Wtrste discovered in what is now northern Chile more than 100 years ago have meant much to the country econom ically during the last half century. But the perfection of processes in Europe to extract nitrogen electrically elec-trically from the air, and the growth of ammonia products from coal distillation dis-tillation has greatly reduced the preferred position that Chile long held. First opened np In 1830 when the region was under Peruvian and Bolivian Bo-livian ownership, the mining operations opera-tions did not reach a great magnitude magni-tude until Chile annexed the territory terri-tory In 1880. After that the world's demand for nitrate grew so great that by 1913 Chile exported between two and three million tons. The World war increased the demand, for nitrate Is the chief raw material mate-rial for explosives as well as for wheat and cotton growing; and Chile's desert deposits kept the guns of the allies boomine. If one would get a quick concep tion of the Importance, the lovely surroundings and the climate of Santiago, Chile's capital, be should set San Francisco or Los Angeles down in the most beautiful fnland position of the Valley of California. give the Sierra Nevadas 4,000 feet more height and pile on them more generous caps of snow. Santiago, with its nearly three-quarters three-quarters of a million population, is fairly comparable In size to Pitts' burgh and Boston. Among the Spanish Span-ish cities of the world only Madrid and Barcelona in the Old world, and Buenos Aires and Mexico City la the New, exceed It. But it is no on,slz that admirers' admir-ers' of Santiago base their eulogies. The city, like our own capital, has a subtle charm all Its own.- Much of this is due to its location. Many travelers agree that It has the most beautiful and inspiring setting of all the great Inland cities of the world. It Is situated near the upper end of a . mountain-rimmed valley, 40 miles long by 20 miles wide. Ten miles to the east the Andes rise to heights greater than 18,000 feet, pre senting a towering wall always snow-capped. On the west Is a low er coast range; and to the south stretches a level expanse of fertile farming land divided Into large es tates. Park of Santa Lucia. Santiago is built on the plain, but within it rises a 400-foot hill cov ering several hundred acres, which has been made into one of the world's unique parks. Once nearly bare, the hill of Santa Lucia has been transformed into an enchant ing modern hanging garden of groves and flower beds, winding roads and trails, cascades, terraces, sylvan theaters and observation kiosks. From Its slopes. one may obtain numerous charming vistas, and from its top Santiago 1 lies spread out In all Its lovely details. It Is a city predominately of low, flat-rocfed buildings, for the hand of Spain lies heavy npon It in all matters of habit and custom. But for all that the old Spanish life has taken on a briskness that must be bred of the West There is a movement move-ment and bustle that modifies much of the Influence of Old Spain, and which at the same time stamps San tiago unmistakably a metropolis. The axis of life In Santiago Is the beautiful Alameda de las Dellcias "the tree-lined avenue of the de lights," which cleaves the city In two. Its great breadth of 350 feet Is divided by four rows of stately trees. Down the center Is the Paseo, a broad promenade, Fined with many flower beds and statue- studded little parks, along which In numerable nursemaids herd their romping charges. On either side of the Paseo are the tracks of the elec tric street railway, and farther out side are broad highways. The Ala meda Is lined with many of the finest residences and public build Ings of the capital. The lover of fresh air comes Into his own In Santiago's delightful dl mate. Great crowds promenade on the Paseo and In the plazas eacb I evening. Most of the dwellings are or tne Spanish type with open court In the center. In which most f th ramlly'a time Is spent. The stree" cars are double-deckers, with th npper seats open. Those who wlsli to climb the steps and enjoy the al and the view pay a smaller fee than we passengers who ride cm tb . Sfe mmm STAGE COACH TALES By E. C. TAYLOR SLOW TO CHANGE NAMES OF CITIES Americans Not Prone to Make Alterations. The Congressman's JaUm TOM CORWIN, famous Ohio RtOfACmon n l .,..i mvoujuu uuu yupuioT orator of a century ago, has a keen sense of humor, and because of his dark complexion, played a Joke on an obsequious tavern keeper one time, that