ONE OK TWO-STEP OR TANGO
THAT the plans for the production o,f several
new musical comedies and operettas, especially
those of foreign extraction, have already been well
developed.
THAT it is to be sincerely hoped that, for the
sakes of the music publishers and dealers, to say
nothing o.f the theatrical managers, a much larger
proportion of the new plays will meet with success
than has been the case for the past couple of
seasons.
THAT the present craze for dancing, with the
consequent demand for dance music of varied
character, has had a very apparent effect on the
sale of the average run o.f popular songs.
THAT the three publishing houses which have
secured space in the new Strand Theater Building,
Watterson, Berlin & Snyder, F. A. Mills & Co. and
the F. B. Haviland Music Co., are now busily en-
gaged in the work of moving.
THAT, with a scant half dozen exceptions, every
prominent music publishing house in New York is
no.w located in the district bounded by Forty-
second and Forty-seventh streets, near or on
Broadway.
THAT two song writers have announced their in-
tention to tour the wo,rld in an automobile and to
support themselves en route by writing, singing
and selling songs.
THAT a liberal letter of credit might be urged
as a most important part of the equipment of the
party in the event that things go wrong. The
roads are excellent in Europe but the walking
tireso.me.
THAT Earl Carroll and Anatol Friedland are re-
sponsible for the words and music, respectively, of
an attractive new waltz number of the better sort,
and which is expected to prove another "Isle
d'Amour" by the Feist staff.
THAT "Who Paid the Rent for Mrs. Rip Van
Winkle" (Feist) looks like one of those scarce
"almost natural" song hits.
THAT "They Think I'm Frivolous Because I'm
French" (Harris) is proving a strong feature in
"The Belle of Bond Street," as sung by Gaby
Deslys and Harry Pilcer.
"THE BEAUTY SHOP" ON BROADWAY.
Raymond Hitchcock the Star in Bright New
Musical Comedy Presented at the Astor
Theater for First Time on Monday Night.
Raymond Hitchco.ck, the ever-popular comedian,
returned to Broadway on Monday in "The Beauty.
Shop," a bright new musical comedy, with the
book by Channing Pollock and Rennold Wolf and
music by Charles J. Gebest. The new play is typic-
ally "Broadwayese," and its rollicking character
roused the enthusiasm of the audience at the Astor
Theater.
Obviously, Mr. Hitchcock was glad to be home,
and repeatedly he stepped over the footlights to
confide in the audience "franktinneyly" or interpo-
lated local gags. The authors themselves, had they
been present, would have laughed at lines they had
never heard before.

SUCCESS.
Kitty Gordon's new starring
vehicle,
"PRETTY MRS. SMITH"
has taken Boston by storm.
The "Cort" Theatre will be
crowded for some months and
"DREAMING,"
our international song waltz,
is the sensation of the show.
LEO. FEIST, Inc., - NEW YORK
Mr. Hitchcock was a beauty doctor besieged by-
creditors at the start, but the first act might have
happened anywhere, for the next found him in
Corsica, whither he had gone to collect an estate
bequeathed to his marriageable ward. Instead he
bumped into vendettas and o.ther troubles which
kept him busy till the final curtain.
The piece is replete with catchy musical numbers.
One of the prettiest is "Love's Hesitation," sung
and danced iby Miss Kosta and Mr. Herbert. Other
good ones are: "I Want to Look Like Lillian Rus-
sell," sung by Miss Orr and much enjoyed by Miss
Russell, who sat in the first row; "Co.me Along,
Little Girl, Come Along," a quartet; "When the
Creditor Comes to Call," by Mr. Hitchcock and the
male chorus; "I Love All the Boys in the World"
and "I Love You Just the Same," both by Miss
Sunshine; "The Sunshine Maxixe," by the same
pretty dancer and Mr. Herbert, and "My Tango
Queen." The score is published by Jerome H
Remick & Co.
DEMAND FOR THE^EGYPTIAN GLIDE"
E. T. Paull, head of the 1-:. T. I'aull Music Co.,
New York, reports a most satisfactory demand for
his latest publication, the "Egyptian (ilidc." b,-
Alexander Maloof, and arranged iby E. T. Paull.
The number has been prepared in both tan.no an 1
one-step arrangements, with the latter holding tlie
lead to a considerable extent in the matter of de-
mand.
The Cosmopolitan Music Co. was incorporated
this week with a capital of $10,000. II. Fluegel-
man, P. C. Stone, E. M. Bernstein, 299 Broadway,
are the interested parties.
