WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.—The Post- office Department has begun a crusade against the printing of objectionable advertisements and storles in news- papers and periodicals throughout the country. The action is based on.See- tion 3893 of the Revised Statutes, which imposes a fine of not exceeding $5000 or imprisonment for not over five years, or both, for any person depositing in the mails or aiding In circulating through the mails, any obscene print, pamphlet, ete. It is proposed to amend this law to include vulgar advertise- ments and other printed matter. Un- der the new policy a number of papers containing questionable matters have been thrown out of the mails under the telegraphic orders to the postmast- ers, and a campaign will be waged against objectionable medical adver- tisements which are being widely pub-l lished. _—————— If the guests are a little late in start- ing home they will notice that the host has to call the hostess from the kitchen ave advertised them at a higher price We would like to show you what these pianos Oakland Address, 1353 Broadway. POLICE WOULD PREVENT YOUNG CORBETT'S GAME Champion Invites Weber and Flelds Troupe to Witness Contest Between Bulldog and Badger. When Young Corbett attempted to show the fair ones of the Weber and Fields troupe a few pointers on the real ‘»!hlng in burlesque, he managed to get | his training quarters “pinched,” and | the affair looked for a while as if it | might develop into a tragedy of the 'hna\'y order. | Corbett invited several of the mem- bers of the troupe to visit his training | quarters at midnight Saturday, with | the understanding that war would be waged between an untamed badger and | a ferocious bulldog. Incidentally some- one tipped the whole thing off to the | police. At last, when the time was ripe, and | everything in readiness for the fray, the police circled down from the sand | dunes and, with a mad war whoop, | charged the quarters of the champion. | The situation, for a moment, was somewhat on the Waterloo type, but { when it was discovered that there was no badger within miles of the camp and that Corbett was just having a little joke on the dear girls, the police took to the tall pines.

Yet here the youth of the Kopta quartet was most in evidence, the want of that ut- ter singleness of feeling that is the es- sence of ensemble playing, the resuit only of long asscciation. Yet again | there is evidence of the existence of this instinct to an unusual degree in the Kopta quartet. Most valuable in this regard, too, is Mrs. Oscar Mans- feldt's work at the plano. Both by tem- perament and education Mrs. Mans- feldt has shown herself fitted for ensemble work. Her rhythmic and dynamic sympathy is almost uner- ring, and she has, too, exceptional tonal | and technical qualifications. Yester- day’s piano number was the Schumann plano quintet, op. 44, with its loveliest of slow movements. This was given | with exquisite sympathy by the play- | ers. They were less successful—tech- | nically—in the exacting scherzo, but | gave the finale with convincing spirit | and freedom. A pleasant adjunct of the programme was Mrs. Lillie Birmingham's group of songs, that included two by Albert El- kus, the young Californian composer.