was often related up and down the length of the National road and at Washington. rom In bis early days was a wag oner, a driver of freight wagon trains along the great east-west highway, and the rallying cry of his friends In the campaign that elected hlrn governor of Ohio was, "Hurrah for Tom Corwin, the wag-oner wag-oner boyl" Because of his dark COmnlPTtnn Tom frequently was mistaken for a negro by strangers. At that time the race distinction was very much pronounced. Once, when he was a member of congress, he passed over the National Na-tional road In a chartered coach in company with Henry Clay and oth- er distinguished gentlemen, en route to Washington, D. 0. The party stopped one day at an old stage tavern, kept by Samuel Cessna at the foot of Town hill, in a place also known as "Snib Hollow," Hol-low," 25 miles east of Cumberland, Md. Cessna was fond of entertaining entertain-ing guests and was particularly anxious to cater to these distinguished distin-guished travelers. The tall form of Tom Corwin at tracted his attention. He noted Tom's swarthy complexion and beard his companions call him Tom and supposed he was the servant of the party. Cessna had met Clay before and knew him. The party ordered 'dinner, and then someone suggested drinks all around to relieve the tedium of travel and excite n appetite for the expected dinner. Cessna hur ried to his storeroom and produced bottle of fine old cognac, the tony" drink of the old pike. The finest drink of the day was brandy and loaf sugar, lighted by a taper and burnt Popular tradition had it that If burnt brandy couldn't save a man" In need of physical relaxation, re-laxation, his case was hopeless. The zealous old landlord pro duced this drink, and handed It first to the other gentlemen in Corwin's party. After each of the others had stepped up to the bar and been served, Cessna, in a patronizing way, offered a glass to Corwin, say-tog "Tom, you take a drink," Corwin drank off the glass in an humble manner and returned it to the landlord with modest thanks. The others in the party saw what was transpiring and kept straight faces. ' Dinner then was announced and when the party entered the dining room, they saw that a side table, after the custom of " the time, had been set for their "servant" Corwin went over to the side ta ble and sat down, while the others gathered around the sumptuous feast at tte mam tame, au dj himself In the corner, Corwin en- Joyed an excellent meal.

Boston Transcript ASTROLOGY'S HOLD ON EASTERN MIND Astrology, which is as clearly one of the oldest of superstitions as astronomy as-tronomy Is the oldest of the sciences, appears to have reached Its climax In the West In the Fourteenth and Fifteeuth centuries, when Its position posi-tion was one of great honor and importance im-portance In the courts of Europe. But the combined effect of the Co-pernlcan Co-pernlcan astronomy, the Reformation, Reforma-tion, and the Renaissance was to sap Its foundations, and after the middle of the Seventeenth century Us decline was rapid and unchecked. In the East, however, which was Its real home, and where Copernicus counted for little and Luther for nothing, It has had a far longer life and a far stronger hold, and doubtless doubt-less has a wide vogue still. In Egypt, India, China, and Chaldea It was the subject of elaborate study and high honor almost from the dawn of history. his-tory. The special eminence of Chaldea in this department Is attested by the Bible when It tells us of Daniel's appointment by Nebuchadnezzar as "master of the magicians, astrologers, astrolo-gers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers." And it is a probable conjecture that the wise men from the East wh followed fol-lowed the star to Bethlehem some five centuries later were magi and astrologers from Chaldea. If, after the lapse of 19 more centuries cen-turies this strange hybrid of science and superstition which flourished so vigorously under the clear skies of the plains of Shinar still retains much of its ancient power, the fact is not to be attributed solely to the conservatism of what till the last few years really was an unchanging East While In the West religion has helped science to discredit astrology, its hold npon the East has apparently appar-ently been strengthened by the great religious reformation which now claims more than 200,000,000 adherents. Man began his mental emancipa tion by doubting a graven Image; and now It is hard to get him to believe anything.
