Long List of Irish and Near-Irish
Music Offered, With Her
bert's "Eileen" Featured
By the Phonograph Editor
Victor Herbert has a strain of Getmanlc
blood tempering the lrl! exuberanco of
his musical character, but the overwhelm
ing predominance nf tho latter quality Is
what has given him his long voguo and
enabled him to writo always pleasantly and
sometimes delightfully So It Is no won
der that many of tho recent phonograph
catalogues havo accorded spaco to his op
eretta. "i:ileen "
Incidentally, let It not bo thought that tho
Teutonic part of tho composer's ethnnlogl
cal make-up enn be held against him He
Is. nfter all. more American than anything
else In his scores.
The Victor fompany has nn unusually
choice anil varied list ,of rclectlons from
"Cllecn." There Is, for example, n fitting
conjunction of personalities in John Mc
t'ormack's singing of "lJlleen Alnnna" and
the h.inie tenor's tendering of "Ireland My
Klrelantl " The latter is also offered by
Columbia, with Vernon Stiles as the vocal
artlbt. fin tho hack of thlH record Is "The
Irish Have n Great Day Tonight," also
recorded by Victor, an sung by Scott Welsh
with "Free Trade and a Misty Moon," sung
by Greek Uvans. on the reverse. Thero are
also gems from the musical play by the
Victor l,K,t Opera Company. These were
manufactured under the direction of the
composer.
A word or two more about the Irish and
their music Pome of this Is derivative
Samples of It are thn American Quartet's
recording of "Because You'ro Irish" and
George MocFarlane's singing of "What an
Irishman Means by 'Machree.'" Both are

Celtic things. "You Don't Hnvo to Come

have Just been discharged from that Insti

street has been neither sprinkled nor swept.
Last week an Inspector chanced to be In
the neighborhood. Mrs. Mary Jordan, who
notified the Hvenino Ledoeii of the city's
neglect, sent word to him to Investigate con
ditions himself. This he refused to do, but
suld he would have the street cleaned.
This morning, while the Kvenino Ledger
representative wns Interviewing Mrs. Jor
dan, a street-cleaning wagon drove up and
shoveled up a great pile of dirt that has
been accumulotlng for weeks. The cleaner
scowled nt Mrs Jordan and told her that
where he lived "the people did not keep
the streets so dirty."
"It Is to be hoped that collections are
more frequent In your street," retorted Mrs.
Jordan. The street had not been sprinkled
before the dirt was removed. Mrs. Jordan
explained that every' morning she and her
neighbors throw buckets of water In the
street to settle tho dust.
"I have lived on this street since May
2B," she said, "and thl9 Is the first time
that a street cleaner has been near the
place."
Letters from nil parts of town have
heen sent to the Kvenino . Ledoer com
plaining of filth and neglect In alleys and
ureets.
A dead cat of four days' vintage reposes
In nn alley In tho rear of 930 Rodman
str-et. Both tho garbage man and the
street cleaner have spurned It, Doubtless
because neither of them are "college grad
uates." New Swedish Minister of Interior
