no small measure 10 bring about the economic
crisis that now prevails in Italy the prOtcctO-
rate of the latter over Abyssinia has been
broupht TO a close in a manner that is fully
in keeping with all the various humillating
circumstances which have ATTENDED her colonial
entervrise in Africa. In remarkable letter
which has recently been addressed 10 the pin
cipal Governments of Europe, King Mcn"ck Of
Abyssinia who describes himself as " the Lion,
ConUer0r Of the tribe OF judah, the Chosen
of the Saviour, and The King of Kings Of Eth
opia.v announces that he has abrogated the
treaty concluded five years ago between himself
and Italy. on the ground that his consent thereto
had been obtained by fraud, and that under
the pre- text Of friendship King 1lnmbcr's Gov
ernment had sought to obtain mastery and con-
trol Of the Empire which he had Inherited from
his forefaherS. At the same time, the dusky

Chamber of Deputies by members of the OPP

The annual convection Of the University
of the State will be held in Albany this week.
The convocaton is to be regarded as one OF
tho most interesting and practically uSeiul
educational bodies Of the country. Made mp
largely of representatives OF the colleges ana
academies of Ncw-YorlS, the papers which arc
read before it and the discussions which they
provoke are the outcome of the experience OF
trained educators. The mere theorists play
only small part in these gatherings. The
convection is essentially gathering OF car
nest, wel!-cquipped teachers lloSptablc TO
every new suggestion which has in it the prom
Use and potency of any sort OF educational re-
form, but possessing the tOuchsonc OF expert
ence. they are not readily deceived. Mindful
of the Injunction prove all things, hold fast
that which is good" their appreciation of the
good fruit of the tree of knowledge renders
them quick to discern the bad.
Among the themes which will be treated of
at the coming convention are: Educational
legislation" Education and the State"
"Woman's Higher Education" Grounds on
Which state Aid is Given to Academies,
High Schools and Libraries" Higher Edu-
cation in the State Constitutions" To What
Extent should Educational Institutions be En-
cmpt from Taxation 2" Relations of the state
to secondary Education" Coordination IN
Education for Men and Women The Study
Of English in Elementary and Secondary
Schools and in Colleges and universities"
These. it will be seen, are live topics Most
of them are Of general interest All of them
are worthy of the serious consideration OF
.F oJ Tho first ot
the themes mentioned, Educational LeglSla-
ton" is reminder of a long postponed duty
Of the highest importance which the Legs
laturc of New York ought 70 discharge with
out delay We refer 10 the duty Of cnactIns
n sensible, conservative compulsory education
law which-unlilic the existing onc-can be en-
forced. II would be well, il j. submitted, If
the University COnvOcatlOn should make an
emphatic dcivciancc on this subject. IL Is
disgrace 10 Ncw-York and a serious menace
of her future that thousands Of children arc
growing up within her borders in dense Igno-
Iancc-childrcn who never sec the inside Of
schoolhousc and receive no instruction al
home The annual reports Of the Supcrln-
tcndents Of Public instruction have for many
years directed the attention Of our lawmakers
to this state of things-a state which may
Justly be characterized as appalling. 1t is to
be assumed that most of those who are to at
tend the convocation are familiar with the at
tcmpts which have been made Of late years at
Albany to secure compulsory education. The
problem is to frame law which will cure the
evil in question without doing an injustice to
ANYBODY. II is not simple problem, but it
is nonsense to argue that it is beyond solution.
Cannot and will not the University Con-
vocation help to solve it?
