SINGING THE WITMARK SONGS.
Spencer Kelly, who has been singing "My
Elinore," since Standish and Silberburg gave
him the manuscript copy, repeated his former
success with this beautiful ballad, in the
West. Mr. Kelly is also singing a sacred
song, "The Voice of Jehovah," by the same
authors, which promises to be as popular as
any song in this class. Alfred Dorin, of the
Andalusians, is meeting with great success
in his rendition of "The Voice of Jehovah."
Mr. Dorin also sings "Answer Me, Sweet-
heart, Do," and "My Elinore," in an effective
manner. Those three songs are from the
pens of Standish & Silberburg.
In the extensive repertoire of Louise
Dresser, will be found "I'm Thinkin' 'Bout
Yer Honey," "Just My Little Yaller Boy and
Me," "In Our Home, Sweet Home," "The
Moon Baby," and "When Chloe Sings a
Song." All of these she renders in her usu-
ally artistic style and easily captures her au-
diences. Marie Beaugarde, who has made
such a good impression at the various London
Music Halls, is using "Youse Am De Sweet-
est Coon Dat's Born."
A WITMARK PROGRAM.
At the opening concert at Midland Beach,
the band, under the able direction of Louis
Dittmar, rendered twelve numbers in the
afternoon, and twelve in the evening concert.
This made twenty-four different numbers, all
of which were exclusively from the cata-
logue of Mr. Witmark & Sons.
where," and the music fine. Paul Dresser
is to be congratulated on his latest effort.
A pretty little children's dance is "Dance of
the Frowsy-Heads," by Pauline B. Story.
Another instrumental number is "Gossip,"
Two-Step by Bert Lesser. Two coon songs
are "Don't You Never Take No Ten Cent
Drink On Me," by John Queen and Hughie
Cannon; and "Ain't Dat A Shame," by John
Queen and Walter Wilson. Another Pan-
American song is "Pan, Pan, Pan," by Will
D. Cobb and Gus Edwards. These songs are
getting a trifle wearisome; there is hardly
a publishing house in America that hasn't
got an "Exposition" song of some sort.
Those clever young writers, Harry J. Breen
and T. Mayo Geary have a new song out,
"Caroline;" the words are about the same as
usual, but the melody is bright and catchy.
Mr. Geary has quite a lot of originality in
him; he will make a name for himself one of
these days.
Howley, Haviland and Dresser, are adver-
tising "Four of a Kind," published by the
House on Broadway. They are "Sweet An-
nie Moore," "Mamie," "Mary Green," and
"Good-Bye, Dolly Grey;" but why leave out
"Mr. Shakespeare," it certainly is the hit of
the town. This firm have had a wonderful
run of success since "The Blue and The
Grev," and they are keeping it up.

It isn't a matter of how cheap sheet-

BREEN AND GEARY.
Harry J. Breen and T. Mayo Geary are
probably the youngest successful song writ-
ers of the present dy. That they are young,
we know, and that they are successful is
proven by the fact that Howley, Haviland
& Dresser publish the greater number of
their compositions. This firm do not buy
rubbish, and, as many a composer has re-
marked, "I would rather place my songs with
H.H.& D.than anyone." Mr. Geary is an actor
of some note. He played in "Shore Acres"
for two seasons, and in the "Still Alarm"
Co.; he has also had six years on the vaude-
SON GS.

FROM H 7 ~ H . & D.
Paul Dresser has two new compositions
out this month, "Mr. Volunteer," or "You
Don't Belong to the Regulars, You're Just
A Volunteer," is the name of one of them;
it is a typical patriotic song of the Dresser
type, and has met with some approval on the
vaudeville stage. The other is a sacred song,
which shows Mr. Dresser's musical versa-
tility. The words are really beautiful, the
title of the song is "In The Great Some-
The firm of Dave Fitzgibbon, Butler &
Co. have received personal letters from some
of our best known singers and players
throughout the country, saying many compli-
mentary things about their publications, and
giving instances of the success they have met
with when using these songs. It is aston-
ishing how this new firm have made such
progress within the short period that they
have been in business. Yet why be aston-
ished? Their judgment has been good in
the selection of their compositions. Dave
Fitzgibbon's knowledge of the "profession"
is boundless.
They are "hustlers," and
therein lies the secret of their phenomenal
success. Their latest song "Lizzie," prom-
ises to be one of the coining season's "hits."
It will be used by fourteen burlesque shows,
and many prominent artists.
"Lizzie" is
"It."

