ADELPHI FUND COMPLETED
WOODRUFF RAISES S125Ooo IN THREE
WEEKS TO SECURE LIKE AMOUNT
FROM ROCKEFELLER

Lieutenant Governor Woodruff will sail for
Europe to-day with the satisfaction of knowing
that his efforts to raise $125O00 to secure the
conditional gift of John d. Rockefeller of S1I5,-
600 to Adelphi College have been crowned with
success. Mr.. Rockefeller's offer was made three
weeks ago. Last week Mr.. Woodruff made
final appeal that the full amount be subscribed
before his departure for Europe On Thursday
afternoon the subscription list showed that
$4,000 required. He met Anthony n.
Brady, of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company.
and explained To him the educational work that
was being done by the college and the necessity
OF raising the sum required to secure Mr.. Rookie
feller's gift.
Mr.. Brady said he believed in Brooklyn and
its interests said Mr.. Woodruff yesterday. and
he thought his associates in the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company would join him in completing
the fund. He called meeting of the directors
Of the company and invited TO be present
and explain the work institution doing.
After had finished my talk. the directors at
once made up a fund of $4,000 each giving
the same amount. and thus Adeph College is
provided with fund of S250,000 within three
weeks.
We entirely free from debt and.
sides, there are other contributions promised 10
US which can be placed to the credit of the
endowment fund which was started several
years ago, fund that is needed safeguard
in time of financial stringenCy With this new
fund there is no reason why Adelphi should not
take its place in line with the great colleges Of
the country.
When Mr.. Woodruff. who is president of the
board of trustees of Adelphi. conveyed the news
to his colleagues on the board there was gem
eral rejoicing. Mr.. Rockefeller, when he saw
the list of subscribers and the amounts given,
was delighted, and agreed to turn over to the
treasurer of the college sums of S25,UD as
rapidly as similar amounts were paid in by the
subscribers
