Il is the Fashion for Popular Songs 70 Be
Sentimental

There are fashions in everything
even popular songs, said well known
musical man to the writer yesterday.
"Just now it is the fashion for popular
songs to be sentimental. The song
which has no love in it will never add
much to the owners bank account.
The love must be unconditional. The
love song of the present time deals with
a girl who has run away from home, or
a man who has been successful biga-
mist. Occasionally it is the woman
who tries to play the double marriage
trick, as instanced in Those Wedding
Bells Shall not Ring Out. A Shrek of
woe, a glittering blade, a lurch. flash.
dart"
The average song leans rather to
bigamy and the lost woman idea. Just
Tell Them That You Saw Me" together
with the newer song brought out, "If
They Write That I'm Forgiven I'll go
Home" are the fine instances of this
type of song. Just Tell Them That
You Saw Me-" will be nothing to the
Forgiven song according to the music

will also serve to illustrate a popular

| The fad for songs which deal with the
shady side of morals and city life is
distinctly attributable to the books of
| the day-The Paradise Alley song led
off with this idea, now there are songs
| about Poverty Flat" Poverty Row" "
Poverty Alley" "IIogan's Alley" 1.-The
Pride of the Alley" and countless
others like them, all telling about sim

fad, and it is prettier than most of

also leads one to suppose that the
heroine was of the poor -but honest
order. "Darky'' music. both instru-
mental and vocal, is the reigning fad
of the hour.
The old regular and monotonous
''tum-tum' of the supposed banjo has
been sub-planted by syncopated, or. in
darky parlance, rag time, and the
harmonies are much better than the
old. MY Gal is a High Born Lady is
the newest popular addition to negro
songs.

Mora closed weeks engagement at
Menonian hall, Saturday evening. by
presenting, with her artists, the play,
"Rhody." A large audience was present
and every single minute of the evening
was enjoyed by all. The play was one
of those in which there are many hair
breadth escapes from death and several
exciting encounters. Mora, as usual,
was in her element, and played the part
of Rhody, Just grown up like a flower,
to the Queens taste. Neil Twomey as
Clarence Vernon, lone of natures noble
men," was simply great. while Fred
Williams as Snack, playing the part
of a colored man, was fine.
The four pickaninies in their pie eat
ing contest were received with APP

the young colored men We're received
with favor.

Heroine was presented to fair-sized

Gorton's MinstreIs.

The above minstrel company will ap-
pear at Meonian hall, Thursday, Nov.
10. This is the first appearance in Au-
gusta of the well known minstrel or
ganization. For the past score of
years or more nearly every minstrel
name of note has sprung from Gorton' s
company. they obtained their first
chance and schooling in his early COM
panies. Every corner of America, big
or little, has been visited at some time
or other during his 40 years of almost
constant travel. From an instrumental
musical point of view Gorton's per-
formance is. and always has been the
minstrel show of them all, both on the
street with his famed Gold Band and
Organ. Perfect instrumental music,
under the direction of the composer, is
one of the features with Gorton's com
pany His music somehow or other in
stantiy calls to mind the vision of q
crowded theatre, fiaring lights. palm
trees, pickannnies, soft shoe dancing,
pastime on the levee, the suffering,
uproarously funny end man, all the
good old features Of genuine old time
