Attorney Frank Shea Is Con-
sidered a Hero by His
Friends.
)R. HARDINGs BOARD BILL.
How Physician Attempted to En-.
force Payment From One of
His Lodgers.

Attorney Frank Shea is considered by
his friends as a heroic champion of the
fair and DR.. W. A. Harding of 500 Sutter
street has decided never again to let rooms
or furnish board for lonely females who
desire the hospitality of his home.
In fact, DR.. Harding looks upon the
keeping of dodgers of the gentler sex as a
dismal failure, and the events which led
him to this conclusion were told in Justice
Groezinger's court yesterday.
AS shown by the evidence, Miss M. A.
Deering contracted with the medico to
occupy apartments in the house to carry
on her business as q dressmaker, at a
monthly rental of $35, offering at the same
time to grace the family table at $50 per
month.
Both parties were apparently satisfied
for some time, and until the dressmaker's s
trade fell off and she failed to promptly
iquidate her Indebtedness to the doctor
when 1t fell due on the first of the month.
The lessee of the rooms demonstrated
and demanded his dues, but Miss Deering
could not pay and would not move, and
her landlord was in quandary.
Finally he hit upon an original plan.
Instead of instituting a suit for unlawful
detainer and having her put out he quietly
locked Miss Deering in her room and
announced that he would not allow her to
depart until the $55 due was forthcoming.
She was not made to go hungry, her meals
being sent to her regularly, but no callers
were permitted to see her.
Not having the time to watch Miss
Deering himself the doctor hired a man
named Burns to do the work for him and
the guard was stationed at the door during
the day TO prevent communication with the
outside world
This went on for several days until Miss
Deering managed to get word to ATTORNEY
Shea, friend, asking him TO rescue her
from her captivity.
The attorney did not stand on ceremony
when he called at the house and demanded
admission.
Burns demurred, but was seized bv the
attorney and tossed to one side, while the
lawyer dashed upstairs and before he
could be prevented had bundled Miss
Deering out of the house.
The suit was begun against the doctor
for the return OF the wearing apparel
which Miss Deering had lef. in the house
and for damages for the forcible detention.
The Sheriff got the clothing and turned it
over to the fair plaintiff, but when it came
to question of damages she was not so
fortunate. Justice Groezinger decided
that DR.. Harding was perfectly justified
IN keeping the clothes, as Miss Deering
was in arrears Tor board and lodging, and
gave judgment for the defendant.

Declares There Is mo Argument
for Him or His but the
Lash"
SPIRITED REPLY TO WENDTE.
Father Yorke Discusses at Length the
Charges of Intolerance Against
His Church.

In reply to the last letter of H. w. Bow
man the Rev. Father Yorke writes as fol-
lows:
January "a.
To the Editor Of the CaIE-DEAR SIR: 1t is
with the greatest reluctance that | refer to a
letter which appears in your columns this
morning. That letter is signed H. w. Bow
man. Bowman is minister of the gospel and
spokesman for the American Protective Asso-
citation.
Concerning him I stated some time ago that
while was prepared TO answer argument with
argument was not prepared TO descend to OBJ
seenlty. The American people are not yet
ready 10 believe that our institutions must be
defended with filth.
Hence have paid no attention TO the doeu-
ments which have appeared over the signature
OF II. w. Bowman. The few arguments hid
den away IN them have been already used by
Others, and in answering Others | shall have
an opportunity to notice all that is worth no.
ticing. But no one can expect me to descend
TO the level of Bowman. My duty does not
compel me 10 go down into the sewers.
would have continued to ignore him, but
his letter this morning is so foul that I am
driven TO protest. l had hoped that even the
A. P. a. realized the unspeakable infamy of
its ISLANDERS on the sisters of the Catholic
church. I had hoped that this City would
never again be disgraeed by such a manifesto
ton or indecency. But the representatives of
bigotry learn nothing and are imperyious TO
shame.
Let Americans look on the following SEN
tence and learn what manner of men are they
who attack US: Chastity in bishop, priest or
nun means the license OF lust under the guise
OF celibate abstinence"
cannot trust myself 10 write about the au-
thor OF such a charge. Let ii stand in its shame
the condemnation OLA. P. A.-ism written by the
representative OF the A. p. a.
Ny duty is clear. There is only one course
for me to pursue. I cannot even appear to be
engaged in controversy with such all uI-
speakable wretch. l have been willing 10 ex-
plain the doctrines OF my church and TO de-
fend her teachings, but if this controversy is
10 be made the means OF slandering the BEST
the purest, the noblest women on Gods earth,
then stop ii mere and now.
The name of H. w. Bowman shall never
again, under any provocation, pass my pen.
For him and for his there is no argument but
the lash. Yours truly, Z. c. YORKE

BATTLE OF THE HORSES.
Cavalry Chargers Lined in Formal
Array Against Free Herd.

