YOUNG RUBIDOUX SEEKS BLESSING
DESCENDANT OF NOTED FAMILY FLEES WITH LADY LOVE
Escaping the watchful eyes of the bride's parents, Frank Rubidoux, of Ontario and Carmetti (Carmelita) Noriega of San Dimas, yesterday hied themselves in an automobile to Chino and were hastily married by City Recorder A. O. Dillon.
Rubidoux is 21 years of age and his bride is 19. The parents of the latter had objected to the match, and also suspected that an elopement might occur. For this reason they had kept a sharp watch on the daughter; but love finds ways, and yesterday, through the assistance of two cousins of the girl, she was taken to Pomona, where she met her lover.
Without any undue ceremony the entire party then drove to Chino, where the two were married. Last evening, they were on their way back to San Dimas to ask the forgiveness and the blessing of the old folks, after which they were scheduled to go to Ontario and go through the same performance with the groom's parents, for they were also opposed to the match. As soon as the four parents are placated the young folks will move to the beach, where they will make their home. Rubidoux is a descendant of the old family from which Mount Rubidoux is named.

WEALTHY WOMAN PREFERS JAIL
ELOPEMENT CAUSE OF FAMILY CLASH
For her strenuous objections to her daughter's elopement and marriage, Mrs. Victoria Olivas, wealthy resident of Ontario, today was offered the alternative of paying a fine of $20 or serving 20 days in the county jail.
She chose the jail sentence, but was released after several hours in jail, when her husband, Fred Olivas, paid her fine.
"Please don't take the money," she implored Judge Holbrook of Ontario, when her husband offered the $20. "Let me stay in jail."
Her daughter, Carmelita Noriego (Noriega), married Frank Rubidoux, a member of a wealthy and prominent California family, for which Mount Rubidoux, near Riverside, was named.
Mrs. Olivas was convicted on a charge of disturbing the peace and using indecent language in the presence of women and children.
It is charged she went to the home of her son-in-law's mother, Mrs. C. M. Rubidoux, and created a disturbance, accusing Mrs. Rubidoux of using undue influence to bring about the marriage.
Mrs. Rubidoux says he knew nothing of the marriage until after the ceremony was performed.
Mrs. Olivas also accused her daughter of the theft of two valuable rings, the gift of her dying mother.

ANOTHER SEQUEL IS ADDED TO MARRIAGE TANGLE
Charged with disturbing the peace and using vile and indecent language in the presence of women and children when in line with her expressed intention of recovering a ring, alleged to have been stolen by her daughter, Mrs. Carmelita Rubidoux, she visited the home of the latter's new mother-in-law, Mrs. C. M. Rubidoux, No. 426 East Park street, Ontario, Mrs. Victoria Olivas yesterday drew a sentence of $20 fine or 20 days in the county jail, when found guilty in Judge George R. Holbrook's court in Ontario.
Mrs. Olivas announced in court that she would never pay the fine and that she preferred to go to jail, but was released when her husband, Fred Olivas, produced the cash after she had spent several hours behind the bars at the Ontario city jail. Mrs. Olivas gave her age as 39. Her husband appears to be about 15 years her junior.
Follows Elopement
Mrs. Olivas' daughter, Carmelita Noriega and Frank Rubidoux, member of a prominent Spanish family of Ontario, eloped from the temporary home of the bride in San Dimas a few days ago and thereby called down the wrath of the bride's mother on their heads, apparently.
Among other things, the mother charged that her daughter had stolen two valuable rings from her and presented one to her new mother-in-law. Yesterday when Mrs. Olivas interviewed her daughter, the rings were returned.
Denies Entire Story
Mrs. C. M. Rubidoux today flatly denied allegations of Mrs. Olivas that she had endeavored to keep the woman's rings from her and warmly resented the statement of the bride's mother that her young husband "could not buy her a dollar apron."
Mrs. Rubidoux, Sr., also denied for her daughter-in-law that the girl had led her mother through misrepresentation to buy her $150 worth of new clothes, declaring that the money spent on the girl was part of $400 of her own and which she had earned by working.
"We knew nothing of the marriage until it was all over," said Mrs. Rubidoux Sr., "but when we learned of it, we were glad to welcome in Frank's wife as a daughter. I have known the Rubidoux family for twenty-five years and I have never known one of them to do anything dishonorable."
Wife of Frank Narcisco Rubidoux in the 1920 census.
Frank and Carmelita Rubidoux's children were:
1. Aberdeen "Abby" Louise Rubidoux, b. Jul. 18, 1920 in CA. and d. Jul. 8, 2012 in Camarillo, Ventura County, CA. Aberdeen married Gus Valenzuela.

AUTO ACCIDENT INJURES FIVE
Two women and the three children of one of them were injured last night in a terrific crash of two automobiles at Fourth and H streets, San Bernardino.
The injured are Billie Palmer, 777 Main street, San Bernardino, waitress; Mrs. Carmelita Rubidoux, Bastanchury ranch, Fullerton, and her three children, Averdine, 13; Jack, 11, and Carmelita, 9.
Miss Palmer and Averdine Rubidoux are the most seriously hurt, physicians at Ramona hospital said, although both will recover.
Miss Palmer suffered a slight concussion and a severe scalp wound, while Averdine was also badly cut about the head.
Her mother also suffered head gashes, as well as shoulder and arm injuries. Jack Rubidoux was cut and bruised and Carmelita suffered a few bruises, but was otherwise unhurt.
The Rubidoux and several friends had been visiting in San Bernardino and Colton and started back to Fullerton, with Rubidoux driving one car and Mrs. Rubidoux another. They became separated, and Rubidoux knew nothing of the accident until several hours later.
According to police who investigated the crash, Mrs. Rubidoux's car was apparently being driven south on H street when it collided with one driven by Miss Palmer, headed west on Fourth street. Police called ambulances, who rushed five injured to hospitals. Jack Rubidoux was taken to the county hospital and later to Ramona.
