  • The Frisco-Man, January 1912
    THE FRISCO-MAN 49 seriously hurt. The train was stopped and the conductor got back in time to hear the old woman say to her husband, as she sat there in a foot or two of mud: "Yon old fool, I told 3-on you couldn't make it!" Anotlicr illustration is a plain case of ignorance. Not long ago n \roman, taking her first ride on the cars, was on one of the Prisco flyers. When her station was called, she picked up her baby, walked out and jumped off the Past-moving train. Neither u-as hurt, but 1 guess the little intelligence she had was considerably shaken up, for she afterwards said "she 'lowed, when they called her town, it wns time to git off." But if there are some accidents that happen to be ludicrous, tlie majority are so very sad that we beg and implore for some movement to be started to get railroad men to be thinking to do away forever with carelessness. Be so determined to put an end to the mangling and maiming of men that in a very short time railroad accidents will be the rarest thing on record. Let us hope and pray that the time has come Pol. Frisco men to realize how much this safety movement is needed, and that it all de- pends on them to make it a grand -,L iccess. Good luck and speed results for safety first. They Are Not "Spotters." E. W. SEGRAVES. I take great pleasure, as a member of the Safety Committee, in writing through TIIEFiusco-MAX an aiiiclc asking your co-operation in the movement.

Other Broadsides 17 Maps 18 Newspapers 18 Periodicals 19 Photos and Illustrations 19 Genealogy 21 Histories of the War of 1812 23 Maryland in the War of 1812 25 This document serves as a guide to the Maryland Center for History and Culture’s library items and archival collections related to the War of 1812. It includes manuscript collections (MS), vertical files (VF), published works, maps, prints, and photographs that may support research on the military, political, civilian, social, and economic dimensions of the war, including the United States’ relations with France and Great Britain in the decade preceding the conflict. The bulk of the manuscript material relates to military operations in the Chesapeake Bay region, Maryland politics, Baltimore- based privateers, and the impact of economic sanctions and the British blockade of the Bay (1813-1814) on Maryland merchants. Many manuscript collections, however, may support research on other theaters of the war and include correspondence between Marylanders and military and political leaders from other regions. Although this inventory includes the most significant manuscript collections and published works related to the War of 1812, it is not comprehensive. Library and archival staff are continually identifying relevant sources in MCHC’s holdings and acquiring new sources that will be added to this inventory. Accordingly, researchers should use this guide as a starting point in their research and a supplement to thorough searches in MCHC’s online library catalog.

Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865-1922), acquired The Times newspaper in 1908. In adding the most influential and reliable voice of the British establishment and of Imperially- fostered globalisation to his growing portfolio of newspapers and magazines, Northcliffe aroused some opposition among those who feared that he would rely on his seemingly infallible ear for the popular note and lower the tone and weaken the authority of The Times. Northcliffe had long hoped to prise this trophy from the control of the Walters family, convinced of his ability to make more of the paper than they had, and from the beginning applied his singular energy and intuition to improving the fortunes of ‘The Thunderer’.

    184 Maryland Historical Magazine Thomas Poppleton’s Map: Vignettes of a City’s Self Image Jeremy Kargon ritten histories of Baltimore often refer to thePlan of the City of Baltimore, published originally in 1823. Typically but imprecisely credited to Thomas WPoppleton, this map illustrated the city plan he produced between 1816 and 1822. City politicians had commissioned a survey just before the War of 1812, but Poppleton began his work in earnest only after the conflict ended. Once adopted, the work determined the direction of Baltimore’s growth until well after the Civil War.1 Although this street layout significantly influenced the city’s nineteenth-cen- tury development, a second feature of this document has also attracted historians of the city’s architecture. The map’s publisher’s arranged thirty-five small engravings around the border of the map illustrating public buildings in use or under construc- tion at the time of the original publication. They gave each illustration a simple title and provided additional descriptive information about the building, including the architect’s name, the building’s date of completion, and the building’s cost. These pictures are a useful record of Baltimore’s earliest significant architecture, particu- larly for those buildings demolished before the age of photography. Historians’ treatments of these images, and of the map itself, have typically looked at these illustrations individually.2 Consideration of their ensemble, on the other hand, provides evidence for discussion of two broader themes, the public’s perception of architecture as a profession and as a source of shared material cul- ture, and the development of that same public’s civic identity as embodied in those buildings.
