To the Press of the country especially are the warmest thanks due for the prompt and hearty manner in which they received, endorsed and gave the Cyclopedia of Boston the benefit of their editorial influence. Such a unanimous verdict has had the effect of creating a wide, steady and con- stantly increasiug demand for the book, as it could not fail to do, with so powerful a lever in its interest. In order that our readers may have some idea of, the kind words said of this work we excerpt a very few lines as examples of the criticisms it has received : Ilnrper'a FTfrA/y, (New York \ says: "Dexter Pmiths CvcLorEDiA of Boston Is a quaint and useful compauiuu to travellers in the Hub." The Boston (,'azcttr considers it " the njost complete puidc to Boston that has yet appeared. It would be dilticult to suggest any essential point that has been over- looked in the compilation of this work, which Alls, with great thoroughness, a void that h IS long been felt. It is at once a guide, a handbook and a blue book." The Jiosfon liracon .says " it contains a v.xst amount of curious and interesting information, particularly in regard to educatii-t B(>.st<.n). r.

A rrenchman— a n:itive of Lan- cuedoc— wrote of Boston in U"^7 .'us fol- biws: "We arriv<'d at Boston after having fallen in with a number of very l)retty Islands that lie in front of Boston, most of them cultivated anoden Houses; but, since there have been some ravages by Fire, building of wood is no longer allowed, so th:it at this present writing very hantLsome Houses of Brick are going up." Art in the Olden Time. In 1787 it was written: "Art and Sciences seem to have m.ide a (Jreater Progress here in Boston than in any other part of America. The Arts are undeni;ibly Much Forwarder in Mass.ichusetts-Bay "than in either rennsvlvania or New York. The Fublio Buildings of Boston are more elegant, and there is a More General Turn ART-BEX for Music, Painting and the Belles- littrep." What was ti'ue of Boston in 1787 also applies to the great city of to- day. Artistic Works of 1716. in the Boston Keus-Lciter of Aug. 27, 171G, was the following advertisement: This is to give iiotice, that at the House of Mr, George Brownell, late School blaster, in Hanover Street, Boston, are all sorts of Millinary "Works done; mak- ing up Dresses and flowering of Muslin, making of furbelow'd Scarfis, and Quilt- ing and Cutting of Gentlewomen's Hair in the newest Fashion, and also young Gentlewomen and Children taught all ports of fine works, as Feather-work, Filigre and Painting on Glass, Embroid- (ring a new way, Turkey-work for Hand- kerchiefs, two ways, fine new-Fashion i-urses, flourishing and plain "Work, and dancing cheaper than was ever taught in 3'oston.

Mather Byles in the Neir EiirjJand Jorirnal, published in Bos- ton in 1727 (Boston's fourth newspaper), on Governor Burnet's arrival, contained the following lines: "Welcome, Great Man, to our desiring eyes ! Thou Earth! proclaim it; and resound, ve Skies! Voice ansAvering "Voice, in joyful Concert meet. The Hills all echo, and the Rocks repeat; And Thou, O Boston, Mistress ol the Towns, "Whom the pleased Bay with am'rous arms surrounds. Let thy warm Transports blaze in num'- rous Fires, And beaming Glories glitter on thy Spires ; Let Rockets, streaming, up the Ether glare, And flaming Serpents hiss along the Air!" A Typical Boston Mansion of Provincial Days. Fennimore Cooper, the novelist, thus described the famous Frankland House, (m Garden Court Street. Bostonians held this house in high esteem: "The house was of bricks, and of an exterior altogether more pretending than most of those in the lower parts of the town. It was heavily ornamented in wood, according to the taste of a somewhat earlier day, and presented a front of seven windows in its two upper stories, those at the extremes being much narrower than the others. The lower floor had the same arrangement, with the exception of the jtrincipal door. The walls were divided into compartments by raised panel-work lieautifuliy painted with imaginary land- scapes and ruins. The glittering var- nished svirfaces of these pictures were burdened with armorial bearings, which were intended to illustrate the alliances of the family. Beneath the surbase were smaller divisions of panels, painted with various architectural devices; and above it rose, between the compartments, fluted liilasters of wood, with gilded capitals. A heavy wooden and highly ornamental cornice' stretched above the whole. The floor, which shone equally with the fur- niture, was tessellated with small alter- nate squares of red cedar and pine, and in the centre were the ' salient lions ' of Lechmere. On either side of the ponder- ous and labored mantel were arched compartments, denoting use. The sliding panels displayed a buftet groaning with massive plate." Cooper's description of the house is historically accurate. Banishment of Roger Wil- liams. On Oct. 13, 1C35, Roger Williams, for " heresy," was banished. Bargains in Real Estate, in the year 1830, Lucius M. Sargent bought at public auction three acres, three quar- ters and eight rods (105,526 feet) lying between Tremont Street and Shawraut Avenue, for two hundred and sixty-nine dollars and eighty cents. The same prop- erty would uow sell for at least one mil- lion dollars. Beacon on Gentry Hill. The law for the placing of the beacon which gave the Hill its name is to be foiind in the following resolution of the Court of Assistants, March 4, 1634: "It is ordered that there shall be forthwith a Beacon sett on the Gentry (Sentry) Hill, at Boston, to give notice to the Country of any Danger, and that there shall be a Ward of one person kept there from the first of April to the last of September; and that upon the Discovery of any Danger the Beacon shall be fiVed, an allarum given, as also Messengers presently sent by that Towne where the Danger is dis- covered to all other Townes within thi.? jurisdiccon." The beacon consisted of a tall pole, with an iron pot filled with tar at its top. The shaft was about sixty feet high, and at its top about two hundred feet above high tide of the sea. On the sides of the pole were placed treenails, upon which one could climb to light the fire in the kettle of tar at its top as a signal of danger. (A good illustration of this beacon may be seen on the cover of the paper edition of this book). The beacon was blown down, November, 1789, and was replaced by a monument, the panels of which are still to be seen on the walls of Doric Hall, State House, Beacon Street, (head of Park Street, near the Common.) (See Historical Tablets). ^enjamin Franklin's Birth- place, on Milk Street, is thus described: " Its front upon the street was rudely BEX-BOS 9 clapboarded, and the sides, and rear were ir>tt'C't«Ml from the incleuieiu-ies of a T\ow Ku^\ai\(1 climate by lar^re, mujrh thinplos. In lu'ight the hous«' was about three stories; in front, the second story jind rttif projected somewhat into the Btreet. over the priiuipal story on tiie ground floor. On the lower tloor of the main house there was one room only. This, whieh itrobably served the Frank- lins as a parlor and sittin}r-room, and, nlso, for the f.imily eatinj^-room, was about twenty fi et slpiare, and ha«l twi» windows on "the street; ami it had also one on the passap;e wr.y, so as to j:ive the inmates a frood vit w laces, situateil in a most capa- cious chimney; on the left of this was a spacious closet. On the {rround floor, connected with the sittin;;-room throu;;h the entry, w;i8 the kitchen. Tlu* second story orij^inally contained but one chamber, and iii this the windows, door, fire-place, and closet were similar in numlier and jiosition to those in the parlor beneath it.

The houses in sf)me parts join as in Lftndon. The buiblings, like their women, being neat and handsome; and their streets, like the hearts of the male inhabitants, are paved with pebble. In the chief or high street there are stately edifices, some of which h:ive cost the owners two or three thousand jxtunds the raising; whieh, I think, plainly proves two old adages true, viz: That •a fool and his money are soon p:irted,' and '.Set a beggar on horseback and lie Ml ride to the devil,' ft)r the fathers of these men were tinkers and peddlers," Boston in 1719. According to Daniel Neale. who described Hoston in IIVJ: "lii'; Bay of Boston is spacious 10 BOS enough to contain in a manner the Na\'y of England. The masts of ships here, and at proper seasons of the year make a kind of Forest of Trees. At 'the bottom of tlie Bay is a noble pier, 2000 feet long, ■\vith a row of Warehouses on the North side, for the use of Merchants. Ships of the greatest burthen may unlade Avithout the help of boats or lighters. From the head of the pier you go up the chief street of the Towne, at the upper end of which is the Towne House or Exchange, a tine piece of building, containing, besides the walk for the Merchants, the Council Chamber, the House of Commons, and another spacious room for the sessions of the Courts of Justice." Boston Massacre. The first actual conflict between the residents of Boston and the British troops occurred in King (State) Street, March 5, 1770. The troops were called "lobsters," in derision by street-urchins, on account of their scarlet coats. " He's the soldier who knocked me down!" shouted a boy, pointing to a sentinel who had just before hit the lad with the butt-end of his mus- ket. This was at the corner of Exchange Lane and King Street. Some one in the crowd cried—" Knock the lobster down! " Others shouted— " Kill him!" The sen- tinel quickly loaded his gun, and re- treated up the steps of the Custom House, which then stood on that corner, " He's going to fire!" exclaimed a voice. Henry Knox, who was passing, said to the soldier— "If you dare to fire you shall die for it! " " Well," replied the sentinel, " if they touch me, I'll shoot them ! " The crowd began to throw snowballs and other things at him, when he levelled his musket at them and shouted for assist- ance. A sergeant, with seven men, came to his relief. Capt, Thomas Preston, of the Twenty-Ninth, joined his men, mak- ing ten. There w-ere about sixty peoi)le in the front of the Custom House. "You cowardly scoundrels," shouted some one, " put down your guns and we're ready for you!" Clubs were soon brought to bear against the soldiers, who had pro- voked the mob by pressing them back ■with their bayonets. Seven of the sol- diers fired, killing Crispus Attucks, Samuel Gray and James Caldwell, and fatally wounding Samuel Maverick and Patrick Carr. Six others were wounded seriously, Boston's Early English Pro- clivities. It is not to be wondered at that Londoners have ever felt very much at home in Boston. The architecture of London was almost perfectly reproduced in Boston. The fashions of the clothes worn by ladies and gentlemen in Boston, were copied from the London mode. Even in the speech of the people the similarity obtained among the descend- ants of the early settlers. Benjamin Franklin remarked this feature of the Bostonians particularly, after residing in Philadelphia. Alluding to the English tone of his Boston visitors, he said: "I enjoy the company and conversation of its (Boston's) inhabitants, when any of them are so good as to visit me; for, be- sides their general good sense, which I value, the Boston manner, turn of jihrase, and even tone of voice and accent in pronunciation, all please and seem to refresh and tevive me." It is superfluous to add that the Boston of to-day sustains all of its former English tone, the city taking its fashions in social customs, dress, etc., from London, Boston's Early Names. Boston's Indian name was Shawmutt, signifying "living fountains" in their dialect. It was afterwards called Tri- mountaine, owing to the fact that its principal hili had three distinct peaks. (This hill was once called Centry (Sentry) Hill, afterwards Beacon Hill.) Boston received its present name, Sept. 7, 1C30, being called after Boston, England. Boston's Elegance in 1766. John Adams' Diary contains the fol'.ow- ing: "Dined at Mr. Nick Boylston's— an elegant dinner indeed. Went over the house to view the furniture, which alone cost a thousand pounds sterling. A seat it is for a nobleman, a prince. The Tur- key carpets, the painted hangings, the marble tables, the rich beds with crim- son damask curtains and counterpanes, the beautiful chimney clock, the spacious garden, are the most magnificent of any- thing I have ever seen." Boston Harbor Blockaded. On May 10, 1774, British Men-of-War ef- fectually blockaded Boston Harbor. Boston in 1687. A writer inthat year said: " As for wild beasts in Boston, "we have here plenty of bears, wolves in great number, and plenty of rattle- snakes."

In the oar'y days of the Town tlie houses, inns and shojs •were not numbered, but at eertain points ■were plaeed eurious enddematie stones, sipns, ete., to jioint the way. or to mark tiie position of various buildings.

The Stone— or Stoius, for there are two, the lower one having been used as a paint-mill, and the uppi r sph« rieal one as a prindcr — was broupht here from Enpland. The Stone is jdactd in the wafi quite near the prf)und. Ijion it is the inseription: ' Uoston Stone, 17;>7."

But it was only another test case, involvinp a recopnition t)f the sunremacy of Parliament, and every one understood it. Samuel Adams was busy with his fellow-patriots makinp arranpements for the proper recejitionof the 'detested tea.' The consipnees were cautioned in ad- vance by the ' Liberty Tree ' committee. The clubs and newsjlapers were of one mind on the subject. Numerous town meetinps were held, first in Taneuil Hall and tli'cu ia the Old .South, at wliich it was unanimously determined, upon Ailams's motion, that the tea should l»e sent back and that no duty should be paid upon it. It was a diJiicult matter to c<)nvin^e the authorities that this vote of the town was imperative.

Writes The ^ ( TV Ktvereiid ^\ illiani Byrne — tVicar- (;«-n"n: " One hundred yeai.s ago ciliout 1780) there were about one hundred ("atludics in Boston. These were for the most part either French. Irish tr Si)anish. . . . They had then no church org;inization, no chunli. no regular plaeo of worship, ;ind only the occasional min- i-tr;itions of transient jiriests. . . . These missionaries wire succeeded ly the Rev. .lolin Thaver. a native of Boston, a convert to the Catholic faith, who ha«l been a Conirreg:itional minister. During this gentleman's travels in Eurone iu 1781-83. he learned and accepted the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church. 14 EAR-EXP . . . After heing ordainecl priest he returned to America, and visited Dr. Carroll, of Baltimore, the Superior of the missions in the United States. Dr. Carroll assigned him to the Boston mis- sion. On his arrival in Boston, Jan. 4, 1790, he found the Catholics using as a place of religious assembly and worship, a small chapel on School Street. This chapel had been previously occupied by a small Huguenot congregation, but was the property of Mr. Perkins, from whom Father Thaver obtained, in 1790, a lease tor a tew ve'ars. This may be said to be the first regularly organized church so- ciety of lloman Catholics in Boston." Early Literature. Boston achieved its literary pre-eminence— which it still holds— ea'rly in the history of the country. In 1719, Daniel Neal, the well-known writer, in describing Boston, wrnte: "The Exchange is surrounded with Booksellers' Shops, which have a good trade. There are five printing- presses in Boston, which are generally full of work, by which it appears that humanity and the knowledge of letters flourish more here than in all the other Eng'ish plantations put together, for in the city of New York there is but one Bookseller's Shop, and in Virginia, Mary- land and Carolina none at all." ' Early Settlers. In July, 1C30, a fleet of ten ships (including the " Arbel- la") from Yarmouth, England, arrived in Boston Harbor, bearing a band of men, self-reliant, resolute and determined, who were to establish a home for the op- pressed of alJ the nations of the earth. This company included John "VVinthrop, JohnWilson, Isaac Johnson,Thomas Dud- ley, and other equally heroic, sturdy men. Eavecdropping in 1699. Salu- tary lessons were often taught eavesdrop- pers and busybodies in early days. Ed- ward AVard wrote home to Eng'land, as follows: " A good cudgel, applied in the dark, is an excellent medicine for a malignant spirit. I knew it experienced at Boston, Avith a very good success upon an old rigged precisian, one of their select, who used to be more than ordi- narily vigilant in discovering even little irregularities in the neighborhood. I hniipened, one night, to be pretty merry with a friend, opposite the zealot's dwell- ing:, who got ovit of his bed in his waist- coat and drawers, to listen at our win- dow. My friend, having oft been served so, had left unbolted his cellar trap-door, as a pitfall for Mister Busir-Body, who, ste]iping upon it, sunk down with an outcry like that of a distressed mariner in a sinking pinnace. My friend, having planted a ciulgel ready, ran down stairs, crying, 'Thieves!' and belabored old troublesome very severely before he would know him. ' He crying out, ' I am your neighbor! ' — 'Y^'ou lie, yoti rogue!* says my friend, ' my neighbors are honest men. You are some thief, come to rob my house ! ' By this time I went down w^ith a candle, my friend seemingly won- derfully surprised to see 'twas his neigh- bor, ami one of the select, too, put on a counterfeit countenance, and heartily l)egged his pardon. Away trooped the old fox, grumbling and shrugging his shoulders, and he afterwards became the most moderate man in authority in the whole Towne of Boston." Education in Colonial Days. A law passed Nov. 11, 1647, read as fol- lows: "To the end that Learning may not be buried in the graves of our Fore- fathers, it is ordered in all the Puritan Colonies that every Township, after the Lord hath increased them to the number of fifty households, shall appoint one to teach all children to write and read; and when any Town shall increase to the number of one hundred families, they shall set up a Grammar School, the mas- ter thereof to be able to instruct youth so far as they may be fitted for theL^niver- sity; provided that if any Town neglect the performance hereof, above one year, that every such Town shall pay five pounds to"^the next School, till they shall perform the order." Effects cf Early Rising. Fresi- drnt Cnincy of Harvard College, and John Quiney Adams, who were "addicted to the vice of intemperate early rising," one day comi)limented Judge Joseph Story liy attending one of his lectures at Harvard University Law School, and had hardly become seated before they both fell asleep. Judge Story, pointing to them, said to the "amused students: "Gentlemen, you see before you a melan- choly example of the evil efl;ects of early rising-" Shouts of laughter awoke the worthy slumberers. Experiences of Early Settlers. Captain Roger Clap— one of a company coming from Flyaiouth, England— arriv- ing at Hull, Boston Harbor, (after a ten- weeks' tempestuoits voyage), May 30, 1630, and who settled in Dorchester, wrote: "When we came to Nantasket, Captain Bqueb, who was Captain of that great Ship of Four Hundred Tons, would not bring us into Charles River, as he was bound to do; bitt put us ashore, and our goods, on Nantasket Point, and left us to shift for ourselves in a forlorn Place in this Wilderness. But, as it pleased God, we got a Boat of some old Planters, and laded her with Goods; and some able men, well armed, went in her unto Charlestown: where we found some Wig- wams and one House, and in the House there was a man which had a boiled Bass, but no Bread that we see: but we did eat of his Bass, and then went up Charles FAX-GAS 15 Rivrr, nntil the Rirrr prrw narrow and fh.'illow, and tluTe we lunded our (ioods, with Labour and Toil, the Bank being steep.

There was soon a quarrel be- tween them and the boys, for the soldiers used to beat down the snowhills that the boys had heaped up on the Common. After appealing in vain to the captain, the boys finally went to Governor Gage and complained. ' What! ' he said, ' have your fathers been teaching you rebellion, and sent you here to exhil it it?'— 'No- body sent us, sir,' said one of the boys. ' We have never injured nor insulted your troops ; but they have trodden down our snowhillSj and broken the ice on our skating-ground. We complained, and they called us young rebels, and told us to help ourselves if we could. We told the captains of this, and they laughed at us. Yesterday our works were destroyed for the third time, and we will bear it no longer.' The Governor, with surprise, said to one of his officers, ' The vei y children here draw in a love of Liberty with the air they breathe. You may go, my I rave boys, and be assured, if my troops trouble you again they shall be punished.' " Gentlemen's Dress in 1795. A New York merchant visiting Boston in 1795 wrote home that " the broad aisle of Brattle Street Church was lined by gentlemen in wigs, with cocked hatP, and scarlet coats." Ruffles of lace, silk stockings, and polished shoes, with buckles, were also portions of the cos- tume. Goin^ from Eocton to Rox- bury was a perilous journey in 1713. In January of that year, " one'Bacon, of Roxbury, going home ni his slade (sled or sleigh) with three horses, was bewil- derkl in the dark, himself found dead with the cold, next morning, one of the horses droAvned in the Marsh, the other two not yet heard of." Griffin's Wharf. Xear the foot of Pearl Street. Now known as Liver- pool AVharf. This was the scene of the famous " Boston Tea-Party." (See Bns- ton Tea-Party^. In the spring of 1773 the East India Company obtained an Act of Parliament authorizing the Company to export Teas to America without pav- ing the ordinary duty in England. Ships were dispatched to America with the Tea, on every pound of which a tax of threepence had been imposed. The fol- lowing graphic account of the result is condensed from an article in the Memo- rial History of Boston : " When this news became known all America was in a flame. The people had taken their stand upon a principle, and not until that was recognized would they withdraw their opposition." Hair-Srescin^j in 1800. Mon- sieur Alexandre Lnvigne, from Paris, established a hair-dressing shop in Boston, and announced that he would arrange ladies' hair " in the Greek, Flora or Virginia fashions," Avhile the hair of the gentlemen would be cut " a la Brutus," or " a la Titus," as desired. Harvard Theatra. A theatre was opened in Cambridge, called the Harvard Theatre, April 28, 1830. (See Eieni/ul PiayhlUs). Harvard University in 1781. The distinguished Abbe Robin, of France, wrote fnnn Boston as follows, in 1781: "The Europeans have long been con- vinced of the natural and moral dangers to be apprehended in acquiring education in large towns. The Bostonians have advanced farther; they have prevented these dangers. ' Their' University is at Cambridge, seven miles from Boston on the banks of Charles River, in a beautiful and healthy situation. There are four Col- leges, all of brick, and of a regular form. The English troops made use of them as barracks in 1775, and forced the professors and students to turn out. " The Library contains more than 5,000 volumes; anil they have an excellent printing-house, well furnished, that was originally in- tended for a College for the native Indians. To give you an idea of the merit of the jirofessors, it will be suffi- cient to say that they correspond with the literati of Europe, and that Mr. Sewall in particular. Professor of the Oriental languages, is one of those to whom the Author of genius and ability has been lavish of those gifts; their pujnls often act tragedies, the subject of which is generally taken from their na- tional events, siudi as the Battle of Bun- ker's Hill, the Burning of Charlestown, and the Fall of British Tyranny."

Th'* oldest mutnnl re'i'"'f orTr>ni7ation in Toston. :)nd jirobab'v in the country, i.s the "Scots' Charitai)le Society," which w;is founded in It^'iT.

In referring to this Society, Edward Everett said: "It would be doing in- justic to a Soci( tv of this description, though it may bear'a foreign n:ime. to re- gard it as an institution of foreigners." Since then there have been formed in 20 OLD Boston Societies clccd^ned for tlie relief of the Eng;lisli, German, French, Italian, Irish, Belgian, Portuguese, Swiss, Scan- dinavian and Hebrew rec-idents. Old-Fo^yism in Boston. The following, an editorial in the Courier of June 27, 1827, reads oddly enough to-dr.y: " Alcibiadcs, or some other great man of anti(iuitv, it is said, cut off liis dog's tail that quid lUDics might not become extinct from want of excitement. Some such notion, we doubt not, moved one or two of our natural and experimental philoso- jdiers to get up the project of a railroad from Boston to Albany, — a project which every one knows, who Knows the simplest rule 'in arithmetic, to be impracticable, but at an expense little less than the market value of the whole territorj^ of Massachusetts; and which, if practicable, everv person of common-sense knows wouUl be as useless as a railroad from Boston to the moon." This is a specimen of the conservative spirit that has hin- dered progress in Boston for scores of years. Old Inns. In the early days of the town of Boston the Inns— 'or Taverns — were built like those of England, and named in a similar manner. After the Declaration of Independence, however, the feeling of hatred toward the mother country was so intense that in common with many other English fashions, this form of nomenclature was abandoned. The same spirit was exhibited in chang- ing the names of the streets, and Royal Alley became Blackstone Street, Queen Street became Court Street , King Street became State Street. Of late years, a reaction has set in, and streets and hotels are being named after the English. Wit- ness our Royal, Victoria, Brunswick, Bristol, Berkeley and other hotels, and our Arlington, 'Clarendon, Dartmouth, Exeter, Crloucester, Hertford, Marl- borough, Newbury and other streets. The following were some of the famous Inns of olden times: "The Green Dragon," the most noted of them all, in Union Street; the " Red Lyon Inn," on the corner of North and Richmond Streets, ke]it by Nicholas Upsall, a Quaker; "Black Horse Inn," on what is now Prince Street; the " Ship Tavern," or "Noah's Ark," corner of North and ClarkStreets; " The Goldeji Candlestick; " "The Key;" "The Star Tavern;" "The Elephant'Tavern; " "The Blue Anchor," "The Bunch of Grapes," etc. On old Newbury Street (now Washington Street, near W>st Street) " The White Horse," "Tho Lion" and "The Lamb Tavern." (The " Lnmb Tavern " was the original of the present Adams House). There is still o]»en in Williams Couit, leading from Court Square to Washington Street, an old alehouse called " TheBeU-in-Hand." Old Names of Streets, it is in- teresting to trace the changes that have taken place in the street-nomenclature of Boston. What was called Adams Square in 1880 was named Dock Square in 1710, and Around the Towne Dock inlG73; Boylston Street in 1808 was Frog Lane in IGDl); Devonshire Street, in 178G, was Pudding Lane in 1701) and afterwards Black Jack Alley; Exchange Street in 1816 was for- merly Royal Exchange Lane; High Street, since 1708, was Cow Lane in 1707; Hollis Street, since 1732, was Broad Alley in 1721 ; Kilby Street, since 17G9, was Mackerel Lane in 1708; Leverett Street, named 11'^, was Green Lane previously; North Street, 1853, was Ann Street, Ship Street, Fish Street, etc., in portions; Park Street, 1803, was Gentry (Sentry) in 1783; Williams Court was Peck's Arch; Portland Street, 1807, was Cold Lane in 1707; Prince Street, in 1703, was Black Horse Lane in 1G90; Province Street, in 1834, was Governor s Alley in 1730; Salem Street was Back Street; State Street, in 1781, was King Street in 1707; Summer Street, 1703, was Seven Star Lane; Temple Place, 1830, was Turnagain Alley in 1708; Tileston Street, 1820, was Love Lane in 170 J; Walnut Street, 179.1, was Coventry in 1733 ; Wash- ington Street, 1788, bore several names; the part of it from Dock Square to School Street was called Cornhil — from School to Winter Street it was known as Mary- borough— from AYinter to Essex it was Ncweberry (or Newbury)— and above Es- sex Street it was Orange Street. These names were all consolidated into Wash- ington Street about 1823. AViuter Street, in 1708, had been called B^ott's Lane, etc. (Boston not only had Spring, Summer and Winter Streets nearly a century ago, but it also had its Milk and Water Streets), Old South End. in 1816 the South End of Boston was in the vi<'inity of Hanover Street, near its present junction with Washington Street. How the okl fogies of those days would have stared at one who should have expressed the opinion that in less than a hundred years the South End would be miles away, and the extreme North End take its 'place. Boston still possesses its old fogies. Old Time Bill-of-Fare. cap- tain Roger Clap, from Plymouth, England, who settled in Dorchester, in May, 1g;50, wrote to his children in England as fol- lows: "It is not accounted a strange thing to drink Water, and to eat Samp, or Homine. without Butter or Milk. In- deed it would be a strange thing to sec a piece of Roast Beef, Mutton or Veal; though it was not long before there was roast (roat. Once I had a Peck of Corn for a little Puppy-Dog.

