CHILE IS LAND OF WONDERS.
TrnveIoEue Lecturer Describes the
Wealth and Beauty of Republic.

In the third travelogue OF the z. NJ.
Newman series on South America" at
the Belasco Theater last evening, Chile
occupied most of the attention Of the
speaker.
The journey began at Montevideo, the
capital city Of Uruguay. which the
scenes depicted as not unlike any Of our
metropolitan cities. Glimpses of this
smallest republic of the South American
continent left the impression Of pro-
gressive and great country.
Chile is a country Of great opportunity
for the North American, Mr.. Newman de-
clared. Its farm lands are the most
fertile the conditions for cattle raising
are ideal, and the mineral wealth Of the
country is limltless.
The speaker described northern Chile
as natures laboratory, with its fields of
nitrate OF soda. borax and other minerals
and as the storehouse of Chilian wealth
with its nests Of copper, silver and gold.
He stated the United States Steel Com
pany has recently purchased in Chile two
mountains of solid iron, to be dug away
and smelted in the United States, and
that the Guggenheim interests have es-
tablished great smelling plants in north
ern Chile, and other American enter
prises are springing up as a result Of
the opening of the Panama Canal
Inspection of Valparaiso, and Of the
quaint town OF Antofagasta, in the heart
of the nitrate district, closed the lee
ture.
