OBJECT TO NEBRASKA DIVORCE
English Judge Says Marriage Follow
ing IL Was Clearly of Big
amOus Nature.

LONDON, June 17.-As an outcome Of
the alleged marriage of Reginald Grey
Coke, son Of the Hon. Henry and Lady
Coke and nephew Of the earl of Leicester.
to Gala sister Of Mark Hamburg, the
pianist, in America last January, Mrs.
Reginald Grey Coke today secured de-
cree of divorce on the ground of bigamy
and adultery
The documents produced in evidence
showed that Reginald Coke. obtained a
divorce in Nebraska on the ground of
desertion on the part Of his wife. Sir
John Barnes in granting the decree said
Reginald Coke's marriage to Miss Ham
bourg was clearly bigamous and he sin
cerely wished that something could be
done in America to prevent this sort Of
thing.
Reginald Coke secured his decree of d.
vorce In Omaha last fall in Judge Day $
court on a petition charging desertion.
His only witness besides himself was
Lord Haldon, a member of the English
peerage who came clear from London TO
testify for him. II was understood at
the time among his friends that he in
tended to remarry. Coke is an accom-
plished musician and was we'll known
among the younger musicians OF the city.
He is said to have landed in America
with $4,000 and he spent money freely
while here.
Shortly after the dfSorcs was issued he

Cases Weak, Says Fulton.

After the committee had adjourned
Chairman Fulton and Representative Fas-
sett asserted that the cases of the allies"
we're weak in every particular and could
not have been decided otherwise than as
they were. Both of these gentlemen said
that the charge that the national committee
was prejudiced In favor Of Secretary Taft
had been refuted and the committee fully
Yindicated.
Mr.. Fulton announced that he would not
draw the report OF the committee until
after he had had a few hours sleep. It
was not his intention, he said, to enter
upon any discussion OF the merits Of the

I eacher Played Even.

E. H. Inman, who presides over the destiny of the Parker school had a "bout'' with his pupils on New Years day and he day foll owing that started as a joke and ended as one, but the funny side of it disappeared a time or two and the situation looked "squally.'
 Endeavoring to enforce their demand for a treat from their teacher, several of the large pupils barred the school house door on the teacher New Y ears day and would not permit him to come in the house after the first recess. Finding himself helpless, MT. Inman procs eded to stay out and enjoy the sum- shine. Later the boys rode him a rail and gave him a rather gentle ducking, all of which the good natured teacher "stood for" with becoming patience.
 The next morning Mr. Inman was on hand early and display ed number of heavy switches, and assumed a serious look which put the participants in the events of the day before to guessing hard. Just before the morning recess, the teacher locked the door and asked all who had taken part in the affair to como for. ward and he lined them up after some difficulty, and expressed much sorrow for the painful duty he felt it necessary to preform, administering lecture that was well pointed all around.
 The boys were made to believe that they were up against a thrashing right now. Several of them wear men sizes of clothing and they figured hurriedly on some means of escape, and the fact that whole windows were left in the house is doubtless due to Mr. Inman's explanation that they had their fun and now he had played even, at least he would lot it go at that this time.
 No luther fun at Parker is anticipated.

IT LOOKS HOPELESS.

The nomination of Mr.. Bryan Is a
phenomenon that seems almost be-
yond comment. The east will have
nothing Of him. The practical leaders
of the party did not want him. His
standing as a presidential possibility
has not increased since his last de.
feat. And his third campaign on this
new democratic platform seems to
foreshadow the disintegration of a
once great party. An organization
that continues to draw its political
Inspiration from the old south and its
economics from the eighteenth cen
fury lacks the sanction of essential
facts in dealing with the problems OF
today; and the profession of faith an
nounced in the new platform is the
alteration OF a fallen idol. To demand
tariff reform, with an eventual tariff
for avenue only, is not an alluring
that pays the highest wages in the
world; while the ''anti-injunction"
plank Is only more unctuous, and not
half as sincere or, attainable as that
of the republican platform. However,
the democracy has chosen its -candi-
date and its platform, and If they do
not seem to fit each other very well
the democracy must do the best it can
with them. What the nation will do
with them is another matter.-Denver

1 remember, l remember
The house where l was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping in at morn;
He never came a wink too soon
Nor brought too long a day;
But now, I often wish the night
Had borne my breath away.
l remember, / remember
Where / was used to swing.
And thought the air must rush as
fresh
To swallows on the wing;
My spirit flew in feather then
That is SO heavy now.
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow.
l remember, I remember
The fir trees dark and high;
1 used to think their slender tops
We're close against the sky;
1t was a childish ignorance,
But tbs little joy
To know I'm farther of from heaven
Than when l was boy.