AVe must not go too far. In truth I shrink From shedding of more blood. The people murmur At our severity." Hawthorne based his "Gentle Boy" — one of his ''Twice-told Tales " on the per- secutions of the Quakers in Boston. Quarrel at the Town Pump. An Englishman, Edward Ward, in l(i;>'J, wrote home to London: " I was mightily pleased, one morning, with a contention between two boys at a pump in Boston, about who should draw water first. One jostled the other from the handle, and he would fill his bucket first, because his master said prayers and sung psalms twice a day in his" family, and the other's master did not. To which the witty knave made this reply: ' Our house stands back in a court. If my master had a room next the street, as your master has, he'd pray twice to your master's once, that he would; and therefore I'll fill mj' pail first, marry will I! ' and did accordingly." The old Town Pump, here referred to, stood in the middle of Washington Street, a few yards north of Court Street towards Cornhill. Railway Speed in 1834. We read in the Boston Advertiser of April 8, 1834, that the engine of the trial train run the day before between Boston and Tsewton " travelled n^itb ease at the rate of twenty miles an hour." Regulating the Height of Dogs. July 1, 1728, dogs were so numerous in Boston that a law was passed forbidding any pei"son to keep a dog " above ten inches in height."

Sabbath-Bi-^aking", in "j-e olden tyme" any form of Sabbath- breaking was looked after very care- fully. Sunday began at sunset on Satttrr. day.

By order of His Majesty's Justices of the Peace in the town of Boston: Whereas there appears a growing negligence of duly observing and keeping the Lord's Day, the Justices in the town of Boston have agreed to Walk and observe the Behaviour of the I'eople of said Town of Boston on said Day; and they judge it proper to give this Public ' Notice thereof; and all persons profaning the Lords' Day by 7iaikiti(/, sta)uli7t(/ in the streets, or any other way Breaking the Laws made tor the due observation of the Lord's Day, may expect the execu- tion of the Law upon them for all dis- orders of this kind. Samuel Adams. The people of the United States cr.n never suihciently revere the nnmoiv of Samuel Adams. He was born in Boston, Sept. 16, 1722; graduated at Harvard College 1740; took his Master's Degree 1743; proposed a Tnion of the Coh nies in Opposition to the Parliament of (^reat Britain, 1764; declared for Iiulepcndtnce, 17()8; de- nianded the rtnoval of the British Troops from Boston, 1770; opposed the Landing of the Tta, 1773; signed the Declaration of Independf nee, 177{); died, in Boston, Oct. 2, 1803, in his 82d year; committed to the Checkley Tomb, Granary Burying-Gmmd. Adams has justly been termed " The Father of the Anerican Eevolution." Among the other titles bestowed upon him have heen "The American Cato," "The Chief Incendiary," "Tribune of the People," " Cromwell of New England," "The La.st of the Puritans," etc. Adams was born in Purchase Street. "When fourteen years of age, he was admitted to Harvard, with the intention of becoming a minister, stimu- lated as he had been, bv the preaching of Edwards and Whitf fie'ld. His father, becoming unsuccessful in business, K laced him in a mercantile position, [e then began to take strong interest in public affairs. In 1765 Adams was sent to the Legislature, and annually after that for ten years. He was a leader, with pen and voice. Governor Hutcliin- son tenned him "Master of the Pup- pets." Governor Barnard said of Adams: " Everv' dip of his pen sting.s like a horned snake.*' Governor Gage ofiered to confer upon him such benefits as would be satis- factory, if he would withdraw his oppo- sition to the administration, and, by changing his course, make his peace with King Henry YIII. Adams answered, " Sir, I trust I have long since made my peace with the King of Kings!" Wit- nessing the Battle of Lexington he said to Hancock: "What a glorious morning SAT-SWE 25 for America!

One .Qum- ni'T afternoon, in 171:i. members of a s<>- ciety formed to en.our age imiustrv and frugality, celebr.tted their fourth "anni- versarv by making a luibliiv demonstra- tion. al>ou"t three hundred young female sj.insters. de<'ently dressed,* appeared on tde Common at their spinning wheels. The wheels were placed regularly in three rows, and a young woman "wa.s M'aUMl at each wheel." The weavers also appeared, cleanly dressed, in garments of their own weaving. One of them worked at a loom on a staire carried on men's slu)ulders, att<*nded with music. There was a large number of si)Cctators.

The King's Missive. In 1657, a Quaker, Samuel Shattock, was publicly whipped for expostulating against th3 gagging of anotiier Quaker. Shattock was banished, subsequently. He went to London, secured a royal order from the King to have all Quakers arrested in Boston sent to England for punishment, and returned here to inform Governor Endicott of the order of the King. All Quakers were released from jail. How- ever, Quakers were after that whipped at the cart's tail through the streets of Boston. The Quaker poet, ^Yhittier, has in his poem, "The King's Missive," graphically described the proceedings. "We select the following stanzas from that poem: " One brave voice rose above the din; IJpsall— gray with his length of days- Cried, from the door of his Red Lion inn, ' Men of Boston! Give God the praise! No more shall innocent blood call down The bolts of wrath on your guilty town; The freedom of worship dear to you Is dear to all, and to all is due. " ' I see the vision of days to come. When your beautiful City of the Bay Shall be Christian liberty's chosen home. And none shall his neighbor's rights gainsay; The varying notes of worship shall blend And as one great prayer to God ascend; And hands of mutual charity raise Walls of salvation and gates' of praise ! ' So passed the Quakers through Boston town, Whose painful ministers sighed to see The walls of their sheep-fold falling down, And Avolves of heresy prowling free. But the years went on, and brought no wrong ; With milder counsels the State grew strong. As outward Letter and inward Light Kept the balance of truth aright." Tom and. Jerry was the name of a famous old drink in Boston and New England, having been in vogue as early as 1825. A member of a teinperance so- ciety in 1839 was disciplined for drinking, and tho excuse was that the intoxicated man had not ))een drinking anything, but had " eaten some Tom and Jerry with a spoon."

In the panels of the monu- ment were inscriptions designed to com- memorate leading events of the Ameri- can Ecvolution. These panels are now to be seen on the walls of the corridor opening on the right from Doric Hall, State House, Beacon St., having been placed there Feb. 21, ISGl. The inscrip- tions on the south and east side panels arc as follows : TO - COMMEMORATE TUAT - TkAIX - OF - EVE>-TS WiiiOH - Led To - The - American - Revolutio:?^ And - Finally - Secuked Liberty - And - Independence TO - The - United - States This - Column - is - Erected BY- The -iVoLUNTARY - Contributions Of - The - Citizens Of - Boston.

At the State House there are fac-simi- les of the Memorial Stones of the Wash- ington Family in the parish church of Brington, near Althorp, Northampton- shire, England, the burial-place of the Spencers. These Stones were presented by the Right Honorable Earl Spencer to Honorable Charles Sumner, and by him given to the State of Massachusetts, Feb. 22, 18G1. These JMemorial Stones are of Lawrence Washington (father of John Washington, who was great-grandfatln r of George Washington) and of Robeit (uncle to John Washington). The famous Parting Stone (dividing stone) stands at the corner of Washing- ton and Centre Streets in the Roxbuiy District. It was erected by Paul Dudley, and bears on its front the following: The Parting Stone. 1774. P. Dudley. On its Northerly side : Cambridge. Watertown. Southerly side : Dedham. Rhode Island.

This theatre was located upon the corner of Portland and Traverse Streets, and replaced what was known as the old National Theatre, which was opened Aug. 15, 1836, and destroyed by tire April 22, 1852. (Previous to the old Na- tional there stood on the same site the Warren Theatre — named in honor of Gen- eral Joseph Warren — opened July 3, 1832, hy William Pelby). The new National Theatre was opened on Monday evening, November 1, 1852, by Joseph Leonard. The program comprised George Colman the Younger's The Heir at Law. Dr. Pangloss Douglas Stewart (His first appearance in America). Daniel Dowlas Wm. H. Curtis Dick Mr. Prior Kenrick S. D. Johnson Lady Duberly Mrs. Archbold Cicely Mrs. W. H. Smith (Other characters by the company) and the Farce of John Dobbs, the latter being played by Cornelia Jef- ferson, Bertha Lewis, Douglas Stewart,. W. H. Curtis, S. D. Johnson and V. Hays. Previous to the performance of the comedy, W. M. Leman read an orig- inal address written by W. O. Eaton. (The "Douglas Stewart''^ of the bill was the nom de theatre of Edward A. Sothern, who, on this occasion made his first ap- Eearance in America, and who later ecame famous as the impersonator of Jord Dundreary. His performance of Dr. Pangloss was a disappointment). John Holloway was musical director ; S. Lake, ballet-master. Prices were as fol- lows: Dress circle and parquette, 50 cents; second or family circle, 25 cents; third circle or gallery, 25 cents; private boxes, single ticket $1. Doors were opened at 6.30, the curtain rising at 7 o'clock. Canton Street, Dover Street, Cambridge, Roxbury, Charlestown and South Boston omnibusses were run at the close of the performance, and a train for old Cambridge left at 11.15 every evening except Saturday. Opening o£ tlie Present Bos- ton Theatre. On Monday evening, September 11, 1854, the magnificent Bos- ton Theatre was first opened to the ])ub]ic, under the management of Thomas Barry. It is in most respects to-day what it was then, the finest theatre on this continent. There may be some few others that nearly approach it in size of audi- torium, but as respects grandeur, breadth and depth of stage, height of proscen- ium, acoustic effects, and general re- sources, as well as roomy corridors and anterooms, no other dramatic establish- iiient in the country rivals it. This is the testimony of all the great foreign stars who make tours in America. On the occasion of its opening the following bill was i)resented, after National airs and Rossini's overture to William Tell had been performed by Thomas Comer's or- chestra, and a prize address had been delivered by John Gilbert (written by T. W. Parsons): THE RIVALS. By Richard Brinsley Sheridan. Sir Anthony Absolute John Gilbert Captain Absolute George Pauncefort (From Theatre Royal, Dublin, Istapp. in America).

(1885). 181 Tremont St. Boston is the home of Oratorio in the United States, its Handel and Haydn Society having long occvi])ied the fore- most position among the Choral Societies of America. It ranks well with similar organizations in England. Recognizing Boston's pre-eminence in this department of musical art, Charles Abercrombie, who has for some years occupied the position of tenor at Her Majesty's Chapel IJoyal, St. James Palace, London, and a pupil of the most eminent masters of London, came here at the opening of the musical season of 1885-6 and established an Oratorio School, the only institution of the kind anywhere, whic'h is attract- ing pupils from every section of the Ignited States and Canada. His success has been so phenomenal that he has de- cided to remain permanently in Boston. His method combines the best features of the systems of his famous teachers.

Ui)on his retirement from active professional duties upon the operatic stage, Charles H. Adam.s, the greatest dramatic tenor America has yet produced, decided to establish himself in Boston as a teacher of singing. He soon became known as one of the foremost vocal teachers of the world, and pupils from all parts of the United States came to obtain instruction from him. Many ■who had contemplated going to Europe for a course of study changed their plans and came to Boston instead, thereby sav- ing money, to say nothing of the \ime, the disconif orts of ocean voyages, foreign travel, etc. Finding a great'desire among his pupils for operatic instruction, he es- tablished in the autumn of 1885 an oper- atic school. He had constructed a stage, with scenery, properties', and all the ap- pointments of a regular theatre, on a small scale to be sure, but amply sufficient to enable his pupils to appear in scenes from operas, in costume, and before audiences invited to witness their jjerformances, some of which would do credit to artists of recognized ability. Boston now has rn Operatic School 'in which any city might well take pride. Agricultural Schools. (See Jiuss^^/ I:!f:H'i(te, Farm School and Dos^ ton University College of Agricxdturc): Allen's Stenographic Insti- tute. 15 State St. Among the noted institutions for imparting jjirictical, itsc- ffil knowledge in Boston, Allen's Steno- graphic Institute must be mentioned among the foremost. Its reputation is not merely local; it extends to the most distant sections of the United States and the Canadas, from all of which come liupils to prepare themselves for active and profitable duties in life. A knowl- edge of stenography is one of the most valuable acquisitions that can possibly be learned by one in any position in life; it is equally important to the student, the professional gentleman and the busi- ness man. Allen's Stenographic Institute is the oldest, largest, and most noted Shorthand School in New England. By the method taught here the student learns each princi/ Ir, both mentally and meeiianically, applies it in general litera- ture, and is enabled to read it before taking the next step, and therefore where there is an inclination, and time for practice, with even the most ordinary ability, there is no possibi'ity of a failure to make the art practicable; that is, ta report an average speaker verbatim; because, with the first lesson, the student will be enabled to write with from one- seventh to one-twentieth as manv strokes as would be required in longhand writing, and, consequently, when as well learned, the shorthand should be written nearly seven times as fast. Whenever a person can write more rapidly than by longhand, and read it, it will be In that proportion more valuable than longhand, in, taking AME— Die 47 notos of looturrs in Fchool rr ol?cwhrro ; in writiiifT K-ttors from dirtation, or in other cases wlu-re time in writinp is to ho savf«l.

Bussey Institute School of Agriculture and Horticulture. (1870), Jamaica Plain District. A de- partment of Harvard University. The great estate contains 3G0 acres, 137 of which are taken for the uses of the arbo- retum. (See Arnold Arboretum.) The fjrounds are naturally exceedingly jeautiful, comprising upland, -woodland, hills and meadows, among whicli are rippling brooks, the scene being one of the most charming to be found anywhere, especially within the precincts of*^a great commercial city. It has all the attrac- tions of a rural landscape, combined with such artistic features as have been taste- fully added. Very few of the inhabitants of the crowded city know what a sylvan spot can be reached in a ride of a few minutes' duration; but when the charms of this region are fully realized, as they will be when the park of 164 acres (120 acres of the arboretum and 4-1 acres nd- i'oiniug) is made free to the public. The 5ussey School was established here through the princely liberality of the late Benjamin Bussey, who bequeathed the valuable estate for the purjjose of found- ing a school of agriculture, together with funds to be applied toward the same purpose. The school was opened in 1870, suitable buildings having been erected and roadways laid out. The school now has several eminent instruc- tors, practical education being given to numerous students. Recitations, lec- tures, experiments, etc., conducted here are reported, widely, and the Institute is assuming a foremost position among the great educational institutions of the land. The scientific study of agriculture and horticulture is one that may well in- terest the youth of this country, and the Bussey Institute, by its facilities for ex- perimental investigation, its means, and the thorough methods of its Faculty, must continue to attract students froin every section of the continent.

For 77iore than half a, century this School has been celebrated through- out America for its high standard, Its thorough and effective methods, and, also, for its watchful care over the bodily health of its pupils. This School makes a specialty of taking healthy, bright children, particularly boys, who wish to make more rapid progress than the ar- rangements of public schools allow; backward boj's or girls, who are assisted by extra teachers; delicate cliildren, Avho cannot study out of school; those who have unusual talent for music, painting, or modern languages, and other children who are so susceptible to changes of heat or cold, and need to study in an even, well-ventilated temperature, Chauncy Hall School is delightfully located, front- ing Copley sq,; fresh air and sunshine contribute greatly to the other great ad- vantages of its situation. These collat- eral benefits should be regarded by every parent and guardian who desires to see the young pupil possess " a sound mind in a healthy body." It is certainly a model private school in every particular. cni-coL 53 TJiis Prhool m.ikps a sppclalty of pro- jMriiii^ Imys for hu-im-ss, jTiiftssional wchools. etc., ill :uitliti«»ii to tittiiiK pupils for tlif Institute of Tfchnolojxy, and for Harvard I'niviTsity, both of which pri'at coUet^i-s contain ^ratluatts of C'hauncy Hall School.

The aim of this noted college is to furnish that liberal education which is the true prejiaration for the study of a learucd profcsbiou, or for a life devoted to 64 COL letters, education, or public affairs. It accordingly provides thorough and sys- tematic instruction in all those branches of literature, i)hiiosophy and science, known as the Liberal Arts. The degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Philosophy are conferred at this college. Expenses:' the only annual fees required from regular students in the College of Liberal Arts are: tuition, §100; inciden- tals, $10. College of Music, Eo;::toa University. (1872). 27 East Xewton St., Franklin sq. This college of music forms one of the great group of colleges comprising the Boston University (12 Somerset St.). It is the onlij institution of its grade and kind in America. This college of music is designed for students of the average proficiency of graduates of the best American conservatories of music. The advantages accruing to it from its location in Boston, and from its close association with Boston University, are very great. Here persons devoting themselves to this profession are enabled to complete a liberal education before beginning their special musical training. The best years for acquiring scholastic culture are also the best years for culti- vating the voice, the ear and the hand. A generous intellectual and aesthetic cul- ture is needed by every professional musician, and it is best acquired in con- nection with bis special studies. The ap- plicant for taking the piano-forte course at this college will be tested as to famil- iarity with Cramer's studies (Biilow), books 1 and 2; or dementi's Gradus ad Parnassum (Tausig edition) ; Bach's Three-part Inventions ; Moschelcs, op. 70; Mayer, op. 119, book 1; Bach's French and English Suites ; Kullak's Octaves, op. 49; Beethoven's Sonatas, etc. Candi- dates for the organ course will be exam- ined in Rink's Organ School ; Lemmens, Bach, Mendelssohn, and others. Tuition in voice, piano-forte or organ courses, including comi)osition and lectures, $200 per year. The opportunities for culture outside of the college in Boston are too numerous to recapitulate. The Boston Public Library and the library of the college furnish a collection of ten thou- sand volumes relating to music, access to which is free. College o£ Pharmacy. (Massa- chusetts). (1823). 1151 Washington st. The first apothecary shop in Boston of which history gives any account was that of William Davis, which was opened in 1646 on Washington St., a few steps north of the head of State st. The town pump was set up near his shop, in 1G50, Mr. Davis had a residence on State St., near Kilby St. He was captain of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery ComiDany— the oldest military organization in the coun- try, having been formed in 1G38, and is still an active company— from 1664 to 1072. The earliest movement for the im- provement of pharmacy by legal means was made by the Massachusetts Medical Society, Nov. 8, 1786, when the Legislar ture was petitioned to prevent the sale of poor and adulterated drugs. The Mas- sachusetts College of Pharmacy was for- mally instituted in January, 1823. Early in this century apothecaries feeling a need of increased scientific knowledge were accustomed to resort to the Har- vard Medical College. Courses of lectures were delivered before the members of the College of Pharmacy about 1858. In 1867 efforts were made to form a class of drug-store clerks of Boston. Twenty young men joined the class. The results were so successful that the College resolved to establish a i)ermanent practical School of Pharmacy. The in- stitution has steadily grown, and the students now represent a number of cities and towns outside of Boston, who are attracted by the high standard of scientific knowledge imparted. The Col- lege has one of the largest pharmaceuti- cal liliraries in the United States, in addition to complete files of foreign journals devoted to this subject. The regular course of instruction occupies six months, from October to March of every year. (Elective courses in micro- scopical and systematic Botany are offered to classes of twelve or more.) Fees: Preliminary examination for matricula- tion, §4 ($2 to students employed by members); examination for graduation, §10; each of the Professors' courses, $15; all special courses, $15. The College oc- cupies a building on Washington St., just above Dover st. Horse-cars from all 1^1 rts of the city and railway stations pass frequently. College of Physicians and Surgeons. 34 Essex st. (See Medical College for Women and Men). Collins' Private School for Hoys. Treniont st. Director, Leroy Z. Collins. No school for boys and young men in the United States enjcjys a higher reput.ation than this, and in no'institution of a similar class is there a higher stan- dard of education nor a more thorough system employed. Instruction in element- ary English studies is here imparted in the most through manner; French and German is taught by the most accom- plished naiit'C teachers; while the depart- ments devoted to preparing students for Harvard (and other universities), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (and other scientific schools), as w^ell as for business life, are carefully and system- atically organized, and carried out with a view to the pupil's successfully passing any examination.

Columbus School of Ija,n- ^uagca and Sciences. Knicker- bocker liuiliUn;:;. ITS and 17J Trcnioiit .-^t. Director, ('. Veneziani, I'h. 1). (Heidel- borp). This school has taken its jdaco among the leadinjr educational institu- tions in the land. Its objects are to im- part instruction in ancient and modern lan^uaKes— their respective literatures, romance, phil«)lo;;y — and in thes<;ienccs: and to prcjiare students for Harvanl llniversity, .Ma-ssachusctts Institute of Teehuolo;:v, and all other CoUe^^cs and Scientifur i^chools. Lanj^uaKcs are tauicht by a practical, scientifti^ and philoIo;;ical method, with especial refercn<;e in the individual capabilities and rc«iuircment3 of each ptjpil. In the sciences, some de- partments of the Cohnnbus School act- ually inchxle tin- whole curriculum of the leacfinp Universities. The departments are arranjred as follows; I. .Modern Lan- guages—French, Cicrman, Italian and Spanish. II. Ancient Lantjuages — Latin and Greek. III. Homance, I'hiloloj^. IV. Literature of all of these Lanf;uaj;es. V. S«-iences, mathematics, chemistry, natural j)hilosoj)hy anil descrijjtive a.s- tronomy. VI. Preparatory department, for fittintr students for CoHci^cs and Scientilic Schools. Professor Veneziani's experience as l><)ctor of I'hilosophy of thcfrreat Uostse who attend the sessiims of the school can keep their lodgings in the city if thev tlo not care to remain in Concord over night. The idea of the establish- ment of this school occurred to its jirin- cipal founder, the distinguished \. iJron- son Alcott, iLS early a.s 1S4-, and, some Knglish friends co-oj>crating wiih liir.i, he lM>gan the formation of a lilirarj- of }iliilosoi)hic works in that year. The o"pen- ing of the school, however, was delaved until the year ls7".». It re. Cheney, William T. Harris, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, Cyrus A. Bartol, Francis B. Sanborn, l>avid A.

The aim of the Faculty h:is been to bring togi'ther a few of those ])crsons, who, in America, liavc i)ursued, or desire to ]>nr- Bue, the paths of speculative philosojiliv; to encourage these students and profes.s- ors to conjmunicate with each other on what they have learned or meditated; and to illustrate, by a constant reference to poetry and the higher literature, thf)se ideas which ])hilosophy jtresents."

This celebrated Art School is established in a commodious, finely-located building, es- pecially designed for it. The studios are of good size, well lighted and ventilated, and furnished with every convenience. The success of this school has thus far been simply phenomenal in the history of similar institutions in this or any other counti-y. Taking the famous Academic Julian, of Paris, as a model, the Cowles School seeks to give art students such advantages as are particularly and pecul- iarly valuable, and in addition to the de- sign of giving a continuous and thorough training in art, the school has a purpose to meet, in a wholesome way, the needs of a considerable number of earnest students who are not able to attend for long periods at a time, or who have been obliged to gain their instruction in an irregular and unequal manner, and retjuire the making up of deficiencies in special lines of study, or of those who need some instruction to better fit them for special work, as a means of livelihood. The practical fea- tures of the arrangements of the school are as worthy of commendation as are its artistic phases. One mission of this school — according to the prospectus — is •' to aid in diffusing some correct knowl- edge of art among those who study it as a recreation, and who, without the privi- lege, which the school gives, of consulting their convenience as to the time of at- tendance, or without having its ojjpor- tunities suit edfo*/ heir mcav ft, wnn](\ne\er receive that education — even if limited— of their natural taste, which tends to elevate the general appreciation of good Art. An arrangement is made by w^hich students who are compelled to attend irregularly may do so." The school is under the management of Frank M. Cowles, one of the most thorough, con- scientious and able conservators of art in the United States, to whose friendly en- couragement many a successful artist is willing to bear grateful testimony. We can ourselves vouch for the almost mar- vellous progress of several pui)ils under his direction, having witnessed their gradual, but constant improvement, and listened to their praise of his painstaking kindness. The Faculty of this great school, which is recognized not only throughout America, but in Europe as well, as a model one, includes Dennis Miller Bunker (drawing and painting the figure and head, from the flat, cast and life, artistic anatomy and composition), Abbott F. Graves (])ainting flowers and still life), Mercy A. Bailey (drawing, paint- inji;, water colors and perspective), Fred- erick M. Turnbull, M. D. (lectures and demonstrations of artistic anatomy); J. Harvey Young, Edgar Parker and Henry Hitchings (visitors), Frank M. Cowles (manager). Tuition: for regular course, 2 lessons from one teacher, use of studio, models, all day, for 5 days in each week, 1st month, $15. Reductions are made to continuous students. For season, 35 weeks, $100 for new student. Special students, 5 lessons, $8; 9 lessons, $14. Saturday classes, 1 lesson, $2; per month, $6. Evening classes, $8 per month.

( CoJleqe for Wo- men). (1870). Cambridge. The Society for the Collegiate Instruction of Women by Professors and other instructors of Harvard University, has established in Greenough House, Garden St., over- looking Cambridge Common, America's Great College for Women. It is placed far beyond all other existing schools for the gentler sex, not only oii account of the extremely high standard adopted by its Board of Management, but also by reason of its unique advantage in having instruction given by eminent Professors of the foremost University on the con- tinent, in addition to many Instructors of the same institution, comprising a Faculty of nearly fifty of the leading educators of the land. The President of the Society for the Collegiate Instruction of Women, under whose auspices the Harvard Annex has been steadily prosper- ous, is Mrs. Louis Agassiz. Arthur Gilmau is Secretary (5 Waterhouse st., Cambridge); the Treasurer being Miss Lillian Hors- ford (27 Craigie St., Cambridge). The Executive Committee include Miss Alice M. Longfellow, James B. Greenough, and Joseph B. Warner. Members of the Corporation are Charles Eliot Norton and Henry L. Higginson. The courses of study include Hebrew; Sanskrit and Comparative Philology; Greek; Latin; English; German; French; Italian; Philosophy; Political Economy; History; Fine Arts;' Music; Mathematics; Physics; Astronomy; Chemistry; Natural History. Candidates should make formal applica- tion for admission to the Secretary, who will furnish blanks for the pur]>ose. Special students who wish to pursue only higher studies, will not be required to pass the regular examinations, pro- vided they satisfy the instructors of their ability to pursue these special studies with advantage. The courses of study given here are similar to those offered at Harvard University, thereby fully realizing, at last, the equal edncafio/i of the sexes. Any student, at the end of her period of study, is entitled to a cer- tificate, stating the studies in which she has passed satisfactory examinations. Any one passing with distinction such examinations as are required for Honors in Harvard University, shall receive a certificate to that effect.

