Attorney Shipmati. for tlio | i ectt tioa Made a cleat c*«e *e upon the defense yesterday afternoon b> off' i iug In eridtaoc a confession by the prisoner, in which he acknowledges that he was an accomplice in the crime, though affirming that his wife, aud not he, . omni tted the deed. The statement was maiie by the prisoner upon his own request to District Attorney Cummings on December •!, 1 sev eral days after lit was placed in j.iil on the charge of murder. The graphic story told by Fisher,then panic strick- j en with fear of the gallows, was tak- j 9ii down by Court Stenographer Cum niings and afterwards tianscrihed for use in court. In his confession the prisoner tells of the quarrels between his wife and Mrs. HUnger, with whom they hoard ed, of soveral unsuccessful attempts, made bv his wife on the aged lady. The story was revolting and nauseat ing Mrs. Fisher is described as hav ing put disgusting ingredients in Mrs. Klinger's coffee with the hope that they would cause her death. The night before the murder Mrs. Fisher cut the heads from some matches anil put them in the coffee. At 11:30 a. m. Fish er awoke and went into Mrs. Kling er's room to sei what time it was. She was sitting in bed crying and read ing her Bible. Fisher went back to bed and rose several hours later. At breakfast Mrs. Klinger tasted the sul phur in the coffee and accused Mr\ Fisher of trying to poison her. A quarrel ensued and Fisher ran from the house. Ho came back iu the after noon, hnt the house was locked. He trit to get in several times,but conhl not. At 4 o'clock ne met his little daughter on the step. "Mommv's dead' Mommy's dead!" she cried. Taking his hand she led hiiu through the house to the front room. Mrs. Klinger lay in a pool of blood. Mrs. Fisher explained that she had killed the aged woman in the kitchen with riONUHENT AN U BODIES REHOVED Tiie new park just uosv seeuis to be the centre of interest aud there is hardly au lioar of the ilay when a group of lookers-on may not be seen viewing the operations. The work is progressing very rapidly along all lines. The concrete pavement being con structed by P. J. Keefer is finished along nearly one-half of the way. The grading is completed sufficiently far to reveal just how much work in this line will be required. It is now plain (hat the entire amount of work in volved will prove considerably less than was figured on in the beginning, i In grading, probably only little more than one-half of the cemetery will need filling up, while over a small portion the surface will have to be re moved. The monument in the north-east corner erected to the memory of the Wolf family, along with the remains of the fivo persons buried there, has been removed to the Odd Fellows' cemetery on a plot near the Geisiuger mausoleum. Hiram Wolf, who was born in 182:1 aud died in 18*if>, was first lieutenant in Couiiiany 11, second Pennsylvania! volunteers, Mescian war. His body : and another one of the.family were en-1 closed in a inetalic casket and were | very easily removed. The remains of the other members of the family were iu a remarkably good state of preserva tion, which is attributed to the fact that the north east corner lies high i aud dfy. Iu graves iu other portions I of the tract that lie lower aud in which interments were more recently made scarcely auy trace of the remains j are found. Miss Mullen's Demise. Miss Catherine Mnllen, after a long .ege of illness departed this life at 10:15 o'clock Tuesday night She was! twenty-two years of age aud was a most highly respected young lady. She was the daughter of Mrs. John K. Mnllen, who survives along with the following brothers and sisters: John Mullen,of this city; James Mul len of Philadelphia; Charles Mullen of Newark, N. J.; Margaret (Mrs. Harry Amey) of Chicago; aud Ella (Mrs. John Mintzer) of Danville.

She en plained that they hail been quarreling and that her temper had mastered her. lie aud his wife cleaned away some of the evidence* of the crime and then lie went down town and got drunk while (die went- to her sister's house iu Tharptown. Mrs. Klinger lived un til 10 o'clock and when she died the dioemaket living next door heard a uolse in the house. Fisher expressed himself as very sorry to implicate his wife in the crime,but the ends of justice demand ed it. A month after Fisher had written | this coufessiou, lie wrote to his wife, threatening to implicate her in the crime. "You're not as innocent as you say you are," tie wrote. In the next letter which ho wrote he pleaded 1 with her to stand by him. " You know i 1 fell in the crick when 1 was drunk | aud got the nosebleed Sunday* night aud that is where the blood on my shirt came from. " He appealed to her sense of duty to him. "You know I'm j your husband and iu awful trouble, and yon ought to'get uie out. Think of the terrible weight which would be ! on yon for the rest of your life if 1 should go to the gallows." His con fession seemed to rankle in his mind. "Sometimes I say things and turn right around and say something differ ent It's trouble that I have. " He de tailed au elaborate alibi for her to present iu court to clear them both. After the documents had linen read ! Mrs. Fisher's sister was called to the ! stand aud testified that at 10 :30o'clock on tho day of the murder Mrs. Fisher came to her house in Tharptown and stayed there until four iu the after noon. Fisher therefore must have been alone iu tlie house at the time he said his wife was there also. Warden McDonnell testified that Fisher said they couldn't prove he did the deed, iu court. He wasn't afraid; they never hang people iu this county anyway. The most he would get was ten years.

