The CITY registrars of1ice in the old
courthouse is the scene Of one or two
marriages daily. and amusing incidents
frequently occur Perhaps the most pe-
culiar case that has come up recently,
an account Of which was related to a
reporter few days ago. is that Of a
Harvard student who was IN love and
without funds. The love conquered his
pride, and he concluded 20 investigate
the matter with view Of getting mar
ried on trust. He made his appearance
at the desk IN the registrar Office and
inquired il that WAS the place where he
could procure marriage certificate
and also. get married lie was informed
that II was, and a blank application was
handed to him. which be proceeded 10

After this proceeding was gone through

manner, asked the clerk il he could
have few moments private ccnNersa-
ton With him. 3e was taken into the
anteroom. and this is the tale he un-
folded: DE said that he WAS deeply in
love with u young lady. and that she
was also very much IN love with him.
But her parents bad serious objections
TO the match and did all that was in
their power TO break il off. They had
closed their doors On him but. uotwith-
standing this. he succeeded IN arranging
meetings with his heart S choice, and
during one of theS, he proposed mar

They had arranged the details and con
cluded that the only thing 10 be done
was 70 get married in secret and then
separate until he should graduate from
his college. She, Of course, would go
back to her home and live with her
parents as if nothing ont Of the general
run of events had happened.
But the young man, being without
funds, was in a dilemma, and the worst
of il was he could not see his way clear
to procure the necessary amount TO pay
for the certificate and ceremony. His
home was in a western state, and be re-
ceived an allowance from his father only
once in six months. 1t was not due for
nearly two months. He concluded that
his only course was to try the method

kind hearted man, told the youth that
he would perform the ceremony and
trust him for the pay. provided the lady
in question was of age. The next day

LOOK OUT FOR BREAKERS.

The Pops are worried. The Demo
Gratis are worried. The Free Silver
league is worried. There is a great
show of confidence, and no little drum
ming and fiddling all along their lines
of march, but the truth is, it's all make
believe. BrYan'S nomination has not
been accepted by the eastern Demo
Gratis nor has it been Endorsed by the
southern Pops, who have been fighting
the Democrats Of the south. There is
only hope for the Chicago ticket in the
event of complete fusion OF the Popu-
liStic and Democratic forces, north and
south. Bryan suits the Pops of Kan
sas, Nebraska, Colorado and Iowa be
cause the Pops of these states have
been fusing with Bryan's party. But
the Pops of the south have been fuSing
with the Republicans, not with Demo
Gratis, and Bryan will prove 4 bitter
pill. Besides in the Endorsement of
Bryan at ST Louis the Pop party viii
leSe its identity. All its schemes of
fat and OF government ownership must
so by the board for Bryan, northern
Democrat, and silver. These unpleas-
ant reflections will confront the Pop
leaders in theiC convention at ST. Louis,
and there viii be found those who viii
oppose any such fusion and any such
Endorsement, and the result will be a
great big row. Anna Digs has al
ready declared for middle OF the road
and an independent national Pop ticket
If the Pops now go back on Bryan the
Democrats OF the western states Will
never forgive them or fuse with them
again. So its not all plain sailing.
In the meantime the single standard
Democrats are threatening dire and
calamiUOus measures. including a sec

DEMOCRATIC DEGENERACY.

Tie dispatches referring to the age
of Bryan, said that he was the youngest
man by ten years Of any man ever
nominated for the presidency. This
is an error. George B. Mcclellan was
named by the Democratic convention
in 1864 at the age of 81. His son Geo.
B. Mcclellan, at the age Of SO, now
represents a New York City district in
congress, and was a delegate TO the
Chicago convention and is red hot for a
bolt from the Chicago nomination
The ages of Mcclellan and Bryan at
the time of their nomination may serve
30 recall the convention of 1864. Nc
Ciellan had been In command Of the
armies OF the United States He had
not crushed the rebellion SO soon as
the radical Republicans had hoped. In
fact he was charged with indecision
and dangerous inaction He was re-
lieved of the command. Military
critics have disputed his merit as
man suitable 10 command a large army.
Whether his treatment by the Lincoln
administration was as just 10 him as
it should have been has long since
ceased to be a question for serious dis
cuSsion The fame of Lincoln has 50
possessed the American people that
they would not be very patient with
any wrongs Of his administration to
ward General Mcclellan. The public
mind believes Mcclellan TO have been
no great military chieftain, there let
his reputation rest
But the question OF McClellan'S re-
moval became party issue. The Dem
ocratS were defeated in 1850 by divi-
SION The Republican party came into
power, and the war followed For the
time all other questions were subOrdi-
mated TO that OF conducting the war
to a successful Issue. The Democracy
was left with no issue except 10 crit
CHE the Republican war measures.
The bitterness with which they aSsail-
ed the Republican war measures need
only be recalled 10 understand the IS
sue of 1864. OF course every copper
head, every southern sympathizer 81
the north, and every believer in slavery
naturally found his place in the Demo
cratic party as a criuc-eEen defamers
of IIncoln's administration. The Ne
moval OF Mcclellan was s. political
move. II was Do prevent any Demo
cratic general from getting the credit
Of SURPRISING the rebellion. and
further IL was 10 continue the war IN
til southern slavery had been abolished
This WAS the Democratic contention,
and thus in 1864 they net in conven-
ton. General MoCleliaR represented

IN CASE OF NO ELECTION.

There is talk of a third ticket, a ticket
to be put into the field by the goldbug
Democrats for the aYowed purpose of
preserving the old organization Such
a third ticket would help the Demo
Pop national ticket in that it would
carry away an element which will
either vote for Mckinley or stay at
home. Ordinarily third ticket would
by dividing the opposition, help the Re
publican ticket. But not so in this
case. However, If there should be
three tickets in the field this year and
none of them should elect a majority
of the electoral college, the election
would be thrown into the present house
of representative Each state would
be entitled to one vote. and the candi-
date receiving the votes Of majority
of the states would be declared elected.