It is superflous to stnte that no School of Music in the world hns a more exalted standard than that main- tained at the Harvard University Musical Department. Under the direction of John Knowles Paine, Avho is universally recognized as Americ^a's foremost native composer, this institution takes rank with the renowned Music Schools of Ber- lin, Leipsic, Stuttgard, Paris, London and other cities of the Old AVorld. Indeed, since its establishment, numbers of stu- dents have attended this school instead of going abroad to study. The courses are in general as follows: For the first course some proficiency in pianoforte or organ playing is required; the third course requires a knowledge of musical notation; the advanced courses are the second, fifth and sixth. Coarse \: The fundamental i^rinciples of the theory of music are embodied in the study of Har- mony, which treats of the different chords in their natural relations and combinations. Richter's Harmony is used as the basis of the instruction, with illustrations and explanations in the class-room. The work will consist chietty of written exercises on figured basses, which will be played over and corrected in the class-room. Before the close of the year well-kno^vn chorals and national airs will be harmonized. Course 2: Counterpoint applies the principles of harmony to the melodious treatment of the several voice parts in combination. The art of musical composition begins })roperly with this course, and is there- fore indispensable to the thorough stu- dent. Richter's Counterpoint is used in teaching this course. The work consists principally of written exercises on given themes, in the following order: cliorals and other melodies harmonized, using passing notes; the different orders in counterpoint in tv/o, three and four voices; double counterpoint in the oc- tave; free imitative counterpoint in two, three and four voices. The simple forms of free composition, organ preludes, songs and part songs, will be composed by the students in this course. Course 3: The History of Music, comprehending the whole field of Musical Art. The gradual development of music from ancient to modern times is traced, giving the liistory of Gregorian church music: the origin and development of the modern scales and counterpoint; the clioral music of the Flemish and Italian masters of the 15th and IGth centuries; history of the opera, cantata, oratorio; instrumental music, with the development of the present classical forms of composition as represented by the great masters; musical instruments, ancient and modern, etc., etc. Vocal and instrumental illustrations are performed in the class-room. In- struction is given in this course in the form of lectures, the following books being recommended for reference: Von Dommer's Musik Geschichte, Ritter's History of Music (2 volumes), Bonavia Hunt's Concise History of Music; Grove's Dictionary of Music. (A full list of w^orks on this subject will be supplied by Professor Paine.) Course, 5 is the most advanced course in strict composition, naturally succeeding courses 1 and 2. Richter's Canon and Fugue is the text- book. The time is mainly occupied in composition of original and given themes, consisting of choral variations, various kinds of canons, and two, three and four- part fugues. Course Q: A knowledge of Musical Form (or them.atic construction) is essential to the thorough understand- ing and appreciation of the works of the great composers, as embodied in their HAY-jrO 05 immortal Svmi>lionios, Overtun's. String (juartt'ts, .*^()ii:itas, etc. Loctiin-s will also Ito ixiwu in this course. Tauer's .Miisirul Forms is used as a text-l»ook. Tlie i»rincii)al instruuiental works of Ilailyn, .Mo/.irt, IJeethovcn, Schuniann, Menilelssohu. an«l others are analyzed. Kach work is played upon the iiianoVorte liv Professor Taine, in the class-room. Tills (Murse re(inires inventive talent and ability to compose in the following forms of frrt' instrumrntal miisii-: rrelude, Etude, Son*; without words, Noeturne, Manh. I'olonaise.

Established to furnish young women who desire to obtain a liberal education such advantages as are en- joyed in institutions of the highest grade. By its charter, the Corporation of Welles- ley College is authorized to confer such honors, degrees and diplomas as are granted or conferred by any University, College or Seminary of learning in this Commonwealth. This great College is far-famed for its extensive curricv;lum; its high educational standard; its health- ful location; its proximity to the literary musical and art centre of ttie continent; its eminent board of instructors; its schools of art, languages, music, cooking; and its various other instructive, elevat- ing and retining features. It is generally conceded that Wellesley College is not surpassed by any similar institution, and, in some important respects, it is un- equalled. It has pupils at present f rcmi nearly every State in the Union, (from Massachusetts, 128; from Kew York State, 80) from Canada, Mexico, England, Turkey and India. Alice E.

The lioston Museum is noted for its production of new plays from foreign authors for the first time on the American stage, as well as for its sumptuous revivals of the standard old and modern English comedies. This theatre has had uninterrupted success for upwards of fifty years, a condition of affairs that cannot be paralleled by the history of any other place of amusement in the United States, if in the world. The wise policy of the house appears to be grounded upon two important factors, namely : Attractions of merit and a mod- erate scale of prices. The simple fact that excellent seats — some of the best in the theatre — can be secured for fifty cents, draws throngs of family parties, of moderate means, Avho probaljly attend the performances here much oftener than they visit any other theatre, if, indeed, they go elsewhere at all; and the placing of the admission fee at thirty-five cents attracts crowds of young men about town who are not made s"o welcome at any other theatre. The Museum is fitted up elegantly and tastefully; the stage is finely equipped; and there is an air of com fort and cosiness, combined with luxury, that makes a performance here extremely enjoyable. This theatre is one of the very few in the country that adheres to the stock company plan, that having been the policy of the house since it's opening, with occasional engagements of stars supported by the stock company.

Opened (as the Novelty Theatre) Dec. 15, 1879, with " Home," played by the stock company; F. H. Butler, Manager. (See Eventful Play bills). This theatre has for several years past been very suc- cessfully managed, combinations of a fair degree of merit having been pre- sented in most cases, and such attractions as "Esmeralda," "The Shaughraun," "Pavements of Paris," etc., with stars including Katherine Rogers, Maud Gran- ger and other favorites, proving powerful magnets, at low prices of admission. Originally called Williams Hall, it was reconstructed into the Novelty Theatre Mr. Butler was followed by R. M. Hooley, who assumed the management at the opening of the season of 1880-1' calling it Hooley's Theatre. Charles H. Thayer was the next manager, restoring the name of the Novelty Theatre.

Managers Hyde & Beh- nian, early in 1886, arranged to construct a Theatre on the site of the Columbia Rink, at 1170 Washington Street, to be devoted to combinations, musical pro- ductions, etc., at reasonable prices of admission. The great success of the Windsor Theatre in playing combinations of a fair degree of merit, undoubtedly attracted the attention of these enter- prising managers to the desirability of this populous and accessible locality as an amusement centre. It will probably not be many years before several other p'laces of amusement will be opened in this Imsy section of the city. AYith the South End, South Boston, Roxbury, Dorchester, Brookline, Milton, Quincy, (and when the AYest Chester Park Bridge is completed, Cambridge, Allston, Arlington, etc.), to draw from, to say nothing of the popula- tion of the city northward and eastward, and the large suburbs in those directions, this quarter of the city will become more and more central every year, especially as the means of rapid transit are im- proved. There are now seventeen lines of street-cars which pass through this portion of AVashington Street. DUD-KEI 91 Dudley Street Opera House.

Boylston st. is rapidly be- coming a business street; hotels, schools, and stores having already threatened the residences well towards Berkeley st. If but a few months' time has been suffi- cient to wholly change the character of this street from Park sq. to Church St., what may not be expected to take place during the next few years ? Business is fast working Back Bay-Avard, rather than South End-ward; Columbus av. is being rapidly converted into a street of manu- factories; and altogether it looks very much as if dwelling-houses were to be pushed farther back year by year. The once fashionable character of a portion of Boylston st. has almost departed, and many of its former residents have sought homes elsewhere. Hotels on this street are as follows: Berkeley (158), Boylston (26), Bristol (231), Brunswick (198), Cluny (233), Kensington (291), Pelham (34), Puri- tan (29), Thorndike (91), Vivian (283), Ver- celli Italian Restaurant (87). Schools : Berkeley, Boston School of Elocution, Chauncy Hall School, French's Commer- cial School, Institute of Technology, etc. As will be seen by the following list of residents, many of the houses are now occupied by physicians : 113 Henry I.

Graham Bell, of Boston Univer- sity, 12 Somerset st. He had a laboratory in Exeter pi., Chauncy st. On Feb. 13, 1877, the first messages'^ever sent by tele- phone were received at the Exeter pi. Laboratory, in Boston, from Prof. Bell, who had gone to Salem, 16 miles out, for that express purpose. His dispatches Avere published Feb.'14(the next morning), the Boston Daily Globe of that date be- ing the first newspaper on record to pub- lish telephone messages. Prof. Dolbear, of Tufts College, College Hill, about this time invented Avhat is knoAvai as the Dol- bear Telephone. The first telephone estab- lished in Boston was the Bell, the for- mation of the American Bell Telephone Company rai)idly bringing the system into general use. « Telephone Tariff to New ^ England Cities and To-virns.

Post-Office and Sub-Treas- ury Buildinsc* Situated on the square bouiulfcl by Post-Office Square, Milk, Devonshire and Water Streets. The principal entrance is from I'ost-Office Square. There are also entrances on Devonshire, Milk and Water Streets. The building, architecturally, is grand and imposing, and is of the Renaissance style, built of granite. Up to the con- struction of this building the Post-Office in Boston has been located in quarters leased by the United States Government for that purpose. During the siege of Boston, 1770, the Post-Office was re- moved to Cambridge, having previously been located on Washington Street, near what is now Cornhill. It has at dilferent periods been located on State Street; in the Old State House ; in Summer Street (corner of Chauncv Street); in Faneuil Hall and in the Old South Church. The present l)uilding was largely che means of arresting the progress of the Great Fire of 1872, not, however, until the flames had damaged the building to the extent of 5*175,000. Traces of the fire are yet to be seen in the stone, although the blocks badly defaced were removed and new ones substituted. Offices are open as follows: Cash- ier's office, rooms 50-51 (from Water st. side) from 9 to 3 ; Superintendent of News- paper and Periodical Postage, payment of Box Rent, 36, main floor (from Water St. side), 9 to 5; Superintendent of Unpaid Postage, (Water st.) 9 to 5; Su- perintendent of Inquiry Room (from Devonshire St.) 9 to 5; Superintendent of Stamp Office, Section 18 (from Devon- shire St.) stamps at wholesale, 8 to 6; retail, 7 a. m. to 9 p. m.

Postal Rates and Conditions. Letters, and all other written matter, whether sealed or unsealed, and all other matter sealed, nailed, sewed, tied, or fastened in any manner, so that it cannot be easily examined, two cents per ounce or fraction thereof. All manuscript matter designed for publication, manu- script music, and manuscript maps, un- less accompanied by proof-sheets or corrected copies thereof, and also draw- ings, plans, and designs, are first-class matter. AVhen only a single copy of a reproduction by any other process than ordinary t\iie, plate, and lithographic printing is offered for mailing, and it does not appear from internal evidence that it is being sent in identical terms to several persons, it is sub.iect to letter rates of postage. All sealed packages, except packages of seeds in ^e^Xed transparent envelopes; all packages seved up except in the case of seeds, where the absence of any other matter can be ascertained by feeling; and all packages in any vay so closed ar/ainst inspection that their contents cannot be fully ascertained without breaking the seal, or without undue delay in openins: the same, are subject to first-class postage. The use of the hand stamp for printing personal communications, as the stamping of a receipt or credit on a bill or account, constitutes the matter first-class. The use of a printed signature to partly written and partly printed papers does not alter their character as first-class matter. Deeds, mortecages, promissory notes, insurance policies, drafts, and 188 POS-INT checks, cancelled or uncancelled, and all matter of the same general character wholly or partially in writing, are sub- ject to first-class rates of postage. Diaries and hank hooks with entries in writing, and autograph albums filled in Avith written signatures or miscellaneous writ- ing, are ftrst-class matter. Written visiting cards, envelopes, and tags with written addresses thereon, are first-class matter. Matter produced by the type- Avriter or caligraph and similar processes is first-class matter and subject to letter rates of postage. Postal Cards. The object of the postal card is to facilitate correspondence and provide for the transmission through the mails, at a reduced rate of postage, of short communications, either printed or written in pencil or ink. They may, therefore, be used for orders, invitations, notices, receipts, acknowledgements, price-lists, and other requirements of business and social life: and the matter desired to be conveyed may be either in writing or in print, or partially in both. In using postal cards, care should be taken not to paste, gum (except an ad- dress tag or label), or attach anything to them, or to write anything on the address side other than the address. They are unmailable as postal cards when these sugsrestions are disregarded, but are mailable as letters when additional stamps are affixed thereto to prepay letter postage, viz., one cent for a single rate, and two cents for each additional rate. Postal cards are issued exclusively by the rost-Office Department, and may be used either for printed or written, or partly printed and partly written, communica- tions. " Postal cards " issued by private parties are subject to letter rates of post- age when they contain any written matter whatever in addition to the date and name of the addressed and of the sender, and the correction of mere typographical errors therein. In getting up such cards, care should be taken not to imitate the cards issued by the Post-Office Depart- ment, or have the words "Postal Card" printed thereon, or they may render themselves liable to prosecution. When any one is annoyed or expects to be annoyed by postal cards sent from any l)articular plncc or from any known per- son, he mav direct the postmaster at the point named to destroy all postal cards addressed to him, or cards from any person named so addressed, and so far as the duties of the post-office permit suffi- cient examination, the postmaster should complv with the request. The same re- quest may he made of the receiving post- master. The direction to the postmaster should be in writing and should be placed on the files of his office. Ne-wspaper Rates. The postage on newspapers is at the rate of one cent for each four ounces or fraction thereof. Foreign Rates. The rates for the countries and i)lat;es which belong to the I'ostal Union, are as follows : Prepayment optional, except for registered articles, but on printed matter and samples post- age must be at least partially prepaid. Letters —5 cents per 15 grammes, a weight very slightly over one half ounce. Post cards — 2 cents each. Printed Mat- ter. — 1 cent for each two ounces or frac- tion. Limit of weight, 4 lbs. 6 oz. Com- mercial Papers (Insurance Documents, Way Bills, Invoices, Papers of Legal Procedure, Manuscripts of works, &c.) — The same as for printed matter, but the lowest charge is 5 cents.

All postmasters at money-order offices are authorized to issue postal notes for sums less than live dollars, payable to bearer at any time within three months from the last day of the month of issue. The fee for a postal note is three cents. Suggestions. Do not address letters " B. H. District." If Boston Highlands is intended use " Roxbury District; " if Bunker Hill is the desired destination use " Charlestown District." Do not place newspapers on the top of the street boxes. The collectors are not required to carry them to the Central Office, the boxes being intended for the reception of letter's o)iIy. Some of the papers and packages left in this careless way are stolen by tramps, who are tempted by the stamps, while others have the stamps washed off and the en- closures ruined by sudden rains, or are blown away. STATUES AND MONUMENTS- Adams Bust. Doric Hall, State House, Beacon Street. A marble bust of Samuel Adams. Adams Statiie. (I88O). Adams Square, at the intersection of "Washing- ton Street, Cornhill and Brattle Street. A bronze statue of Samuel Adams, of Revolutionary fame, by Miss Anne Whitney. Tlie inscriptions on the pedes- tal—of granite— are as follows: SAlVrUEL ADAMS — 1722 — 18U3 — A Patriot. He Organized The Revolution and signed the Declaration of Independence. Governor A True Leader of the People. Erected A. D. 1880. From a Fund bequeathed To the City by Jonathan Phillips. A Statesman Incorruptible and Fearless. This Statue cost $6,856, and was un- veiled July 5, 1880. Adams Statue. Chapel, Mount Auburn, Cambridge. A statue of John Adams, second President of the United States. Andrew Statue. (I87l). Doric Hall, State House, Beacon Street. A fine marble statue of John Albion Andrew, the War Governor of Massachusetts. Thomas Ball was the sculptor, and he succeeded in reproducing the familiar features of Andrew with the utmost fidelitv to nature. It cost $10,000. It was placed here Feb. 14, 1871. In writing of " Our Portrait Statues," George B. Woods said: "It is not only a faithful portraiture — always Mr. Ball's strong point— but there is something better than literal likeness about it— an incorporation into the marble of the noble nature of the man, which is the highest achievement of Art. Altogether the statue moves the spectator to hearty liking; and we feel sure that it will grow into the popular heart as it stands close by where the Governor toiled and thought through five exhausting years surrounded by the tattered flags of the thousands of Massa- chusetts boys, who, like him, gave their utmost effort for nationality and liberty, and many of whom, like him, sealed the sacrifice with death." Aristides Statue. (1849). Louisburg Square, between Pinckney and Mount Vernon Streets. An Italian marble statue of Aristides " the Just," presented by the late Joseph lasigi to the city. Placed here December, 1849. Army and Navy Monument. (1877). Monument (or Flagstaff) Hill, Boston Common. The monument is of granite, in the form of a Doric column, surmounted by a bronze emblematic statue of the Genius of America; at the base are four statues representing re- spectivelv the Soldier, the Sailor, History and Peace. Bas-reliefs in bronze are placed between these statues, represent- ing the Departure of the Regiment, a Naval Action, the Sanitary Commission and the Return from the War and Sur- render of the Battle-Flags to the Gov- ernor at the State House. Portraits of John Albion Andrew, Wendell Phillips, Phillips Brooks, D. D., A. H. Vinton, D. D., Archbishop Williams, Henry W. 100 BAL-BRE Longfellow and others are to be seen in the bas-relief of the Departure of the Regiment, standing upon the steps of the State House, while with the troops are Generals Charles Russell Lowell and Renjamin F. Rutler, Colonels Cass and Shaw. The Sanitary Commission bas- relief has portraits of Alexander H.Rice, James Russell Lowell, Marshall P. Wilder, Ezra 11. (Jannett, 1). D., (ieorge Ticknor, Rev. Edward Everett Hale and others. In the Return from the AVar gnmp is rcprc^sented a regiment halting in front of the State House, with (Jenerals Devens, Bartlett, Banks and Underwood mounted. Upon the steps of the State House are represented Governor Andrew, Charles Sumner, Henry Wilson and others. The monument is 70 feet high. It was the work of Martin Milmore. It cost $75,000. It was dedicated Sept. 17, 1877, the President of the United States and nearly all of his cabinet being present at the ceremf)nies. The ora- tion was pronounced by General Charles Devens. There was a grand pro- cession, with upwards of 30,000 persons — military and civic bodies — in line. The inscription on the monument — written by Charles W. Eliot, President of Har- vard University — is as follows: To The Men of Boston Who Died For their Country On Land and Sea In the War which Kept the Union whole Destroyed Slavery, And Maintained The Constitution, The Grateful City Has Built this Monument That their Example May Speak to . Coming Generations. It may be interesting if not instructive to record here the opinion of Wendell Phillips on this work: "No Ball or Greenough hand ever lifted that proud column Avhich crowns Frogpond Hill (Boston Common); the drapery of its tigur(!S so tlowing and graceful, that, without hiding, it adorns them; costumes and hgures neither violent nor clumsy, but easy, lifelike, natural and suggestive, each telling its own story; no sense of weariness in gazing at them; no drawback on your satisfaction. It has only one peer, that living figure at Concord, so full of life and movement that one fearS \w. shall not see it again if he passes that way the next week. This otherwise per- fect column (the Army and Navy Monu- ment) has one defect, the one I have noticed in every city and toAvn monument raised since the war. For anything these marble records tell, the war might have been, like that of 1812, for 'free trade and sailors' rights,' or for a northeastern boundary. You search in vain through them all for the broken chain or the negro soldier. Milmore has done better than his fellows; for he gives us, in one bas-relief, the stern and earnest face of J. B. Smith, a suggestion welcome and honorable. He should have done more. Perhaps sometime it can be mended, and a broken chain and negro form tell what really saved the Union." Ballou Statue. Mount Auburn, Cambri(li;(>. A tine statue of Rev. Hosea Ballou. ' By Edward A. Brackett, the well-known sculptor. Beethoven Statue. Boston Mu- sic Hall. The majestic statue of Ludwig Von Beethoven, in bronze, on the stage of Music Hall, was the work of Thomas Crawford, an American sculptor, so grateful to the citizens of Boston who gave him a commission for an ideal statue (that of Orpheus, now at the Bos- ton Museum of Fine Arts), that when Charles C. Perkins gave him an order for a bronze statue of Beethoven, Crawford accepted the commission but declined to accei)t any payment whatever for his work. Mr. Perkins therefore paid the expense of casting, founding and ship- ment to Boston, aiid had it placed in its present position. It is a grand statue; in fact, there are few works by American sculptors that equal it. It is greatly ad- mired by all who behold it. Boy and the Eagle. Vestibule of Boston Athenaeum, lOB Beacon Street. Bronze. By Richard S. Greenough. Bowditch Statue. (1847). Mount Auburn, Cambridge. One of the most noted statues in Boston or vicinity is this bronze statue of Nathaniel Bowditch, representing the famous scientist seated, with globe and quadrant at his feet, holding a book. It was designed by Ball Hughes, and was cast in Boston. It at- tracts great attention from visitors to Boston, who pronounce it a fine work of art. Bowditch Statue. Vestibule of Boston Athenneum, lOB Beacon Street. Statue of Nathaniel Bowditch, the cele- brated writer on navigation. (Cast.) Bre-wer Fountain. (1868). A ])eautiful bronze fountain placed on the Common, near Park Street, in 1808. It was the gift of the late Gardner Brewer. At the base are figures of Neptune, Am- phitrite, Acis and G.'datea. Li^nard, the eminent French artist, made the design, which received a gold medal at the Paris Exposition of 1855. BRI-ETH 191 Brighton Soldiers' Monu- ment. (1866). Evergreen Cemetery, Brighton District. Dedicated July 26, 1866. It is of granite, and is 30 feet high. The cost was ,'j<5,000. Rev. F. A. Whitney delivered the dedicatory oration. Bunker Hill Monument. (1843). This obelisk of granite, so conspicuous a land mark for many miles around Boston, was erected upon Bunker Hill, in the Charlestown District, to commemorate the tirst great battle of the American Revolution, which was foixght here, June 17, 1775, when 4,000 British troops and 3,000 Ameiieans (commanded by Prescott, Futnam and AVarien), for four or five hours hotly contested the possession of the breastM orks erected by the American troops during the previous night. The monument is 220 feet high. The corner- stone was laid by Lafayette. Fairs, sub- scriptions and other means were applied toward raising funds for its completion, Fanny Ellsler, the celebrated dancer, contributing liberally. On June 17, lb43, Daniel Webster (who had made the ad- dress at the laying of the corner-stone by Lafayette), delivered the dedicatory ora- tion, in the presence of John Tyler, the President of the United States, and his entire cabinet. (Webster was then Sec- retary of State). A historical writer says rf the impressive event: "Webster was himself that day, and his apostrophe to the gigantic sliaft was as grand and noble as the subject was lofty and sub- lime. Waving his hand toward the towering structure he said: ^The ijoicer- ful speaker stands motionless before vs I ' He was himself deeply moved. The sight of such an innuense sea of upturned faces— he had never before addressed such a multitude— he afterwards spoke of as awful and oppressive. The ap- plause from a hundred thousand throats surged in great waves around the orator, completing, in his mind, the parallel of Old Ocean." (To reach Bunker Hill take Charlestown street-cars from Cornhill, Scollay Square). Ceres Statue. (1865). Surmount- ing Horticultural Hall, at 100 Tremont Street, is a fine granite statue, represent- ing Ceres, from the hand of the late Martin Milmore. The strength and free- dom of the figure are supremely artistic. Charlestown Soldiers and Sailors' Monument. (1872). Win- throp Square, Charlestown District. Martin Milmore was the designer. Erected on what was in colonial times the training-ground of the militia. On a pedestal are three figures, one — the ideal Genius of America— crowning the soldier and sailor Avith laurel wreaths. It was here that the Fifth Maryland Regiment- coming to Boston to participate in the celebration of the centennial anniversary of the Battle of Bunker Hill, June 17, 1875, marched, and without any escort or an- nouncement of their intention, placed upon this monument a most elaborate and beautiful floral shield, inscribed: - maryla^■t>'s Tribute To Massachusetts, their band playing a dirge, while the regiment stood around the monument, forming three sides of a square. This tribute was really the first demonstration of Southern troops in honoring the mem- ory of the Northern heroes of the Rebel- lion, and the beautiful ceremony is still warmly remembered and cherished by the people of Boston, who honor the soldiers of the Fifth Maryland Regiment for so graceful and magnanimous an ex- pression of good-will. No political dema- gogues can destroy a friendship between the people of the North and South that is based upon such noble and generous im- pulses as those from which sprang the execution of the act here recorded, Columbus Statue. (1849). Louis- burg Square, between Mount Vernon and Pinckney Streets. A statue of Christo- pher Columbus, in Italian marble. Pre- sented to the city by the late Joseph lasigi. Dorchester Soldiers' Monu- ment. a867). Mee ting-House Hill, Dorchester District. A granite obelisk, 31 feet high, resting ui^on a ledge. Tab- lets, giving the names of the soldiers of Dorchester who fell in the War of the Rebellion, are upon its base. B. F. Dwight was the architect. Rev. Chas. A. Humphreys delivered the oration on the occasion of its dedication, Sept. 17, 1867. Emancipation Group. (1879). In Park Square, Dec. 0, 1879, there wais unveiled a bronze grou]) of statuary, rep- resenting Abraham Lincoln standing over a prostrate freedman with his shackles broken. On the pedestal is in- scribed Emakcipation. On the base are the following words : - A Race Set Free - - And the Couktry at Peace - - LI^coLN - - Rests from His labors - The group, costing ^17,000, was the gift of Moses Kimball. Mayor F. O. Prince delivered the dedicatory oration. Ether Monument. (1868). The monument erected in 18C8 on the Public Garden, near Arlington Street, was the gift to the city of Thomas Lee. It is of granite and red marble, and the two ideal figures surmounting the shaft represent the Good Samaritan and the sufferer. The inscriptions are as follows: 192 EVE-GLO To Commemorate The Discovery That the Inhaling OF Ether causes Insensibility to Pain First Proved To the World AT the Mass. General Hospital IN Boston, October, A. D. MDCCCXLVI. "Neither Shall There Be Any More Pain "—Revelation. In Gratitude For the relief Of Human Suffering By the Inhaling of Ether A Citizen of Boston Has Erected This Monument. A. D. MDCCCLXVII. ' This Also Cometh Forth From the Lord of Hosts Which is AVonderful IN Counsel AND Excellent In Working." — Isaiah. The celebrated sculptor, Truman H. Bartlett, says of this statue : " It produces an excellent effect as a whole." The large number of visitors proves that the work is interesting in itself, as well as for the important discovery it commemo- rates, the illustration of the parable ap- pealing to the sentiment of all. Everett Statue. (18G7). Public Garden, near Beacon Street. This statue, in bronze, by William W. Story, was un- veiled November, 18G7. It has the merit of bearing the closest resemblance to Everett in features, although the pose has been severely criticised. It is said that the right arm was placed in an up- right position at the wish of the com- mittee having in charge the work of having it designed, and against the desire of the artist. Bartlett says of it: " It is the only portrait-statue in Boston that has a defined and undistracted intention as the basis and structure of its com- position." Wendell Phillips wrote of this celebrated statue as follows: "And so we come in our walk to Everett, in trousers too large for him, and a frock- coat which he has slightly outgrown. It requires consummate genius to manage the modern costume. But this figure also seems toppling over backwards, as, with more energy than P^verett ever showed in his lifetime, he exclaims, ' Tliat is the road to Brkihton ! ' pointing with lifted arm and wide-spread fingers to that centre of beef and the races. Story's friends say he never lifted that weary arm, but yielded to a committee's urging, as no true artist ever should do." Flora Statue. (18G5). An ideal statue of Flora, by Martin Milmore, in granite, ornaments the facade of the Building of the Massachusetts Horti(;ul- tural Society, at the corner of Tremont and Bromtield Streets. Franklin Statue. (185G). City Hall Yard, School Street. This, the first statue to be placed in the public squares and parks of the city, was unveiled Sept. 17, 185G. Richard S. Greenough, the famous Boston artist, was its designer. Upon the sides of the pedestal are bas- reliefs illustrating events in Franklin's career. Bartlett considers the p o s e " happy, human and effective." Wendell Phillips, however, thought it represented a '■'■ dilapidated roue!" This statue (whatever may be its artistic shortcom- ings) owing to its proximity to one of the most largely-travelled thoroughfares in the city, is almost constantly an ob- ject of great interest to numbers of per- sons, and it is seldom that it is not surrounded by a score of strangers. Garrison Statue. (1886). A bronze Statue of William Lloyd Garrison, the famous anti-slavery agitator of Boston, was placed on the Commonwealth Avenue Parkway, May 13, 188G, without any for- mal services. It stands between Dart- mouth and Exeter Streets, in front of the Hotel Vendome. The statue is of colossal size, and represents Garrison seated in his chair, his head turned slightly to the right, and uncovered. In his rig'ht hand are some sheets of manuscript. The face is a good likeness of the celebrated re- former, the pose is easy, and the work is strong, simple and natural. It is the largest piece of casting ever done in America in one piece, the weight being 2G00 pounds. The inscriptions are as fol- lows: William Lloyd Garrison.' 1805 — 1879 I am in Earnest— I will not Equivocate — I will not Excuse — I WILL NOT Retreat a single Inch, AND I Will be Heard. My Country is the World; My Countrymen are ALL Mankind. Glover Statue. (1875), standing on the Commonwealth Avenue Parkway is the celebrated John Glover statue, which has attracted so nuich attention from those interested in sculpture. It is of bronze, and the artist, Martin Mil- more, has here exhibited to the fullest extent his disregard of old traditions and ventured upon new ground in his strong and heroic treatment. Gen.

