Point Lookout.

This mine, owned by NJ. II. Lipman,
and worked for some time under Fl. d.
Rlppeto, was closed down yesterday
pending the settlement of the Wood
River strike. Two men will continue to
do work about the mine.
The above we clip from the SALT
LAKE HERALD of March 3D. Tine extract
appears ridiculous to Wood River
people, as not more than two people
have ever been employed on Rippeto
Lookout for four years. The idea was
given THE HERALD for effect against
the Wood River Miners Union boys
inter-Idaho.
Mr.. Lipman was asked in regard to
this yesterday. He says that for the
past twelve months he has never hired
less than five men, and sometimes as
many as ten, and that now the labor
troubles were adjusted, he intended
resuming operations again.

against 1850 900 in 1888, an increase
of 80 per cent. The gain was largest in
Montana, that Territory having turned
outfit 100000 pounds, against 100000
in 1888. The increase in the Lake Su
perior region was S.s00,OO pounds, and
the Arizona 100000 pounds. These
figures are of themselves sufficient to
explain the decline in price of ingot and
the wane of the power of the old Lake

Fortune Telling.

Nearly every kind of fortune telling, from
that practised by the ancient GrecIan soOth-
savers and Arabian astrologers down to that
introduced by the modern Spiritualists is
practiced in Chicago. The revealers of des-
tiny often rent elegant rooms in business
blocks and live in fine style. which they are
able to do by means of the large fees they
obtain from their credulous patrons. In
some cases, however, they occupy humble
apartments on inferior streets. where they
practise their profession and attend to do
nestle duties. BY far the larger proportion
of them are women, although the city has
quite n large number of men who, for con-
>ideration, reveal what the fates have in store
for mortals. These fortune telers are of al
most all the various nationarities represented
in the city. Some of them claim to have an
established local reputation, which they refer
to in their business cards and newspaper ad
vertis, ments. Others profess to have recent
