NEVADA HAS A RAG-TIME DITTY.
So impressed is Mme. Nevada, the opera
singer, with "rag-time" songs that she has
already learned one composed for her, enti-
tled "Since Malinda Joined the Army." An-
other is now being written by Williams and
Walker, the comedians.
Two years ago Mme. Nevada first heard
Bert Williams sing one of his "rag-time"
songs in Detroit, and then and there she be-
came a lover of such melodies. Accompan-
ied by a party, she occupied a box by spec-
ial invitation. Before she departed for Eu-
rope she asked Messrs. Williams and Walk-
er if they could compose a song for her, with
just a touch of "rag-time" in it. "Since
Malinda Joined the Army" is the result of
their labors.
The song is written about a colored wo-
man who is attracted by the Salvation Army
singing on a street corner.
"There is nothing vulgar—as some peo-
ple call it—about the air of the song we sent
Mme. Nevada," Comedian Williams says.
"It runs along very smoothly, but still it is
a rag-time song: I think she is very much
pleased with it."
STARR PIANOS
Embody generous artistic values and have
*

the dealers to handle.
THE BOGART APPRECIATED.
Chatting with E. B. Bogart, of E. B. Bo-
gart & Co., the well-known Harlem manu-
facturers, this week, he spoke enthusiastic-
ally about business conditions. "Not only
are we busy," said Mr. Bogart, "but what
is better still, we find that the intrinsic mer-
its of our pianos are steadily being better
appreciated. A short time since we found
it necessary in consequence of the value we
are embodying in our instruments to raise
the price slightly, and although some of our
customers demurred at the start yet we have
received letters from them stating that there
are such values both architecturally and mu-
sically in the Bogart piano that they more
than willingly pay our prices. You know
it is pleasing to receive letters of this kind,
particularly when so many cheap pianos are
being called for. We are closing a very
satisfactory year and believe that 1902 will
be even better for the Bogart piano, because
there has been an unceasing demand for the
Bogart among first-class dealers who com-
prehend what a piano is.
