SHORT CUT TO MARRIAGE.

Lovers Meet in Street and Girl’s Suggestion is Quickly Followed. u.Peru, Ind., Jan. 23.—Miss Spata Mary Brower, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Brower, of Gilead, this county, and Floyd Conner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Conner*, of Peru, who were engaged to be married, met in Peru Saturday and Miss Brower banteringly said: “Let’s get maried to-day,” Conner was willing, but when the license was shown to Mrs. Brower she attempted to persuade them to wait a few days. Her efforts proved of no avail, and Conners and his fiancee drove to Mexico, where they were married. They went direct to Conner’s farm home near there. Both are members of wealthy families.