The cost of the statue was defrayed by a subscrip- tion of the teachers and children of the public schools of the State, who presented it to the Commonwealth in 18!J5. The dedication addresses were made by Samuel Ct, Howe, John A. Andrew and others. Criticism on this statue is at variance, Truman Bartlett thinks " There is a great deal of earnest thought and work in the execution," Arthur Dexter considers it " a mass of bad drapery."

Througli the efforts of Charles Sumner asumof'money Avas subscribed and sent to Thomas Crawford, then a needy and struggling American artist at Rome, witli a commis- sion for the Orpheus. It was the fi;st encouraging liand held out to the young artist, and he Iteenly appreciated it.

The Orpheus statue was purchased in 1844. Otis Statue. Chapel, Mount Au- burn, Cambridge. A statue of James Otis, the patriot. Pomona Statue. (18G5).

Quincy Statue. (1879). City Hall Enclosure, School Street. By Thomas Ball. A bronze statue of Josiah Quincy, second Mayor of Boston (1823), and oiie of the most progressive men the city has ever possessed. It was OAving to his en- terprise that Quincy Market was estab- lished, and many other improvements had their inception in his far-seeing mind. Had all ol his suggestions been carried out, Boston would have been a far hand- somer city even than it is to-day. It was his wish to have laid out a wide avenue from Roxbury Neck to Chelsea Ferry, Avhich would have been the Washington Street, instead of the narrow, crooked thoroughfare in which people, cars and cabs to-day get almost hopelessly and inextricably " blocked " at nearly every hour of the day; and what is to be done there in ten years from now in the way of transit nobody will daie to predict, unless the method of London is followed. Quincy foresaw that Boston was to be- come a great metropolis, and endeavored to make others realize it, but he could not break the shell of ccmservatisra which has always enclosed Boston, and wliich still impedes its natural progress. This line statue portrays the able Mayor at his best, and represents him at a time when he said, in his inaugural address: "The destinies of the City of Boston are of a nature too plain to be denied or mis- conceived. The prognostics of its future greatness are written on the face of Nature too legibly and too indelibly to be mistaken. The indications are ajparent from the location of our city, fiom its harbor, and its relative position among rival towns and cities; above all from the character of its inhabitants, and the singular degree of enterprise and in- telligence wliich are diffused through every class of its citizens." Roxbury Soldiers' Monu- ment. (lS(i7). Forest Hills Cemetery. A bmnze statue; the work of Martin Millmore. It was cast at Chicopee. Soldiers' Monument. Mount Ho]ie Cemetery. Erected by the City of Boston to conimemerate the services of her fallen heroes. Sphinx. Mount Auburn, Cambriflge. One of the greatest works of one of 12os- ton's famous sculptors, the late Martin Milinore, and one that will, of itself, long perpetuate his name, is the widelj'-cele- brated Sphinx, placed in Mount Auburn. Directly in front of the Chapel, it stands as a permanent memorial of the War of the Rebellion. A writer has said: " It is an Egyptian symbol of might and intel- ligence combined; but, in its human features, modern or American, not brood- ing on Death, but looking forward to the larger life." Its inscriirtion is: American Union Preserved: African Slaverv Destroyed By the Uprisino of A Great People; By the Blood of Fallen Heroes. Story Statue. Chapel, Mount Auburn, Cambridge. A marble statue of Josei)h Story, the eminent jurist, de- signed and executed by his son. In a sitting position, the left hand holding a book, and the right hand slightly raised. SUM-WAS 105 Sumner Bust. Doric Hall, State House, Beacon Stieet. A bust of the late Charles Suiuuer. Sumner Statue. (1878). ruWic Garden, near Ikiyis^ton Street, oi)i)()site Church Street. This statue, of bronze, by Thomas Ball, was placed here Dec. 23, 1878. Its cost was yl5,000. Anicnig- the artists who competed for the three iirizesof .^500 each were Thomas Ball, Anne Whitney and Martin Milmore, each receiving- one, and the design of jMr. Ball was selected as that most pleasing to the committee hav- ing in charge the erection of the statue. Wendell Phillips had his fling at this statue, but his " criticism " was so hasty and so mucu overdrawn that it had the effect of creating symi;athy and fair treatment for the artist and of acting as a boomerang on the writer: '"If this bronze pyramid on Boylston Street be a cask macle of staves, "^ why is it set on human legs? and if it is really Sumner, why do his chest and shoulders rise out of a barrel ? Is his broadcloth new felt, too stiff for folds, or is he dressed in shoe-leather? That matters little, how- ever. But no angry Southerner would have needed to sniite those overfed cheeks, which may have faced many a snowstorm on the locomotive, or many a Northeaster on our coast, but surely must have been far too innocent of thought and passion ever to anger senates or r )use nations to war." Eminent Euro- pean cities have highly praisetl this statue. Venui Statue. On the Public Gardni, neir the Arlington Sti'eet en- trance, fcom Commonwealth Avenue Parkway, is a marble statue of Venus, — so:netim^s called " The Maid-of-the- Misf — standing in one of the fcmntain- basins near the equestrian statue of Washington. When the water is let into the fountain a shower of spray is made to fall upon the pretty statue, making a very pleasing effect. On summer days it is quite a centre of attractions to* the throngs of people who visit this great pleasure garden. Washington Equestrian Sta- tue. (ISlW). Public (harden, facing the Arlington Street entrance, opposite the Commonwealth Avenue Parkway. Among the earliest promoters of the movement to erect this statue, which is said by competent art critics to be the n!o^t artistic work of the kind on the conti- nent, was William Willard, the eminent portrait painter. Robert C. Wintlirop handed over the proceeds of an oration nt lioston Music Hall, as a contribution to the fund, in 1853; the citv donateil ;i;iO,000; a great fair was held in aid of the project, and the balance remaining aft^'r the purchase of the Everett statue— $5,000— beiUj;- added, the sum was ami^le for its cost. The commission for its ex- Cijution was given to Thomas Ball, Bos- ton's famous sculptor, in 1859, and on July 3, 1869, it was unveiled to the gaze of aelessness. It is Horace Mann, waked up so suddenly that in his hurry he has brought half his bed-clothes clingingto his legs and arms." It is easy to ridicule, and the greater the work, the more strong and original the thought, the more easily may a critic who h;>s no ])r:ictical knowiedge of the art, call the attention of the public to what seems al'surd, but what is often an atteuipt on the ]>art of the artist to get out of the beuteii track. W^est Rcxbury Soldiers' Monainent. (1871). Corner of Cen- tre and South Streets, Jamaica Plain, West Boxbury District. A Gothic mon- ument of granite, designed by W. AV.

No City in America compares with Boston in tlie number, extent and value of its i)ublic and private libraries. Upon meeting frequently in Boston a gentle- man of literary taste, a resident of New York, we asked him why he came to Boston so often. His reply was: " Bos- ton's great libraries bring' me liere. I c: nnot find the works I desire to con- sult in any other libraries in the Unit* d States. The people of Boston cannot fully realizf what a grand treasure-house of lie rtiiro they possess in tlie Public Libraiy, and the great Free Libraiy of Harvard University has a completeness and system that is amazing to a New "Vorkt r, accustomed to meagre facilities in this directi >ii. lean now easily con.- preliend why tlie peoj)le of Boston and vicinity are endowed with a more gen- eral air of culture than other comu^iuni- ti 'S, and the reason is obvious why Bos- ton has become the seat of so many great educational institutions. CoUegts and libraries are usually to be found in jux- taposition, and in "both of these educa- tors Boston is immeasurably in advance of the rest of the United States," the largest and most complete collection of Shakspearian literature, l-,000 vol- umes), ana numerous others. Donations in money and bequests liave been ex- tremely large. Joshua Bates gave 5=50,- Oua in cash (and .*50,000 worth of books); Jonathan Phillips, ??30,000; Abbott Law- rence, .slO,000, and others have been gen- erous in their gifts. The li. rary, in 18M, was opened in Mason Street. In 1858 it was removed to its present bui iling, wliicli cost to construct neaily .'<400,000. On the lower floor are a distributing room, tlie lower library-room, two free reading-rooms and an art ga.lery; on the second floor is the lar,ge and elegant room devoted mainly to the reference librarv, named Bates Hall, in compliment to Joshua Batos, one of its most liber..! donors. In the reading-room on the lower floor one may consult almost any magazine or pr-riodical i)ul)lished abroad or at home. Books in Bates Hall nuiy be read within the building by any one, while for the privilege of taking vol- umes home it is simply necessary for any resident of Boston al)ove the age of IG to subscribe to certain reasonable rules.

REA 211 REAL BOSTON, The Actual Boston of to-day is by no means to be measured by the pop- ulation crowded within the circumscribt d area of tlie city limits. Thousands upon thousands of * people transacting liusi- ness in Boston — or closely identified with its vast real-estate, railway, com- mercial, hotel, club, theatrical, bankinc^, school, stock, telegraph, lilTary, mu'^i- cal, literary, artistic, social and multi- tudinous other interests — reside, or, at least, pass the night, in the numerous cities, towns and villages within a radius of twenty-five miles from the heart of the city. All of these great suburbs are within easy access by steam-railways, street-cars, etc., and —as rapid transit is now one of the foremost issues of the day in Boston -the time required for reaching these environs (which is even now quite brief) will be lessened more or less year by year. In order to substanti- ate the claims of Boston to a really very large population, as far as all pnictical identification of interests and other con- ditions are concerned, — of over a iiiil- Vion of people (and of half a million within her borders and in her immediate suburbs) the following list of cities and towns within this radius, with their pop- ulation, is given, in order that one m;iy judge correctly of the great importance of the metropolis of New England as a commercial, business, railway, steam- ship, hotel and theatrical centre: City or town.

The better direction for pedes- trians, 'cyclists and djivers of caxTiages is out over Beacon Street and tlie Mill- dam, through Longwood, another charm- ing suburb. Street-cars m;ty be taken on Tremont Street, at the head of Bromfield Street, furnishing in the summer, when oj)en cars are run, one of the most attrac- tive excursions possible for the trifling expenditure of ten cents for the round trip. Chelsea. 4 miles. Here is a flour- ishing city. Reached bv ferrv from foot of Hanover Street, by ferry from Atlan- tic Avenue (Boston & Revere Beach Railway), by street-cars of the Lynn and Boston horse-rail wav, or bv street-cars via East Boston ferry. The famous Lowe Tile-Works and the celebrated Chelsea Potteries are here. On Fowderhorn Hill is the Soldiers' Home. The United States Naval Hospital is also located here. An elegant theatre, the Academy of Music, is successfully conducted by Managtr J. B. Field. The Soldiers' Monument is ■well worthy of a visit. Chestnut Hill Reservoir and Park. One of the most beautiful drives, walks or bicycle routes out of Boston is the avenue (Beacon Street) from the Milldam to Chestnut Hill Park, where the great Reservoir of the city is located. The distance is about five miks, and the entire length is bor- dered by grand old country mansions surrounded by fine old trees and lawns, amid hills and dales. This whole picturesque district more closely resem-. bles an English landscape than any section of country to be found in America. Many Queen Anne cottages pet p through the foliage, the closely-shaven lawns, and beds of beautiful flowers, the well-kept roads, etc., combine to complete the great natural resemblance to "the green lanes of England." Foreigners are sure to note the similarity, and with surprise, espe- cially when they catch a glimjjse of " the winding Charles," which they liken to England's beautiful Thames. The road to Chestnut Hill is the most fashionable diive in New England, the horses and carriages to be found there on any pleasant afternoon indicating by their numbers and expensiveness the great wealth of their owners, the merchant princes of Boston. Equestrians are also to be seen here somewhat numerously, although many of them make detours by way of bridle-paths and lanes leading from the main road. The grounds about the Reservoir are laid out as a park, and in summer are very attractive. The Reservoir is one of the " siglits " of the suburbs. It has an area of 125 acres, has a capacity of about 800,000,000 gallons, and is two and a half miles in circumference. (This is one of the most popular bicycle routes.) Concord. 19 miles from Boston. Fitchburg Railway. Also, Boston & Lowell Railway. Tourists cannot fail to - find most attractive objects of historical and literary interest in this picturesque old town. Here lived Nathaniel Haw- thorne (in a hov.se now standing about a mile from the Common); Thoreau and Emerson. Here is the summer home of Louise Alcott, in the hovise once occu- pied bv Thoreau. On the shore of Lake Walden, one of the most beautiful sheets of water in New England, is a pile of stones marking the spot where was located the hut in w-hich Thoreau lived for some time. The Summer School of Philosophy attracts many persons from various sections of the United States and Canada to Concord. This school is held in a chapel, which is particularly well adapted for the ]iurpose. Near the Old Manse is "the rude liridge that arched the flood," the Concord monument, and the ?r4 DAN-LEX graves of the British soldiers who fell in the memorable battle of April 19, 1775. In the Unitarian riiurch building, near the Wright Tavern, the first Provincial Congress was held. The Concord Library, at the junction of Sudbury and JMain Streets, is a valuable collection of books. The Davis Museum of relics is in the Ol d Court House. Thoreau, in his " VValden," desciibes the lake as follovi's: "It is so remarkable for its dejjth and purity as to merit a particular description. It is a clear and deep green well, half a mile long and a mile and three-quarters in circumfertnce; it cont:;ins about sixty- one and a half acres; a perennial spring in the midst of pine and oak woods with- out any visible inlet or outlet, except ly the clouds and evaporation. The sui- lounding hills rise al ruptly from the wfter to the height of forty to eighty feet, bting exclusively woodland. The water is so transi)arent that the bottom can easily 1 e discerned at the depth of twenty-five or thirty feet." At the com- pletion of the Concord Monument, April 1! th, 183G, a hymn Avritten by Emerson, entitled " Concord Fight," was sung. The following is the first stanza: "By the rude bridge that arched the flood Iheir fiag to Ajti-il's breeze unfurled. Here once the embattled farmers stood And fi.cd the shot heard round the world." Hawthorne wrote in his note-book: " The scenery of Concord, as I beheld it from the summit of the hill, has no very mark- ed characteristics, but has a good' deal of quiet beauty in keeping M'itli the river. There are b'oad and peaceful meadows, which I think are among the most satis- fying objects in natural scenery. The heait rei)oses on them with a feeling that few things else can give, because almost all other objects are abrupt and clearly defined; but a meadow stretches out like a small infinity, yet with a secure homeli- ness, which we do not find either in an expanse of water or air. The hills which border these meadows are wide swells of land, or long and gradual ridges, some of them densely covered with wood." Em- erson wrote : " Because I was content with these poor fields, Low, open meads, slender and sluggish streams. And found a home in haunts which others scorned, The partial woodgods overpaid my love And granted me the freedom of their state. ***** And through my rocklike, solitary wont Shot million rays of thought and tender- ness." In the jirincipal cemetery of the town arc the graves of Emerson, Thoreau and Hawthorne. Danvers. (Salem Village of 1C92.) 20 miles from Boston, on Boston & Maine Bail way. This was the scene of the no- torious witchcraft delusion, which exhib- ited the ignorance and superstition of the people of that place and period. Danvers is a i)leasant town. Here is the Peabody library, which, like the Peabody Institute at Peabody— once a portion of Danveis— was established through the munificK^nce of Get)rge Peabody, the London banker, who was born in Peabody (South Danvers), In Danvers is still standing the house in which Gen. Israel Putnam, " Old Put." was born, Ipswich. 2G miles from Boston, on the Eastern Division of the Boston and Maine Railway, is one of the most beau- tifully located towns in New England. Its great, productive farms, its old man- sions, and its general thrift tempt many a Boston merchant prince to seek a summer home within its beautiful and recreative domain. Jamaica Plain. One of the out- lying Districts of Boston (West Roxbury) 3.^ miles from State Street, on the Boston & Providence Railway, It was named iu honor of Cromwell's conquest of the island of Jamaica from Spain. It was originally known as Pond Plain, from the famous beautiful pond within its limits, covering 70 acres and having a depth in places of from 60 to 70 feet. It is one of the most attractive sections of the city, having broad avenues lined with fine old trees, and has been a favoiite location for summer residences since the days of Hancock, Bowdoin and other Governors and distinguished men who formerly re- sided here amid great pomp and ceremony. (.John Hancock used to ride from his country-seat here to his town mansion, his equipage being princely, and pre- ceded and followed by a body-guard of mounted soldiers fifty in liumber, with diawn sabres, as an illustration of republican simplicity, probably!) In this District are located the famous Bus- sey Institute and Arnold Arboretum, (see Colleges and Scl>ools);the Adams Nervine Asvliim; the West Roxbury Soldiers' Monument (dedicated Sept. 14, 1871); the Allandale Springs, a place of resort of great and rapidly-growing popularity; Curtis Hall; and various other objects of interest. (In the summer open ears aro run on the street-railway to Jamai:3a Plain, starting from the head of Bror.i- field St., forming a very pleasant means of communication, and,"^ during a portion of the route, passing many fine estates, with grand mansions, well-kept lawns, etc. The roads will be found good for bicycle-riding). liezin^ton. ll miles from Boston. Bostim ,S: Lowell Railway. (Bicyclists will find the route by way of the Mill LYN-MAN 225 dam, Brighton Avenue, Harvard Square, I'orter Station, Arlington, a good one). Tlie poet Whittier thus sings of the Lex- ington of olden days: (1775). " No Berserk thirst of blood had they, No hattle-joy was theirs, who set Against the alien bayonet Their homespun breasts in that old day. Their feet had trodden peaceful ways; They loved not strife, they dreaded pain, They saw not — what to us is plain — That God would make man's wrath his praise. ***** Swift as their summons came they left The plow mid-furrow standing still, The half-ground corn grist in the mill. The spade in earth, the axe in cleft. ***** Of man for man the sacrifice, All that was theirs to give they gave. The flowers that blossomed from their grave Have sown themselves beneath all skies." liynn. 12 miles, on the Eastern divis- ion of the Boston & Maine Railway. A great shoe-manufacturing centre. One of the most thriving cities in Massachu- setts. It has many points of interest to strangers, among them its Beaches, Dun- geon Rock (or Pirates' Cave), High Rock, etc. Here was formerly the abode of Moll Pitclier,the celebrated fortune-teller, whose habitation was near the base of High Rock. About sixty years ago she attracted many people from far and near — largely sea-going persons — who de- sired her aid in looking into futurity. Her full name was Mary Dimond Pitcher. She died in 1813, aged 75 years. She has been described as having been connected with some of the best families of Essex County, and has respected descendants now liVing in the vicinity of Boston. In 1832, John Greeuleaf Whittier wrote a poem relating to her, from which we make the following excerpt : " She stood upon a bare, tall crag Which overlooked her rugged cot, — A wasted, gray and meagre hag. In features evil as her lot. She had the crooked nose of a witch, And a crooked back and chin, And in her gait she had a hitch. And in her hand she carried a switch To aid her work of sin." High rock is the name given to an eleva- tion which commands a fine view of the city and surrounding country, as well as of the sea. From Elizabeth F. Merrill's poem, " High Rock," we transcribe the f ollov/ing lines : " AVhen the tide comes in on a sunny day You can see the waves beat back in spray From the splintered spurs of Phillips Head, Or tripping along with dainty tread, As of a million dancing feet Shake out the light in a quick retreat Or along the smooth curve of the beach SnoAvy aud curling, in long lines reach An islet, anchored and held to land By a glistening, foam-fringed ribbon of sand; That is Nahant, and that hoary ledge To the left is Egg Rock, like a blunted wedge Cleaving the restles§ ocean's breast. And bearing the lighthouse on its crest." Dungeon Rock is noted as having been the retreat of pirates in days gone by. There is a tradition that Captain Kidd buried some of his treasure here. The huge rock is in a wild and picturesquely beautiful region, although a good car- riage-road has been constructed to it from the city lying below. For many years, under " spiritual " guidance, exca- vations were continuously, slowly and laboriously made in expectation of dis- covering buried treasure, by Mr. Marble and his son, both of whom passed away without realizing their hopes. Descent into the dark, winding stairway, cut from the solid rock, may be made by the visitor upon payment of a small fee. Since the death of the zealous and in- dustrious men who doubtless sacrificed their lives in toiling in the damp, un- wholesome cavern, work upon the exca- vation has been entirely suspended. Maiden is a thriving and very pretty suburb, 5 miles out, on the Boston & Maine Railway. Here is the studio and home of the famous American artist, George Loring Brown, whose paintings embellish so many elegant residences. There is a very old burial-ground here, known as the Sandy Creek or Bell Rock Cemeterj', and was used for purposes of interment as early as 1650. The following is copied from the oldest stone: Alice Brackenbuby, Wife of AVm. B. Brackenbuby. Aged 70 years. Died December 28, 1670. Here also was buried Rev. Michael Wigglesworth, noted as the author of " The Day of Doom," a poem. Manchester - by - the - Sea. 24 miles from Boston. Eastern Railway. This is one of the most picturesque and romantic spots along the entire New Eng- land Coast. The roads are excellent, and one can find every description of drives. There are roads through the open coun- try, along hillsides, through the woods or by the sea. Here is the famed singing beach. Manchester has for many years been the summer home of a noted colony of theatrical people, among them Mrs. Agnes Booth (Schoeflfel), Mrs. D. P. Bow- ers, John Gilbert, Joseph Proctor, John B. Schoeffel, and others. Here is located the celebrated Masconomo House, a fav- 226 MAR-QUI orite resort of Bostonians, New Yorkers, I'hihKk^lpliians, and others from the south and west, during the summer months, the cool, clear air of this region being ex- tremely beneficial to those exhausted by over-work or illness. Rev. Dr. Bartol, the eminent Boston clergyman, has done much toward developing the resources of this beautiful town. It was called Manchester-by-the-Sea in order to distin- guish it from Manchaster, N. H. Marblehead. 17 miles. (Eastern Railway to Salem, then Marblehead Branch.) This is the quaintest old seaport town imaginable. When the celebrated Whitefield visited Marblehead and saw scarcely anything but bare rocks, he asked in amazement, " Where do they bury their dead?" Here is yet standing the old Bank Building, built in 1768, and there are a number of other curious old ante- Revolutionary houses. Old Fort Sewall is an interesting feature of the locality. Milton. G miles. This is one of Bos- ton's most beautiful suburbs. It is easily reached by way of the Old Colony Rail- way (trains running both ways sixteen times daily), or by street cars from the head of Franklin s'treet, corner of Wash- ington street. The roads are good for bicycles. (Milton was a portion of Suf- folk County, previous to 1793). Here is standing what is known as the Suffolk Resolves Mansion, an inscription on a tablet on the front of the building read- ing in part as follows : In this Mansion, on the ninth bay OF September, 1774, at a meeting of the delegates of every Town AND District in the County of Suffolk, the Suffolk Resolves were adopt- ed. They were reported by Major General Warren who fell IN their defence at the Battle of Bunker Hill, June 17, 1775. Here, in the Cemetery, are laid the re- mains of Wendell Phillips, removed from the Granary Burying-ground (where they had temporarily been placed at his death) in April, 188G. There are numerous ob- jects of interest to strangers. There is a bright local paper, the Milton News, published by W. A. Woodward. Newton Circuit. One of the most pleasant excursions into the beautiful suburbs of Boston may be made by what is known as the Newton Circuit of the Boston & Albany Railway, opened May 16, 1886. As is well known the group of villages comprising the city of Newton, and the other towns between Newton and Boston, are among the most pictur- esque and charming localities to be found in America, rivalling the beautiful settle- ments along the banks of the Thames above London, the river Charles being no less worthy of admiration than the English river, and, in fact, there are various points of resemblance between them. By means of the new NcAvton Circuit one may find frequent and rapid transit to this delightful suburban region. The Circuit Line from Boston to Boston —via Main Line Circuit and Brookline Circuit— has the following stations: Cot- tage Farm (3m.), Allston (4), Brighton (5), Faneuil (6), Newton (6.i), Newtonville (8), West Newton (9), Auburndale (10), River- side (U) (the farthest point of the Circuit, a branch line running from here to New- ton Lower Falls), Woodland (11), AVaban (lOi), Eliot (10), Newton Highlands (9), Newton Centre (8), Chestnut Hill (7), Reservoir (6), Cypress Street (4^), Brook- line (4), Long-wood (3), Chapel (23-4), Bear con Street, and ending in Boston, where it begins. Trains are run every day, Sundays included, almost every half hour, upwards of 20 trains per day, each way, being made up. Peabody. I8 miles, on the Eastern Railway. Here is the house where George Beabody was born. The Peabody Insti- tute aiid Library, given by Peabody to the town, are well worthy of a visit. 'The Institute contains a remarkably fine oil portrait of Queen Victoria, and many other highly interesting objects. Here, also, is Harmony Grove Cemetery, where Peabody was buried, and an old burying- ground, where Eliza Wharton, "the Co- quette," was buried. In this town is also the noted " Ship Rock." (Peabody can be reached by street-cars from Cornhill, via Lynn & Boston horse-railway.) Quincy, 8 miles from Boston. Old Colony Railway. One of the most at- tractive suburbs of the city. This town was called after John Qufncy, who died in 1767. Here are a number of historic old mansions, among them the houses in which the Presidents of the United States, John Adams and John Quincy Adams, were born and also the house in which both of them died. Their remains were placed in the portico of the Stone Temple. The house in which John Hancock lived is also standing. It was here that the first railway in this country was laid, in 1826, the line being three miles in length. The noted Adams Academy is located here. Among the interesting features of the town are the Sailors' Snug Harbor and the National Sailors' Home. The great granite quarries are objects of Avonder to strangers. In fact, the town abounds in interesting localities. At the dedication of the Sailors' Snug Harbor, Lunt's fine poem, containing the fol- lowing lines, was read: "Here may the veteran mariner repose When on his craft the life-storm fiercely blows; SAL-WEN 227 Here let him turn aport, and, furling sail, Run for a harbor through the driving gale; Here, rounding to, drop anchor near the shore. And ride in safety till life's voyage is o'er. From cape to cape, search round our noble Bay, No lovelier sight than here can eye sur- vey; From yonder hill, when sunsets blazing sheen Sets in a golden frame the pictured scene. Let the eye wander freely as it will — Landward or seaward — all is beauty still." Korth of Germantown is Hough's Neck, granted to Atherton Hough, of Boston, in 1637. The road from Quincy was laid out in 1673. The view from Hough's Neck, or "Bay-side Park," is one of great beauty and diversity. Salem. 16 miles from Boston. Reach- ed by Eastern division Boston & Maine Railway. Also by street cars via Lynn and Peabody. Lynn & Boston horse-rail- way, office Cornhill, near Pcollay S(iuare. Good bicycle roads. (Bicycle route is over the Milklam, through B'righton Avenue to Harvard Square, Cambridjre, to Por- ter's Station, to Medford, Maiden, Maple- wood, East Sano-ixs, Lynn, and Salem.) Salem is an extremely interestinji; old city. It is the county seat of Essex County. The Essex House is on the prin- cipal s^treet, Essex Street. Here is a State Normal School; the Essex Institute, (with a library of 25,000 vols.); the Salem Ath- enaeum, (with 14,000 vols.); the East India Marine Hall, containing the fine ethno- logical museum of the Marine Society, (open to the public /ree every day except Sunday from 9 a. ni. to 5 p. m.) Histori- cal associations abound here. The Ro2,er Williams House, which is still standing at the corner of North and Essex Streets, is noted for having been the building in which some of the early examinations of persons charcred with making use of witchcraft were held. Gallows Hill, where executions took place, is an elevation in the western part of the city. The frame of the original first meeting-house, built in 1634, is still to be seen, in the rear of Plummer Hall. But, to the sentimental tourist, the associations clustering about the scenes of some of Hawthorne's ro- mances are in Salem (as in Boston) more precious than any others,tlian even histor- ical facts. Hawthorne was born in Union Street in 1804. The house is now occupied by two families, and is fast going to decay. It is a two-story wooden house, and was once painted brown. The house on Mall Street,where Hawthorne wrote "The Scar- let Letter," is also standing, and is some- what more pretentious than the Union Street house. The Custom House desk of pine where he made his first rough draft of " The Scarlet Letter " is sacredly preser- ved in the reconstructed old First Church, before mentioned. Another building, the Ingersoll House, dating from 1662, is call- ed "The House of the Seven Gables," al- though Hawthorne declared that he drew entirely upon his imagination for the site of his Puncheon mansion. Sudbury. 26 miles from Boston. Longfellow has immortalized the old inn at Sudbury in his famous "Tales of a Wayside Inn," from which the following extract is taken. Of the personages in- troduced into these Tales the musician was the late Ole Bull — whose widow and daughter now reside in Cambridge — and the Sicilian was Luigi Monti. "As ancient is this hostelry As any in the land may be, Built in the old colonial day When nien lived in a grander way With ampler hospitalitv;— A kind of old Hobgoblin Hall Now somewhat fallen to decay. With weather stains upon the wall. And stairways worn, and crazy doors, And creaking and uneven floors. And chimneys huge and tiled and tall." Swampscott. 12 miles, on the Eastern Railway. The summer home of numerous well-known wealthy Boston- ians. There are manj^ elegant villas, and several fine hotels, among them being the Lincoln and Ocean Houses. The beaches are of good length, and the bathing, on accouiit of the comparative warmth of the water, is very enjoyable. Wellesley. 15 miles. Boston and Albanv Railway. This is one of the most beautiful towns in the chain of park-like suburbs surrounding Boston. Here is located the great AVellesley College for young ladies. The celebrated grounds of William Emerson Baker known as Krino Park and Grotto, are visited by many thousands of people every summer,while near by is the Hunnewell Estate, with its noted Italian-terrace Garden. "Wenham, a prettv town, 22 miles from Boston, i^ noted for its Wenham Lake, from which, in years gone by, ice was cut by the Tudor Ice Company, of Boston, and sent to England. Ice is known in London, to-day, as " Wenham," taking its name from Wenham Lake. (AVenham is in Essex County, on the Eastern Division of the Boston and Maine Railway.) A-FRA PUBLIC PARKS. A few years ago iJoston began to realize that with the rajiid increase in population there came the need of more open spaces in which the i)eople might find rest and recreation, and that the time to lay out these public i)arks was before desirable territory for such grounds had been laid out into streets and covered ■with dwelling houses. Boston sometimes looks ahead a little, and in the matter of parks, she has recently taken steps in a true, progressive direction. The follow- ing is a list of old and ziew public parks and squares: Arboretum Park. Jamaica Plain, W. Roxbury District. 1G4 acres. Reached by steam railway, Boston and Providence line to Forest Hills Station, or by street- cars, Jamaica Plain line. Back Bay Park. On the " made land " of the Back Bay or New West End Territory. Avenues lead to it from AVest Chester Park Street and Beacon Street.

