Or late years, women have learned
aud appropriated to themselves, to more
or less extent, many Of the occupations
once thought to be the exclusive prop
erty Of men, Chief among these is the
business of telegraphy, That this is
so, perhaps, is owing TO the establish
ment of the free school of telegraphy
at Cooper's institute, New Y rk, found,
ed and sustained by Peter Cooper.
Forty pupils are received at one time
aud no fees whatever are charged for
instruction. 1t has been found that
women are particularly apt at learning
the business, graduating in from three
to seven months. 1t is estimated that
there is at present forty young women
employed in the Offices Of the Western
Union telegraph company, graduates of
the Cooper institute school.
