PHILADELPHIA'S LATEST HITS.
SEVENTY COMPOSITIONS
[Special to The Review.]
Received by Hinds & Noble in Their Competitive

. Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. n , 1903.
The latest sheet music hit of the season,
published by the Cliff-Harris Music Com-
pany of Camden, N. J., is Sig. Giorgia Min-
oliti's new caprice "The Gibson Girl
Dance." The Blasius Co., this city, are
the distributors of the music of this house,
and no composition in their very large
stock is such a ready seller. They have
also an excellent seller in "My Alabama
Sue," written by Hallback and Zew, and
made popular here by the "Smart Set"
Company, and there has been a big demand
here this week for "Nancy Brown" music,
Marie Cahill being- very popular in this
city, and her "Congo Love Song" written
by Cole and Johnson, and "June" are
whistled generally on the street, and have
been in great demand at all the stores.
Philadelphia is the first city to hear Anna
Held's new comic opera "Mam'zelle Na-
poleon-," and musically it is one of the
brightest of the recent musical produc-
tions,^ and contains many popular arias
which are going to be largely sung during
the winter.
"The Silver Slipper" and
"The Runaways" are also here this week,
and music from these musical plays is sell-
ing well.
