ALBERT STRUBY, druggist, was born in Louisville, Ky., June 10, 1862.  His
parents, Henry and Barbara Struby, emigrated from Switzerland in 1843,
locating in Louisville.  Albert was educated in the public schools of that
city, and after leaving school entered a grocery, remaining there but a
short time.  He next entered the drug store of H. A. Pfingst, where he
remained until 1886.  In 1881 he graduated from the Louisville College of
Pharmacy.  In 1886 he embarked in business for himself in Portland (now a
part of Louisville).  Here he met with reverses; just six months after
opening, he was taken down with typhoid fever, and remained ill for about
two months; this almost destroyed the newly started business; with close
attention and good management, he finally succeeded in establishing one of
the best and most lucrative drug store businesses in Portland.  In 1887 he
was married to Miss Lulie, daughter of Frederick Forcht, of this city.
