CITY GLOBULES.

CITY GLOBULES.
The committee on streets of the city
council attempted to hold a meeting last
evening, but failed wholly, the ''Chimes of
Normandy proving more attractive than
business.
The memorial services for the late John
E. Miller will be held at Jackson street NJ.
E. church, Ninth and Jackson streets, Sun
day tomorrow afternoon at $3.50, under
the auspices of the Church Sunday school
and the Y. NJ. G. A., jointly.
This evening Rev. Father Nugent, the
celebrated Catholic temperance worker. of
Liverpool, England, under the auspices of

neapolis, will deliver a temperance lecture
at Market hall, commencing at o'clock.
The roof Of the arthur House," located
on Mississippi street, above Grove, was
burned off about O'Clock yesterday morn
ing. The damage was about $500 or $500.
The fire took" in the kitchen, but no one
knows how.
The first delicacy of the season was the
Montana Calls head and feet that attract
ed so much attention at j. T. Mcintosh &
Cos Robert street market, and was cap
tured by Geo. II. Allen, proprietor of the
union depot dining hall. It will no doubt
be served in good style.
The board of public works yesterday
considered the matter of making an assess
ment for paving Seventh street, from
Jackson to Broadway, for confirming the
assessment for grading De Soto street, for
n,,f cfr for of q
sewer on Seventh street, from Robert to
Jackson, and for filling Torrent street
pond.

Ralston j. Marcoe, of this city, and Or
vile Rinehart and A. Albert Reid, of Min
neapolis, three of the young men who
faced the examining committee of the
supreme court yesterday morning, passed
a most creditable examination, and were
admitted to- practice. Their three asso-
ciates less fortunate, should not be dis
couraged thereat, but try again. ''Try,
try again." is good motto.
The two Midway Park trotting stations,
Blackwood Jr., and Spottswood. father and
son, arrived back yesterday from the Chi
cago. Illinois Ltate fair at. Peoria, and st.
Louis fair, where each carried off num-
Der of first premiums, and two or three
seconds. Both horses returned in fine con-
dition and spirits, and decked out as they
were with blue and red ribbons, represent
ing the premiums won, attracted mucl. at
tention as they were driven through the
'Ity on the way out to Midway.
Ayoung man, by the name of Will Davis,
Il the employ of Mr.. Mcdonald, the
grocer, in West st. Paul,wh1l fooling with
revolver, last evening, at the residence OF
his employer. sent a bullet into his head, be
tween the eyes, just over the top of his
nose. DR.. Edgar Snyder was sent for, but
he did not think it advisable to probe for
the bullet. The young man at last accounts
was perfectly conscious, and DR.. Snyder
says the wound is not necessarily fatal.
Young Davis is about 81 years of age, and
if his wound does not prove fatal the les
son may be of use to him in after life to
let firearms alone.
Secretary Young of the state board of i'm
migration in looking over the state publ
cation by the Michigan board for 1880. en-
titled michigan and its Resources, struck
upon the item eulogistic of the health of
the state, wherein the death rate was given
as ia to every 1000 of popula-
ton. Naturally he at once turned to the
report of Minnesota for the same year.
and by quick and easy computation, he
was gratifed to find that the death rate for
this state, upon the same basis of one
thousand, was only 1856. a difference in
favor of Minnesota of 81 per cent.
ely" Fisher Corraled.
c. D. Fisher, the Fargo blood, who, after
squandering his money in riotous living
among the fast ''uns'' of st. Paul, under
took to make raise by means of bogus
checks, was produced before hizzoner,
Judge Burr, yesterday morning, and held
to the grand jury, and in default of $1,000
bail was committed to the county Jail. Had
Fisher escaped this very natural result of
his st. Paul spree, and his inherent cussed-
ness, it would only have been to jump
from the frying pan into the fire, as the
morning train from Fargo brought man
named Lacy, who was victimlzed by Fisher
by the same means, a bogus check, some
three weeks ago, to the tune of 5000, and
had he. Fisher, in any way escaped being
held for trial upon account of his ST. Paul
misdeeds, Lacy would have secured his
arrest upon the 5000 deal. AS it is, Lacy
will undoubtedly have to enter the 5000 on
the loss side of his ledger, while Ramsey
county and the state of Minnesota will
