EDVARD BURGESS.

1t is a melancholy task to write of the death
of man who had so many claims as Mr.. Ed
ward Burgess upon the respect and admiration
of the public. High and unique as was his pro-
fessional place, it is still to be said of him that
he had only stepped across the threshold OF his
career as a naval designer. He was only forty
two years old. His ambition and his scientific
attmnmentS were the pledge OF an incompatible
fame. Incompatible, indeed, it is even now,
but he had worked within narrow limits, and
his successes, though they gratfied National
pride and lifted certain form of maritime archi-
lecture to a plane it had never reached before,
were not in the largest sense useful. lie was
taken away az the very moment when he was
beginning to employ his genius in the service
of commerce rather than sport.
Thoroughly educated gentle, refined and
sensitive, Mr.. Burgess possessed a nature almost
severely practical. lie was an example Of a
class of Americans which is happily growing
numerous. AS naturalist and mathematician
he had already become distinguished before his
skill in bodybuilding, first developed in the con
stluction of wonderful catboat for his own
use, had suggested the labors that established
his reputation. knowledge of every sort was
to him means to an end, and the end was the
thing upon which his eyes were always fixed.
Theory led directly to experiment experiment
to a practical result and no result. however
successful, was so satisfactory in his own eStima-
ton as to do away with the desire for improve
ment. The designer of a vessel which had out
stripped every other of her class and had le-
mOnstrated her title 70 pre-eminent rank might
reasonably have thought himself emitted to rest
content with that achievement at least unit
somebody else had made greater one But

ually trumphed over himself lie was his only
rival, and every new effort gave him new

COORDINATE EDUCATIONAL YORK.

Notable differences of opinion were developed
in the discussion at the University Convection
concerning the best way of cO-Ordinatng edu-
cational institutions from the high school TO the
university Some experienced educators, in
deed. expressed doubt whether the question was
4 practical one at all. 1t certainly does seem
difficult to reach. The desirability OF rendering
the preparatory schools more efficient cannot be
denied, but as Dean Schurman sensibly pointed
out these schools exist for the people and not
for the colleges. How much they exist for the
people and how little for the colleges is easy
TO imagine when the number of young men is
considered whose final diplomas are received
from the public high school or the private or
the sectarian academy We do not know that
a count Of these is had from year to year, but
they must be multitude in comparison with
whom the combined freshmen classes of all our
colleges are feeble body.
Whether the time occupied in pursuit of edu-
cation from the entry into primary school to
the reception of university degree is more than
it ought to be in the interest of thorough work
is question quite apart from that which con-
Germs the average American boy. lie knows, OF
his father knows for him, that it is more than
after they had passed the academical stage are
web along in their business career by the time
the college boy is ready TO start, and then he
finds himself too old and with ideas too grand
to begin where they began or to accept the
compensation they were content TO start upon
while at the same time he realizes his inability
to get along without the experiences they have
been through. Educators are on the right track
when they look for a way of shortening the
time within which young man may win that
degree which will imply substantial education
Harvards plan of making the whole reduction
in the college term does not satisfy many ex-
perienced Teachers nor is it sufficient to solve
the problem. According to the last annual re-
port of Harvard College the average age Of its
graduates for the last ten years has been TWEEN.

At the same time it is proper to say that our
