A Noble Record .

The Republican party has every
reason to be proud Of the record
which has been made by the Repub
lican Congress that ended its first
session Monday. 1t has been a
fruitful and eventful session, and
the record of work perform ID or well
advanced, is proof Of the fact that the
long session has been well employed,
in spite of the prodgious waste of
time caused by fiibusterers in the
House and interminable takers in
the Senate.
The most important achievement
OF the session is unquestionably the
preliminary work performed i'll the
House, giving to the majority of
that body the control of its business.
The struggle over this issue ex-
tended into the middle of February.
and was continued in various forms
all through the sessions whenever
the minority saw its opportunity
but it is worth all the time and
trouble it cost, and even the bad
blood and outrageous abuse of
which it was the occasion. With
out that initial triumph the session
must have been a comparative fail
ure, being limited to such Legislative
measures as could pass by unanimous
consent or by the grace of the Demo
cratic minority.
The victory secured by the Re
publicans under the inspiration and
leadership of Speaker Reed, and
followed up SO Vigorously and sue
cessfully in its administration, is q
victory for all time, and makes the
House of Representatives once more
business body with power united
TO responsibility. Had the example
of the House been followed by the
Senate and check allowed for the
now unlimited debate i'll that body,
the record of work accomplished,
satisfactory as it is, would have been
considerably greater. The lesson
offered by the House has not, how
ever, been wholly lost upon the
Senate. The demand in that body
for something like the previous
question was never so strong as 1t is
now. and would -he-obstructors are
held in some check by the fear that
/ their power to obstruct will be taken
away ii they abuse it too hagrantly.
There is hopeful prospect that in
a comparatively short time the Sen
ate will yield to the force of example
and commit to the majority the con-
troll of its business.
Either the tariff or the silver legis-
lation of the session would have
been sufficient alone to give it
character and importance. Never
since the days OF the civil war and
reconstruction has Congress set
about and advanced so far so many
yerv important measures. The OBJ.
structivc rules Of all the later Con-
crosses had caused necessary meas
ures to accumulate, and this Con-
eress applied itself most industrious
" to their disposition. The elec-
tions bill, the shipping bills, SUI
preme Court relief and the bank
ruptev bills are among the very
weighty measures that are SO iarI
matured hat the next session isl
certain to see them become laws.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-A Chronicle
Monterey special says: Yesterday af-
ternoon Captain E. s. Josselyn, an ex-
assemblyman of this county, left Monte
rey, as usual, for his home adjoining the
gardens of Del Monte hotel. AS ne drove
up to the rear of his house, two men
suddenly appeared and ordered him to
halt. Josselyn attempted to jump from
his buggy, but tripped and fell to the
ground, the men firing two shots at him
as he jumped, both missing. Before he
could rise, the men jumped on HIM and
beat him numerically. They then
bound him hand and foot, taking about
$50 from his pocket. They locked him
in a room and:proceeded to ransack the
house. This done, the robbers returned
to him and coolly discussed the question
of numbering him. They finally decided
to spare his life. Leaving him bound
they cooked dinner and invited Josselyn
to join them, but he refused to do so.
After dinner they lay around and en-
joyed themselves until o'clock this
morning, when they went away. About
daybreak Josselyn succeeded in freeing
himself, and gave the alarm. The rob-
bers left here on the morning train for
San Jose, and are being closely pursued.
Should they be captured and brought
back, violence is feared, as the citizens
are much excited by Josselyns bruised
and wounded condition.

STRICKEN DOWN.
JUSTICE MILLER OF THE SUPREME
COURT PARALYZED.
the Court Chamber to His Home in
SWashington-HisC Condition Critical.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-This after
noon Justice Samuel Miller, of the
supreme court of the United States, was
stricken with paralysis, and is now in
serious condition, though he is resting
comfortably and his'mind is clear. He
was returning from the supreme court
room, and when within sight
of his residence, was seen
to stagger and fall His servant,
John Woodford, who saw him, quickly
got him home, and Doctors Cook and
Lincoln were soon in attendance. They
found that the left side OF the justice
was paralyzed, but he was still able to
recognize these about him.
DIR. Lincoln has just left Justice Mil
ler. He says his condition is not nearly
so favorable as it was two hours ago, and
his case is now very serious.
Judge Miller had been suffering near
ly all summer from an attack of dysen-
terry. but at no time was his illness Sc
we're enough to prevent him from at
tending to his judicial duties while on
his annual court circuit in the west.
He returned to Washington last week,
feeling much better, though somewhat
weak. This morning he was feeling un-
usually good.
The justice, in telling Mrs. Mil
Ter of his fall, said he felt his
knee giving away under him, and his
legs felt so heavy he could hardly lift
them. Thinking it was a sudden return
of rheumatic twinge, which he often
before felt, he made another effort tostep
forward, and as he did so he either
tripped on car track, or slipped, and
fell forward on his left side and arm, at
the same time cutting his forehead
slightly and causing an abrasion
OF the skin on the nose.
John Woodford, the Justices servant,
was standing in the door at the time, and
saw him fall He Immediately ran to
his assistance, and with the help OF a
friend raised the Judge to his feet, and
placing him in cab, conveyed him to
his home. An improvised stretcherwas
brought out, and though the judge pro-
tested against being placed on it, he says
he felt perfectly able with assistance to
walk, he at last consented and was taken
gently to the terrace leading to his
house, and into the office on the first
floor. Meantime Mrs. Miller, who was
out visiting, arrived and find
ing the judge down stairs
Immediately had him removed
his room on the second floor, though the
change was made unwillingly on his
part, as he insisted he was only slightly
weak and would prefer having dinner
down stairs, rather then in his bed
room.
When the Justices bed room was
reached. he remarked: Just place
the stretcher alongside OF the bed,"
much to their surprise. DR.. Cook, who
lives two doors away, was called, and
DR.. Lincoln sent for. They administered
some slight restoratives, and after an
examination, found partial paralysis OF
the left side, from the arm down. The
numbness in the arm has now partially
disappeared.
AT o'clock this Saturday morning,
it was stated that the Justice was rest
ing quietly, and the family thought he
was little better.
