In fact it seems as If all the well known dancing experts, and, hundreds of others. And this tango .Oho one that is best suited to their work. Carter De Haven and wife. Flora Parker, are featuring two extremely pretty and dainty songs, published by the Penn Musi- Co., entitled "Everything Is Different Nowa- days" and "There Is Nothing, Dear, I Would- n't Do for You," botb written by the well known team of song writers, Messrs. Buck and Stamper, who at present are furnishing most of the big feature numbers for Zleg- feld'B "Follies of 1014." The balled, "Tho Rose of My Breams," Is gaining favor and popularity each month, and ia a sterling number for all ballad ■Inters and acts.

In spite of the general cry of bad times, poor business, etc., it is doubly gratifying to note tho remarkable business enjoyed by the Hungarian operetta, "Sari," now In its fifth month at the New Amsterdam Theatre. A Sroductlon of real artistic merit like "Sari" oes not suffer when other unmusical and trashy attractions are affected by general adverse conditions.- Not In years has there been a musical play so highly spoken of by the general public, and such numbers as "Love's Own Sweet Song," "Hazazaa," "Faithful Stradivari," "Love Has Wings," are operatic gems which will live for many, many years. ... . Mlzzl Uajos. the youthful, magnetic star, has coron into her own and Is achieving the triumph of her career. H. W. Savage has given the play a superb setting; in fact, every detail of the production has been given the most careful and artistic consideration. More shows like."Sari" would put musical comedies back into the same favor In this country that they enjoyed before the. worth- less, hodge-podge masquerading under this came was foisted on the public. _ All or. the "Sari" music is published by J. W. Stern * Co. . THEODORE HORSE SAYINGS.

Is a now number published by Waterson, Ber- lin & Snyder, that Chief Waterson thinks should clean up. MAtRICE RICHMOND NOTES. From all indications "Ho Was Always Fooling Around," by Billy Jerome and Aimer Urccnbcrg, looks like one of tho biggest bits ?ubllshed7 this season. Thcro isn't a subject bat Billy Jerome hasn't touched upon In writing extra verses and choruses. Italian, Adam and Eve, baseball, New York City, Mcxlcnn, Rip Van Winkle, automobile, a mule, etc. In fact each verse is funnier than the other. Looks like Billy will be kept busy writing extra verses and choruses for the rest of bis life on this number, for every act that has put It on reports it Ib a riot, and in- variably writes, "we must have more verses." Montgomery and Moore, at the Palace, this week stopped tho show with this song, and- Charles Evans Is featuring this number with the Lambs' Gambol. Jack Norworth bad thorn roaring at the Colonial, while Stuart Barnes, at the Or- pheum, Brooklyn, created more talk with tWa number than any song In bis repertoire.

Wo could mention a great many more acts who are singing this great "clown" souk, but space does not permit. Already every- body in tho music business, as well as In tho profession, Is talking about this remarkablo number. - "Ho Was Alw. ys Fooling Around" Is tho first "clown" song ever published.
