Archbishop Bourne Enthroned.

LONDON, Dec. 29.-Dr. Bourne,
former bishop of Southwark, was en-
throned today as Roman Catholic arch
bishop of Westminster in Westmlnls-
ter cathedral with much stately cere-
mony The cathedral was filled TO us
capacity with church dignitaries whose
robes of office lent gorgeousness to the
nict,1re. The fine marble inlaid throne
a memorial of the late Cardinal
Vaughan, was used for the ceremony
The procession which preceded the
archbishop to the altar took twenty
minutes to pass up the nave.
Archbishop Bourne is the fourth
prelate to occupy the archiepiscopal
throne of Westminster since the
Catholic hierarchy in England was
restored in 1850, by the appointment
of Cardinal Wiseman, who was follow
ed in turn by Cardinal Manning and
Cardinal Vaughan.
Archbishop Bourne is in his forty
third year. having been born at Clap
| ham on March %, 1861. He was edu-
Gated at St Cuthbert's college, Ushaw
ST Edmund's college, Ware, st. Sui
pice, in Paris, and finally at Louvair
university. Ordained priest in 1884
he worked first at Blackheath, anG
afterwards at MOrtlake, West Grin
stead, and Henfield, Susses. At the
latter place he established a seminary
and in 1889 he was appointed rector O.
the Southwark Diocesan seminary
near Guilford.
In 1895 he was named Domestic Pre-
late to Pope Leo XIII. On May 1, 1898
Cardinal Vaughan consecrated him ii
tular bishop coadjutor to the Bishol
/ of Southwark, with the right of sue
cession. A year later the great ag,
| of DR.. Butt led him to resign the bish
opric of Southwark, and thus DR.. Bourn
when quite young man, was callet
| to rule over the vast diocese in which
he had worked throughout his priest
hood. His appointment as coadjuto
| was entirely unexpected, and it me
with much opposition, chiefly on tn
ground that he was quite an unknown
man. AS time went on, however, he be
come recognized as an able bishop.

TURNER IS THE MAN
Foremost in the Race for
GovernorShip.
WILL BE FORCED TO ACCEPT
Rank and File of Democratic Party
Demands That He Be
Nominated.

Joel Smith says in the Seattle Mail
and Herald:
All the efforts of democratic leaders
throughout the state to stem the tide
of popular sentiment in favor of COM
cept the democratic nomination for
governor next year seem but to add to
the force of his determination to that
end on the part of the rank and file OF
the party. The efforts of the leaders
have been made at the instance of
Senator Turner who has made it
very plain that he does not desire the
nomination and furthermore does not
desire the office. But the minor work.
ers and the silent members of the par
ty cannot be made to understand this
fact, and the vast majority of them
seem determined to insist that the for
mer senator accept the nomination and
make the race In support of their
contention they point out that Senator
Turner has been honored by the party
Nnel II WAS III llt dSCelueDCN, anu
that for that reason, he should bow to
the Will of the party now, and make
every effort in his power to contribute
to the restoration of the party to pow
er. Men who are closest to Senator
Turner while understanding his desire
to be permitted to remain in private
life until such time as he can be re-
turned to the senate, believe that he
Will not be insensible to such a popular
demand as seems to be working in his
favor, and that, if properly pressed
he Will accept the nomination. The
efforts of the friends of other demo-
cratic candidates for governor to arouse
sentiment in favor of their favortes
have not been crowned with much sue
cess, and even the circulation of the
information that Senator Turner HIM
self desires the nomination of State
Senator Warren W. TOlman of Spo-
kane, has not aroused the enthusiasm

Glass Manufacturers Get Together.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Dec. 29.-As re-
suit Of the movement started some
time ago the window glass manufac-
turers of the country are holding an
other conference in Pittsburg today.