As bearing of all this upon Oklahoma's ambition for State hood, now apparently so nearly real ized, we shall,know in the immediate I future. Should the President conclude that the new Constitution squares at I one with the enabling act and the fun | damental ,law of tne land, he will i doubtless soon proclaim the new State In the event of a contrary decision, it will be months, perhaps years, before | Oklahoma is a State. The people at large are not so much interested in the Statehood matter, hbwever,as they are in S. S. VOMERS A 1 DIHONTOUfi ' I The Pennsylvania State Sabbath I School Association, with headquarters 'j in the city of Philadelphia, is one of the greatest organizations of Christian | workers in the State. Its annual con ventions bring together a larger num ber of delegates than any other relig ious organization. With auxiliary associations iu all of the sixty-seven counties and these sub-divided into district associations, it has a system of organization that carries its bene- j tits to every local school no matter where it is located. Pennsylvania is the largest Sunday School State iu the Union. Within the borders of the State are eleven thousand and sixty-five schools enroll ing 1,682,497 membors, ueariy one- j fourth of tho population. This vast organization will hold its Forty-third Annual Convention in the city of Uniontown, Fayette county. October i), 10 and 11, 1i)o; Uniontown, therefore, will be the ( mecca toward which the Sunday j School workers, regardless of denom inational creed or name, will journey i from every couuty iu the State. A program of unusual strength lias been provided. Melvin E. Trotter a rescue mission worker of national, wide reputation will direct the spir itual and devotional part of the con vention. Giant A. Tullar and Owen Meredith, of tho firm Tullar and Meredith, New York, music publish ers will have charge of the music. The executive and business part will be looked after by Hon. John Wana maker and Mr. H. J. Heinz,the form er Honorary President and tho latter President of tho State Association. The program also contains the names of Dr. Martin O. Brumbaugh, Phila. ; W. C. Pearce, Chicago; Mis. M. O. Lamoreaux, Chicago, aud many other workers of note and prominence. Uniontown is preparing through a carefully selected committee to enter tain this gathering iu a manner never before equallod. For forty-thre" years this convention has annually held its meetings All the important cities in the State have been visited; Union town, therefore, i 9 endeavoring to do tho thing just a little nicer aud just a little better than all the rest. The Montour County Association is entitled to 3 delegates. Credential cards entitling holders to reduced rates on all railioadß aud special en tertainment rates at Uniontown can be secured from D. R.

No matter what its characteristics, it expreeses the delib erate viewsjof the ablest men in Okla homa ami is the sentiment of the en tire territory. The Constitution prohibits the monopolization or consolidation of competing public service corporation; absolutely divorces railways from the control of oil or coal lauds; creates a railway commission with powers as ; ample as those now lodged iu the Inter state Commerce Commission; adopts the initiative aud referendum, and gives trial by jury to a person accused of contempt or violating an injunc tion. It goes to the very limit, in fact along the lines advocated by men of j tho Bryan school for curbing corpora tions and limiting the powers of the courts.

Examine the formula on their bottle wrappers—the same as sworn to by Or. Pierce, and you will find that his "Oolden Medical Discovery," the great, blood-purifier, stomach tonic and bowel regulator—the inedicino which, while not recommended to cure consumption in its advanced stages (no medicine will do that) yet does cure all thoso catarrhal condi tions of head and throat, weak stomach, torpid liver and bronchial troubles, weak lungs and hang-on-coughs, which, if neg lected or badly treated lead up to and finally terminate In consumption. Take the "Golden Medical Discovery" in time and it is not likely to disappoint you if only you give it a thorough and fair trial.' JDon t expect miraclos. It won't do supernatural things. You must exorcise your patience and persevere in its use for a reasonable length of time to get Its full benefits.
