The jackpot in the multi-state Mega Millions lottery grew to $50 million Wednesday.

None of the tickets sold for Tuesday's $40 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball.  The next drawing will be Friday.

There were four second-prize winners from Tuesday night's drawing: 1 from Illinois, 1 from Massachusetts, 1 from New Jersey, and 1 from Washington.  Each ticket matched all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number to win $175,000.

Another 35 tickets matched four of the five lotto numbers plus the Mega Ball number to win $5,000 apiece.

The winning numbers from Tuesday's drawing were: 8, 11, 14, 23 and 25.  The Mega Ball number was 21.

The Texas Megaplier was 4.
