COMPOSIHONS RECEIVED
In Answer to a Prize Offer From Hinds & Noble,
the Great College Song House.
About the middle of August Hinds &
Noble, 31 West 15th street, New York, con-
ceded headquarters for college songs and
music, sent out fourteen poems, with
patriotic themes, to the younger American
composers, and in connection therewith,
prizes were offered for the best compo-
sitions. A standard of merit was estab-
lished and the right was reserved to reject
any or all music proffered. In response to
this competitive offer the firm have received
seventy compositions, which are now in the
hands of the judges, and results will be an-
nounced in the near future. The response
was a hearty one, and without doubt will
result in adding some first-class patriotic
songs to the not lengthy list of those al-
ready in existence.

WM. LORAlNE'S COMPOSITIONS.
If this composer had never written any-
thing save his Oriental intermezzos, he
would still have attained an enviable place
among modern musicians. In this pecu-

Boston, Mass., Oct. 2j, 1903.
G. W. Setchell, the prominent Boston pub-
lisher of popular music, has returned from an
extended Western trip. The size of the or-
ders which have reached the home office from
him while he was away is very flattering to
the value of his catalogue.
Emma Carus, the only vaudeville singer
using Mr. Setchell's hit, "Down Where the
Congo Flows," by Shackford and Cooke,
with a specially painted scene and a little
pickanniny girl seated on a moon, took New
York by storm recently. So did Jimmy DOQ-
ley at Keith's Theater, Boston, recently,
while Margaret Drew received flattering no-
tices from the Detroit (Mich.) papers, and
May Mooney, Nellie V. Parker, Sandy Chap-
man and other leading professionals who are
singing this taking song have all achieved an
unqualified success with it.
needs no comment at this late day, but it is
worthy of remark that the longer this pro-
duction is before the public the more popu-
lar its individual numbers have become.
"We're True to The College Days," "I Like
You Lil For Fair," and "My Emmaleen/
have become the standard favorites every-
where and the best things about these song
successes is that the people do not seem to
tire of their catchy melodies.
Mr. Loraine has just written a new musi-
cal setting for the second act of "Peggy
From Paris," the dialogue has been fresh-
ened up with a lot of new "Adeisms" and
it promises a long and continued success
in its new guise. Mr. Loraine's publishers,
M. Witmark & Sons, have now in press
some new and striking compositions of
this prolific and versatile composer.
MUSICAL COMEDIES DISCUSSED
SHACKFORD HAS THE STERN LINE.
Boston, Mass., Oct. 27, 1903.
Charles Shackford, the well-known music
publisher and composer of this city, is again
representing the entire catalogue of Jos. W.
Stern & Co. in Boston. He reports that Jos.
W. Stern & Co.'s prints are having an excep-
tionally large sale—not only their popular line
of sheet music, but their production numbers
as well.
The latter include "The Office Boy," in
which Frank Daniels, now filling an engage-
ment at the Colonial Theatre, this city, is
starring; "The Red Feather," "Winsome
Winnie," "The Girl From Dixie," "The
Mocking Bird" and others.

"Panatella," he created a new model which
has been imitated with more or less suc-
cess by composers all over the country.
But Mr. Loraine's most important work
which has almost overshadowed his fugi-
tive instrumental successes, is the music
for Geo. Ade's clever comedy "Peggy From
Paris." The success of this musical play
Musical comedies from the publisher's
standpoint are not always productive of
rich harvests as investments. Considerable
capital is required to acquire the publish-
ing rights to start with, not to mention the
cost of printing, etc. A publisher who
fights shy of comic opera ventures, having
learned a lesson by experience, said to The
Review on Tuesday:
"I prefer to stick to sheet music, and
those who are hunting the bubble reputa-
tion may tackle musical comedies. The
cost of each production to the publisher
in printing charges, arranging, etc., is at
