GILFILLAN BLOCK
in ST. PAUL TO BE
.RAZED FOR LOT

Another st. Paul landmark
the old Gilfillan Block at the
southeast corner of Fourth and
Jackson streets, one Of st. Paurs
first office BUILDINGS to pass
into history soon.
The old red brick structure,
which housed offices of some of
st. PauIs great architects, con-
tractors and lawyers of former
day, will be RACED this month.
The land is expected to be let to
the adjoining parking lot at
Jackson street and Kellogg boule-
ward.
The Gilfillan Block was built in
1881 by Charles Duncan Gilfillan,
who was prominent at that time
in st. Paul business and govern
ment affairs. He held number of
city offices, served in the legisla-
ture, built a number of buildings
and headed the company which
built st. Paul'S first waterworkS.
Later he sold the waterworks
to the city and come to Redwood
county where he operated huge
tract of land.
1t is to C. d. Gilfillan that his
son c. o. Gilfillan of Redwood
county, dedicated Gilwood Haven,
when he presented Redwood Falls
with it's new rest room and coun-
Gil building.
The old office building was de-
signed by E. P. Bassford, father
of the present st. Paul city ar
chitect, Charles A. Bassford. The
elder Bassford had his offices in
the building, maintaining one of
the largest architectural establish
ments in the northwest. At times
he had 80 men working in the
office.
Out of the elder Bassford's Of
flee came such architects as Cass
Gilbert, designer of the State
Capitol; c. H. Johnston, E. J.
Donohue, A. F. Gauger and a
large number of other designers
now in business in all sections of
the country. The present city ar
chitect also studied under his
father. j.
The Foley brothers-Michael,
Timothy, Thomas and John-dir-
ected hundreds of miles. of rail-
road construction from their of
fees in the Gilfillan block. Nc
Kenzie, Cook and Mclean, anoth-
er railroad contracting firm, also
had offices there.
Young and Lightner, one of st.
Paul's leading law firms of the
time, were Gilfillan tenants for
many years, as were Ford, Carson
and Metcalfe.
Then there was Joe Bartles,
after whom the oil town of Bart
lesville, Oklahoma, was named
later. He founded the Bartles Oil
company, competing with Stand
ard Oil in sale of kerosene. AS a
trademark, he colored his product
red, christening it "Bartles' Ruby
OIL" Old timers still will remem-
Der the red kerosene of their early
days.
Though nearly 60 years old and
vacant for the past few years, ex-
cept for a tavern on the ground
floor, its solid construction would
make it good for many years
more.
Joists supporting the floors
create a solid mass of timber be-
tween the floors, insulated with
slaked lime, and this, according to
the son of the architect, makes it
virtually fireproof.
Several fires have started in in
dividual rooms of the building,
but none ever spread beyond that
room.

Coral made the best Of 1t. Her
speech did not amount to much.
She suggested thai there might
have been some funny business"
in connection with the disaster on
the island, and limited that Trent"
might have had something to do
with it. Also she had lost her man,
and with him her prospects for a
comfortable married life with
plenty of dough-" for which she
had given up a good job elsewhere,
and what were they going to do
about it? That was what she
wanted to know.
1t was mastery piece Of act
ing, very typical of hard-rowed,
gold-digging young woman of the
type with which most of those
present were quite familiar. Stein
cut her off short:
Very well, your.g woman. We
will consider your case later. Per-
haps we can make use Of you, and
if so. you'll be well paid-but in
any case We'll look after your fu-
ture, so no need to worry" He
turned to one of the other men.
"Show her into that inner room,
Thomson-we may want to see her
again later"
Coral, as she went staggering
down the room, threw another
malignant glance at Gun. She real
lied that he thought there might
be trouble - possibly shooting
when the police arrived on the
scene. and had deliberately ar
ranged to get her out Of the way
when it happened. And she did not
love him for 1t.
The room into which she was
ushered was a small one. comfort
ably furnished, with French WIN
dows looking on to the garden. AS
she dropped into a low armchair
she noted that the wind had risen,
and was rafting the French win
dows. Then she opened the hand
bag she carried, and thoughtfully
regarded two articles it contained,
with a queer expression on her
face. Finally she arose once more
and tiptoed to the door. There was
a key in the lock which she softly
removed, and then, with her ear
to the keyhole, she listened intent
ly to what was going on in the
next room.

chairman. On his immediate right
sat his compatriot and fellow mil
lionaire, Bronson; on his left the
German, Gruchere, and the Italian
Macholesta- These four. Gun now
knew, had financed the scheme.
Then there was Watson, and two
other men who all had the same
look about them-the men who
were rigging the market. The re-
naming eight men had more the
look of scientists or mechanics. and
included Safely, the head Of the
Cannes air station.
They looked curiously at Gun as
he entered, and-one or two Of
them-greedily at Coral. Gun en-
tered with a slight limp, for fear
Watson should recognize his walk,
and he bowed stiffly. 1t was Stein
who broke the silence.
well, Captain Trent, this is bad
business. We would like you to tell
us about it at once, please-and as
briefly as possible"
He waved his hand to the bot
tom of the table, nearest to the
door by which they had entered,
where two vacant chairs had been
placed. Coral and Gun moved to
the place indicated, and Coral, who
walked with seductive little
swagger, sank gracefully into one
of the chairs. But Gun remained
standing.
IF you don't mind, Mr.. Stein,
I'd like this soung lady to have her
say first. She made a point of at
tending this meeting, but she isn't
really one of us. So thought when
she'd said her piece, she might get
out of the room and leave us to it."
The tone indicated that he was
not fond Of Miss CORTLAND the
look she gave him in return sug-
gested that whatever he felt about
her was heartily reciprocated. And
this time she meant it, for she real
ize that Gun was going to work
this dirty trick on her.
She jumped to her feet.
"Mr. Chairman, that's all bo-
loney! I'm right with you, anyway,
and"
The voice Of Stein cut In like
edged ice:
That will do, young woman!
Captain Trent is quite right. Say
what you've to say now, or not at
