"SHORTHORN" CATTLE.
To Be Sold at Public Sale.

The most important event in the way
OF the public sales of thoroughbred
stock since Col. Kings great sale at
Chicago in 1874, is the three days
series of Fl. F. Brown and j. j. Hill,
commencing with Browns at Mime
apolis, Tuesday, May s, who is Joined
6y the old veteran breeder, Col. w. S.
King, who is the first man that intro
duced ShOrthornS in Minnesota. At this
sale will be offered the finest list of
young bulls and heifers (some fifty-five
head in alD of Wild Eyes, Waterloos,
PPerls, Cherry Duchess, Kirklevingtons,
ConstanceS, ETC., that ever were sold at
one sale in this state. And every ami
NAL being guaranteed makes it entirely
unusual at auction sales. Any animal,
either male or female, not proving as
represented, can be returned and the
money refunded or another one selected
equally as good at no expense to the
purchaser. 1t is to be presumed under
the circumstances that no farmer or
breeder who desires to improve his
stock will fail to be present at this sale;
also all reasonable time is given to pay,
SO there seems to be no excuse for our
Minnesota and Dakota farmers not
availing themselves of such an oppor-
tunlty as Mr.. Brown now offers of i'm
proving their stock. The sale will be
held at the new and commodious sale
stable at the corner of Lyndale avenue
and Thirty-seeond street south. On
Wednesday, May 9, at North Oaks, Mr..
Hill sells fifty head of the best Bates
blood, such as Duchess, OXfords. Wild
Eyes, Barringtons, Thorndale Roses,
etc, and Thursday, the nifty Polled
Angus, making three days sale, and
the most attractive as we'll as the most
useful lot Of thoroughbredS ever sold
in this country.

THE TOP NOTCH.
The Mills Grind More Flour Than
Ever in a Single Week.

Ever in Single Week.
The Northwestern Miller in its issue
of to-day will say: The mills again
outdid themselves last week, making
the highest quantity Of flour ever pro-
duced in single week. The total out
put was 1Sl 800 barrels-averaging So
800 barrels daily-against It's, 200 barrels
the week before, and 120,500 barrels for
the corresponding time in 1887. Two
mills with a combined capacity of 600
barrels were idle when this run was
made. Somewhat lighter work will
doubtless be shown this week, as two
mills representing daily product Of
1,500 barrels were shut down Saturday,
and though one of them may be started
tomorrow or next day, the temporary
loss OF their output will be apparent.
The mills continue to run strong, but
there is some talk about having to
Slacken up if there is not an early i'm
prOyement in the flour trade. MillerS
claim that wheat is now SO high as to al
most prohibit milling, and that either
flour must go up or wheat down, else
they will have to stop grinding. The
market is extremely dull. and very little
flouriS being sold. AT the prices held
to no one seems to want to buy, the do
nestle and foreign markets being alike
in this respect. Most of the mills
have enough orders on hand to keep
them going for awhile, and the output
for week or two at least will probably
be large. The direct exports of flour
were again large last week, though ma
terially lighter than the week before.
The large volume of exports during the
past three weeks was attributed to ex-
tensiye sales made month or more ago,
and as the books are nearly cleaned up,
there is likely to be heavy falling Off
The exports for the week were 66,750
barrels, against S2,750 barrels the week
before.

ACCEPTS TWO CHALLENGES
The Powers Of Kate Eddy, the Spirit
Medium, to Be Tested.
PROF. J0HNSON'S EXPOSE.
a Very Lively Time Anticipated at the
Washington Rink Sunday
Night.

Prof. E. G. johnson, ''mesmerist,
psychologist and exposer of spiritual
ism," as he calls himself, gave private
seance, or rather expose, of what he
claims are the tricks by which people
are induced to believe in the possession
of supernatural powers by so-called
spirit mediums, for sthe benefit of rep
resentatives of the press, at the Wind
sor hotel yesterday. The professor
has taken up the offer of
Kate Eddy, the spiritualistic medium,
who stated in the papers she
was willing her powers should be put to
any reasonable test. The professor
proved to be aunervous little man, who
kept moving and talking constantly.
''Fhe spiritualism is all bosh." he re-
marked to the reporters. and laying his
hand flat upon light table, lifted it
and swung it about without the least
eXertiOn. Then he showed little slot
in the plain gold ring he wore which
fitted over little pin in the table which
could be pulled out with jerk, leaving
so small hole as not to be noticeable.
He was tightly bound with ropes, but
freed himself almost in an instant. He
showed up the slate-wrIting fake with
silica paper, gave table knockings by
merely putting rosin Oh his fingers,
the hands sound like mysterious rap
pings. He performed these and others
tricks with the greatest ease, and wound
up with the remark, 81 just wanted
to show you, boys, | know what I'm
talking about when l say | can expose
Kate Eddy or any other so-called
medium. L wanted to get bet out Of
her, but as she won't pat up money
Pll go upon the stage at the Washington
rink Sunday night and expose her just
for the fun of the thing"
Another individual has turned
up who wants to test Miss
Eddy's alleged powers. He is G. l..
Wood, OF st. Paul, and is test medium
himself, and SpiritualiSt as well, who
claims he will give Miss Eddy number
ne can give answers to sealed messages
held in the audience, and will produce
half-page essays in one minute written
upon any subject.
Miss Eddy was still indiSpoSed yestel-
day, and refused to see clllerS, but has
sent the following reply to Prof. John
sons challenge for publication IN the
press:
Minneapolis, May 2-To whom it may
concern: In view of the challenge of E. G.
johnson, prestidigitateur, TO expose any or
all of my manifestations, which propose to
give at Washington rink, Sunday, May 6, l
will boldly assert that he cannot perform any
of my manifestations, and that | will give
him $50 if he can so successfully accom-
plish them. | am Il Christian woman and do
not wager, and l claim that my work is bona
fide and without the pale of material means.
| will FIJI. Their add that / am firm believer
in Christian science as taught by its discl-
pies. The public servant and friend to all
humanity, KATE EDDY.

IN THE CITY's MIDST.
A Dreadful, Yet Common Enough
Occurrences.

Deserted wives are becoming too COLI
mon in Minneapolis. The cry of the
worse than widowed and the fatherless
daily ascends to heaven. In small
room in an otherwise vacant house in
South Minneapolis, with their furniture
all packed up ready to move, is family
which consists of the mother and four
small children. The quondam husband
is stone-mason now earning good
wages at his trade in Montana.
Not a penny has his wife received
from him in six months. 1t is an
American family, so that the cry of
imported pauperism" cannot be used
against them. They owe $50 or $40 to
the landlord, which they must pay by
this morning, OF be evicted. They have
decided, however, to move under cover
of the nights darkness in order to
avoid attachment of their scanty house
hold goods for payment of rent. Where
they will move, or how they they can
pay rent in any new quarters is puzzle.
The children, bereft of a father, and
forced to bear the burdens of life at so
early an age, are in truly pitable con-
ditiOn.
