SANTA CRUZ EVENING SFNTINEL-THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1900. FLEES FROM HIS HOME WITH THE FAMILY JEWEI.S. Imuran yiwr 25c, 35c and 50c per pound TEA SAN JOSE. With $3,000 worth of family jewels in hi3 pocket, Leslie Briggs of Santa Cruz, an 18 year-old son of a prominent family there, cut a wide swath among the habitues of the tenderloin of this city from Sunday night to Tuesday morning. His pace was fast and furious and he was deemed a "good thing," but the presence of Detective Rawle of the surf city caused the young man to hastily de both the Sheriff and Chief of Police of Santa Cruz, who say they know nothing of any such arrests.

We are sorry that Mr. Valpey lost any money in his enterprise, and we believe that compensation should be made him. But no one is responsible for the amount, except the actual consumers. We further think that Mr. Valpey was wonderfully lacking in business foresight to allow strangers to depart without paying.

A misunderstanding existed, and the Republican party can not be held responsible for this unfortunate occurrence, however much they might regret it. Wiser people than Mr. Valpey collect at the door, for instance managers of circuses, church suppers and miscel WE sell extra choice quality Teas at ths above prices.

Herbert has disappeared completely and the police have no trace of him though they expect to land him in a few days. The above story concerning the amount of jewelry taken is very much exaggerated. Young Briggs, who was for some time employed as a bell boy at the St. George, resided with his parents on Walnut Av. The jewelry he took consisted of one diamond ring valued at $70, one opal ring valued at $25, and one lady's brooch valued at $40.

She carried a bridal bouquet of white carnations and ferns. The groom and the bridesmaid followed. The bridesmaid was becomingly gowned in a tailor suit of blue.
