THAT with publishers turning around and bring-
ing suit for song suppression the reformers may
find it wise not to be so busy.
THAT too much of the crusading has been based
upon the personal tastes and not upon the songs
themselves.
THAT there is a place in the Hall of Fame
Vv'aiting for the music publisher who is not work-
ing on a song that will prove "The hit of the
coming season."
THAT Jerome H. Remick, after a short stay at
New York headquarters, left this week for his sum-
mer home at Bass Rocks, Mass.
THAT Joe Kiets is rushing around with his roll
of samples these days as though selling music was
really his middle name.
THAT Chas. K. Harris says that a day as pro-
fessional manager in Mayer Cohen's absence is
to him like a cycle in Cathay, or words to that
effect.
THAT ballads appear to be considered a strong
business winner for fall.
THAT a publishing house in Forty-sixth street
has the name of the manager painted on a separ-
ate board and swung from the main business sign
of the company.
THAT the plan probably makes for convenience
in the matter of changing managers suddenly.
THAT it is about time for burglars to visit some
more of the music publishers and get their regu-
lar collections of stamps and candy.
THAT in the opinion of many members of the
trade the Atlantic City boardwalk has Broadway
breked up against the wall as a center for song
plugging.
THAT E. T. Paull sailed for Europe on Tuesday
of this week, in company with others of the First
Regiment "Minute Men," of which he is major.
The organization will act as guard of honor for
the "Deutscher Kameraden- und Patriotenbund
von Amerika," which will take part in the celebra-
tion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Kaiser Wil-
helm's reign, and then tour Germany.

PRAISE FOR CABARET.
Daughter of Bret Harte, a Singer of Ability,
Holds That Cabarets Offer the Artist an Ex-
cellent Oppportunity for Special Training.
Jessamy Bret Harte, daughter of the famous
story writer, is a dramatic soprano of talent who
does not disdain small stepping stones to the real-
ization of high musical ambitions. She sang re-
cently for a week in a cabaret show on Broadway,
New York, and says that she would not have
missed the experience for all the wealth of the
Indies. "The cabaret," Miss Harte told a New
York Mail reporter, "is not only the best possible
p 1 easure for the people, but it is the best test of the
singer. Get your cabaret audience to stop, look

DEPARTMENT STORE RAG.
Muffled strains of syncopated music came from
under the counter in a big department store and
reached the ears of the floor walker. He crept
closer and listened. Presently a fluffy head popped
up.
"That's a catchy little tune, isn't it?" he asked
graciously.
"But you should hear the words," she returned,
and she recited the following:
They fool and fool and fool around,
They fuss and fret and fume around,
But nary a cent they spend.
"It's too good without a name," he suggested.
"We have a name, all right. The girls at the
bargain counter call it the Department Store
Rag.'"
Victor Herbert is always in dread that some
singer will whistle his part in a new comic opera
during rehearsal instead of singing it. He thinks
it is an infallible jinx.
