baltimore. Ten or more other market places dot the city. As much as anything about Baltimore, its food dis- tributing activities will give poetic atmosphere to recollections of the Chesapeake metropolis. Over the whole country it is recognized as the capital of the oyster industry, but perhaps even more distinctively will its excellent crab dishes, served in the various styles devised by Maryland's culinary art, finger in table reminiscences, along with native Maryland bis- cuits, and equally associated with the stirring notes of the State song and the half hour clamor of multitudi- nous church clocks in ear memories, will be the early morning cry of the darkey vendor vocally advertising his "live crab" wares, freshly dipped from the teem- ing waters of the warm bay. All these, coming back to mind, will revive scenes encountered while dodging through the congested traffic wagon lines of the pro- duce regions, such as the jam of small sailing craft loaded with huge, ripe melons from the neighboring The New Baltimore. 13 coasts, or the great banana steamers from the tropics, drawing their swarms of bargain hunting vendors and their rows of dusky urchins fishing out of the slip with long wires the over quickly ripened fruit that chance or Providence sends overboard for them. Turning attention from the down town business points of interest to the westward part of the walk, the first of five neighborhood groupings into which its outline may be classified, comprises the Young Men's Christian Association, the prominent Hotel Rennert and the former home of Johns Hopkins, now Royal Arcanum headquarters, on Saratoga street. Mulberry street, two squares beyond, has the Catholic Cathedral, and in its rear on Charles street the resi- dence of James Cardinal Gibbons, the highest Ameri- can dignitary of the Roman Catholic Church. The Enoch Pratt Free Library, headquarters of the city's public library system, with seven branch libraries, is a square and a half west on Mulberry. Mt. Vernon Place, three squares north on Charles, is a cross shaped park of charming scenic eflPect, with statuary, fountains, flower beds and terraced approaches about the monument, erected by the State of Maryland in 1815 to the memory of George Washington. The monument contains an exhibit and interior access to the lofty observation windows at the top. In the eastern wing of the park is an heroic statue of George Peabody, founder of the Peabody Institute, which occupies the southeast corner. Nearby is the tall and elegant Hotel Stafford. An educational and scientific group of structures is three squares west, on Howard street, comprising the buildings of Johns Hopkins University, also Baltimore headquarters of the United States Weather Bureau, the Maryland State Weather Service and the Maryland Geological Survey, and just south the City College, of the public school system. 14 The New Baltimore. Continuing out Charles street and passing the immense modern Hotel Belvedere, eight squares walk through the residence section brings the sightseer to Union Station and to the beautiful Baltimore and Ohio Mt. Royal Station, with its high tower, one square west. At these stations the visitor is in walking distance of two features which should be objects of any satis- factory survey of Baltimore, the Eutaw Place boule- vard and the famous Druid Hill Park, the one six squares southwest, the other about ten squares north- west, past the high Mt. Royal reservoir, with its broad view, and along Mt. Royal boulevard. A city rich in arboreal charm, Baltimore is noted for its many park-like "Places," its boulevards and its open, shady squares. Among these Eutaw Place, an exquisite vista of elongated parkway, with winding walks and statuary and fountains and flowers and arboreal art, flanked by elegant residences, is one of the finest in America. Druid Hill Park is an immense 700-acre tract of varied native forest upon diversified and hilly ground, with miles of finished driveways and a great reservoir lake on its nearer side. It contains pubhc athletic grounds and tennis courts, a large botanical palace and a richly developed zoological collection occupying an extensive group of houses, dens, aviaries and pools. The mansion house dates from the days when the park nucleus was a private estate, whose oak groves sug- gested the pleasing name. Street car routes to be chosen for rapid views of the city's different sections are outlined on the latter pages of this book. To Baltimore's large stock of historic interest the great fire, of course, contributed the most recent con- spicuous chapter. Starting from some unknown cause in John E. Hurst & Co.'s store, at the southeast corner- of German and Liberty streets, about 10 o'clock The New Baltimore. 15 Sunday morning, February 1, 1904, and fanned by changing winds, it continued during that and the suc- ceeding day, destroying 1,443 buildings, from Liberty and Fayette streets on the west and north to Jones Falls and the Basin on the east and south. The Court House, Post Office and City Hall were conspicuous for their escape from the general devastation of central office structures. No direct fatalities occurred, but the fire was the indirect cause of several deaths. A board was created, under the name of the Burnt District Commission, to turn the calamity into a blessing by organizing the work of rebuilding in a systematic and co-ordinated manner. The irregular mixture of old time brick buildings, which gave the region its char- acteristic appearance before the fire, have been suc- ceeded by fine, tall and modern structures of harmo- nious architecture, with a vigorous dispatch which evokes the admiration and astonishment of every visitor. The city derives its name from George and Caecilius Calvert, the first Lord Baltimore and his son, high minded Catholics who, in the time of King Charles and Queen " Mary," founded the colony of Maryland as a haven of religious freedom from the same established church severity which prompted the Puritan excursion to Plymouth Rock in 1620. The grant for Maryland was sealed June 20, 1632. Baltimore was founded as the result of a local petition to the Maryland authori- ties submitted July 14, 1729. The military vicissitudes of the Revolutionary War caused the Continental Congress to conduct its delib- erations for a time in Baltimore, meeting in "Congress Hall," which stood at the southwest corner of Balti- more and Sharp streets. Here the Congress conferred plenary authority on Washington, December 20, 1776, and after the American victories of Trenton and Princeton, which eliminated the causes of the removal, it adjourned February 27, 1777, meeting in Philadelphia on the subsequent 4th of March. 