SONGS THEY MADE FAMOUS.
Mrs. Davis "oh, Promise Me-" and
Miss Maddern's ain the Cleaning"

Mrs. Davis "oh, Promise Me-" and
Miss Madderns "ln the Cleaning"
Few singers of our day become so
indelibly identified with a popular
song as was the case with the late
Jessie Bartlett Davis in Reginald De
Koyen's "Oh, Promise Me-" says the
New York Sun. 1t is the song of all
others by which the memory of this
splendid singer will be kept green
Many singers have added 1t to their
repertoire with more or less success,
but none of them has succeeded in
singing it with the pathos and feeling
which Mrs. Davis brought to her rem
dering. Contrary to the general inn
preston, "Oh, Promise Me" was not
in the original score of robin Hood :
and when subsequently it was insert
ed, the song was tenor solo, intend
ed to be sung by Mr.. Tom Karl. The
song in that setting was not success
full and just as they were about to
abandon it Mrs. Davis, who was bit
terly bemoaning the fact that her own
number was not stronger, suggested
that they should change the key and
see what her contralto notes could dc
for "Oh, Promise Me-" The expert
ment was an enormous success, and
"Oh, Promise Me" from that time on
enjoyed a vogue which has not beer
equaled by any sentimental ballad
since the days of 'In the Cleaning"
Speaking Of I'm the Cleaning" re
calls the fact that, after all, in the
course of years a singer and her most
successful song may cease to be iden
tilted with each other. Of all the
thousands who recognize and admire
Mrs. Minnie Madden Fiske as bril-
liant actress, how many remember
that she as Minnie Maddern in cap
rice" first sang "In the Gloaming?'
For years she was almost as complete
ly identified with this song as Mrs
Davis was with "Oh, Promise Me-
And yet how many theater-goers o.
to-day are even cognizant of the fac
that Mrs. Fiske was ever a singer?
