days and nights the German army marching southward into Belgium.
 All the villages on the frontier lead coEfusedly bisected existence, belt of barb-wire as it were separating their heads from their feet. In these places the work of the Dutch sentries is mainly to search the people who pass, lest they carry on or out illicit merchandise. The German guards arc mostly concerned with keeping a look out for deserters or the able-bodied Belgians who seek to escape from German rule At a few points tho German side of the barb-wire fence is fuhther protected by wires carrying electric current, and searchlights play up and down the line during the night.
 In the towns which are 'bisected by the boundary line, there are two or three contrasts which strike the ob- served immediately. All the soldiers on one side of the line are in one tyi.e of uniform. while in the other half of the town there are just as many soldiers, but of course in a diff ferent type of dress. The sentry boxes on one side are red. white and blue, on the other side they are red, white and black.
 Part of the town of Baarle- -Hertog is Belgian, but it is saved from Ger man occupation owing to the fact that it is entirely surrounded by Dutch terrltory-a little Belgian island in the middle of Holland. There is no need of sentries here, and there is no wire to mark the invisible frontier which runs through the middle of tho main streets. From here to the real frontier one travels over a well-paved roadway which is Dutch, while the ditch at the side is Belgian. At the railway station, which is Baarle in Holland, and Wielde in Germany, the frontier runs straight through the ticket office and out across the plat forms on either side. A line of col ored tiling in the floor marks tho boundary and the words "Nederland'' and "BeIgique" are set into the con crete on either side. On both plat

AMERICAN MILLIONS
 DEVELOPING CHILEAN MINES
Ventures In South American Country
 Give Much Promise.

Big Business" interests of the Uni ted States have for some time been making large investments in various Latin American countries, particular ly 1T. mining enterprises in South Amer ica. The huge scale upon which some of these ventures have been pro- jected is brought out in an article in the August number of the Bulletin of the Pan American Union.

 Among the enterprises enumerated are the Armour packing plants in Argentina; the Dupont nitrate mines in Chile; the Bethlehem Steel Com pany's immense iron mines near Co., quimbo, Chile: the Morgan interests in the Cerroede Pasco Copper Com pany's mines in Peru; the Braden Copper Company's extensive copper plant at Rancagua, near Santiago, Chile: and last, but perhaps greatest of all. the Guggenheim corporation, known as the Chile Exploration Com pany, now completing the gigantic copper industry at Chuquicamata, near the town of Calama, on the Anto- fagasta Railway
 The mineral region of Chuquicamata is situated in the barren Chilean Antofagasta, at an altitude of $500 feet, and 40 miles from the snow-cap- ped peaks of the Andes. The exis- tence of the ore body has long been known and in fact has been worked on the surface for many generations by the natives; also to a small extent by EnElish companies. It is large

 Numerous mining and engineering problems presented themselves, some on account of the character of the ore and others on account of the location The electrolytic process for obtaining the copper being decided upon, a tremendous amount of electrical power was required. Owing to the scarcity of rivers or water from any source in this immediate section, it was found necessary to build a power plant on the coast at Tocopilla and to carry the power 10000 volts by transmits sion line of 100 miles in length to the mill site at Chuquicamata- Incident ally Eew types of towers and 1nsuia- tors were devised by the company's experts, who also overcome the prob lems attendant on the quick temper atuFe rises and the high altitude. Water for general as well 2S for do- nestic use was made available by the building of many pipe lines from the mountain streams of the Andes and pumping it long distances to the stor- age tanks on the property. The wa ters of these streams, however, are not potable, because of the great amount of nitrate in the soil through which they pass. and consequently the drink ing water has to be brought by tank cars from springs at Paniri and Tatio in Bolivia. The mill is hree-quarters of mile from the mine proper and is connected herewith by a railroad of standard gauge which uses large To- comotives of the latest type. imported from the United States.

 There is one place where the street is divided up the middle, so that Dutch and German shops face each other across barriers, of barb wire. On the further side of the street runs a street railway, which is in Germany. Separated from the tracks by high wire fence, there runs down the middle of the street a strip twelve feet wide which is neutral ground. Then comes another fence, and the narrow bit of road and pave ment beyond it are in Holland. At each street corner are narrow open ings to allow passage from one coun- try to the other sentries of each coun- try standing cafeful guard on either side. It is the main street of a busy town, and the ordinary town life flows back and forth, while little Dutch street boys talk to the German street boys through the meshes.
