Mexico, in spite of its internal trou-
bles and two previous failures, is

for its participation in the Mexican
centennial in 1910 Incidentally.
there is room for the belief that the
southern republic is making one more
attempt to convert the understanding
between Nippon and Mexico into an
alliance that will strengthen the hand
of the trouble torn republic.
Four members of special embassy
from Mexico City arrived today on the
liner Peru and will leave for Japan

Want This Railroad?
1t Is Guaranteed to
Lose Money Every Day

Here is chance for some enter
prising person to acquire a perfectly
good railroad, guaranteed to lose
money consistently and in huge sums.
Oficials of the Klamath Lake Rail-
road company appeared befor ethe
railroad commissioners this morning
and gave many good reasons why the
commission should allow them to
abandon the line. They said that 1t
had been built for special purpose,
namely to haul lumber to a sawmill
that had been burned. Now that the
sawmill is nil the railroad has been
losing many thousands dollars a year.
As the promoters are the only ones
to lose, 1t is probable that the COM
mission will grant the company per-
mission to abandon the line to weeds
and wild animals.

Drop of 80 Feet Ends Lives of
LieutenantS Kelly and
Ellington Near San
Diego

SAN DIEGO, Nov 24.-Two young
United States army officers were
dashed to death here this morning
when the aeroplane in which
they were riding crashed to the
earth from height of so feet. They
were Second Lieutenant Eric L. ELL
ington, "a years old, and First Lieu
tenant U. NJ. Kelly, 80 years old. Both
were exceptional officers in the mill
tary service, and their records for
daring have been of high character.
The accident occurred at the army
aviation camp near Point Iona The
|sgfscers were dying in the same ma
'ehine, Ellington driving and Kelly
acting as passenger. They left tShe
camp at 7:30 o'clock for test figkw
over Long island and intendetK4fsail
through the clear morning sky for a
half hour before breakfast.
THE AEROPLANE CRUMBLES
The machine glided with perfect
ease over the still waters of the bay
and the officers made several circles
over the fortifications of Fort Rose
Grams before starting south over the
Sandy beach. Then suddenly as they
rose to fly higher over the land the
aeroplane was seen to crumble and
fall
They were then so feet from the
earth. The machine shot like rock
earthward. burying the two young
officers under the heavy engine. 1t is
believed they met instant dead. Om-
GERS from the aviation camp immedi-
ately rushed to the scene across the
strait in motor boats. but the young
men had breathed their last before
they were taken from the wreck.
An examination of the wreck
leads the army officers to believe
that loss of control is the cause for
the disaster.
Both Kelly and Ellington were in
the best of spirits before starting
on their flight. They were proud of
their brilliant records of the past
few days and expressed confidence
that they would be ordered to the
Mexican border If Uncle Sam In
tended to intervene.
