Digital Collections MISSOURI Historical Review The State Historical Society of Missouri COLUMBIA, MISSOURI THE COVER: The New Madrid Earthquake of 1811 was a factor in the slow develop­ ment of the Southeast Missouri Lowlands, according to Dr. Leon Parker Ogilvie in his article appearing in this issue of the REVIEW. Thirty-seven years after the earth­ quake, the English-born artist, Henry Lewis, sketched the community. A litho­ graph from Lewis' sketch of New Madrid appeared in Das Illustrirte Mississippithal, published in the 1850s. In 1923 a second printing of the book was prepared by H. Schmidt and C. Giinther of Leipzig and Otto Lange of Florence. It is from a copy of the 1923 edition that the cover illustra­ tion has been reproduced.

Jarrett and Harry Palmer, world-famed managers and speculators, returned from Europe. They had been searching for some attraction which would gain the favor of American theatregoers. After careful consideration, they decided that a ballet troupe would be just the right drawing card. As Jarrett explained the venture sometime later: Legs are staple articles, and will never go out of fashion while the world lasts. They top the list of the Beauties of Nature, and we will father an array of them that will make even the surfeited New Yorker open his eyes and his pocket and hold his breath in astonishment.1 Upon their arrival in New York, Jarrett and Palmer made ar­ rangements to present their ballet troupe at New York's Academy of Music. Before the production opened, however, the Academy burned to the ground, and the ambitious managers then contacted William Wheatley, manager and lessee of Niblo's Garden in down­ town Manhattan. Jarrett and Palmer told Wheatley of the attraction *John Russell David is currently an instructor in American Studies at Wydown Junior High School in Clayton, Missouri. Mr. David received his B.A. from Washington University, St. Louis, and the M.A. in History from Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville, Illinois. i Joseph Whitton, "The Naked Truth!" An Inside History of The Black Crook (Philadelphia, 1897), 1-2. 133 134 Missouri Historical Review they had secured in Europe and offered him the opportunity to join them in the production of a spectacular drama, in which their ballet troupe would be introduced using the stage of Niblo's. Once Wheatley had agreed to the proposition, the promoters planned to locate a manuscript which would satisfy their needs. Jarrett and Palmer desired a script containing a minimum amount of dialogue. The plot would simply act as "... a clothes line, as it were, on which to hang the pretty dresses, besides affording abun­ dant opportunities for scenic display."2 The play was found when Wheatley was contacted by Charles M. Barras. Barras, a New York journalist and dramatic critic, had recently completed a manu­ script entitled The Black Crook.3 Charles Barras conceived the idea of writing The Black Crook in 1865. The ideas he incorporated were not original; they repre­ sented a conglomerate of passages taken from operas, dramas and comedies.4 William Wheatley purchased the rights to The Black Crook from Barras for $3,000, intending that the several acts should merely form pendants for the brilliance of the ballet spectacles following each act. When the bargain was finally concluded between Jarrett, Palmer and Wheatley, the former two gentlemen agreed to supply the company; the latter, the scenery and effects, carpenters, scenic painters and costumers. The production cost $55,000, at that time an unusual amount, but the net profits of $660,000 in little more than a year easily compensated the investors for the play's initial costs. In the first few months alone, Barras garnered $60,000 in royalties from hopeful managers seeking to win fame and fortune with The Black Crook in their own hometowns.5 The plot of The Black Crook was a mixture of the melodramas of the period, Goethe's Faust, and Weber's Der Freischutz. A rich count (Wolfenstein) falls in love with a poor girl (Amina), the fiancee of a starving artist (Rudolphe), whom he throws into a dungeon. In the meantime, the Black Crook (Hertzog) makes a pact with the Arch Fiend. For every soul this aging sorcerer de­ livers, he is granted a year of life. Hertzog then manages to tempt the imprisoned Rudolphe with tales of buried treasure and a vision of his betrothed. Freed of bondage, Rudolphe sallies forth to ac- 2 ibid., 10. 3 Memphis Daily Bulletin, November 18, 1867. 4 Myron Matlaw, ed., The Black Crook and other Nineteenth Century Plays (New York, 1967), 321. 5 Ibid.

By accident he saves the metamorphosed Fairy Queen, who then becomes Rudolphe's guardian angel, helps him defeat the Count, and saves him from the Black Crook, who then loses his pact with the Devil and is borne off to hell.6 Neither the story nor the frequently trite dialogue was of much importance to the viewer.

Through this new online project, the Space Planning and Building and Infrastructure Archives, with the assistance of the University Archives and MU Management Homepage Libraries, displays scans of building elevations and architectural renderings that provide a historical progression of changes that have occurred on campus. This site provides factual information about when buildings were constructed, how each building looked at time of construction, when new additions were added, and what portions are original and what are additions. Please select the building and year you wish to view from the complete list of buildings and years of construction. You may also use the image map of campus to select a building.
