train in Minneapolis on June %, 1867,
at the age Of IA. He was q strong boy,
without word Of English, but in day
or two he went to work as a chore boy
at the home of Ex-Governor Pillsbury.
His native name was unpronounceable,
so he became Smith. Soon he was good
enough to drive the coach He went to
school 4 little, and then entered Pills
bury's hardware store. Finally Smith
went into the store business himself,
with Pillsbury as his partner. 1t was
at Herman, Mimi, and they sold grain
lumber and farm implements. Every
year the young man was gaining bust
ness wisdom, putting more money away,
and becoming American1zed.
In Il few years the country store was
too small for his activities. He went
back to Minneapolis, and the first of
the c.. A. Smith lumber mills started
to cut logs in 1884. The business grew
and the mills with it, until they soon
were the largest In the world. In 1899
Mr.. Smith bought out the Pillsbury in
terests in the business. Since then the
big company has been composed of but
one man, c. A. Smith, who says he be-

treSS has been bcSieged with the atten-
ton of England's titled soDs, and her
name has been i'll the papers constant
ly. That she is wise to retire in the
height of her popularity cannot be
doubted. Edna May did quite the
proper thing to wed, and the simple
little ceremony which united her to
Mr. lewiston puts the finishing toucn
to her wonderful career. She and her
millionaire husband are going to live
a simple life in a manor house,
whatever that may be, all ivy-groWn
and with the conventional swans in
the lake and hungry deer in the spa
cious park.
Oscar Lewiston is the fourth and
Youngest son of Leonard lewiston,
once we'll known as n copper king"
Mr.. Lewiston, ST., and his brother
Adolph were both poor when they
landed In New York from Germany
many years ago. Their first business
venture was made under the ALIEN
bracing heading of general mer-
chants" but they soon began to spe-
cialize in two things oniy-coffee and
copper. BY degrees they became the
largest operators in coffee, and with
H. H. Rogers, of Standard Oil fame,
organized the memorable coffee corner
in 1901.
Watertown weekly leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1906-1908, 1907-07-05

After the marriage Of Edna May,
the beautiful American actress, to OS-
car lewiston, son of the New York
millionaire, at the registers office at
Windsor, England, the couple went to
a beautiful vineclad villa which the
groom had prepared for his bride.
There, shortly after their arrival, they
were photographed standing together
on the porch, handsome pair in a
framework of ivy leaves and flowers.
In 1896 little girl with parted hair
and wise, demure eyes went from SYRIA
cuse, where her father was, and is to-
day, a letter-man, to New York, where
she asked for a position in a chorus.
She was made understudy to Lucille
Saunders in Santa Maria. She was
recognized as a type of girl which is as
rare on the stage as q rose in a field of
Haunting peoples. That winter was
uneventful and Miss May did no more
than get nice little start. After a
brief American tour she went to Lon
don, where for several years she was
in mediocre plays which caused little
or no comment. In 1904 she was at
Days In New York in The Schoolgirl
and the next year she appeared in The
Catch of the Season Since then En-
gland has been her field Of action.
For almost ten years the little ac-

lieves he owns more standing timber
to-day than any other one man. Either
Mr.. Smith or James B. Walker of
Minneapolis owns most It is a ques-
ton of which is entitled to the title of
largest owner in the world.
When the vast woods Of Minnesota
and Wisconsin began to disappear Mr..
Smith led the way to the wooded slopes
Of the Pacific, where he now owns more
millions Of standing trees than his mills
can convert into lumber during his life
time And he is we'll aware of this
fact. He admits it, and is buying more
every week, almost every nour. He de
clares he will never sell a single acre
of timber land. His aim is to secure
enough standing timber so that his sons
and their sons and grandsens may
make planks and shingles from the
family forests long after the rest of the
North American continent has been de-
nuded
In 1873 Mr. Smith married Johanna
Anderson, whose parents came from
Wermeland, Sweden. They have five
children.

ENGLISH STEEL
MEN FORM TRUST,
Powerful Combination Seeks Eventually
to Rule Prices of World-Com-
petition for Carnegie.

LONDON, June 2S.-A great combina-
ton of iron and steel manufacturers,
similar to those existing in the United
States and Germany, is in course OF
formation in Great Britain, with the
avowed object of combating American
and German competition, which is in-
creasing yearly.
Nine big companies, headed by Wick
er's Sons 4 Maxim, and including John
Brown Il Co., which recently was
amalgamated with the Harland Y Wolff
company, have absorbed thirty-slN pre-.
viously Independent concerns, which Will
give them control, it is estimated, of
about 80 per cent. of the steel pro-
duced in Great Britain.
The details of the combination have
not yet been worked out, but it prob.
ably will be based on the principle OF
the German trust, involving the regula-
ton of prices. adjustment of the output
to the demand and equal distribution OF
orders.
What is primarily aimed at, it is as
serted, is q combination strong enough
not only to control the trade OF Great
Britain, but to dominate the steel trade
Of the world" The London representa-
tives of the American companies, how
ever, do not anticipate any material cut
IN their orders as a result of the move
ment.
HE satisfactory progress with Whlch
the negotiations are proceeding is large
ly due to Nicker's Sons Il Maxim, who
succeeded in bringing together several
of the companies heretofore the keenest
competitors.
There is much surprise in trade circles
that John Brown & Co., after amalgl-
mating with Harland, Wolff & Co.,
Should go into q combination headed by
the Nickers' concern, which is the Har-
lands greatest competitor.
TIE other firms included in the COM
binatiOn are Cammel, Laird & Co.. the
Northwestern Steel company, the Wear
dale Steel and Coal company, the Dor
man & Loag company, Guest. Keen &
NettlefOlds, the Baldwin company and
Stewart, Lloyd & Co. The combined
capital of the firms is over $13O,0O0,-
900.
1t is pointed out that it is extremely
difficult to complete such a combination
in England, as it is necessary to make
public all deals with reference to them
to the shareholders of the various COM
Danies.
