By
THKY R12 singing It on (lie battleships
and at the Philadelphia Navy Yard and
at many of tho encampments a new march
irg Eong which ha.i a lilt and a ginger tu
It, the mere hearing of which ought to
r.ako pacifists Into patriots and patriots
Into fighting devils.
"Our Sannneo Boys." nn army and nu
torching tons. Is the "bit" that WllUrU
Spenser has contributed In the mighty
1'rlve against the Hun. In his picturesque
home at St David's the famous author of
The I.lttle Tcoon," i'Prlncess Bonnie" and
"Miss Bob White" told me about the com
rosltlon of hW new martial air which H
n'leaily on tho lip t of the service men, and
to'pltr the fact that It was composed only
tl.ree weeks ago may he heard In the
tluaties and at the movies and will doubt
Urn become a Mrect familiar In a Miort
hlle
"It all came about as the result of a
conversation at tho Philadelphia Navy
Yard," the man who enjojM the distinction
of being the author of the first successful
eomle opera lo be written by an American
composer told me. "My son is an ensign
there and every day In a lod some ot the
officers have luncheon In a delightfully In
formal way They were good enough to
Invite me to one of them and there we dis
cussed the song- that the men In our nav
and army are singing.
D1TTIHS OL.D AND MKI.ANCIIOLY
"It was the consensus of opinion that
the majority of the songs now being sung
uero Inappropriate the relics of other
wars. Many of them aro melancholy, too,
like 'Old Black Joe.' One of the men re
membered that at the time of the Spanish
American War. Dewey's men had been fon.l
of a song, 'If You Would Be a Jackie, and
K-Salllng of tho Seas,' from 'Miss Bob
White '
"They called upon me to do my bit and
write a maichlng song. Later my son got
after me nnd said the men had been In
crnest and so I thought the matter over.
It seemed to me that If I could do a song
that had a 'lift,' a 'hurrah,' perhaps It
would be contributing my 'bit,' and so I
jot down to work. s
"From the very outset I liked the name
'Sammees' for our men and my Interest
was aroused when I learned that Henri
Bazln, the Evrnino I.rjDacn correspondent
In France, had coined It. It Is by far the
most appropriate, the most endearing term
that could have been chosen. It eliminates
the division of the North and the South, nnd
I understand that It Is popular with the
men, too
A "SINGABLK" SONG
"I decided then that. my song would be
to the Sammees. My Idea In composing
the music was not only to gle It the so
called 'pep,' but to keep It In the range of
the average voice. "The Star Spangled
Banner," for Instance, Is very Inspiring, but
few people can sing It well. It takes some
body like a Homer to do It Justice. I
wanted my bong to be the kind that every
one who had the desire to could sing.
"I don t know whether It Is a good song
or not," Mr. Spenser said modestly, "but
three bands are plnylng It at the navy yard,
and I understand," this he nddeC humor
ously, "that It empties Keith's Th'entre more
.aulckly than anything they've hud yet;
they use It there for that purpose. I am
told that the battleship bands have also
?aken it up"
He went to the piano to give me an Idea
of Its melody, which Is even more spirited
than Its woids.
More than thirty-live years ago this
flulet, unobtrusive man composed "The
Utile Tycoon," which, to the everlasting
resentment of Broadway, was brought out

M'LISS
at the Temple Theatre In Philadelphia
its songs still live. If you don't believe
this ask at the lnlon League about a little
dinner that was held there a few nights
ago In honor of the fiftieth blrthdav of n
well-known lumber merchant. Mr. Spenser
waw one of the guests Itallroad executives,
bankers and prominent business and pro
fessional men were present. Mr. Spenser
was one of the speakers. When he sat
down, tile table to a man broke. Into that
melody which was a favorite with our
fathers and mothers and with somo of our
grandparents: "Love Comes. I.lUe. a Sum
mer Sigh. Softly O'er Vs Steallnc' the hit
of "The Little Tcoon "
"It was tunny about the composition of
that song." Mr. Spenser told me, remi
niscing "I uas u young man on .1 fish
ing trip up In the Pocono Mountnlns They
hail tiled to make a doctor of me. but
music got tlie better of me I was thinking
of nn opera 1 was ulannlmr. Tho mni
was over the mountains thick and I was
standing under the Buck Hill Falls to get
some fresh, pure air It Is one of the love
liest spots you can Imagine. About eight
bars of this melody Moated Into my head.
I wrote them on some birch bark and took
them back to the little Inn where I was
stalng that was before the place was
f Mngulshed by large hotels.
'From -the notes that I had made at the
Falls I picked the melody out on the piano.
Outside of the window, the tune was taken
up Instantly by u whistling bo. I wan
amazed. 'If it can be whistled like that,'
I said to myself, 'the first time It has been
P'ayed, then It surely has the elements that
make for a popular tong In It.' Late
events pumil that I was not wrong. Ami
the boy who whistled the song was the
man whose birthday was celebrated at the
Union League tho other night."
PIT (H'AKKR MAIDS ON B'WAY
Wltlard Spenser was born In Coopers
town, New York, his mother being an In
timate friend of James Fenlmore Cooper's
daughters. But he Is a Phlladelphlau now,
he will tell ou, by reason of his mnrrlaht!
to Miss Claire Stackhoute, ot the ijuakcv
family of that name.
It was Spender who put tho Quaker
maid on Broadway, and his recounting of
that exploit Is a sidelight on the Insularity
of one of the most famous streets in tn.
world.
"A rong," ho said, "which proved to ho
one of the most catchy of 'Miss Bob White,
was 'Cute' Little Quaker Maids Are We.'
I was watching a rehearsal of the opera
In New York and Ben Teal, now dead, but
ir his day one of the most famous mana
gers and producers, was directing tho
chorus. It is my custom never to Inter
fere at rehearsals, but I always malic a
great many notes The way Teal put tho
chorus through lt.( paces amazed me. Herj
vere Quaker maids, dressed in their prim,
demure costumes, and he was making them
kick up their legs like Gayety girls.
"'What do jou think Quakers are like?'
I nsked him after the rehearsal.
"'Isn't that the way they ought to go'.'
ho questioned anxiously.
"He had never met a Quaker He thought
It was part of their religion to dapco a wild
sort of dance. When I told him that they
hardly dared raise their eyebrows, much
less their skirts he was astonished. He
did tho act over and It was a great hit."
The composer In whose operas Itaymond
Hitchcock roso from the obscurity or a
chorus man, than which there Is no more
obscure obscurity, to tho bright effulgence
ot stardom, Is at work on a now opera, at
the nature of which he would not even hint.
But patriotically, when the demand for a
pew marching song came along, he dropped
his work and produced "Our Sammee Boys."
Virtually every candy store In town tins
boosted the price ten cents a pound. AH
tho Ingredients for taffy and fudge have
Boared, and even popcorn has done Its worst.

slon, however, which formed In Pardee Hall,
under tho marshalshlp of Prof. O. M.
Graves. In the pioper academic order the
piocesslon moved Into tho auditorium for

Lafayetto had been to tho college.
"It l not always safe to name instltu
tlons after living men," be said, "anil even
the names ot dead men have sometimes
proved a burden rather than a blessing. But
not so with L.ifa.vette. To America Lafay
ette will ever mean vouth, Illicit and un
swerving devotion There is no danger that
in a life so sincere and steadfast history
will ever uncover anything unworthy to
dim its luster Theio Is no danger that
tho Ideal of liberty which could sin vivo
the excesses of the French Revolution will
ever be out of place In the changed cir
cumstances ot the centuries."

The bishop expressed tho belief that tho
