He has been here for the past FIVE
days, frequenter OF the Palace hotel

yet his presence did not become gen

porary abode is a local restaurant. where.
however, he spends very little time, for

determined to wed the actress and that
she Is willing to accept the name and
companionship he offers no one who has
enjoyed the company of the young cou-
pie VIII gainsay. In fact. IL is under
stood. and The Call has ample authority
Tor the assertion, that their betrothal
is certain TO follow the first assurance
that the younger Elkins receives from
his father OF parental condonation for his
matrimonial step However. Stephen r.
Elkins. Jr., Is In San Francisco. and ex-
poets 20 remain here until the actress is
ready 10 return TO the East, which will
not be for several weeks.
TWO years ago, Edna Wallace Hopper
came TO San Francisco. and the fact that
young Elkins followed her here gave rise
to the first stories that a mutual attach
ment originating I'm New York some
months previous existed between them.
Later. IL was reported that Mr. Elklns.
Sr.. had warned his son that marriage
between the latter and the actress. which
was gossiped In the East as a possibility.
would not be condoned Stephen. Jr,
has since tried TO overcome the objec-
tion OF his parent, and in this endeavor
he is said TO have been assisted by Edna
Wallace Hopper, whose consent to a mar
riage Is reported 10 hang conditionally
upon the success OF the plea TO the
father"
