This estimate is based on the
idea that the Republicans will re
tain the seats they now have 1871
and that they will get Is out of
the 80 additional members under
the new apportionment. They
give the Democrats their present
representation-151--and the s
seats occupied by Populsts, one
vacancy, and 16 of the new seats,
making 176 in all. 1t does not
seem to us that there is any merit
in such an estimate, for the com
ing election is hardly apt to dupli-
the election of two years ago.
The Democratic estimate is almost
exactly the reverse of the Repub-
lican, as the following will show:

They bi- eyeled until they acquired the bicycle face and other deformities. And now we are told that the ping pong wrist is making itself painfully prominent. Many women who have followed the game too strenuousy have been laid up with the ping pong wrist Upon consulting physicians they have been directed to bandage the injured mem Der and to keep the bandages wet with arnica; and in no case may they go near the game for week
 The next thing in this line will be something else. Play ping pong while you may, and be ready for its successor. Acquire the ping pong wrist It is a sign that you are up to date and that you appreciate your advantages. Some old fogies will think that the game isn't worth the candle, or the wrist, but that doesn't matter.
