jL felfckais. Ally of Late Judge
Fjflmk IM Upon From Ambush |
—His Assail mt Escapes.
f JACKffON, Ky., June 7 —Ed CalU- j
scan, known as “Deacon Ed.." former
Sheriff of Breathitt county, ally of
Jndffe James Hargis when the latter
nss In his prime as the boss of
Breathitt and a leader In Innumerable
Annie, was shot from ambush at his
•toes thia morning and probably mor
tally wounded.
# Ihe aaaaasln. concealed in a coal
i'iank. shot Callahan In the side as
n» stepped to the door to open for
Swaalness. Doctors were called lmme
dlately. Callahan has known for
[ Some time that his life was In dan*
• gsr<- Recently his feud with the Dea
tons had broken out afresh and many
times battles to the death were im
minent.
A year ago Callahan was attacked
hy John Spicer, brother of Callahan's
Wlf«. who had run away from him.
Spicer slashed Callahan's arm almost
off. and wounded him so his life was
despaired of. Callahan’s 17-year-old
son. Wilson Callahan, came up during
the affray and shot and killed Spicer-
Onßehan was in the lumber busi
ness in Jackson when he became al
lied with the ffarglses and figured
with them through all their bloody
fends. He was elected sheriff when
Hargis was elected county judge, and
It was during his term that the assin
atkms of Cox, Cockrill and Marcum
msenrred. Curt Jett said afterward
that Callahan handed him the pistol
with which he killed Marcum.
Hargts and Callahan were both tried
for -complicity in the murder but were
acquitted. Callahan’s career through
out was linked with that of Judge
Hargis. who met such a violent death,
slain by his son. Beach Har
, It Is believed the result of the fatal
wounding of the former sheriff will be
the ordering Into Breathitt county of
a battalion of national guard to keep
order. Judge Adams has already ap
pealed to Gov. Willson for protection
While handling the business of the cir
eat court, and inasmuch as the follow
ers of Ed Callahan openly declare they
will kill every adherent of the Cock
rill and Deaton faction there is little
chance that order can be restored ex
cepting with the state troops.
Callahan was known as a dead shot
snd he has always strenuously dented
WUrt he ever countenanced any kill
ings from the “bushes," and the fact
that he finally met his fate this way
has stirred his immediate followers.

WELL FISHER
lEMIESJORTUHE
Wealth of Aged Detroiter Who
Passed Away Is Estimated
At $2,000,000.
Maxwell M. Fisher, aged Bb. one of]
the oldest and wealthiest residents of
Detroit, is dead :n his home, No. 624
Woodward a\e. Death followed years
! of illness and was not unexpected.
Mr. Fisher was bon* In New Jersey
in 1824. His parents were poor, and
at the age of 20 he started for the
rapidly growing west, landing In D«h
trolt after many hurdshlpa, with less
than a dollar in his pocket. For two
years he followed his trade as a
mason; then he became a contractor
and builder, forming a partnership
with his brother, which later developed
into one of the biggest firms of its
kind in the city.
Always of a saving disposition. Mr.
Fhsher hoarded his earnings. About
this time the lumber industry was de
veloping rapidly, and he saw the splen
did chance for investment. Thia busi
ness also flourished, and for years he
was one of the largest dealers in the
state.
After retiring from the lumber busi
ness Mr. Fisher returned to Detroit
and went into the brokerage business
with E. G, Booth and David G. Pres
ton. This business was continued for
18 years, and the three* partners made
fortunes. He retlii'd from active busi
ness life in 1881. In 1904 he was
stricken with paralysis, and since then
had been almost helplefa.
Mr. Fisher’s wealth is estimated at
12,000.0000. He once owned the pres
ent site of the Majestic building and
the Wright. Kay & Cos. corner. He
also owned some flne residence prop
erty on Woodward-ave.
Mr. Fisher was married four times.
His first wife, to whom he was united
more than 60 years ago, died over 50
years ago. His second wife also died.
He was divorced from the third, and
the fourth survives. He leaves one
son, Albert C. Flsh?r, w ho resides on a
farm near Bloomfield.
The advent of a baby In the Fisher
home was the cause of a bitterly con
tested lawsuit about two years ago.
People were astonished when the an
nouncement was made that there was
a babe in the Fisher home, and the
heirs at once took steps to see that
the baby w-as cut off from any share
in the Fisher estate. It came out later
that the child was adopted, and Mrs.
Fisher said that It would be no claim
ant through her for a part of the prop
erty. About this time Albert Fisher
filed a petition in the probate court,
asking that his father be placed under
care of a guardian. This was done
and since then the Union Trust Cos.
has managed the estate.
The funeral Monday afternoon is
private. >
TO BUILD MEMORIAL TO
HARRIET BEECHER STOWE
Institution for Education of Negroes
Will Be Constructed by Pop
ular Subscription.
NEW YORK. June 7.—A fund to
found an institution for the education
of Negroes as a memorial to Harriet
Beecher Stowe, is the result of an
address last night by Dr. Charles Ed
ward Stowe, son of the author of
“Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” in which he told
how his mother wrote the book. Dr.
Stowe said:
"My mother had not the slightest
idea of what she would write about
until one day in church, suddenly the
whole scene of Uncle Tom and Simon
Legree floated before her eyes. When
she reached home she went up to her
room and wrote the chapter that most
of you are familiar with. ‘The death
of Uncle Torn.' Then she called her
six children about her and read it to
them until they cried.”
Dr. Stowe said his mother’s plan had
been to found a Negro educational In
stitution with the proceeds of the sale
of the book, but she made little money
from the sale. The suggestion was
then made that a fund be started for
such an institution as a monument to
the author, and it was unanimously
agreed to by the congregation.
MURDERERS ESCAPE.
Patrols Search for Slayers of Dr. Wm.
Jones, Chicago Scientist.
MANILA. June 7.—Word was re
ceived today that the three Filipino
murderers of Dr. William Jones, of
the Chicago Columbia museum, who
were being brought to this city for
execution, escaped from their guards
in the mountains of the Neuva Vizcaya
province, near Pangasinan. PatroU
are searching for the murderers.
The escape was .made during the
night and a thorough investigation
has been ordered in the belief that the
guards were guilty of gross careless
ness, if not complicity in the escape.
Dr. Jones was killed while studying
the hill tribes. He misinterpreted a
challenge by the natives and received
a half dozen spear wounds, from which |
he died shortly after reaching his boat.
WILL REMOVE LEPER
John Early. Over Whose Case Special
ists Differ Goes To New York.
NEW YORK. June 7 John Early,
pronounced by the Washington health
authorities a leper, Is expected to be
; brought to New York this week. The
'health officials have consented to his
removal upon assurance that he will
receive proper treatment here.
Early has been quatantined In a
tamp a few miles from Washington
since last August, where his disease
was diagnosed as leprosy. Several
specialists employed by his family
examined him there und have deter
mined that he is not suffering from
leprosy. Dr. L. Duncan Buckley, of
this city, who has visited Early In
Washington, will have charge of his
case.
The Washington authorities, while
consenting to the removal, still df.iß
nose the case as leprosy.
