FRIDAY EVENING CLUB PLANS
season OF 1910 1911 VIII INCLUDE
Several Fine Numbers.


The executive committee of the
Friday Evening club announce that
plans have been made for part OF
this season. 1t is not deemed advis-
able by the committee to fill up all
dates at this time, as there are con-
suantly arising subjects Of public in
terest which the members Of the club
desire to hear discussed; for example,
last year. the club was very fortunate
in securing A. Radcliff Dugmore i'm
mediately after his return from photo
graphing the wild animals of Africa.
Several dates, however, have been
filled.
The club has secured for the first
meeting on October 2lst, THE Adele
Margulies trio" The trio is composed
Of Adele Margnlies, pianist, Leopold
Lichtenberg ,yjolinist, and Leo Schulz,
cello. They are highly commended
by the press OF New York, Boston,
Philadelphia and elsewhere. and
the club may look forward to aneven-
ing Of pleasure with them. The club
has also secured for this evening vo-
calist, Miss Laura Combs, of New
York city.
On November 18th, Judge Ben B.
Lindsey, Of Denver, Colorado, will ad-
dress the meeting. Judge Lindsey
has come into national prominence by
his work in the juvenile court of that
city. The executive committee have
made many efforts to get Judge Lind
sey before the club, but have been I'M
.successfuluntil thisyear, when George
2. Fiske, president of the club, sue
ceeded in getting his contract.
In connection with this visit of
Judge Lindsey it may be stated that
the money realized from his lecture is
used by him in furthering his juvenile
work. and not for his own personal
gain.
1t is the purpose Of the club for the
coming season to have more musical
numbers, instrumental and vocal In
carrying out this idea, the Margulies
trio is che Of a series of musical nights
which the executive committee hopes
to place before the club.
The dues of the club are $500 per
annum. This includes two tickets for
each meeting, there being eight dur
ing season.
The membership of the club is linn
tied to three hundred and fifty, and at
the present time there are a few va
caneies. Vacancies are filled in the
order of application. If more applica-
tions are received than there are va
cancies they are put upon waiting
list in the order in which they are re-
ceived 'and are given membership as
soon as vacancies occur
The secretary and treasurer of the
club is David r. Barkman, whose office
is in the Babbiut building, Morris
town, where applications for member
ship should be sent.

Members of Electricity Commit
tee Talk of Trafford for
Superintendent.

/, While the resignation or Alderman
II. Douglas Richardson from the Com
mittee on Electricity. and his an
nounced resignation from the Board
II of Aldermen, came somewhat as a sur
/ prise to members of the Council last
night, as it had not been expected that
lie would retire until about March ], It
/ seems to be practically agreed that his
successor will be s. r. Cowardn, OF
the Third Precinct of Marshall Ward
+, That precinct has now no reprcsen-
\ tation In the Council, and as Mr. Rich
/ ardson comes from the north section
OF Church HILL all that new part taken
in in the annexation OF 1906 and en-
| bracing a large population. Is clamor-
! ing for representation. II has not been
4 determined as yet whether tho ward

| C. Nielsen, of Fulton, and John +.
Grimes. of Church Hill, will caucus to-
| dag and present a nomination to the
| Board tonight to succeed Mr. Richard
son. and several other names have been
\ mentioned, but from those in the field
| Mr.. Cowardin Is certainly the strong
/ est candidate.
| Mr.. Richardson will be a candidate
! as soon as the year required by the
! state Constitution has elapsed, for the
I position of superintendent of the new
! IlIuultipdl CleClElc pldllt
He claims to have the votes already
pledged to elect him. Some of those
present last night construed Mr.. Traf-
ford's letter to the Electricity Com
| mittee, offering to take temporary
/ charge. as holding out the possibility
/ that the consulting engineer might
/ himself become a candidate for the
permanent position of superintendent,
Members of the committee said last
night that IL Mr.. Trafford should con-
sent to give up his general practice
and run for the position, he would
make a formidable candidate, even In
the face of the votes Mr.. Richardson
| has pledged before leaving the Board
of Aldermen.
! A member Of the committee said
that there was every prospect OF
close race continuing with stiff cam
| vassing throughout the year, and that
a dark horse might yet win the SUI
lperintendency. Notwithstanding the
personal popularity of Mr.. Richard
son among members of the Council.
Mr.. Traffords claim to the position,
! should he decide to run, will depend
largely on his ability TO prove the
I accuracy of his figures and estimates.
| He told the Board of Aldermen two
years ago that in addition to furnish
ling free power for pumping water the
iplant he had designed would furnieh
street lights at $40 per lamp per year,
as against the $3.50 paid to the Vir-
gina Railway and Power Company.
If he does that for the first year,
several Councilmen said last night that
| they would vote for him as superin-
| tendent without reservation.
