In the World of Music Publishing
success with a unique musical comedy en-
titled "Why Dr. G. Kyll Will Hide," and
they have recently completed a musical piece
full of sparkling lines and tuneful music
which is shortly to be produced in New York
by a prominent manager.
THE GENERAL OUTLOOK.
A few of the publishers are in the thick
of great business, but a majority are in the
usual lull pending the close of the theatrical
season. Road companies are playing clos-
ing dates and will be returning to New
York shortly, when the routine of taking up
the rehearsing of new parts and songs will
be in full swing. Preparations to this end
have been completed, and everything is in
readiness to go on with this work, when
everybody will be getting busy again.
DEVRIES' COMPOSITIONS.
Herman Devries, the well-known com-
poser and singer who was for so long a
prominent member of Grau's forces at the
Metropolitan Opera House, has just signed
a renewal of his contract as instructor at
the Chicago Musical College. A long ex-
perience, combined with the most thorough
understanding of his art, makes him inval-
uable in developing the ability of his pupils
to the best results obtainable. His composi-
tions have long been favorites at the various
musical colleges, as numbers eminently
suited to students because of the invariable
refinement and charm of treatment which
characterizes them. "Bonjour Suzon,""Were
I the Supreme" ("Si J'Etais Dieu"), and the
charming Schumann-Heink waltz are special
favorites. His brilliant instrumental num-
bers are also used extensively as mediums
for instruction.
HARRIS' NEW YORK QUARTERS.
Early. in the week Chas. K. Harris re-
moved from 51 West Twenty-eighth street to
a commodious and well-arranged floor at
31 West Thirty-first street, New York.
About 4,000 square feet of space are occu-
pied, providing nine well-arranged rooms
for teaching, an elegant studio for Mr. Har-
ris, with private offices for Robert Gran and
Maurice Boom; the latter gentleman is man-
ager of twenty railroad parks and is accord-
ingly considerable of a factor in the busi-
ness. In the rear of the main floor a well-
lighted, roomy stock department is located;
the main business office and reception room,
which will be tastefully and luxuriously fur-
nished, being in front, where Manager Meyer
Cohen and his executive staff may be found.
Access to these very desirable quarters is
by electric elevator, for which artists and
newspaper men who have business with the
management are profoundly thankful. It is
to be hoped when the other publishing houses
move into their new premises similar agree-
able accommodations will be included in the
outfit.
Mr. Harris will abandon his Milwaukee
establishment on May 1, when he comes to
New York, which will hereafter be his per-
manent home.
ANOTHER COLLEGE SONG.
Another new Yale song, appearing in
Hinds & Noble's new edition of "Songs of
All Colleges," and which is sure to become
immensely popular is "Polly; or, Eyes of
Old Yale Blue." It is composed by David
Stanley Smith, the writer of all the Yale bi-
centennial songs, and from a musical stand-
point this is one of the best in the collection.
BLANCHE RING.

Farrell and the music by Theodore F. Morse.

popular songs, continues to supply the Broad-
way productions with successful interpolated
