THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW

A CLEVER SCHEME.
There was much trouble in Twenty-eighth
street on Monday, and also a good deal of
amusement. Mr. Bert Morphy, who has re-
cently become the professional manager of
the E. T. Paull Music Co., was trying over
a few songs. Anyone who has heard Mr.
Morphy singing in the Madison Square Gar-
den, where he has quite drowned a full
brass band, can imagine what he would sound
like in a small, "quiet street" street, such as
"Publishers' Row." As it was, the people
on the trolley cars on Broadway turned their
heads to catch the melodious sounds, and
it delayed some of the elevated trains on
Sixth avenue, and the publishers—well, we
won't mention what they said. Sufficient to
say, there was a considerable crowd outside
of 46 West Twenty-eighth street, and pro-
fessional people poured into the offices of the
E. T. Paull Music Co. to obtain these songs
which had so strenuously been brought to
their notice. Hert Morphy kept this up for
about an hour, and afterwards one could al-
most hear the proverbial pin drop, such was
the stillness. It was the best advertising
scheme worked for some time. This is only
one -of the many ways that Mr. Morphy is
showing his usefulness to E. T. Paull.
HILL & SPAULDING, PERHAPS.
It is more than likely that George L.
Spaulding will enter the music publishing
business again in the near future. He left
New York en Tuesday evening for Chi-
cago, where he will confer with H. A. Hill,
late of Hill, Horwitz & Bowers, who has
been managing his business alone since the
dissolution of that firm. Should these gen-
tlemen come to satisfactory arrangements,
Mr. Spaulding will assume the management
of Mr. Hill's business. George L. Spauld-
ing has not had the best of luck of late
years. At the time he was in partnership
with W. B. Gray, they possessed one of
the best popular music publishing firms in
America. No man knows more about this
business than Mr. Spaulding, and with his
experience combined with Mr. Hill's busi-
ness ability, this proposed partnership should
be of much mutual benefit.
A GOOD TEAM.
The success of Bowman and Johns' coon
song, "Go 'Way Back and Sit Down" has
been phenomenal. It has been universally
taken up by all the prominent performers
in this line of business. Ernest Hogan has
found it to be one of the best songs he has
ever used. Johnson and Dean, Grant and
Grant, Artie Hall, and a number of others
are using it regularly. The latest team to
appreciate this fact are Inman and Walker,
two young ladies who are very popular in
the profession. They grace the columns of
this week's Review, and will doubtless be
recognized by many of our readers as "that
clever team they saw the other day."
THE JOHN CHURCH CO.
A representative of The Review had a
pleasant chat with William Maxwell of the
New York branch of the John Church Co.
the other day. Among other things he said
was that "The Invincible Eagle" had proved
a large seller, and was steadily increasing its
popularity. Among the successful new pub-
lications are "The Stars of Night are Thine,"
by D. J. Donahoe and Frederic Vinal; a
new number of the wild-flower series by M.
H. Cochrane entitled "Daisy Waltz" ; an ar-
rangement of a beautiful old Irish ballad by
C. Milligan Fox, "My Love Nell," which has
been sung a great deal, and with much suc-
cess by David Bispham; two new songs
from the pen of C. Chaminade, " 'Twas an
April Day" and "Colette." The latteT is a
beautiful song with words from the French
by P. Barbier, translated by R. H. Elkin.

THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
John Prindle Scott has written a song, "The
Secret."
Recent Church publications in bound form
are a Chopin Album which contains thirty-
two pieces—waltzes, mazurkas, nocturnes,
etc., a wonderful production, for one dollar,
and "Pedal Studies for the Or^an" by Anton
Andree, revised by J. Lewis Browne. The
John Church Co. expect the biggest season in
their history the coming winter. They have
under consideration manuscripts of every
well-known American composer.
A NEW J
We draw the attention of our readers to
the advertisement of Joseph J. Kaiser, 40
West 28th street, Xevv York,music puYisher.
Mr. Kaiser has recently started in this busi-
ness, having opened spacious offices on the
fourth floor (elevator in building) at the
above address. He will be glad to meet the
profession, and they would do well to look
him up. His catalogue is small, but what it
lacks in quantity it certainly makes up in

quality. His best song is "As Oft as the
Pitcher Goes to the Well," by P. Campbell.
This is a splendid song of its kind, and pos-
sesses a distinct merit, that should bring en-
cores to t i e singer. "Flirting Near the Sea
Shore" has already been taken up by several
burlesque companies. It has a good swing-
ing chorus, and should become popular.
Jesse Campbell, who has been with the E. T.
Paull Music Co. for some time has left that
firm, and has assumed the managership of the
professional department for Mr. Kaiser.
This firm will publish a song by Andrew B.
Sterling and Jesse Campbell, entitled "When
the Boys Come Marching Home.' Jos. J.
Kaiser is a composer of much ability himself,
having written several waltzes, marches, etc.
A GREAT FAVORITE.
Franklyn Wallace, the well-known tenor.
has been singing since the beginning of the
season in the various Parks around New
York. He is a great favorite with the large
audiences which collect to partake in this

pleasant evening's amusement. Mr. Wal-
lace has been singing several of the Howley,
Haviland & Dresser publications. The ones
he scores with the most are: "The Blue Sky
Has Turned to Gray," "Mr. Volunteer"
and "Good-bye, Dolly Gray." The latter
is one of the most popular songs of the day,
and Mr. Wallace is obliged to sing it over
many times before his hearers are satisfied.
CASEY WAS BEHINDHAND.
Frank D. Pease, representing Fitzgibbon,
Butler & Co., brought a complaint against
Thomas J. Casey, orchestra leader, for not
keeping his contract to supply scores for
forty-two instruments, which were to be
used by Sousa's Band the other evening at
Manhattan Beach. The piece was "The
Holy Cross," by Miss Hattie Starr, and
when she went down by the sea to hear the
strains of this beautiful music, she was dis-
appointed. On inquiring of Mr. Sousa the
reason why, she was informed that Mr.
Casey had only sent down nineteen orches-
trations, and this accounted for his appear-
ance at the Harlem Police Court last week.
Casey promised to settle matters and the case
was dismissed.
THE ROOF-GARDENER SAYS:
Too much cannot be said of Wm. Jerome
and Eugene Black's clever song, "When Mr.
Shakespeare Comes to Town." It is undoubt-
edly the most popular song used on any roof
garden in New York. It is sung by Ha"
Bulger at the Cherry Blossom Grove. Of
course, a great deal of credit is due to him
for the clever manner in which he sings
it; but, he says himself, it is the best song
he has ever sung. His other song, "Don't
Put Me Off at Buffalo Any More," goes
well. Another clever act is that given by
William Gould; he always scores heavily
with "Mary Green." The next song in
popularity on the roof is "Go 'Way Back
and Sit Down." This is generally to be
heard both at the New York and at Ham-
merstein's. One other good song is "Love
Me, Lize," which always receives several
encores. These are the songs that stand out
prominently. At the same time there are
many good songs about; in fact, in tone and
merit, they arc above the songs that were
published a year ago.
T. B. Harms & Co. have recently published
a song by Boyle Woolfolk, entitled "There
Ain't No Use to Grieve About Things
Done Gone By." After the many coon
songs that have been published lately, it is
quite refreshing to run up against one that
possesses the merit that this number of Mr.
Woolfolk's does. The words are funny,
and the music is really melodious. It is
being featured by Ernest Hogan, John H.
King, of West's minstrels, and Arthur Rig-
by, with much success.
