if l sent a formal challenge it would be

Mclaughlin was as much surprised at

turned to another person and offered to

FOR OUR OWN GOOD.
The Rise in Wheat a Benefit
to st. Paul and the
State.
1t Will Raise Real Estate
Values and Improve
Collections.
The Farmers to Reap a De-
cided Benefit From the
Change.
An Era OF Prosperity Fore
Swallowed By Men Who
Know.

st. Paul and Minneapolis merchants,
real estate dealers, brokers-all inter
ested in the material development of
the Northwest, kept their eyes
glued on the Chicago wheat mar
ket last week and watched the
marvellous rise in the price
of that cereal with an interest far be-
yOnd the dollars and cents they may
have invested in the mad rush upward.
More than one let his mind slip back to
that cablcgram of A. S. Fairchild's, sent
TO the GLOBE ten weeks ago, and stat
ing that wheat would go to Sl.5O. Said
& veteran speculatOr, kicking shabby
boot against Third street arch:
Had | believed him-say, how does
champagne taSte?"
All. there was the rub. The last
three day have been full Of might
have beenS." Every man who didn't
buy wheat was telling his neXt-dOOr
neighbOr what he would have made had
he possessed the courage or cunning of
those who did win. The bucket shops
and other wheat-dealing establishments
of st. Paul and Minneapolis have
been crowded and until ''mar
gins" were called off on Sep
TENDER wheat the small fry pro-
fitted handsomely. Everybody agrees
that the rise marks new era of pros
perity for the Northwest, and that cities
and farming country alike are to feel
the throb of the pulse OF new enterprises
and rise from the depression that has
bound them down for the last twelve
months. In this connection the follow
ing letter from II. s. FalrchIld to the
GLOBE is of Interest,":
FARMERS ADVISED TO HOLD.
To the Editor of the Globe
Last June | cabled you from Europe
that wheat this year will go to Sl.50."
cabled this prediction specially-in-
stead OF Incorporating it in letter-be-
cause | thought it would attract more
attention and, perhaps induce some
of our farmers to hold their
wheat as long as possible. Wheat
was then zoe; to-day on cor
ner it touched 81. 80, but it mas sold at
Fargo on the farm at $l.07, making it
worth SI.IS at Duluth for milling, and
milling wheat, No. l hard, sells at
Minneapolis for Sl.10 to $1.13, and
The strong probability is that, from
shOrtness Of crops in Europe and Amer
lea and exhaustion of last years sur
plus it will soon reach Sl.5O on

MY prediction was based on my belief
from what saw and card that the crop
was shorter than. reported in most OF
Europe, FROM known shOrtness in many
Of the states, and upon my conviction
that before another crop was harvested
war on a large scale would rage in
Europe. Before war exists, be-

souANDERED oNA WOMAN.
How Forger Foster Got Rid of the
Funds He Stole.


Funds He Stole.
Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-The mystery
surrounding the disposing of the money
which Foster stole from the produces
graturity fund was partly dispelled to-
day. 1t was learned that the forger was
a gambler. and that he had for the past
five years squandered large sums upon
the woman whom he represented to his
neighbors at Bay Port, l.. l., as his niece
and adopted daughter. Her name is
Lulu Beloit, though since her connec-
ton with Foster she has gone by his
name. Foster met the woman in Paris
about five years ago. He brought her
with him to New York, and the pair
went to live at Washington Heights.
He told his neighbors there sometimes
that she was his sister, sometimes that
she was his niece. He lavished money
upon her recklessly. Everything that
frivolous wOman's- heart could desire
was hers for the asking. Carriages.
rich dresses, jewels and the petitS
soupers so dear to the heart of the born
Parisienne, were at her command. The
scandal is said to have grown to such
proportions that the neighbors quickly
gave the couple hint to leave, hint
which they acted upon speedily. When
Foster went to live at Bayport he took
Miss BeIoit with him. There she passed
as his niece. The demeanor of the
pair was most circumSpect. 1t is said
that Foster and Miss Beloit entertained
splendidly and frequently at their es-
adjustment. Among the people who
are said to have partaken Of their hos
pitality are the Van Rennsaelaers, the
Roosevelts and other prominent men,
bers of the South side. The pair drove
out frequently. Foster passed for
millionaire among the people of Bay
port. Early during the week Foster is
said to have procured $1,000 at the Co
lumbia bank. He is said to have pledged
Gratuity fund securities for the amount.
1t is said that all the money he had with
bin when he disappeared was the

His honor said there was no doubt but
what Pitcher had committed grave

When he had got thirty feet away from

very timd and scarcely advanced at
all. AT length he grew bolder, and
finally made the perilous distance Of
800 feet to the next pole. The wire
must have been Mt least 20 feet from

narrating how a black-and- tan dog had

When the mouse had completed his
