Edison Standard Records for June 10137 Brooke's Triumphal March United States Marine Band The first Edison Record made by Washington's famous band. We are indeed fortunate in being able to place at the command of owners of Edison Phonographs the music of this great band organization. A corps of Edison experts was sent to Washington for the sole purpose of having the Marine Band make a series of Records for us. Some of these were made for the shorter Edison Record, so that those who have not added an Amberol attachment to their machines may share in the work of the Marine Band. Composer, Roland F. Seitz. 10138 No One Knows Manuel Romain A sentimental song of much more than ordinary beauty, both in words and music. Mr. Romain never sang more expressively. This is loud praise, for his Edison Records have gained for him a world-wide popularity. Orchestra accompaniment. Music and words, Francis Mack; publishers, M. Witmark & Sons, New York. 10139 Did He Run? Edward Meeker A comic song, descriptive in the first verse of what happened when a pack of firecrackers was tied to lazy Pete Green, and in the second verse of how a milkman entered his horse at Sheepshead Bay and was winning handily until someone shouted "Milk." Orchestra accompaniment. Music, Albert Von Tilzer; words, Junie McCree ; publishers, New York Music Co., New York. 10140 Chinese March — Kwang Hsu Edison Concert Band A characteristic march, in which the instrumental effects reflect the style and character of the music of the Chinese Empire. Composer, Paul Lincke; publishers, Jos. W. Stern & Co., New York. 10141 Bandy Legs Ada Jones A "kid" waltz song similar to "Smarty" (our Record No. 9872) and with an equally catchy air. The words relate the woes of a little girl in short dresses whose lower limbs are not as perfect in form as they might be. She was teased night and day by her playmates calling her "bandy legs." Miss Jones gives the words the right kind of "kid" interpretation. Orchestra accompaniment. Music and words, John B. Lowitz; publishers, Trebuhs Publishing Co., New York. 10142 He Will Hold Me Fast Anthony and Harrison A sacred selection that attracted much attention at the revival meetings in Boston, January, 1909, conducted by the Rev. J. Wilbur Chapman. It was there sung with great success by Evangelist Alexander. The fact that Anthony & Harrison make the Record of the song stamps it as an artistic performance. Orchestra accompaniment. Music, Robert Harkness; words, Ada R. Habershon; publishers, Fleming PI. Revell Co., New York. 10143 Trans-Mag-Ni-Fi-Can-Ban-Dam-U-Al-I-Ty Billy Murray A new coon song by the same composer as "He's a Cousin of Mine" (our Record No. 9412) and "Common Sense" (our Record No. 9886). The title is the word that puzzled Ephraim Jackson Brown to spell. Orchestra accompaniment. Music, Chris. Smith ; words, James Burris; publishers, Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York. 10144 The Jolly Clowns American Symphony Orchestra A characteristic composition by the writer of "Mosquito's Parade" (our Record No. 7503) and "Mouse and the Clock" (our Record No. 9434). It includes effective parts for the bassoon and oboe. The laughing of the jolly clowns is a feature. Composer, Howard Whitney; publishers, M. Witmark & Sons, New York.
