San Juan. Porto Rico. Aug. 12 -From
the im.puon of American government
in the i.-land particular attention has
been gln to extending the school sys
tem According to the census of 18-19
only 15 Yr cent of the population over
- s ol' of age could road ami write.
in Ortoher 1M. when Americans ar
rri'ono Hko. there 3S0 pub-
lr schools for hoys and US for Bins,
lit" an enrollment of i.6 and an
ritual attendance of 18.243 These
schools wre maintained by the local
communities, were Hoiked In bul d ngs
temporarily rented and used as living
quarters for the teacher and his family;
were ungraded, poorly 'equipped and
manned by teachers Inadequately and
irregularly paid. These teachers held
permanent licenses, and honce were sub
ject to no test as to proficiency.
In 1901 there were only 733 schools
in the Island, with an average aggregate
daily attendance of 3.45-. After that
there was a steady and nearly uniform
growth until in 191-0 there were -4;0
Schools with an average aggregate da ly
attendance of 84.1:58. These figures in
clude all the schools in the island under
the direction of the department of edu
cation. . . .
The organisation which has brought
about such a degree of educational de
velopment Is largely centralised in the
department of education, one of the
seven coordinate executive departments
of the Insular government. At the
head of the department Is the commis
sioner of educaton. appointed by the
president of the United States, and to
-whom la given, by the organic act of
the island, power "to superintend public
Instruction throughout Porto Rico." By
the same act all disbursements for edu
cational purposes mus be approved by
hlra. In each of the 66 municlpaltles
are school boards in charge of the local
sahool Interests, but the formulation of
the course of study (which is uniform
for the island), the certification of
teachers, the examination of pupils to
determine their progress and other gen
eral powers reside In the department of
education.
The efficiency of the instruction
through the grade is intrusted to the
assistant commissioner, who Is also
chief of the dlvsion of supervision. Di
rectly under him are three general su
perintendents, who spend most of their
time in the field, and 40 supervising
principals, who are in charge of the dis
tricts consisting of one or more mu
nicipalities. The salaries of teachers, amounting
to over $720,000, are paid from the in
sular treasury. In addition, the school
boards pay a small monthly r'lowance
in lieu of house rent. The maximum
and minimum salaries of teachers below
high school grade are $95 and $33 a
school month.
Of the entire population of the island
one In every n'ne went to school dur
ing the 1909-1910 school year, 121.453
different children being enrolled,
against 144. S15 this school year a
larger proportion than for any other
people of the western hemisphere save
those of the United States and Canada.
The rural schools are by far the most
numerous. With few exceptions they
are located in the country districts
wherever needed, and are often reached
by long, hard climbs up the mountain
trails. At the close of the 1S10-1911
school year there were 1610 of these
schools.
In six districts 10 special teachers of
agriculture furnish theoretical and
practical instruction in this branch, and
gardens are maintained In connection
with the work. Kxtended courses in
agriculture are offered at Rio Piedras,
a suburb of San Juan, by the univer
sity. In the high schools and the university
instruction in manual training and In
domestic science is given. Courses in
sewing have been established In all
towns, and in many instruction in cook
ing and military science is offered.
Within tVo years Jli3 public school
libraries were established, containing
over 25, 000 volumes.
Fully equipped playgrounds have been
established and lO.O'.o youths of both
vexes use them, and are developing a
sturdiness of physique hitherto un
known to the children of the tropics.
At the last interscholastic athletic meet
there were over 200 contestants, and
the records mad w ould have been cred
itable to boys of equal age In any part
of the world.
School hanls have been founded in
SI munelpHlitles. T ihem 9404 pupils
deposited $K8MJ during the school year
3909-1910. Of this number of depObl
trs 693 started individual accounts in
the national city banks of the towns in
which they live.

