 More interesting will be the ancient ruins that we expect to find, for Lindbergh and other fly CTS in Central America have prov en that the camera can detect the presence Of mounds and buried ruins that no explorer on foot would notice."
 Part Of their work will be done in the region of Chant Chan, cele- brated pre-Irca city in northern Peru, This was the stronghold of the Great Chimu, who was con- quercd hy the Incas in the fifteenth century The vast ruins, believed ! once to have been the greatest Indian city on the southern conti- | nent, already have yielded valu- able treasure.

tried various other means to carry off the water without avail.
 The committee decided to defer action and make an inspection of the condition complained of. The public works department will be asked for a report.
 In the other cases the committee took the stand that there was no li- ability on the part Of the city, Cor poration Counsel kirkham having so ruled when the same claims were heard several months ago. In time of heavy storms, the sewer in the northwestern section is not large enough to carry off the water and it rushes down the incline of Albany avenue, across Clinton and Broad streets, carrying poultry, cinder walks and gardens along with it.
 One of the claimants told the committee he would have a foot concrete wall constructed to keep the water from rushing down, and he would expect the city to stand half the cost. Others reminded the committee that they paid taxes to the city and they felt it was un- fair not to give them a sewer of suf- fcient size to carry off the water.

Five Young Cronies Seek Adyen-

Red Bank, N.

The Shippee-J Johnson Peruvian Expedi- ton has two planes, the encourage ment of science, some S50.O0o worth of equipment, carefully laid plans, and plenty of youthful en- thusiasm. For the mean age of the party is less than 26, And four Of the five arc skilled pilots,
 In the uncharted wilderness where prehistoric civilizations arc believed to have flourishcd, they expect to add materially to the knowledge of archae eologists, geo. graphers and geologists. They will make aerial maps and moving pictures and may find treasure in the age-old ruins which their cam eras will reveal. The expedition has the endorsement of the Ameri- can Geographical Society, the American Museum of Natural His tory, and the Harvard Geographi- cal Society. And the Peruvian government has agreed to assist the adventurers.

No Decision Of Protection From
 Sidewalk Fall Claims

No action was taken by the con- mon council claims committee last night on the proposed insurance plan by which it is claimed the city would be protected in cases of ac- Cidents resulting from icy and de- fectivc sidewalks and roadways. AL derman C. W. Parker. chairman, re- ported that the mayor and aldermen considered the plan and before talk ing action had decided to obtain the sentiment of the claims committee.
 In the past 10 years. the city has paid out s2.011 per year on an average, in settlement of damage claims, and a policy can be obtained at d cost of $2,177.10 for one year, Alderman Parkers reported. It is probable that the cost of accidents during the present year will be far in excess of the average and Alder man Parker favored insurance for one year at least. pointing out that if the plan did not work out satls- factoriy the city would not be bound IO toHtliluc lilc pOlits III ot1C fiIi - after
 After a discussion the meeting ad- iourned without taking action, and the mayor and aldermen. at a meet ing next Wednesday, will have the matter up for consideration again.

There is the local president, Grass,
