OpeCldl u Ie
NEW YORK, Feb. 1-Some horses
like elephants have exceedingly long
memories as Virginia Earle, actress,
found out yesterday to her embarrass-
ment.
Miss Earle held a rehearsal of her
vaudeville sketch at the Victoria the
ater in the morning, and at 10 o'clock
left, accompanied by George May,
leader of the orchestra. AS she stepped
out of the playhouse she noticed a
white horse attached to cab No. 16l
Patting it one the nose she remarked
that it looked like Betty, which she
used to ride in Sergeant Kitty"
When Miss Earle and Mr. May had
reached Fortieth street and Broadway,
Frank Masterson Il cab driver, yelled
at them and demanded to know by what
hocus pocus the young woman had in
'duced his horse. to follow her down
the street. .r r.. ~

claimed the actress in surprise.

son. Hes right there in the gutter
with one wheel on the sidewalk, and if
L hadn't run lively there's no knowing
what might have happened.
II didn't do a thing TO him." pro-
tested Miss Earle.
Didn't feed the nag sugar." inquired
the cabman suspiciously.
AN she did was pat it on the nose
and say it reminded her of the horse
she used to ride in Sergeant Kitty,

Inferior Life Preservers

The witness said that he found the
cork in life preservers washed ashore
to have crumbled. He was of the
opinion, he said, that the cork had
been pressed, but had fallen apart
after being, soaked in the water and
buffeted in the breakers.

A cork life presarver was shown the
witness and he said it was of better

SENATE PASSES MANY BILLS
Gives Lengthy Consideration to the
Shipping Measure
B." Associated Pres,

g. Associated PTeSS
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The senate
today passed thirty or forty miscel-
laneous bills and gave several hours
time to the consideration of the ship
ping bill. Among the bills passed was
one providing for a delegate in con-
gress from Alaska and number pro-
viding for lighthouses, revenue cutters
and fish culture stations. The greater
part of the time devoted to the shipping
bill was consumed by Mr.. Penrose in
set speech in support of the measure.
The senate today passed a bill rati-
flying the treaty with the lower Brule
Sioux Indians of South Dakota. Other
bills were passed as follows:
Establishing fog signal station at
Ediz Hook light station, Washington.
Establishing a lighthouse and fog
signal station ON Red Rock, San Fran
cisco bay
Establishing a light and fog signal on
Carquinez strait, California.
Establishing a light and fog signal
station near Point Cadello, California,
and providing for a keepers dwelling
at Point Bonita.
Authorizing the construction of ten
der for the lighthouse service in
Hawaii. :.
Granting to the state of California
per cent of the net proceeds of the
sale of public lands in that state
Repeating the law limiting to 1886
the time for the presentation of claims
for additional bounties granted to SOL
dierS by the act of July 2S, 1856.
Authorizing the erection of a monu-
ment in Washington to the memory OF
Commodore John Barry.
Authorizing the construction of one
o. more fish culture stations OH Puget
sound.
Establishing a fog signal at the en-
trance at Humboldt bay, California.
Authorizing the election of delegate
III congress from Alaska.
Prohibiting vessels from anchoring so
as to obstruct range lights established
by the lighthouse board.
At 3 O'Clock the ship subsidy bill was
taken up. Mr.. Bacon said that he
would be inclined to support the ship
ping bill if its operations were con-
fined to granting aid in the way of
liberal mail subsidies to steamship
lines between ports of the United
States and other ports with which there
IS no direct communications. such for
instance as the ports of South America.
Mr.. Spooner suggested that the bill
would afford encouragement to only
large concerns, for the reason that un-
DER it's terms vessels would receive
subsidies for only ten years. Such yes
sells would then come into competition
with subsidized ships. with the newt
able result, as he thought. of forcing
their sale to the larger companies OPP
Grating subsidized vessels.
Mr. Gallinger ACKNOWLEDGED the force
of the suggestion and intimated will
ingness to amend the bill so as to meet
the objection.
Mr. Penrose made a speech in sup
port of the bill.
Mr.. Carter Interrupted Mr.. Penrose
with a brief speech i'm which he ex-
pressed strong support of the bill, eX-
pressing the opinion that it would be
ipdorsed by the entire Rocky mountain
region.
Mr.. Penrose concluded at 4:O5 p IN.
and the senate went into executive ses-
sion, adjourning at AIS p. m. until to-
morrow.

GARDENER SHOOTS
HOSPITAL MAN
PORTER TRYING TO EVICT HIM
is WOUNDED
ARRAY Took Place in Servants Lodge
Of Sisters Institution and There
Were but Two Other
Witnesses

Because Joe Smith, porter at the Sis
ters' hospital, ordered Andrew Hortu-
laney out of q room in the servants
lodge last evening shortly before II
o'clock, the offended man shot the
porter in the right side and seriously
injured him.
All that saved Smiths life was the
glancing of the bullet off the rib.
From what could be learned from
William News and Charles Pankoka,
tne only other occupants of the room,
Hortulaney was looking for trouble.
Hortulaney has been employed at the
hospital as gardner but left Wednes-
day noon and told his fellow workmen
that he had found another position.
Though but little information could
be obtained, 1t was discovered that the
gardener had returned Wednesday even
ing and had some trouble with News.
There is good foundation, the police
believe, for the theory that there may
be hidden motive for the attempt to
take Smiths life
"starts Something"
Just after Smith and his companions
had retired last evening Hortulaney en-
tered. He walked over to News bed
and told him he had a notion to shoot
him. An argument followed and
though both men were talking loud the
ulscuSSlon uld not seem to be very
heated.
Smiths bed was located between
those of his two companions and becom-
ing tired of the discussion the porter
requested Hortulaney to vacate the
room. At this the former gardener be-
came angry. He dared Smith out of
bed and after repeating the demand the
porter complied with the request.
Hardly had Smith taken three steps
when Hortulaney fired. The ball en-
tered the right side about on the
fourth rib gancing around for the dis
tance of eight inches and lodged just
under the skin. Smith retained his
feet and his companions offered no at
tempt to catch the would-be murderer
Nearly an hour later the word of the
affair reached the central police station
Detectives McCann and Zeigler were
detailed on the case. The officers made
a thorough search of the premises and
the surrounding country but could find
no trace of Hortulaney.
The fugitive is described as wearing
dark clothes, black derby hat, hair
pompadoup, small brown mustache, five
feet four inches tall, and about 80 years
of age.
Both he and Smith had been en-
ployed at the hospital about four
months. So far as could be learned the
men have never had any trouble
