this should happen to be true it is a most
important fact, for the establishment of
a great plant in this country by the
Krupps would be of inestimable value.
The great Krupp Works at Essen are
known to be the greatest manufacturing
plant in the world, and are the develop-
ment from a small forge driven by water
power, which Friedrich Krupp estab—
lished between Essen and-Altenessen in
1810. The Krupps had owned for a brief
season the “Good Hope” Iron Works at
Sterkrade, but had abandoned them in
1803, selling out to Heinrich Huyssen of
Essen. It was while these Works were
being operated by his mother that young
Friedrich Krupp imbibed the idea of dis-
covering the secret of making cast steel,
which was at that time known only by
the English forge masters at Sheffield.
At his little forge this forerunner of the
greatest manufacturing industry of the
world worked with tireless energy, some-
times cast down, but generally hopeful,
until at last, during the latter part of
1814, he announced to the world that he
had succeeded. The secret of producing
and perfecting cast steel was his.
In 1.22 Friedrich Krupp, the possessor
of the greatest secret known to the world,
had met with such reverses that he was

and its avoidance through patience, self-

years I earned only sufficient to pay my
workmen their wages, and for my own
labor I had no other recompense than the
consciousness of duty done. With this
recital I desire to encourage every young
man who has nothing. is nobody and
wants to be something."
Alfred Krupp’s first great triumph
came in 1851. It was the opportunity
ofiered by the \Vorld’s Fair at London to
bring about a comparative test of the
products of English and. German steel
makers. It had been considered impos-
sible by English makers of cast steel to
cast an ingot of more than twenty—five
hundred weight under the most favorable
circumstances. Krupp placed upon ex-
hibition a finished and polished block of
steel weighing 4,500 weight.
Immediately the anlish steel makers
raised an outcry that there was some de-
ception about it, and that it was a fraud,
therefore unfair to bring it into competi-
tion with their product. They also
sneered at the assertion made by Krupp
that his cast steel could be forged, and
asserted that cast steel, if heated to the
necessary degree to subject it to the ham-
mer, would crumble and disintegrate.
Krupp immediately showed them that
his block of steel was solid and not a
fraud, and that he could not only cast
but forge his steel. He had the block
sawed in twain, after which pieces were-
cut from it and forged in" 1' all manner of
tools 11ml. 1' the hammer. Not only was
the great crank of an engine forged but
blades for knives, nail rods for gun bar-
rels, and fine razor blades were made from
it. The scraps were then melted and run
into a solid ingot again. This satisfied
the English steel founders that they had
much to learn
Krupp’s triumph was complete, and
Essen, which had hardly been known
outside of Germany, became known all
over the world, while Krupp received the
highest award of the exhibition, the
council medal.
The Goalen Rule was the guiding star
of this noble man, who, when asked to
accept a title, said: “No; I want no title
further than the name of Krupp.”
Thus Alfred Krupp builded for himself
a monument more enduring than marble
and more indestructible than brass. He
was always the kind and considerate
friend and not the proud dictatorial em-
ployer to his workingmeu. Thus his
name is graven on their hearts, and his
memory will live as long as mankind
endures.
If the Krupps should decide to come to
America to establish a great steel works,
the indomitable energy of the family can
prepare us to see an American Essen grow
up in our midst. .Alfred Krupp builded
his own monuments in the great mills of
Essen in Prussia; there is room for Fried-
rich Alfred Krupp to build a like monu-
ment for himself in an AmeriCan Essen.
The whole land stands ready and eager
to welcome him.

of course, every man in the regiment
knew the Colonel—the General he was

so well the men had all come to rely on

a sort of wistful luck on his face, .as

him, and the General looked down on him
very sobcrly; in fact, with a very great
pity. Just a few feetawuy, more or less,
men were being killed and wounded all
