On the evening of June 11,1816, Rembrandt Peale astonished a crowd gathered in his Batt;more museum by illuminating a rdorn with burnirig gas described as a " ring beset with gems of light." Gas has p,ocloimed the fuel of the future. Less than a year later, Peale went on"to use his stunning gas lamps to light the streets of Baltimore. He began with one larup on a dark corner at Market and Lemmon Streets (now Baltim6re and Holliday), Today, Baltiinore's gems of light are electric and spill into every corner of the city. But a's we look forward to the 21st century, natural gas remains as much a ^, fuel of the future as manufactured gas was in Peale's day.
