In August, 1865, the Excelsior first and second nines played a match game of baseball on the West side. The first nine won by a score of 68 to 30.
In September, 1865, W. H. Beatty, artist, exhibited a gallery of fine paintings at 210 South Clark street. At this date, also, Giles Brothers opened an art gallery on Clark street.
In September, 1865, Thomas Foley and John W. Coons played a match game of billiards-1,500 points, four-ball carom game. One thousand persons witnessed this interesting performance. Mr. Coons gave Mr. Foley 400 points, but the latter won by 37 points. Mr. Coons' highest run was 143 and Mr. Foley's 93. Another game was played by Charles Frink, of Chicago, and Joseph Ver Mullen, of Detroit. This game was also for 1,500 points, four- ball carom, for $250 a side. Ver Mullen gave Frink 400 points and won by 117. The winner's average was 1412 points. Ver Mullen's highest runs were 136, 110 and 104. Frink's highest runs were 55, 53 and 52.

THE INFIRMARY - THE WORLD'S FAIR - SPANISH- AMERICAN WAR-LATE BANKING - MARQUETTE CLUB-SEAL OF CHICAGO-HAMILTON CLUB
W HEN the Legislature of Illinois in 1907 enacted a law authorizing the State Board of Charities to take charge of and care for all insane persons confined in county institu- tions, it became necessary for Cook county to build a new infirmary. Before the insane asylum at Dunning could be turned over to the State the inmates of the old infirmary and consumptive hospital had to be removed from the county farm, on which the asy- lum was located.
Upon the passage of the law the County Board set about seeking a new site for the poorhouse. One was found at Oak Forest, three miles southwest of Blue Island and nineteen miles from the center of the business district of Chicago, and its purchase was effected in December, 1907, at a cost of $33,624. It consists of 255 acres of high, rolling land, one-third of which is covered with medium growth black and white oaks.
Architects Holabird & Roche were engaged to prepare plans for the grounds and buildings and also for a new consumptive hospital. It was estimated that these improvements would cost $2,000,000. On April 7, 1908, a proposition to issue bonds to this amount was approved by the people of Cook county by a vote of three to one.
After they had prepared their original plans the architects visited the Eastern states for the purpose of conferring with the managing officials of almshouses and other charitable institutions and asking for their criticisms and suggestions. The plans were exhibited at the National Conference of Charities and Corrections held in Rich- mond, Va., in May, 1908, where they were submitted to and scru- tinized by the leading charity workers of the country. In October the plans were laid before the Illinois State Conference of Charities at Rock Island, Ill. Local experts in charity work were also asked to examine and criticise the plans. As the result of the various criticisms and suggestions some important changes were made for improving the plans and broadening the scope of the work of the institution.
The main group of buildings is located in the wooded portion of the farm, which is twenty to thirty feet higher than the east two- thirds of the tract of land purchased. The eastern portion of the farm is open prairie land under cultivation, except a strip of low ground running through it. In the lowest depression an artificial lake will be made by shallow excavations and the other low ground will be drained into it.

