Heart of an Ancient Empire

To the east tower the White Cordil-
lera, beyond which molder the miasmatic
jungles of the Montana; to the west rise
the snowy attitudes we have just trav-
ersed, writes Ernest Peixotto. in de-
scribing The Land of the Incas," in
Scribner's Magazine. Between these two
ranges lie succession of highland val
leys some 10000 to 1900 feet above the
sea, each separated from the other by
nudos, or knots, of lesser traverse chains
of mountains.
These valleys in our latitudes would be
covered with eternal snow. Here under
the tropics they blossom with all the
products of the temperate zone, enjoying
a cool, invigorating climate and support
ing a large population of Indians.
They constituted the heart of the an
cent empire of the Incas, that amazing
despotism that stunned the Spanish con-
querors with the wisdom of it's institu-
tion. the splendor and the size of its
buildings, the rich produce of it's fields,
and, above all, with the wealth of its
mines of gold and silver and its amassed
riches of centuries. When the Spaniard
came, Huayna Capac had already ex-
tended his dominions as far north as
Quito and as far south as the land of
the Araucanian Indians of Chilli Even
most of the savage tribes of the Mon
tana owed him allegiance and only the
Pacific bounded his territories to the west
ward. The center of his empire lay in
these high plateaus of the Andes-the fair
and fertile valleys of Huaylas and Viii
canota. the bare and bleak plains of
Cerro de Pasco and Titicaca's BASIN
We were now entering the last named,
the most southern of the four. and were
then to turn northward to viist the Inca
capital Cuzco, the navel of the kingdom,
as it's name signifies.

Balk in Policy of Russia

The attitude of Russia towards The
quarreling Balkan states has often been
described of late, but usually erroneously
The facts are these; The Cars advisers,
although deeply immersed in the affairs
of their own country, recognize Russia S
moral responsibility for the welfare of
the Slavs, and will eschew no exerton
to spare the Balkan peoples a cataclysm.
They know nothing of the treaty, except
ing what has been told them by the in
terested parties, but they feel strongly
that the one thing needed by all the states
of the peninsula is that the great cen
tral stream of Balkan life should flow
through channels made by the Balkan
peoples themselves, working deliberately
and untedly. The great taproot of flu
ture Balkan development is trust, friend
ship and cooperation among the nations
which were allies in the recent cam
paign. Russia, who has thought care
fully and disinterestedly about the whole
subject, would study it again in the light
of the Serbo- Bulgarian treaty and other
fresh data, and soon make up her mind as
to the most practical compromise under
the prevailing complex conditions of right
and expediency. But she will act only
as supreme arbiter, not as broker. Her
decision once pronounced. must be ac-
cepted by both parties and acted upon
without reserve. The Russian govern
ment cannot lend itself to the work of
haggling for terms, beating down one
size, persuading the other. and then find
ing her efforts criticised. If that pro-
cedure be necessary the Balkan govern
nients can indulge in it themselves. When
ever they are ready for arbitration. Rus
sia will be found willing to arbitrate. but
she cannot undertake mere mediation.

once rated as the greatest jockey in
America and possessor of fortune
estimated at more than $150,00O,

Moved by the story of the spectacular

him that he could not find it in his

one of the races in which he was
plotting 'Wilfull," one of big Tim
Sullivan's horses. His injury kept
him from the saddle from that day
on and, lured by the white lights OF
Broadway, Fuller began to set pace
in dissipation that surrounded him
with the usual crowd of good fel.

away.
He went through his S150,0O0 ir

Wilson himself, have joined the for

"The sentiments expounded by Will

Representative Covington, Democrat
of Maryland. They mean he wants
