THE FISHER CASE.
Will Be Argued Before Supreme Court
Next Week.

The Henry Fisher murder case
will be again argued before the ST.
preme Court. Probably no murder
case in the history of Northumber-
land county has attracted the wide
spread attention that the Fisher
case has and the outcome of the
coming argument before the high
est tribunal in the state will be
eagerly looked for. Fisher was
first tried for the murder of Mrs.
Sarah Klinger in September, 1907.
An appeal was made by his attor-
neys and the higher court in May,
1908, reversed the judgment of the
lower court and ordered a new
trial. The second trial took place
in September, 1908, when the ver-
dict was once more against the de-
fendant. His lawyers took excep-
tion to the verdict in the last trial
and base their reasons for a new
trial on twelve assignments of error,
including introduction of improper
evidence and the separate and gross
misconduct of the jury during the
trial. The arguments will be pre-
sented to the Supreme Court dur
ing the week of Monday, October
4th.

IKELER-WARNER.

At high noon on Wednesday,
, September goth, 1909, occurred the
marriage of Miss Laura.F. Warner.
daughter of Or. J. Dimock Warner,
of Jonestown, 10 Mr.. J. Harold
Ikeler, son of Mr.. and Mrs. l. B.
Ikeler, of Greenwood township.
The ceremony was performed at
the brides home, by Rev. J. w.
Diggles, rector of St, Pauls church,
Bloomsbury, in the presence of
members of the two families. There
were no attendants. The Mendels-
sohn Wedding March was played
by Miss Jessie c. Ikeler, sister of
the bridegroom, as the couple en-
tered the parlor.
Ferns and cut flowers were the
decorations. The bride was attireG
in very becoming travelling suit.
Many beautiful gifts we're bestowed
upon the bride by her legion of
friends, among the gifts being some
fine solid silver from the choir of
St. Paul's church, of which she
had been member for many years.
Both of these young people are
we'll known, and deservedly popu-
lar among their acquaintance. For
nearly two years Miss Warner was
very efficient assistant in the bus
mess Office of THE COLUMBIAN.
Leaving Blooms burg on the 6;o5
Lackawanna train, Mr.. and Mrs.
Ikeler went to Buffalo and Niagara
Falls, and other points in New
York. On their return they will
reside with Mr.. Ikeler's parents
near Millville, for the present.
Those present at the wedding
were Rev, J. w. Diggles, Blooms
burg; DIR. J. d. Warner, Miss nellie
Warner, Mr.. and Mrs, K 5. War.
ner, Jonestown; Mr.. and Mrs. l, B.

they enter upon the matrimonial
sea.

With this money the debts have
all been paid; the new cemetery has
been paid for; Il handsome new Of
flee building at the cemetery en-
trance has been erected at a cost OF
$4,000; an iron fence has been erect.
ed on First street at a cost OF So42;
a stone walk costing S225 has been
laid; a new drive through the cem-
etery has been made, costing S225;
steam plant has been installed in
the sexton's house, costing S2S5,S7;
the house has been painted, which
cost $76.S7; and draft of all the
lots in the cemetery has been made
at all expense of about 500. 1t
involved the measurement and sur
vey of every lot, and took much
time and labor.
With this draft the Superntend-
ent is able to locate any lot desired
at a moments notice, where before
it required a search through the
cemetery.
There is on hand and all paid for,
nearly 5000 WORTH of slate vaults
for grave Innings.
1t was discovered by Col, Freeze
and Mr.. Ringrose, by an examina-
ton of the books, that there were
many ,ots on whicE little or moth
ing had been paid by the purchas-
er. A systematic plan OF collection
was instituted, and nearly every lot
was fully paid for, thus realizing
many hundreds of dollars for the
company.
Another very proper plan was
adopted by making charge Of
dollar a year for the care of each
lot Heretofore many graves were
uncared for, no attention being Civ
en- them except what the sexton
gave them. Now each lot owner
is asked for a dollar, and the result
is two or three hundred dollars in
the aggregate, and the company
cares for all graves, and keeps the
grounds in fine order.
Another innovation is the keep
ing of a complete record of every
burial, with the name, age, cause

Mrs. Ent's daughter.

IN SEVEN YEARS.
What Has Been Done by the Rose.
mont Cemetery Company Within
the Past Decade.
COMPANY IS NOW IN fine SHAPE.

There was time when Rosemont
Cemetery was not the most attrac-
tive spot to be found. In fact it
was more or less neglected, and not
much care was taken of it. Some
years ago the entrance was improv-
ed by the erection of residence
for the sexton.
1t was not until seven years ago,
when William R. Ringrose was
elected Superintendent, that things
began to look different. Col. Freeze
and he took matters in hand, and
from that time on, improvements
were made both in outward appear
ance, and in financial management,
until today the company has money
at interest, and the grounds are
beautifully kept.
Mr.. Ringrose was elected Super
intendent on September Ist, 1902.
AT that time there was paid to him
the sum of $I45.54, which was all
the money the company possessed.
It's liabilities were a $4,000 mort
gage, with $500 of unpaid interest; +;
and floating debt of about $500.
Today these debts are all paid,
and there is an invested fund OF
about $4,000 90.
The cash receipts Of the compa-
ny for the past seven years have
been as follows:
