READING THE INDIAN MIND.
J.R BROWN Cave a Little Exhibition Las
Evening.

). r. Brown Cave a Little Exhibition Last
Evening.
j. r. Brown, the mind reader, has been
in our city for several days aud during his
stay numerous Sioux Indians brought here
as witnesses from the upper county, have
louuged about the streets and public places.
Brown had never tested his peculiar powers
upon this class of people and was DESTROYS
OF making some experiments. A private
exhibition was accordingly arranged by in
tsrpreter Fielder at the Merchants hotel
last evening, A dozen or fifteen stalwart
Sioux were c%ongregsted in
one of the parlors, where they squatted in a
circle upon the floor and announced that
they were ready for the white medicine man
to go on with his work. Maj. Ofiey, DR..
Miller, Capt. Raymond, J. N. Rea. VIM.
Fielder, George Crager, and a Press and
Dakotaian representative, were present.
White Ghost, chief of the Yanktonais, was
chosen as a subject, and after long and "a
tiguing labor, Mr.. Brown was compelled to
give it up and admit that the Indian mind
was not susceptible of Interpretation. 1t
%transpired, however, that that a misunder-
standing had existed between the operator
and his subject. The instructions to White
Ghost had been to fix his mind on some OBJ
.ject about the hotel, when Mr.. Brown, blind
folded, would lead him to it. The
Indian left. when he came to
Yanktop, q sick child at home about whom
he is much distressed. He had become
possessed of the notion that if he fixed his
mind intentiy upon the child, Mr.. Brown
would tell him how 1t was getting along.
This misunderstanding resulted in a dis
appointment all around and White Ghost
went hack to the circle Of his fellows upon
tie floor and Little Pheasant was substitu-
ted. With him Mr.. Brown met with per.
feet success ard succeeded in astonishing
the entire Indian outfit. Iron Nation was
also experimental upon and with him Nh.
Brown was fully successful. The exhibi-
ton closed with some experiments upon
Mai. Oily and Capt. Raymond, whose
thoughts were readily interpreted by the
operator. Mr. Brown says that these In
dams furnished the most difficult test eyer
presented to him. They are lacking in
mental development and their capacity for
concentration of their ideas is weak. AZ
er last nights exhibition the indians retir-
ID to their camp and held a council. on the
ubject which lasted until three o'clock
his morning. Each Indian presented his
heory and the final verdict was that Mr..
Brown was q very smart man, and had been
iven great gifts by the great spirit.

The Condition of the Lumber Market.

1ne COndlt1On Oh the LUMBER MARKET.
The present condition and future pros
poets of the lumber market may be
Judged somewhat By consideration of
the markets at the different lumber
centers. The Chicago Times thus sum-
marizcs the condition of the market in
that city last week:
The lumber interest was favored with
a steadily active demand irOln newer and
remote points. and the prospects of an
unusually light supply of logs during
next summer and fall tended to create a
strong feeling upon the part OF the yard
prOprietors, who, by concerted action
on Wednesday, advanced common build
ing stuff and fencing SOC per 1000 feet.
That the lumber production will fall
considerably below ordinarily successful
years seems to be universally acknOwl-
edged. but the probabilities favor the
Chicago dealers. as they are likely to re-
ceive ali they will need from Wisconsin
and Michigan. Minnesota is likely to
be less fla, Ored. and her &C the numerous
points west OF the Mississippi river will
necessarily, as WAS the case last year, tie
pend upon this city as base of supplies.
The Bay City Lumberman's Gazette,
of the same weeks market in that city.
says:
During the past week the lumber mar
ket has been very quiet i'm the valley.
and things remain i'm about the same
condition as at our last report. We hear
OF but few sales having taken place since
our last issue. There have been and are
at present few dealers in the market
from both elst and west, but they 90
not seem inclined TO buy ut the prices
asked by manufacturers, who are firm at
our last quotations, viz. 81, $l2, $23 and
$40, some going to 81, $l4 and $50 for
choice lots. AT the present writing there
is quite lively demand for shingles, and
large quantities are being shipped from
.he valley. Some Of the prices paid are
AS high as So 65, and it is quite probable
that in sympathy with the advance in
lumber there will be Il like advance i'm
the price Of shingles. A large manufac-
.urer in the SagInaws stated the other
81 30 to ~ per NJ.
The Northwestern Lumberman pub
lished tables showing that on january ]
Of the present year there were 537.6S4 So
feet of lumber at Chicago and tributary
points, or l7,S70.547 feet more than OIL
The commencement of 1877. The Sagi-
nav and Lake Huron lumber supply ul
the beginning of 1878 WAS reported as
33,23l,O75 fl ct larger than at the com
mencement of 1877. At the railroad mills
of Michigan and Wisconsin the lumber
on hand OH the 1st of january was 7.079,
100 feet less than OH the beginning O
1877. At wholesale distributing point!
the lumber supply ou January was re
ported as III, 7,432,3S5 feet, or 59,754,S9l
feet less than at the beginning of 1877
This would show a total of 1922 60 fee
less in tie beginning of this year thar

The Elections Monday.

The local elections which took place
throughout the state Monday, attracted
so little attention that the ballOting can
hardly be regarded as an expression OF
public opinion OH any subject whatever.
A very meagre vote was polled, and the
greenback people, catching the regular
parties mapping. succeeded in capturing
Grand Rapids. Jackson, Hastings, Cold
water and a few minor towns. The
Democrats also slipped in here and there
for the same reason. 1t was not so much
a question OF which party was in the
majority as which had most number;
living near the polling places, and Will
the least business on their hands. The
result proves nothing politically except
perhaps, that the greenback people art
still determined to stick to their organi
zatiOn and their imitation lunacy 10 th'
end. and that consequently iti nec' ssar,
| for the friends of honest money In al
parties to be up and doing.

The Fisheries OueSti0u.

We noticed last week that the bill intro
duced in Congress by Mr.. Williams provid
ing tor the establishment of a fish commits
sion TO regulate the fisheries of the great
lakes had aroused much indignat ion among
the fishermen and that strong efforts would
be made 10 defeat the bill. Since the writ
ing of our notice last week we have taken
occasion to consult with fishermen regard
ing the proposed law, and find them with
out exception opposed to it. 1t is the gen
eral opinion that the bill was originated in
the interest of j. P. CLARK Detroit seine
fisherman, or at least in The interest of De
trOit seine fishermen. The bill, if it be-
comes law will work positive injustice
TO all the fishermen in The state but those
above banned, and not only would the bill
wolk wrong TO an important class, but it
is manifestly absurd upon its face. TO
show this: Sec. 4 provides for license fee
of $40 on a seine, S. Oh pound net and
$40 Oh every 100 fathoms of gill nets. A
seine complete wOnld catch in one nigh,
more than l5O gill nets. So say fisher
men. There are many other points in
the bill equally absurd and unjust. The
fishermen in this vicinity have become
aroused and are signing petitions numer.
ously against il, and are writing letter;
to their members of Congress urging
their opposition TO it, which we trus
and expect will be successful i'll defeat
ing it. 1t is the opinion of those who
are the best informed upon the subject
that had Mr.. Williams made the subjec
careful study in all its bearings. ht
would not have undertaken to champion
the bill through Congress.