HISTORY OF COOK COUNTY
In the general scheme the buildings are arranged on the block plan, consisting of small structures located apart from each other but connected by covered arcades. The inmates of the institution will be housed in separate structures or ward units with a capacity for 160 persons. Each ward unit consists of two buildings con- nected in front with an open porch and an enclosed corridor. Each building is two stories in height and each story contains a ward consisting of a dormitory with forty beds and a day room. The ward units are arranged in two rows 150 feet apart, on an axis running nearly north and south.
Intersecting this main axis near the center and crossing it at right angles is the axis on which are located the service and administra- tion buildings, the general hospital, homes for superintendents and nurses and the wards for irresponsibles.
At the intersection of the two axes is located the chapel, sur- rounded by an ornamental garden, which in turn is enclosed by cloisterlike communicating corridors, forming the ornamental center of the scheme. The chapel is well placed, both from a practical and sentimental point of view.
West of the chapel is the receiving and administration buildings, the homes for superintendents and nurses and general hospital. East of the chapel are the dining room, kitchen, bakery and daily supply refrigerators, and immediately behind these are the laundry, men's baths, workshops and the wards for irresponsibles, while at the east end of the east and west axis are the water and power plants. These buildings are grouped around a common service ward and so arranged as to permit of economical means of convey- ing light, heat and water to the numerous buildings and to insure a thoroughly convenient means of food distribution aside from the dining room service. Except the irresponsibles and inmates of the general hospital all the inmates will be fed at the central dining room, which will seat 660 persons. The inmates of the irresponsi- ble wards and the general hospital will be supplied with, food through underground tunnels.
The east and west axis forms a dividing line which separates inmates according to sex, the males being cared for on the north and the females on the south. The hospital building, for practical reasons of administration, is located near the center of the scheme, as near to the administration building and service buildings as the proper consideration of exposure will permit. The hospital wards lie north and south, are exposed on the east, south and west sides, and receive the maximum amount of sunlight and air.
The nurses' home and the residences for the superintendent and medical officer are located in front of the administration building and hospital. The buildings for housing consumptives are located at some distance from the general group of buildings in the south- west corner of the farm and on the highest ground in it. The
611
HISTORY OF COOK COUNTY
morgue building and isolation ward are also placed away from the general scheme, near the driveway leading to the farm buildings.
For the convenient working of the administration, all communi- cating corridors have been arranged to run in uninterrupted straight lines as far as possible, and in view of the large proportion of in- clement weather, access under cover to all buildings on the grounds, with one or two exceptions, has been made possible.
The scheme embraces the following separate buildings: Admin- istration building, receiving building, service building, eight ward buildings, old couples' home, general hospital, buildings for con- sumptives, power plant, water supply, electric, sewerage, telephone, fire alarm and heating systems, bathhouse, workshops and men's club, laundry and sewing room, morgue, autopsy and mortuary chapel, nurses' home and farm buildings.
All buildings are two stories in height except the administration building, which is three stories, and some of the service buildings, which are single storied. All permanent buildings are of fireproof construction and of sanitary and durable materials.
The primary aim of the World's Fair movement in Chicago was educational. Nearly 30,000 persons contributed $1 to $100,000 to the glory and improvement of Chicago's tributary territory, and 750,000 Western people came to the exposition on Chicago day. Work to secure the site for Chicago was begun in 1889. Chicago's rivals were New York, St. Louis and Washington, D. C. St. Louis and Washington were smiling in their defeat; New York sulked. An Illinois company was incorporated with forty-five directors, officered thus: Lyman J. Gage, president; Thomas B. Bryan, first vice-president; Potter Palmer, second vice-president; Benjamin Butterworth, secretary; A. F. Seeberger, treasurer; W. K. Acker- man, auditor. Congress had advanced the opening of the exposi- tion from 1892 to 1893, and there were three years in which to get ready. Paris had had six. The site was located at Jackson Park. Root, who planned the White City, did not live to see it, but others took up the work that he laid down. At an extra session, in the summer of 1890, the General Assembly of Illinois authorized Chi- cago to pledge $5,000,000. Meanwhile commissioners were in England and on the continent, doing missionary work for the fair. Everywhere they were royally received. In the winter of 1890-91, while work was being pushed at Jackson Park, a party of United States naval officers sought exhibitors in Central and South Amer- ica. In the winter of 1891-92 another commission visited Rome, and Pope Leo XIII., hearing for the first time of the Chicago World's Fair, expressed a lively interest in America, and generous contributions were made by the Vatican. Everywhere the Chicago

HISTORY OF COOK COUNTY
Columbian Exposition missionaries were successful. The season of preparation passed quickly. In deference to New York's wish to celebrate the 12th of October, the dedication of the World's Fair buildings was postponed till October 22. There was a great in- augural ball and next day a great civic parade. Red and yellow, the Columbus colors, were to be seen everywhere in Chicago. The consummation of this celebration was the dedication itself. So large was the attendance that 15,000 troops, including artillery and cavalry, were scarcely noticed in the vast assemblage in the Manu- factures building. The spring months of 1893 were cold and stormy, but by May 1 the exposition was nearly complete. On that date the fair was formally opened. The Palace of Mechanic Arts, though devoted to ponderous and unornamental exhibits, was in- deed a palace in its exterior appearance. Inside, old Spain, young America, France, Germany, England-the whole civilized world- was represented in wonderful mechanical creations. The Machin- ery building and the Electrical building, isolated though they seemed, were vitally bound together by two avenues, one surface, the other subterranean. In the latter, historic exhibits marked all important advances in electrical science. The Transportation build- ing was one of the "show" structures of the exposition. The range of the exhibits within it was so wide as to be wellnigh all-inclu- sive. The Fisheries building was as unique architecturally as the exhibit was subjectively. No building was more popular with vis- itors of all classes during the fair. The department of mining further evidenced the progress of America. Its exhibit was at once a delight and a surprise. As they were most attractive in extreme purity of architecture, so in their contents the Art and Agriculture buildings vied with each other in beauty. The shoe and leather exhibits, the forestry exhibit, and the exhibit of dairy products and methods together would have constituted by themselves a fair that should have drawn hundreds of thousands of visitors from all parts of the country. Krupp's stupendous ordnance creations, the Rab- ida, with its priceless collections from the Vatican and from Spanish treasures of history, the caravels of Columbus fitly anchored in sight of the ancient convent, the White Horse inn, the Cliff-Dwell- ers' rocks, the elevated Intramural railway, the club houses of vari- ous States and governments, were all objects of great and never- failing interest. Not since the Tower of Babel fell, through the wrath of the Almighty, had such a confusion of tongues been heard as chattered by day and by night round the Ferris wheel. It would be as vain to do justice to a tour of the world in a few paragraphs as to attempt any brief description of the life, habita- tions, costumes and customs of the heterogeneous population of the Midway Plaisance. Between the Esquimaux village and Old Vienna, and between quiet existence in the bamboo-housed settle- ment of the Javanese to the hurly-burly of the Wild East and Wild

