The East Side Improvement association has

organizations will meet at the First COngre-

mixed bouts

Moth is in fine form. In fact he is always
in prime condition. He has not trained to
any great extent, because experience has
taught him that he cannot afford 10 lose too
much flesh. Mclaughlin is not only a very
strong man. but he is at least thirty pounds
heavier than his opponent, and in order 10
throw him Moth will require all his re-
serve strength. Moth feels absolutely conf
dent of winning the match. He has been
practicing the new style of wrestling catch
as-catch-can in jackets, and says he will
surprise even his friends and admirers. He
is to win fall Grace Roman inside of two
hours, or lose for friend wager of $500,
provided Mclaughlin covers the money
which is posted. He failed to win the first
bout in the last match in that time, but is
nothing daunted for all that.
Col. McLaughlin's confidence and ''cour-
age has been screwed up to the sticking
point" He advised all his friends TO bet
on him, and they needed his advice, judg-
ing from the large sums of money that ha, e
been placed. At the last match it is esti-
mated that So 900 were wagered, but this
time it is thought the sum will be doubled.
Mclaughlin has been training at the Mime
apolis gymnasium, and appears in better
condition than on the last occasion. His
weight, however, is about the same.

THE WATER BOARD.
Water for NicOllet Island--Pipe Ar
riving--Bids Opened.

At last nights meeting of the water
board the superintendent was authorized
to buy the necessary amount of pig lead for
calking the mains to be laid. Commissioner
Farnham moved that the superintendent be
Instructed to advertise for proposals for
laying the mains. The engineer explained
that specifications had not been prepared,
and in order to bid intelligently levels have
to be made so as to determine what cuts
will have TO be made. Finally
the motion was laid on the table
until next meeting. The superintendent
was then authorized to advertise for pro-
posals for furnishing corporation cocks for
the year 1886.
BLOCKING UP RESIDENCES.
Commissioner Andrews called attention
to the fact that the contractors were distrib-
uting pipe in front of residences, whereas
the contract specifies that proper openings
shall be left in front of private residences.
The superintendent volunteered to attend
TO the matter.

water tax was referred to the committee on
claims and accounts.

ADVANCE THE MONEY,
with the understanding that when the as
sessment is made the money so advanced
will be applicable on the assessment The
proposition was acceptable to Mr.. Dexter.

THE WORKINGMEN.
A Meeting in the seventh Ward Z
Consider the Political Situation.

A Meeting in the seventh Ward to
Consider the Political Situation.
The workingmen's meeting, held last
evening at Libby's hall, corner of Lake
street and Minnehaha avenue, was attended
by about fifty persons. A. b. Cosner pre-
sided and G. l.. Batchelder offieiated as
secretary. 1t was understood that no per-
Sonalities were to be INDUCED, so the meet
ing by reason of the absence of this enliv-
ening element, was an unusually undemOn-
strative one for the Seventh ward. Capt
John Wright, president OF the Bricklayer's
union, who, by the way. is mentioned as a
probable candidate if an independent candi-
date is put in the field, was the principal
speaker of the evening and addressed the
meeting for about three-quarters of an
hour. The tenor of his remarks was to the
effect that the working men have
very little to expect from either
of the old political parties.
In England only thirty workingmen have
ever held seats in parliament. In the east
ern portion of the United States the labor
ing men are simply tenants with no power
to become anything but mere drudges.
Here in the new Northwest the working
man has an opportunity of obtaining home
and position in society. Let them take
time by the forelock and make some effort
to obtain their rights. AS long as a work
ingman has sufficient intellect and a good
character should he be excluded from the
municipal state or national councils of the
government.
DR.. E. T. Gibson also spoke briefly. He
said that although he is professional man
that his sympathies are in entire harmony
with efforts made tC improve the condition

with the entire community. He knew that
too little attention had been paid to the
needs of the workingmen, but was person
ally doing what he could as member o.
the city council to aid them, and felt tina
others were similarly disposed.
Aid Phelps. Republican, also spoke t.
about the same effect. A few brief re
marks from several others closed the meet
ing which cannot be said to have been yer,
enthusiastic, but was entirely harmonious

ABOUT THE CITY.

A story has been going the rounds Of
Irish circles in the city prejudicial TO At
tOrney j. r. Corrigan. The substance Of
il is that, on the occasion of a visit to the
GLOBE Office. he had explicitly denied that
he was an Irishman. There is absolutely
nothing in the story. The writer was pres
ent at the time indicated, and Mr.. COrrigan
said nothing whatever to warrant IT, On
the other hand, in the course OF the con-
versatiOn, he mentioned his Irish origin as
a matter of honor and satisfaction. Either
malice or an ill-advised spirit Of mischief
dictated the story current.

Fire and Water.

At 1870 last night an alarm from box 81
called the fire department to 1,204 Western
avenue. where a fire had broken out in a
two-story frame building occupied by Sui
Iivan & EaSelstyn, dealers in tea and
canned goods. The building Is a rattle
trap and the work of the department in
squelching the flames reflects credit upon
it. The proprietors of the store claim that
they lost $500 from fire and water, covered
by insurance, but it is probable that the loss
is less. The building. owned by Mr..
Vrooman of Wayzatta. was damaged 500.
The origin is supposed to be incendiarism.
