REVIEW
"REQUIESCAT IN PACE."
How Holzmann's Latest March, "Spirit of Inde-
pendence," Served as a Dirge.
An interesting little story is being passed around
the band and orchestra department at the Remick
headquarters regarding the use of Abe Holzmann's
latest march, "Spirit of Independence," at a funeral
in Summit, N. J., where the music was supplied
by a band from Orange. The librarian of the
band was late in arriving at the point of meeting,
and when he reached there discovered that he had
forgotten the funeral music and had in his bag
only some pieces used at a county fair the week
before. The leader of the band grabbed the music
of "The Spirit of Independence," and instructing
his men to play the music in adagio time and read
it in E flat, started to lead the procession from the
church. The first part of the march, rendered in
a thoroughly somber and mournful manner, and
repeated over and over again, made a distinct im-

Chicago covering a period of ten days or so, dur-

Kornheiser states that with everything considered
the location on 37th street, a little west of Broad-
way, New York, looks pretty good to him. In-
cidentally he found conditions in the West, es-
pecially as they affect the Feist prints, thoroughly
satisfying.

VERDICT AGAINST HEIN.
In the suit of Sylvio Hein, composer of the
score of "Judy Forgot," against Lee Shubert and
Daniel B. Arthur to secure $2,000 in royalties al-
leged to be due from that production, which was
tried before Justice Gavegan in the Supreme
Court on Monday, the jury returned a sealed ver-
dict in favor of the defendant. The court took
a motion for a new trial under advisement.
Among new issues by M. Witmark & Sons, a de-
lightful number, entitled "Mother Dear," written
and composed by Benjamin Jefferson, is fast be-
coming a great favorite with concert and recital
smgers.
