Was the Thlng.
A gentleman of so loquacious a reputa
tion as the barber should abound in more
tales reminiscent than any other, says the
St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The barber,
however, is a curious personage. le is not
so much reminiscent as he is of to-day. HMe
can talk off hand on politics, commerce,
base ball and racing, and-always remem
her-the weather, but carry him back a
quarter or half a century and he is very
like other individuals. Matters of to-day
are a part of his stock in trade. He must
be up in them, while the details of history
he may forget to such an extent that he re
cahlls them only after extensive rumination.
The searching of his memory, however, is
interesting, andt will pay the oarious. There
are in St, Louis a number of old barbers
and old shops, and their recital of matters
relating to their old-time business and old
time customers is somewhat absorbing. Of
the old shops, there are but three which
can now be said to be in existence. Others
in which was recited a great many of the
details of the early history of Mis
souri and the west are remembered
only by the "old inhabitants." The I
places which have passed out of being are
more numerous. There was the shop un
der the old Missouri hotel, on Main and
Morgan streets, a location which would be
as little thought of to-day as a hotel site as
Plum street and the Levee. There the
state of Missouri was organized and the
constitution agreed upon. T'he shop at
this place was owned by Capt. King, an old
steamboatitan. Another old place was at t
King's hotel, on Second and Vine streets, t
the shop in which was operated by Capt.
King, who had moved from the Missouri,
being succeeded at the latter place by Alex. a
Smith. Still another shop was at the Vir- b
ginia hotel, on Christy, Main and Second, e
presided over by J. HI. Gerhard, and in
which ex-Congressman W. H. Stone shaved. ti
This was in 184ti, and Mr. Gerhard is now n
proprietor of the Planters' house shop, to n
which Mr. Stone has transferred his cup.
The Motel Barnum furnished patronage for t
another old shop, ran by Frank Robinson.
All of these places are now anknown save
4. rLU ·-·mrl-s ýhl 1;-1 kh r -A --11a
to the people who lived then and to-day.
The oldest shop now is that under the
Planters' house, owned by Mr. Gerhard.
Next in line comes what is known as Clay
morgan's, on Pine, just west of Fourth
street, and next to that, Etteling's, in the
:Lsalede building, on Fourth and Olive
streets. The Planters' house one was e*
etablished in 1842, and the Claymorgan one
ten years later. The Etteling shop grew
out of the Claymorgan, being established
by Robert Wilkinson, who had dissolved
partnership with Claymorgan, and who em
ployed George E tteling, the present owner,
as foreman. Of the barbers, one of the
'oldest is Proprietor Smith, of the present
iouthern hotel shop, and Capt. Miller, em
,pleyed at journey work in the old Clasmor
gan shop. There have been several changes
F'a the time of each of these places. 'I e
i..lantors' house shop was started
by a man named Hall, who
was sacoseded by Benjamin Hickman. The
latter had it for thirteen years, when he
wa succeeded by the present proprietor,
Mr. Gerhard, who has now had it but two
years short of a quarter of a century. The
'Olaynorgan place, as stated, was started in
',1852, though it is supposed by many to be
,tbe oldest shop in the city. Then came the
4lssolution of the firm of Claymorgan &
Wilkinson, the senior of the firm then own
ing the shop until the time of his death,
which occurred in 1883. He was succeeded
by Joseph P. ltoeser and N. B. Reynolds.
The former has been dead now three years,
the latter becoming proprietor. At the
i@ttelhng the only change has been from
Wilkinson, the proprietor, to Etteling, the
'foreman, and the tearing away of the little
old frame shop and the erection of a mag
nificent bank and office building.
In those old days men who have since be
'Some prominent and wealthy were the chief
,patrons, but their shaving outilts seen to
day do not begin to compare to the one
used by the $10a-week clerk of to-day.
Expensive cups, brightly lettered, were then
'unknown. 'Ite cup was common ware.
. osting l5c., the brush was 25c, and the
sponge in the neighborhood of 50c. A very
respectable outfit could be had at a dollar
at the outside. How different now! If von
want anything at all that you will not be
ashamed to have the barber pull down, you
'must ray at least l$2 for it, and $5 is not at
all out of the way. From that you can go
to whatever your fancy suggests and your
pocket-book allows. In the time of the
shops of the period of the Planter's house
the mug was an ordinary white ware cup,
and its ownership was designated aRm
ply by a piece of white paper pasted
on the cup or on the receptacle in the rack.
It was not until about twenty-five years axo
that the names were put on in anything
more lnaetng than paper. '1llen glase labels
were stuck on the white or china ware, and
among the cups of this period seen on the
shelves now are those of hM. J. Steinberg,
General John W. 'l'urrer. G. B. Morgan,
John W. Kaufman, Judge J. I3. Valiant,
Governor P. (). Mtanard, Judge W. E.
Wagner, E. Michaelis, plain, without letter
ing, John E. Holmes, DJr. W. M. Carpenter,
Charles Johnson, W. H. Stone, L. J. How
ard, 11. ('. I'Upmreyer, Silvester H. Laflin,
and iH. I. Whittemore, the latter of whom
shaved im the Claymorgan shop the first
day it was opened. Since then the barbers
estimate .that the old shops have had at
least 100 sets of new customers.
