I have sheet music for that song that dates 1907. It lists Vocalion 
30135, along with Edison 82204, Victor 35476, Columbia A5441 Brunswick 
35000. It also shows player rolls Vocalstyle 3048, Mel-O-Dee 3411 and 
Q.R.S. 1794.
It was a popular song. There is a MGM Metro Movietone Short with the 
Capitolians doing it and a performance later on by a black tenor. These 
would of course be much later.
