Mysterious Shooting of Joseph Fisher a
Landenburg.

.
Fifty-years-old Joseph Fisher, of Landen-
burg, Pa, who was admitted to the Phla-
delphia Presbyterian Hospital on Sunday
night suffering from a gunshot wound in
the left arm above the elbow, died there
Monday morning. 1t was claimed by
Fisher that the wound was accidentally
received.
The shooting took place in the house of
Philip Hufnell at I.andenberg. The only
persons present were Fisher and a woman
named Ann Ruthvan, After his admis-
sion to the hospital, Fisher appeared anx-
ious to relieve her from all blame, while
admitting that the wound was received at
her hands. He was accompanied to the hos
pital by his brother-in-law, James Shore
of 55 Mill street, Germantown, and a
friend, Fred Lund, of Landenberg. Shore
said that he did not witness the deed. but
believes it occurred at . o'clock on Sunday
afternoon. While DIR. Giffin was attend
ing the wounded man the latter declared,
according to Shore that he was alone in
the house with the Ruthvan woman and
seeing gun formerly owned by him ex-
pressed an intention to own it again. Then
the weapon was picked up by him. The
next event was itsgoing off. The deceased
is alleged to have declared in this connec-
ton that he did not blame the woman. -
DIR. Gitln said the dead man was shot
from the rear in the left arm at the elbow.
Frederick Lund said he had known the
deceased ii years. lie was three miles
away from the Hufnell house when the
shooting occurred, but came over as soon
as he learned of it. He reached the scene
during the dressing of the wound by the
doctor, and Fisher declared upon seeing
him: Its all mp with me-"
while on the way to the hospital"
added Lnnd, "he said it was all an acct
dent and vet afterWarh asked tls Why she
did it, Again, he added, no one is to
blame"
Others said that Fisher and the woman
were good friends. Land and Shore say
the affair was an accident. The coroner
will investigate.

IRON HALL MATTERS.
Receiver Carpenter Expresses Good Hopes
For delaware Claimnnts.


Receiver Frank D. Carpenter expects to
make an equitable disbursement Of the
Iron Hall funds in his hands about the LIST
of November Local Branches Nos. 407 and
400 and Sisterhood Branch No. 1875 have
turned over $4,000 to him, being 20 per
cent of all assessments levied since Decem-
Der GOTH 1857. The remaining so per cent
or $4,000, that has been paid by the MEM
hers IN this State, is in the hands of the
indianapolis receiver of the order, and Mr..
Carpenter hopes to get large portion of it
for distribution here.
He has no authority to demand it from
the Indianapolis receiver, but thinks if the
affairs of the order are wound up in an
equitable manner considerable slice ut
least of the $4,000 will be sent here for dis
tribution. There are but 10 members Of
the order here and the funds in hand will
be justly apportioned among them ac-
cording to the amount each has paid in
and drawn out. That is to say, il a mem
Der has paid in $500 and drawn out $3.50, he
will get only half as much as one who has
paid in $500 and drawn out nothing.
