a bout between Packey Mcfarland
and either champion AID wolgast or
Matt Wells is attracting international
attention. The purse hung up is $751;
coo. While Mcfarland is featured as
the central figure in the fight his OPP
ponents will undoubtedly demand a
big end of the purse. In case AID
Wolgast is drawn into the fray he will
want at least $4,000 and probably it
will be nearly $4,000. Wells consld-
ers himself also a drawing card and

AFTER 45 YEARS.
Frank E. Hsrrick Resigns at Ameri'
 can Thread Company's Plant.

Frank E. Herrick of 154 Windham road ,overseer of the dresser tenders and spoolers at the plant of the Amer ican Thread company in this city, on Saturday noon left the plant for good after a service of many years His resignation went into effect at noon Saturday, and it was only then that those with whom he had been associ- ated learned that he was to retire from active work
 When MT. Herrick started to work at the plant there was only a small mill along the river bank just west of what is now the spool shop. It was in August, 1857, that Mir. Herrick started to work at the plant and his first wages were S3.50 a week. He started to learn the dresser tenders work, and later was a dresser tender with Eugene s. Boss, agent of the plant now.
 When No. 1 mill was built he went to that mill as a dresser tender, and when No. ? was built he went there as overseer of the dresser tenders. Later he was given charge of the spOolers in connection with the dresser tenders In his flfty-five years of serv- ice at the plant MT. Herrick has had charge of rooms in every mill ex- cept what is known as the pulp shop. When No. was built he went there and when No. was built part of his departments went to that mill. He has been an overseer at the plant for over 4 years.
 Mir. Herrick is 72 years old and in excellent health. His place as over seer of the dresser tenders will be taken by his son, Frank E. Herrick, Jr, who has been employed in that department for many years. Edgar Jacobs is to have, charge of the spool CTS. He has been connected with that department a number of years.

TEN PER CENT.
 INCREASE GRANTED
General Boss Promises Flat Rate to Workers in No. 2 and No. 4 Mills Operatives Decide to Organize.

The committee from the strikers went down to the mills late Monday afternoon to get their answer from Gen Eugene s. Boss, relative to the demand for a flat increase of ten per cent.
 After being closeted with the agent and discussing the situation for nearly an hour, General Boss, learning just what the committee wanted for the strikers, agreed to give all those who went out on strike from No. and No, 4 mills, or those employed in the man. ufacturing department of the company a flat increase of ten per cent. weekly. The committee thanked the general and walked out The good news began to leak out and a cheer was raised from a small group of the strikers and the news spread through the city like Wildfire.
 At seven o'clock the strikers began to assemble in A. B. $. hall and when the meeting was called to order 8 lit- tie before 8 o'clock there was not a seat to be had in the hall and there were hundreds standing and several hundreds more who could not gain admission.
 The announcement of the chairman that General Boss had been empow- cred by the mill owners to grant the strikers the flat increase of ten per cent. in wages to all those employed in No. and No. mills of the plant or those employed in what is known as the manufacturing department was met with applause
 The chairman then introduced John Smith, the Polish speaker and organ izer for the l. w. W. from Lawrence, who gave a stirring address on the matter of organization and the neces- sity for it. He was followed by an able French speaker who alluded to John Golden and his organization and styled them strike breakers and said that he did not approve of the methods used by him and the organization that he represented He told of being in a strike in Skowhegan, Me, and was on the point of winning when John Golden and his gang came along, the speaker said, and the strike was lost by his interference and the conditions are just as bad now as before. The next speaker. Syrian, urged all to organize and gave a number of his experiences. The next speaker was an Italian and he talked for a while.
 It was announced that the strikers would assemble again Wednesday eve ming for the purpose of formally or ganizlng under the banner of the In- dustrial Workers of the World, when Miss Elizabeth q. Flynn will again be present and address the industrial workers. The assemblage rendered Mayor Daniel P Dunn hearty vote of thanks for paying the rent of A. B. s. hall in order that the mass meeting might be possible A vote of thanks was also passed, thanking the board of selectmen for their kindness in allowing the erstwhile strikers the use of the town hall for their meet ings of. Saturday and Sunday The employees of No. and No 4 mills will all be at work this (Tuesday) morning.
