Noted Composer, Dies
Veteran Composer of Light Operas and Musical

Home of Daughter in Red Bank, N. J., in
Fifty-third Year
Alfred Baldwin Sloane, well known for thirty
years as a composer of light operas and musical
comedies, died February 21, in Red Bank, N. J.,
at the home of his daughter, Mrs. June H.

last Tuesday night. He was in his fifty-third

when he was twenty-three years old. He had
begun the study and writing of music in 1890.
His second production was "Jack and the Bean-

bread Man," "Tillie's Nightmare," "The Prince
of Bohemia," "The Summer Widowers," "The
Henpecks," "Hanky-Panky," "The Sun Dodg-