factories, and to maintain the selling
prices, and thus keep up the wages

One of the significant signs of the

republican organization in Seattle.
With the time fer the municipal con-
ventiOn less than six weeks away the
republican leaders of Seattle are

politics and candidates. and it seems
at this time that it will be impossible

factions in such a manner as TO make
a united fight possible. The Piper

Accepting the theory that the aver
age of the votes of 1900 and 1902 were
normal, Washington is republican
state by a difficult majority, and if any
democrat is to be elected to office in
a presidential year he must be elected
with the aid of republican votes. This
being the case there is no candidate
vet suggested who could poll anything
like the vote which would be given to
Turner. The republicans who believe
in honest and decent politics cannot be
driven by their leaders to follow their
party flag to the corporation grave,
and there are many evidences that the
republican procession is in danger Of
being switched off to the road which
leads to that destination. The time has
not been forgotten in the annals Of
Washington politics when distasteful
republican leadership caused a repudi-
alton at the polls of that party, and
there are portentious indications in the
political sky that history will repeat
itself and that the local drama of 1895
will be re-enacted.

Will H. Parry, president of the Seat
tie city council, has declared himself
out of the mayOralty contest, as has
also city comptroller John Riplinger.
On the part of the former the statement
is taken to be conclusive, though
there is still some effort to induce Rip
linger to further consider the matter.
Riplinger is a young man in politics,
clean, able public official and the
vote cast for him in the last munich
pal contest proved him to be a candi-
date of wide personal popularity. His
present desire is to continue can
date to succeed himself in his present
office, an ambition which appears to be
uncontested by any other serious as
pirant. To guide him in continuing
in that course he has before him the
example Of Frank Paul who two years
ago might have readily succeeded him
self in the same office had he not aban
doned it to run after the mayOrality
nomination.

Of these widely diverged elements war
ring for control it seems most GER
tain that which ever way the nominal
tons go there will be a large and well
organized bolt from the party ticket.
In the midst of this chaotic condi-
ton former senator John l.. Wilson
has shown his political judgment by
leaving the city on vacation of sew
to Cuba, leaving his fight in the hands
OF his local lieutenants, chief of which
is E. c. Hughes. I say leaving his
fight advisely, for to one who has
followed the actions of the former SEN
ator for the past ten years it is incon-
ceivable that he will permit the city
contest to be pulled off without play
ing with all the strength at his COM
mand to secure for himself an advan
tageous position nits settlement.
Had Wilson remained in Seattle to
direct his portion of the fight person

in manner which would have militat-
ed against his senatorial candidacy,
But he was wise enough to see that
possibility, and too wise to be caught

PurceIl's Surprise.

81 want to talk to you few mo-
ments.' he said, directly after he
entered the room.
81 am ready to listen," she replied,
looking forward to some contest, and
believing that Dick Burt must be the
subject of it.
Hurriedly, but emphatically, her
father told her that he was a ruined
man unless she chose to save him.
He mentioned no names, but dwelt
on the fact that she could save him.
How many a time has an innocent
daughter been offered thus!
Kate listened in silence. She could
not grow any paler, but her face be-
came set, and filled with even deeper
suffering.

lips Guivering with excitement

Purcell. in bitterer tone than he had
ever spoken before to his daughter.
You can prevent my utter ruin by
marrying an honest fellow who loves
you, and you refuse. That's what l
call love and duty to parent"
Kate listened with that feeling
which we have all sometimes known
the wild consciousness that what we
are suffering is uncomfortable, and that
We must fly from it-that we cannot
bear it. And set we must.
She stood holding to the back Of q
chair, looking down at her father, who
had retained his seat opposite to her,
and who seer I'd so different from
what he once had been that she felt
like one in nightmare trying to re-
cover herself.
Have l ever failed in my love and
duty to you?" she asked, as soon as
she could speak steadily.
Not until cow. But now is the
time when nest need your help, and
you refuse it,
She was torn by the conflicting feel
ings of love to her father, desire to
do as he desired, and an insurmount-
able repugnance, deep conviction
that this thing parent had no right
to require. No duty called upon her to
make that last supreme sacrifice Of
