PILLSBURY, THE "FLOUR KING

Charles Alfred Pillsbury, the "fiour
king" to whom tho recent slump in
the wheat market is generally attrib-
uted, on the theory that he unloaded
his holdings, is the biggest man by
long odds in the region about Mime
apolis, Mimi. Mr.. Pillsbury is as
widely known as a philanthropist as
he is a -four factor. He is a college
bred man who has risen through
sheer business ability to 2 towering
success. He first opened his eyes on
the world So years ago in the little
town of Warner, n. FL. In 1869 he
went West and settled in Minneapo-
lis. He went about the milling flour
in scientific way, and in short time
mastered it. At that time there were
four or five old fashioned mills in the
town, and Mr.. Pillsbury undertook to
introduce new methods by replacing
some old stone grinders with steel
ones. In 1872 he enlarged his plant,
took his father and brother into part
nership, and by 1890 he had built up
the largest -four mill in the world. It's
capacity is $4,000 barrels day, to
produce which are required 10000
bushels of wheat. The new process
created a demand for hard spring
wheat, which has always ranked as
less desirable than the soft winter &C.
real. In 1890 an English syndicate
capitalized the concern, and Mr.Pills-
bury is its manager.
The Pillsbury mills are run on the
profit sharing plan. Some years as
much as $4,000 has been divided
among the employees, and by reason
of this fact labor agitators have little
function in or near the big mills. Mr..
Pillsbury is interested in politics, but
he has never held office, except for
10 years. service in the state senate.

1t is fact not generally known that
the first and last stand of the Confed-

the same man. A part of Bull Run
battlefield was owned by Mr.. Mclean.
After the this lannon's battle he decid-

would be less fear from the ravages of
war. By a strange coincidence, he
took up his abode at Appomatto1,
which subsequently proved to be the

esIt's very deceptive to judge of the
size or capacity of an object which is
so feet or more in the air." said an
architect to the writer as we were
passing the the royal courts of justice
few days ago.
'sNow, look at that clock" pointing
to the law courts clock, which hangs
about 20 feet above the pavement.
''It looks very small, doesn't it? Hard
ly big enough to hold man. Yet a
party of US breakfasted in the case
before the works were put in.
Everybody knows how deceptive is
the appearance Of the Westminster
clock. Looking at the dial from the
embankment or from Great George
street,it looks as if a man of medium
size could easily stretch across the
dial with both arms. Yet it would
take four pairs of outstretched arms
to cross it, The minute hand, which
looks like an ordinary walking stick,
is longer than the two tallest soldiers
in the life guards. The figures on the
dial are bigger than three year old
child, and the second dots are as big
as a dinner plate.

Curiosity a. to His Position I'm the senate

WASHINGTON, oct. 2i-Some specu-
latlon is being INDUCED in here as to the
attitude that will be assumed by Senator
Wolcott on his return from Europe, az
ter having failed to accomplish anything
I'm the way OF an international agreement
for the benefit Of silver.
Mr.. Wolcott is the leader of those
senator's from the silver States who re-
fused 10 bolt from the Republican party
when the st. Louis platform was adopt
ed. and who remained In tho party win
the hope OF bringing It back 10 their
way Of thinking or Of accomplishing
Something for silver through the me
dunn OF the new Administration.
Having had his way and having failed.
the question IS whether he will DO con-
tent 10 remain with the party and con-
0de i'm rs wisdom. or whether ne Will
conclude 10 be a belated convert 10 the
theory OF Teller Dubois 81 ais. that the
Republican party cannot be brought 10
free coinage OF silver by any sort ol
means. and will go over 90 the other
side.
This speculation acquires importance
from the fact that the course OF CON
gress during the approaching session may
he Influenced by IT, The fact that the
President IS going to call upon Congress
for financial legislation at the approach
ing session. and that hard fight to Sc
cure legislation IS contemplated. renders
the attitude OF every man I'm the Senate
important.
What can be accomplished in the way
Of legislation will depend upon the attl-
tude Of those men who. like Wolcott
profess LOYALTY 70 both the Republican
marty and TO free silver Their course
may be Influenced by tho position as
summed by Mt Woloott on his return.