16 The New Baltimore. * * The Star Spangled Banner, ' ' now the official Ameri- can song, had its origin in a Baltimore episode ol the War of 1812. Fort McHenry, established by the colony in the course of the preliminaries to the Revolutionary War, and put in modern military condition during the Spanish- American, was unsuccessfully bombarded by the British, September 12-13, 1814. A Marylander, Francis Scott Key, detained on board a British man of war, after a night's anxiety, expressed his joy by writing: "Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light. What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming!" September 12th has become a Baltimore legal holiday in commemoration of Fort McHenry, North Point and other heroic exploits of that time. McHenry is at the harbor commanding Whetstone Point, between the northwest and middle branches of the Patapsco. On a small island beyond is the historic Fort Carroll, between Fort Howard, on the northeast, and Fort Armistead, on the southwest sides of the river's mouth. The fortification used by General Butler during the Civil War has not been entirely obliterated in the process of transforming it into Federal Hill Park. Aside from incidents associated with the first three wars of national history, further mentioned in the subsequent street railway guide, Baltimore offers a rich variety of historic interest. Here was erected in 1792 the first monument to Columbus in America, and in 1815 the first conspicuous monument to Washington. The first American water works enterprise was that of Baltimore, in 1792, and also the first gas light com- pany, in 1816. Then there was the first railroad com- pany in the United States, the Baltimore and Ohio, in 1827. William Howard, of the same city, patented the first American locomotive in 1828, and in 1830 Peter Cooper made from Baltimore the first railroad coach The New Baltimore. 17 run. Naturally related to these is the history of the Morse telegraph, whose first message connected Balti- more and Washington by instantaneous communication in 1844. The Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, founded in 1839, is the oldest school of its kind, and in 1819 the Independent Order of Odd Fellows had its inception in Baltimore. The temple is at Cathedral and Saratoga streets. The first Methodist Episcopal Church in the United States, " Lovely Lane Meeting House," formerly stood on German street, near Cal- vert. The **01d Fountain Inn" was at the corner of German and Light streets. Here Washington lodged May 5, 1775, on his way as a delegate to the Second Continental Congress, and April 17, 1789, on his way as president elect to the inauguration at New York. The Maryland Historical Society building, with relics, statuary, paintings, manuscripts and a library, is at St. Paul and Saratoga streets. The old Merchants' Shot Tower, corner of Fayette and Front streets, near Jones Falls, and built in 1828, remains in spite of several proposals for its demolish- ment, as a landmark now only of historic value. During the great merchant marine growth of the United States in the early days, the "Baltimore Clipper" was unexcelled among the world's commer- cial sailing craft, and was an important factor in the development of the port. The city holds a population of nearly 700,000 in an area of 32 square miles. Of American municipalities only New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago and St. Louis excel it in size. The harbor has become equipped with modern freight transferring facilities along the many miles of curving water front, within close limits of space, afforded by both the northwest and middle branches of the Patapsco, both branches, like the river, being practi- Ig The New Baltimore. cally bays. Development of the middle branch harbor has been more recent. The Government is carrying- out a big program of channel improvement. Most familiar among the wharves are those of Pratt street and Light street, respectively on the north and the west sides of the Basin. Of the latter, piers 1 to 3 are between Pratt and Camden, 4 to 7 between Camden and Conway, 7h to 10, between Conway and Barre, 11 to 18 between Barre and Lee. The ocean steamers moor mainly at Locust Point, next to Fort McHenry. Potomac piers are 11 and 12 Locust Point. The Atlantic Transport pier is No. 1, at the foot of 8th and 9th avenues. Canton. The water supply is from two sources among the distant hills, through the Jones Falls and the Gunpow- der river systems, and the supply is conserved in a group of reservoirs, which include Montebella, Druid, Mt. Royal, Clifton, Roland, Hampden, High Service and Loch Raven. The newest and best of the pumping plants is the Mt. Royal station, McMechen st. and Malster ave. The whole street car and suburban electric service is under one management and ownership, that of the United Railways and Electric Company. It gives one transfer on a five cent fare to any intersecting line, and has put in practice a unique and convenient system for the designation of its twenty-seven routes by indi- vidual car numbers, each line being given one of the hundreds from 1 to 2699. These are shown by subse- quent tabulation. Of the company's several power houses, the chief is that on Pratt street, just east of the Basin. Baltimore has few railroad grade crossings, and its tunnels are one of the city's characteristic features. Baltimore's leading industries are those connected with the manufacture of made-up clothing, and with the collecting, canning and distributing of oysters and The New Baltimore. 19 fruits, in which respect it is the foremost center in the world. It leads i?i the manufacture of straw hats. In fertilizer plants it is also rirst. Others conspicuous are the leather, tobacco and pottery industries. It backs up its newspaper, periodical and trade organization exploitation of the whole south with a substantial support which draws addded attention to its attain- ments as a financial center. Its great Chesapeake steel mills and ship yards at Sparrows Point and its car shops at Curtis Bay place it in the list of iron cen- ters with Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Cleveland and Chicago. Baltimore's commercial development is suggested by this list of organizations: Chamber of Commerce, (temporary 225 N. Charles), Water and Holliday.

