oious Crime.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. I.-Robert Ber-
rier, young man who last week murdered
his mother-in-law at Lexington, n. c., was

Jail and demanded the prisoner. Berrier

fully called out: For Gods sake don t
let the mob get me-" The iallor refusing
to give up the keys, the jail door was bat
tered down and Berrler taken out. He
was taken to an oak tree at the outskirts
of the town, to a limb of which rope
was adjusted. Berrier was placed on a
horse and the rope tied about his neck.
After making request that his child
should be looked after and told nothing of
his horrible deed. the horse was snatched
from under him and his body left hanging
between heaven and earth. Some shots
were then fired at the dangling form and
the lynchers dispersed.

She went to her mother, Mrs. Wulser,
taking with her their only child. After
the separation, Berrier went to Mrs. Wul-
ser's and demanded the child. This was

New YORK, Oct. 17.-Shortly after the
opening of the Protestant Episcopal con-
vention this morning the Rev. DR.. Hunt
ington of New York, spoke in favor of his
resolution, placed on the calendar last
week, for joint committee to prepare a
standard prayer book of 1892. The resolu-
ton was adopted.
Rev. Daniel A. Goodwin, of Pennsyl-
vania, presented report of the committee
on canons, recommend ng the creation OF
deaconnesses and giving details of their
management The resolution was placed
on the calendar. At Ills the mouse went
into committee of whole on liturgical re-
vision with Chancellor Wentworth, OF
Nebraska, in the chair.
When the house of deputies assembled
for the afternoon session they went into a
committee of the whole, with Chancellor
Woolworth, of Nebraska, in the chair. On
motion Of DR.. Hunt it was agreed to insert
after the gospel for Easter day the gospel
on page lSS of the book on liturgical re-
vision for any church where holy commu-
uion may be celebrated. The changes in
the order for the administration Of the
Lords supper, as suggested by the house
OF bishops, was approved.
A discussion On the proposed adoption
of change in the prayer book, which had
been passed by the bishops but which was
not contained IN any report, created a
great deal Of confusion. Rev. DR.. Mann,
of Missouri, sought to have changes
brought about but failed.
The question of the adoption of the last
prayer in the book was then broupht up.
Several speeches We're made on this, and ia
the course of the debate Mr.. H. II. Hand
ing, lay member from Missouri, objected
to any more revision. Dr. Huntington
closed the debate and the amendments
proposed by the committee were adopted.
The house then adjourned

Mr.. Hall proposed an amendment to
section A Of article g. intended to make
provision for modern men-of-war
that do not carry foremasts.
This was laid before the confer
ence. Commodore j. H. Van Stein, of the
Netherland Royal navy. objected to that
part of section B, article g. on lights for

cism.

ing steamers was next read. 1t stipulates
that such steamers when towing another