A large territory in the West Roxbury District, which has been opened to the public in its natural state. Divi- sion walls have been removed, and the people are permitted to roam at will over its hills, plains and meadows, or through its woodlands. Naturally one of the most picturesque and beautiful tracts in New England, it must eventually become, when artistic features have supplemented its present wildness, one of the most charming great public parks of the world. The most elaborate plans for heightening the beauty of its original features have been prepared. It is visited by large numbers, especially on Sundays. It is estimated that on certain holidays and Sundays the number of visitors from all directions has reached 50,000. If better facilities for transportation were afforded even larger numbers would probably as- semble. The Park already contains about one thousand acres, and it will probably be enlarged by the addition of several estates adjoinihg. The main entrance is from Bhic Hill Avenue. (Take Franklin Park or Oakland Garden street-cars at Temple Place.) FRA-WOR 229 Franklin Square.

Winship, " tlie strong man." Later, Dr. Dio Lewis did much to promote physical health, espe- cially among young women. The city and suburbs are now well supplied with tinelj^- appointed gymnasiums, as follows: Boston Young Men's Chris- tian Association Gymnasium. 174 Boylston Street. Boston Younff Men's Chris- tian Union Gymnasium. 18 Boylston Street. Boston Youn^ Women's Christian Association Gym- nasium. Corner of Berkeley and Ap- pleton Streets.

Broad in the sunshine stretched away, With its capes and islands, the turquoise bay, And over water and dusk of pines Blue hills lifted their faint outlines. —John Greenleaf Whittier. Atlantic Hill. A noted eminence at Nantasket, upon which is situated the Atlantic House. (See Nantasket). Beachmont. (See Revere Beach). Black Rock. A Nantasket resort. Exceedingly picturesque. Brant Rock. In favorite resort. Marshfield. A City Point. South Boston. For the perspiring citizen or stranger who wishes to find a cool temperature within a short distance, a ride of about thirty minutes upon one of the open cars of either the Scollay Square or Park Square lines of the South Boston Horse Railway, will take him to City Point, where he can usually enjoy cool, ocean breezes to his heart's content. Now that the new JVIarine Park has been opened, with its broa d pier extending several hundred feet into the waters of Dorchester Bay, sheltered from the Sim and from rain for the distance of three hundred and fifty feet, and having a double row of seats its entire length, the number of people who make an ex- cursion to this point is daily on the in- crease. On the first warm flay after the pier was constructed (188G) a multitude of people visited this Park. The Park Com- missioners have arranged for the jireser- vation of perfect order. The invigorating salt-air breezes, the beautiful view of the vessels passing in and out of the harbor; of Fort Independence, Thompson Island, etc., and the pleasant ride to the Point, combine to form a very attractive excur- sion, for an outlay of ten cents. Cohasset. This is one of the most beautiful and romantic spots along the whole coast. Here a large theatrical col- ony have summer homes. Lawrence Ba"rrett has a fine residence. William H. Crane, Stuart Robson, Harry Meredith, George C. Boniface and others have pleasant homes here. (Cohasset is 20 miles from Boston, on the Old Colony Railway). Cottage Park, (See Winthrop). Crescent Beach. (See Revere Beach). Crystal Bay, (See Winthrop). Downer Landing. One of the most beautiful spots in Boston Harbor is GLA-MAR 231 Downer. Partly sheltered from the strongest force of Old Ocean and the winds by projecting headlands and rocky points, it is much patronized by those who prefer placid basins to high-rolling break- ers, and quiet, picturesque vieAvs to the more bold surroundings of some of the other resorts near the city. Here one may bathe in water that is more shallow and is less cold than at other beaches, and there are many unique features which bring visitors here who seldom go to the other seaside resorts. Here is the noted Melville Garden, with an area of twenty aci-es, within which are offered innumera- ble attractions — boating,fishing,bathing, dancing, bowling, shooting, and oppor- tunities for playing billiards, ball, cro- quet, tennis, lacrosse, etc., while swings, flying horses, and other amusements please the young. There are bear-pits, and numerous other objects of interest. It is a great resort for picnic parties from all sections of New England. One of its features consists of an immense clam- bake pavilion — seating nearly a thou- sand people at one time— where mammoth heaps of clams cooked in the primitive manner of the Indians, and taught by them to the early settlers of Boston, namely, by baking them upon stones upon which a hot fire has been burning, placing over them seaweed to hold the heat. Ears of green corn are cooked in the same manner, and at the same time. These clambakes are greatly enjoyed by the rural population who swarm to Downer Landing on hot summer days, crowding the great harbor steamers to the limit permitted by law. Downer Landing has quite a large colony of summer resi- dents from Boston and other cities. There is an excellent hotel, the Rose Standish House. That a certain degree of exclu- siveness pervades the community may be gathered from the following, from the pen of Nora Perry: "Downer Landing is a retreat for the cottagers, chiefly; and, still and high, it looks down upon Nan- tasket's whirl and bustle with a little of the holier-than-thouativeness that comes so natural to the Bostonian. Ask these quiet dwellers, enthroned upon their height, if they visit Nantasket fre- quently, for a day's junketing, and see with what a superior air of pity for your ignorance you will be answered. You might as well ask them if they spent Fourth of July on Boston Common." (Steamers for ' Downer Landing leave India Wharf, 288 Atlantic Avenue, fre- quently during the day. Sundays in- cluded. Trains on the Old Colony Rail- way carry i)assengers to Hingham). Glades. At the extreme end of Scit- uate. A most romantic and beautitul spot. Here are the summer homes of several prominent Bostonians, among them Hon. Oliver Ames, Frederic L. Ames, Hon. Robert Codman and others. Green Hill. One of the jSTantaskct resorts. The summer home of the Han- Ion Brothers, the famous pantomimists. Grover Cliff. throp. A locality in Win- Hingham. About three miles from Nantasket Beach is the old town of Hing- ham. This is a summer home of quite a number of Bostonians, who admire its streets, shaded by tine old trees, and its many charming drives. Here is a statue of John A. Andrew. In the South Hing- ham burial-ground is a renowned mag- nolia tree. (Hingham is 17 miles from Boston, on the Old Colony Railway.) Hough's Neck (or Bayside Park) lies north of Germantown, Quincy. It is reached by a three-mile carriage road from Quincy on the Old Colony Railway. As a place for summer residence, owing to its comparatively isolated situation and the superb views in every direction, it is coming to be regarded as one of the most desirable in the vicinity of the city. Hull. George S. Hillard compared Nantasket and Hull to the Lido of Venice ; but it was hardly fair toward Hull, say travellers. At Hull is the Hotel Pember- ton, an imposing structure of Queen Anne architecture, and with spacious piazzas, band-stand, etc. The views from the Pemberton are extremely beautiful, in whatever direction one may look. The pier of the steamboat line is near the hotel, as is also the station of the Nantas- ket Beach Railway. Many passengers going to Nantasket leave tlie steamer at Hull and proceed the rest of the way by rail, thus giving the trip a pleasing variety. (For Hull take steamers at Rowe's wharf, — 340 Atlantic Avenue — seven times each way daily. See time- table in daily papers. Street-cars to Rowe's wharf from head of Franklin Street. Rail all the tvay from Boston to Hull on Old Colony and Nantasket Beach Railways). Jerusalem Road. (See Nantas- ket). Marshfield. O the sea, the sea! And Marshfield. Daxiel Webster. Small wonder that the great statesman, amid the cares of public life at Washing- ton or his oflice duties in Boston, sighed for a glimpse of the spot he held dearer than all, his seaside summer home at Mai'shfield. This is a very pleasant old town, and one will feel Avell repaid for a visit. Here was for many years the home of the late Adelaide Phillipps. (Marsh- field is reached by trains on the Old Colony Railway. It is 34 miles from Bos- ton.) NAU-NAN Nahant. Longfellow — who had a summer residence here — sang : *' Till my soul is full of longing For the secret of the sea, And the heart of the great ocean Sends a thrilling pulse through me." Lady Mary A^ ortley Montague wrote: " In returning through the harbor of Boston from Nahant we were full of ad- miration of its scenery; the many lovely islands with which it is beautifully stud- ded, and the superb view of Boston itself, so nobly surmounted by its ci*own- like State House, enchanted us." Na- hant was the summer home of Agassiz and Frescott, as well as of Longfellow. At Nahant are some most attractive localities. For one who likes to see the breaking waves dash high, there is no place near the city more picturesque nor beautiful. (One can go direct by steam- boat from India Wharf — 288 Atlantic av. — or by rail to Lynn, by Eastern or Re- vere Beach Railways, thence to Nahant by coach.) Nantasket Beach. Peter Pere- grine wrote: "The Nantasket Beach is the most beautiful one I ever saw. It sweeps round in a majestic curve, which, if it were continued so as to complete the circle, would of itself embrace a small sea. There was a gentle breeze upon the water, and the sluggish waves rolled in- ward with an languid movement, and broke, with a low murmur of music, in long lines of foam against the opposing sands. The surface of the sea was — in every direction — thickly dotted with sails, the air was of a delicious tempera- ture, and altogether it was a scene to detain one for hours." His pen-picture of this delightful resort will find instant appreciation in the minds of all who have ever sojourned at this celebrated beach, although since it was written the surroundings upon the shore have vastly changed. Palatial hotels have been built, avenues have been laid out, and the former deserted rocky headlands are fast assuming the appearance of a summer city by the sea. For those of New England — and New York State also furnishes its quota — who really desire " a day at the beach," Nantasket offers the desired attractions. Here is a wide, hard, smooth beach, almost as even as a floor, seven miles in length, and SAvccp- ing in most graceful lines, with facilities for driving, Avalking, bathing, etc.. that no beach on the coast can surpass. Above all, the adjoining shore is not a flat, tame, uninteresting waste of land, but consists largely of lofty, rugged, rocky headlands, rising majestically from the sea, and surmounted with Structures of various styles of architec- ture. Along the Jerusalem road are scenes of the greatest beauty and pic- turesqueness, the waters surging in Bmong the rocks in great masses of foam- ing surf, and casting showers of spark- ling spray into the air. In a few moments after arriving at the beach one can by taking a Jerusalem road coach find as much seclusion as may be desired. But to the hundreds of thousands of people who run down to Nantasket for a few hours, or a few days, during the summer, the bustle of the great hotels, the ex- citement of the promenades, the quick- ening pulse which stirs great throngs of humanity, the music of the bands, the dinner, the plunge into the high-rolling surf, the various games, etc., are more tempting than the retirement to more secluded spots. The beach ordinarily presents the appearance of a town on a grand holiday; flags are flying, music fills the air, crowds of people arrayed in fine clothes are promenading, merry laughter comes from various cafes where numerous parties are partaking of a genuine old-fashioned clam-bake or a " fish dinner; " there are aquariums, mer- ry-go-rounds, miniature elevated-railways, skating-rinks, Punch-and-Judy shows; peddlers of whips, toy-balloons, peanuts, pop-corn, lemonade; dime museums of five-legged heifers, fat women, circus- acrobats, and altogether one gets the impression that a Fourth-of-July cele- bration has been transferred here from Boston Common. The great Hotel Nan- tasket, situated directly upon the beach, with its grand covered promenades, piazzas, band-stand, etc., is the central l)oint where gather the bulk of day excursionists, most of whom scarcely leave the immediate vicinity until they take the steamer for the return trip to the city. At a short distance, upon an elevation giving a superb panoramic view of land and sea, is the noted Rock- land House, a favorite summer home of representatives of Boston's fashionable circles. Rooms here are in such great demand that early application is neces- sary in order to secure them. Both of these grand hotels are under the efficient management of Russell & Sturgis, who have won the gratitude of thousands of patrons for the acceptable manner in which they have administered to the comfort and pleasure of all who have come within their care. These gentle- men deserve all the popularity they have gained, and that their success increases irom year to year is but a deserved tribute. The rapid development of the resources of this great pleasure-resort during the past few years is largely due to the enterprise, foresight and pro- gressiveness of these popular hosts. The Atlantic House is beautifully located upon a high bluff, and is abundantly pat- ronized. Scores of other hotels, cafes, etc., have been built along the beach and upon the highlands, all ot which seem to be prosperous. The editor of a New York newspaper writes thus of this re- sort: " Bostonians are justly proud of Nantasket Beach, where one can get cul- OAK— EEV 233 tured clams, intellectual chowder, refined lager, and very scientific pork and beans. It is far superior, however, to our monotonous sand-beach (Coney Island) in its picturesqueness of natural beauty, in the American character of the visi- tors, in the reasonableness of hotel charges, and the excellence of the ser- vice. This is_a pretty plain statement of simple facts. '(To reach Nantasket take steamers leaving Rowe's Wharf— 340 Atlantic Avenue — eight times, each way, daily. See time-table in daily papers. Fare, 25 cents each way. Street-cars for Rowe's Wharf leave head of Franklin Street, corner of Washington Street, every few minutes. Persons going to Hotel Pemberton or Oregon House, Hull, take the same steamers. Those who pre- fer to go to Xantasket by rail, will find frequent trains on the Old Colony Rail- way to Hingham, thence by Nantasket Beach Railway). Oak Island, a resort on Revere Beach. Ocean Spray, in the town of Winthrop is located this popular and rapidly-growing summer resort. The beach is a very good one for bathing. There are several excellent hotels, the Shirley, the Hotel St. Leonards, etc. Numerous well-known actors and ac- tresses have summer homes here, among them J. B. Mason, N. C. Goodwin, jr., H. E. Dixey, George W. Wilson, Jacques Kruger, W. F. Owen, James Nolan, Geo. Fortescue, Mrs. Octavia Allen, INIiss Eleanor Cary and others. (Ocean Spray is reached by Boston, Revere Beach iSc Lynn Railway — 340 Atlantic Avenue — changing at Winthrop Junction. Cars run late at night, giving one facilities lor getting home after the theatre). Point Allerton. Adjoining Hull. Named for Isaac Allerton (agent of the Massachusetts Bay Colony), who came over in the." Mayflower." Point of Pinesc Beach). (See Revere Pemberton. (See Hull). Plymouth. •' The hill of hallowed brow Where the Pilgrim sleepeth now." Every visitor to Boston should, if possi- ble, make a pilgrimage to Plymouth Rock. Here is a quaint and beautiful old town. It is said that at least twenty-five thousand persons visit Plymouth every summer. Here is the historic rock upon which the Pilgrims landed; Pilgrim Hall, in which are many memorials of the fore- fathers (including Governor Carver's chair. Miles Standish's sword, etc.); the Pilgrim National Monument, surmounted by a gigantic ideal statue of "Faith"; the old Burying Hill; numerous old houses, some of them built previous to 1680; and various other objects of inter- est. There is a fine hotel here, the Clif- ford. (Plymouth is reached by the Old Colony Railway. It is 37 miles from Bos- ton. There are frequent steamboat ex- cursions to this town during the summer.) Point Shirley. In the town of Winthrop. A very i)leasant resort. Here is Taft's Hotel, the most famous sea-side game-dinner house in the United States. Every known variety of fish, bird, etc., in its season is pretty sure to be found here. The wondeiful extent of its larder and the rare excellence of its cookery have carried the fame of Taft's almost every, where. The marine views from Point Shirley are grand. (Take Boston, Revere Beach and Lynn Railway — 340 Atlantic Avenue — changing cars at Winthrop Junction.) Revere Beach. One of the most famous resorts on the Atlantic coast is Revere (or Chelsea) Beach, which can be reached in twenty minutes from Boston. This beach was not largely visited by Bos- tonians until after the building of the Bos- ton, Revere Beach and Lynn Narrow-gauge Railway (through the efforts of A. P. Blake), which runs directly along the edge of the beach, giving the passenger a most charming panorama all along the route. The shore has been rapidly and ahnost completely covered with hotels, cafes, bathing establishments, etc., so that it forms nearly a continuous street from Chelsea to Point of Pines. AVin- tlirop, Beachmont and Crescent Beach are becoming thickly populated sections, and there have been many pretty cot- tages erected, some of the owners resid- ing here throughout the year. Facilities for enjoying fishing, boating, bathing, dancing, band concerts, etc., are numer- ous, and almost innumerable throngs — especially on Sundays and holidays — crowd all means of transit to this beach. Among the special attractions here are the Italian restaurants, where one can find such cooking of macaroni, spaghetti or vermicelli as would tempt the palate of the most fastidious epicure; many places where may be had a regular iish (or "shore") dinner, with all the "fixins," for the moderate sum of half a dollar; while here and there may be found establish- ments dear to the heart of many a hungry Yankee where baked beans are dispensed; to say nothing of the numer- ous houses where genuine clam-bakes are provided, smoking hot from the heated stones and sea^veed, with all the accom- paniments of green corn, melted butter and watermelons, concluding with the ubiquitous pie, selected from an inde- scribable variety. Here, also, may be had fish or clam chowder, in its perfection. Proceeding to the farther end of the beach we arrive at the celebrated resort, 234 SAG-WIX the Point of Pines, the fame of which has reached the greater portion of the country, judging from the sections f rona ■whi('h come many of the guests of the great Hotel I'incs, one of the largest and most elegant summer liotels in the United States. Here is also the Goodwood, an- other noted hotel; and numerous cafes. The extensive grounds are laid out in the most beautiful forms of modern land- scape gardening, with lawns, flowers, etc., and, at nightfall, when the numer- ous arches of globes are illuminated, and the electric lights are displayed, the scene is one of great beauty and bril- liancy. Concerts of band music are pro- vided, and there are numerous other great attractions. The scene on the grand piazzas of the Hotel Pines during a band concert on almost any afternoon is an animated and most attractive one. Throii}!:h tlie able management of Charles H. Thayer the Point of Pines has become one of the great popular summer resorts of the country. (Trains for Revere Beach leave the station of the P., P. B. & L. R. R. — 340 Atlantic av. — generally on every even hour of the day. Horse cars from head of Franklin St. run to the Railway station. Horse cars run to Revere Beach from Cornhill.) Sagamore Hill. At Nantasketis the famous Sa}:j:amore Hill, where once the Indians dwelt, and held their councils. The wigwam of a sachem was here, and the savage court was held where now the picnickers spread their dinner-cloth. Scituate. " How dear to my heart are the scenes of mv childhood, When fond recollection presents them to view; The orchard, the meadow, the deep-tan- gled wikUvood, And every loved spot that my infancy knew." Thus sang Samuel "Woodworth in his familiar poem, " The Old Oaken Bucket," the scene of which, in this old town, is visited by many, (Scituate is on the Old Colony Railway, 26 miles from Boston.) Skull Head. A locality at Nantas- ket. So called from the fact that many human bones have here been found from time to time, together with tomahawks, arrowheads, etc., indicating that here the Indians fought their enemies, the Tarra- tines. Strawberry Hill. Between Hull and Nantasket lies Strawberry Hill, a popular resort. Here is the Sea Foam House. Numerous private residences have been erected here. It may be reached by leaving the steamer at Pemberton and taking the train on the Nantasket Beach Railway. Sunny Side, it is here that the celebrated Yokes Family make their summer home while in America. (See Winthrop). Swampscott. One of the most fash- ionable resorts of wealthy Bostonians. Here are a number of excellent hotels. Swampscott is said to be "the coolest place on the entire North Shore." (On the Eastern Railway, 12 miles from Bos- ton). Winthrop. This beautiful penin- sula, having less than one thousand acres in area, has more than eight miles of beach. It has several pretty and thriving settlements; Ocean Spray, Point Shirley, Sunnyside, Great Head, Cottage I'afk and Crystal Bay. Here Garibaldi so- journed for some time, in 1853; and Agassiz was no stranger to Winthrop's gi'eat natural beauties. To give some idea of the advance of the price of real estate here, it may be stated that in 1875 land on the present site of Ocean Spray was valued at but f35an acre. (To reach Winthrop take Boston, Revere Beach and Lynn Railway, at 340 Atlantic Avenue). BOS-FOR 235 BOSTON HARBOR. The waters of the rebel bay Have kept their tea-leaf savor; Our old North-Enclers in their spray- Still taste a Hyson tlavor. Oliver Wekdell Holmes. There is certainly no greater pleasure to the weary citizen on a hot afternoon than that afforded by a sail down the harbor of Boston, renowned the world over for its beauty, the number and size of its islands, its majestic fortresses, its bold headlands and magnificent views. Those who take excursions on sluggish, muddy rivers, through a tame, flat, unin- teresting region, cannot realize the gran- deur and beauty, the inspiriting, invigor- ating recreation that comes from a real visit to Old Neptune. Poets, authors and artists have combined to sound the praises of the beauties of Boston Harbor, but the half has not been sung nor told. Howells, the famous novelist, writes of it thus: " A light breeze ruffled the surface of the bay, and the innumerable little sail-boats that dotted it took the sun and wind upon their wings, which they dipped almost into the sparkle of the water, and flew lightly hither and tliither like gulls that loved the brine too well to rise wholly from it. Larger ships, farther or nearer, puffed or shrank their sails as they came or went on the errands of commerce, but always moved as if bent uiion some dreamy aflair of pleasure; the steam- boats that shot vehemently across their tranquil courses seemed only gayer and vivider visions, but not more substantial. Yonder a black sea-going steamer passed out between the far-oil islands, and at last left in the sky above those reveries of fortification, a whiff of sombre smoke, dark and unreal as a memory of battle. . . . The steamships of many coast- lines gloom, with their black, capacious hulks, among the lighter sailing-craft, and among the white, green-shuttered passenger-boats; . . . and then, growing up from all, rises the mellow-tinted, brick-built city, roof, and spire, and dome, a fair and noble sight, indeed, and one not surpassed for a certain cleanly beauty by any that I know." Another eminent author, Charles Dudley Warner, writes: " What a beautiful har- bor it is — everybody says— with its ir- regularly indented shores and its islands ! The day is simply delicious when Ave get away from the unozoned air of the land. The sky is cloudless, and the water spark- les like the top of a glass of champagne." FORTS IN THE HARBOR. Fort Independence. About two and one-half miles from the city (and only nine hundred yards from City Point, South Boston) stands majestic Fort Inde- pendence, of stone, erected on the site of Castle William. It is a fortress worthy of the name. Each of its five sides is guard- ed by bastions and flank defences, with howitzers of large size, in casemates, and on the barbettes are fifteen-inch Rodman guns. It has spacious quarters for gar- rison, storehouses, bakeries, rooms for ordnance, etc. Here, on Castle Island, has been a harbor defence for more than two hundred and fifty years, being the oldest military i)ost held regularly for purposes of defence in the United States. The history of this great fort is an inter- esting one. Fort Warren. On Georges Island, about six miles from the city, is Fort Warren, the great fortress which has been called "the key of Boston Harbor." The first fortifications here were raised in 1778. The present fort, the construc- tion of Avhich was begun in 1833 and fin- ished in 1850, was built ujjon plans mod- elled upon those of the best fortresses of Europe. In 1861 the Webster Regiment encamped here. During the Civil War, after the " Merrimac " had begun its raids, the Government at Washington (hearing that a gentleman named Davis, in the South, had threatened, at Atlanta, to send several cruisers, among them the " Alabama," into Boston Harbor, to bom- bard the city of Phillips, Sumner and Garrison, " the hot-bed of anti-slavery") commanded Governor John A. Andrew to close up the entrance of the harbor by sinking there the hulks of vessels. This was not done, although other equally effective plans for defending the city were arranged. It was in the spring of 18C1, at Fort Warren, that " Glory, glory, hallelujah! " — •'John Brown's body lies a mouldering in the grave. His soul is marching on! " was composed and first sung. The glee club of the Second Battalion light infan- try were the first to sing it. The music was slightly varied from an old hymn- tune. The Twelfth Massachusetts Regi- ment, marching through Boston, com- 23« ISL- LON bined their thousand voices in a grand chorus,and the arniy-sonsi; was then for the first time heard in the streets of any city. They afterwards sang it in New York and Baltimore, and regiment after regiment took it up until it swept through the en- tire army. It has well been called " the Marseillaise of the Rebellion." At this famous fortress, during the Civil War, were imiirisoned hundreds of disloyal officers and civilians, (ien. Burns'ide alone sent eight hundred confederates here. Among the prisoners at the " Bos- ton Bastille," as it was termed, were Al- exander H. Stephens, " Vice-President of the Confederate States," who was a guest for five months ; Major General Edward Johnson, Generals Gordon, Marmaduke, Jackson, Smith (T. B.), Trimble, Johnson, Hunton, Kershaw, Barton, Corse, Simms; Mason and Slidell, the Confederate agents; Harry Gilmour, Commodore Tucker, the officers and crews of the pri- vateers, "Atlanta "and "Tacony," and numerous others. (A United States Steam- boat makes several trips, each way, every day, between Central Wharf and Fort Warren). Fort Winthrop. Governor's Is- land. In 1096 batteries were erected here. The construction of the present fortress was begun previous to the Civil War. The United States Government has here built enormous military defences, at an immense outlay. Underneath the appar- ently innocent tufted mounds are con- structed vast subterranean arched pas- sages, massive batteries, etc., while the citadel, a gigantic, earth-covei-ed granite stronghold, shows merely its top above the mounds. This is really the strongest fortification in the harbor, pro])ably, although presenting the least indications to that cllect. ISLANDS IN THE HARBOR. As there are more than fifty islands in Boston Harbor, we have not the space to describe them, but will mention some of the larger and best known. Long Island is about five miles from the city. Here are eartliworks for defence, a light- house, the light of which can be seen fifteen miles out. There are here colonies of Portuguese fishermen. Castle Island, upon which is Fort Independence; Gov- ernor's Island, with its Fort Winthrop; Georges Island, where is located Fort Warren; Thompson's Island, Spectacle Island, Lovell's Island, Gallop's Island, Deer Island, where Boston's House of Reformation, the House of Industry and the Almshouse are located ; Ward's Island, belonging to Harvard University; Little Brewster, on which is Boston Light; Great Brewster, where Bug Light is situ- ated; Lovell's Island, Calf Island, Green Island, Moon Island, Rainsford Island, Pcddock Island, Apple Island, Snake Island, etc. HARBOR EXCURSION STEAMBOATS.

