Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-06
Known Through Wide Region

AS strange as IL may seem, the nrst brewery opened in Ne
braska, which was that of Mr.. Krug, was known from Fort Benton
TO the sea, from Pittsburg TO Last Chance guleh, long before some
brewedes with a national reputation gained since had grown to pro-
portions worthy oH recognition.
Fred Krug was bora near cassel. Germany. in 1888, When he
vas but 10 yesrs OF age he sailed for America. New York was his
nst stopping plsce, but cannot be said TO have been his first home.
1t was not city to his liking and the far interior was held out to
all young emigrants 4 5 a far more Inviting land than that along the
Atlantic eoaet
st. Louis was selected by Mr.. Krug as a place in which a young
man would have an opportunity TO move around and get into bust
ness. II proved a good move. for though he did not remain in the
city a great length of time as a brewery worker. he was there long
enough to make the acquaintance of Miss Anna w1uig. who after
ward became his wife, and with him celebrated in Omaha September
N 1905, a golden wedding anniversary, surrounded by>eight chill
oIeA ana hundreds of friends.
From ST Louis Mr.. KTug went to western Missouri, where he
became superintendent OF a small brewery. and later came to Council
Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-06

Bluffs. where he accepted the position of superintendent of the
brewery Of Hagg Bros.
After a short term in the employ of the Council Bluffs company
Mr.. Krug became convinced that Nebraska needed a brewery as
badly a a neglected garden needs hoes. Omaha was on the path to
success and he put his foot across the river in 1s59-the books say
February 10, never to retreat The brewery which he erected was
completed in six weeks" and was a one-stoy frame AFFAIR 22x4O feet.
on the tract which would now be the lots with numbers 1913 and
1915 Farnam street.
Rudolph Seller. the shoemaker partner. conducted a retail es-
Enlistment In the front part Of the brewery, while by hard work
Mr.. Krug managed to make from twelve to eighteen barrels each
week to supply the trade, which increased rapidly.
Fred Krug used to wheel beer around the city in a wheelbsr-
row" IL a remark frequently heard by business associates who have
a vague remembrance OF the early life of the young brewer.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-06

Krug's sons, William and Albert entered
the business as incorporators of the
Fred Krug Brewing company" with an
authorized capital of 1000. 900, the bus
mess, as well as the brewery, has been
enlarged. The capacity of the plant of
today is over 100000 barrels annually.
This is a remarkable contrast to the ca
pacity of the first brewery which Mr..
Krug erected in Omaha, which might be
said to have a capacity of $50 barrels an
nually, provided the grain could be Sc
cured and boats bringing hops from Bo-
hernia were not destroyed enroute or the
river did not freeze before the cargo
could be brought to Omaha on Missouri
river boats.
Besides the brewery, which has been
an influence in the commercial history Of
Omaha, as well as encouraging in early
days the growing of Matchmaking grains,
MIR. Krug has been a builder Of other
things and a heavy investor in Omaha
property.
Many substantial brick business
buildings scattered all over Omaha and
South Omaha were erected by the Omaha
brewer. Some were built before the va
cant blocks had another building on them
and their presence caused other buildings
to go up, generally of a better type than
would lave been erected had not the
Krug buildings made an appearance
which subsequent builders took into con-
s~ideration. Some Of the buildings were
sold not long after they were erected and
later a corporation buying Omaha prop
erty for investment bought the last of the
Krug buildings. except the theater. which
had developed from a building erected at
Fourteenth and Harvey streets.
The theater is only one of numerous
enterprises which Mr.. Krug launched in
Omaha. 1t is an evolution of Transmits
sissippi exposition days. When his ex-
position enterprise was proposed to mark
the beginning of a new epoch in Omaha's
history and the close of a period dark
with industrial depression, Mr.. Krug was
Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-06

one of its enthusiastic supporters.
A modern music hall and summer garden was built at Four
teenth and Howard streets, and after entertaining exposition visitors
for two years, it becoming evident that the public would support a
theater in the same location, the Krug theater was built Its archi-
lecture adds to the variety in a city like Omaha. It's German style
is quaint and it is one of the attractive buildings of the city.
Building of Krug Park
Again turning to the old country for ideas, Mr. Krug conceived
the Flea that an American city with such a cosmopolitan population
as Omaha possesses would enjoy a beautiful park with entertain
ment. high-class musical and refreshment features.
A tract beautifully located on high ground far above the city
was bought. 1t consists of eighteen or twenty acres. One of the
best landscape gardeners of Germany was secured and the grounds
were laid out for the "Krug Park" This was in 1901, and for eight
years the park has been one of the most popular places in Omaha.
Some of the best bands in the world have been brought TO Omaha by
Mr.. Krug's amusement manager and they have played engagements
lasting for a week to several months, furnishing concerts seldom
heard outside of the largest cities in the United States.
While some of the park tract was developed in its highest possi-
biites with flowers, shrubbery and gravel walks, a part of it was

MANY CLAIMS IN THE CAMP.

CONTACT Aug. 13.-The United
States Mining and Smelling company
with its forty million dollars in cap
ital, . it's dividends OF last year
amounting to four million and this
year promising to exceed five mil
lion dollars, has invaded Contact.
This powerful mining and smelling
company, owning the great mines at
Bingham and Tintic in Utah, a large
smelling plant neal Salt Lake, the
mines and smelter in Shasta, Cali
fornia, and the immense mining and
smelling plant in Mexico, has opened
its eyes and hands towards the COM
ing copper camp. This powerful
company has the best experts that
money can secure because it eve
makes a mistake when lit invests
its capital. Its experts have looked
Contact over. They were satisfied
that the future of the camp was all
that has been claimed for it and
more. They examined the Ivy Wilson
group of mining claims. They pur-
chased this group of over 20 claims
and made their payment. They are
to commence a systematic course of
opening them up under the super
vision of competent mining
This company waited until they
we're convinced that the railroad
meant to give transportation to this

action on its capital. 1t never in

money is what talks after all. 1t
means that eastern capital who wait
and follow in the wake of such a
powerful organization will turn it's
eyes towards this district. This is
one of the largest deals that has
been turned in the mining world for
two years. 1t is the only new terri
tory this company has acquired in
