Shepard expresses it: 81 knew there

Boom company, the Mississippi &
Rum River Boom company, the Pine
Tree Lumber company, at Little Falls,
and the Mississippi River Lumber COM
pany. This last company is one Of the
latest corporations under the manage
ment of Mr.. Weyerhauser. 1t bought
out the holdings of the st. Anthony
Lumber company and the Cross Lake
Logging company with its railroad at
cost of more than d million dollars.
To nearly all of these companies Mr..
Weyerhauser gives his personal at
tention. Every winter he visits at least
200 lumber camps on the Chippewa and
in other parts of Northern Wisconsin.
There is scarcely a. log landing on the
Chippewa that he does not visit before
it is broken in the spring to see that
the log records of the Chippewa Log
ging company are properly kept.
The personal characteristics of Mr..
Weyerhauser are a cheerful dispo-

is remarked by the lumbermen who APP
preciate the vast interests which de
mand his attention, and they marvel at

FREDERICK WEYERHAUSER.
The King of the Lumbermen OF
America.

Frederick Weyerhauseris the acknowl-
edged king of American Iumbermen.
His wealth is estimated at the same
stupendous figure as that of the rail-
road king-twenty million dollars.
Mr.. Weyerhauser was born in Nav
ence, Germany, just sixty years ago.
He spent his childhood in the Father
land. At the age of twelve he came
to America, and settled in Pennsyl-
vania. After residing in that state for
about ten years, Mr.. Weyerhauser re-
moved, in 1856, to Rock Island, Ill. 1t
was there that he obtained employment
in the business in which he was des-
tined to become famous. His first DO
sition was that Of an ordinary hand
in saw mill. He was then tWenty-one
years of age. Even in this humble ca
paclty his industry and ability soon
became manifest to his employers, and
in less than two years he was sent by
them to manage a retail yard at Coal
Valley, Ill. After experimenting the
yard for year, he bought it. Though
his income up to this time had not been
large, through economy and frugality,
qualities as characteristic of the man
who becomes rich as they are essential
to that reward, Mr.. Weyerhauser had
quite a snug little sum to his credit
But what was still more valuable, he
enjoyed the confidence of his employers
and all others who had business rela-
tons with him. Not long after Mr..
Weyerhauser had purchased the retail
lumber yard, his former employers
failed in business. Thereupon Mr..
Weyerhauser stepped in and bought
the mill plant. Here his career as
manufacturer of lumber began. He
conducted the business alone for a
while, but soon took his brother-in-law,
Mr.. Denkmann, into partnership, thus
forming the famous saw mill firm of
Weyerhauser & Denkmann, which is
still in existence. Subsequently Mr.
Weyerhauser became connected with
the Mississippi River Logging COM
pany. 1t was in this enterprise that
Mr.. Weyerhauser attained the promi-
nence which constantly increased as
the years rolled by. This company
was organized in 1870 for the purpose of
sorting the Chippewa logs belonging to
down river mills at Beef Slough to
save the mill owners trouble and eX-
pense. Mr.. Weyerhauser became pres
ident of the company in 1872, and so
successful was his management, that
the entire care of the business was en-
trusted to him, and each year witnessed
his reelection to the Office of president.
Mr.. Weyerhauser also became presi-
dent of the Chippwa Logging company,
an Office he has retained ever since. In