"A map of busy life- Its fluctuations and its vast concerns." — COWPER. (This department of the Cyclopedia of Boston has been arranged upon the plan of Charles Dickens' Dictionaries of Lon- don anel Paris, the accuracy and value of which the writer of this work has prac- tically tested during his visits to those cities). Abattoir. (See Brighton Abattoir). Academy of Arts and Scien- ces, American. (1780). lOR Beacon Street. One of the oldest and most noted societies in existence for the promotion of scientific knowledge. Acme Club. (See Dining Clubs). Adams House. (1883). 553 Wash- ington Street. This renowned hotel stands on the site of the former Adams House, l)ut greatly surpasses it in size, magnificence and luxurious furnishings. Here once stood the old Lamb Tavern, a famous hostelry of provincial days, from which several stage lines started. In 1767, in the month of July, the Boston and Providence Stage line was established, with the Lamb Tavern as the Boston ter- minus. This tavern was of wood, two stories in height, with a swing-sign, upon which was painted a white lamb. The present Adams House is seven stories high in front and eight stories in the rear. The front is of white marble, with polished red granite pillars and trim- mings. It has three entrances from Washington Street. Its grand, lofty hall is brilliantly illuminated at nicht with incandescent electric lights, the cafe, for ladies and gentlemen, is ninety feet in length and nineteen feet high, and is decorated in the most elegant stvle. There are about 300 rooms for guests, the prices for which range from $1 per day upwards. The hotel is kept on the Eu- ropean plan. George G. Hall (formerly of Hall & Whipple) is the Proprietor. Aiding Discharged Convicts. (18-40). The Massachusetts Society for aid- ing discharged convicts is doing a noble work. There is every reason to believe that were it not for this kindly helping hand extended to those who find it difticult to obtain employment after coming out of prison, crime woule be largely increased. Charles Sumner was one of the founders of the Society. Office at 35 Avon Street. AUandale Spring. A noted re- sort in Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury District. Almshouses. The Directors of Public Institutions have four almshouses under their control. Office 30 Pemberton Square.

Amateur Dramatic Societies. In Boston and vicinity there are quite a number of societies of young persims as- l^iring to Thespian honors, among the most prominent being the " Footlight Club, of Brookline. Charlestown District has an Amateur Opera Club, the members of which possess an unusual amount of ability. Amateur Photography is one of the most popular occupations for many ladies and gentlemen, whose leisure hour's are thus,einployed. Outfits may be ob- tained of the Various dealers in photo- graph apparatus. Ambulance Service. The am- bulance system of Boston is arranged in the most comprehensive and perfect man- ner. Under the control of two great hos- pitals— the Massachusetts and City — the former looking after the sections of the city north of Berkeley and Dover Streets, and the latter covering the territory south of that line. Applications may be made at the nearest police station. 238 AME— AKC American Board of Commis- sioners for Foreign Missions. (1810). 7 Beacon Street. American House. (1835). 56 Hanover Street. This is one of the oldest, largest and most popular hotels of Boston. The present great building covers the sites of the old and renowned Merchants' Hotel, Hanover House, and also that once occupied by the residence of General Joseph Warren. The grand, spacious hall of the hotel is very attractive, and l^resents a busy scene when thronged by merchants from the West and South who make their home at the American while in Boston. Here, in the evening, after dinner, before attending any of the vari- ous theatres and other places of amuse- ment, there is the appearance of a vast exchange, where representatives of every section of the country assemble to com- pare notes as to the condition of business in their respective cities. The American is kept on the good, old-fashioned Ameri- can plan; its table is noted for being lavishly supplied with every substantial article of food as w^ell as with every deli- cacy that its experienced chefenn devise • its rooms are large, airy and provided with most luxurious furnishings; and everything that can in the least conduce to the comfort or convenience of its numerous guests is provided. It was the first hotel to furnish a passenger-elevator for the use of patrons. The American holds a foremost position among the great first-class hotels of the United States, and will continue so to do while the enterprising, liberal and experienced proprietors who now manage it shall con- trol its fortunes. Henry B. Rice & Co. conduct the hotel. American Peace Society. (1828). 7 Beacon Street. Amusements. The places of amusement in Boston are numerous, and one's taste must indeed be difficult to please if the many entertainments pro- vided do not offer something attractive. The reader will find in the departments of this work devoted to Places of Jmuse- viput, Museiims and Exhihitio'ns, Smn- mpr Gardens, etc., full particulars of the amusements furnished in what the ma- jority of managers term, in the parlance of tlieir profession, " the best show town in the country." Ancient and Honorable Ar- tillery. (ini^S). Annorj^ at Fancnil Hall. This is the oldest military company in the XJnited States. Its annual parade takes place on the first Monday in June, when the company listens to a sermon, has a grand dinner at Faneuil Hall, thence proceeding to the Common, where the Governor of the State delivers their commissions to the newly-elected officers. Animals, Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to. 19 Milk Street. Annexations. The following are the names of the territories annexed to Boston, with the dates, p<)pnlati(m, valu- ation, etc., at the time of annexation: Year. District. ropnl'n. Valu'n. 1804 . .

