Long and Short Terms.

The United States senate had lottery OF
greater proportions than has ever been wit
messed in that body in the history of the
country. Six senators from three new states
drew for order of admission into the union
and for terms undera complicated resolution
introduced by Senator Hoar, which he said
was In conformity with the resolution of,
May, 1889, and the constitution. Mr.. Gull
lom presented Mr.. Pierce's credentials and
escorted him to Vice President Morton's
desk and Mr.. Washburn did the same
courtesy for Mr.. Casey. 1t took bu. a
minute to repeat the oath and then Mr. Nor
ton turned to one side of his desk and gavea
hand to each of the senator's. Senator Gull
lom presented memorial from North Dako-
ia endorsing Sena tor Pierce for the long term.
Senator Sherman smiled when it was read.
Mr.. Hoar limited that the legislature had
nothing to say about it. Mr.. German agreed
with him and cited similar instance

The matter was settled by action which
Called for the drawing in the old way with
out regard to the North Dakota legislature.
The draw was first for order of precedence
Moody, for the three states, drew slips Of
paper from a ballot box. Allen got No. l..
SO Washington is the thirty-ninth state
Moody got No. 2, giving South Dakota
fortieth place, and Casey's luck gave North
Dakota forty first place. That leaves Mon
tana for baby state. Washington was ac-
cordingly the first to settle on the
length of terms, and there were slips of pa.
per representing a four and two-year term
put in the box. Allen drew first and got
the four-year term, leaving Squire with but
two years to serve his state. South Dakota
came next, with chance at two, four
and six-year term. Pettigrew always had
great luck in the draw. I'LL bet
on him for the six-year term
said a South Dakota man in the gallery
He would have won his bet, for Pettigrew
drew the six-year slip. Judge Moody got
No. 8, and SO has only a two-year term.
North Dakota also had chance in the three
classes, but no six year term was in the box
1 p;ar unemi casey got 1o W term and

year term whenever two senators from that
| state are elected.

JEFF .DA Wis DEAD.
The Great Confederate Chief
tain Passes Away at New
Orleans.
Sketch Of His Life and Some
Striking Incidents in
His Career.

New ORLEANS, sSpecial-At 1915 o'clock
this morning Jefferson Davis, ex-president
of the Confederate States died at the resi-
dence of his lifelong friend, J. q, Payne
From the beginning of his fatal illness Mr..
Davis had. insisted that his case was nearly
or quite hopeless, though the dread
pain or fear of death never appeared
to take the slightest hold upon his spirits
which were brave and even buoyant from
the beginning of his attack In vain did
the doctors strive to impress upon him that
his health was improving. He steadily in
sisted that there was no improvement, but
with Christian resignation he was content
to accept whatever providence had in store
for him. Only once did he waver in his
belief that his case showed no improvement,
and that was at an early hour yesterday
morning, when he playfully remarked to
Mr.. Payne: 81 am afraid that I shall be
compelled to agree with the doctors for
once and admit that am little BETTER"
MISLEADING SYMPTOMS.
All day long the favorable symptoms
continued, and late in the afternoon, as late
as o'clock, Mrs. Davis sent such cheer
ing message to Mrs. Stamps and Mr. and
Mrs. Farrar that they decided for the
first time since Mr.. Davis has been
taken i'll to attend the French opera.
Ate o'clock last evening, without any as
ignable cause, Mr. Davis was seized with a

windows bolted, the area gate imprcg-
