THE ClAlRVOYANT OPERATOR.
She Buys or Sells Wheat with a Twist

She Buys or Sells Wheat with a Twist
 Of the Wrist.
 An odd sight is to be witnessed daily on the Consolidated exchange. Visitors for some time have noted a 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 pit, which is just under the edge of the gallery, and makes a 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 a 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, a friend of his, who the woman was
 "Why," was the reply, that's the clairvoyant 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 speculator. She has been at it for months.'

Consolidate the Elections.
Arkansas Democral.

Arkansas Democrat
 The Democrat is pleased to note the stand taken by Gov. Jones relative to consolidated elections. In his message to the legislature he will recommend that our elections be consolidated. The Democrat has advocated such change for years. It has seen the evil effects of too many elections, and has endeavored to impress upon the law makers of the State the importance of protecting the people from the unnec- essary expense of holding two elections in the same year when one would suffice The Democrat has witness ed the grow ing indifference of the masses towards these elections, and, believing that the concentration of all efforts one occa- sion to bring out the full vote could have beneficial results, we have labor ed continuously to convert those who were skeptieal 10 this view of the case. We have gathered strength from time to time, and when the legislature met last year the Hern bill for consolida- ton came very near passing. The old scarecrow of federal interference had it's effect however, and the measure was defeated. It was argued that should Arkansas consolidate her elec- tions the federal congress would imme- diately pass a force bill, and then we should be at the mercy of our enemies It was useless to point out that change in the election laws of the State would scarcely attract the atten- ton of congress, and that a force bill had been impossible even when sec- tional prejudice was much greater than now. Those who opposed consolida- tion had their way, but they were warned that the day was not far off when the people would grasp the true situation. Gov. Jones will present the matter Tn forcible light to the next assembly, and we hardly believe the old gang of alarmists can prevent con- SOlludtlOu. W IIL Ouly OAG 0lGCllOH every two years we will get out the en- tire vote of the State. More interest will be manifested in the various can- didates, and greater desire to have good men elected to office will be man. ifested. More men will pay their poll tax and exercise the right of franchise. It will make them better citizens and more deserving of the rights and priyi- leges guaran teed under the constitu- tion. It will give the Democrats : big majority for congressman as we'll as for State officers. It will put Dem ocrats on their guard and lessen the chances of the opposition.
 If Gov. Jones' recommends tions are acted upon favora bly, the next general assembly will put itself on record as progressive and up-to-date. We sin cerely trust that with 1898 we sh hall only be required to hold one general election every two years.

PEACE TERMS AGREED UPON
OUR CONDITIONS ACCEPTED BY THE
 FRENCH AMBASSADOR
Who is Clothed With Full uthority to Act
 for Spain.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-Events of the most momentous character occur red at the conference at the White House this afternoon between the Pres- ident, Ambassador Cambon of France and Secretary Day, carrying the peace negotiations far beyond the mere snb. missions of terms of peace by the United States and reaching the point of preliminary basis of peace between the government of Spain and the government of the United States, needing only the ratification of the Madrid cabinet in what was done to- day to bring the war to an end.
 This was accomplished on the part of Spain when Ambassador Cambon presented to the President credentials he had received from the Spanish government appointing him envoy ex- traordinary and plenipotentiary with complete instructions as to the manner of acting upon the peace proposition presented, including the disposi ton of Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines, the Ladrones, indemnity, armist ce and all other questions likely to arise in the course of negotiations. With these credentials authorizing him 10 speak as plenipoten tiary for the govern ment of Spain, and with full instruc- tions one. very point at tissue, Ambassa- dor Cambon, in behalf of Spain, not only received the peace condition laid down by the American Cabinet earlier in the day, but those in the final dis cussion with view to reaching final discussion with view to reaching final and complete agreement.
 THE TERMS TO SPAIN.
 l. Cession of Porto Rico to the Unit ed States
 ?. Relinquishment of all sovereign ty ovor Cuba, it's cession to..the United States for it's justification and establish ment of stable government.
 3. Temporary possession of Manila, Manila Bay and Cavite and surround ing territory by the United States; the question of ultimate disposition of the islands to be determined by the regu- larly appointed peace commissioners of the two countries.
 4. Withdrawal of Spain's force from the Western Hemisphere as a guaran- tee of good faith.
