THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
Olitb the music Publishers
[HORWITZ'S TRIBUTE TO THE PRESIDENT.
A touching tribute has been paid to the late
President by Charles Horwitz, of the well-
known team of Horwitz and Bowers. They
recently wrote a beautiful song entitled "Sor-
row," and Mr. Horwitz has added a verse
apropos of the nation's great calamity. It
might be said without exaggeration that he
has never written a more beautiful poem
in his life than that touching on the Presi-
dent's last hours. These words, combined
with Frederick Bowers' lovely melody, will
go down in history.
quite a demand for "The Jolly New Yorker"
two-step, by A. J. Weidt; the "Story Teller"
waltzes, by Van L. Larrand, and the "Con-
fetti" polka, by John Carver Alden. These
compositions were credited, through a mis-
take last week, to Mr. Wilder. He is not
the composer, but rather the seller of these
works. Mr. Wilder, however, has won wide
fame as the composer of such brilliant and
catchy two-steps as "The Sportsman," the
"Gibson" and the "Fleur de Lis," which are
winning a great vogue with orchestras and
piano players everywhere.
OVERHEARD AT H., H. & D.
Peter F. Dailey will feature "I Hates to
Get Up Early in the Morn," by Cannon and
Queen; "Nothin' but a Coon," by Abbott
and Jerome; and "The Lady with the Dia-
mond in her Tooth," by Queen and Jerome,
in his forthcoming production, "Champagne
Charlie."
Al. Lawrence will sing "I Wonder if it's
Springtime Where I Long to Be," by Ben
Jerome, with the Trocadero Burlesquers this
season.
Jacobs and Lowry report big success with
the following songs in the "Topsy-Turvy"
Co.;' "Mary Green," "When Mr. Shake-
speare Comes to Town," "Mr. Volunteer,"
"Ain't That a Shame" and "Good-bye, Dolly
Gray." "The "Indian" Oriental dance, which
is a feature with this show, was written ex-
pressly for it by Ben. M. Jerome. Among
the many professionals using "I Wonder if
its Springtime Where I Long to Be" may be
mentioned Manuel Romaine, with West's Min-
strels, Myrtle Tressider, the Mozart Com-
edy Quartette, Joseph Webb, Mamie Con-
way, Blanche Latell, John P. Rogers and
Blanche Washburn.
ROGER HARDING'S LAST SONG.
Rather a touching story has just come out
concerning the late Roger Harding, who died
about two weeks ago. About six months ago
this young composer wrote a religious song
for Miss Emma Cams, entitled "That Grand
Amen," and on Cady's recommendation
Meyer Cohen bought the song for Charles
K. Harris. It proved to be the last compo-
sition that poor Harding ever wrote, and the
words are like an echo of his own life. The
melody is beautiful and impressive. The
WILDERS "WINNERS."

Music Rooms, Montpelier, Vt., whose skill
as a composer and director is becoming wide-
ly recognized, has built up one of the finest
music businesses in his State. He is having

song will shortly be published and promises
to become popular with lovers of high-class
music.
Emma Cams will sing it for the first time
in public to-morrow night at the New York
Theatre, and with her beautiful baritone voice
will doubtless receive much applause. Her
voice improves all the time; in fact, the per-
formance given by Miss Carus is one of the
most attractive on the variety stage.
" T H E MESSENGER BOY" A HIT.
"The Messenger Boy," one of the London
Gaiety Theatre productions, opened success-
fully at Daly's Theatre in this city last Mon-
day night. The inimitable James T. Powers
was seen at his best in the title role. May
Robson was well received, and the company
throughout was good.
The music is exceedingly pretty and several
numbers will shortly be whistled and sung
all over town. "Maizie" is going to be the
"hit" of the show. Another song entitled
' H a s Anyone Seen my Cat?" was most amus-
ing. It is safe to predict a long run for "The
Messenger Boy." The score is published by
Boosey & Co.
