\ FORTUNE AWAITS HIM
Detectives Searching for Clues tt
Ansel White
The Missing Man Dropped Out Of Sight Way
Back in IS6S--Last Heard of
Him In the North

SANTA CRUZ, April 26. Detectives
are still searching for information regard
ing Ansel White. who left here in 1865
and has not been heard of since, and for
whom an estate worth $4,000 900 is wait
ing in New York. Today a man was
found who threw more light ON Whites
disappearance than any one has thus far.
S. Washum of FELTON, had an adjoining
farm to White thirty years ago and they
were boon companions. He says that be-
fore VIII lite left here he gave 500 into the
safe keeping of a lady and then went TO
San Francisco, accompanied by young
man named Jordan. VINO left him there
and returned TO Santa Cruz. White said
he was going to Washington, which was
then territory.
A few years afterward Washum went
to Oregon. but did not hear OF White. On
his return to Santa Cruz the lady who was
keeping the money had Washum write to
part,es in the place where White intended
locating in Washington, but the reply was
that White had never reached there.
Washum is satisfied that White is dead
or he would have written to him years

in the center of a large shield filling the
whole window. Reinhaus. Brothers were
the next to exhibit their beautiful decora-
tiOns.
A double front consisting OF four large
plate glass windows was decorated to show
in the center the letters l. 0. 0. F.
one letter in each window composed of
different colored dress goods while the
outside of the front was beautifully
trimmed with the red, white and blue.
Beatty Bros. were profuse in their decora
tions, using number of mblems and
different colored bunting, taking pattern
from La Fiesta decorations in Los An
geles.
The X. P, Masonic and Odd Fellows
halls were beautifully decorated with
bunting and embems of different kinds.
George A. Edgar's store front was artist
ically decorated with coloIed streamers
and the emblem of three links and f. L..
and T. Some used flowers in profusion
in place of bunting. 1t would be,
difficult mater to undertake to de-
scribe all the decorations in the city,
for it was a mass of futtering banners
flags. steamers and bunting. Almost
every house in the business part of the
city was decorated in some way. Many
were both unique and beautiful. French's
opera house was more beautifully decor
ated than ever before and reflects great
credit on the ladies who decorated it.
Their untiring efforts to make a thing OF
beauty cut of a large hall with bare walls
were not in vain.

N THE POLITICAL FIELD
Senator White Mentioned for the
Vice=Presidency
The Senior Senator From California Would
Make Popular Running--0overnor
Budd Is Also Spoken of

WASHINGTON, April 26.--The Even
ing News has column story upon vice
presidential possibilities before the next
National Democratic convention. After
referring to several possibilities, it said:
A man who is looked upon as head and
shoulders above all other Democratic
vice presidential possibilities. if selected
because of his extreme location and ad
herence to the doctrine of free silver is
Stephen Nj. White. the senior senator
from California. He has been prominent
in coast and national politics for years,
and is said to be a conservative and con-
scientious man of great ability, and
earnestly believes in opening the minis of
the United States to the unlimited coin
age of the worlds silver product, regard
less of an existing or prospective inter-
national agreement. Senator White be-
came national figure in the Dem ocrati c
patry seven years ago when he was
temporary chairman Of the national con-
vention of his party in st. Louis which
nominated Cleveland and Thurman.
He is comparatively u young man, being
AZ years of age, and is a native of San
Francisco. ]afl
Governor Budd of the same state. is
also being canvassed, but it is argued
that his prominence and qualifications
do not approximate those of Senator
White. u.,- ..t
Representative Geary was suggested
as a possibility in 1892. but since that
time his connection with the American
Protective association has removed him
from the list of eligibles. Of these none
appear to possess the requisite elements
of strength except Senator White. Should
a Pacific coast man be named as a conces-
sion to the pronounced and aggressive BIZ
metallist element, he will receive the
nomination. y.
