James Robinson, a negro porter,
showed his love for Susie Lewis, ne
gress living at the Canadian hotel, in
what is deemed by the police to be a

whacked his lady love with a broom
handle and when she demonstrated told
her that he was going to make her
love him if he had to kill her.
The Lewis woman did not relish the
prospect OF death for true loves sake

MARRIAGE VOWS
SAID IN AUTO
ROMANTIC WEDDING TAKES
PLACE IN OPEN AIR
Hardy Raneher From Fullerton
Claims as Wife Fair Modesto
Teacher-Justice Too Bash
full to Kiss Bride

The latest thing in romantic mar
riages occurred yesterday morning,
when, in order to conform to all the
customs of the day, William L. Hale,
a handsome, hardy rancher from Full
lerton, and Miss Joan f. Nichols Of
Modesto were married in an automo-
bile on the North Broadway drive of
the court house entrance.
The ceremony was performed by
Justice of the Peace Pierce and fol-
lowing the ceremony the happy couple
whirled away on the honeymoon trip.
The old saying that no man can
have a romance unless it occurs before
he reaches the age of thirty years was
knocked into a cooked hat by Hals
and his pretty sweetheart.
The bride is from Modesto and ad-

years past she has been a school
teacher in Texas and Arizona and

rancher, and despite the fact that Hale

little romance.
Besides hundreds of other modern
improvements at the handsome ranch
house, Hale had an automobile, a great
machine with a steamer whistle and

chug appliances.
Wednesday morning they came to
Los Angeles, accompanied by Con-
stable Charles Ruddick of Fullerton
township and Miss Rebecca Bosche,
Hale acting as chauffeur.
The siXteen-mile drive was soon end
ed. The couple arrived at the court
house at II o'clock and secured their
license to wed.
Justice Pierce was called out and the
machine was driven around to the front
of the court house. The justice en-
tered the front part of the machine
and stood facing the couple, who were
We're no invitations issued, but it didn't
take five minutes for a crowd of about
100 spectators to collect.
The ceremony was quickly performed
and beneath the January skies the
groom slipped the ring on his brides
finger and then kissed her. An invi-
tation to do likewise was extended the