Educationally, Baltimore is one of the great centers, Johns Hopkins University, recognized as among the foremost institutions of the world, is particularly famous for its post-gradoate work, and as leading in development of the individual research method of advanced training. Plans are under way to provide it suburban grounds and buildings in place of the group along Howard street near Druid Hill avenue. The Johns Hopkins Hospital, on Broadway, at East Monu- ment street, and other institutions, have given the city a commanding place in progressive medical educa- tion. The Women "^s College of Baltimore, on St, Paul street, at 23d, ranks with Vassar, Wellesley, Bryn Mawr and Smith. The public school systeiTi was the first in the country to adopt manual training, and is especially strong in higher work specialization, as suggested by this list: Polytechnic Institute, Courtland, near Saratoga,' City College, for boys, Howard, near Center; Western Female High SchoxDl, McCulIoh and Lafayette; Eastern Female High School, Aisquith and Orleans; Colored High and Manual Training School, Pennsylvania avenue and Dolphin. The Maryland Institute for the Promo- tion of Mechanical Arts, at North Howard and Fifth, is partly supported by the city. The University of Maryland, at Lombard and Greene, was founded '\n 1807 as a medical school. Plans are developing to consolidate with its several institutions elsewhere in this State. The Baltimore College of DentaJ Surgery, first of its kind in the world, is at Eutaw and Franklin. The Maryland Academy of Sciences at 105 West Franklin, is a factor in the promo- tion of American research, and a suggestion of the art atmosphere of Baltimore is the reputation of the Walters Art Gallery, at No. 5 Mt, Vernon Place, as the finest private collection in America. By trust in- structions dated February 12, 1857, George Peabody The New Baltimore, 21 founded in the Peabody Institute, standing at Mt. Vernon Place, with its great special library, school of lectures, academy of music, gallery of art and system of high school premiums, one of the world's unique agencies for the promotion of erudite culture. Finally, it may be remarked, the ''suburb of Wash- ington," with all it offers, is an adjunct of Baltimore's educational, literary and scientific advantages. Distinguished in early years as ''the Monument City," Baltimore competes with others for the title of "the City of Homes" and "the City of Churches." Some especially mentionable among the latter are here listed: Protestant Episcopal— St. Paul's, Charles and Sara- toga, oldest church organization of any denomination in the city, dating back to 1693; Grace, Park and Monument, Christ Church, St. Paul and Chase; Emmanuel, Reade and Cathedral; St. Peters, Druid Hill avenue and Lanvale ; St. Lukes, Carey, near Lexington; Mt.

Associate Congregational Maryland and Preston. Lutheran -First English, Lanvale and Fremont; St, Pauls, Fremont and Saratoga; St. Marks, St, Paul and 20th; Zion (independent). Gay, north of Lexington. Friends- -Eutaw and Monument; Park and Laurens. Hebrew — Baltimore Congregation, Madison and Roberts; Oheb Shalom Congregation, Eutaw and Lan- vale. These two temples are among the most impress- ive and most unique specimens of architecture in the city. Prominent among clubs of the city are the Maryland Club, Charles and Eager streets, dating from 1857, the second formed in the United States, being ante- dated only by the Union Club, of New York; the University Club, Charles and Madison; the Baltimore Club, at 916 North Charles; the Athgeneum, Charles and Franklin, an edifice in the style of the seventeenth century; the Charcoal Club, a flourishing artists' organization, at 501 North Howard; the Country Club of Baltimore County, Park Heights and Belvedere Avenues; the Maryland Country Club, 2028 Mt.
