4IEW USE OF MOVING PICTURES
Moving pictures aro being put to
pew U80, which will result In the sav
ing of life and limb. Professor Mun
pterburg of Harvard Is responsible for
what Is known ns the cinematograph
nervo test, which Is eald will reduco
motor car acctdont In the United
States to a minimum. Tho professor's
(theory is that no young man ought to
become a chauffeur If his tests Indi
cate that ho would not bo quick enough
to stop his car If a child ran out In tho
Roadway In front of tho wheels, says
tho New Orleans Picayune In tho
test for chauffeurs ( at Hurvunl tho
subject Is placed in a motor car in a ;
imll equipped for tho purpose. Ho Is
ecatcd at tho wheel of tho machine,
which Is Jacked up so that all tho ma-,
chlnery Is inovablo, while tho car re-'
mains stationary. Tho experiments
aro conducted In a darkened room. In
front of tho cars is a whlto wall, on
which moving pictures of great stzo
are shown. They are Immediately bo
fore tho chauffeur studont's eyes. Tho
student Is then told to net as ho would
lu real llfo If ho saw any ono of tho
things happen that appear on tho
ficecn. Although ho knows that the
car is not actually running, tho fact I
that ho is under a test puts tho otu-1
dent on edge and makes him behave
approximately as ho would under or
dinary circumstances. A child is first
shown on tho screen with startling
realism, tottering ncross the road in
front of tho car. Tho chauffour Is, of
courso, expected to handio his cur
without an instant's loss of tlmo, Just
as ho would havo to do if tho emer
gency roso in real life. ThlB is tho
most Important tost to which tho
students aro subjected by tho Harvard

F tho thousands of people who inhabit
Lima, or of tho many who, In tho win

on tho Oroya railway, thero is probably
not ono in a hundred who knows any

Tho sacred city of Pachacamac Is known to, and
mentioned by overy traveler who includes LAnia

Investigation Is now turned upon tho

claBs. A parallel between tho casual
laborer of tho tenement districts and
tho salaried mlddlo class man was re
cently drawn, says tho Chicago Tri
bune. Tho middle class mnn was
worsted In tho comparison. His strug
gle to mako onds meet waH said to bo
keener than that of tho laborer who
acknowledged, by tho absenco of a
starched collar, that his work was
physical and violent, not mental and
"gentlemanlike." Thus tho problem
of poverty, so long exclusively asso
ciated with tho people of tho slums,
Is fast moving In tho direction of tho
mlddlo class man tho married clerk
the man with the white collar Ho
Is struggling to keep up a superior
dignity upon an lnf6rlor Income; tho

less of It goes for show. To remedy
this difficulty It has been suggested
that men and women of tho middle
class curtail their social aRplratlona..
Dut this la tho wrong remedy. The
mission of tho twentieth century is to

Profossor Savillo, of

that regrets were use

relinquish nil hope of ever seeing tho old Peru
vian city, whon I learned that tho departuro
fiom Callao of tho Ucayall had been postponed
for a day. Communicating this fact to Doctor Sa
villo, ho most grnclnuRly volunteered to accom
pany mo on tho morrow. It was an opportunity
1 readily grasped.
Thus it happened that wo mot by appointment
at tho Lima station of tho Oroya railroad at 8:30
on a morning early In July. Gray clouds, au
usually, hung heavily over the city whon we
boardod tho train, which soon pulled out Of tho
station, to begin tho steep Journey up tho Andean

whllo wo had a good, though dusty road, but tho
greater part of tho Journoy had to bo mado
through sandy plains, which did not lmprovo our
personal appoaranco, so that wo presented a pic
ture of dust and wretchedness on our return to
tho Hotel Maury In Lima. Our way was now

Cajamarqullla lies about 23 miles from Lima,
aB you ascend tho valley of tho Iliinao, but in n
sldo valloy, In a plain among tho spurs of tho
Andeu. Tho valloy Is watered by a canal, dug,
probably, at a period antedating tho advent of
tho Spanlurds. In the vicinity aro sovoral ha
ciendas, such as Huachlpa and La Nlverca, and
an occasional "tambo" or rural Inn, where, If
you caro to, eomo kind of rofroshmont may bo
had. Theso, however, aro hardly vlslblo from
tho ruins, near which ono Bolltary hut 'p to bo
seen. Years ago, when Squler visited tho place,
tho ruins were tho haunt of robbers that gave no
llttlo troublo to tho Peruvian authorities,' but tho
railroad has driven them out of business, and It
Jl&ggZ' G&M$r J7T CAJVTL&QZZU&Jir-
is now qulto safo to visit Cajamarqullla. In fact,
tho thought of robbers was not connected in my
mind with Cajarmarqullla, until I read Squler's
work.
During our brief stay among the ruins It was
ImpoBBiblo to mako anything llko measurements,
oxcept with tho eye, but na far as tho vision ex
tended towards tho mountain wo saw nothing
but ruins which stretched to a great distance to
right and left. Toward tho river they seemed to
melt away into tho plain. Squler says that they
covor an area of nearly a squaro league, and
MIddendorf estimates their extent at four squaro
kilometers. From my observations, tho ruins
consist of houses built of Immenso adobo blocks,
closely adjoining each other, hero and thero sep
arated by streets. Somo of tho houses consist
of several apartments. Admission is gained
through a low doorway, but nowhoro la thore n
sign of a window. As in Pompeii, tho roofs,
whatever may havo been tho material of their
construction, havo long slnoo fallen in. Outside
tho buildings, the soil has risen to a great height,
Bometlmea nearly to the top of tho wall, but in
Bide the walla tho depth gives an idea of tho
orlginnl height of perhaps 10 feet or more. To
ward tho mountain, a large portion of tho city la
almost completely burled in tho sand, which In
tho courso of ageB has como drifting down from
the hills Thore aro within tho city a fow eleva
tions or small hills, which may havo been occu
pied by temples or forts. Pits aro everywhere
within and without the houses, with a width of
from two to four and a depth ranging from six
to twenty feet or moro. Human remains lu the
shape of skulls and bones aro found within tho
pits or scattered over tho ground, together with
bits of pottery and other articles, such as corn
cobs, which wero probably Interred with tho
dead. Somo of theso pits aro said to havo perved
tho purposes of storehouses or granaries, whllo
others wero certainly graves. The inhabitants of
thi city burled their dead within or in tho imme
dlato vicinity of thoir housos, although tho mass
of tho people must havo used tho necropolis,
somo distance away from tho residences. Many
of theso pits, excavated in tho hard soil, are lu
tho form of a Jar or urn, while others aro square.
Squler thus describes tho ruins as he saw

