she was giving cool $4,000 to some

The crowd did, however, and as the

throng. Then, as Judge Witten, gov
eminent man in charge Of the lottery,
read out the name of the first winner
remarkable transformation took
place. Pandemonium reigned for a

to the breaking point, gave way, and

WASHINGTON.

The announcement of the death of
Justice Peckham, while expected,
came as a shock to his associates on
the bench and in official circles, and
everywhere expressions of regret
were heard. Justice Peckham was a
democrat and before taking seat on
the bench gave considerable atten-
ton to politics in New York. He was
born in Albany, N. Y, November s,
1888, and had been on the bench,
state and federal, for twenty-six
years. He was appointed to the SUI
preme bench by President Cleveland.

causes was 51,5S1.
Despite rumors, no one has yet been
selected for the post of minister to
China to succeed Charles r. Crane,
whose resignation was recently ac-
copied by the president. Among the
many names that have been men

of Judge Thomas Burke of Seattle,
