Canadian wheat in, bond The company
has just concluded negotiations for a
large consignment of Canadian grain and
expects to buy more. Most of the wheat
will be transported. to Minneapolis over
the 500 road and in all probability the
flour will be carried east over the 500
and Canadian Pacific. It is proposed to
market. the entire product in the United
Kingdom including the bran and shorts.
After several weeks of investigation the
Washburn- Crosby company has brought
plans for grinding Canadian wheat to a
basis where it can be regarded a good
business proposition land at the same
time be used as an entering wedge in
bringing Canadian grain to Minneapolis.
Instead of quitting the proposition several
weeks ago when conditions surrounding
the transportation of Canadian wheat here
were so discouraging, the milling COM
pany has continued its efforts and finally
overcame some of the most difficult OBJ
stacles. This will be the first large ship
ment of Canadian wheat that has been
ground in Minneapolis since the milling
Industry here began to take on such mag
nifcent proportions. John Washburn OF
the Washburn-Crosbyc company and presl-
dent of the Chamber of Commerce says:
canadian wheat is a problem which
this grain market must face at once. Ca
madam exports of wheat are growing rap
idly. Under normal crop conditions, they
will greatly increase in the. next few

Payne Points at n, Paper Which
Bursts Into Flame.

Bursts Into Flame.
Before a large audience at the Metro
politan opera house, st. Paul, recently.
Henry S. Payne gave an extensive exhibit
ton of the powers of clairyoyance, mind
reading, spirit naturalization and other
bewildering sciences. TX
The entertainment opened with a spir-
itualistic exhibition in which set cab
met at the rear of the stage was used.
In one manifestation of mind reading
which Mr.. Payne claims to have origi-
mated. he reproduced upon a typewriter,
while his eyes were fblindfolded, the sense
and almost the exact words of letter
which had been written by DR.. McLaugh-
lin in distant part of the theater. Then,
in response to request in the letter, MIR.
Payne told the doctor the date Of his birth
and the province and county in Canada in
which he was born and the nearest post
Office to the place of his birth ~.-
But the most wonderful thing of all
was what is known as the Mahatma fire
test In the fire test W. T. Kirk, formerly
member of the city council, and another
gentleman who had been sitting with him
in the parquet stood at one side of the
stage with newspaper extended between,
and Mr.. Payne took his position at the
other side of the stage. Mr.. Payne ex-
tended his hand toward the paper, and
after a brief period during which he
actively worked his fingers, the paper took
fire, first in one place and then in another.
Then Mr.. Payne called upon members of
the audience to hold up paper, and the
fire trick was repeated several times.
