1. A very pleasing vocal duet by a rising
English composer. The words are by Robt.
Batton. Key of A sharp. 4. An unusually
pretty song by the same composer. Wilfred
Mills' sentimental verse about the absent ones
from '' far-famed Connemara '' is set to pleasing
melody, which is effectively arranged. Key of
C, for low voice.
2. A melodious and well-written ballad with
waltz refrain. The verse is from the pen of Al-
fred Rivers.
3. A pretty song and chorus. The words, by
the composer, are full of tender home sentiment.

1. A charming etude which should prove ef-
fective as a solo or teaching piece. The arrange-
ment is simple but effective.
2. An excellent example of D. L. White's
ability as a composer. Should prove a favorite.
3. 4, 5. Three recent additions to a collection
of moderately easy classical pieces entitled
"Classic Leaves," which are edited by Digby
Trappe. They are of special value to teacher
and pupil owing to the accompanying para-
graphs as to their special characteristics and the
proper mode of playing these pieces.
We are also in receipt of '' Continental
Guards,"March, Chandler ; " Fanfare," Rondo,
Bohm ; "Angelus," Massenet, which are ar-
ranged for four hands. A charming collection
of gems by Wieniawski, Goddard, Wakefield and
Wilson, fingered and revised for violin and piano
by Ambrose Davenport, have also reached our
desk. These pieces will certainly meet with favor
from lovers of well-selected arrangements for
these two instruments.

No. 1 is for soprano, (B flat) and the melody and
arrangement shows the musician. The words are
by Owen Meredith. No. 2 is equally meritorious,
and the verse by that charming writer, Mar-
garet E. Sangster, is particularly pretty. The
song is in E flat, for contralto.
3. As the name implies, this song is after the
Spanish. It is a very creditable work and
should find a place in the repertory of first-class
singers. The words are in English and Ger-
man and it is published for soprano in A minor,
and alto In F minor.

well known to need commendatory mention.

1. Old Glory.
Jos. I. C. Clarke.
2. Stuttering Song.
L. F. Gottschalk.
1. This is a patriotic chant with chorus in
honor of the "Star Spangled Banner." The
words are by the well-known and popular writer
and editor, Jos. I. C. Clarke. The air, by W.
S. Clarke, has been scored for piano by Harriet
C. Ronda. There is only one criticism to make
of her work, and that is a tendency to over-
elaboration, particularly in the chorus. A song
of this character, which is destined to win a
large share of popularity, should be simple and
effective in arrangement. Taken all in all the
song should help stimulate any latent patriot-
ism and engender respect for the flag of our com'
mon country.
2. This humorous and original conceit has
achieved a marked success as sung by Walter
Jones in that fun-making production, " 1492,''
and it is bound to win no small share of notice
for its author and publishers. The words are
by L. B. Pemberton and L,. F. Gottschalk.

It is admitted by all that no piano ever put upon the
market has met with such success as THE STERLING
and thousands will testify to their superiority of work-
manship and durability. Why ? Because they are made
just as perfect as a piano can be made.
THE STERLING ORGAN has always taken the lead, and
the improvements made this year puts it far ahead oi
all otherf. B8T Send for Catalogue.

age of its class.

Renwar Borsey.
2. Alone.
Walter A. Phillips.
Two high class songs which deserve warm
commendation. In No. 1 Mr. Borsey has dis-
played marked skill by his musical setting of
Miss McCloud's pretty verse. Mr. Phillip's
t>ong (No. 2) is a very creditable and well writ-
ten work. The many changes in tempo might,
however, have been avoided. The verse is by
Robt. J. Burdette.
