40 YEARS ItiE SIANDAND.
Love Me, My Dear" The song is written
in a very popular style, having waltz
refrain chorus. The accompaniment Is
especially worthy of notice. 1t is written
in the most artistic style, but at the same
time not very difficult of execution,
thereby insuring its popularity. Both
the words and music are original with the
writer. Mr.. Conroy has quite reputa-
ton in the east as writer of piano mu-
sic, having composed a number of very
artistic pieces. The most noteworthy
among them being his "Maid of the Mist
Mazourka," published by Kunkel Bros
St. Louis, in 1892; "Only Thine" ga
Vote, sentimental, published by Arcade
Music Company, Terre Haute, Indiana.
This piece is Rnsidered by the author, as
we'll as by those persons who have either
had the pleasure of hearing or playing
the same, as one of his best efforts; al
though it is of very easy grade, 1T 10
very artlstically written. His "Silvery
Cascade" polka, has also proved to be
one of the best ordinary concert pieces,
being of brilliant and sparkling style.
Mr.. Conroy has officiated as organist in
several churches in the east and has also
somewhat of reputation as composer
of church music.
