Peruvian Independence
 Day Finds Nation Still Unsettled

This is independence day in Peru, the anniversary of thief ormal declar- alton by which the ancient South American country the seat of the vast Inca empire conquered by Francisco Pizarro for Spain, threw off it's Euro pean allegiance and became a repub- lie Since San Martin, the Argentine patriot, and Simon Bolivar, the Hbera- tor drove the Spaniards out of the land, Peru has had many vic1ssltudes- The ninety-fourth anniversary of the declaration Of July 28, 1921, finds Peru still in a rather unsettled condi- ton, so far as it's government is con cerned, although there are indications that the factional differences which resulted in a revolution last year are now approaching a satisfactory solu- ton.
 In the general election of 1912 there was much riotng and disorder, as Peru was split into warning factions. but the choice of Guillermo Billing hurst for president seemed for a time to meet with popular approval Last year, however. the opponents or the poIices of the President became so numerous that Col. Benavides was able to lead a successful military re- yoIuti on President BilH71ghurst was captured and sent Into exile and Prime Minister VarelaJ was killed The deposed president went to Iquique, Gh11G, where He OlGlA Ae1SI v the last lie declared that he owed his downfall to an element that wished to exploit Peru for private gain, and de- cIared that it had been his purpose to ssbring Peru into contact with the great world. to stimulate it's industries. introduce cotton growing. open up mines, build railways and improve public hygiene.''
 In spite of political turmoil, Peru has made great industrial progress in the last twenty years. The unfortun- ate war with Chile. in 1879, resulted in the loss to Peru of it's richest prov ince, but the country rapdly recovered from that blow and forged ahead to a place among the foremost of Latin American republics. Peru is remark, ably rich in natural wonders and his toricaI background, and Lima. Pizar- ro's old City of Kings is a treasure trove for the tourist, and is reached by the highest railroad in the world The opening of the Panama. Canal. coupled with the war in Europe, is likely to make Peru a Mecca for North American tourists in the next few years.

He is associated with iebknecth and other socialist leaders who have op- posed the socialist war party, and while his adherents and co-workers comprise a minority of the Marxian party in Germany, they include a ma ority of influential men.

.PHlLATELISTS BUSY GATHERING RELICS
 OF BATTLE FIELDS
Cartoons and Posters Pile Up So Fast As to Become
 Burdensome.

Paris, July 28-Philate1ists and other collectors, far from being dis couraged by the state of war, have found extended opportunities from which they have well profited. Ger man postage stamps with the Belgian counter-mark, as we'll as genuins Bel gia,n stamps from uninvaded regions with the postmark fixing the date as a war date, are in very great demand as are also French postage stamps from the part of Alsace conquered since the war began. Soldiers let ters furnish a wide opportunity for enthusiasts who aim to acquire in that way a sort of physch ological collection showing the state of mind of the army along the entire front.
 There are many competitors for every copy of each of the 40 or more journals published by the soldiers at the front The different libraries of France are collectors of these our na1s. as we'll as the municipalities of the towns near where thjey are pub Hshed. Munici palities have also be- come collectors, upon the official sug- gestion of the minister of public in- struetion, of the newspapers and pe- eriodica1s published within their limits during the war. It is hoped in this way that no incident of life in any way relating to the war may escape the future historian.
 The collectors of postcards, who started out with much enthusiasm, found their courage put to a severe test before the war was a. month old. They now run into thousands of se- ries. with millions of subjects.
 Collectors of official war posters are so numerous now that high prices are offered for those available from regions that were, or are still, occu- pied by the Germans. These collec- tions also include the official French posters, beginning with the mobiliza- ton order and following with every subsequent notification to the public posted upon the walls of France Like the collectors of postcards. those who after the battle of the Marne care fully preserved every bullet or piece of shell they could get hold Of, have lost their interest since pilgrims to the nearest bonbarded towns. such as Senlis, and accessible parts of the bat t1efield of the darne now return loaded with this sort of thing and the market has been drugged.
 Cartoons and posters are still a popular subject for collectors. but they are accommodating so fast as to constitute a burden. There are also money Issued in different cities as a convenient remedy for the temporary scarcity of small coins.
 Writers with a budding ambition to become hostorians after the great war assemble piously all official com 3nunIques, all official announcemen ents. all the sdtscourses by official person ages and all letters exchanged be- tween heads of states. chiefs of armies, etc, having any bearing upon the origin are the developments of the conflict.
 Preparedness and posters of charft- able organizations. price-lists and commercial prospectuses showing the state of trade during the war. are also in demand. The latest fad is the col lection of finger rings made by sol diers at the front from the aluminium fuses of German shells.

