Some yoars ago when Rollin Howard com- posed a song and dance, he took hls production, of which he felt very proud, to Pond & Co., and cffered to soll it to them. They looked it over and returned it with the romark: ‘We do not publish such stuoff as that.' Mr, Howard pocketed his discomfiture In tilence and madly wended his way homeward, A short time after this Howard went to Bostou, where he was engaged to sing in a minstrel company. Onsnight Mr. C. A, White, the com- poser and publisher, heard Howard and oftered to publish his discarded song. This is how ‘Shoo Fly, Don't Bodder Me’ ¢1mo to see the light, 1t 80on became popularall over the land The publisher sold over 200,000 copies, and with the profits established the woll known firm of White, Smith & Co. A song is popular when it catcLes the public fancy, and the best songs seldom become popular.” ““How do you account for this?" “‘Well, the popular mind ta not odu- cated euough for them. Mauny per- sons have what they call an ear for mueie, but have no knowledge of music. They bave no speclal training in order to appreciate the general baan- tles of a first-class song, or the five, delicate shades of expression that are the very soul of the plece. The bal- ad, or comio ditty, is sbout the ex- JOBBER OF “Just now, ‘Wait Till the Olonds Roll By, Jenny,’ by H. J. Falmer, AND will continue to sell for some time. Cloee on the heels of this plece comes sn_answer to it—‘The Clouds Are Rolling By, Jenny,’ by Maylath, & much superior scng in every way, and likely to be as popular. Then we have ‘In the Morning by the Bright Light,’ by James A. Bland, the colored song writer, and the belt of his kind. All his pleces have become popular, and include ‘Keep Dem Gates Wide Open,’ ‘Won't We Have a Jolly Time,’ ‘Oh, Dem Golden Slippers,’ and ‘Da Angels Am a-Oom. ing,’ Another piece that is likely to become popular is ‘Peek-a-boo,’ v sung during the week in ‘Friend and B Foe' at the Windsor Theatre by Wil- . » ANDSPORT I NG G 0 /VEB llam Scanlan.

Many editions only reach 5.000, and some do not run beyond 500 noplau. There may not appear to be any value te a song until 1t goes brlora the public If they catch on, then the value of the song is assured. Many good pleces--real gems of song —have been published by Pond, whizh do not go beyond th studio Among this_class oalled: ‘Say Not My With Thne, written by Albert Rowse, When Harrigan ‘and Hart sold the ‘Mulligan Gaards' for ‘$50 they didnot expept that it would marchto the tune ,000 uoplz, Tl}g ,Hlld’ezbnndt ng they sold for $26, an lhhag v’orkcd off 200, (KS ‘Who are the leading composera?” ¢ You mean of this class of musici Well, many of oyr most popular songs have been written by authors on the other side of the water., Our home names are Harrison Millard, Will 8, an 00 o8 ev: ing ire firsv-class OlguP y ofleeo Mh ‘ tore, Cigavs from, $16 per 1007 1pwards Send for Price List and 'Samples CHERRY GROVE FARM.
