CITY AND DISTRICT.
Mr.. Higginbottom's Recital.

The pianola recital given by Mr.. H. Hig-
ginbottom. last night was attended by an
audience which crowded Knabe Hall and
gave evidence of its approval by strong ap-
plause- The pianolist was assisted by Mrs,
William L. Wilson, soprano, whose dra-
matte voice was heard to advantage in
Hawley's Because I Love You," Nevin's
Rosary and a happily sung encore. Per-
haps the most noteworthy instrumental
number was Schubert's "Erl King" Mr..
Higginbottom compelling the theme to sing
above the crashing chords and the all
pervading tremOlo with artistic effect. The
tonal delicacy and the chromatic felicity of
the instrument were shown in a pizzfcati
and waltz from Sylvia. Several aeoIan
numbers were rendered. One of the num-
bers on the program was a pianola solo by
MIR. HfgginbOttom. with a song accompani-
ment by Mrs. Wilson. At the conclusion
OF the concert there was cordial inter-
change of greetings between the artists
and their friends.

FREAK ADVERTISING G.
REPORT OF e COMMITTEE ON
DRAFT OF PROPOSED BILL.
Opinion Expressed That Measure is
Not Broad Enough in
It's Terms.

The District Commissioners still have un-
der consideration 7the question as to the
best means of suppressing freak adver-
Using IN tie city streets. The city solicitor
recently submitted the draft of q police
! regulation on the subject, forbidding the
appearance on the street Of "any sign, ad-
Vertlsing device or other object calculated
TO tr1ghten horses" This was turned over
10 the committee on the revision Of the po-
lice regulations, Messrs. Francis Nye and
Daniel Curry, who have reported to the
commissioners that they do not consider
the draft submitted by the solicitor to be
broad enough In its terms
The committee declares as 1t understands
the matter, 1t is the intention of the Com
mlssloners to go further than to merely
exclude from the streets such objects as
would frighten horses. 1t is a well-known
fact that the sidewalks are often used by
persons wearing the heads Of animals and
various other equally Objectionable disfig-
urements, calculated to shock the senses.
Inc committee thinks that the phrase "cal-
culated to frighten horses Is open to seri-
GUS opJectlon, because of the fact that un-
less horses are actually frightened great
dlnlcuity Will be experienced in proving
that the ob1ect was calculated to frighten
horses, and testimony on the subject would
be largely matter of opinion.
The Committees View.
The committee believes that any regula-
ton that may be promulgated on this sub
Ject should exclude from the street all
purely advertising devices. The authority
of the Commissioners to do this lies in the
fact that the persons against whom the
regulation IS directed are using and oc-
cupylng public space for private purposes,
and no one has a valid claim to such use
of the streets. The following draft of
regulation, to be known as section 2 Of ar
ticle 10 of the police regulations, has been
submitted to the Commissioners by the
committee for their considerations:
mo person, animal or vehicle on which
Is displayed or attached any sign, adver-
tisement or other device for the sole pur-
pose Of advertising shall be permitted on
any public street, avenue, highway or al
ley in the District Of Columbia: Provided
that this regulation shall not apply to sec
ton of article 10 Of the police regua-
tions of the District
Section of article 10 Of the police regu-
lations. which is excepted in the above
draft, relates to regular street parades, for
which permission has been granted by the
Commissioners. 1t Is not the intention of
the Commissioners to deprive the children
of the delights of circus or minstrel
parade.