VOLUNTEERS
 OF AMERICA

The Volunteers of America, the rival organization of the Salvation Army in the United States, was founded in 1896 by BalIington Booth, son of Gen. William Booth, the fath CT of the Salvation Army, Ballington Booth was born in England fifty-six years ago today, and served in the Salvation Army under his father for many years, later becoming com mander of the army in Australia. In 1887 he was made commander of the Am erfcan army, but in 1896 he re- signed and launched the Volunteers of America, of which he became pres ident and general-in- chief. The Vol unteers now have branches in nearly all the principal cities of the United States, and the organization has forty-eight homes and institutions of -benevolence. It is organized in mili- tary style along the lines of the Unit ed States army; it has achieved it's greatest success, perhaps, through the Volunteer Prisoners League, repre- sented in thirty American prisons. This league has had about S5,0O0
 members since&it was founded, and claims to have been instrumental in the recla nation of thousands of criminals.

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1s91-George Dixon knocked out Abe Willis in 5th round at San Fran cisco This contest was for the world s featherweight championship. although the boys fought at 115 pounds. The little negro was then generally recog- nized as the king of the feather weights in America, while Willis was a star in Australia, where he had fought a 2o-round draw with Griffo, probably the cIeverest boxer the ring has ever known. and had also fought a draw with Ike Weir Willis was the recognized bantamweight champion of Australia when he came to America to challenge George Dixon's claim to the featherweight title. Although un- equal to the job of beating the Choco- late Drcp, Willis made a very. favor able impression on the American box ing fans, and he is considered the best little boxer Australia has ever turned out, with the exception of Griffo. who was in a class all to himself.

pr. Max Nordau, 66 Today, a Friend of
 France in the War

Dr.. Max Nordau,s one of the most distinguished of Jewish authors and Journalists, will be sixty-six tomorrow A native of Budapest; Hungary, and Vienna neWspapers, Dr.# Nordaus has spent most Of his time in Paris since 1880. During the greater part of that period he has been the French correspondent, of the Berlin Xossiche zeitung and the Vienna. Neue Freie Presse. Because of his Hungarian birth, he was taken to a refugee camp at the beginning of the war; but was soon released. Early this year he wrote from Madrid to the Paris press that he had identified himself with France. his adopted France. and that his literary work would be done with the welfare of France in view.
 Describing his experiences imnedi- ate1ys following the war, Dr. ,Nordau wrote to the Berlin Vossiche Zeitung ..'The attitude Of the Parisians after the declaration of hostilities was dia- metrically opposed to that of the Der liners. where passions were unchain- ed to extreme lengths. There were some Germans in the party with whom I was taken to the police sta ton. The crowds in the streets were excited, but their actions were cor rect. They wished to see the Aus trians and Germans, but there was no hostile word. no evil look I heard people saying, Poor things The women offered us wine and wa ter, and refused any payment, say ing: We are French our pity cannot be paid for.'''
 pr. Nordau. was the son of a rabbi, and was educated in the Royal and Protestant gymnasiurns and the Royal University in Budapest and the Fac- ulty of Medicine in Paris. He travelled all over Europe before settling down as a physician in Budapest, but soon turned to literature and Journalism and settled in Paris: After writing several medical works, he gained in ternationa1 fame by his book ''Degen- eration," in which he bitterly attacked some of the modern schools of art and literature as forces hostile to so- cia1 and esthetic progress. Since then he has written many volumes which have had a wide circulation through out Europe and America, and which have been published in many tongues.

SERBIA PROFITS MUCH BY
 YANKEE CT0RS
United States Only Country Able to Supply Large
 Number of Physicians.

London, July 28.-A report just re- ceived from the British Red Cross workers in Serbia speaks very highly of the work of the American contin- gent there.
 '.The work of the Americans al- ready challenges comparison with what the British workers have done,' ,'' says the report, "and it promises soon to outstrip us. An International San itary Commission, of which Sir Ralph fPaget is chairman, has been estab- lished with headquarters in Nish. Un- der-sit the general medical and sani- tary work of the country has been roughly apportioned between the diff ferent cooperating nations France has charge of the north hern half of the country, and the United States of the south. Nish and it's immediate neigh borhood is under the Russians. The British have had the care of the army and most of the hospital work. except what the Serbians themselves are do- ing.
 ssThis plan is working smoothly and well; but the share of the burden which the United States is bearing continually increases, and will in crease pr. Richard Strong, head of the American Sanitary Commission, is an exceptional man of wide expert ence, and he has behind him the practically unlimited financial re- sources of the wonderful Rockefeller Foundation.
 ttThe United States, moreover, is the only nation which at the moment can spare an almost limitless supply of doctors. A party of 25 additional American doctors is expected shortly at Sa1onika. They are the advance guard of a contingent of 150 or more. As they land they will be detached, ,singly and in twos and threes, to points all over Serbia where they are most needed.
 s'The typhus has now been reduced to such comparatively trivial propor- -tions that one almost begins to speak of it in the past tense although there will be many thousands of deaths from it yet. The totaI. number during the winter and spring was we'll over 100000.
 '.There are now APO British doctors and nurses in Serbia. There have been no new wounded for some five months; .typhus and typhoid have de- clined until they are no longer a seri- ous public menace, and cholera, how ever, anxiously awaited. has not yet arrived.