Roxbury .... 10,301 .... 22,148,600 Apartment Houses. Family Hotels or French Flats were first intro- duced into America in 1859. The first apartment hotel to l)e constructed in the XJnited States was the Hotel Pelham, at the corner of Tremont and Boylston Streets, in Boston. (See complete list of Apartment Hotels.) Architecture. Boston is the finest city, architecturally, considered as a whole, in the United States. AVashing- ton has grand public buildings, other cities have handsome structures ; but the general diffusion of good architectural models in Boston gives a better average of strength and beauty as prevailing characteristics than can be found else- where in the country. Whether one visits the rebuilt "burnt district," where miles of magnificent and substantial business structures have been erected, or the famous Back Bay residential quarter, where hundreds of the most palatial dwellings of Boston's "merchant prin- ces " have been constructed, the fair- minded will admit that there is no city in America that can in this respect equal the "Modern Athens." Among the structures which excite the surprise and admiration of visitors from foreign shores are the Museum of Fine Arts Building, Trinity Church, the New Old South Church, State Street Block, the Brattle Church (with its Bartholdi bas- reliefs) and many others. Good examples of the Greek school are St. Paul's Church, the Custom House, Quiney Market, Court House. Of the Italian Renaissance school are the Boston Athena'um and Boston Museum, while the French Renaissance has notable examples in the City Hall, the Post-Office, Horticultural Hall, etc. Of the Modern Gothic type, the Museum of Fine Arts and the Boston and Provi- dence Railway Station are conspicuous. The Cathedral of the Holy Cross is a grand example of the Mediaeval Gothic style. Arch^ray Bookstore. De Wolfe, Fiskc & Co. 3G5 Washington Street. A very popular bookstore. ARE— BIG 2o9 Area of Boston. The present area of the city is 23,661 acres, or 36.7 square miles, this being thirty times as large as its original area. Armstrong Transfer Com- pany. The introduction of this con- venient and care-saving arrangement, in 1882, was a great boon to travellers. The system is a model one. Its safety, prompt- ness, and efficiency combine to make it one of the greatest helps to those who wish to have their baggage properly looked after. The general office of the company, at 111 Arch Street, is connected by telephone and private wires with the various railway stations, hotels, etc. Any one wishing the services of the com- pany has simply to give an order, and carriages and baggage-wagons are at once sent to any residence, hotel or busi- ness office in the city, for the conveyance of passengers or luggage to any railway station or steamboat pier. Passengers on inward bound railway trains or steamers can also check their baggage for delivery in any section of the city. The system is coming to be generally adopted by all travellers as it should be. Edward A. Taft is general manager; Fred S. Leon- ard, superintendent. Art. Boston is a great art-centre. Its notable Museum of Fine Arts, a mag- nificently-equipped collection, comparing well with those of Europe, and hav- ing the largest and finest exhibition of casts in the country; its many other gal- leries; its Normal School of Art; Cowles Art School, School of Sculpture, John Lowell School of Design, Society of Dec- orative Art, Art Clubs, etc., and its numerous resident artists, with their classes, combine to give the city an artis- tic atmosphere of genuine value, instead of the superficial, meretricious, and spec- ulative aspect so conspicuous in some sections of our country. Boston works in Art — as in Literature and Music — quietly, unobtrusively, steadily and jjro- gressively, without sensationalism or ostentation, in this respect emulating the example of the art-centres of the Old AVorld, where culture is deep, wide-spread and lasting. (See Colleges and Schools, Exhibitions, Art Galleries, Artists, Art Clubs, etc). Associated Press, in 1849 a number of daily and weekly newspapers combined to obtain telegraphic news, and to divide the expense between them. Ko new papers are admitted to the privileges of the association. Athletics. There are a great many gentlemen in and around Boston who are deeply interested in Athletics. There are numerous organizations for promoting i:>hysical health, among them the Boston Athletic Club, the Irish Athletic Club, the Cribb Club, etc. (See Ilecreatioii Clubs). Back Bay. This is the ugly name that has fasttmed itself upon the most aristocratic quarter of the city, although the section is now called " New West End" by many. This district is bounded by Charles River, Arlington Street, the Boston & Providence Railway and West Chester Park Street. The territory is what is known as " made land," having been reclaimed from the water of the original bay by being filled in with gravel. Among the most expensive and beautiful structures in this quarter are the JVIuseum of Fine Arts, the Boston Art-Club House, Trinity Church, the New Old South Church, the First Spiritual Temple, the Arlington Street Church, the First Bap- tist Society Church, the Young Men's Christian Association Building, the Cen- tral Church, Notre Dame Academy, the great Mechanics' Exhibition Building, the Natural History Society Building, Institute of Technology Building, Chil- dren's Hospital, Chauncy-Hall School, Prince School, Hollis Church, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Bicycle Club House, the Hotels Agassiz, Berkeley, Bristol, Brunswick, Cluny, Copley, Guild- ford, Hamilton, Harold, Huntington, Kempton, Victoria, Vendome, Westland, etc. (This district is reached by the Clarendon and Vendome lines of Back Bay cars, also by the Huntington Avenue and Dartmouth Street lines). Base Ball. (See Recreation Clubs). Baths. The city is well provided with bathing establishments. Turkish, Russian, Roman, Electric, and Sulphur baths are to be had at 17 Beacon Street. The Turkish bath was established here by Dr. Dio Lewis, some years since, on an extensive plan. At 192 Tremont Street baths of various kinds are furnished. (See Free Baths). Battle Flags. (See Exhibition of Battle Flags). Beautifying Railway Station Grounds. Nearly all of the Railway lines running out of Boston endeavor to make the grounds of their suburban sta- tions as attractive as possible. The Old Colony Railwav Company in the spring of 188G had 50,000 "shrubs and plants set out along its line. Bicycling. Boston is the great bi- cycling centre of the country. It has the largest clubs, the finest club-houses, the best streets and roads for cycling, in the world, outside of England, and the most general interest in the subject of any city in America. , Visitors are amazed at the 240 BOA- BOS size and importance of cycling organiza- tions here, and delighted with the roads. The Boston bicyclists sing — with Will Carleton— : "Oood-morning, fellow- wheelmen— here';:; a warm, fraternal hand, As, with a rush of victory, we sweep across the land! If some may be dissatisfied to see the way we ride. We only wish their majesties could travel by our side ! For we are pure philanthropists, Unqualified philanthropists, And would not have this happiness to any one denied. We claim a great utility that daily must increase; We claim from inactivity a sensible release; A constant mental, physical and moral help we feel That bids us turn enthusiasts, and cry, ' God bless the wheel! ' " The several bicycle clubs of Boston are described at length in the department of this work devoted to clubs. Many stu- dents and professional gentlemen take exercise on the bicycle or tricycle, while the tricycle is also beginning to be largely used by ladies. Sorting is a very popular recreation with Bostonians. There are various boat clubs who make Charles River their scene of exercise. (See Clubs). Boffin's Bower. One of the noblest charities of Boston is known as Boffin's Bower. It is located at 1031 Washington Street. Founded by Miss Jennie Collins, in 1870, it has afforded assistance to hundreds of working girls, who have been furnished with meals, lodging, clothing, etc. Employment has been secured for many; goodcovmsel — legal and otherwise — furnished; a read- ing room provided, and many other excel- lent features have been in operation. Free dinners for working girls are fur- nished during the winter. Donations are always acceptable. Books. Book-publishers and book- sellers are very numerous in Boston, as would be natural in a great literary cen- tre. The only purely "literary magazine in America, the Atlantic Monthly, is published here. Among the great pub- lishers of books in the city are Hough- ton, Mifflin & Co., Ticknor & Co., 1). I.othrop & Co., Roberts Brothers, Lee & Shepard. Little, Brown & Co. and Cup- plcs, TTpham & Co. (See Old Corner Jiooksfore.) There are a large number of booksellers who do not publish, and nu- merous antiquarian bookstores. (See Old Book Stores.) Boston Beacon. A paper issued every Saturday morning from 295 Wash- ington Street. It is filled to the brim with bright, interesting items relating to society, books, art, music, drama, etc. It contains cartoons satirizing local af- fairs. Cyrus A. Page is the publisher. Boston Budget. This paper, is- sued on Sunday morning, is one of the brightest and most readable of the week- lies. It was established by M. M. Ballou, in 1878. It is now published by John D. Dwyer. John W. Ryan is the editor and dramatic critic. Mr. Ryan is one of our most exi)erienced and ablest journalists, and has made the liudget a success. The special features of the paper are con- tributions by Ben: Perley Foore, enter- taining paragraphs and much choice miscellany. Boston Cab Company. (1885). The establishment of the Boston Cab Company has worked a complete revolu- tion in the public carriage service of the city, and the hearty support its projec- tors have received augurs well for its continuance and still further develoji- ment. In place of the dingy vehicles so frequently to be seen, the shabby har- nesses, and the overworked horses, this Company supplies handsome new car- riages, comprising coaches, broughams, landaus, victorias, coupes, etc., made exjjressly for this service, with fine horses and equipments; capable and polite drivers (wearing dark green coats and silk hats, and, in rainy weather, white rubber coats and hat covers) ; and with carriages brilliantly lighted at night, the latter being a great desidera- tum with persons who are quite naturally afraid of accidents happening in the dark, now that so much reckless driving of herdics, etc., is permitted. For shop- ping, making calls, pleasure-rides, theatre and party service, the Boston Cab Com- pany furnishes conveyances that are as fine as a gentleman's private carriage, at very moderate prices. For carrying liassengers from one railway station to another the rate is only 25 cents for each passenger, without baggage. There is no charge for hand luggage. The gen- eral offices of the r>oston Cab Company are at 111 Arch Street. Edward A. Taft is President; Fred. S. Leonard, Su- I)erintendent. Bostonian Society. An organi- zation incorporated in 18S1, for the pur- pose of promoting the study of the history of Boston and the preservation of its antiquities. Its rooms are in the Old State House. .Boston Memorial Associa- tion. The avowed objects of this society are "the ornamentation of the city of Boston, the care of its memorials, the BRI-DAI 241 f)reservation and improvement of its pub- ic grounds, and the erection of works of art within the limits of the city." Or- ganized in 1880. Brighton Abattoir. (1873). Brighton District. This Abattoir — mod- elled upon those of Paris — is a place much visited by those interested. A number of large Imildings are devoted to the work of slaughtering, and so exten- sive and well-arranged are the plans of the Association that a thousand sheep and over three hundi'ed cattle may easily be slaughtered every day. There are about fifty atfres of land bordering on Charles River, controlled by the company, and the tracks of the Boston and Albany Kailway and the Fitchburg Railway (Watertown branch) run directly to the doors of the Abattoir. (To reach the Brighton District take street cars from Bowdoin Square or Park Square, or steam cars on the Boston and Albany Railway). Carney Hospital. (1635). Old Harbor Street, South Boston. Founded by a donation of $14,000 by the late An- drew Carney. It is conducted by the Sisters of Charity. It is an unsectarian institution, patients of all religious be- liefs being received. Cathedral of the Holy Cross. Washington Street, corner of Maiden Street. This is a magnificent structure, occupying over an acre of land; the length of the building is 364 feet; width, at the transept, 170 feet, width of nave and aisles, 90 feet ; height to ridgepole, 120 feet. The interior is beautifully and ar- tistically finished. Charity Bureau. Chardon Street. Children, Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to. l Pember- ton Square. Chop Houses. Strangers in Bos- ton, Englishmen especially, are at once impressed with the English aspect of the city and the people, and one of their first desires is to find a chop-house, " One of those snug, quiet little affairs where one can get a nice mutton chop cooked in the real English style, you know, such as one finds at the Criterion, the Gaiety, the Holborn, the Horse-Shoe, the Gattl, and Spiers & Pond's restaurants in London." In addition to the great hotels kept in the European style — such as Young's, Par- kers, the Adams, etc., where the cooking of chops, steaks and meats of all kinds is excellent — there are a number of cosy restaurants where the serving of chops in true English style is made a specialty. Among those which have made the great- est fame as chop-houses are Park's (Bos- worth St.) ; the Coolidge Cafe (Bowdoin Square), where patrons can see the chops cooked on the silver grill ; Maine's (Hay- ward Place) ; Clark's, 543 Washington Street; Barrows', 37 Court Street, and several other places. Tennyson has im- mortalized the chop-house on Fleet Street, London, called " The Cock." If music be the food of love, chops may have been the source of inspiration of some of the Laureate's later poems. Coasting. There are numerous hills in the suburbs where this sport is largely indulged in while the snow covers the ground. At times there is suflicient snow upon the Common to furnish good coasting-ground, and then there are some lively 'scenes. Bridges are often erected over the principal walks temporarily monopolized by the coasters. Numerous accidents, several of them fatal, have happened here to spectators as well as to the participants in this dangerous amuse- ment. A line of double-runners, packed with men and boys, going down one of the long inclines of the Common at al- most lightning speed is an enlivening scene, which is generally witnessed by throngs of people. (See Tobogganing.) Costly Houses. Among the nu- merous expensive private residences in Boston are the dwellings at 353 Common- wealth Avenue (assessed for $225,000) and 306 Dartmouth Street (assessed for $210,- 000). Daily Advertiser, (1812). 246 Washington Street. This is the oldest of the daily newspapers of Boston, hav- ing been established in 1812. (On the site of its former office on Court Street, cor- ner of Franklin Avenue, once stood the printing ofiice of Benjamin Franklin's brother James, where Benjamin himself learned his trade, in 1721. Franklin wrote the following lines as a warning to visi- tors to printing offices : " All ye who come this curious art to see. To handle anything must careful be; Lest by a slight touch, ere you are aware. You may do mischief which you can't repair. Lo ! this advice we give to every stranger: Look on, and welcome, but to touch there's danger!") The Advertiser contained in its first number the announcement that the com- mercial feature would be predominant, although politics would not be ignored. The paper has been styled " the Respect- able Daily," a compliment it has always merited. William E. Barrett is its pres- ent able editor. Its dramatic critic is Henry A. Clapp, whose criticisms are characterized by a refinement, daintiness and poetical felicity of expression which add largely to the force of the analyti- cal and discriminating treatment given them. Howard M. Ticknor is the musi- 242 DIS-FRE cal critic, and his criticisms are written in the methods of the true musician and scholar. The art, literary and other re- views are of a hifrh standard. The Ad- vertiser is an excellent newspaper. Distances. The length of the city, from its southerly to its northerly limits, is 11 miles. The width of the city from east to west, includinji; the Brighton Dis- trict, is 9 miles; the breadth of the busi- ness section, from Charles River to the Harbor, is 1^ miles. Distances from the Old State House, (at the corner of Wash- ington and State Streets), to certain points, are given as follows: To Asylum Street, 1 mile; Canton Street, 1^; Camden Street, 2; Cedar Street,3; Egleston Square, 3^; Green Street, (Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury District) 4; Forest Hills, 5; Rosliudale,6; Clarendon Hills, 7; Dedham line, 9. Drama. (See Places of Amusement). Drives. The roads about Boston are superli for driving. One can go in almost any direction and find charming, pictur- esque views. The Milldam road leads to Longwood, Brookline and Chestnut Hill, the favorite suburbs for drives. Other roads, through Jamaica Plain, Dorches- ter, etc., are also very attractive. Electric Lights, now so common, were first introduced in 1880, in Scollay Square. _ European-Plan Hotels. The hotels kept on the European plan, of ]iro- viding meals and lodgings separately, now so numeroi;s in this "country, were unknown here until 1855. In that year the Parker House, of Boston, was opened, and it was the first hotel in the United States to be kept on the European plan. Executions. All executions are now i)rivatoly conducted within the en- closure of Charles Street Jail, near the foot of Cambridge Street. Faneuil Hall. Whittier wrote (I844j: " Men ! — if manhood still ye claim. If the Northern pulse can thrill. Roused by wrong or stung by shame. Freely, strongly still, — Let the sounds of traffic die : Shut the mill-gate,— leave the stall,— Fling the axe and hammer by,— Throng to Faneuil Hall! # * * # # Up, and tread beneath your feet Every cord by party s'pun: Let your hearts together beat As the heart of one. Banks and tarilfs, stocks and trade. Let them rise or let them fall : Freedom asks your common aid, — Up, to Faneuil Hall! " The old Cradle of Liberty is still rocked whenever there is any question of great public interest at issue. Here, where freedom was nurtured; where, during the Rebellion, the people assembled to teke counsel together, and to listen to burning words of eloquence from the statesmen who quickened the love of every true American for ♦• one fiag and an undivided country," are still to be seen Pilgrims from every State and every land, who seem to feel that it is a privilege to stand within this historic old landmark which connects the i)ast with the present. Foot Ball. There ^re several Foot Ball Teams in Boston and vicinity, among them being the Institute of Terhnology Team; the Harvard Team, Cambridge'; the Roxbury Latin School Team, Bosty performing a certain amount of such light labor as may be given them, princi- pally as a discouragement to vagrancy. Freemasonry. (See Orders and Secret Societies.) Free Musical Instruction. The Beneficent Society of the New Eng- land Conservatory of Music, 27 East New- ton Street, Franklin Square, was organ- ized in 1885 for the puri)Ose of assisting young women and men without means in obtaining a musical education; furnish- ing, also, financial help, as Avell as aiding them to secure remunerative positions. Free Natural History Exhi- bition. At Natural History Society Building, AV.est Berkeley Street, between Boylston and Newbury Streets, on Wed- nesday and Saturday afternoons. Free Rides. The Young Men's Christian Union, 18 Boylston Street, ap- plies funds entrusted to its care for the purpose of defraying the expense of rides lor invalids and poor persons into the suburbs. Free Sunday Art Exhibition. The great collection at the Boston Mu- seum of Fine Arts is open to all every Sunday afternoon. St. James Avenue, Copley Square. Free Sunday Baths. The great floating, swimming-baths of Boston — (17 in number, 7 for women and girls, and 10 for men and boys) are open to all every Sunday during the summer months, from 6 to 9 a. m. (See Free JJuths for location). Free Sunday Natural History Exhibition. The famous Agassiz Museum of Comparative Zoology is open to all, on Sundays, from 1 to 5 p. m. Cars from Park Square or Bowdoin Gquare. Free Sunday Reading Room. The reading-room of the Boston Public Library is open to all on Sunday, day and evening. 4(5 Boylston Street. Free Vacations. The Community of the Holy Name, 24 Cortes Street, re- ceives women and children for a ten days' vacation at their Summer Home at Wey- mouth. Applications are to be made to the Sister Superior, Free Vaccination. At Charity Building, Chardon Street, all persons unable to pay for being vaccinated may receive this medical service free of cost. It is expected that every person will take this precautionary measure at least once in every seven years. Frog Pond. This is the name of the small sheet of water on Boston Corn- Full Dress at the Opera or Theatres of Boston is not de riV/«e«r,although quite generally worn bv occupants of the boxes and orchestra stalls, as far as the gentle- men are concerned. Ladies do not M^ear full dress, as a rule, and it is almost the nniversal custom to see ladies in walking costume escorted by gentlemen in full evening dress. The effect impressed upon one is striking if not particularly pleasing. 244 GLO-HAR Globe, Daily and Sunday. 238 Washington Street. Established la 1872, the tirst number being published on the morning of March -1 of that year. Maturin M. Ballou was its first editor. He was succeeded by Clarence S. Wason, who was followed by Edmund H. Hudson. It was not, however, until Col. Charles H. Taylor, who, after Mr. Ballou had retired from the general management of the new paper, took charge of alfairs that it be- came successful. From an independent daily the Globe has become a Democratic l)ai)er of the most pronounced type. The present editor is James W. Clarke, one of the brightest journalists in the country, formerly of the Traveller, and previously of the Sunday Times, which acquired great prominence during hi:5 connection with it for its weekly caricatures of the Moody and Sankey revival meetings then being held in the Tabernacle. The Globe has now reached a very large circulation, with both its daily and Sunday editions. Its features include the publication of continued stories, people's column, pieces of music, and special articles upon local topics of interest. The musical and dra- matic department, in charge of Charles W. Dyer, is one of the most attractive columns devoted to those subjects in any journal in the country, and is in great demand far and near. Harbor, in another department of this work is to be found an allusion to the unique and i)icturesquely beautiful harbor, with its bluffs and rocky head- lands, and its more than half a hundred green islands, the wonder and admiration of all visitors; the theme of many an apostrophe by famous poets, and frequent description by eminent authors: the scene in summer of " processions of float- ing palaces," as an English writer terms the great fleet of the harbor boats, filled with happy excursionists from the in- terior of Massachusetts, from New Hamp- shire, Vermont and Northern New York State; the huge ocean line steamers; the various boats running to home ports, etc. Among the steamboats making Boston their i)ort are the "Gallia"— the greyhound of the sea — " Pavonia " "Scythia," " Cephalonia," "Catalonia!" "Bothnia" and other great steamboats of the Cunard line between Boston and Liverpool; the fleets of the Allan, War- ren, Leyland and Anchor lines running from Boston to Liverpool; the Furness line to London; the Wilson line to Hull, England; the Diamond Mail line for Hayti; the " Katahdin," "Penobscot," " Iowa, " C a m b r i d g e ," " Tremont," "John Brooks," "State of Maine," "Cumberland," "Carroll," "Worcester," "Milanese," "Dimmock," "General Whitney," "Glaucus," "Saxon," "Do- minion," "Alpha," "Ulunda," "Damara," "British Queen," "Assyria," "Cale- donia," "Durham City,'" "Roman," " Spartan," " Bofrton City," " Chatham," "D. H. Miller," "Berkshire," "City of Macon," "Gate City," " City of Glouces- ter," "Longfellow," "Empire State," "Julia," " Rose Standish," "Twilight," "Nantasket," "William Harrison," "Governor Andrew," "General Lincoln," "Norseman," "Palestine," and numer- ous others, about one hundred in nunv ber — some of them being among the largest, finest and fastest ocean steam- ships ever constructed. Here may also be seen a vast fleet of yachts, among them the " I'uritan," of world-wide celeb- rity, and others scarcely less renowned. Commercially, Boston ranks second only to New York, owing largely to the ad'- vantages its harbor offers to vessels of all kinds. An official report to the United States Government by Prof. Henry Mitch- ell on Boston Harbor as late as 1882, says: " Its great merit lies in a happy conjunc- tion of many favorable elements; the facility and safety of its approaches; the ample width and depth of its entrances; and, above all.the shelter of its roadsteads. Perhaps there is ■no harbor in the world where the inlets of the ocean are better adjusted to the amplitude of the inteHor basins, or whose excellent holding- grounds are so easy of access and yet so land-locked. Her interior w^ater-space is large, but it is divided by chains of islands into basins which offer sufficient room for the heaviest ships to ride freely at anchor." This statement, from one of the best known and most competent authorities (of the United States Ad- visory Council), has had great weight in calling attention to the vast natural ad- vantages of the Harbor. With another extract from a report of the experienced captain of the English steamship, " Sor- rento," we close the evidence of the at- tractiveness of Boston Harbor. He says: " During all my experience as an officer and commander of steamships in the Atlantic trade, / have never before loaded at such magnificent docks. The great depth of the water at low tides, and the spacious sheds and elevators, render the most complete facilities for the loading and discharging of large steamships." (See Map of Boston Harbor given in this work.) Harbor Lights. Among the great lighthouses on the Atlantic coast are the famous Boston Light, at the entrance of the harbor, on Little Brewster Island, a revolving white light, which may be seen 18 miles at sea; Minot Light, on Minot Ledge, Cohasset Rocks; Bug Light, Long Island Light, on Long Island, etc. (See Minot Light). Harvard Botanic Garden. Cambndge. Ernest Ingersoll in the Cen- tury, (June, 1880). writes: "Those horse- cars which leave Bowdoin Square, Boston, every half hour for Mimnt Auburn, by HAR-HOM 245 the way of Garden Street, Cambridge, take the visitor nearest to the Botanic Garden of Harvard University and the residence of tiae venerable botanist, Dr. Asa Gray. Fast Harvard Sq., and the Washington Ehn, you leave the car at the? arsenal and walk up Garden Street, fol- lowing the track which the British sol- diers took in 1775 when they started for Lexington and Concord." The Botanic Garden covers eight acres. It originated in 1805. Mr. IngersoUsays: " Passing out of the herbarium into the library, the hungry botanist will find it hard to go farther. No collection of books in this country approaches it. . . .How easy it must be to study botany in Cambridge ! All day long and'^every day one may freely bring here treasures of his woodland search and find their names, not by pick- ing them to pieces and laboriously search- ing among the dry technicalities of a dvisty volume, but by comparison with their living brethren." The Botanic Gar- den is open freely to all, every week-day. Harvard Musical College. Cambridge. A department of Harvard University. This great classical jMusic School has the highest standard possible, the most exacting examinations, and thorough instruction. It is under the direction of John K. Paine, who is recog- nized throughout the musical capitals of Europe as America's greatest composer, and most eminent native musician. Mr. Paine, with the true simplicity and mod- esty so characteristic of real genius, is quietly but effectively moulding a na- tional standard of music, and impressing upon the youth who come under his masterly method a love for Avhat is really good and true in music, as well as stimu- lating them to attempt to give correct expression to such musical instincts and ideas as nature has bestowed upon them. Healthfulness of the Back Bay. Accordino: to the testimony of so eminent an authority as Edward H. Clarke, M. D., the quarter of Boston known as the Back Bay is a healthful place of residence. He testified that among his patients there he had not had a sinffle case of t\T5hoid fever. Oliver Wendell Holmes, M. T>., gives similar evidence. Dr. Holmes, having written to Dr. Charles F. Folsom, then Secretary of th- State Board of Health, with regard to this matter, received the following reply: "As to the Back Bay land, there is no evidence of any conditions unfavorable to health which can amount to proof. There is so much space and sunshine that, on the whole, the mortality is the loicest in the city,— perhaps largely due to the character of the population." Hebrews. Boston has about 10,000 Hebrews among its population. Herald, Daily and Sunday. (1846). 255 Washington Street. This great popular newspaper began its publications August 31, 1846, with an evening edition, being then but a small sheet, with four five-column pages, and sold for one cent a copy. William O. Eaton was its first editor. It began as an independent news- paper, and has always been conducted as such. Its original design was to be neu- tral in polities and religion^and it became " pledged to no religious sect or political party, always ready to rebuke both spirit- ual and political wickedness in high places, and call the servants of the public to an account whenever they abuse the trust committed to their care." Edwin C. Bailey became sole proprietor in 1856. In 1869, several members of the staff of the paper, comprising Royal M. Pulsifer, Edwin B. Haskell, Justin Andrews, Charles H. Andrews, and George G. Bai- ley bought out E. C. Bailey's interest in the Herald. Of this company George C. Bailey retired in 1871, and Justin An- drews in 1873, leaving Messrs. R. M. Pul- sifei-, E. B. Haskell, ana Charles H. Andrews proprietors of the paper, and the same gentlemen constitute the firm to-day. In 1878 the present Herald Bxdld- ing was occupied. It is said to be the most finely-equipped newspaper office m the world, by those competent to judge. It covers a ground area of 6,200 square feet. It has six stories and a basement. The presses are of sufficient capacity to run off about 90,000 papers an hour. The managing editor is John H. Holmes, whose ability and experience particularly fit him for the duties of this responsible ]iosition. The dramatic editor is E. A. I'erry, and the musical department is in charge of Frederick P. Bacon, both of whom make their columns exceedingly interesting. In the New York Trihime of April 25, 1886, is a reference to the Bos- ton Herald, which may be appropriately quoted here. It is as follows: "A.M. Gibson, the newspaper writer, with whom I was talking about Boston yesterday, he having just returned from there, said to me: ' It requires a pretty big stretch of imagination and a personal visit to Boston for a New Yorker to understand what a city there is over there. I confess that I was amazed when a friend took his map and with a string showed me that within a radius of eighteen miles of Faneuil Hall there are 900,000 inhabitants. I would scarcely have believed it. You can get some idea of the size of the city from the growth of the newspaper requirements. The Boston Herald has sixty reporters on its city staff. I doubt if there is a news- paper in New York that has more. They are all paid a salary, the lowest weekly stipend being $20." The circulation of the Herald is now as follows: Daily, 108,- 304; Sunday, 84,872. Home Journal. 403 Washington Street. Samuel T. Cobb & Co., editors 246 HOR-JOU and proprietors; W. Wallace Waugh, manager, rublished every Saturday morning. The Ifotne JonriuU is a bright, cleanly, family paper, bearing everj' evi- dence of thrift, as it deserves. Its special features are its chronicle of society move- ments, its able editorials, its literary, musical and dramatic departments and newsy hotel gossip. Charles M. Capen is the musical critic, and wields an able and caustic pen. Among the most interesting contributions recently have been Luther L. Holden's notes of travel. Altogether, the Home Jo »r«.«7 furnishes a« attractive a table of contents as the most cultured reader can desire. Horseback Riding. Equestrian- ism is becoming more popular every year, especially among young ladies. A visit to any of the numerous excellent Riding Schools will convince any one interested of the truth of this statement. Lovers of this healthful exercise may also often be found in goodly numbers on the many beautiful avenues beyond the Milldam. The city, in laying out its various parks and avenues, has thus far utterly ignored the claims of equestrians. There are, however, several very pleasant and pic- turesque bridle-paths laid out through the fields and woods of Brookline and Longwood, on private grounds, and the public avenues of those beautiful subur- ban districts are admirably fitted for horseback riding. Leaving the dust of Beacon Street, one can branch off into shaded, retired roads and enjoy this ex- ercise to the best advantage. Jamaica riain, — in the vicinity of Jamaica Pond, —the Chestnut Kill Reservoir Park, and other suburbs are popular with eques- trians. Horse-Car Excursions. Among the pleasant excursions to be made at trifling cost by the open horse-cars are the following, (the faie being five cents, or not more than one cent a mile for all the long routes except to Milton, which is a ten-cent fare): Take a car with the sign Dorchester upon it as it turns from Temple Place up Tremont Street, beside the Common. The distance is nearly fiAe miles, and the views after passing (Trove Hall are beautiful. Take any car iiinrkod Oakland Garden, or West Roxbury Park, at Temple Place, corner Tremont Street, and the ride will be found extremely en- joyable. At the terminus of this line one can enjoy the natural beauties of the great West Roxbury (Franklin) Park, or visit Oakland Garden, with its theatre, cafes, profnenades, etc. A pleasant ride is that to Milton (aliout six miles) throui'h beautiful suburbs, and ])ast fine old estates, cars for which route leave the corner of Washington and Bedford Streets every half hour. Other charming rides may be enjoyed by taking a Brook- line horse-car near the Tremont House on Tremont Street; Forest Hills, from Tremont House; Jamaica Plain, from Tremont House; South Boston, to City lV)int, from Scollay Scpuire or Park Square. Other long rides are those to Cambridge, Mount Auburn, Revere Beach, Lynn, Somerville, Chelsea, Arlington, etc. (The places mentioned in this list will be found described more fully under their respective names). Hospitals* The three principal hosi)itals of the city are the Massachu- setts, the City and tlie Carney Hospitals. A complete list will be found in another de|Dartment. Hospital Newspaper Society. This association providx'S newspapers and other reading-matter for the inmates of hosi)itals, homes, asylums and prisons. Boxes for the reception of such matter may be found at the various railway stations, or it may be sent to 113 Revere Street. Hotel Elevators for guests were first introduced in Boston at the Ameri- can House. Hub of the Universe. Oliver Wendell Holmes, in his "Autocrat of the Bi-eakfast Table," was the first to call Boston State House the Hub of the Solar System. The quotation is literally as follows: " Boston State House is the hub of the solar system. You couldn't pry that out of a Boston man if you had the tire of all creation straightened out for a crowbar! " Somehow or other the origi- nal expression has been changed to the " Hub of the Universe " and it sticks to Boston almost as firmly as its proper name. Ice Skating. Skating on ice may be enjoyed in "zero weather" on the great Jamaica Pond, (Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury District); Fresh I'ond, (Cambridge); and to a limited extent on the Public Garden Pond and the Frog I'ond on the Common, the latter resorts being reserved for children. When the ice is in good condition at Jamaica Pond — the best place to go for this sport — the street-cars of the Jamaica Plain line (Starting from Tremont House) carry a signal to that effect in the form of a skate J 'laced above the front end of each car. (See Boston Ice-Skatiu'j Club).- Italian Colony. There are in Boston nearly 10,000 Italians, mostly liv- ing at the North End. Journal, Daily. 2G4 Washington Street. Published morning and evening, with semi-weekly and weeklj' issues. It was established about half a century ago. It was formerly called Tlie Mercantile LAC-MOU 247 Journal. In 1841, John S. Sleeper, James A. Dix, and Henry Rogers were the pro- prietors, Capt. Sleeper being editor. As "Hawser Martingale" he had written Some very popular "Tales of the Sea." James A/ Dix was the next editor, and was followed by Stephen N. Stockwell. Col. Rogers did much to establish the Journal upon a secure footing, and suc- ceeded in amassing a large fortune, being come time before his death the principal proprietor. Mr. Stockwell Avas a man of rare ability. Col. W. W. Clapp is the I)resent editor, general manager and treas- urer, his staff including the following: C. F. W. Archer, John W. Ayres, B. Leigh- ton Real, W. E. Bryant, (night editor), H. R. Chamberlain, George H. Dearborn, Frank Foxcrof t, W. W. Hill, W. F. Hutch- ins, Arthur T. Lovell, AVinthrop L. Mar- vin, Stephen O'Meara, (news editor), Henry O'Meara, (editor weekly, dramatic writer;, A. C. Parker, Geo. H. Pratt, AV. E. Robinson, J. H. Russell, ^Y. H. Sanger, Z. A. Smith, C. B. Seagrave, Miss Grace W. Soper, Fred D. Sthnpson, J. P. Shee- han, A. A. AVilder. Col. Clapp is a jour- nalist of great and versatile natural gifts, scliooled by long experience, and has won for the Jnm-nal a reputation of which he may well be proud. It is an excellent type of a thoroughly New England news- paper for the fanaly, Iia;Crosse. This game is rapidly becoming very popular here. It was first played prominently in this city as one of the Fourth of July sports on Boston Common, where it 'drew many thousands of spectators. The games were played between an Indian Club from Canada and the Boston Club. It is now recognized as one of the leading games, combining, as it does, the best features of the other games. Of the Boston Indei)endent Lacrosse Club, Jamc s A, McGee is President and P. J. McLaugh- lin is Captain. The Cambridge Lacrosse Club has for President Charles C. Ab- bott, and for Captain Henry B. Hook. The Somerville Lacrosse Club's Presi- dent is W. H. Cummings; Captain, F, C. Ross. Lady Journalists. Among the ladies engaged upon the Boston press are the following: Mrs. A. M. B. Ellis ("Max Eliot"), Hrrahl; Sallie Joy White, Ad- vrrfiser: Susie Vogl, Woman's Journal ; Lillian Whiting, Traveller; Miss Hatch, Globe; Miss Soper, Journal ; Miss Al- drich. Home Journal; Mrs. Jenkins (" Jay "), Herald; Mrs. AVashburn, Globe, Lucy Stone, Woman's Journal. Latitude of Boston. The lati- tude of the city is 42° 21' 27.6" North, Law and Order League. As strangely as it may appear, notwith- standing every public official is popularly t^upposed to have taken an oath to aid in the enforcement of the laws, a society has been formed having for its object the careful, looking-after of the " ser- vants of the people " to see that certain laws are thoroughly and im])artially exe- cuted. The ramifications of this organi- zation extend through all sections of the city, and its influence is strongly felt. L. Edwin Dudley is the Secretary of the League. Longitude of Boston. The longitude of the city is 5° 59' 18 ' East, from AVashington, D. C, and 71° 3' 30 ' AVest, from Greenwich, England. Minot Light, on Minot Ledge, Boston Harbor, is a gigantic lighthouse, which is viewed with great interest by all who pass it. The first lighthouse erected here, of iron, was destroyed in a great storm, two men being drowned. The present granite structure was built in 1858-60. Longfellow wrote of it as follows: " The rocky ledge runs far into the sea, And on 'its outer point — some miles awav — The lighthouse lifts its massive masonry; ' A pillar of fire by night, of cloud by day." Morgues. Places of sad interest to numerous visitors are the Morgues, of which there are two, one on North Grove Street and the other on Harrison Avenue, (City Hospital Grounds). They are the receptacles for the bodies of those found dead in streets, harbor, river or elsewhere. There are generally a number of bodies awaiting identification. Mount Auburn Cemetery. The first burial-place to be laid out in the United States as a "garden cemetery" was that of Mount Auburn, Cambridge, in 1831, and although the plan has been imitated in other sections of the country Mount Auburn is still the loveliest spot for the interment of the dead, and the most celebrated cemetery in the land. Various causes combine to bring about this result. Its great area, its natural beauties, the age of its trees, the original and perfect designs of its gardening, taken in connection with the famous per- sons whose dust lies there, render it a place of sad interest to the thousands of people who visit it during every summer. It is evident that the memory of the dead is still kept green, as fresh flowers are placed upon many of the graves day after day. Here are buried Henry Wadsworth Lo'ngfellow, Charles Sumner, Charlotte Cushman, Erminia Rudersdorff, Louis Agassiz, Edward Everett, Anson Burlin- game, Nathaniel Bowditch, AVilliam Ellery Channing, John Murray, Hosea Ballon, and numerous other men and women eminent in life, and closely idpn- tified with the name and fame of Boston, 248 MUS At the time of the consecration of this cemetery, Charles Sprague wrote the fol- lowing fines: "We raise no shout, no trumpet sound, No banner to the breeze we spread; Children of clay ! bend humbly round:— AVe plant a city to the dead." Longfellow's lot is numbered 580, In- dian Ridge. The snow was softly falling on Sunday, March 26, 1882, when he was laid to rest, reminding one who was present of the illustrious poet's own lines at the time of the burial of Richard Henry Dana: •'We laid him in the sleep that comes to all And left him to his rest and his renown. The snow was falling, as if Heaven dropped down White flowers of paradise to strew his pall:— The dead around him seemed to wake and call His name, as worthy of so white a crown." When Charlotte Cushman visited Mount Auburn in 1874 for the purpose of select- ing a lot which should be her final resting-place, she was shown several en- closures surrounded by costly and impos- ing monuments. She remarked: "These are all grand and beautiful, but haven't you a lot commanding an unobstructed view of the great city?" She was in- formed that there were a few lots for sale near the tower. While she and the oflBcial were on the way to the place designated, the graves of some of her once warmest friends were passed, and at each she paused for a moment and related some pleasant memories connect- ed with their lives. Palm avenue, at the eastern side of the grounds, was reached, and, standing upon a little eminence, Miss Cushman exclaimed: "This is a delightful spot; see, yonder lies dear old Boston ! " The lot is numbered 4,236. There are notable works of art through- out the cemetery, among them Milmore's " Sphinx," the Bowditch Statue, the Bal- lon monument, and others, while in the Chapel are statues of John Winthrop, John Adams, James Otis and Joseph Story. An interesting feature is the Ossili Memorial, erected in memory of Margaret Fuller Ossili, the famous writer and reformer, who was lost at sea, 1850. (Mount Auburn is reached by the Cam- bridge line of street-cars, from Bowdoin Square). Music* Boston is generally con- ceded to be the musical centre of the United States, especially by disinterested musicians from abroad. Its great Handel and Haydn Society, the foremost oratorio organization in the country; its superb Symphony Orchestra, rivalling the best orchestras of Europe, conducted by Herr Wilhelm Gericke, acknowledged to be one of the leading musical directors of the world — ; its noted singing clubs — the Boylston, Apollo, Cecilia, etc. — ; its Euterpe Club for promoting the highest class of chamber music; its Conservato- ries and Music Schools, the most exten- sive in the country; its large number of resident musicians of national — and several of world-wide — fame, together with the high standard of musical taste pervading the entire community (which IS due in some degree to the excellent system of teaching music in the public schools), are important factors in im- parting to the city a musical atmosphere rivalling that of the capitals of the Old World. Within a few years a great and gratifying change has taken place in our musical affairs. For a long period there was no attempt made to develop or to encourage native artists or composers. On the contrary, everything was done to convince young Americans that they had no right to think for themselves in musi- cal matters. They were made to feel that being living Americans instead of dead Germans there was no hope for them. English, French and Italian music, they were told, was no music at all. There had never been any such thing as American music, and never could be. It was down- right nonsense to imagine for a moment that there would ever exist an American Avho could sing or play, but should such a phenomenal being happen to be born, he must perforce, sing and play only Ger- man music. It is not very creditable to our city that John Knowles Paine, the foremost of American composers, was not given a hearing by the Harvard Musical Association until after he had won recog- nition in Berlin. But now, happily, all is changed. The shackles that so long bore heavily upon our native youth are broken. To Calixa Lavallee may be given a con- siderable degree of credit for having as- sisted to emancipate us from the snobbery and toadyism that has so long prevailed among program-makers, who have seemed to recoil with horror from any work the name of which is in the English lan- guage. It is singular that it should have been necessary for a foreign musician to come among us to help stir our national and local pride, and to stimulate the growth and development of music of home production. But now that the great tide has turned ; now that an over- whelming reaction has set in, what may we not expect from our own musicians ? As an evidence of what has already been accomplished, we quote the following, from one of the ablest musical papers published, Freund's Music and Drama, New York: "A great many artists are settling in Boston, mostly young Ameri- cans, who have studied in Europe and have come home with their acquired stock of knowledge to spread the culture of music here. Boston is becoming the cradle of American musicians of promi- nence. From Boston there may one day arise the future American Beethoven," MUS-PAL 249 Musical Students. Boston Bwarms with students of music, who coine from every State in the Union to take les- sons at the various conservatories, music schools, etc., and of private teachers.

