Jimmy Thornton wrote his song
When You Were Sweet Sixteen one
night after a spat with his wife, Bonnie
Thornton. Mrs. Thornton had reproach-
ed her husband for something he had
done and accused him of growing Cold
toward her
why, Bonnie he said, much sur
pr1sed, how can you say that? I love
you the same as when you were sweet
sixteen
''The title Of the song, My Sweetheart
the Man in the Moon, was suggested to
Thornton one night while riding on a
surface car. The sky was clear, and one
Of the passengers, a woman, looked out
of the window and peered at the moon

another of Thorntons compositions, was
written after Jimmy had witnessed a
scene on Sixth avenue. A woman who
, seemed to be quite young, but dissipated-
looking, was sitting in front of a SALOON
She was Intoxicated and noisy crowd
had gathered and jeered her and made
life miserable for her. Before police
man arrived a well-dressed old man
stepped into the crowd, and turning to a
tough-loo1ing fellow, who had been her
principal tormentor, said:
Why don't you leave the woman
alone? If she's unfortunate I'll bet she
may have seen better days.
ut did not take Thornton long to real
1ze that he had a good title, and a few
days afterward he sold the song for
tidy sum.

manuscripts. 1 consider Dresser very
original. He wrote The Pardon That

Tell Her That You Love Her. Take Me
Back to New York Town and The Blue

day Dresser met son of an old friend
in front Of the Morton house. in Union
square. He had known the young man
in village in the West, and was sur
prised to see the young fellow. The
young man was in Ill health and hard up
Well, said Dresser to the son of his
old friend, Tn going home to to-
morrow and if you have any message to
give to the old folks I will be very glad
to deliver it. What shall say?'
- Oh replied the young fellow, with g.
touch of pathos in his voice, just tell

looking we'll
''This was far from the truth, because
the young man was pale and looking i'll.
Dresser, after giving the fellow some
money, bade him good-by and the two
parted. Dresser then wrote the song,
using the same expression, Just tell
them that you saw me- He changed the
story around a bit and made the real
character a woman who had fallen. Paul
told me that the young man never lived
to return home, for he died few months
after the song was published. Dresser
wrote Here Lies an Actor after the
burial of the late John Mccullough, the
tragedian.
THE Sunshine Of Paradise Alley was
inspired mostly by accident Walter Ford
and John Bratton were walking west on
Market street, Philadelphia, one gloomy
day, trying to think Of some appropriate
title or text for song. Midway between
Sixth and Seventh streets Bratton sud-
denly paused and looked up at an old,
half-obliterated street sign on the SIDE of
a building.
There's an odd name for such q
dingy court, Paradise alley said Ford
Let's go up there; we might find some
material
Accordingly, the two sauntered up the
half block, and for squalor and poverty
it seemed that the limit had been reach

needed but one glance to show them that
she was the little mother Of some strug-
Cling family. she started back at see

1.-THE originator of cake walk music is
Fred Mills, who writes under the name OF
Kerry Mills. One night about six years
ago Mills attended a cakewalk in De-
troit. The leader Of the band, negro,
had considerable difficulty in keeping the
walkers in step. Mills, who was just
budding out as a composer, approached
the leader and said:
=" I notice that the walkers here tonight
can't keep i'll step. 1 composed a march
which L think will do. Try 1t. It's called
''Rastus on Parade
THE leader played 1t, and the effect
was magical. The contestants were able
to cake-walk around without much trou-
BILE to the time of the music. Although
the leader tried to ring in some other
music the darkies insisted on 'Rastus on
Parade and it at once became popular
Mills then composed Georgia Campmeet-
ing Happy Days in Dixie and 'Whis-
Ting Rufus. from which he made for

"John Kelly, who wrote and composed
The Girl 1 Left Behind got the idea
while starring with his company out
West years ago. One night the leading
soubrette of his show got into a row with
another member of the troupe and gave
notice to Kelly that she would leave.
Kelly was much worried, because he
could not get another woman at that time
to fill her place. Kelly pleaded with ner
to remain, but she refused and left the
next night. About two days later she
repented and came back. Kelly gave her
her old job, but planned at the same
time to get even. So at the next stand
he paid her what>was coming to her and
discharged her. Then gathering his entire
company together he said: See, that's

II could continue all night and tell you
about the history Of hundreds of other
popular songs, which would be equally
interesting. Dave Marion, who composed
only One Girl in the World for Me-,
says that he got the theme of this song
from reading the Bible. He says that
Adam said to Eve There's only one girl
in the world for me- guess Dave meant
to be funny, but he swears it is a SOL
emn fact. At any rate, the song was
the real thing whether the Bible inspired

Inc requests for an edition of this work
suitable for schools and colleges have
led to the preparation of the present
volume. The editor in doing this has re-
ceived the consent and assistance OF the
author and consequently we are sure that
1t has been done in the best way. The
book is intended for students who have
mad at least two years of thorough
preparatory work in grammar and text
reading, although it can be read with
pleasure and profit at an earlier stage.
Wilbrandt is today the accomplished
dramatist of the realistic school and
should be ranked among the classic

is undoubtedly one of the few real mas