West shows, were such contracts as only volumes would suffice to properly present. One night Remenyi went into the Javanese the- ater. The manager kept the orchestra after the performance, and as they played their weird, quaint melodies the great Hungarian violinist interpreted them in music intelligible to occidentals. The Hollanders present wept. They were moved by this presentation of the difference between the music of their native land and their adopted land. One great lesson of the Columbian Exposition- there were very many-was the lesson that men, regardless of color, of nativity or of language, think pretty much alike and act pretty much alike under given circumstances. It was a liberal edu- cation in its proof that "a mon's a mon for a' that"-in its inculca- tion of the scriptural teaching that all men are brothers.
The causes which led to the Spanish-American war of 1898 need not be here discussed at length. Besides, to recapitulate those causes here would be to retell a story of tyranny, oppres- sion and revolting cruelty that all who read this know full well and would be glad to forget. After all, this is a record of Cook county, not one of Spain or of Cuba, except so far as men of Cook county may have had to do with them. All those bale- ful influences which brought on that brief but decisive interna- tional conflict had wrought their inevitable work of humiliation, of wrong and of destruction upon a loyal and long-suffering peo- ple before there was any occasion for armed men from Cook county to take any part in Spanish-Cuban affairs.
April 25, 1898, President Mckinley sent a message to Con- gress recommending a declaration of war. That same day Con- gress passed a formal declaration of war, the Queen Regent of Spain made a protest to all the European powers against the action of the United States and President Mckinley called for 125,000 volunteers. The last of the vessels of the Asiatic squadron left Hong Kong that day for the Philippine Islands, where a battle was expected, orders were issued declaring the harbor of New York closed to all vessels between sunset and sunrise, and Gov- ernor Tanner issued a mobilization order on the seven infantry regiments, Illinois national guard, and on Colonel E. C. Young's cavalry troops to gather at Springfield by noon on the following day. Before that eventful and prophetic day was over the First, Second and Seventh regiments of infantry and the First regiment of cavalry, Illinois national guard, left Chicago for the mobiliza- . tion camp at Springfield-in all, 4,633 men. On the 28th orders were issued by the War Department calling for the concentration of about 10,000 troops at Tampa, Fla. From there the force that was to invade Cuba would be taken. May 1st Commodore Dewey,
614
HISTORY OF COOK COUNTY
in command of the Asiatic squadron, almost totally destroyed the Spanish fleet in Manila bay. War was in progress. So far it had been the bloodiest war in all history, but it had not drawn much American blood. May 2, 60,000 Illinois people visited Camp Tanner at Springfield to see the militia in bivouac. On the 9th Secretary of War Alger ordered Governor Tanner to prepare two regiments of Illinois volunteers to be moved as early as possible to Chickamauga National park and announced that the artillery and cavalry of the State would soon be called to follow. On the 10th all the regular troops at Chickamauga were ordered to move south, there to be coalesced with the volunteer forces preparatory to the occupation of Cuba. The next day General Miles decided to take command at Tampa, preparatory to an invasion. The first fight between United States and Spanish soldiers took place on the 12th on Cuban soil. The First and Sixth regiments of Illi- nois volunteers left Camp Tanner for Chickamauga and Wash- ington on the 17th. The Second was ordered to start at once for Tampa. The Fourth and Seventh were ordered to move south im- mediately.
The First regiment, Illinois, volunteers, originally of the Illinois National guard, organized in Chicago, was mustered into the service of the United States at Camp Tanner, Springfield, May 13, 1898, with Col. Henry L. Turner in command. Four days later it started for Camp Thomas, at Chickamauga, where it was included in the First brigade, Third division, First army corps. There it remained till June 2, when it left for Tampa, Fla., where it did provost duty till June 30. On that day most of the regiment, which now was strength- ened by many recruits, started for Cuba, but the steamer on which it sailed was detained in Key West harbor till July 5 and did not enter Guantanamo bay till after nightfall on the 8th. The regi- ment landed on the 10th and reached the scene of hostilities next day. Two of its companies were detached for service in nursing wounded men and fever patients in hospitals, and on the 12th about eighty men from the First were sent with Miles's command to Porto Rico, where they were assigned to engineering work. But most of Colonel Turner's men were in the trenches before Santi- ago and on the 17th were of the troops to whom that city was surrendered. Meanwhile, so many of the men of the First had succumbed to fever or were in its grip that the bulk of it was sent on board hospital boats to Montauk Point, Long Island, to be cared for at Camp Wikoff. Thence, as many of its members as were fit for the hardships of the journey started September 8 for Chicago, where they were received with many honors and where the regiment, now numbering 1,235, rank and file, was mustered out of the service November 17. The First is entitled to historic distinction for more reasons than one. Though greatly weakened by yellow fever, it made a brilliant record and was warmly praised

Moulton, and was mustered into the United States service at Springfield May 4-15, 1898, and left for Tampa, Fla., May 17. Its destination was changed to Jacksonville, however, and it was assigned to the Sev- enth army corps, commanded by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, with which it participated in the dedication of Camp Cuba Libre. It was trans- ferred, October 25, to Savannah, Ga., where it was quartered at Camp Lee till December 8. Then the First and Second battalions
