they will prepare floats for the pa

also fit up floats. All of the boys
are taking a deep interest in the
preliminary preparations, and meet
ings are we'll attended.
The marshals of the various organ
izations will meet tonight at Assem-
bly, hall with the general Labor day
committee, for the purpose of finally
agreeing on the numerous details
connected with such an elaborate
affair
The programme is practically COM
pleted. 1t embraces, besides the pa
rade, a series of twenty popular
games, for which sixty good prizes
are offered. From the capitol the
line of march will be on Exchange
to Third, to Broadway, to Sixth, to
Robert, to Eighth, to Cedar, to Third,
to Assembly hall, and disband. The
games will begin at Smelling park
Immediately after dinner, and at 8
o'clock Master of Ceremonies Frank
lin will take possession of the speak
ers' stand. John Ryder will deliver
the address.
1t is announced that the BARRIERS
union will assemble on Labor day at
9 a. m. on the Fifth street side of
the court house.
At the park everything is being put
in much better shape than has ever
been the case before. Numerous
additional seats are being built, and
the grounds will be sprinkled. This
latter announcement will be well
come news to everybody.
IRON MOULDERS' UNIONS UNITE.
International President Fox, of the
iron moulders' union, informed a
Glob e reporter last night that here
after there will be a solid organiZa-
ton of the craft in st. Paul,
with the chances very largely in IA
vor of a spread of the good work.
President Fox came to the city to
perfect the details of the amalgama-
ton of the two unions that have here
tofore been in the field-iron mould
ers and machinery moulders. He was,
In common with the men, highly elated
with the success achieved. A few
days will be necessary to perfect the
union of the forces, and the iron
moulders will have a strong, solid
organization. There was a very large
gathering of moulders at last nights
meeting and the president was given
a most cordial reception. His words
were listened to with close attention
and frequent applause greeted his
eloquent plea for the new movement
that promises so much for the good
of the craft at large.
