was some scattered commission house

but trade was light. and prices soon
became steady. Opening prices. which
ranged from unchanged figures to "a

The call of the beaches has ever
been The lure of inland people in

this. is the call of the mountains,

becomes very near irresistible.
san Diego is making every effort
to make things attractive for the
visitor on his or her vacation. The
exposition buildings in Balboa Park
are being permanently kept up and
presents perhaps the finest civic
center that is to be found in Amer
lea today.
Close to hand is the stadium, a
wonderful structure where from
time to time athletic contests and
ether sport events of note are held.
Then there is the famous Spreckels
out door organ the like of which is
not to be found anywhere. Every
afternoon a wonderful concert may
be heard by a world renowned or
ganist. This alone makes a trip to
San Diego worth while.
Adjacent to San Diego is the town
of La Jolla pronounced by everyone
to be the most beautifully planned
city in America Here are wont to
gather notables in the realm of art
and music such as will be found in
the different capitals of Europe.
Wide Diversity
Every form of recreation can be
found that the heart may desire.
The student can wander about places
of national interest, such as Ra-
mona $ Marriage place, the old
town, Fort Rosecrans and the ZOO,
which ranks now as fourth in the
world Then there is the fleet that
is a constant source of interest to
all true Americans. You may take
a trip on fast little boats around
San Diego Bay, the most perfectly
land locked harbor in the western
hemisphere.
At every hand are delightful
/ beaches where YOU can "laZv in The
/ sun while the children frolic in the
/ sand or take a plunge in the invig-
/ Grating waters of the surf. For the
more daring there is the sport or
surf boarding, where you are hurt

board behind speedy motor boat.
No beach would be complete with.
ont its concession such as the roller
coaster, the magic house, and similar
amuscments the beaches surrounding
San Diego are particularly fortun-
ate, for there is nothing bizarre OF
low class. Everything is clean cut
and for wholesome amusement.
All the above, and a whole lot
more, will be found at San Diego

Chicago, nl.=The Rev. Basil Seth

and killed by Mrs. Emily Strutynsky,
Of Ramey. Pa, as she knelt before
him, ~ostensibly TO make a confession
at the o o'clock mass at the st.
Michaels Greek Catholic church here.
Mrs. Strutynsky declared to the
police that Father Stethuk had ac-
cused her husband, himself a Greek
Catholic priest Mt Ramey, of appro-
priatlng church funds while he was
minister TO a Chicago congregation.
About 300 w%orshIpers sat In the
3ews OF the church as Mrs. St%rutynsky,
heavily yelled, walked down the mid
die aisle, before the 8 O'Clock mass, TO
the altar. She walked to the confes-
sional box at the right Of the altar.
There out of sight OF the congrega-
ton, she knelt as though to offer con-
f~ession. but instead drew a pistol from
the folds of her dress and fired five
shots at the priest, standing before
her. Two Of the bullets struck him
and passed through his head.
Enchanting, "Oh God help me !" the
Rev. Mr.. Stethuk staggered to the
main aisle and the steps of the church,
where he collapsed. He died In an
ambulance on the way to the hospital.
The police said they had learned

NEW VOLTAGE IS DISCOVERED
Electrical Wizards In Annual Meeting
Make Startling Disclosures
of Recent Discoveries

Del Monte, Cal.-Startling disclos-
ures of progress In electrical cience
marked the closing session here, of the
Pacific coast convention of the Ameri-
can Institute Of Electrical Engineers,
which has been in progress for the last
week, with leading electrical engineers
and physicists in attendance.
In a technical address, In which he
announced the discovery Of a new law
concerning spark discharge from high
voltage. Prof. Harris j. Ryan, of Stan
ford university, indicated that science
has found a way to produce a voltage
capable Of projecting an annlhiliating
electrical bolt over vast distance.
In a statement commenting upon the
revelations made by Prof. Ryan, Rob
ert Sibley, former vice president of the
Institute declared that the g -4aa
announced may mean that In some
future war our scientists may be able
TO hurl and control a bolt Of lightning
across the western or eastern ocean.
"Dr. Steinmetz already has produced
n million volts In the laboratory" he
continued, anu there II no TedSon ~
doubt that a voltage of three or four
million may soon be produced. The
spark capable of being discharged by
such enormou voltage and It's destruc=
tive power is almost beyond belief"
Professor Ryan revealed for the
first time the results of his researches
relating to his voltage transmission
and declared that It now will be pos
sible to Increase materially the pro-
duction of voltage. ever above the
10000 volts, regarded as the limit Of
power transmission at present. The
new law, evolved through experiments
In controlling leakage from the wire in
transmission, Is based on the ratio OF
distance to which Il spark may be pro-
jected and the voltage.
New discoveries in the field of cleo
trical science also were detailed by
DIR. Charles r. Steinmetz. chief con-
sultlng engineer OF the General Elec-
trio corporation.

Schmetz's wife, one of the survivors,
was rescued by another passenger af-
ter she had been washed from the
chair car by the flood and carried
down stream, clinging TO a piece of
driftwood. Scmetz had left his wife
in the chair car and gone into the
smoker just before the wreck occurred.
Schmetz's body was the fourth re-

smoker were Identified as w. E Him
