w. Godfrey Hunter Jr., son Of
United States Minister Hunter in
Guatemala, has shot and killed VIII
liam Fitzgerald of Grand Rapids,
Mich, who was resident Of Guate-
mala City. After the shooting young
Hunter took refuge in the United
States legation and refused to sur.
render to the Guatemala authorities.
These facts have been reported to
the state department by Consul-Ger-
eral McNally at Guatemala, w:o de-
clares that Fitzgerald was shot down
in cold blood. He asserts further
that Secretary Bailey of the American
legation held up Fitzgerald while
Hunter stood behind him and fired
the fatal shot. Both men then ran
from the scene, still holding their
drawn revolvers.
DR.. Hunter, the United States min
lister, fatty denies these assertions
He states that his son, Godfrey, and
Secretary Bailey, while sitting on a
bench in the park in which the trag-
edy occurred were attacked by Fitz-
gerald, who struck young Hunter and
snapped pistol, which failed to ex-
plode. Hunter thereupon shot and
killed him.
The existence Of conspiracy be-
tween members Of the American col
ony, including Consul General Nc
Nally, is charged by Dr.. Hunter. A
bitter personal teud has existed for
several years between DR.. Hunter and
Mr.. McNally.

fact that Fitzgerald was shot from

New Fad In Plaques.

There is a fad now for collecting
Swedish plaques and tankards. The
designs are frequently drinking scenes,
set in a frame of leaves, the ivy or
oak entwined with Swedish inscrip-
tions. A plumed knight sets at table
before a big tankard in one, and q
pretty capped Swedish maid is carry
ing a tray in another. The sepia tints
of the burned wood are handled in
lights and shadows with a delightful
effect. The tankards are of the same
design as those used by the peasants
before the introduction Of porcelain
The inscription on these and the small
wine cups is the one said to be learned
by every foreigner who goes to Swed-
en-: Min skal, din skal, ALA vackra
fiickors skal." The translation of the
toast is: My health, thy health, the
health of all the pretty girls" The
universality Of the proverb is to be
appreciated in looking at many inscrip-
tions translated from Swedish, which
shows the same old sayings familiar in
all tongues and lands.

NOTES ON SCIENCE

With some refreshing exceptions,
popular science continues to be more
popular than scientific For instance,
here is late bit of gossip about dyna-
mo design: ut will be news to many
that dynamos have gone out Of fash
ion. Those who belong to the smart
set of the electrical world talk now Of
generators. Generators-thati is to say,
our old friends the dynamos-have
ceased to be specially interesting be-
cause, like the fiddle, they have reached
perfection. To those who have not
paid attention to the matter this may
sound like an exaggeration, but, as
matter of fact, there is not much room
now for improvement in electrical ma
chinery. Everything is becoming fixed
and standardized-a sure sign of ma
turity. The limitations and conditions
are well understood, and only few
more revolutions are possible, and
none probable"
This Is from handsomely illustra-
ted and printed article in one of the
ten-cent monthlies. One can detett
certain disguised flavor Of truth in this
glib recital. although the statement
that only few more revolutions are
possible, and none probable" is puz-
zling; but. after all, how misleading
the whole is! Generators have hardly
reached perfection, and Standardization
of apparatus does not mean stagnation
by any means.
