BERKELEY.

But one case of typhoid or malarial fever
has been reported to the Health Officer so
| far, and that in house on Dana street,
| for years used as large boarding school
for boys. The Sewage during all this time,
| disposed OF in sspools, has impregnated
| the earth, and from this the Que case is
| thought to come. One cause for Berke-
! ley's freedom from epidemics is its perfect
sewage system. 1t is of small pipes in
stead Of large brick cunduits which cannot
| be flushed so as to be completely cleaned
The slope from East Berkeley to the bay
is so uniform and the fall fully sufficient
10 keep all the pipes of the main lines
clean without any flushing whatever. and
only once Or twice year is there need to
flush the lateral sewers. These and other
natural advantages are the determining
considerations i'll leading constant stream
of new residents to Berkeley.
Beer Not Prohibited.
In the case against Henry Braun,
charged with misdemeanOr for having
beer delivered at the Ackeson Hotel, two
| blocks from the university grounds, the
jury, after being out half the afternoon
yesterday. were unable to agree and were
discharged. They stood seven for convic-
ton and five Tor acQuittal. Attorney
Chapman, for the defense, sprung mine.
He found that the did pr0hibitoIy statute
enumerated alcoholic, yinOus and malt
liquors, the sale of which was interdcted,
but later one only mentioned alcoholic
liquors. He argued, therefore, that vinous
and malt Gncludng beer) liquors were not
Included. The deputy District Attorney
argued they were. since they contained
alcohol, and the jury could not decide. Ii
Chapman is right. beer and wine rooms
galore will doubtless be esta blished all
around the university grounds.
