Musical Comedy with Blanche Ring in the

(Special to The Review.)
Chicago, 111., Nov. 8, 1911.
Blanche Ring, in the successful musical comedy,
"The Wall Street Girl," written expressly for her
by Margaret Mayo and Edgar Selwyn, with lyrics
by Hapgood Burt and music by Karl Hoschna, :s
announced to appear in this city on November 12
for an indefinite run. "The Wall Street Girl" is
one of the newest and most successful musical
plays of the current season. Several of the songs
are already very popular. "I Want a Regular
Man" is the "hit" of the performance, although
several other numbers give it a close run. These
are "In Bad Man's Land," "In Old Wall Street,"
"When Love Flies in the Window," and "How
To Bring Up a Girl." Another good number is
"Men Are All Alike," while "On the Quiet," "The

vairous clients some interesting reading matter re-
garding that gentleman for use in their reading
columns. The article, which was well written, said
in part:
"No name is better known or more highly
valued in the world of so-called 'popular music'
than that of Edgar Selden, writer of that supreme
success 'All That I Ask of You Is Love'—a ballad
which, though only of comparatively recent publi-
cation, is to-day sung and played in every part of
the civilized globe, and which is of such admitted
worth that it is already regarded as a classic that
will endure for limitless time to come. Mr. Selden
is of likable disposition, thoughtful and unassum-
ing, with a kindly word for all. Seemingly his
gospel is that of consideration and helpfulness for
those with whom he comes in contact."
LISZT SONGS IN DEMAND.
Thirty Songs by Liszt is a timely addition to
Ditson's Musicians' Library. They are selected,
edited and annotated by Dr. Carl Ambruster, the
eminent pianist, conductor, and lecturer, who is at
present musical adviser of the London County
Council. Other new volumes in the Ditson series
are: Selected Piano Compositions of Schubert,
edited by August Spanuth; "One Hundred Folk-
Songs of All Nations," edited by Granville Ban-
tock, and Krehbiel's selection of Songs from the
Operas, for baritone and bass voices.
