[The Alpha Club of Newark] has a membership of nearly two hundred, including among its members four members of the Common Council, a member of the Legislature, several county and city officials, and many of the best and wealthiest citizens of Newark. The club is entirely free from debt, has a handsome balance it its treasury, and money proffered by its members and friends sufficient to rent and inclose a ground and pay all necessary and legitimate improvements and expenses, but not one cent for players. It has eight or ten first-class amateur players and the services of many more offered gratuitously.
