SANTO DOMINGO LABOR
Striking Longshoremen Working I'm
der Thirty Days Truce.

Special Correspondence of The Star
SAN JUAN, p. R., August o.
Although under a thirty days truce the
striking longshoremen are again working at
their old wages, having won no concessions
from the New York and Porto Rico Steam
ship Company, there is a very general ru-
MOI that the dove of peace now lowering
over San Juan is in a melting condition.
The report is current that a big Labor
day demonstration will be followed by
general strike all over Porto Rico on Sep
TENDER 8. That the policy of such a move
ment has been discussed at several recent
secret labor meetings is certain. OF course
much annoyance would for a time result
from such a strike, but ultimately it would
set back the cause of organized labor in
tho island for a long time.
The government is prepared to cope with
any situation which may arise and Gov
erEor Winthrops recent declarat ton that
hereafter in event of riot the police will be
ordered to shoot to kill is still having
sa]utary effect upon some turbulent lead
ers. The steamship piers are now clear Of

To educate missionaries to carry these
doctrines into the world and to extend the
knowledge of theosophy, Madame TingIey
has organized what she considers an ideal
educational system. and she hopes it will
sometime eliminate in a university founded
on the same lines and established at the
headquarters of the Universal Brotherhood.
She has under her care about 200, children,
ranging from infants 10 the ages of eight
cen and twenty years. They consist "a Of
the children of families who live upon the
grounds; CD the children of believers else
where; go the children of non-believers
elsewhere, who are required to pay from
S4OO to STo0 year for tuition: and a. waits
and strays whom Madame Tingley has
picked up in different parts of the world.

Training of the Children.

We had an exhibition of the talents, and
training of the children, and 1t was most
remarkable one from every point of view
The self-possession, the mental activity
ply steal perfection, the reasoning powers
the fearlessness and the grace of the chill
dren is astonishing; but IT was all unnat-
ural. Little tots four and five years old
went through exercises that would have
taxed the mental ability of ordinary high
school students, and 1t was actually pain
full to hear the big words roll out of their
mouths. but they were earnest and eager
to display their talents, and seemed to
show an affectionate interest in each other
that is seldom seen, even in our home cir
cles. Mrs. Tingley explained this by say
ing that the Raja Yoga system of educa-
ton Is based upon the doctrine of reincar-
nation. Each child is treated on the theory
that It's soul has had previous existence
in the body of another person and has re-
ceived certain amount OF intellectual
training. While the experience of teachers In
ordinary schools would destroy belief in
the doctrine of transmigration, Mrs. Tingley
insists that it is demonstrated by every
child.
Another explanation for the unnatural
proficiency of the children Is that study is
never task. 1t is mixed with music and
aniusements; with games, physical exer-
cises, and all kinds OF sports, so that the
child cannot distinguish between it's lessons
and its play. Mrs. Tfngley denies utterly
the doctrine of total depravty, and while
she admits the existence of perversity and
other vicious traits of character she in
sists that they are not natural but ac-
quired. and may be eradicated from any hui
man soul by kindly treatment and by APP
pealing to the better nature of child. She
has had some very hard cases to deal with
among the waits and strays that she has
picked up in New York Chicago and San
Francisco But she declares that there is
no human soul so depraved that she cannot
redeem IT.: and none so wild that she cam
no; tame II in a few months.
She told me that this school Is the devel
opment of ideas formed in her own school
days. When she was a child she discovered
the defects of our common school system
and resolved some day to organize a school
that would be free from them. The Raja
Vega system is the result. and she defines

Cargo Damaged 10y Fire.
While the steamer Wildenfels,
owned by the Hansa line of Bremen,
Germany, was discharging part of
her cargo. valued at 81, 10000 at
shed No. 3 of the Mystic docks,
Charlestown, Mass, Wednesday after
noon, fire broke out in No. 2 hold,
and before the firemen and apparatus
summoned by two alarms from box
429 had succeeded, after a fight OF
more than three hours, in putting out
the blaze, very heavy damage had
been done. The cargo aboard ship
was very valuable, and estimates on
the loss vary from $25, 900 to 5000, 900.