BANDITS HOLD UP
PASSENGER TRAIN
Railway Officials Knew of
Plans, but Did Nothing to
Prevent Robbery.
(Unlttd Pi-aa Leaied Wire.)
St. Louis, Aug. 12. A special train
of the Wabash railroad was held up
and robbed by five masked men in a
secluded spot between Nameoki and
Granite City, 111., late this afternoon.
The train was brought to a stop by
a pile of ties placed on the track. A
score of passengers, including many
women and girls, were forced to get
out and give up what valuables they
possessed. The five masked men were
armed with shotguns. They disappeared
in the woods beside the tracks after
warning the engineer to continue his
run as if nothing had happened.
Attempts by several passengers to
escape met with a fusillade of shots
from the robbers. None of the pas
sengers was injured, however, most of
them returning to submit to a search
of their clotiiing.
The Wabash, officials were cognizant
of the plans for Uie robbery, but they
failed to take any steps to prevent it.
The affair was staged for the benefit
o a moving picture company, which
had stationed several cameras at each
side of the tracks.
Vegetarian Food Co. Loses
$916 Safe Unharmed,
Drawers Taken.
Some time between sundown on Fri
day night and sundown last night, rob
bers, who knews the habits of the
Seventh Day Adventists, entered the
Vegetarian Food company's establish
ment, conducted by II. H. Hayne's, at
64-61 Kast Seventh street north. In
some mysterious manner, gained access
to the safe and stole $!lfi, of which
$456 was in cash and $460 was in
checks.
The discovery of the robbery was not
made until 8 o'clock last night, when
Haynes returned to his place of busi
ness after having observed his Sabbath,
opened the safe which was securely
locked, and, to his amazement, found
the cash drawer containing all the
money, also a drawer containing his
private papers, including deeds, stocks
and other valuables, missing. The out
side door of the safe was not scratched
nor did the inside sheet iron door show
any signs of having been forced open,
but thu two drawers that are missing
were gouged out and carried away.
From the manner In which the Job
was done the detectives are inclined to
believe that it in an "inside" Job; that
is. that some one knowing the combin
ation of the safe and the habits of
the management is responsible for the
Job.
Haynes, however, declares tha he
knows absolutely that no one who knew
the combination could have any con
nection with the robbery. The front
doors were not forced open, and this
leads to the belief that the person
who opened the safe had a regular
pass key to the front door, but Haynes
states that ho believes that entrance
was trained through the Iron doors in
the sidewalk which'' lead . to the base
ment To refute the Idea- of the Job being
done by an "Insider" is the fact that
a well known safe man, who has a
nation ,-ide criminal reputation of being
an expert on opening safes by listening
to th dropping of the tumblers, wss
seen on the streets recently- and ajl
patrolmen and detectives were warned
against him and cautioned to keep
their eyes on all safes along their
beats.
Detectives Carpenter and Prices were
assigned to the. Job but wero unable
last night to get the least trace of the
robbers.

Influential citizens of Portland
formed tentative plans yesterday after
noon looking to the organization of a
"Good Citizens' league," and it Is ex

sociation will take on definite shape.
Several prominent citizens called on
Police Commissioner John B. Coffey
and offered to assist financially and
personally in the formation of at: asso
ciation of men that will see to it that
the city Is purged of blatant vice and
the class of citizens now before the
public eye.
Commissioner Ooffey gaje the men
the assurance that he will render them
every assistance possible and expressed
his approval of the plan.
The delegation of citizens was headed
by some of the most prominent busi
ness men In the city who called, upon
Commissioner Coffey with intentions of
getting at the bottom of the conditions
In the north end and other sections of
the city where vice is alleged to be
flourishing.
The testimony of witnesses called in
the hearing of a newspaper reporter and
a county detective, In which It is al
leged that a Jackpot was raised by var
ious owners with which to ouy immuni
ty from publicity, is said to have
stirred the citizens to action: It is also
believed that the difficulty of ridding
the police department of undesirables
by reason of stringent rules in the civil
service system is a factor in the actiom
in ken nv in citizens. M
Many have expressed their confidence
In Mayor Rushlight and it is said that
the association will lend him aid in
