D. L. White.
1. A tuneful and pleasing composition from
the pen of this world-wide favorite. The ar-
rangement is simple, consequently it is within
the scope of the home musician who loves a
good waltz.
2. The merits of this march can best be esti-
mated when its martial strains helped Mr.
Greenhalge to the Gubernatorial chair.
3. 4, 5. Three very interesting studies. Mr.
Mullen has succeeded in investing his numbers
with a tone color that gives each a national
characteristic, and shows a wide versatility in
composition. They are effectively arranged and
not over difficult.
6. This is a " fantastic dance " for four hands.
The composer is an old favorite and he main-
tains his reputation for originality and merit.
7. A graceful gem for church or reed organ.
It opens with an andante movement leading up
to the theme, '' Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour.''
The arrangement is excellent.
8. A good vigorous march. It is evident that
the martial spirit has enabled Mr. White to add
another to his many successful compositions.
It has a handsomely illustrated cover page of
the " boys in blue. "

catching song in waltz tempo that is sure to be
popular. The words are by the composer. 5.
Another of D. I v . White's serio-comics which is
up to the average. 6. Mr. St. George evidently
got his inspiration for this song from that
classic, "Annie Rooney." 7, 8. Two English
reprints. 7. Is a sentimental Irish ballad with
waltz refrain, and 8 is of a class of "comic"
which our legislators should put a tariff on.
Mr. McGlennon always writes pleasing melody,
and these are no exception. 9. A good comic
song that has music and words to commend it.
