LON HEALY’S NEW SONG.

‘lt \\ as Only a Golden Leaf that Fell,” l s Name of New Song Likely to Prove Popular. Lonzo Healy, who has already ga.ned quite a little note as a composer of popular songs, has just completed the writing of a new waltz song, which appears destined to prove more popular than any he has composed heretofore. The title of the new song is ;, It Was Only a Golden Leaf That Fell,” and the chorus runs thus: It was only a golden leaf that fell | One Indian Summer day. It fell to the earth so cold and bare,! To fade and die away. For the love of the sunbeam cold had grown. The southern breeze fore'er had flown, And there was the golden leaf that fell To fade and die away. Mr. Healy was ‘u Chicago this week and made arrangements wltn A. H. Goetting of Chicago. New York, Springfield, Mass., and Ontario, Canada, to handle the song and supply the trade. Both the words and music were written by Mr. Heahy and the song will be published by the H. S. Talbot Co., or Chicago. Lon’s many friends hope that the new song will prove very profitable to him.