Prices of shaving were also much lower
in those days. and, as now, the shops were
graded according to the price, though the
second -class ones were not by any means
what the second-clans ones were then. For
instance the terson who starts out now to
look for an old shop naturally goes to the
Levee. not knowing that the river man, the
traveler, the planter and everybody elhi
above the scale of a deck hand, airme up
town to get a shave and hair-cut, and
Fourth street in those days was pretty well
uptown. 'Ihus one of the old-time shops
was owned by J. P. 'Flori, located at Cristy
(then Green) and Third and Fourthatreets.
It was a five cent and six and a quarter
cent shop, and yet Mr. Flori en
joyed a first-class trade and died
leaving an estate of something like
$30,000. The price of shaving before the
war was 10 cents and 5 cents, the former
first and the latter second class. Hair cuts
were 25 cents where now they are 35, cents.
The only city in the country where the
charge was up to the present scale was New
Orleans, where you had to pay 15 cents. In
Baltimore the uniform price was six and a
quarter cents. so made on account of the
use of a 'panish coin, the name of which
was shortened to "ilp." Here, too, how
ever, there was Spanlsh money in a more
plentiful supply than American, in denom
matrons of 12)," cents and (hi; cents, shaves
being given for either, with American
money at five cents equal to the Spanish at
,ix and a quarter conts, so far as obtaining
the services of a barber were concerned.
In the early days of less than hal a dozen
of the ft. Louis barbers of to-day the man
who guided the razor heard some history.
Other people as well as the barber will talk
while in the shop, and Mr. Gerhard, of the
present Planters', tells of one very interest
ing occurrence of this kind. iHe was then
proprietor of the shop in the old Liadell,
that hotel then being regarded as the fineat
in the country. It was just at tho time
when Grant was placed in command of'
the army and had left the field of action for
the East, to rssaume his new position, stop
.ing here on otest, n. Bch *ld4 w
hen stationed here, was tt ha
s of the WUetion v aitAe bry .a, ad
was la twn to beoceped here
Gen. llceenoa oas. Grant **
thin and worn out, and td and
seedy in appearanuce. (Going to the Liadell
he called on Barber Gerhard to hate a
hair-out and be trimmed up and freahened
up generally. He had but little more than
got settled in the chair when Goen. Roho
oeld came in to see him, and, fining Grant
getting a hant-out, oonoluded he would
follow asuit. Then came Rosearanuz who,
eeing Grant and Schofield having their
looke cut off. climbed into a chair, remark
ing: "Well, I guess I'll have to keep you
company." Thus, in one old shop, were
three of the prominent generals of the
Union armoy, and all getting a plain, every
day, hair-cut.
"It is very difficult to recall special inci
dents and the characteristics of old custom
er, though in those days we met many of
the ptomuinent men of the country," said
Barber Gerhard, "but thereia one conversa
tion I will never forget. Schofield wanted
to have a talk with Grant, and Rosecorans
wanted to have a talk with Schofield. The
result was that they all talked there just as
if they were o:dinary business men
through with a day's transactions in gro
ceries or dry goods. I have always heard
it said that Grant was a poor talker. On
that day he was evidently completely
fagged out, torn and seedy in his attire,
and, I understand, awny from the
sent of active operations for the
first and only time during the war.
But talk! Iou can never tell me he
was lacking for words. He said everything
to the point: more in five minutes titan
most men would say in a day. I remember
particularly he stoke of a young staff offi
cer, recommending him highly to General
Schofield, saying ite would go out for an
hour to reconnoiter and return with a com
plete detailed description of the country,
where an older man would have taken a
day and iequired assistance, instruments,
etc. I do not remember the young officer's
name. but if he could have hea d what I
did [ think he would almost certainly have
had a well-defined case of what we now call I
the 'big-head.' "
Relies of the barber shops of a quarter to
a half a century ago are not by any means
plenty. The old mugs, as explained, were
I of common ware. with none of the fancy I
lettering of to-day, so that few of them -
have been saved, and those few have no
value. The Claymorgan shop, however, has
an historical feature in its bath-tube. They t
are of marble, the tirst imported from Italy,
brought here, probably, fifty years ago
though direct testimony as to the year is
not obtainable--by Mr. Claymorgan. They
were evidently very handsome then in de
sign and workmanshlp, though, having
been used continuously ever since, they are
moreor less stained now. There is also a
difference of opinion as to the cost of the
tubs to Mr. Claymorgan. Some of the tes
timony is that he paid very high for them. I
while there is as good reason to believe that
they came over as ballast and were bought t
very cheaply, very much as you would go to I
a bargain sale to-day. However that may
be, they are relics, and to that extent inter
eating to almost everybody. d
The letter-carriers of Burlington, Is., and
the superintendent of the car company have
made an agreement whereby by the pay- p
ment of $1 per month by each carrier they
are privil ged to ride anywhere and at any
time on the electric cares.

time Missonri Pacific and Rock Island exhibited
special weakno.s. 'the demand, however, soon
changed the temper of speculation, and Vander

throughout the forenoon and placed the most ac
tive stocks at large fractions above first prices.
The buying'power tl on fell away, a heavy failure
in London added its influence to the bear press
ure, and prices receded all along tha line, Lake
Shore heing one of the weakest, though as a rule
the Gould shares led the list. The decline was
not checked until the last few minutes, when a
feeble rally occurred. The market closed firm,
