Death OF Prof. IL. S. GoIdev

Prof. Henry S. Goldey, founder OF
Goldey College and one of the best
known residents of Wilmington, died
On Saturday night at the residence Of
his brother William A.. Goldey at Ger
mantown, Pa, where he had been under
the care of a specialist for several weeks,
death resulting from a general breakdown.
ii. S. Goldey was boFn in PHILADELPHIA
60 years ago. He was graduated from the
Millersville State Normal School, from
Shoemaker School Of Elocution and Ora
tory and the Bryant & Stratton Business
College in Philadelphia. He taught school
III York and Lancaster counties, Pa,
and for several years taught at the Newark
Academy. From 1884 to 1886 he managed
the Bryant & Stratton Business College
in Philadelphia.
On September LIST, 1886, he established
Goldey College in Wilmington which was
incorporated in 1895 by a special act of
the Legislature.
In 1898 Prof. Goldey's health began
to fail and gradually he began his with
drawal from the management of the col
lege. In 1909 he practicallydisposed OF
ali OF the stock he owned in the insti-
tuition. His death will cause no change
in the management of the college, as in
l909 the faculty was recognized with
the admission OF w. E. Douglas, j. E
Fuller and j. F. Phillips as stockholders.
These men have been with the institu.
ton for about II years and have and will
continue the policy along the lines laid
down by the founder. Ever since it wa:
founded the college has been considered
among the foremost business colleges Of
the country.
AS All educator Prof. Goldey was very
successful, and GoIdey College attests tc
that fact. The local business school i.
well and favorably known not only thru
out this country, but in South America
Cuba and other countries.
Mr.. Goldey had been superintendent
OF Grace NJ. E. Sunday school for about
two years, after Mr.. and Mrs. Goldey
returned from a trip TO the Holy Land
where they spent several months. Mr.
Goldey WAS a trustee Of Grace Churcl
and one of its most prominent members
The deceased was one OF the foremosr
men in church work in that city, and wa.
interested i'll all departments. His active
work was in connection with the Men anC
Religion Forward Movement, in which
movement he was deeply interested, ant
spent a great deal Of his time to further
ing the movement here.
The funeral service took place in Grace
M. +. Church, Wilmington, on Tuesday
Burial was i'll Mt. Mariah cemetery, Phil
adelphia. He is survived by a widow
who was katherine Wright, of Newark
Delaware.

Notwithstanding the consumption of
intoxicating liquors decreased greatly
last year The cause Of prohibition is ad-
vancng. The Pennsylvania and Read
ing Railroad Companies have quit SELL
Ing liquors in their dining cars east of
PILtsbUg. Since d RAILROAD company
requires all their employees to be
temperance men as a protection to
their interest as public carriers, it is a
consistent move TO quit the sale of in
~toXicants i'll Their dining cars. The
latest victory fer the anti-saloon league
is i'll the U. 5. Senate. Tie judiciary
committee has decided 10 report favor
ably the bill giving to ''dry'' States

Bryan
From the Dover Delawarean.

From the Dover Delawarean.
In our judgment it IS simply impos-
sible to estimate the debt OF gratitude
which the Democratic party and the
country owe to William j. Bryan for
lis wonderful work at the Baltimore
convention. In the performance OF
public and party duty, as he saw it, he
was willing TO risk and suffer personal
humiliation, to be misunderstood and
mlsrepresented, " lose friend and bear
reproach. Other men did excellent
MorK, and had an Important part III
bringing about the splendid result at
the convention, but it seems only just
TO say that except for the work of MIR.
Bryan the result would probably have
been quite different and that the party
and country are, i'll large measure, III
debted TO him for the ticket, the plat
form, The opportunity and the averled
danger. We say ''averted danger"
for 1t is impossible to tell what would
have been Tie result If the Democratic
party lad Numbered and had failed "
meet the popular demand.

Democrat, a great American.
