A LITTLE ROMANCE.
WHY WALTER IF. PARKER rs non
EY-M0ONING ALL ALONE.
Tho Marriage of welI-Known Young
Business Man of This City while
the Train Waited at San
Bernardino.

Mr.. Walter F. Parker, one of the best
known and most highly respected bus
mess men of the city. has so many
friends all through Southern California
that it would seem impossible for him
to take any very important step with
out its coming to someone's knowledge.
As matter of fact, however, Mr.. Parker
wooed and won most charming young
lady and married her as long ago as May
22dd, yet very few OF his acquaintances
will have known anything about it until
they read this notice of the event.
The affair has some rather unusual
romantic features. Mr.. Parker met his
wife, who was Miss Lottie A. Clarke, at
Santa Ana some three years ago, and
they became engaged. The young lady
returned east to her home at Parishviile,
NY. and owing to various circumstances
beyond the control of either party the
engagement was broken off. But fate is
more powerful than objecting parents.
or intermeddling friends. and ii became
necessary for Miss Clarke to return to
California, and the friendship between
the two was renewed resulting in an
other engagement.
Mr.. Parker is noted for his perspicaci-
ty and proposed plan of action which
would simplify all further opposition to
the union, and the day Mise Clarke
started for her home, she was accom-
panied as far as San Bernardino by Mr..
Parker, when marriage license and
minister were in waiting, two minutes
sufficed to tie the knot, and the young
lady stepped back into the car and re-
sumed her journey with her marriage
certificate in her pocket and the prefix
of Mrs. TO her name.
Mr.. Parker left yesterday to join his
wife, as he 10 tired of honeymooning all
by himself. Both parties are to be con-
graduated. Mr.. Parker is young gem
tleman of high standing. who has met
with a most pleasant business success,
and who is in every way worthy of the
happiness which is his. ag