ville stage, and has been most successful.
Mr. Geary went into partnership with Mr.
Breen some two years ago, and they have
risen steadily to the front. Their first big
hit was 'Tin the Warmest Member in the
Land." This was heard all over the coun-
try and was featured by Williams and Walk-
er throughout one season. Such artistes
as Anna Held and Josephine Sabel used it.
Last season they scored with "The Rag-
time Hymn," which was one of H. H. & D.'s
big sellers. Another favorite was "A Pipe
Dream." Both these songs were used by
Lew Dockstader, Clifford and Huth, Genaro
and Bailey, Carrie Scott, Billy B. Van, Mil-
ton Aborn, Lew Hawkins, etc., etc. For the
coming season they have a batch of new ones
which promise well. "Caroline," which is re-
ally an original song, will provea "hit." "Talk,
Talk, Talk," has been written specially for
Lew Dockstader, who was so taken with
"The Rag-time Hymn." They have written
special songs for Ray Bailey, Greg. Patti,
Peter F. Dailey, Billy B. Van and others.

MAKING GOOD PROGRESS.
The firm of Helf & Falke, who opened
business about two months ago, have been
holding their own during the warm weather.
There is no better known man in the profes-
sion than Charlie Falke, and situated as the
office is at 103 East Fourteenth street, New
York, all his friends, on the vaudeville stage,
drop in to see him, and incidentally try over
a few of his songs. Mr. Falke also runs a
splendid show on Captain's Pier, at Bath
Beach, which has become very popular during
the last two seasons, and here Charlie Falke,
as he is generally called, gives his illustrated
song act, which is considered one of the best
in the country. He is singing at present
"The Rose and The Thorn," and "She's
Kentucky's Fairest Daughter;" both these
are published by Helf & Falke. Their other

THREE GREAT MARCHES.
The Peerless Publishing Co. after a year's
existence, were recently compelled to take
larger and more convenient offices.
This
speaks for itself. Their business has steadily
increased from the time they started. By
moving to "publishers' row," they have se-
cured a better control of the profession.
Singers and orchestra leaders had been urg-
ing this move for some time.
The excellent catalogue had brought the
Peerless Pub. Co. to the notice of musicians
who went out of their way to secure some
of the publications for their programs. The
advantages gained by taking larger and more
convenient quarters, can easily be seen by the
increase in demand for their songs and in-
strumental numbers.
"The Sportsman,"
and "Pan-American" Marches have proven
big sellers, the latter, which is by W. A. Co-
rey, has been played far more frequently at
the Exposition than several of its rivals
under a similar name. In fact both numbers
are being featured by the bands at Buffalo,
and also here in New York, at the Park Con-
certs.
Another instrumental "hit" published by
this firm, is "The Chimes of Freedom,"
March; the bell solo in the trio, gives it an
attraction that few marches possess. It is
easily to be seen that the Peerless Publishing
Co. is to prove an important factor in the
music business next season, and since mov-
ing, the success already attained will be in-
creased many times.
GAGEL BROS. HITS.
"The Hymn You Loved the Best," is a
great hit as rendered by George H. Carr, of
Carr and Jordan, whose singing is always
a pleasure to listen to. Mr. Carr says this
is the best song of its kind since "The Vol-
unteer Organist." Gagel Brothers publish
it.
"Why Did We Drift Apart" is a song that
is meeting with much success in the hands
of Reidy and Currier, who are featuring it
at every performance. Published by Gagel
Brothers.

publications are, "I Was Certainly Dream-
ing," and "My Little Girl In White." With
the exception of the latter, all these songs are
by Willie Wildwave. The latter comes from
the combined pens of Andrew B. Sterling
and Charles Falke. This is a beautiful song.
Floriane has been singing it around New
\ork, and has met with success everywhere
with it. The policy of this firm will be to
publish few and good songs; they have four
or five that will be published early in the
fall, and they will be heard from.
