For Service Along the
Mexico Coast.

Washington. D. c.. Aug. 5.-The
navy's resources on the Pacific coast
have been drawn upon to such an ex-
tent that should further trouble be
encountered in Nicaragua beyond the
forces now there or en- route TO
cope with. or should some OF the
American lives or interests in other
Central or South American countries
be jeopardiZed, the army will be called
upon to assist the marines
The 10th infantry, now in the canal
zone would be the first called upon
to answer the call. This branch OF
the service is said to be much better
equipped than the marines for landing
parties.
The accident to the Vicksburg at
Magdalena Bay is serious because it

the purpose of establishing a scenic park,

scheme for the past six months, stated
that he would secure options on the
land. and proposals from those persons
who own land over which it proposed to
run the speedway. Tt was stated that
it would be necessary to change the

property the road viii be built.
Until the city council decides TO pur-
chase the land the city engineer will not
make any surveys. The cost of making
the survey IN this instance it was stated
would involve the expenditure of several
thousand dollars.

CHINESE AVIATOR
FALLS To DEATH

San Francisco, Cal, Aug 27-Fung
Rue, said TO have been the pioneer Chi
nese aviator, was killed when his BIZ
plane fell 200 feet while he was giving
an exhibition in his native city, Can
ton. News OF the aviator's death was
received here and Chinatown is griev-

A remarkably clever mechanic. Fung
Rue showed unusual initiative and dar-
ing in aviation. More than five years
ago Flung took up in Europe the study
of aerial navigation and soon became
an expert. He built a biplane that en-
bodied several new principles.
Fung's fame quickly reached China
and the Manchu government engaged
him to teach aviation to army and
navy officers. With the fall OF the
dynasty Fung lost his position. Since
then he had been travelling through
out China giving exhibitions.
