April 3 he went into the jewelry store of W. S. Tabor, 910 Market street, and asked to examine some diamond rings, as he had just arrived in the city and was going to “blow himself in.” He was shown a trayful, but as none of the rings suited him Tabor turned his back on him for a moment while he got an- other trayful. After carefully examin- ing the rings Epperson said he was not AGREIT 3t 3r s R R AR AR S S Seetietie R ¢ ReRIReRNN . ] S \T\\\ N \wC Ec;pc_esofl satisfied with them, but might call again. After he had left it was dis- covered that a ring valued ‘at $165 was missing. Wednesday last Epperson called at the jewelry store of 8. Schwartz, 502 Battery street, and went through the same per- formance, a valuable diamond ring be- ing discovered missing after he had left. The police were notified and jewelers were instructed by the police to be on the lookout for the thief. Friday night he went into the jewelry store of Max Shirpser, 736 Market street, and tried to work Shirpser, but the jeweler was on his guard and declined to show him any rings. He left the store and Shirpser followed him outside to see if an officer was in sight. Detectives Ed Gibson and* Wren happened to be in the neighborhood of the store and Shirp- ser notified them. BEpperson had walked as far as Grant avenue when the de- tectives overtook him and placed him under arrest. He appeared to be very indignant at being arrested and declared that he was a wealthy merchant from Spokane, but the detectives were not to be bluffed and he was locked up in “the tanks” in the City Prison, Yesterday morning Schwartz called at the prison and positively identified Epperson as the man who stole the diamond ring from him, and was even more positive from a peculiar pin that he wcre in his tie. Epperson was booked on a charge of grand larceny, and other charges will be recorded against him. The police say he is about the slickest customer that has come under their notlce for some time, and they are satisfed that he has swindled a large num- ber of jewelers and others. Epperson gave his occupation as a barber, but it 1s believed that he is a professional crook. 7 ] + 2 “ = 2 g g * b 3 ' £d @ & + 54 + 54 + 4 * 54 2R I5d 8 + 54 + ; b 2 L S L) % | | | - g D | RELEASED FROM PRISON. | Manuel Rivas and His Girl-Wife Al- ‘! | lowed to Enjoy Their Honey- &| moon. | ¢ | Manuel Rivas and his girl wife, Tnacta, B appeared before Judge Mogan yesterday, % [ the husband to answer a charge of per- jury and the wife as a witness.
