PROBABLE MURDER BY A JEALOUS MAX The Blow Which Fractured a Skull.—Yesten- day morning two colored men—Frank Wat son and George Miles—got into a quarrel in Hughes’ allev, near St. Ann's Infant Asylum, during which Miles caught up a sharpstone and struck Watson on the head, over the leit temple, felling him and inflicting a bad wound. After coming to his senses Watson found his Way tothe fourth precinct stationhouse, and an officer was detailed at once to secure Miles, but he had escaped. Drs. Adams and Newman were summoned, and pronounecd the skull of the sufferer fractured badly. Jealousy is stated to have been the cause of the fight. THE DIsaPPorntsD CONTRACTORS who have failed to receive paving contracts under the District Commissioners should either bridle their tongues or be forced to make good the allegations which too many of them ventilate on street corners. These are to the effect that certain members of Congress have more in- fluence in securing awards of contracts than the offer of the lowest competing bidder. The disappointed ones hint at an investigation by Con; and say some ugly things, which if not true should debar the complainants from ever securing a contract, for the want of or- dinary discretion, if nothing else. ROBBERY AND SHOOTING.—Saturday night Owen Taylor, a colored man, stole the money Srawer from James Grinder’s store, corner of 3d and C streets southwest.

Father Keane, formerly assistant pas- tor of St. Patrick’s Chureh, in this city, was yesterday consecrated Bishop of the Rich- mond diocese with imposing ceremonies. Pre- cisely at 10 o’clock the pcocession emerged from the episcopal residence, adjoining the cathedral, and entered the church. At its head were fifty or more priests, followed by the archi-episcopal ¢1 with attendants and acolytes. Then came Bishop Moore, of Florida, attended by Rev. Messrs. Brennan and O'Cal- Jahan; Bishop Gross, of Georgia, with Rev. Messrs. Parker and Orr; Bishop Lynch, of Charleston, with Rev. Messrs. Brady and Clark; Bishop Foley, of Chicago, with Rev. Messrs. Maken and McNeny: and Bisho Kain, of Wheeling, West Virginia, attende by Rev. Messrs. Gress and McGrath. These were preceded by the bishop elect, and after them came the consecrator, Archbishop Gib. ns, and assistants. The cathedral was crowded with Richmond Catholics and visi- tors from neighboring cities. Three hundred excursionists from Washington and six hun- dfed from Baltimore, who arrived Saturday night, augmented the crowd. Noticeable Smong the distinguished persons pre_ent out- side of the clergy, were prominent State and elty authorities. Gov. Holliday was among those present. The chureh choir, assisted by Kessnich’s fine brass band, shige popular march, headed the procession as it entered the edifice. The Archbishop then, attended by Rev. Messrs. Vaudevyver and O'Coune", were before the high altar. J The Bishop elect, accompanied by his assist- ants, Rt. Rey. Bishop Foley, of Chicago, and Kain, of Wheeling, advanced to the foot of the altar, and the senior assistant asked that Father J. J. Keane be elected tothe episco- pate. The pontifical bulls for the diocese of Richmond and the vicariate of North Carolina were then read by the notary, the Rev. Mr. Dennis, St. Sulpice. At the close of the read- ing the elect made a solemn profession of faith, and then was administered the customary oath. After this the Archbishop examined the elect in referer ce to his faith and the exercises of the virtues peculiar to the episcopal au- jority. At the conclusion of this ceremony mass was commenced, the Archbishop being assisted by ‘v. J. Walter as assistant priest. Very Rev. A. Maginen, St. Sulpice, and T. Griffin, Vicar General, as deacons of honor; Rev. D. 0’Con- nell, sub-deacon of the mass. The ceremonies were presided over by Rev. J. A. McCallen, St. Sulpice, of Baltimore, as first master of cere- monies, Rev. Mr. Barotti, of Washington, as second, and Rev. Willbudus, Order of’ St. Benedict, as third. The Bishop elect com- menced mass with the Archbishop. After the gospel an eloquent consecration sermon was preached by bishop Lyuch, of Charleston, 8.C. At the end of the preliminary prayer the Litany of the Saints was sung in an impres and eifective manner by all of the clergy pres- ent, the elect meanwhile lying prostrate beside the mnecuing aren bishop During the singing the archbishop arose and solemnly blessed the bishop-elect thrice. The gospels were next placed on the Bishop-elect’s shoulders, and the archbishop and the assistant bishops placed their hands on his head again and said: ceive thou the Holy Ghost, ‘followed by vari prayers and petitions. @ preface was then subg, and at its close the head of the bishop- elect was bound in linen cloth, and during the singing of the “Veni Creator Spiritus” wasan- nounced with chism by the archbishop. After appropriate prayers the hands were aiso an- nointed. Then followed the blessing of the erosier or staff of office. The ring was then placed on the finger of the elect. The books of the gospels were then removed from the neck and shoulders of the candidate and given to the conseerator, saying: “Receive the gos- pel, go preach,” and the kiss of peace given. At the v which was celebrated by Archbishop ibbons, the newly consecrated bishop preached an eloquent sermon, taking for his text the words of the holy apostle St. Peter (1. Ephesians, iv., 11:) “If any man speak, let him speak as the words of God: if man minister, let it be as from the power which God administereth: that in all things God may be honored through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory and dominion forever and ever. men.” SKETCH OF THE NEW BISHOP. Rev. John Joseph Keane was born in Boly- shannon, county Donegal, Ireland, September 12, 1830. In 1847 his father, Mr. Hugh Keane, with his family, left Ireland and came to America. They lived in St. Johns, New Bruns- wick, 18 months, when his parents left for Baltimore, where they lived until their death. The mother of the subject of this sketch died in 1868. The father followed his wife on the 10th September, 1877. Bishop Keane was given an excellent education at Calvert Hall, under the care of the Christian Brothers. His first ambition was to become a merchant, and he entered the publishing house ot John Mur- phy, in Baltimore, and in about twelve months secured ee inthe dry goods house of John 8. Borry & Co., where he remained about two years. During his connection with these houses he was very attentive to his re- ligious duties. His regular frequentation of the sacrament, his exemplary conduct, and his modesty strongly impressed his spiritual uide, Father Foley, (at present Bishop of Jhicago,) who, Jkt ld ie evidences of a true vocation for the ministry, advised the young penitent to give up the world and sur- render himself wholly to God’s service. ing in accordance with this advice, he made arrangements to enter St. Charies college, which he did in 1859, at the age of 20. After a course of inree years he graduated at St. Charles college with first honors, and entered St. Mary's seminary in 1862. ‘Having com- pleted the reguiar course of moral and dog- matic theology, sacred eloquence, &c., he was ordained by Archbishop Spalding on July 2, 1866. At the same time were ordained Father Kain, now Bishop of Wheeling, West. Va.; Rev. Louis A. Morgan, successor to Father Keane in St. Patrick's church, Washington ; Kev. 8. J. Kelley, recently president of Loyola college, and eleven other clergymen. He was at once appointed assistant pastor of St. Pat- rick’s church, in this city where he remained until elevated to the episcopacy. He is an eloquent speaker. ——————— Educational Institutions.

AN ALLEGED FEMALE SwiNDLER.—Some of cur music dealers have recently been imposed upon bya female swindler, traveling under the name (probably assumed) of Mrs. Clark, and so far she has managed to escape arrest.
