with Abe Holzmann's new march song, "The
Hand That Rocks The Cradle Rules The
World."
two consecutive weeks at the well-known
Stiult'haker Theatre, in Chicago, caused con-
siderable surprise and comment, for it was
known that the production warranted a more
protracted stay than even the record it had
made in the way of a "run." Independent of
this, however, the No. 2 company was
doing such phenomenal business on their
route, that offers from the East for the
"original" company were entertained and
bookings easily arranged.
Its success in the East has been even
greater, for it has quite captured Boston; in
fact, in the annals of musical comedy at the
Hub, no show has ever achieved the fame
now given to "King Dodo." Its writers
may feel justly proud of what they have
done ,for in this line of work they are
second to none in America. They will, doubt- ,
less, go on and write many others as good
as "The Burgomaster" and "King Dodo."
We came across the following story in a
London paper recently, which shows how
popular the song mentioned must be on the
other side:

A vicar's wife is calling on an aged
parishoner, and the latter asks her:
"And do they 'ave music in 'eaven, mum?"
"So we are taught to believe," answered
the vicar's wife.
"Well, I do 'ope they'll play the 'Oney-
suckle and the Bee'," replied the old lady.

We cannot but admire Mr. Rosenfeld's
article on rag-time songs in last Sunday's
Telegraph, it was all so true and to the
point. The simile he made between the two
songs, "Only This Day Last Year," and
"Down At The Country Fair," was very
clever. He is to be congratulated on having
added a very readable department to this
worth}- paper.
Irene Mackev, formerly of the Irene
Mackey Trio, is undergoing a classical
training for her voice under the tutelage of
Signor Tagleianna. She has developed a
contralto of pure and pronounced register,
rivalling, it is said, that of her sister, Julia
Mackev.
Bert Morphy, the only man extant pos-
sessing a voice sufficiently monstrous to
drown the sonorousness of a brass band, has
been engaged by a Western publisher to
feature the Howard A. Hill publications, in-
cluding Horwitz and Bowers' graphic song,
"Wait. ' Morphy will appear for a three
weeks' term in the Forepaugh and Sells Cir-
cus, which opens at the Madison Square
Garden shortlv.
Scouton's new March, "Give the Counter-
sign" and •'Nourhalma" waltzes, by Bar-
nard, have made a decided hit among Chicago
orchestras.
Liberati, the famous cornetist and band-
master, has written a new march, "Our
American Belles," which is published by
Lvon & Healv.
George Ade and A. G. Wathall's musical
comedy, "The Sultan of Sulu," which was
produced this week in Chicago, scored an em-
phatic success. Nothing in years was re-
ceived with more enthusiasm. The musical
score is published by Witmark.
Josephine Baird, with the Delia Fox Com-
pany, is singing "Where the Mississippi
Flows."
The "'Sleeping lleauty and the Beast" are
using Dave Reed, Jr.'s "Mv 1'rincess Zulu
Lulu."
Lew Dockstader, of Primrose and Dock-
stader Minstrels, is singing "Katy Did."
Jenny Eddy is using "Katy Did."
W. H. Maxwell, of Maxwell and Dudley,
is using "The Brotherhood of Man."
Troubadour Four arc using "Way Down
in Old Indiana."
Duke and Harris are using "The llrother-
hood of Man."
Katie Allen is using a medley of coon songs
by Howley, Haviland & Dresser.
