THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
51
THAT with the pass ng of Labor Day the new
season for the music publishers can be said fairly
to have begun.
THAT if expectations develop into realities, the
string of popular hits will probably break all rec-
ords.
THAT an actress in the role of manager is a
bad risk for the mus : c publisher, as the case of
Fritzi Scheff proves.
THAT if general and liberal advertising will
make a song, "Peg o' My Heart" (Feist) should
prove a wonder.
THAT between spasms of attacking ragtime
songs on general pr'nciples, the Chicago authori-
ties are said to have begun to condemn the aver-
age hymn as being foolish.
THAT the Broadway Music Corporation has
opened new offices in Boston.
THAT the Charles K. Harris song, "Don't You
Wish You Were Back Home Again?" is gaining
in popularity at a great rate as it grows older.
THAT when a composer has to spend money to
advert se his responsibility for the music of cer-
tain hits, honor seems to have become a forgotten
word.
THAT, according to the program, the old song
favorites of the days of Harrigan and Hart will
be featured during the forthcoming Mardi Gras
celebration at Coney Island.
THAT Rosamond Johnson, the clever composer,
was recently married in London, where he is ap-
pearing in the London Opera House Revue.
THAT, according to song pluggers recently re-
turned from Chicago, the proper course in that
city is to get an injunction against the police first,
and then start singing.
THAT even the librarians in that city have
caught the crusading fever.
AS NUTTY AS PEANUT BRITTLE
ISSUE NEW KRIENS WORKS.
'In Brittany" (En Bretagne) Suite for Piano
and Orchestra Just Published by M. Wit-
mark & Sons Is a Most Meritorious Work.
Among the latest Witniark publications "In lirit-
tany"' (En Bretagne), suite for piano, violin and
piano, orchestra, large and small, by Christians
Kriens, the gifted Dutch-American composer and
violinist, is a work to be highly commended.
The suite is in four parts, the titles of the sepa-
rate numbers as follows: "In St. Malo (A Saint
Malo), "Gavotte of Duchess Anne" (Gavotte de la
Duchess Anne), "The Strand at Parame" (Lage
Plage de Parame), "A Festival in Bretagne" (Fete
Bretonne), each showing a delightful mingling of
classic with popular characteristics. Many famous
organizations have already performed them with
gratifying success.
Mr. Kriens is one of the fortunate composers of
our times, and found general recognition from the
first, when prominent vocalists and instrumentalists
began to place his compositions on their programs.
His works reveal a deep, beautiful, poetic nature,
particularly in the lyric parts, although no glaring
faults are to be found in the dramatic force of his
works, as his well-known overture, "Les Rois in
Exile" (The Kings in Exile) and quartet for
strings in B flat major will testify.
"In Brittany'' (En Bretagne;, however, although
perhaps not quite so ambitions as the works above
mentioned, reveals great originality, character and
splendid technical powers, which speaks volumes
for the musical and artistic worth of this work.
M. Witmark & Sons are considering several new
manuscripts by this composer, with a view to early
publication.

WASHINGTON, D. C, August 'H.—President Wil-

of absence so that the famous organization may
make the fourth tour in its history. The trip will
last from September. 29 until November lo, and
will take in the New England States, New York,
Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia and Mary-

solicitation of the United States Senators repre-
senting these States. Previous lours of the noted

ized musicians, but the matter was ultimately ad-
justed harmoniously.
COLONEL GOETTING A CANDIDATE.
(Special to The Review.)
Col. A. H. Goetting, the well-known music jobber
of Springfield, Mass., and who has long held a
prominent place in political affairs in Massachu-
setts, has decided to be a candidate for the nomi-
nation for Lieutenant-Governor at the coming Re-
publican primaries. Col. Goetting was for a time
opposed by James F. Cavanagh, who later with-
drew and left the former a clear field.
