TO TRY M'NAMARA

LOS ANGELES. CAL, oct. 49,
District Attorney John y. Fredericks
will ask Judge Bordwell to impanel
two alternate jurors in the trial OF
James II. Mcnamara. The appeal
will be based on section 1889 of the
California Penal Code, which gives
the presiding judge authority to Sc
lect one or two alternate Jurors when,
In his discretion, a case will be of
such long duration that there is dan
ger OF illness or death in the ranks
Of the twelve men selected to try the
case.
The alternstes will be selected after
the regular jury is chosen. Their
selection will he by the same method
az that employed in securing the first
twelve men. The defense will have
two peremptory challenges and the
prosecution one. The alternates win
occupy seats near the jury box dur
ing the trial and perform the same
duties as the regular jurors.
In case a member Of the jury Is
incapa citated one of the alternates
will take his place and the trial go
on without delay. If their services are
discharged when the case Is placed
In the hands of the jury for a ver-
dict.
This will be the first time a jury
of fourteen men has ever sat In tudg-
ment on criminal case in Califor-
mia and the second time that section
1889. placed ON the statute books in
1926, has been taken advantage Of.
During the second Reuf trial In San

ed making thirteen men on the Jury.

Mr.. BLAKE MAKES
HAPPY SUGGESTION
HIS JET FLOWING DRINKING
FOUNTAIN MAY DANISH
MICROBES.

A jet flowing drinking fountain is
to be Installed In Gamble Hill Park
in place OF the alleged microbe breed
ing cup affair.
This was decided last night at a
meeting OF the Council Committee on
Blake offered the suggestion.
1t SO happens that MIR. Blake. who
is one of a committee that looks af-
to Gamble Hill. was looking over
matters there several days ago. when
the parkkeeper caSed his attention
10 the fact that the fountain spigot
had busted"
Then a happy Idea struck Mr.,
Blake. He would bring the matter
up at the very next meeting of the
Grounds and Buildings Committee. He
would give the jet flowing spigot "A
triaI--a kind of spigot from which
one can drink without the aid OF n
cup er anything else liza BILE TO trans
NIT germs.
Mr.. Blake brought the matter up
last night. and 1t was adopted. Mean
while letter from Or. Levy. chief
health officer. who Is a declared foe
Of the drinking cup. was tabled on
motion of Mr.. Seiph.\
The committee had Asked Or. Levy
To be present and to offer some prac-
teal suggestions as To substitutes for
drinking cups in public places But
il appears that the doctor was not
so explicit as the committee would
have preferred. And so 1t was deem
ed best to lay the letter aside for a
while Incidentally, the doctor ex-
planned that illness prevented him
from attending the committee meet
ing.
The committee recommended that
a regular man be employed on the
Monument avenue plots and also di-
rected the City Attorney TO buy a
lot on which TO erect house for the
keeper of the plots.
