WASHINGTON, d. c., March 15.-
Under the leadership of DR.. Hiram
Bingham, the National Geographic So
ciety-Yale University Peruvian Ex-
pedition sailed from New York yester-
day to continue it's work in the Andean
Mountains, in the hope of finding the
kew to the mysteries of the New
Worlds past. The Inca and Aztec civ
ilizations which fourished in this hem
isphere before the arrival of those
eold-hungry adventures and dcstroyers
who followed in the wake of Columbus
have an inexpressibly melancholy in
terest for us in that our traditions OF
them indicate how complete systems of
culture may be swept away ard hardly
leave a trace. Work already accom-
plished in the Peruvian Andes by DR..
Bingham under the auspices of the Ma
tional Geographic Society and Yale
University suggests that the clue has
been found to the history of the Inca5,
and that we will be able to clear up
much of the mystery concerning that
civilization which the conquistadores
ruthlessly laid waste.
In a concealed valley in the high
Andes of Peru, the American Tibet
DR.. Bingham has discovered one of the
lost Inca cities, which he now believes
to be the famous Machu Picchu of In

and last hidden abode of Inca power,

scientists have forced the dead civil

GERMANS AND

SAME LOOKOUT
(By Associated Press.l

PARIS, March 15-The mystery of a
one farm house which stood for
months unchanged on a conspicuous
knoll in the very heart of the battle
zone near Roye, with nothing but ruins
all about it, has just been cleared up
by French infantry captain.
From this building the French watch
ed the operations of the Germans in
their trenches a quarter of a mile
distant. They expected every day to
become the target for the German ar
tillery which played all around and
even demolished the hut of an old
peasant woman only a hundred yards
away. Every morning at dawn, they
crept up to the place from the rear
and took their observations A peas
ant farther back of the lines suggested
that the owner of the farm had paid
the Germans a round sum to spare his
property and this explanation prevail
ed for some time.
One morning as the French approach
ed the place they were met by the
peasant woman whose hut had been
demolished and who had taken refuge
in the cellar of the farm house.
"A spy came last night into the gar
ret OF the farm house" she declared,
land he made Illuminated signals to
the Germans from the window" The
French officers could not believe it.
The next day and the next the old
peasant declared positively that she
had again seen the man come and had
seen the light shining from the win
dow. "a spy couldn't possibly slip
through our line of pickets," the officer
insisted.
The following morning the woman
asked the officer to take particular
notice of the stairs eading to the gar
ret. In a thin coating of ashes that
she had spread over the steps mans

SERIOUS WHITE
EMINENT RUSSIAN
STATESMAN DEAD
WAS MEMBER OF JAP.RUSS0
PEACE CONFERENCE.
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, March 15.-Count Sergius
Julovich White, Russia's first prime
minister, and who several years ago
occupied a prominent place in the
councils of his nation, died last might,
says a Reuter- dispatch from Petrograd
early today. The end followed short
illness, the nature of which is not dis
closed in early advices. Count White
was sixty-six years old.
The dead statesman, who was one
of the Russian plenipotentiaries at the
Portsmouth, n. H, peace conference
at the end of the Japanese war,
gained renown by his wide knowledge
of events and diplomatic ability, being
created count, after the close of the
conference with the Japanese peace
commissioners. He was born June 80,
1S49, the son of distinguished parents
and early attained prominence. He had
held no prominent Office since 1906,
when he resigned the post of news
minister, and retired to enjoy the
fruits of his labor.
