GhAN-ChAN.
HHAN-CHAN is not, as the name
u would indicate. a place in China.
It is one Of the Oldest cities in Peru,
or in the world. The Chimus who
built Chan-Chan are supposed to have
been an elderly race when the meas
were yet barbarians. After time the
Incas beGame civilized and powerful
and captured Chan-Ch Then Pizar-
70 came to power and wrecked the
city and massacred the inhabitants.
So much Of the Chimus history is
deducted from the remains of Chan
Chan and old Spanish narratives.
The people who inhabited the old
metropolis were moon worshipers
The moon. they said, was the most
worthy deity of nature, for it shone
not only at night but also in the day
whereas the sun could shine in the
day only The sea was supposed to be
under the special protection Of the
MOON because +he latter controlled
tides. Images OF fish, and other sea
creatures. and temples TO both moon
and sea were therefore built by the
Chimus and many have been uncov-
cred in the ruins OF their city.
Chan-Chan has since the time of
Pizarro been a heap of wreckage.
There are palaces, workshops, factor
les. and great battered pyramids built
up in terraces and surmounted by
buildings These are the mounds in
which the Chimu dead once lay. Like
the Egyptians, these people buried
with their dead many articles of their
personal property. From one of these
mounds a Spanish adventured OBJ
tanned 100000 worth OF gold and sill

JOINT SESSION TO
HONOR PERSHINC

A joint session Of Congress will be
held in the House next Thursday in
honor of Gen. John J. Pershing.
Vice President Marshall will preside
and deliver an address in behalf OF the
Senate, Speaker Gillett will make an
address on behalf of the House, and
Former Speaker Champ Clark, veteran
member from Pershing's home State,
Missouri; will present a sword Of honor
to the commander.
Chairman julius Kahn, Of the House
Military Affairs Committee, yesterday
introduced in the House formal res
olution extending the thanks Of Con-
Eress to General Pershing and to the
officers and men under his command.
The Kahn resolution also carries
an appropriation Of $4,000 for the
purchase of a sword of honor.
Since President Wilson will be away
on his speaking tour in the West it
may not be possible for the formal
presentation of the sword to take
place, because it would be impossible
to have the measure signed and the
blade purchased and properly decor
ated in the short time intervening.
A Joint committee from the Senate
and House is preparing program for
the occasion. Some details are yet to
be agreed on.
There was some discussion Of hold
ing the ceremonies in front of the
Capitol. 1t would be necessary to
erect a platform similar to that used
at Inauguration ceremonies and for
this reason that plan was abandoned.
