ENGLAND GIRDLING THE GLOBE.

That quiet little meeting at the Colonial Office
1t marked the beginning OF another mighty
stride IN the progress toward Imperial Fedora
ton, and, indeed, toward something much like
recreation OF the Empire 1t was the opening
Of a series Of strictly private and strictly prac
teal and busincsslike conferences for the com
pleton of some of those great projects Of colo
NAL and imperial import which were preached
In 1887, approved and ratified in 1894. and en-
tered upon with characteristic earncstncss and
vgOr by Mr.. Chamberlain soon IA he be
came the head Of the Colonial Office These
projects directly concern the British Empire in
all its parts, but they will be found not devoid
of interest to all the world.
The first work on hand, and that to which
this opening meeting was devoted, is the lay
ing Of telegraphic cable across the Pacific
Ocean from the western shore Of the Dominion
of Canada to the British colonies Of the South
Pacific That, when effected, will for the first
time complete the electric circuit of the world,
which will in itself be great thing. Great

thereafter, be the case-every land sta

COOPER TNION'S POSSIBLE FUTURE.

A suggestion Of more than ordinary interest
TO the people Of New York was made i'll the re-
cent annual report of Mr. Abram :. Hewitt rs
secretary of the Board OF Trustees of the
Cooper Union--Or, 10 use its complete name. the
Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science
and Art II appears that only about half
of the applicants can be admitted 10 the night
classes which the Union carries Oh. For the
entire night school there were last year BAG
applications, and ,SOf Of the applicants became
regular members. Sill more Impressive Is The
statement that ut the beginning Of one term
there were 100 names entered for algebra and
geometry in the first years course, while there
was room for only 10 No other institution
In the city provides the technical instruction
given by the Cooper Union at night. and yet,
Mr.. Hewitt afirms there Is no field in which
popular education Is so necessary and 50 fruit
"fu Of beneficial results" The Union could
readily enlarge It's classes SO as 10 meet the
demand II means were supplied for employing
teachers and defraying the incidental expenses
that the enlargement would involve. But It's
existing resources are all employed In carrying
on the work now maintained, and 10 increase
1t IS out Of the question. In truth. the balance
sheet for last year shows n deficit Of nearly
$1,000, which had TO be made good from the
endowment fund The total endowment of the
institution is the modest sum Of Sl3G 900 and
no further transfers can BE- made from 1t to
the expense account
While repeating the appeal which they have
made heretofore for additional help I'm carrying
on their most useful work the trustees through
Mr.. Hewitt propose that n much larger pro
vision for the work should be made In the near
future The report says that undoubtedly the
best solution Of the problem would he found
