FORTUNE TELLERS ARRESTED Three gypsy women strolled into town today and began canvassing pedestrians for the privilege of "Telling fortunes." As this is a licensed trade, the gypsies were quickly taken into custody by the police and arraigned in the police court, where they were fined one hundred dollars apieco. In default of the fine they were lodged in jail this afternoon. The authorities think, however, that the rest of the gypsy crowd will come to their rescue and pay the fines. The dusky damsels have their camp at Oro Dell.
