PROTESTANT BISHOP OF MADRID

MADRID, Sept. 23.-The Most Rev.
Lord Plunkett, Episcopal Archbishop
of Dublin, assisted by the Bishops of
Clogher and Down, Ireland, today
performed the ceremony of c~onsecrat-
ing the Rev. Senior Cabrera as the first
Protestant Bishop of Madrid. The cere-
mony was private, but is said to have
been very imposing. Oneof the features
of the ceremonies was the administra-
tion of the sacrament to 12O Spanish
converts. Lord Plunkett and his col
leagues arrived here yesterday, and
left for Ireland this evening.

McGhee, and after beating him into in

was brought into USE, to make their
deadly work doubly sure, and their

The negroes then ri1ed the store of a

they could carry away. They fled to

almost certain that as soon as darkness

took a leading part in the proceedings,

that as soon as all doubt of the pris-
