PEMBROKE, Ont, Oct. 20.-The German
who murdered his neighbours wife near
Palmer Rapids, this county, few days ago,
has been arrested and is now being con-
Quoted to Pembroke. His crime is a most
atrocious one He went to the shanty where
the murdered woman lived, of which he was
the landlord, and ordered her to vacate it.
Being unwell and alone with two small
children, she refused to obey the tyrant'S
unreasonable demand, whereupon he nailed
up the door of the shanty from the outside
and set fire to the premises with the help
less family inside. The mother, recognize
ing her perilous position, managed to break
open the door and rescue her children from
the burning building. The tiend, as soon
as he saw her outside, pounded her life out
with club and threw her body back into
the burning building.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-The general con-
vention of the Protestant Episcopal church
this morning listened to report from the
committee on canons. The committee on
the state of the church submitted report
on the proposition for the organic union Of
Christendom. The report recommended
the appointment of joint committe of
fifteen to open communication with the
various other Christian bodies and ascer-
tain whether there is disposition among
them for union on the basis of the
apostles creed, the breaking of
bread and prayer, and to also ascertain
what benefit, in their view. would result
to ChristendOm from such union. A
resolution was adopted to hold the next
general convention in New York city. The
convention then resumed consideration of
the question of missionary work among
the colored people in the United States.
After long discussion it was & azaei-.ea 4 TO
APPOINT A COMMISSION

On missionary work in the South, the COM
mission to report results to the next gen.
eral convention. The principal business Of
the remainder of the day was in taking &C.
ton on the proposed changes in the
liturgy. There was but little opposition
offered to any OF the propositions. A
message of significant nature considering
the conservative character of the Episcopal
body was received from the house of
bishops. 1t was recommendation that
a committee composed of five bishops. five
priests and five laymen be appointed to
open communications with other Christian
bodies in the land with view of ascertain
ing if they have disposition to promote
unity upon the basis of apostolic fellow
ship; the committee also to inquire what
benefit they think can be materially i'm
parted by these separate bodies. one to an
other, and TO devise methods for the evan
gelZation of the world. One section of the
message was as follows:
We believe that all who have been duly
baptized with water in the name of the
Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are
members of the Holy Catholic church.

Col. Kerr will Stay.

1t was rumored yesterday that Aid. Kerr
was to resign, in the Third ward, as can
ddate for the house. and that William
Bickel was to be substituted in his place.
Aid. Kerr said last evening that when it
was proposed to nominate him he objected.
and that ever since the nomination he mad
been disposed to withdraw, but that yester-
day he consulted a number of friends, and
the result was that he had concluded to
stay on the ticket. He said. further, that
he was all the more disinclined to be can
didate from the fact that Aid. Clllen,
against whom he would be compelled to
run, was personal friend. against whom
he would rot like to be a candidate.

Things HE Omitted to Say at
EyOta.
To the Editor of the Globe:
John A. Lovely. Capt. NJ. J. Daniels and Fl.
A. Eckholdt spoke in this village last night to
a very respectable audience, and succeeded
most admirably in Haunting the old bloody
shirt, which they termed the live issues, but
failed to whip the old liners into Republican
harness to favor their success at the Novem-
Der election. The remarks of the spe akers
failed to create any enthusiasm except when
telling story, which seemed to be their prin-
cipal forte. 1t was very evident that ma
jority of the voters present were solid for
Judge Wilson. They surely did not add any
strength to their ticket, Notwithstanding the
desperate effort to rally their forces by adj
vertisrg and procuring brass band from the
neighboring town. The band furnished very
good music for the occasion. During the ar
guments presented by Mr.. Lovely he quoted
one of the rulings of Commissioner Sparks
whereby 100000 900 acres Of land have been
forfeited by certain railroad companies for
nOnfulhment of stIpuatiOnS in contract on
their part. He said: THAT land, fellow
citizens, is yours: belongs to you, and will
pledge myself, if elected, that will look after
it and see that your interests are guarded
with proper protection" He omitted to cali
the attention of the audience to the fact that
the whole business was u matter or record
during Republican administrations and was
left for the Democratic Commissioner Sparks
to unearth and give to the people the status
of the records and render his decision fear
less of consequences and simply in accord
ance with his duty and obligation to the peo-
pie and his oath of office. If the peo
pie will be benefited by the ruling
of Commissioner Sparks I fail to see
why Mr.. Lovely should have the gall to use it
as his political capital, and perhaps in the
next sentence denOunce the Democrats and
try to make it appear to his audience that
they are not capable OF running the business
of the government. Again, he scores the
Democrats of 1855 for granting certain lands
to railroad companies, consisting of every odd
section within the limit of six miles each side
of the road-bed or main track. but neglected
to follow up the land grant business and tell
his audience that the Republican adminstra-
ton was more generous to the railroad cor
porations, and granted them every odd section
within the limit OF twenty miles on each side
of the track. Great God! just think of it,
and then satisfy your curiosity by getting a
map of Dakota and look over only part of
the vast domain that has been squandered
and then ask Bill Winiom to explain, for he
knows more about it than Lovely. Mr.. Lovely
paid very high compliment to Mr.. Blame,
as being the greatest man in America, but

pointed. The formal resignation of the
IN mister has not yet been presented to the
department of state. but is expected
promptly upon his acceptance of the con-
gressional nomination, which, in view of
his action this morning, is now believed to
be beyond doubt.

did not say word during his speech about
his (Blaine's) greatest hobby, i. q. high pro-
tective tariff. Mr.. Lovely made On utter fail
ure so far as introducing or discussing
single question of issue between the parties.
He was decidedly unreasonable and most un-
scrupulous in making wholesale charges
against men and party. AS sample. he
charged the Democratic party with refusing
to admit Dakota as state. also charged that
the Democratic state convention refused to
give the wOrkingmen hearing in that body.
1 am aware there is nothing more uncertain
than the result of election, but do predict,
if there is any merit in practical common
sense. intelligence and integrity, that his
legislative district will give Judge Wilson
rousing majority and elect our candidate for
representative to the state legislature.
