THE MUSIC TRADE
is Ellis Ehpraim's dainty composition
"Contrary Mary," which is expected to
rival even the celebrated "Sammy."
Not in many seasons, it is said, has an
instrumental member found such instan-
taneous favor as has "Laughing Water,"
a characteristic march by Fred Hager.
Scarcely second to this in popularity is the
"Sun Dance," a novelty in music. These
two pieces are featured on every program
offered by Sousa and his famous band.
As the audience leaves Dalv's Theatre
nightly at the conclusion of the immensely
successful "Three Little Maids," every
one seems to hum unconsciously the mel-
ody of "The Girl You Love," by Paul A.
Rubens. It is said that nothing in the
entire comedy seems to impress the specta-
tors so strongly as this clever song—noth-
ing equals it in popularity.
REVIEW
receiving many encores were: "Some
Beauiful Day, "Old Glory," "The Lily's
Promenade," "Sweetheart Mine," "My
Dear Old Jersey Home," "The Lobster
and the Lady," "Rosie Lee," "The Gig-
gling Girl," "Dreaming," and "Looey!
Looey!"
Reginald De Koven's waltz
movement "Reve d'Amour" in the finale
was particularly appreciated and was re-
demanded. Jos. W. Stern & Co. are the
publishers.
ONE OF OUR POPULAR COMEDIANS.
In presenting this week a picture of
Frank Daniels, the well known and equal-
ly well liked comedian, it may be said that
his work has delighted theatre-goers in
whatever role he has ever appeared, and
who has this year a starring vehicle emin-
37
"The Royal Crocodile," "A Wise Old Owl"
and "Que Voulez Vous." These songs were
the first night hits of the opening season of
"Nancy Brown" at Bridgeport, Conn., last
week.
Will Redmond sang "Lincoln, Grant and
Lee" at a dinner given to the Cincinnati
Aerie, F. O. E., at the Hotel Belleclaire,
New York, during convention week. This
song made the hit of the evening, and the
singer had to respond to four encores. It is
Paul Dresser's latest march song.
