Mat Giest and John McGrath laid a foundation for a fight at Seven corners last night and were scooped by Officer Getchell.

Martin Johnson, who got into the cooler Saturday night and bailed himself out, got hilarious again last night and was pulled.

Bill Montrauer, a Sixth ward citizen, went to a wedding last night and filled up with matrimonial exuberance and was taken in by Officer Feise.

Tuesday evening, in the Central Presbyterian church, a talk on matters relating to the work among Indians will be given by one of that race.

When the patrol wagon was going to the Gypsy camp yesterday morning the team of John P. Thill became frightened and threw his son out, it is rumored, badly injuring him.

George W. Amos, a cigarmaker working for George Moeller & Co., and living at No. 105 Granite street, stepped off a street car at Seven corners last night and broke his ankle. Dr. Hand treated the man and he was taken to his residence in a carriage.

The young men's meeting yesterday afternoon was led by Dr. Woods, pastor of Woodland Park Baptist church. The attendance was large. Those present were very much interested and remained to an after meeting.

It was reported yesterday that William Collins, who was brought up on the steamer Mary Morton from Dubuque, where he had his skull crushed in a fight, and was placed in St. Joseph's Marine hospital, could not live through the night.

Albert Watzski, who lives on the upper levee, chased Fred Enger up and down the levee with a smooth-bore rifle last Saturday night, threatening to tap him with a ball and let some of the beer out of him, but the whole crowd was corraled before any damage was done.

Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock a meeting was held by the Socialistic labor party section of St. Paul, at Union Hall. Mr. Haase, delegate to the congress of the party, made his report and Mr. Gaeffre spoke on the eight-hour movement. The hall was filled and the meeting was very enthusiastic.

Owing to the increased interest in the Catholic Orphans' fair in progress at Market hall last week, as stated in yesterday's issue of the GLOBE, it was decided that the exhibition should be kept open until to-night, when the fair will finally come to a close. The main features of the display have been kept intact, and while the success already achieved is very gratifying it is to be hoped that all who desire to aid a worthy cause will not fail to be present to-night.
