THE CLAlRvOYANT OPERATOR.
She Buys OF Sells wheat with a Twist
oS sbe Wrist.

She Buys OF Soils wheat with a Twist
OF sbe Vyr3st.
An odd sight is to be witnessed daily
on the Consolidated exchange. Visitors
for some time have noted q little group
of women who stand all day long in the
gallery at the Broadway end OF the
building, says the New York Mail and
Express. They also notice one particu-
lar broker on the floor who is continual
~ craning his neck and glancing at one
Of the women IN that group. Every once
in awhile, after glance, he Jumps INTO
the wheat pitt which is Just under the
edge Of the gallery, and makes trans
action.
Only the observing will notice, how
ever, any connection between his opera
tions and the woman whom he watches.
From 10: 30 O'Clock till three o'clock she
stands there, with one hand resting over
the railing. With slight movements of
this hand she gives orders to buy and
sell wheat to the broker. The number
offingers extended indicates the number
Of thousands Of bushels to be done, and
twist up or down Of the whole hand
tells the broker whether to buy or sell.
But that is not the queer part of it,
A stranger asked one Of the brokers,
friend of his, who the woman was.
Why" was the reply, that's the
clarvoyant operator. She's real clair
voyant all right and she reads the future
turns in the market and buys Or sells
accordingly. Or at least she thinks she
reads the future, and maybe she does,
for she has lasted longer than the ordi-
nary woman specula5or. She has been
at it for months"

Some of the good people of George
town, Ripley and Batavia go far in their
attempt to show how very ordinary
Ulysses Grant was, says Hanlin Gar
land in McClure's. A boy of 13 vino
could drive a team 500 miles across
country and arrive safely; who could
load wagon with heavy logs by his own
mechanical ingenuity; who insisted on
solving all mathematical problems him
self; who never whispered or lied or
swore or quaFreled; who could train
horse to pace or trot at will; who stood
sCuarely upon his own knowledge of
things without resorting to trick or
mere verbal memory-such boy, at
this distance, does not appear ''or-
dinary," stupid, dull or commonplace.
That he was not snowy or easily valued
was true His unusualness was in the
balance of his character, in his pose, in
his native Judgment and in his lxnowl-
edge of things at first hand.
Even at IS years of age he had super
stition that to retreat was fatal. When
he set hand to any plan or started upon
any journey he felt the necessity of
going to the turn of the lane or to the
end Of the furrow. He was resolute and
! unafraid always; a boy to be trusted
and counted upon-sturdv, capable of
hard knocks What he was in speech
he was in grain. Ii he said: Il can do
that" he not merely meant that he
would try to do it, but also that be had
thought his way to the successful end
of the undertaking. He was, in fact, an
unusually determined and resourceful

Abolish the BDshel.

How nice it would be if the bushel
could be abolished and all grain sold by
the pound or hundred The bushel is
obsolete, anyhow The bushel is an
an ancient device, in use before
weights were heard of, before scales
were invented, and it is time to abolish
it. 1t is abolished, intact; no grain is
sold by the bushel any more, 1t is
sold by weight, sold by the hundred,
but there is an awkward, useless Gus
tom of reducing the hundred to q term
called bushel, and the calling the
bushel worth so much which multi
piled by the number gives the value of
so many hundred pounds, as an absurd
and devious way Of determing very
simple proposition. The Pacific states
sell grain by the hundred. sell every
thing by the pound. even eggs, and
when the people get accustomed to
that system they never dream of going
back to bushels, dozens and other
antediluvian institutions. On the hum
dred pound basis the world could be
brought to a uniform system of weight
for grain at least, but on the awkward
and obsolete bushel basis it will never
iagree.-Farm, stock end Home.

THE WoMAN'S PARLIAMENT

The sixth annual session Of the Wo-
mans Parliament Of Southern. Califor-
MIA Is in session in this city. Delegates
are present from all portions Of the
southern part of the state, and the at
tendance is gratifyingly large.
Yesterdays program showed that the
women OF the parliament are eminently
practical in both their ideas and their
aims. Indeed, one of the principal i'm
pressions derived is that the womep's
clubs must have done much to interes.
the women Of their several communities
in the important practical, intellectual
and social duties of their sex
Yesterday. for instance, the women
discussed the question of dress from the
points of view Of economy, health and
general wisdom, and there car be no
question: but that the discussion was
beneficial both to those who engaged in
it and those who heard it.
If the Woman's Parliament were not

prosperity and its usefulness, and offers,

self somewhat between the devil and

cision Of the attorney general is a mas
terpiece of its kind. Says the Sun:
Read this opinion through forward
and then read 1t through backward;
read it again. skipping alternate para

each time the same idea, namely, that
the attorney general found the job and

preferred to wrap himself in a mantle
of obscurity. 1t is. in fact, master

this matter says:

in framing a tariff law and especially
to be sure that all laws tending to nit

repealed.

series OF years We have been pouring
into the lap of Europe Of our products
Wheat, corn. cotton, tobacco, gold and
silver-to the tune Of hundreds of mill
lions annually, and still we find in thou
selves indebted to the jugglers in thou
sands Of millions. That this condition
of things has been largely brought about
by jugglery no thoughtful person will
presume to deny. BY jugglery our ma
tional obligations, contracted in lawful
money. were made payable in coin By
another turn Of the jugglers' art, silver
was demonetized and behold, our obli-
cations became payable in gold. AND
not only national obligations. but all Of
our debts. Of whatever kind, are now
payable in gold. Will stop ever be put
70 this jugglery?
