The next House of Representatives
will without doubt contain a majority in
favor of the free coinage of silver. The
Journal has obtained through its cor
respondents and national committeeman
conservative opinions on the probable re-
suit in every congressional district in the
country. According to these estimates
the representatives in the Fifty-hfth Con-
gress will stand as follows:

Eyervthing else Failed.
Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when a man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness, the mental forebodings
are ten times worse than the most severe
pain. There is no let up to the mental
suffering day or night. Sleep Is almost
impossible and under such strain men
are scarcely responsible for what they do
For years the writer rolled and tossed on
the troubled sea of sexual weakness until
it was question whether he had not bot

his troubles. But proyidential inspiration
came to his aid In the shape of com.
bination Of medicines that not only com
pletely restored the general health, but
enlarged his weak, emaciated parts to
natural size and vigor, and he now declares
that any man who will take the trouble to
send his name and address may have the
method of this wonderful treatment free.

as it progresses. The attorneys make their

The jury retires and are unable to agree
upon verdict; some eleven jurymen
think that the plaintiff should have n YER

she has no case, and thus hangs the jury.
Nine men should be able to render YER

A NEWSPAPERS business is to chronicle
the happenings Of the day, not to spread
wild rumors. The report in the Evening
Journal that another large firm doing
business on Market street was about to
fail was bad Judgment on the part of the
p 'rson who wrote the article and the paper
that printed it. 1t puts every store doing
business on Market street under suspicion;
possibly might have the effect Of causing
some merchant who has been rather slow
in his payments to be pushed, and thus
force him into the hands of the sheriff,
when, if he was given more time, especial
ly as business has been extremely dull, he
would be able to pull through and pay
dollar for dollar of his indebtedness. 1t is
bad policy to circulate wild rumors and
should not be given credeuce by the
public
