The general topic In mu3lc olrcUs today in Hear* Watterson, the man who says llttlo and docs much. One hear* rumors as to what will finally become of the Napoleon of tho music game, hut listen brethren. Henry is one of the shrewdest men In the game to- day, knowing the Ins and outs of the busi- ness and seeming to know what to do at the right minute. Look back a few years and recall the Irving .Berlin story. Watterson took a chance with tuts young fellow after every publisher In the business shook his head. Did Watterson make good? He la also credited with being one of the few pub- lishers who are holding up his price, and Is elBO putting through a deal that If It turns out, will be the greatest benefit that the mi- ale business has over had. A great many of the wise ones (?) are figuring how mnch he 1b IobIhr per week with the different houses he controls, While none of them have produced whirlwinds, every one of them have produced. Jerome & Schwartz! had "One In a Million ;'• Maurice Abrahams: put over "Pullman Porters;" Kal- mer 4 Puck goes merrily along with "Where Did You Get That Glrll" and the Harry Williams concern turned out "You're the fiamo Old Girl." Not so bad. after all, la It? _ . Just keep your eye on this fellow. He Is going to make music history or I miss by guess. TOM PBNPOLD WITH BARRY WILLIAMS. An Important change took place last week la the resignation of Tom Penfold, who was Sencral manager for Jerome A Schwartz lutlc Co.

Although of the high class na- ture, It Is adapted for any kind of a singer. It Is a beautiful number and will undoubted- ly prove a very successful ono for Mr. Car- roll. A BBW SONG UOONTlClt. The management of the Casino Theatre, In New York, Inst week put one over on the music publisher* In the way of n novel ad- vertising scheme.

"Yon Did, Yon Know Yon DM," Is the title of a new song Just put out by the P. A ■Mills publishing house, and If opinions count for anything It will be ona of tho biggest hits these clever boys have ever composed. A. H. Goettlng, one of the largest wholcsalo music dealers In the business, on bearing the new number, promptly offered P. A. Mills ten thousand dollars for It, which, of course, Mr. Mills declined, The song has a melody that Is hard to set away from, being a typical Mnlr kind. The lyrics by Gilbert are of the usual high stand- ard variety that this writer Is known to turn out KURBKA COUNTED OCT I Tho Eureka Music CoTjrnany. who started In the music publishing gamo several month* •go, with a handsome suite of offices, on Forty-fifth 8treot, have evidently found the Rphig too strong.

HARRY VON TII.ZKR'S MASTERPIECE. "Last Nlebt Was the End of the World," the latest ballad by that famous writer of IiKh, Harry Von Tllicr, Is without question one of the most successful ballads In the past twenty-five years. The number la heard on every vaudeville program, In demanded la cabarets, and la hummed and whistled in every town la tho country. The nong Is creatine; a record In sales for this style of number, and will most likely sell more copies than any song ever published, as It Is one of those steady sellers. Harry claims it is the best ballad he ever wrote, and as he seldom pasioa judgment on nls own numbers It is a good tip for per- formers who haven't already featured this mnaterplece to Iobc no time In putting this number on.
