WITMARKIANA.
A feature in the production of Rankin and
Witmark's "Chaperones" is the introduction
of a musical number for mandolins, to be
played by sixteen chorus girls. T. P. Trina-
kus has been selected from a number of
teachers who were interviewed for the pur-
pose of coaching and teaching those who
will participate in this novelty. His expe-
rience and past work is sponsor for the re-
sults looked for as the time for the initial
performance is but a few weeks off.
Apropos to the immense success and inci-
dentally the phenomenal sales of Howard
Whitney's two instrumental "hits," "The
Mosquitos' Parade" and "Frog Puddles," it
would be interesting to know that the latest
effort of this brilliant composer is entitled
"The Donkey's Laugh." It is already in the
hands of their publishers, M. Witmark &
Sons.
Master Willie Howard, the popular boy
soprano of New York, has included in his
"repertoire, Will Anderson's "Sadie, Say You
Won't Say Nay" and Norton and Casey's
big hit, "Sing Me a Song of the South."
He will feature these two songs on the Keith
circuit shortly.
On Oct. 21st the Pavilion in Piccadilly,
West London, was the scene of the first
cakewalk in England by one hundred pro-
fessionals. This was brought about under
the auspices of the Water Rats, and man-
Aged by Frank Glenister. Barney Fagan
arranged the production, and the music u^ed
was exclusively from the catalogue of M.
Witmark & Sons.
NEVADA WILL SING THE OLD SONGS.
Mme. Emma Nevada, the American prima
donna, who arrived last week from Europe
for a concert tour of the United States, said
in course of a talk regarding her plans:
"During my tour here, I shall sing some of
the old songs and especially the old Italian
songs. I hear that they are making some
effort to stop the 'ragtime' melodies. Now,
I hope they will not, for I think them very
tuneful and pleasing.
" I remmber that one time, when I was
down South, I was asked to sing "Sally in
Our Alley.' I could not respond, for I did
not know the piece. On my tour this time,
I trust my repertoire will be large enough,
So that no one will be disappointed.
"What have I been doing since I was here?
For one item, I sang at The Hague last
winter. It was a delightful season. I prob-
ably shall go back to Holland in the near
future. I am to make a lengthy tour of this
country. We shall arrange a number of morn-
ing performances in the larger cities. The
idea is popular in Europe, and I think it
will eventually become so here. Another
feature will be that of dressing in the cos-
tume of the character of the opera from
which I select my program number."
Mme. Nevada will be accompanied in her
tour by Senor Pablo Cassals, a Spanish 'cello
player; M. Leon M. Moreau, pianist and
Composer, and M. Maquarre, flutist.
