A Soul Stirring High Class Ballad
At the Gate of the
Palace of Dreams
By SCHMID & BAER
Since he wrote " The Garden of
Roses" Mr. Schmid has never
equalled this new ballad. It is the
high class BALLAD HIT for the
year.

TO PRESENT^ "MANON LESCAUT"
THE EUROPEAN SUCCESS
Arrangement Made for Production of Opera by
Chicago Company.
Through an arrangement reached with the
Ricordis Italian music publishers the Chicago
Opera Company was able to announce the pro-
duction during the coming season of Puccini's
early work, "Manon Lescaut." Complications in-
volving the composer, the pub'ish'ers and opera
managers in this country prevented the presenta-
tion of certain of Puccini's works by the Chicago
Opera Company during a part of last season. It
is believed that as a result of the new truce all his
operas will again be available. "

"That Swaying Harmony"
By CHAS. K. HARRIS
You can order it from your nearest
jobber or direct from the Publisher.

This is without doubt
the - first high-grade col-
lection of standard dances
ever published and will
undoubtedly be much ap-
preciated by violinists,
not only because of the
superiority of its con-
tents, but also because
every number has been
especially arranged and
placed in the first posi-
tion, so that it is within
the grasp of the average
player. Price, violin and
piano, 75 cents.
ATTRACTIVE BOOK OF HYMNS.
Hinds, Noble & Eldredge have recently issued a
new book of "Hymns for Christian Worship" for
all denominations which has found much favor
in religious circles. The volume is handsomely
bound in real seal grain leather and sells at a
tempting price, considering the manner in which it
has been prepared.

If tlit' opinions of the various critics have any
weight in insuring the success of a mw production,
the career of "Tantalizing Tommy," the new mu-
sical comedy with book by Michael Morton and
Paul Gavault, lyrics by Adrian Ross and music
by Hugo Felix, which had its American premiere
at the Chicago Opera House, on Friday evening,
August 31 is already assured. Some of the press
opinions were in part as follows:
Record-Herald: The spirit of the music is es-
sentially blithe and untiring, and the expression
of that spirit, ddicate, nimble and sweet. Fully
half a dozen of the two-and-twenty songs of the
piece were cordially redemanded by an audience
that, though it was in no mood to prolong its
humid misery with meaningless encores, found the
dainty, fluent, tricky airs and the ingenious orches-
tration quite irresistible. There was, for example,
a bewitching trifle called "Fairy Be 1 .ls" that wafted
with music that was at once joyous and plaintive,
the music of a girl who gathered bluebells and
who-drew many pretty fancies from her armful of
flowers.
Inter-Ocean: The seductive qualities of Irish
stew were never suspected until Dr. Hugo Felix
descended upon us last night at the Chicago Opera
House with a translation of its esthetics into beau-
tiful tones. The introduction and opening chorus
of the first act, the songs, "You Don't Know,"
"Oh, Go Away," "Zizi," "Fairy Bells"—the very
best song of the evening, by the way, with its suc-
cessor, "Irish Stew,"—make up the roster of the
more favored numbers. There is not an un-
worthy page of music in the score, but these are
the choicest.
Daily Journal: He (Dr. Felix) is decidedly
felicitious in catching the spirit of the thing lie
would clothe in tune, and he has provided a score
of exceptional value.
The Daily News: Dr. Felix has written with a
glitter and a genuine musicianly elegance, and
originality and spirit that are perfectly irresistible.
Chicago Examiner: The' music of Dr. Hugo
Felix is real music.
Suffice it to say that the success of "Tantalizing
Tommy" at the opening so impressed the music
jobbers and retailers in Chicago that Chappell &
Co., the publishers of the music, were swamped
with orders by mail and telegraph on Tuesday of
this week, the first real working day since the pre-
miere. The overnight demand for the music has
broken all the records of the house.