Observatories. The Observatory at Harvard University and that at Blue Hill, Milton, have many visitors. Offices of Harvard University in Boston are : the office of the President and Fellows is at 70 Water st. ; Ti-easurer, 70 Water st. ; Dean of the Harvard Medical Faculty at Harvard Medical School, Boyl- ston St., corner Exeter; Dean of Harvard Dental Faculty, Hotel Bristol, Boylston St.; Secretary "^ of Harvard Veterinary Faculty, 50 Village st. Old Corner Bookstore, Prob- ably the most noted bookstore in this country is the Old Corner Bookstore, at the corner of Washington and School Streets, where Oliver AVendell Holmes, James Russell Lowell, John Greenleaf Whittier, AVilliam Dean Howells, Julia Ward Howe, George Makepeace Towle, John Boyle O'Reilly, George Parsons Lathrop and other authors may often be met, as in former times Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Charles Dickens, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and many other celebrities gathered there. The building was erected in 1712. The firms of Booksellers who have occu- pied this famous corner, have been Carter & Hendee, Allen & Ticknor, Wm. I). Ticknor & Co., Ticknor & Fields, E. P. Dutton & Co., A. W^illiams & Co. The business is now conducted by Messrs. Cupples, Upham & Co., a firm of gentle- men who by ability and enterprise fully sustain the prestige of the far-famed bouse.j t Old Bookstores. The lover of old and rare books will find abundant means for gratifying his tastes in the noted antiquarian bookstores of Boston. Cornhill is the centre of this large busi- ness. At No. 60 on this street is Bird's Old Book Shop, where seekers after "first editions" and scarce historical and dramatic works make their haunt. Another well-known antiquarian book- store is that of Burnham. 2 Milk Street, under the Old South Meeting House. Old Buildings. At either end of the short thoroughfare of School Street may be foutjd old buildings of great his- torical interest. On the end cornering on Tremont Street is the famous old King's Chapel (1749), while at the end joining Washington Street is the building now known as the Old Corner Bookstore (1712). (On the latter site once stood the resi- dence of the troublesome Anne Hutchin- son.) A little above this building, on the corner of Milk Street, stands the Old South Meeting House (1729). Nearly opposite (where is now the St. Joachim store) stand the walls of the old Province House (1689). Returning past the Old Corner Bookstore and passing down Washington Street to the corner of State Street, w-e come to the Old State House (1748). Thence, proceeding through Wash- ington Street and, turning to the right, we are at Faneuil Hall (1742). Returning to Washington Street and keeping on until Hanover Street is reached, Salem Street is but a few steps to the left. Tak- ing our walk through Salem Street, pass- ing on the_way several old houses, at the farther end we come to the memora- ble Old North Church (1723), from the tower of which the lanterns were dis- played as a signal to Paul Revere that the British troops were to move on Lexing- ton. From here it is but a short walk to North Square, where stands the house in which Paul Revere lived. Old North End. The stranger will find a most interesting ramble by walking from the head of Hanover Street down through Salem and Charter Streets. On Salem Street is the famous old North Church where the lanterns were hung out. (See Historical Tablets.) On Char- ter Street is the old Copp's Hill Burial Ground, of great historic interest, and the old Phipp's'house. Palatial Back Bay Hotels. In the aristocratic quarter of the city known as the Back Bav or New West End there are three Hotels which for size, magnificence and sumptuousness of fur- nishing equal any public houses in the world and eclipse most of those in the United States. Strangers are simply amazed at the splendor of these great Hotels, foreigners looking upon them with equal surprise and pleasure as evi- dences of the rapid development of the resources of " the new country, where everything is done on such a vast and magnificent scale," and as a proof of the advanced taste, culture and refinement of the great and rapidly growing metro- polis of New England. It is but a few years since the territory upon which stand these superb Hotels wasa waste of water and marsh, while to-day the sur- roundings are such as no capital in the world can surpass in grandeur of archi- tecture, broad avenues and squares, and 250 PAR all the accessories that indicate the opu-- k'lice and hixury of the " merchant princes" of the second commorcial city of the United States. Now that it is be- coming tlie fasliion for the Enp;lisli nobil- ity and <;entry who visit the United States to take steamers direct for Boston, it is but natural that tlie hotels arranged for the accommodation of this class of travel, as well as for the Americans who make a stay of a few weeks in Boston eii route to the White Mountains or the hundreds of fashionable seaside resorts in the vicinity, should i>repare for their reception in the styles corresponding with that of the grandest hotels in the world. This the proprietors of the Brunswick, the Ven- dome and the Victoria are qualified to do, from the abundant resources at their command. The Hotel Brunswick was opened in 1874. It is located on Boylstnu Street, corner of Clarendon Street, near Copley Square, and but a few steps from the Museum of Fine Arts, Trinity Church, New Old South, and other noted struc- tures. The Brunswick covers over half an acre of land, is six stories liigh, and its exterior, of brick with sandstone trim- mings, presents a grand appearance. Tha building originally cost about one million of dollars. It is considered to be perfectly fireproof. The Brunswick is famed throughout the country for the elegance, taste and luxuriousness with which its rooms are furnished. It has nearly 400 rooms. Every suite is furnished with a bath-room. The famous Whittier ban- quet, given here in 1877, to commemorate the poet's 70th birthday, is remembered as one of Boston's great literary gather- ings. The Hotel Vendouie is situated upon what Harper's WockJy has justly termed " the most magnificent avenue in America." Commonwealth Avenue is two hundred and fifty feet wide, from house to house, with a wide parkway running its entire length, and lined on either side with some of the most palatial residences in the world. The Vendome has a frontage on the avenue of 240 feet, and on Dartuiouth Street of 125 feet, is eight stories high, its fronts, of white marble, presenting a most imposing ap- pearance. Its grand ban(iuet hall, 110 feet long, seats 350 persons. There are five other great dining-rooms. It has several parlors of large size. The Ven- dome was built at an expense of more than a million dollars. During the sum- mer of 1886 the hotel was elosed to the public for the purpose of refitting, the furniture, carpets, etc., being disposed of; and although the house has from the time of its opening been noted for the beauty and richness of its furnishings, the splendor of its new appointments far eclii)ses all former grandeur, and it is, to- day, proba1)ly the inost expensively fur- nished public 'house in America, every- thing from the basenuMit to the roof being entirely new and of the most mod- era and beautiful description. The Vic- toria is the newest of these great hotels, having been constructed in 1885-6. It is located on Dartmouth Street (just across the street frora the Vendome), and is one of the most attractive edifices on the Back Bay, which is famed the world over for its superb and varied styles of archi- tecture. The Victoria is of brick, seven stories high, and has been constructed expressly to give full scope to the plans of its proprietors for a model hotel on the Euroi)ean plan. Every well-established good feature of hotels designed upon this system has been retained, while all mod- ern inventions and imi)rovements, that can add to the comfort or luxury of its a])pointments, have been adopted. Of these palatial Back Bay Hotels, the - Brunswick and Vendome are kept \\\)i.m the American plan, and the Victoria on the European system. The proprietors of these three great Hotels are Amos Barnes and John W. Dunklee, whose ex- perience, judgment and taste abundantly qualify them for the prtmiinent and suc- cessful position they hold among the hotel proprietors of the country. (These Hotels may be reached by public car- riages to be found at all of the railway stations and steamboat piers; by Ven- dome and Clarendon lines of liack Bay cars, etc. Passengers arriving on Boston & Albany Railway will save time and trouble by alighting at the' Huntington Avenue station, which is within a few steps of any one of these three Hotels). Parker House. (1855). School Street, corner of Tremont Street. Estab- lished by the late Harvey D. Parker. It was the first hotel in the United States to be opened on the European plan of fur- nishing meals and lodgings separately, I'arker's occupies a unique position among the great hotels of the world, t)f- fering accommodations to the travelling public that are to be found in but few hotels. Its central location, its vast size, its excellent table, its elegantly-furnished rooms and sleeping apartments, its eleva- tors, and various other equipments are of the highest degree of comfort and luxury combined. Parker's is a great rallying- ])oint on election nights, and other occa- sions when important news is expected. Many clubs dine here. The proprietors, Joseph H. Beckman and Edward O. Pun- chard, are young gentlemen who have disi)layed tact, judgment, enterprise, and liberality in management. The rates for rooms range from $;i.00 upward; suites $8.00 upward. There are 325 rooms, single and eii suite. Of the office staff, J. Albert lUitler is cashier; Frank W. Oilman, book- keeper; Sebastian Sommer, asst.; Louis P. Roberts, James A. Fitzsimmons, room- " 1 clerks; Frederick W. Draper, night-clerk. " "I Paris Correspondents of Bos- . ton papers are Edward King (Journal) and J. Henry Hayuie {Herald).

Petty Provincialisms, The frood, i)atient and long-sull'ering I>oston- ian still encourages the hope that the period is not far remote when the burn- ing of a small, disused barn in the West Roxbury District will not cause half a million of people to be disturbed in their avocations during the day, nor aroused from their slumber at night, by the clang of alarm bells ; when the police will keep the narrow sidewalks of Washing- ton Street free from groups of persons who stand there for hours obstructing the passage of i)edestrians; when all cab-drivers will be compelled to carry lighted side-lanii)S, as many now do vol- untarily; when there will be a sufficient number of police stationed upon the Comnicn and Public Garden to make those grounds as safe to cross at night as they are during the day; when the various i-treet-railway lines will be re- quired to run Vox cars alternately with the open ones, for the benefit of elderly and delicate jiersons; when street-cars will not be kept waiting for a passenger who is walking leisurely toward the car, a block away; when the ])iatformsof street- cars on the inside— next to the other track — will be closed by gates, thus avoiding danger and delay; when bridges for foot passengers will "be erected at all grade crossings of steam-railways, l)y order of the railway commissioners, thus redu- cing the number of fatal accidents at such crossings; when managers of theatres and otlier places of anuisement Avill give the exact location of their houses in their advertisements, as well as the time for beginning and closing the performances; when ladies and gentlemen from the country will not insist upon walking four or five abreast, and clasping each other's hands, on Washington Street side- walks; when 1 uilding contractors will not occupy more than half of the street and all of the sidewalk while erecting new buildings; Avhen those who throw orange peel and biinana rind upon the sidewalk will be arrested, as they are in New York and other cities; when Devon- shire Street will be permanently paved; when i)edestrians will keep to the right of the sidewalk; when no one will be permitted to litter the streets and side- walks with circulars and other rubbish; and when carts collecting ashes and gar- bage w'ill do so early in the morning or late at night, particularly on the princi- pal streets. Pilot. (1838). 607 Washington Street. The first Roman-Catholic newspaper to be established in P>oston, — having been founded by the well-knowai bookseller, Patrick Donahoe, the Pilot has Iccoiue the leading and most influential Catholic paper in the United States, having a very large circulation throughout the country. It is edited by John IJojie O'Reilly, one of America's foremost young poets, whose fame is daily extending. He gives the Pilot a high literary tone, as would bo expected from a gentleman of his rare scholarly tastes and genuine literary in- stincts. The Pilot is read and enjoyed by those of every religious belief, its news is carefully and thoroughlv gathered, and is reliable. Mr. O'Reilly has ddodendrons, chrysanthe- mums, lilies, smilax and other products of the floral kingdom are so celebrated all over the country that the merest refer- ence to them is all that is necessary. Boston supplies New York with an enor- mous number of roses, especially, which seem to reach greater beauty and per- fection in the suburbs of this city than elsewhere in this part of the country. Safe Deposit Vaults. House- breaking has decreased considerably since Public Safe Deposit Vaults have been established, as many wealthy citi- zens now keep valuables in these strong fire-proof and constantly-guarded repos- itories. (The vaults are connected with the police stations by electric signals.) The principal establishments are the 254 SAI— SOL Security' Safe Deposit Companj^ Equit- able Building, Milk Street, corner of Dev- onshire Street; T'ni in Safe Deposit Vaults, 40 State Street; Boston Safe De- posit and Trust Conii)any, 87 Milk Street.

Clapp. As- a Saturday paper, tlie Gazette took the initiative in is.suing Sunday editions, eventually dis- continuing the' Saturday edition, and con- centrating all its forces' upon tlie Sunday paper. The (iazette has become almost a necessity to the cultivated classes of Bos- ton and its environs. The editors since its founder's time have been Col. W. W. Clapp, (now manager of the Daily Jour- nal), George B. Woods, Warren L. Brig- ham, and Colonel Henry G. Parker, its present editor and proprietor. Its con- tributors have included many noted writers, among them, B. P. S'hillaber, (" Mrs. Partington "), George H. Monroe, (" Templeton "), and others. The princi- pal features of the Gazette, which Col. Parker has developed into one of the most successful newspaper proi)erties in the United States, are its able and incisive editorials; its resume of society events of the week; the dramatic and musical crit- icisms of Benjamin E. Woolf, (who has won celebrity as a dramatist and com- poser and as a critic of great analytical power and masterly diction); the weekly sermon of Rev. James Freeman Clarke; a si)arkling New York letter written by Miss Jeannette Gilder, ("Brunswick"); together with able literary and art de- partments. M. P. Curran, the accom- plished journalist, hasfor some time been connected with Col. Parker's corps of writers. The Gazette occupies a peculiar and enviable position among Boston's favorite i)a))ers. Shaw Kindergarten Schools. A philanthropic Boston lady — Mrs. Pau- line A. Shaw — has established thirty or more free Kindt^rgarten Schools in vari- ous sections of the city, defravinir the entire expense herself." These' Schools enlist the services of fifty teachers. Many poor children receive her boiinty. Smoking Restaurants, in some of the hotels conducted on the European system there are rooms as- signed for the use of those gentlemen wlio wish to liy.ht a cigar or cigarette at table. Such smoking restaurants are to be found at Young's, Parker's and other hotels, and are known also as " coffee- rooms," etc. Soldiers' Home. (1882). Chelsea. "For v.iiat he was and all he dared, llememuer liim to-day ! " is the motto adopted by the noble found- ers of the S(jldiers' Home in Massachu- setts — Gen. Horace Binney Sargent, Gov. Alexander H. Rice, Gov. Wm. Gaston, Gen. Charles Devens, Capt. J. G. B. Adaius, and others — opened on Powder Horn Hill, Chelsea, July 2.5, 1882. The Home accommodates 111 soldiers, and it now contains that complement. Condi- tions for admission-: The apjilicant must be a resident of the State of Massachu- setts; must have served in the Rebellion; must be una])le to earn his living; and must not be in receii)t of a pension. The sum of $05,000 was raised for this grand Institution at a Fair held in Mechanics' Hall, Boston. Library, 2, .500 vols. Here is a most interesting Museum of War Relics. Superintendent of the Soldiers' Home, James A. Cunningham. Open to visitors on every day except Sunday. (Take WashingtonAvehue, Chelsea, horse- car to the foot of Powder Horn Hill, and a flight of 148 steps conducts to the Home). Possibly it may be interesting to quote here a table given by Francis W. Palfrey in the " Memorial 'History of Boston," relative to the representation of Massa- chusetts in the Rebellion. He says, " In consulting it, it must be remei'nbered that the32d, 33d and 35th regiments of infantry did not go to the front till after the 1st "of July, 1802, when tlie fighting of the Peninsula campaign, so called, was ended; that the 54th and 55th regiments of infantrv were not organized till 18G3, nor the 50th till 1804. . . . The 19th, though brigaded with the 20th, was absent from several engagements in whicli the 20th took part in" tlie first year of the war, and engaged at least once when the 20th was not :— Organization.

SOU-SUN 255 South Boston Canoe Club. Canoeing is becoming very popular, espec- ially with ladies. It is easier than rowing, and affords the best of exercise, develop- ing the muscles of the shoulders and chest. John Boyle O'Reilly is an ardent lover of this pastime, and has done much to make known its pleasures. The South Boston Canoe Club is at the foot of K Street. Joseph Frizzell is the Commodore of the Club. Suburban Old Houses. In the immediate vicinity of Boston the anti- quarian will find numerous houses the age and history of which will prove interest- ing. Among these are the Cradock House at Medford (1(334); the Deane Winthrop House (about 104!)) at Revere; Yeamans House (1680) Revere; Floyd Mansion (1670) Revere ; and others. Summer Homes of Theatri- cal People. Among the colonies of professional people who have summer homes near Boston are the following: Agnes Booth-Schoeffel, Mrs. D. P. Bow- ers, John Gilbert, Joseph Proctor, John B. Schoeffel, at Manchester-by-the-sea. Octavia Allen, Eleanor Cary, Eliza Weathersby, J. B. Mason, W. F. Owen, Nat. C. Goodwin, Jr., Harry E.

Fred Stinson, Andover; Ida Mulle,' Winthrop; Frank J. Pilling, Winthrop; Annie Clarke, Needham. (Edwin Booth, AVilliam War- ren, Louis Aldrich, Charles Barron, Mrs. Thomas Barry, and many other profes- sionals, have homes in Boston.) Summer Population of the City. There is a summer population in Boston (says the TrareUer) of a very distinctive and interesting character. Boston, as the gateway to the mountains and the sea, has thereby all the transient guests who are passing through to sum- mer resorts, — the wealthy and aristo- cratic visitors who, while in the city, so- journ at the fashionable Back Bay liotel, the Brunswick; and another distinctive class, composed of students, teachers, and other professional people, who come to Boston for a summer's w^ork as the Mecca of learning and of good library facilities. There is a large army of those interesting summer guests who come to Boston to combine vacatiim, sight-seeing, and literary, or scientific, work. The magnificent privileges offered by the Public Library, the Athenaeum (by the courtesy of Mr. Cutter), and by the Har- vard College library, attract a most val- uable and interesting social element to Boston. Students find that a summer may be passed here in comparative inex- pensiveness. It is by no means necessary to board at a fashionable hotel in order to enjoy Boston, nor to doom one's self to the Philistine horrors of a boarding- house. The furnished rooms to let supply a method of living that may be as exclu- sive and independent as one pleases, and as economical as his necessities indicate. The Bostonians, too, who stay at home in the summer find the city by no means de- serted. The streets are thronged; the open horse cars jingle merrily along; the evening entertainments of light ojiera and comedy are well attended; and moon- light sails down the bay or morning ex- cursions to Nahant and Nantasket offer their enchantments. It is out of the question that a seaport city so far north as Boston can ever be very warm, and the days are for the most part comfort- able in temperature and tilled with de- lightful interests. Sunday Courier. (i824). 309 Washington Street. It was founded as a daily paper by Joseph T. Buckingham, the first number having been issued March 1, 1824. Mr. Buckingham retired from the Courier June 24, 1848. Samuel Kettell was its next editor, and at his death Isaac W. Frye assumed the duties of the position. Afterward, George Lunt, the eminent author and poet, be- came the editor. Joseph B. INIorse fol- lowed him. AVith the close of the year 1866, the daily edition was discontinued, and a company was formed to issue a Sunday edition, as at present i)ublished. The editors have been AVarren L. Brigham, George Parsons Lathrop and Arlo Bates, who now conducts it with a high degree of literary and journalistic skill. The Courier is noted as having been the medium for a large number of eminent writers. Among its original contiil u- tions have been James Russell Lowell's notable " Biglow Papers," while such distinguished writers as Daniel AVebstrr, Rufus Choate, Robert C. AVinthrop, Edward Everett, AVilliam H. Prescott, George Ticknor and T. AY. Parsons have frequently contributed to its columns in past years. For some time previous to the publication of the Courier as a Sun- day paper Joseph B. Travers was associa- ted with its management, and is now its 256 TAX-TRE publisher and principal proprietor. Ho has succeeded in sustaining the high st.aulard early established for the Courier. Louis C. Elsou is the musical critic. Francis Cliasci writes the enjoyable dxA.- ludtic feu il/fdoji, following the late Joseph 15. Bradford in that capacity. Tax-payers. The number of Polls in ia85 was 112, 14U. Tennis. Boston is the only large city in the country possessing a Tennis Court. It is located on Buckingham Street, near Dartmouth Street, and is in charge of Thomas Tettitt, the celebrated court-tennis champion of the world. This court was built in 1875. Times, Sunday. 2o Hawley Street. One of the brightest and most readable weeklies of the city, is the Times, an old established newspaper, issued on Sun- day morning. Among its former editors have been Robert C. Dunham, J. W. Clarke, H. Irving Dillenback and others. Air. Dunham was for some years its pub- lisher, issuing a daily edition. Mr. Clarke's period was signalized by the publication of a series of articles upon the Moody and Sankey revival which at- tracted wide attention. The Times is now published by D. S. Knowlton, who is also its editor. Special features of the Sunday Times are its interesting ed- itorials on current events, society mat- ters, literary columns, news notes, dra- matic and musical departments. Its musical news and criticisms are ex- tremely complete and well written. Time. When it is 12 o'clock, noon, in Boston, it is 44 14 ' past four o'clock p. in., at Greenwich (England) observatory, and 36 minutes past eleven o'clock, p. m. at Washington, D. C. Transcript, Daily. (i830). 324 Washington Street. The oldest evening paper iii New England. The Transcript is the only really literary newspaper in America. It is conducted Avith a view to gratifying the tastes of the cultured peo- ple of" Boston and suburbs, and that mis- sion is successfully and admirably ful- filled. Nothing finds' a place in the columns of the Transcript that cannot be read aloud in the drawing-room. The move- ments of prize-fighters and others of that class are as utterly ignored as if they did not exist. The Transcript, however, gives all the real news, its facilities in that regard being extensive, and the very latest telegraphic dispatches are always to be found in its various editions. Among the editors of the ])aper during its existence have been Lynde M. AValter, Cornelia M. Walter, Epes Sargent, Daniel N. Haskell, William A. Hovey, and Ed- ward H. Clement, the present aide editor, who assumed the duties of the position in 1881. Mr. Clement's literary taste and unerring journalistic instincts well fit liim for tlie duties of editor of a news- l)ai)er of elevated tone. Eminent con- tributors have regularly enriched the columns of the Transcript — among thein E. r. Whipple, Starr King, E. H. Cliapin, and others— -and the paper is to-day a favorite medium for celebrated writers. The musical department, in charge of William F. Apthorp, a musician, critic, and scholar of rare attainments, is widely read. The dramatic column, conducted by Francis H. Jenks, is no less interesting. The art, literary, and other departments are attractive features of this model evening newspaper. Traveller, Daily. (i845). 31 State Street. Roland Worthington & Co. This popular evening paper was established April 1, 1845, being the first evening newspaper issued at two cents a copy. For quite a period, so Puritanical were the ideas of its first publishers, Messrs. Upton, Ladd & Co., that they absolutely refused to publish advertise- ments of theatres. Col. Worthington, to-day its chief proprietor aiul manager, early' identified with its interests, was instrumental in bringing the Traveller to the front as a newspaper, and it has for years been recognized as a cleanly, bright evening paper for the family. The bulletins now so generally to be seen in front of newspaper offices were intro- duced at the Traveller office. The Sat- urday edition is made especially attrac- tive owin§c to its excellent literary feat- ures, original stories and poems being presented, and as it is a double sheet it furnishes a very large amount of ex- tremely readable matter. The special features of the Traveller are a Review of the AVeek, a Mail-Box department, etc. The dramatic and musical columns are especially inviting, while the literary tone of the paper is high. The letters of Mrs. John Sherwood (M. E. W. S.) attract universal attention. The staff of the Traveller is as follows: Reuben Crooke, managing editor; William F. Whitcher, leading editorial writer; Stephen O. Sher- man, citv editor; Edward J. French, telegraph editor; Charles P. Bond, finan- cial editor; Arthur Colburn, dramatic editor; Fred T. Fuller, Legislative re- porter; Lillian AVhiting, literary and art critic; Duncan McLean, shipping editor; ]?enjamin A. Appleton, City Hall re- porter; Thomas F. Anderson, special writer. Trees. Every stranger in Boston desires to have jyointed outthe celebrated (Jink-go Tree (f4inkgo Biloba of Eastern Asia).' Oliver Wendell Holmes has made it known throughout the land by an fillusion to it in "The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table." Thousands of people go every year to see this tree, citizens aiid TRE-VAL 257 strang:crs alike being interested in its peculiar liistoxy, crowth, and foliage. The tree is on the Beacon Street Mall of the Common, nearly opposite the Joy- Street entrance. It is on the corner of this Mall and the walli the farthest to the left f roni Jt)y Street. It is plainly labelled, and can therefore easily be found. Tliis tree was transplanted "to this spot from the garden of Gardiner Green, formerly on Pemherton Sq. (1835). Otht^r rare trees on the Common — in additii.-n to the grand old American Elm {Uniui,'< Aiiii-ricaiut) tlie English Elm ( Uhnxis < 'antp'strU) and the Dutch Elm {Ulmius MonbiiM) are the Tulip Tree {Lirlodrxleitxirou.

Tremont House. (i?t2n). Tremnnt Street, cornf^r of Beacon Street. The Tremont is one of the oldest of the present hotels of Boston. It is conducted on the American plan. Its table is noted for its excellence, and its rooms are furnished witli great elegance. A tone of perfect comfort characterizes the entire estab- lishment, and one cannot fiiul a more desirable temporary or permanent liotel residence in the city. The house is espe- cially liked by English tourists, wiio find about it many ]ioints of resemblance to Iv' window (on Hereford Street) of the new residence of Hon. John F. Andrew (son of the " War- Governor " John Albion Andrew) at the comer of Commonwealth Avenue and Hereford Street, was brought from the Tuileries, Paris, France. "United States Hotel. (1826). Beach Street, between Kingston and Lincoln Streets. This house covers nearly two acres of ground, and has about 500 rooms. Numerous families residing in the countrv, or in the smaller cities, make their winter home at the United States Hotel. Its proximity to several of the principal railway stations makes it at- tractive to large numbers of travellers- It has a good patronage from members of the tlieatrical profession. It is kept on the American plan. Hon. Tilly Haynes, the present proprietor, manages it very successfully. United States Marine Hospi- tal. (Northern Atlantic District, port of iioston). (1800).

Fair rose the i)lanted hills f ehind Tlie good town on the bay, And where the Western hills declined The prairie stretched away. What care though rival cities soar Along the stormy coast, Penn's town, New York and Baltimore, If Boston knew the most ! ******* Bad news from George on the English throne : "You are thriving well," said he "Now by these presents be it known You shall pay us a tax on tea: 'Tis very small",— no load at all, Honor enough that we send the call! " " Not so," said Boston, " good, my lord, We pay your Governors here Abundant'for their bed and board, Six thousand pounds a year. (Your Highness knows our homely word), Millions for self-government, But for tribute never a cent." The cargo came! and who could blame If Indians seized the tea, And — chest by chest — let down the same Into the laughing sea? Forirhat avail fhe]>Ioiigh or sail, Or land or life if Freedom fail? The townsmen braved the English King, Found friendship in the French, Aiul Honor joined the patriot ring Low on their wooden bench. O bounteous seas that never fail ! O day remembered yet ! O happy port that spied the sail Which wafted Lafayette ! Pole-star of light in Europe's night. That never faltered from the right. Kings shook with fear; old empires crave The secret force to find Which fired the little State to save The rights of all mankind. The sea returning; day by day Restores the world-wide mart; So let each dweller on the Bay Fold Boston in his heart, Till these echoes be choked with snows Or over the town blue ocean flows. Let the blood of her hundred thousands Throb in each manly vein; And the wit of all her wisest Make sunshine in her lirain. Foryovi can teach the lightning speech, And* round the globe your \oices reach. And each shall care for other, And each to each shall bend; To the poor a noble brother, To the good an equal friend. A blessing throitgh ihe acres fhits Shield all i/nj roofs and. toivcrs! God vith the fathers, so iiith ks, Thou darlimj town of ours! PUBLISHERS' ANNOUNCEMENTS.
