MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
MREVILWflEARS
THAT if the plans of the music publishers for
1914 materialize there are going to be some eye-
opening developments before January 31.
THAT the chief trouble seems to be that the
infallible hit picker has failed to appear.
THAT as the picker of real song success Phil.
Kornheiser, professional manager for Leo Feist,
Inc., is close to being in a class by himself.
THAT a glance over the numbers that the Feist
house has "put over" during the past couple of
years will prove that the reputation is not founded
upon air.
THAT The Alan on the Street recently met a
young lady singer who declared that she did not
sing popular "stuff" in her vaudeville act, and was
willing to pay for the rights to a song that suited
her.
THAT after being assured that the young lady
was in her right senses the only answer seemed
to be that the millennium was approaching.
THAT Billy Lang, New England representative
for Leo Feist, Inc., with offices in Boston, was a
visitor to the Feist headquarters in New York
this week, full of enthusiasm regarding the man-
ner in which "things were breaking" for the Feist
hits Down East.
THAT it will probably be too late when certain
young song writers learn that a reputation as a
"booze fighter" and sport is not conducive to in-
creased ability.
THAT there is apparently one Subject that the
popular music publishers agree upon, and that is
that Harry Von Tilzer holds the record for turn-
ing out song hits one after another.
THAT, in view of the comparatively few changes
at the first of the year, the royalty checks must
have been of satisfying proportions.
THAT the retail store of Jerome H. Remick &
Co. has been moved from 101 to 127 Yonge street.
Toronto, Can.
A NEW SAVAGE PRODUCTION.
"Sari," the English Adaptation of an Hunga-
rian Operetta, to Be Presented in New York.
Henry W. Savage will make his first production
of the 'New York season at the Liberty Theater
on Tuesday night, January 13, he announced yester-
day, when he will bring in the musical comedy,
"Sari," which is an English adaptation of the
Hungarian operetta, "Der Zigeunerprimas." The
play was presented in Atlantic City on Christmas
night. It will be in Baltimore this week before
the New York premiere. In the cast are Misses
Mizzi Hajos, recently seen in "Her Little High-
ness ;" Blanche Duffield, Harry Davenport, Hum-
bird Duffey, Charles Meakin and Wilmuth Merkyl.
The Lefly department store, which opened in
Milwaukee, Wis., last March, has filed a petition
in bankruptcy. The sheet music department of the
store was owned by M. Witmark & Sons, of New
York. The stock is now being sold.
Wolf Wortis, a* Russian composer of religious
music, died on Saturday of paralysis at his home,
4 Hope street, Brooklyn, aged eighty-five years.
SOLD!!!
We take pleasure in an-
nouncing to the Music Dealers
of the World that Mr. Oliver
Morosco, the Los Angeles
producer and owner of "Peg
0' My Heart", has purchased
the exclusive production
rights of
"DREAMING"
the most sensational waltz
ballad ever offered to the
public.
Miss Kitty Gordon is sing-
ing it in her new starring
vehicle
"PRETTY MRS. SMITH"
which is playing in Los
Angeles now and which comes
to New York within several
months.
LEO. FEIST, Inc., - NEW YORK
BUYS RIGHTS TO "DREAMING."
Oliver Morosco Secures Exclusive Production
Rights to Earl Carroll's Latest Ballad—To Be
Featured by Kitty Gordon.
Oliver Morosco, the prominent theatrical man-
ager and producer of Los Angeles, Cal., and who
has brought several successes to the East, has
purchased from Earl Carroll, the exclusive pro-
duction rights of his latest song, "Dreaming," the
music of which is by Archibald Joyce and which
is published by Leo Feist, Inc. The song will be
featured by Miss Kitty Gordon in Morosco's latest
production, "Pretty Miss Smith," now playing in
Los Angeles, and which will be (brought to New
York soon. Mr. Morosco is said to have paid
$1,000 for the production rights to "Dreaming,"
and thought the matter of sufficient importance to
warrant his advertising the fact in the theatrical
papers.
You Won't Believe It, But
after we had seen so much obscene, we tore the "rags"
from "Ragtime," then plucked the "sick" from
"Classic" and knocked a different kind of "sick" out
of "Music"—the result was FIVE OLD-FASHIONED,
GOOD SONGS—Retail, 10 cents.
Then we "Whooped her up" into regular "seven-
come-eleven time" and what we have to show for that
is a folio of SIXTEEN real, live, GENUINE COL-
LEGE SONGS—In folio, retail, 50 cents.
Ask about them. Ask to see them.
