Mrs. Clara Baldwin Stocker and her diamonds, her maids and her husband arrived this morning in her private car “California” to partake of San Francisco's New Year cheer. In a big touring car the party went to the St. Francis. Meanwhile Stocker wanders about the lobby of the hotel. He never goes far away from the suite on the sev enth floor. Why? Because he is really afraid to. He says so him self. He is fearful lest some bold bandit knocks him down and takes that great sparkling diamond that he wears on his little finger. But Mrs. Stocker says she feels per fectly safe and perfectly comfort able in San Francisco. She says, that Arcadia—that's her home town—is much too primitive and quiet for a New Year celebration.
