MUSICA F EMONJH
A French paper says that a manuscript discov-
ered in Strassburg proves that the national hymn
called the "Marseillaise" has scant resemblance to
the tune written down (not composed) by Rouget
de 1'Isle. The air was itself a revival of the old
war song of the Army of the Rhine, sung by the
soldiers of Louis XIV.
AUSTRIA'S MANY DANCE TUNES.
Probably no other country has so large a num-
ber of popular dance tunes as Austria. Lower
Austria alone will be represented by 7,000 such
tunes in the monumental work, "Das Volkslied in
Oesterreich," now being issued under the auspiecs
of' the Austrian Kulturministerrum, and which is
attracting great attention.
The latest of the song writers to seek honors
and incidentally the dollars in vaudeville are Leo
Edwards, of the Chas. K. Harris staff, and •-a Miss
Parker, who have secured a number of weeks on
the big time and will sing the various song suc-
cesses written and composed by Leo Edwards and
Blanche Merrill, including "Bring Back My Bon-
nie to Me" and "Bye and Bye."
Joseph Howard, who with Mabel McCann has
been winning success in vaudeville in the East,
opened in Winnipeg on Monday.and will tour the
coast over the Orpheum circuit. He is singing
his own songs, all of which are published by
Chas. K. Harris.
WORKING ON NEW PRODUCTION.
Earl Carroll, who furnished the English ver-
sion for Caruso's ballad hit, "Dreams of Long
Ago," is collaborating with Lee Orean Smith in
furnishing the words and music for a new musi-
cal comedy entitled "Diori O'Dare," which will
be sent over the Weber circuit. The production
will open in Kansas City on September 2 with
Bernard Daly 'in the principal role.
