Cupid Loses No Time

Cupid's running the race of his life
just at present. He has just two more
days of June to work in and he tries
to number all he can among his June
captives, for there is the old saying
that other brides can never be quite
as happy as June brides.
Among his numerous matches is
that Of Miss Helen Reynolds. daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Merrick Reynolds of
1923 South Alvarado street and Adolph
Helm, whose nuptials were solemnized
last evening at the brides home, with
Rev. John Monroe officiating. During
the service soft harp music sounded
and canopy of asparagus ferns over
the couple and a background of the
same greenery made fresh setting
for the beautiful dresses.
The bride was attired in white Dres-
den silk and she carried a large bou-
quet of Cecil Bruner roses. Miss
Katharine Widney served as maid of
honor and her gown was of white dot
ted swiss over pink silk. Her bouquet
was of pink carnations. Frances We'll
den and Barbara Taylor, who held the
ribbons leading to the altar, wore
dainty pink and white gowns. Little
Oliver Garfield carried the ring and
Merrick Reynolds, jr., stood with the
bridegroom. Masses of pink hydrangeas
and sweet peas We're effectively ar
ranged through the house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Helm will be at home

Five dollars or five days in Jail is
the price that M. Keiting will have TO
pay for a half dozen fried eggs with
which he appeased his appetite few
nights ago.
Keiting entered the Gem restaurant
at 121 East First street accompanied
by friend. Keting looked longingly
over the bill of fare. When he came
to fried eggs he exclaimed, me

Keiting's friend then perused the
menu card, meanwhile smacking his
lips. When his eyes lighted upon the
words hamburger steak" smile
crept over his face and he said, Bring

either. Bring me some German frys,

The Friday Morning club will hold

DOLLAR AN EGG is WHAT HE
MUST PAY FOR HIS HEN FRUIT

they were not done enough to suit the
taste of Keiting. Twice he sent them
back to the kitchen for another fry
ing. Finally they reached a point of
hardness to suit him and he devoured
them.
The hamburger was not done to the
right turn and it had to be returned to
the fire. For almost an hour the two sat
and ate. When they had finished their
meal, Keiting insisted they should
have a couple of "tu-fer-a-quarter Se-
gars." The restaurant does not keep
fragrant Havanas in stock and the
proprietor was compelled to send to
a nearby cigar stand to get them.
Finally the two decided 1t was time
for them to go. Hastily they made
an exit through the front door, as
though they had immediate business
elsewhere.
Officer Gets Busy
Patrolman Pautz was heard slowly
walking by the place. The proprietor
called the officer and told his troubles.
Pautz's eye glistened as he started to
do a little detective work en- his own
hook.
The officer finally succeeded in ar
resting Keiting, but the friend was
nowhere to be found and Keiting re-
fused fatty to tell his whereabouts.
Keiting was brought up before Po-
lice Judge Chambers yesterday and
tried under section 537 of the penal
code of the state of California which
deals with defrauding restaurant keep
ers of money or of securing food un-
der false pretenses. Keiting's excuse
for not paying for the meal was that
he was pennilesS.
Judge Chambers fined the man So.
or almost dollar for each egg he ate.
Now Keiting will live five long days
on beans and hardtack with only the
memory of those delicious "aigs" to
console him.
