In the field of song-writing some women have won fame, and from others a full measure of it appears to have been withheld. Notably is the later statement true in the case cf Clan Wreck, who became the wife of Robert Schumann. Before her mar- riage she had written a number of lovely songs. It seems hardly to be doubted that Schumann did net wel- come his gifted wife as a collaborator, or tliat credit for the works that made her husband's name immortal does not. in part, belong to her. Parsing over tee song writers of to- day, here is a list of some of the wo- men who won fame and success in the last century. Under the name of "C'.aribe!." Mrs. Charles Barnard of Dover. England, wrote many the rncsi fa sic MS of *:-.. . ;- "Come Back to Erin." Annie Fcr'.esque Harrison was the composer c'. "In The Gloaming," Mr; Charles Mou'tcn wrote "Beware" Dora Bland Jordan wrcte "The Blue Bells of Scotland." Liza Lehmanc was the composer of the lovely song- cycle "In a Persian Garden." Lastly, those haunting!? beautiful scngs, "\Vh*-.
