SENATOR Howell +. JACKSON has al
WAYS been conspicuous for his friendly
offices whc-e Memphis is concerned, but
never more so than at this time when the
question Of the preservation Of our harbOr

the strongest arguments the necessity for
an appropriation OF SS5O,OO0 Tor that puI-

The HAGUE, June 23-The Prince of
Orange passed calm night and peaceful
morning before his collapse. During the
forenoon Saturday he seemed SO well that
the doctors talked of sending him to the
south OF France. At IL o'clock,
however, he suddenly exhibited symp-
toms of extreme weakness aud tainted.
His respiration became greatly enfeebled.
Subsequently slight recovery was
noticeable and his lungs seemed
paralyzed. From this time until death
the prince remained unconscious. The
King has returned from Carlsbad and
held conference with the cabinet. The
president OF the council has convoked a
general state council. The Cabinet has
decided to resort to the provisions of the
law of November 3, 1913, and will
convene the chambers forming the States
General in the plenary congress of
seventy-eight senators, instead of thirty
nine, and l72 deputies instead of eighty
six. This congress will proclaim Princess
Wilhemine successor, under the council
to the regency, with Queen Emma as
regent, and the president of the council as
Chancellor of the Cabinet, has determined
to refuse to share the tutelage with any
German branch of the royal family

the suppression OF export duties, the re-

expenses from S34, 600, 900 to $24 ZOO, 200
and the early conclusion OF treaty Of
commerce with America, as the only
means of extricating Cuba from the eco

Spain to assume the Cuban debt and an-
nual deficit, and that it was impossible 10

mercial relations with America, which
would damage the peninsulsr trade with
the colonies. a slight reform was prom

FISHERS FAILURE
To Wreak a Dark and Bloody Revenge
ON the Man who Once Pre-
vented Kim
From Committing Il HeinOns Crime-A
Negro Preacher with Rather
Sanguinary Disposition.

An unprovoked attempt at assassination
was made Sunday night, about five miles
from the city, on the Pigeon Roost road.
Tony Cazaretta, who is employed to super
intend a farm for Mr.. Andrew Harris, in
that locality, was standing at his gate,
about twenty yards from the door, at lit
tie after o'clock, when he heard slight
noise near him, which he thought sounded
a little suspicious, but did not shift his
position. A few moments atterward
HE HEARD VOICE
within ten feet of HIM exclaim: ':Oh, I've
got you now" Instantly there was click
like the snap OF pistol, but as it was very
dark CaZaretta could not see his assailant,
whom he recognized by his voice 20 be an
esraped convict named William Fisher.
Cazaretta turned and ran toward the
house, and as he entered his door there
was a report and bali whistled unpleas-
antiy close to his ear. He secured his shot
gun, which sat loaded in q corner of the
room, and rushed GU: in search of his
assailant, who had completely disappeared.
Fisher is

lonely place southeast OF the city. The
girl had been visiting at a neighbor's

Fisher followed her, overtaking her in the

rescued the girl and arrested Fisher, when
he was lodged in jail. He was

and sentenced TO work on the county

weeks ago, while the gang were at work
on Union avenue, the guards were seized
and deprived Of their arms, and Fisher,
who had melted the revolt, placed pistol

COLLAPSE OF THE COMBINATION
Formed by Capt. Stubbs and His Apache
and COmanche Indians.

The Stubbs.Indian combination which
was announced to give a series of perform
ances at Olympic Park, beginning Sunday
last and covering three days, has dis
banded. The ponies will be sold, the In
dians sent home, and the agent will take
the captain away to some summer resort.
In numerous flaming posters, handbills
and circulars of all shapes and sizes, Capt.
Stubs declared himself to be the cham
pion wing.shot of America, and offered
fabulous wagers that he could beat any
man in the world shooting with the rifle,
DIR. Carver preferred. \ coed many who
saw him display his skill at Estival Park
about three years ago, expected to be
entertained Sunday, but were sadly
disappointed. 1t was at once apparent
that the captain was not in proper shape,
and though he was bolstered up by his
manager, he was unable to perform feats
which hundred amateurs in Memphis
accomplish with ease. He missed so often
that he was jeered by the crowd, and there
are number OF ugly reports of trickery.
1t is said that the man W.T. o held glass
ball in his fingers for the captain to shoot
at, broke it with a spring held in the palm
of his hand simultaneous with the report
of the gun, and that the balls fired by the
crack-shot went several yards wide of the
mark. The perforated card is also said TO
have been prepared beforehand The In
dians furnished a show that was even
tanner, and the large crowd went home
utterly disguised. An attempt to draw
out another crowd yesterday evening was
a failure, and last night the following was
sent in for publication:
