She created the title role in Puccini’s “Mme. Butterfly.” Her repertoire today was an aria from “Mme. Butterfly” “The Cry of Die Walkure” “Come Back to Erin” “Polly, the Cows are in the Corn” and “I Dwelt in Marble Halls.” A beautiful woman, possessed of a handsome figure, lovely gowns and with a voice superior to any ever on our stage she was a furore. The very best booking of the season and popular with all sorts of people, musical and otherwise. In one.
