Chas. Klein, the music by Reginald De
Koven, with lyrics by Chas. Emerson
Cook. One of the principal musical num-
bers looked forward to is "The Garden of
Dreams."
Florence Ziegfeld, Jr., has spared no
amount of effort or expense in the scenery,
appointments and costumes of the produc-
tion, and has surrounded his star with ex-
cellent support backed by a well schooled
chorus of a hundred singers. The Ziegfeld
Opera Co. will visit Washington (the home
of the composer) and Philadelphia, before
reaching New York, at which place they
open the new Lyric Theatre for its metro-
politan run.

Miss Katharine Trayer, entitled, "Ma

LILLIAN RUSSELL'S NEW SONGS.
The two songs sung by Lillian Russell
in the new Weber & Fields production
"Whoop-Dee-Doo," are from the pens of
Cole & Johnson Bros., entitled: "The Maid
of Timbuctoo," and "The Flowers of Dixie-
land," with lyric of the latter by Edgar
Smith.
The songs are backed by a simple and
pretty chorus of fourteen and were "put

Miss Russell's voice enhances/the melody.
The refrain of "The Maid of Timbuctoo,"
will soon be heard everywhere. The verses
are catchy:
"The Maid of Timbuctoo,
She knew just what to do
When suitors came to woo
Her for her hand;
She shyly dropped her eyes,
And heaved a sea of sighs,
Yet she was very wise,
You understand!"

for Louis H. Ross, music publisher, grant-
ed leave to-day to sell to the highest bid-
der, Mr. Ross's right, title and interest in
the plates for printing music and copy-
rights formerly in his possession. There
are several hundred copyrights and a large
number of plates included in the lot to be
sold. They may or may not be disposed
of at auction; at all events no date has yet
been set for the sale.
"It is to laugh!"—is the trite saying long
ago made universally popular by that
quaintly clever—or shall we say cleverly
quaint?—Dutch comedian, Louis Mann.
The words were put in his mouth by the
authors of "The Girl From Paris," and
their apt application to the current form
of stage entertainment cannot be question-
ed at this time. The Proctor shows, in par-
ticular, seem nowadays to carry out the
dictum of other years, for in all the Proc-
tor programmes, whether in New York, Al-
bany, Newark or Montreal, the spirit of
laughter is omnipresent. It is a good sign,
too, that the Proctor audiences prefer to
laugh, rather than cry. The average thea-
tergoer likes to leave his worries behind
him when he passes through theater por-
tals, and the Proctor doors seldom close
upon sober faces.
