Chicago, Jan. 31.-Many of the corn
bulls are looking for a setback in
prices in expectation of buying their
corn, which they have unloaded dur
ing the past few days at reduced
prices. The movement continues heavy
which acts as a check on some of the
large traders who are bullish at heart,
but think that values should work
lower while the heavy movement is on.
Receipts are above the average and
the short interest has been cut down,
but on bulges from the present level

BLIND FORTUNE TELLER
Out On GAINESVILLE Pike Kept
Busy All the Time.

II anybody imaglnes that Blind
Mary" the fortune teller, is not a
magnet. they are nightly mistaken
Our information comes from man
who has been there"-yes, been
there twice. and he may go there
again; not that he believes in the old
blind negro's power to read the fu-
ture. but he went with a friend who
does, or is willing to give her a
chance.
But there are hundreds Of people
here who have consulted the woman,
hut whether or not they were salts
fed is another question.
When the party referred to was
out there last Wednesday afternoon
he found swarm Of humanity Seek
ing light from the woman who
claims to be able to tell of things to
come. He counted thirty-nine men
and ladies in the yard and grouped
about the premises, all patiently
awaiting their turn. Many others,
like the gentleman spoken of, had
previously had a day and hour fixed
for revelation of hidden things.
but SO busy was Blind Mary that
other times had to be fixed. The
question with some of them was.
doubtless, IF the delay lasts much
longer what will Blind Mary have to
tell me?" The cost is only 20 cents,
and the quarters are certainly roll
ing in the fortune teller's direction,
whether she has superhuman vision
or not.
