BISHOP POTTER
Answers CALL
NOTED NEW YORK PRELATE
SUCCUMBS AFTER SEVERAL
WEEKS ILLNESS.

~Cooperstown, N. Y, July 22.-Henry
Goldman Potter, seventh Protestant
Episcopal bishop Of the diocese of
New York, died here last night after
an illness Of several weeks. He was
unconscious all day, and the end,
which came at S:35 o'clock, was
peaceful.

lam Hyde, two other daughters, who

1ism in the right leg, following liver
and stomach trouble. No arrange.
ments for the funeral have been made,

Sketch Of Bishops Career.
Henry Goldman Potter was born in
Schenectady, N. Y, May 25, 1885. He
was a o of Alonzo Potter, once
bishop of Pennsylvania, and a grand
son of DR.. Mott, president of Unior
college. His family removed to Phila

tied inclination for the church ant
expressed a desire to follow in hi
fathers footsteps. He had a course
of classical education under the su
pervision of his father and Prof.
E. Hare, D. D., and then entered tn
Theological Seminary of Virginia. HI
graduated in 1857 and received dea
cons orders at the hands Of his fathe

who might care for soft drinks. M
liquor was sold to drunkards. The
drinks were pure and sold at a low
price.
Yet the project failed. And w. A.
skidmore, who bought the place, Civ.
ing as a reason for its failure, posted
epigrammatic placards on the walls.
Among them were:
Rum and religion won't mix any
more than oil and water.
Religion follows rum; it does not go
with it, hand in hand. A man thinks
Of religion the morning after.
Running a saloon by telling people
of the deadly effects of rum is like
telling a man to buy poison because

In May. 1859, he accepted a call to
ST. Johns church, Troy, N. Y, where
he remained seven years. During this
period he received a call from Christ
church, Cincinnati, and St. Paul's
church, Albany, and was also chosen
president of Kenyon college, Gambler,

Birth Of Subway Tavern.
One of the many innovations in.
spired or Endorsed by Bishop Potter,
ana Cu9 luUSJ SSuodeioldl OlC, was
his advocacy of the Subway tavern in
New York City at Mulberry and
Blocker streets.
The institution was designed as a
means of aiding the u of temper,
ance by building UP a system of good
saloons.
Earl Gray and his followers in Eng
land, it was held, had built up a cen
trail public house trust which aimed
to reduce the evils of intemperanct
by taking over all the public house
licenses, converting the dramshor
into an establishment as compatible
as possible with good morals.
In setting about the establishment
of the model saloon "a stock COMPANY
was formed with a capital stock O
$4,000.

his action in the matter he was bit
terly censored throughout the United
States. The opening was suspicious
but the saloon did not prosper am

Bishop Potter did not agree witt

methods easily enforced in a hamle
could be successfully applied in

In the face, and after much thought
and trouble attempted to apply his
remedy-the subway tavern.
In this place it was planned to op'
crate a model saloon that would check
rather than encourage the expendi
ture of money for intoxicants. There
were a regulation bar and tables, but
neither bartenders nor walters urged
patrons to buy. There was a free
lunch counter, but it was not a crime
to tax therefrom a sandwich with
out first buying a glass of beer.