A full two-story seven-room house

Increases In size, and wo are obliged
to build houses to fit tht, changing
conditions. Whc. a village has ono

tiquity, and a possible destruction of the place long
boforo tho advent of tho Europeans, wero it not for
what Estcto tolls us. Miguel Esteto accompanied
Hernando Pizarro from Caxamarca to Pachacamac,
at tho tlmo when Atahualpa's people were scouring
tho country to collect BUfllcient gold for the ransom
of their unfortunate chief. Ho gives us the itiner
ary of Hernanflo day by day until the return to
Caxamarca. Wherever he goes he finds tho country
thickly populated with towns and villages, surround
ed by cultivated fields of malzo and orchards, with
flocks of a kind of Bheep. Ho Judges that Pacha
camac is of considerable antiquity, and ho finds
within It a certain number of ruins. No mention Ib
mado of Cajamirquilla, yet It is probablo that his
Journey led him tnrougn
the valley of tho Rlmac,
and Markham even sup
poses that he passed
over tho present site of
Lima.
According to MIdden
dorf, who Infers his
statement from Estete'a
narrative, the valley was
at that time thickly
populated, having be
sides many smaller
p 1 a c o s three largo
towns, Huadca, now Hua
tlca, Armatambo, and
Cajamarqullla. Huadca,
he says, was the princi
pal town of tho district.
Its ruins still exist be
tween Lima and tho vil
lage of Magdalena, but
they seem to bo even
less known than thoso
of Cajamarqullla.
The valley, together
with tho entire coast,
was overrun antl con
quered by tho Inqas, a
century or moro before tho arrival of the Span
iards, about the tlmo that theso lords of tho
Poruvian uplands Imposed their rule on tho
Grand Chlmu farther north and on Pachacamac.
Though there Is llttlo or nothing to indicate an
Inca occupation at Cajamarqullla, it is qulto like
ly that after tho conquest Ub population moro or
less mingled with the conquerors. To Judge from
tho names of places in tho conquered districts,
tho victors imposed their language, no doubt
gradually supplanting the original tongue of the
valleys and coastlands. Caxamarca Is a Quechua
name, meaning "rock city." Caxamarqullla Is tho
Spanish diminutive of Caxamarca. The city in
tho Rlmac valley was thus called Llttlo Caxa
marca, to distinguish It, no doubt, from that othor
Caxamarca to tho north, so intimately connected
with tho sad history of Atahualpa.
Among old writers who havo treated of the
coast pooplo that preceded tho Incas, Don Fran
cisco do Avlla, priest In the principal village of
Huarochlri, may bo profitably consulted. His
work was translated and published by Sir Clem
ent Markham, In the forty-eighth volume of the
Hnkluyt series.
Unfortunately, Cajamarqullla furnishes little
data to the archaeologist. It contains no inscrip
tions, no works of nrt, and Its pita havo been
opened and searched, probably by treasure hunt
ers, who rtavo long slnco carried off any objects
of valuo thoy may havo contained.
Yet tho ruins aro of the greatest interest for
tho beauty of their situation, their general plan,
and their adobo architecture. Cajamarqullla
must rank as one of the finest remains of that
mysterious pre Inca civilization which existed on
tho coast between tho Pacific ocean and the
mighty Andean ranges. Unlike the massive
ruins on Lake Titicaca, or tho oft-mentioned
Pachacamac, it has attracted llttlo attention on
tho part either of tourist or scientist, and its
history does not exist. Yet a careful study ol
Its houses, with their apartments, of Its streets,
and of Its burial places may, I think, throw some
light on the modo of life of the primitive people
that onco dwelt within It. Tho othnologlst may
also find some material In the skulls that lie
scattered throughout tho ruined city, or burled
in its pits.
Ab you wander through tho Itlmac valley and
contemplate its vast solitudes and crumbling
ruins, you ask yourself what has become of the
population. Alas, what has becomo of tho Indian
population of tho West Indies, and where are
our Indians of the United States? Thoy have
molted away boforo Caucasian civilization.
s Somo day a patient explorer and archaeologist
may pitch his tents among tho ruins of Cajamar
qullla to study them In detail and forco them to
reveal some of thoir secrets. At least ho may
give us a plan of tho city, and reconstruct it,
drawing Borne ordor from its confusion.
For tho present, Cajamarqullla Is a myBtery.
It has neither history nor tradition; no legends
cluster around It; Its exlsteuco Is Ignored; even
archaeologists appear to neglect It It Ib, In very
truth, a dead city of tho desert.
