article it "will be recognized that his trip is
one of the largest ever taken by a music pub-

LARGEST ORDER OF THIS KIND ON RECORD.
Quite a record has been established by the
John Church Co. in that they have been
obliged to get out a special edition of Verdi's
"Requiem" to supply an order for seven thou-
sand copies of the above work which has been
given to the firm by W. R. Chapman, who
might be described as "the great Maine con-
ductor." This large order is to meet the
demands for the coming Maine musical fes-
tivals. In addition to the above order, the
John Church Co. are getting out a special
book of choruses of the different operas for
the same purpose.

TWO COMING SONG WRITERS.
Toland and Meloy are probably the young-
est team of song writers in the business to-
day. They are hard workers and, unlike a
great many others of the profession, who,
as soon as they conceive an idea, are on their
way to a publisher with it, these boys only
present a song after they have spent much
time improving it, and getting the best out
of it. Toland who writes the words tells his
stories in a simple pleasing manner, and they
are clean, and Meloy has a dainty strain of
music in him. One of their best composi-
