Century Edition
Lives Up to Reputation Gained During Long
Tour.
"The Wall Street Girl," with Blanche Ring in
the stellar role of "Jimmy," opened up for a run
at the George M. Cohan Theater on Monday even-
ing of this week and both the star and the produc-
tion lived up to the excellent reputation they made
in the numerous other cities in which they appeared
before coming to Broadway. The book of the
play, which is in three acts, is by Margaret Mayo
and Edgar Selwyn, the lyrics by Hapgood Burt
and the music by Karl Hoschna and others.
Among the hits of the production are "I Should
Have Been Born a Boy" and "I Want a Regular
Man," sung by Miss Ring, and "Every Day," by
Miss Ring and William P. Carlton. M. Witmark
& Sons publish the music.

Conference Between Charles K. Harris and
Representative of the Harold Rossiter
Music Co. Results in Plates of Jos. E. How-
ard's Song Being Turned Over to the Former.
An illustration of the fact that it is not always
necessary to refer to the courts to settle trade
disputes is afforded in the Harris-Rossiter matter,
which recently came to light. The Harold Rossiter
Music Co., Chicago, recently announced the publi-
cation of a song, "Waltz Me Around and Around
in the Old Ball Room," by Joseph E. Howard, and
Chas. K. Harris immediately entered a protest on
the ground that a contract he had with Mr. How-
ard to publish all the latter's songs still had sev-
eral years to run.
After a conference between the representative
oi the Rossiter Co. and Mr. Harris the correctness
of the latter's position in the matter was quickly
recognized, and the result was that all the plates
and printed copies of the song on hand reached
Mr. Harris' office from Chicago on Tuesday of this
week, the same being accompanied by a cordial
letter from the Rossiter house.

New Comic Opera Makes Excellent Impression
in Brussels—To Come to United States.
Whitney Warner Co.
According to a dispatch to the New York World
tin Brussels Opera House was crowded at the first
production of the new opera "La Farce d'un
Cuvier 1 ' (The Tale of a Tub). The piece is in
two acts, and time is the end of the fifteenth
century.
The music is decidedly of the new school, with
charmingly quaint old French melodies. The com-
poser is M. G. Dupont, who wrote "La Glu." The
orchestration is excessively rich, and seems a little
inappropriate for such a light and amusing plot.
The opera was specially writt.n for Signor Pon-
zio, an Italian baritone, and he was greatly ap-
plauded as the poor husband. The work was a
success.
"The Tale of ia Tub" goes to London for the
season and thence to New York.

The HIT Indicator points
to
"YOUR DADDY DID THE SAME
THING FIFTY YEARS AGO."
The acts using the song
emphasize that the "indi-
cator" points in the right
direction.
At the "Fifth Avenue"
last week, NELLIE NICHOLS
proved to the audience,
herself and us that the
song is a "HIT"!
Nellie knows a good song,
but lets the audience de-
cide; therefore, inasmuch
as the audience certified
that her new song IS A
"HIT", confirming her
opinion in selecting it,
and our judgment in
publishing it, we feel that
the indicator "IS" pointing
in the proper direction!
Copies in press!

This collection of 29
pieces for Violin, is re-
garded by violin teachers
and students, as being
universally
popular.
While it is an admirable
solo collection for any
violinist, it has been
made specially inviting to
those whose musical at-
tainments are moderate
by the fact that the violin
part is written entirely in
the first position. The
entire collection is care-
fully bowed and fingered.

Come to Thee" Rendered Effectively by
Evangelistic Chorus.
At the opening of the Evangelistic Committee of
Xew York City, held in Carnegie Hall on Tuesday
evening, April 2, a beautiful new sacred song, en-
titled "I Come to Thee," was rendered by the
Evangelistic Chorus of 500 voices under the lead-
ership of Prof. Benjamin F. Butts. The rendi-
tion of this splendid number was most impressive,
the blending of the voices delightful, and the very
soul of the singers was expressed in their tone.
The music of "I Come to Thee" is by Cora
Roma, the famous composer of church music, and
the poem is by George Graff, Jr., who possesses
an enviable reputation in his field. Witmarks pub-
lish the music.
