Asbury Park, n, J., Aug. 12.-
Benjamin Prince, a parachute
jumper, who this evening attempted
to float from one Of Johnny Mack's
black hot-air balloons down to the
aviation field of the Asbury Park
meet, 5000 feet below him, was
jolted from the cross-bar below his
parachute just as he cut loose from
the balloon.
His body, at first a black shoe
button against the sunset, came
twisting and turning toward a rose
garden back Of George Coniver's
farm house, 100 yards to the west
Of the grand stand, and struck head
first on the main branch of an ap-
pie tree, then tumbled lifeless into
the garden.

Geo. r. Fisher and A. z.
Wells Took in Is In
ming Ball Game.

Geo. r. Fisher and A. z. Wells
went to Spokane yesterday morning
to see the teams of Spokane and Ia
coma play their big game. They were
amply rewarded for their trip and
during the afternoon saw what will
probably go down as the best game
of the season. Fifteen innings were
played and the score stood 2 to l.,
in favor of Spokane. Thirteen in
nings were played without a run.
Discussing the game, the Spokesman
Review says:
I'm a game of this sort it is well
not to pass too critical judgment.
In spite of many misplays, both of
wits and hands, it was unquestion-
ably a great game, one of the great
est of many seasons. When teams
play 13 innings without run there
is simply no ignoring the intense
interest it is bound to create. Down
town bulletin boards were watched
by hundreds for hours last night,
and when the winning run was fin
ally chalked up there was as much
demonstration as there was at the
park, two miles away.
Schmutz and Baker, both mere
youngsters in years, pitched great
ball. The former was the weaker at
the finish 1t was a hard test, but
the lads stood up to it gamely and
Schmutz was heartbroken when his
captain removed him in the 18th.
The crowd, too, moved more by SYM
pathy than by real common sense,
protested.

THE ALASKAN HAS
THE GOODS

The new edition of 1.-THE Alaskan"
as presented before big audience
at the Grand last evening, was all
to the good, and was a most salts
factory production in every way.
This delightful musical piece, with
the many new features, is better and
brighter than before. and the audi
ence last evening evidently appre-
ciated the fact by the vociferous ap-
plause given the several meritorious
features. Gus c. Weinburg is as
funny as ever, and he is certainly en-
titled to a place in the front rank
as mirth producer. Jessie Stoner.
the pretty prima donna of the COM
pany, is one of the youngest soprano
singers in light opera, and she sus-
tanned her reputation in a most cap
able manner. AL Raulph, as Richard
Atwood, and Detmar Poppen as To-
tenn Pete, together with Richard
Carroll as Waltzingham Watt, shared
The honors with Miss Stoner and Mr.
Weinburg. The piece is filled with
catchy music and many in the audi
ence left the house whistling 1.-The
Face of the Girl l Love-" sung by Al
Raulph and chorus. The SNOWFALL
scene proved to be one of the big
gest hits ever put on here, and the
audience was equal to the occasion.

ing elaborate.-Great Falls Daily

EDW. ROGAN PASSES away
Prominent Citizen and Good Man
Goes to His Reward at Noon
Yesterday.

At noon yesterday Mr.. Edward
Rogan entered upon that sleep
that knows no waking after a
lingering illness with the grip,
resulting in a complication of
diseases. During his illness his
heart became SO irregular that
his pulse ran to 40 for days.
Mr.. Rogan was born in Kings
port on September 3, 1843. He
moved to Johnson City several
years ago to enter the mercantile
business and at the time of his
death was Tax Assessor of Wash
ington County. He was Con-
federate veteran, having served
with distinction throughout the
unpleasantress. 1t is seldom one
meets a man with more good and
noble traits of character than this
man had. He was modest and
unassuming but easily impressed
you with his sterling honesty and
integrity. He was, indeed, one of
natures noblemen. He is surviv-
ed by widow, two grown daugh-
tiers and two married sisters, one
of whom, Mrs. Lynn, of Knox
vile, was with the family when
the end came. He was a member
of the First Presbyterian Church
and the funeral services will be
conducted there Friday morning
at 9 o'clock by DIR. ], L. Allison.
The remains will be taken to
Jonesboro on No. Al and will be
buried from the train in the old
cementery there. The following
gentlemen will act as pall-bearers:
]. Fred Johnson, Frank Taylor,
Frank McCorkle, H. R. PARROT,
!. A. Parsons, R. A. Wood.
The John B. Gordon Camp of
Confederate Veterans has been
requested to attend the funeral
service and space wi : be reserved
at the church for the members.

OVER CANADIAN FISHERIES
Brilliant Forces Will Represent the
United States and Great Brit
ian-To Interpret Treaty

Washington, April 6.-An array of
counsel, greater in number and-more
illustrious in reputation than ever be-
fore assembled at the Hague to engage
in the trial of a special case has been
retained to represent America and
Great Britain in the determination OF
what is undoubtedly the most impor-
tant issue ever presented to the famous
peace tribunal. Technically the issue
is the determination of differences
which have arisen between the tive
governments as to the true intent of the
provision of article | of the treaty of
1918, defining the fishing rights Of
Americans and Canadians in their re-
spective waters. The point of greatest
import is the determination of the
right of a colony or province, such as
Canada or Newfoundland, by local leg
islation, to deprive persons of rights
conferred by treaty between the prin-
cipals. On June next the arbitration
the tribunal is TO meet at The Hague
to hear the oral arguments.
