 PREPARING ANOTHER BOOK.

A Noted Townsman Writing a Work
 on Famous Musical Composers.
 Morris Steinert, the founder of the Steinert chain of music stores and do- nor to Yale of the famous collection of ancient musical instruments, has in his new role as an author achieved distinct success also The sale of his ''autobiog- raphy'' is so large as to surprise Mir. Steinert himself, the sale going far be- yond his utmost expectations. The book has received complimentary press mo- tices in all parts of the Union and some of the reviews in the New York papers have been quite extensive.
 MT. Steinert is now writing another book in fulfillment of long cherished plan. It treats of the famous compos- CTS of music and, to considerable ex- tent will deal with the various subjects in an analytical way, as viewed from MT. Steinerts standpoint as keen stu dent and devotee of the art musical for the greater part of his life. He expects to present cogent reasons in this book composers should be regarded as over- estimated as regards their alleged di- vine afflatus relative to the musical art. Mr Steinert says his idea is to become somewhat of an iconoelast as regards some names which he maintains are unduly worshipped as high priests at the Shrine of Euterpe.