Cavalry Chargers Lined in Formal
Array Against Free Herd.
Just at sundown, and while we were at
supper, drove of wild horses numberi ing
eighty-eight suddenly emerged from
Thatcher's Pass and deployed on the level
ground of the valley. They emerged from
the pass in single file, led by spotted
stallion whose name reached almost to his
knees, and whose tail touched the ground
when he was at rest. Of the remainder of
the herd about thirty were fine animals.
Three or four were recognized as cavalry
march, and twice that number had collar
marks to prove that they had stampeded
from some immigrant train.
When clear of the pass they formed in
line and advanced upon us to within q
quarter of a mile. We had seyenty-fi
horses at the lariat-pins, anu for half an
hour we had all we could do to prevent a
stampede. Every animal seemed enraged
at the sight of the free herd, and the cap
tain's Kentucky stallion acted as if pos
sessed by fiend.
AT last we drove the free herd down the
valley, but our horses continued very rest
less all night. At dawn the wild horses
again appeared mile below us, and, on
the instant, every animal in camp STAN
peded. They broke through the free herd
in solid wedge. Then the two herds
turned facing each other a distance of
about three-quarterS of mile.
Then we witnessed something which
only cavalryman will credit. Our horses
fell into double line and dressed to the
right as perfectly as if trooper had oceu-
pied each saddle, and, while we looked,
the lines suddenly moved forward on a
charge. When they swept past us the
alignment was absolutely perfect, with
the captains horse on the right, and lead
ing by about twenty feet.
The line of wild horses bent and wayered
but did not break until struck. It was like
striking a drumhead with sledge- ham
mer. | believe that fully forty horses
went down under the shock, but all except
four were speedily on their feet again.
From this on it was melee, the
whole drove circling round, and each
playing such ferocity as to aston
ish US. The mob fought past us
down the valley and back, and right in
front of the camp the climax came. The
battle had been raging half an hour, when
three legs and bleeding from half dozen
wounds, and that seemed to take the pluck
out OF his followers. Some ran up the val
ley and some down, but of the eighty eight
only fiftv-seyen got away.
when the hottest of It was over we
dashed in and secured horse here and
there, and In this manner we finally got
hold OF the last one, which was the cap

E-STREET OUTRAGE,
Three Men Suspected of Being
Involved in 1t Under
Arrest.
Peculiar Circumstances Connecting
John McCrink With the Revolt
ing Cruelty to a Horse.

John McCrink, Frank Figineer and
Frank Hallisy, the former an ex-convict
and the two latter vagrants with unen-
viable regulations, were arrested last
evening and detained at the Southern
police station under suspicion OF being
implicated in the cruel butchery of horse
belonging to Expressman Thomas Har-
kins of 4S Jessie street last Monday
morning.
1t will be remem bered that on the morn
ing on which the fiendish crime was COM
mitted Harkins found tnat some one had
mutllated one of his animals in fearful
manner
The unfortunate beasts eyes had been
gouged out with piece of iron pipe, its
tanks and hips had been cruelty cut and
bruised, while even its tough hoofs had
been broken and battered out of shape.
Not content with their work, the wretches
hau tied a rope around the animals body
and another around its neck, and then
suspended it a few inches above the floor
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals was informed and the society's
special officer, George Delmar in a few
hours succeeded in obtaining enough IN
formation to justify HIM in arresting the
three men who are now prisoners.
Inc information at the specials COM
mand particularly pointed to McCrink,
who yesterday was discovered in the yard
In the rear of 153 Minna street, where he
had been stopping.
he endeayored to pass through the
mouse TO the street, presumably to make
his escape, but Officer Moriarity, who had
been stationed SO as to command view of
the premises, headed him off. Moriarity
was then Joined bv Officer Vidian and Nc
Crlnk was arrested. A charge of vagrancy
was placed against him and will be allowed
to stand until the officers have obtained
more evidence.
When questioned by the officers Nc
Crlnk denied having had any connection
Whatever with the crime. He was asked
What he was doing in the neighborhood of
Harklns barn on the morning the animal
was killed. He answered that he had
called at Harkins' house for the purpose
OF procuring hammer, which was given
him, but on being informed that a ham,
mer covered with blood had been found in
the barn he said that he did not get the
hammer, as it had been missed before he
called at the house. The other two pris-
oners were arrested by Officers Ryan and
1ulte, at the suggestion OF Special Delmar.

tain's. OF the seventy five only five had
escaped scot free. Every one of the others
had been bitten and kicked, and twelve of
them were SO crippled as to be worthless.
There were seven dead and thirty-six
crippled horses on that battlefield when
hostilities ceased, and of the tifty-seven
wild horses which made their escape many
were iimping badly.-A Cavalry Officer, IN

Denies That He Kissed Her.

Mrs. Anita Eggert says that she is not suing
Charles Shrakkart for breach of promise, and

Augustus Kallner, she was never alone with
him, and his opportunities for lovemaking
were extremely limited
