LINCOUN, FtU 8.-(Bpeclat The threat
the Parker democrats made to the populists
yesterday that they would not support
Berne for' governor unless the populists
stopped their warfare on Parker ,has
created more amusement than alarm In the
populist camp. The few democrats there
are In the Mate are too near the ragged
edge of extinction to cause a stampede
among the victorious pops, known of all
men as the boss of the two parties. In
fact, the democratic state organisation is
absolutely in the hands of the pops or
under the control of the pops, and the
chairman and the .officers of the committee
may as well be so many clerks so far as
heading off anything the pop committee
may want to do. The democratic commit
tee wants 10 iitnu cijriu in .m3 .cine .
ths pops are entirely Indifferent about the
matter, so any belligerent talk Indulged Jn
by the democrats will have little weight
with the pops. The democratic state ma
chinery can do nothing. It is absolutely
poatrlese. Mr. Brynn runs It and Mr
Brynn cannot hope to break Into the senate
or have ar.y of his friends break Into the
senate unless the pops are willing.
A number of pops were asked about the
democratic, threat this morning and most of
them prefaced their reme'rks with a lock of
pity for their misguided allies of the past.
"Cut Pcrge. will they?1' said one. "Well,
we expected them to do that anyhow. The
people who aro holding these Indignation
meetings ere those democrats who wouldn't
vote for a populist under any consideration
and If they think we Intend to let up on
our flpht on Fnrker they are foolish. They
will vote the republican state ticket or stay
at home anyhow, so It Is mlghtly little
comfort they will get out, of making such
threits to us. We are getting thoroughly
organized In every state In the union and
we know 'we will have to get our votes
fr.im the' democrats who were for Bryan
, during the lastlwo campaigns. That Is
why we are fighting Parker, and you bet
we. win continue to tight him until the polls
to closed. The democrats who are kicking
up the' fuss about It can scratch Berge all
they please, , We can't help thit. They
woultf do It anyway Just for revenge, so
we won't try to argue It with them. We
expect to elect Berge, too."
Reqnlsltlon for Kid.
A requisition was Issued this morning for

Chancellor Andrews has published in the
local papers a notice to the affect that he
will no longer be responsible for the debts
contracted by his son, Guy A. Andrews.
For some months the younger Andrews
has been -addicted to the liquor habit to
the extent that at times he has been wholly
irresponsible for his acts. tn several oc
casions he has forged the name of bis
father to checks and these have been faith
fully paid, but so far has this gone that
ths chancellor has had to take heroic meas
ures to prevent bis own financial ruin. The
young man Is a graduate 'of the law oe
partment of the State tlniversity and of
Brown college. The disease ef drink has
secured such a hold on him, howevir, that
last summer he was sent to the asylum,
but later released, and it was thought he
was permanently cured. He has practiced
law in Lincoln and until recently was poe
sesscd of a brilliant mind.
priasra Surprise en Tape.
Mr. and Mrs. Shafe Kautsman of 1821 O
street had planned on having a wedding at
their, home last Tuesday, but it didn't come
off. - They,, had expected and planned to.
celebrate the marriage of their daughter,
Miss Eudora L Kautsman. and Mr,
Fred J. Winter, a young merchant ' of
Tutan, Neb. The groom-expectant, as they
deemed him, had come to Lincoln Friday,
evening, and there was much domestic dis
cussion of the felicitous event which It
was thcught by the parents to be approach
lng. '
It was not until Moiiday evening that the
event was declared off. It was so declared
because it developed that It was unneces
sary and wholly superfluous. Late Monday
evening Mr. Kautsman was sitting at the
foot of the stairs at his home thinking of
the suspected developments of the morrow
when he was approached by Mr. Winter.
With some embarrassment that young man
explained to him that it would belmpos
slble to become his son-in-law next day
because he already stood in that position
Explanations brought out the fact that
Miss Kautsman was not to be married
next day, simply because there Was no
such person as Miss Eudora L. Kautsman,
she having, as long ago as June 22 last.
already become Mrs. Fred J. Winter of
Tutan. Mr. Kautsman 'was astonished to
learn that on the date named his daughter
and Mr. Winter were married at Grace
Methodist Episcopal parsonage In this city
and had carefully and successfully guarded
the secret ever since.
