Some Reasons Why That Long Looked For
Fishing Fest Did Not Materialize.
J. Bodewalt Lampe, the well-known composer
and arranger, has been looking forward to a three
weeks' vacation in the White Mountains, and since
January has been assembling a fishing outfit out-
rivaling anything ever possessed by himself or
any other disciple of Isaac Walton. He also had
secured the privilege of fishing in the private lake
of the White Mountain Fishing Club, accorded
him by the president of that select coterie of ama-
teur fishermen. Last Saturday he hied himself
away from the Remick arranging studios, leaving
same in charge of Mr. Collinge, and after a long
and tedious journey arrived at the clubhouse early
Sunday morning just in time to see a large load
of fish being taken away by a farmer for fertiliz-
ing purposes. He also learned from the farmer
that the lake had been drained on Friday to rid it
of fungus plants which had been poisoning the fish.
Anyone desiring a first class complete fishing out-
fit can obtain same, express prepaid, by writing to
J. Bodewalt Lampe, care of the Wiltshire, Atlantic
City.
CHAS. K. HARRIS GLEANINGS.
Chas. K. Harris, the inimitable ballad composer,
is back again at his offices, at Broadway and 47th
street, New York, after enjoying a brief respite
from notes, musical and commercial, at the Catskill
Mountains.
Meyer Cohen, the "radiumatic" manager of the
Harris interests, says that they have received a
telegram from Los Angeles stating that "Louisiana
Lou" opened as a tremendous success, and it looks
as if it will play to full capacity during the run
there. It has been sung to full houses at San
Francisco for three weeks.
"Hello! New York Town," has been selected as
the special feature song in all the Mutt and Jeff
companies. This song looks as if it is going to be
a big success.
LOVE OF SONG PROVES COSTLY.
"WAS IT THUNDER?" asked the
startled crowd at the beach.
Yes, it WAS thunder, but not
from the heavens. It was
merely the uncontrollable
enthusiasm of the daily
throngs at HENDERSON'S,
CONEY ISLAND, when Belle
Baker, the inimitable, sang
"WHEN I GET YOU
ALONE TONIGHT"
This song is the act-maker
for the stage and the
record-breaker for your
business.

Admiration for the song, "You Gotta Quit
Kickin' My Dog Aroun'," cost Joseph Chmelik, of
2426 South Homan avenue, a fine of $10 and costs
yesterday. Frank Holub, proprietor of a music
store, testified that he had detected Chmelik steal-
ing a phonograph record of the song. "I heard
they sang that song at the Democratic convention,
and as the convention is over I thought it was no
good," Chmelik told Municipal Judge Walker.
HELPING THE ERA OF GOOD FEELING.
Recently when the writer was lunching with a
Southerner he remarked at the enthusiastic way
the North were taking to songs featuring Southern
environs. One in particular that is making a hit
is " 'Way Down South," published by the enter-
prising Tell Taylor, of New York and Chicago.
Mr. Taylor, by the way, has been spending the past
ten weeks in the Middle West, a part of the time
sojourning at Findlay, O., the city of his boyhood
days.

MEYER COHEN, Mgr.
A collection containing
one hundred and thirty-
five of the old, familiar
and favorite songs which
seem to be in themselves a
part of American home life.
The varied contents includ-
ing songs of sacred, senti-
mental, humorous, planta-
tion, pathetic and patriotic
character, include every
really "popular" home song,
and the folio is one which
cannot be spared in any
home where music plays a
part in recreative hours.

Edgar F. Bittner, of "Did You Note It?" fame
is "sore." He says everybody is taking a vacation
but him, and he wants to swap a job with the next
man that is about leaving for snail trapping, mos-
quito shooting, bull fishing or hen coaxing. Speak
up, some one, and give Friend Bittner a show at
the sunshine.
Did some one ask, "Where is Bittner?" "Yes, I
did," chirped some one. "I'm a stranger in town."
"I thought so," was the response, "or you wouldn't
ask the question, 'Where is Bittner?' Did you note
that?"

One of those real catchy coon songs, with the
spirit of the lazy Southern "pussons" expressed in
its every note and word, where the strumming of
the banjo is the dominating chord, is "In Banjo
