The Maine Statesman's Enthusiastic
Reception In Congress.
BIENNIAL DRAWING FOR SEATS I
Some of the Most Prominent Memhors on
Both Sides Were Very Unlucky In the
Lottery Mr. Payne, of New York,
Among the Last Called.
"WASHINGTON, Deo. 8. There vns a scono
of wildest enthusiasm In tho houso of
representatives yostordny whim Thomas
llruokott Upeil yus declared elected speaker
byu vote-of 2:)1, against 115. for Charles F.
Crisp, 0 tor John C. Boll, Populist, anil 1
for David H. Culbernon, Democrat. The
enthusiasm was Intensified whim Mr.
Heud was conducted to tho chair by Messrs.
Crisp, Grosvenor and Hell.
As thoy moved down tho center alslo tho
houso roo on musso, A roar of applause
followed, the Rullories joining with great
enthusiasm In tho demonstration. As Mr.
Heed ascended tho rostrum tho roar swelled
until It was deafening. Amoug this vol
ume; of sound came like pistol shots cries
of "Heed! Heetl! Hood!" Tho Hepubll
cans cheered, many of them wildly. For
over a mlnuta tho demonstration contin
ued. Mr. Heed stood calmly and serenely, with
his hands clasped in characteristic fashion
behind his back, until tho houso was
quiet. Mr. Hurmcr, tho oldest member In
continuous scrvlco prosont, then came for
ward and administered tho oath of olllco
to tho speaker. Tho latter then delivered
his .inaugural uddross, In tho courso of
which ho said:
"It will not be unbecoming in mo, 1
hope, If I acknowledge to this assembly
that It U vory ugrooablo to mo to stand
onco lnoro in tho place which I loft four
years oga Of tho past, howovor, 1 shall
not speak, for tho past speaks for itself in
terms more fitting uud appropriate than
any words which could Como from my
lips. Nor shall I speak of tho future, for
wo uro not putting off tho harness, but
putting It ou. .Yet, I think I may venture
to say of tho futuro, in tho light of tho
past, that If wo do some things which for
tho moment seem inadequate, It may bo
that time, which has justified Itself for us
on mauy occasions, nlay do so again.
Those who havo acted with wisdom here
tofore may be fairly expected to uct with
wisdom hereafter.
"I am sorry to say that tho pleasure as
sociated with tto honoryou havo bestowed
upon nip, an honor which no American
citizen can fall to appreciate and for which
I give thuuks, is but for the moment;
whllo tho cares uud responsibilities extend
over many days."
, At tho conclusion of Mr. Heed's speech
tho luoihbors came forward in squads as
their natnos wore called, and' with uplifted
arms swore to support und defend tho con
stitution. This proceeding, occupied over
half an hour, and thon Messrs. Nawlauds
of Nevada and Cummings of New York,
newly elected members, were sworn In.
Then followed tho swearing in of tho sub
ordinate houso officials.
,'Elv) biennial lottery, or, soat drawing,
was then begun. On account of the over
whelming Republican majority In tho
present house, constituting 211 out of 3j(i
members, an arraugcnieno was entered
into by which tho Republicans should havo
'tho first tier of seats ou tho Democratic
side, and also tho two last tiers, just as in
tho last congress tho Democrats had two
of tho tiers which ordinarily belonged to
tho Republicans.
Three hundred and flfty-slx small halls
wore placed in a box and shaken' up. A
number on each ball corresponded' to a
uamo ou tho roll call. A blindfolded page
drew out tho bulls and tho members se
lected their scats us their amines were
drawn. According to tho usual custom
tho houso grauted tho ox-spoakers, Mr.
Crisp of Georgia and Mr. Grow of Penn
sylvania, tho privilege of "selecting their
seats without drawing.
Mr." Crisp selected u soat in tho heart of
tho Democratic minority, and Mr. Grow
took a seat near tho center of tho Hepuu
llcan side. Popular members were up
plauded as they came forward and se
lected -their placos, and tho pago boys
scooted from desk to desk colivoyiug lloral
pieces bent by admiring friends. Before
tho drawing was half completed tho army
of desks was transformed Into a bower of
roses.
Koine of the oldest and most prominent
members on both sides were vory unlucky
to thp lottery. Mr. Illtt of Illinois, who
will bo chairman of foreign affairs, Mr.
Henderson of Iowa,(wlio will prpbably bo
chairman of appropriations, and ' Sir.
'"Walker of Massachusetts, who will hoad
the banking and currency committee,
wore obliged to content themselves with
6eats in the last tier on tho Democratic
6ldo, known us tho "Cherokeo strip,"
Among tho last names called was thut of
Mr. Puyuo, of New, York, who is much
talked of for the chairmanship of ways
and means. He found a vaunnt chair on
the romoto loft, Mr. Hartlottj (Doiu., N.
"Y.jdrow tho "booby" prize Ills wus tho
last nump called.
JBx-Spoaker Crisp assumed tho leader
ship of the, minority, and it was signifi
cant that Mr. Payne, of Now York, made
tho adjournment motion, which usually
devolves upon the leader of tho majority.

LITTLE BOYS HELD FOR TRIAL.
They Make the Life of Petr Jones Very
Distressing and Wind up by Storm
ing Him With Stones and Smash
ing His Windows With Stones.
The court room of Justice Ulcrstebi was
filled last evening by it large delegation of
men and boys from tho First ward who were
attracted by tho arraignment of three little
boys ranging from 11 to 15 years of age, ,wlio
were charged with besieging the house of ono
Peter Jones. The lioys were William Dowers,
Conny Knterllue and Thomas ltashport.
They were innocent looking and a disinter
ested spectator would be tempted to discharge
the m without a hearing, hut the prosecutor
told a story that revealed a different charac
ter behind the frank, open countenance.
Jones told his slory in a pitiful manner.
He said he would not have taken the trouble
of bringing a law suit If he Only had a
chalice to lay hands on the urchins, but thoy
are like flees in a dark room and it was as
easy for him to catch his tormentor as it
would he for him to move a mountain. Ho
told of how tho hoys persistently tormented
his family and last night they stoned ids
house until hardly a whole j.ano of glass was
loft.
Justice lliorsteiu tried to bridge over the
trouble by a lesson in morals, but hopelessly
gave up tho task when ono of the urchins
followed up a recital by the Justice of the
dreadful doom of the bad hoy with tlie re
mark, "Cheese it, 'Squire, (liftman Jones isoff
his base." This did not servo to allay Jones'
temperineut and as jho was more than ever
determined to privs the suit each of the boys
were put undor $200 hail for trial at court.
