Mrs. Everett Colby, of Oldstead
Lodge, Llewellyn Park, Orange, one
of the best known women in New
Jersey society, is giving up the great
er part of her time to work for the
suffrage amendment. Mrs. Colby is
not alone in her work for suffrage,
but has persuaded many of her
friends to join her. They had form
ed a committee of one hundred for
this purpose.
Among the members secured for
the committee of one hundred there
are names prominent in social, dip
lomatic, business and financial cir
cles throughout the country, includ-
ing Mrs. Ogden Mills Reid, Mrs.
George w. Perkins, Mrs. Henry o.
Havemeyer, Mrs. George Goued,
Ex-Governor J. Franklin Fort,

with my home, my husband and

not need the ballot" said Mrs. Col
by when interviewed in her beautiful
home recently Scores of women
are working for the ballot who ap-
pear to have everything that life can
give them. but many feel it their
duty to be interested in public af-
fairs, while others, realizing the dis
advantages under which thousands
of women are earning their liveli-
hood today, earnestly believe the
working women should have say
in making the laws which govern the
hours and conditions of employment.
This is why women of the leisure
class are not only contributing in
money to the campaign, but are Civ
ing their time as we'll.
There are many thousands of
women employed in factories in New
Jersey, and over one-fourth of them
receive less than Sc a week. This
can scarcely be called living wage,
can it? In many states where wom-
an suffrage exists there are eight
hour laws. For years we have work
ed for an eight-hour law in New
Jersey and finally were able to re-
duce the outrageously long hours by
ten-hour law. Canneries, however,
are exempt.
81 believe suffrage will do much
for women of all classes. There are
many women who have little inter
est beyond those of bridge and the
matinee. They should be made to
feel that it is their duty to take part
in civic affairs. The pampered wom-
an of this country is an international

JUSTICE BERGEN TO DECIDE
ON MEMBERSHIP OF BOARD
specia! to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NE WS.
New Brunswick, Sept. 21.-The
question as to whether there should
be twelve or twenty-five members on
the Board of Public Works, such as
are in power in Newark and Eliza
beth, is now before Justice James J.
Bergen for settlement. Argument
to have the name of Thomas C. Hum
phries placed in the ballot for cleo
ton in Elizabeth, was heard this
morning. There was granted a rule
to show cause why the name should
not go on the ballot. This is re-
turnable before Justice Bergen at
Somerville at 10 o'clock Saturday
morning.
If the movers in the case are sue
cessful in getting Mr. Humphries'
name on the ballot, it is believed that
names of nine other candidates will
follow with little difficulty. The
name of Mr.. Humphrias is the thir-
teenth on the list of candidates.

Willie Beecher
Easily Defeats
Tommy Murphy

Tommy Murphy. who has been
fighting for over eleven years. has
probably fought his last battle In the
roped arena. Tommy met Willie
Beecher In y n-round contest at the
Long Acre A. c. last night, and his
showing was so poor that the latter
had no trouble winning. Murphy was
not the Murphy Of former days-if he
had been the result might have been
different.
Murphy was lucky to remain the
ten rounds. He did not possess his
old speed nor his punch. and haa II
not been for his ring generalship the
chances are that he would have gone
down for the count.
In one round only did Murphy show
n Hash of his old form. That was IN
the third round. wnen he swapped
punches at close quarters to such 4
good advantage that he had the better
of that session.
This rally must have taken all of
Murphy's strength, as after that he
tired as the result of Beecher's heavy
wallops to tho stomach and kidneys.
In the last three rounds he held con-
tinually in the chnches.
