THAT Maurice Richmond, of the Enterprise
Music Supply Co., of New York, started out
Monday night for a week's trip through New
England in the interests of his firm.
THAT Harry Von Tilzer may very possibly
make them all sit up. There was a time when
some of the boys putting things over today used
to run errands for Harry. Now he is back in
the game.
THAT all the many writers of "Preparedness"
should back up their work by marching in the
Citizens' Preparedness Parade on May 13.
THAT, considering the number of songs offered,
there should be quite a regiment of them in line.
THAT the few bars of Irish melody in Chas. K.
Harris' "All I Want Is a Cottage, Some Roses and
You," appears to make a strong appeal to the
audiences.
THAT Rcmick's "Memories" continues to be one
of the strong ballad numbers of the season, despite
plenty of competition.
THAT, following the example of the ordinary
song writers, the composers of light opera, to the
number of a score or more, have formed an organ-
ization of their own.

favorable one from a business standpoint. The
Albert Spalding, noted American violinist, has authors of the song are David Young, who
the following story to tell of how he came to wrote the lyrics, and Charles Warfield, who
compose his darkey melody "Alabama." It appears composed the music. The number is of the
that Mr. Spalding was in a Paris cafe when a "blues" variety and represents to the minds of
couple of sportily dressed American negroes came many in the music publishing business the very
in. From their conversation Mr. Spalding gathered best production that the fad for "blues" has pro-

have the sole rights to the number for the United
States and Canada, were unable to print it here,
and were compelled to charge high prices for
imported piano and orchestral parts. Chappell
& Co., however, have just received a cable
from Paris to the effect that satisfactory
arrangements have now been made and
that the "Sphinx" waltz may now be printed
here. The result of the lower price thus possible
should be a great increase in the popularity of
the number. A song arrangement of the waltz
under the title of "Oh You Haunting Waltz,"
with words by Thomas Edgelow, is now on the
press.
