NEW ACTS AT THE CIRCUS.
''Thc Limit" This Years New Thriller,
Earning Its Name.

judging by the crowd that damned
Madison Square Garden last night, the circus
has lost none Of its popularity. Every seat
in the big arena was taken and many were
turned away-4, 900 according to the earnest
and truthful Tody Hamilton.
In the show there are many new acts and
some that past generations AVE seen, even
to the performers. The old fashioned
clowns with their old fashioned stunts and
some that are new are In greater force than
ever. The clown who is left dancing with
the upper part of the female clown while
the rest of her walks away and the clown
who gets his head shot of and saunters
l~eisurely of got their laughs.
Instead Of one Jap walking n rope from
the ring to the second balcony there are
three of them in different parts otthe Gar
den. The dancing horses seem to be more
musical than ever, especially Graceful
ridden by Ray Thompson. 1t was a ques-
ton last night whether most Of the APP
plause was for the horse or the clever riding
Of Thompson.
Then there is the thriller of last year
the dip of Death" 1t leaves the same
number of shuddering and shivering women,
who perk up a second later when the lady
driver with two horses beats h man who
drives the four horse chariot. The horse
rae es over, then comes the sensation of
the show-"The Limit"
A pleasant faced young woman with a
fetching smile rides around the ring in an
automobile. Several attendants are tinker
ing at the bottom of Me incline from a
platform near the top of the Garden. There
Is a small blue wheeled auto on the plat
form.
There Is a good sized space from the foot
OF the ihcline-twenty-eight feet, accord
ing to the official measurenent-to a raised
runway.
From the automobile that has been
circling the Garden jumps Mile. Octayia
La Tour. 1t is pretty quiet then. She
starts walking up the incline, hand over
hand on a rope. Half way to the top she
stops and waves her hands to the house.
In a second she is In the auto, which is
about big enough to bold her, and strapped
in. She laughs and jokes with the attend
ants. 4This isn't serious business with me"
she seems to say.
Down below a young man is sounding
carefully a drum, inside Of which Is the
mechanism on which much of the stunt
depends. He is satisfied and steps aside.
The young woman In the car at the top
Of the Garden grips handle bars on the
side Of the machine. She is ready and
che signal is given. The car starts, slowly
at first, and then whizes down the incline.
At the bottom the mechanism in the drum
gives it a boost. 1t jumps into the air,
turns a complete somersault and lands on
it's wheels on the runway. The thud
doesn't sound pleasant, and there is a grip
at your throat as her hair flies loose and
her hat Is tossed in the air, But in a second
she is released and standing on the Garden
floor smiling.

his exposure as a bigamist. No resolution
commendatory of his services to the bank
wa adopted. The directors will hold an

remained a mystery yesterday but most
of his friends believed he had left Brooklyn

of his life in some foreign country.

exile was also the impression in some quar-
ters. There was a general belief that Kiley

Colt, said yesterday:
I'VE have had enough Of this thing. All
l can say is to repeat what / said yesterday.
We do not know where Mr.. Kiley is and
what is more we do not care. We will have
nothing further to say on the subject

Ign show that Kiley, in transfers of prop
erty made in the last five or six years, de-
soribed himself not only as q bachelor
but as q "widower."
1t was disclosed yesterday that Mrs.
Flora Colt had two matrimonial experiences
before she went on a trip to the West with
Kiley in the fall of 1908 and was married to
him in Indiana. Her first husband was
George G. Tousey, from whom a couple of
years after their marriage she got q divorce

DR.. j. A. Moore, who lives in an apart
ment house at 571 Park avenue, made a
complaint to Magistrate Moss in the York
vile police court yesterday that his rest
was disturbed by the "Chugl Chugl Chug!'
of the pump that raised water to the tank
in the house. He had obtained a summons
for John Quinn, the engineer, and Quinn
appeared with Mr.. Tfets, the owner Of the
house, and the latter's lawyer.
aThe noise made by the pump at night is
so wearing that | am afraid my health will
break down. said the doctor when the
case was called. "My mother is at home
now on the verge of nervous prostration.
Something should be done to stop the
noise"
sThe pump must do its work, otherwise
no tenants would remain in the house.
There must be water, and to get it we are
obliged to use the pump" responded the
owner.
The complainant said that he was dis
turbed so much by the noise that he went
to the Board Of Health to see, about it. He
was told that according TO law the pump
might Nn from O O'Clock in the morning

ACTOR ORLENEFF ARRESTED.
RUSSIAN PLAYER ACCUSED OF
THE LARCENY orr $3.50.

Joseph GOldstein, Hired as Treasurer Of
the Company says He Put Up 81 500
Cash Security and That Orlcncn Failed
10 Make Good When They Parted.
Paul Orleneff, the young Russian actor
whose work in Tcherikoii's Chosen People"
and other Russian plays won praise from
the critics, was locked up at Police Head
quarters last night charged with the larceny
of 81 500. The complainant is Joseph Gold
stein Of 1853 Forsyth street, formerly treas
urer of the st. Petersburg Dramatic Com
pany, of which Orleneff was the head.
Orleneff would not talk about his arrest
but Goldstein explained matters. He said
that when Orleneff came to this country
he hired Goldstein as treasurer OF the COM
pany. Goldstein was to ave charge of the
box Office and was required to give a 1850
bond. Goldstein, according to his story,
got the money together and began work.
At that time Orleneff; and his company
were giving plays In Russian at a little hall
In East Third street. While the critics
praised it, money didn't pour into the box
office.
Goldstein's salary was to have been, he
Gays, $50 o week.. but after a few weeks
Orleneff told him, he says, that things were
gong DaQly ana tnaU ne WOulQ nave 10 TAKE
what he could get. Some weeks the salary
shrunk to $40, and then at last 1t was nothing
at all. Orleneff apparently had a way Of
inspiring his aides with his own hopeful
spirit.
Goldstein began his work in October.
and when January came he resigned. He
put In a demand for the money he had given
as q bond along with the resignation, but
Orlenef, he says, put him of with the
promise Of a brighter day to come.
Society got a short 0rleneff craze and
things did begin to look bri ghter. Charles
Frohman lent the Criterion Theatre for a
series Of matinees and Goldstein thought
1t a good time to ask again for his money.
Then Orleneff went to Chicago and Bos-
ton, but favorable notices are not legal
tender and Goldstein was again asked to
wait. His patience was entirely gone now
and he secured a warrant, issued by Magis-
trate Wahle, charging Orlenef with grand
larceny.
Orlenef came TO this country a year ago,
He had been famous in Moscow, where
he played The Son Of Ivan the Terrible"
for 500 nights. After a time the plays he
gave we're forbidden by the censor and
Orleneff went first to London and then to
New York. He arrived here penniless
and without friends.
