INVESTIGATE WRECK Of
THE STEAMER VALENCIA
LIFE PRESERVERS WEIGHED so TO Is POUNDS
Captain Thought His Ship Was Off Umatia
Reef According to Testimony of Second
Mate Peterson.

VICTORIA, Jan. 29.-Advices
from the scene of the Valencia wreck
state that wreckage in large quanti-
ties is coming ashore and fears are
entertained that the Indians may
loot it. Instructions have been sent
to all lightkeepers to secure every
thing of value and hold it, but de-
stroy all liquor for fear the Indians
might get it.
The list of the Valencia dead re-
covered now totals 81. Three more
bodies were found this morning.
The tug Lorne left this afternoon
with a party of searchers, undertake
ers and carpenter to make collins.
Advices from the land party which
saw the final destruction of the Va
lencia and who tried to make fast
the line shot to the shore, states If
those on the Valencia had bent a
small line onto the spun rope shot
ashore instead of the hawser, there
would have been a good chance of
saving some of those on board. AS
it was, when Lineman Logan started
to haul in the spun rope, it was un-
able to stand the strain of the big
hawser and parted.

SCHOOL TEACHERS PAID
 FIRST MONTHS SALARY
obstructive Lecture Delivered Upon Various Systems of Moral Train
 ing In Schools.

The monthly meeting of public school teachers was held in the lecture room of the High school yesterday morning, An address was delivered by Superin- tendent Phillips on the subject of Democracy In School Government"
 The lecture was based upon the three fundamental principles recentely stated by Professor Elliott of Harvard.
 The first principle emphasizes the fact that the chief purpose of the school is the developemnt in the child of the capacity for self-goyernment. The second principle requires that the school appeal to those motives of con- duct which shall be operative through life. Fear and personal love may be temporary incentives to moral conduct, but neither Is adequate as a motive. The third principle is that enunciated by Froebel, which insists upon the productive activity of the child as an essential means of moral de elopment.
 Superintendent Phillips described at length the various forms of the appli- cation of these principles now in use in the schools of the United States. Among these are the "George Repub- 11c." an institution In which many of 'the most incorrigible youths from the slums of New York have been most Successfully trained in the art of self government. Also the School City" plan, devised by Wilson R. Gill and used extensively in the schools in this country By invitation of General Wood, MT. Gill visited Cuba and suo- cessfully established this system in the public schools of Havana
 Another plan widely known to the Ray" system of school government in which the pupils themselves take charge of the school discipline, there by enabling the teachers to devote en- tire time to institution.
