Second Edition—"The Musician"forMarch—

BOSTON,
(Special to The Review.)
MASS., March 1.—The
White-Smith
Music Co. reports that the Cadman piece, "A
Knighthood Song," already in its second edition,
and the fact that it is dedicated to David Bispham
has heen a notable factor in popularizing the piece
apart from its high merit as a musicianly compo-
sition. "O Moon Upon the Water" is a song
about to be published by this company. It also is
by Cadman, and much is expected of the piece.
Miss Ross's "Dawn in the Desert" continues to
meet with success, and one of those who lately has
been using it with marked favor is Frances Ingram,
of Chicago, whose contralto voice is admirably
suited to its range.
The March issue of The Musician contains a
notable article on "Arthur Hartmann, Violinist and
Thinker," accompanied by two portraits, written by
William Armstrong. Other timely articles are:
"Music in the Public Schools of Pittsburgh," by
Will Earhart; "Francois Couperin, the Watteau of
the Clavecin," by Frederick H. Martens; "How to
Study a Beethoven Sonata,'' by Constantin von
Sternberg; "The Working of the Mind in Piano
Practice," by Hans Schneider, and "The Art of
Fingering," by Harriette M. Brower. Fourteen
pieces of music are incorporated in the volume.
Business witli the Oliver Ditson Co. is reported
quite good, and the traveling men in the West and
South are finding a general improvement in condi-
tions.
"Bill" Small, of the B. F. Wood Music Co., who
is enjoying a trip through the West, was heard
from a day or so ago at Los Angeles, Cal. He
already had been to Seattle, Portland and, of
course, San Francisco, where he gave deep study
to the exposition. About now he is headed for
home, and is taking in on his return Denver, Salt
Lake City and other places. He is due in Boston
about March 20. The Wood Co. reports business
at its London branch as good considering con-
ditions abroad.
One of the interesting announcements this month
is that of the purchase by Walter Jacobs, of the
Cundy-Bettoney Mandolin Orchestra catalog,
which contains 100 or more selections, principally
standard numbers. Included also in the purchase
are the favorite "Bridal Rose" overture, Reeves'
"Second Connecticut March" and Jean Missud's
"Magnolia Serenade." This catalog, in the hands
of Mr. Jacobs, is sure to win hosts of new friends.
"The Mandarin," a novelty one-step, by Norman
Leigh, is about to be published by Jacobs. It is
STERLING
It's what is iftside of the Sterling that has made its rep«-
tation. Every detail of its construction receives thorough
attention from expert workmen—every material rsed in its
construction is the best—absolutely. That means a piano
of permanent excellence in every particular in which a
piano should excel. The dealer sees the connectio* between
these facts and the universal popularity of the Sterling.

Allen.
A real German feast is being planned by the
Get-Together Club of the Oliver Ditson Co., and
t probably will be called for Tuesday, March 9, at
Charlie Wirth's, in Essex street, one of the best
places of its kind in the city. The last session of
the Get-Together Club at the American House was
a most enjoyable affair, and there is every indica-
tion that this one will be even more so.
Charl.'s W. Thompson has seen quite an im-
irovement in business in the past month, and the
evidences are good, he thinks, for a continued
spring demand for music. Some of the C. W.
I hompson Co.'s latest publications are proving
most popular. Another budget of songs and in-
-.trumental numbers are on the press, to be issued
shortly bv this house.
DEATH OF WILLIAM PARQUETTE.
(Special to The Review.)
CHICAGO, March L—William Parquette, song
writer, author of "Dreams, Dreams, Dreams/'
"When the Golden Gates of Heaven" and other suc-
cesses, was found dead from gas in his room to-
day. An inquest was ordered.
Parquette came to Chicago seven months ago
from his home in Rochester, N. Y.
"SEVEN SONGS FROM OUT OF DOORS."
One of the recent artistic issues of the Oliver
Ditson Co., of Boston, is "Seven Songs from
Out-of-Doors." by Alberta L. Burton.
This
volume of songs, so artistically conceived with its
striking cover page, is designed for children big
and little, and should win a large measure of
popularity.
"Gay Revillon," or, "Maid of My Dreams," is
the title of a one-act operetta which will soon be
produced. The libretto and-lyrics are by Charles
Henry Dorr, and the music is by Adrian Schubert,
a 'cellist of the Metropolitan Opera Co.
beak Music Co., Inc., of Bristol, Tenn., and, in-
cluding the big pile of music in the center of the
window, there are over 5,000 copies of this one
piece on display. The Rosenblatt window attracted
much attention and added materially to the sales
of the song, which has also proven quite successful
in other directions.
SIXTY FOLK SONGS OF FRANCE.
A recent addition to the Musician's Library,
published by The Oliver Ditson Co., Boston, is
"Sixty Folk Songs of France, edited in a most
illuminating way by Julian Tiersot. This volume
is a very valuable addition to the library and will
greatly interest lovers of folk songs everywhere.
It is, as usual, admirably printed.
