PICTURES TONIGHT.

Tonight at the Chautauqua Luther
Manship and the moving pictures will
occupy the evening. 1t will be one OF
the best entertainments ever offered at
the Chau,auqua. The moving pictures
are a wonder. Nothing like Them has
ever before been seen in Colorado. To.
night the pictures will run for one hour.
Among the scenes is "A Trip to the
Moon" film that requires ten minutes
and is astonishing in its effects of beauti
full dissolvlng views. The vi,agraph
carried the audience by storm last night
and the concluding scenes representing
the story of Cinderella sent the audience
home in a daze. Today nothing but
praise is heard of the performance.

SCIENCE SCORES AGAIN.

A Preparation Discovered That Will Cure

Finally the scientific student has dis.
covered a certain remedy for dandruff.
When it first became known that dan.
druff is the result of germ or parasite
that digs into the scalp, and saps the
vitality of hair at the root, causing fall
ing hair and badness, biologists set to
work to discover some preparation that
will kill that germ. After years labor
in one laboratory. the dandruff germ de-

Cleveland. April 227.-The Iron Trade
Review says: The iron trade has not
been stampeded after the Wall street
fashion by the sensational Develop
nentss of last week. The announce
ment concerning the overproduction in
wire products and the order for the
closing OF some OF the American Steel
Wire Company's mills have been fol-sI
lowed by sharp reductions In the prices
fof that company, wire nails being low
l.ered 81 key. or to 1920, Pittsburg
mill. to the jobbing trade, and $235,
| 3Pittsburg, to the retail trade in carload
lilots. The fact that wire and wire nails
| had advanced more rapidly and to a
| higher point relatively than other prod
i.ucts accounts for portion Of the re-
lsduction. That 1t was calculated to be
issWeeping enough to carry with 1t
Large reduction In the price OF billets
! is another considera ton. Still another
\ is the fact that competition Is Begin
/ ming to show itself in the wire trade.
/ An Ohio concern with connected rod
mill, steel plant and blast furnaces,
4 and the newly started Birmingham,
Ala, plant have between them ca
ispacity sufficient to be felt in q waiting
market. Thus far there is no action by
1.-THE large steel producers nor any state
ment from them Indicating the estab-
slishment of a new price for billets.
Transactions are few and small and 332

| ket. Since any change OF the steel
basis will involve Bessemer pig iron
Salso, further developments in finished
\ materials may be awaited to better
gauge consumption.
4 The iron trade in general has done
little in the past week. The average
4 buyer considered that time of excite
ment was not time to go into the
market. 1t is impossible as yet to
measure the effect OF the happenings
\ in American Steel Wire Company af-s
fairs on other departments OF the trade.
4 No revision is made OF the views OF Au-
liberties in the trade recorded last
week. that consumption is sustained in,
4 a remarkable way considering the gem
4 eral expectation Of lower prices. In the
Il past week. with trade at a standstlll in
so many lines, there have been several
noteworthy transactions. Southern

Dispute

Not Inclined to Mix in Peru.Chile
Dispute.
Washington, April 27.-The present
dispute between Chill and Peru is a
legacy of the last war between those
TWO countries about fifteen years ago.
One of the terms of peace was that the
victor, Chill, should occupy the two
provinces of Tacna and africa, aijoin-
ing the Chilian boundary on the north,
fora period of ten years. AT the end
of that period the people of the prov
.inces were to determine by their vote
whether their land should remain in
the possession of Chilli or revert to Pc.
ruviall sovereignty. In the first case
Chilli was to pay Peru l0,O00.OOO silver.
soles, while II the provinces were re-
turned to Peru the government of that
country Was To pay Chill correspond
now that the treaty provisions on this
point was not executed, that there was
no plebiseit,a aud that no money was
passed.
Because the United States was deep.
3ly interested in bringing about the
peace which terminated the bitter war
between Chill and Peru ii is probably
assumed by the Peruvians that our.
government likewise retains an interest;
inthe faithful execution of the. terms of
the treaty, 1t must. however, be adj
mitted that up to this time our govern.
ment has not manifested any particu-
lar interest in the subject and has not
even received any applifation, secret.
or otherwise, from either of the parties
to intervene at this last phase, tho the
reports from South America seem to
indicate a purpose on the part Of the
Peruvians at leas, to enlist our SYM
pathies in their behalf.

TYERE oar Be NO EXTEJ
WITHOUT An INTER-
bridge to or from Hull, and only the

bridge to or from Hull, and only the
5foolhardy attempted 1t.
When the fire jumped across the river
the most intense excitement prevailed
in the capital. AS the electric light plant
had been destroyed, parliament, oil mos
tor of the premier. Sir Wilfrid I4aurier,
adjourned. Thousands of people from all
parts of the city flocked to parliament
hill to watch the progress OF the flames.
The scene from there was terrible.
Away up to the north OF the court
5hous in Hull the fire had started and a
solid wall of flames, surmounted by a
dense mass Of smoke, marked its way
down to the Chaudiere bridge. Then.
leaping the river. the fire, famed by
the north wind, spread across them In
the direction Of the experimental farm.
Fl Below was a red mass of flame, and
mounting high into the heavens a great
pail OF cloud streaming southwark be-
fore the wind. Now 1t was dense black,
and now. amber. as the sun pierced It,
and away up on the summit 1t foated
clear and translucent.
The scene was imposingly grand. In
the path of the flames were hundreds
of homes being destroyed and thousands
of people trembling with fear.
From the blazing lumber piles at the
jChaudiere great masses Of burning lum-
Der tumbled into the swift current and
drif,ed in masse Of flames az far down
as Nepean Point and Gatineau Point.
Occasionally one drifted in shore to lum-
Der piles under the cliff below the SUI
prelne court. and men had all they could
do TO prevent 1t catching. A burning
mass of boards drifted in8and set fire to
the brushwod just under the Cliff, oppo-
site the parliament buildings, but was
quickly extlnguished.
The bridge is gone was the shout
from the crowd on parliament hill about
33::ao o'clock. This was the iron bridge
just below the Chaudiere Falls, connect
ing Hull With Ottawa. 1t had probably
been Ecorched by the flames. and, the
iron pillars warping and the stone abut-
ments cracking from the heat. dropped
into the river and sank out Of sight.
