mendation for mercy at the hands OF

degree, and unless new trial Is or
dered, or the governor acts, there will
be a legal execution in Santa Rosa

Jack Cope and Bob Moore were con-
victed on the charge of stealing a
horse and buggy.
The case in which there is the
greatest interest, that of the Pentons
charged with murder, was called late
this afternoon and the task of select
ing a jury commenced. A panel OF
seventy five was exhausted and Judge
Wolfe instructed that another panel OF
seventy-f1 FIVE be drawn from the jury
box and summoned to be In court to-

fine of $25.
