Grand Duke’s Visit
The rest of the country really began to take part in this city’s famous season of fun in 1872 when, to adequately honor the official visit of the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, the now immortal Mistick Krewe of Rex was organized. Fantastic floats and gorgeously costumed mummers, with band after band after band, paraded before the reviewing stand and New Orleans knew that never again would they be without this daylight celebration, with everybody participating. On that day the Royal Family of Carnival gained a nation as its loyal subjects and the city of New Orleans as its capital. It was also on that.day that the official Mardi Gras song “If Ever I Cease to Love” was spontaneously started. The parade arrangers had discovered that the grand duke was especially fond of this number in the musical show “Bluebeard,” which was then playing in New || Orleans. Duke's Favorite Song
It had a catchy tune and words: “It ever 1 cease to love, if ever I cease to love, May little dogs wag their tails in front, If ever I cease to love, May oysters have legs. and cows lay eggs, If ever I cease to love.” The chorus of the show had al-
